Abstract

A device for at least two electronic components disposed opposite each other and on each side of the same connection board by application of pressure. At least one small clamping column is arranged to be slid into an opening provided in the connection board, and to receive, at each of its ends, a spring which causes a resilient bracing force to be exerted on a bearing plate in the direction of the connection board. Clamping abutments serve to clamp the clamping column to the connection board. Each clamping column is disposed on each side of the connection board, and spaced from each other by a distance strictly greater than the thickness of the board so as to provide between the board and the abutments a clearance for balancing the retaining force between the two bearing plates.
