Abstract
A retainer is provided for holding a printed circuit card between spaced surfaces which comprises a plurality of wedge-shaped members mounted end-to-end on a rod, with at least select ones of those members being each urged in a corresponding transverse direction relating to the adjacent member upon effective shortening of the rod to hold the printed circuit card between the spaced surfaces. A spring is attached to each of the select members to bias those members each in a direction opposite the transverse direction for that member.
