Abstract

The short circuit metal fitting 12 is made to realize such an arrangement that the distance from the contact position of the connection terminals 3 of the electronic circuit board 1 and the short circuit metal fitting 12 in the opening section of the short circuit metal fitting 12 to the contact position of the electronic circuit board 1 and the connector pin 11 of the card edge connector 10 is shorter than the length of the connection terminals 3 in a connection direction and longer than the distance from the contact position of the connector pin 11 and the connection terminals 3 to the back ends of the connection terminals 3 when the electronic circuit board 1 is completely inserted in the card edge connector 10. On this account, it is possible to provide a card edge connector connection jig and a card edge connector connection mechanism capable of preventing breakage of an electronic device etc. due to transient current generated at the time of connection between the electronic circuit board and the card edge connector.
