Abstract
A circuit board housing assembly includes a housing; a circuit board having an opening attached to the housing; and a board removal tool having a holding member, a rivet and a pin. The holding member has an aperture corresponding to the opening and the rivet is inserted in the opening and the aperture. The rivet has a head with a proximal end and a distal end and a central axis, the head has an internal passage extending parallel to the central axis from the proximal end to the distal end, and the distal end is mechanically connected to legs extending distally from the head and having an internal surface facing the central axis. When the pin is inserted into the internal passage along a direction from the proximal end towards the distal end, the pin applies force to the internal surface of the at least two legs in a direction perpendicular to the central axis.
