A method of manufacturing a press-fit apparatus suitable for press-fitting multiple connectors to a circuit board is provided. A machine press head that is movable by a power supplier of the press-fit apparatus is provided. A universal press block is fixed to the machine press head to allow the universal press block to be movable with the machine press head. A locating block is fixed to the bottom plate of the universal press block, by inserting a locating fastener of the locating block into a locating hole. A press block is fixed to the locating block at a predetermined position suitable for press-fitting one of the connectors.

Manufacturing a press-fit apparatus

An apparatus and method for press-fitting a connector to a circuit board is provided. The apparatus has a universal press block fixedly connected to a machine press head. A bottom plate of the universal press block has multiple locating holes. A locating block is fixedly connected to the bottom plate. A press block is fixedly connected to the locating block at a predetermined position suitable for press-fitting the connector. The press block has a press block head, a press block body and a sensor provided between the head and the body. The press block head is movable to contact the connector to apply a pressing force to the connector. The sensor detects the pressing force and generates a signal indicative of the pressing force. The press block body receives the signal from the sensor and controls the movement of the press block head based on the signal.

Press-fit apparatus for connectors

A power adapter is provided for a computer including a power port and a housing defining an aperture. The power adapter includes a power head, a lock head disposed on the power head and a main housing including a body affixed to a security element, wiring for supplying power to the computer extending through the body to the power head and a lock system selectively actuatable with a key to orient the lock head in first and second orientations. The first orientation is characterized in that the power head is movable relative to the aperture for power head insertion into and removal from the power port. The second orientation is characterized in that the power head is immovable relative to the aperture.
