Abstract
A simplified method of and apparatus for mounting an electronic part such as a transistor on a circuit board. Two or more selected ones of terminals of an electronic part are angularly bent in prior, and when the electronic part is to be mounted on a circuit board, the terminals are forcibly inserted into through-holes of the circuit board to an extent wherein bent portions of the terminals are projected below the circuit board. As a result, if a weak force is applied to pull the part off, the bent portions of the terminals will frictionally engage with edges of the through-holes to prevent the part from being removed from the board.
