Abstract

See full text

An wearable electronic connection assembly including a circuit board connected to a garment. The connector of the assembly has, from top to bottom, a tack pin having a head, a shank, and clinch attachment means with an undercut for receiving the cold flow of metal. The head of the pin passes through a hole in the circuit board and is in contact with a top surf ace of the circuit board. The shank of the pin extends farther downward through a layer of fabric beneath the circuit board. A ring is disposed beneath the fabric layer into which the tack pin is clinched forcing material of the ring into the undercut. A wire is attached to the ring which is electrically connected to the circuit board through its connection to the electrically-conductive pin.
