Abstract
A pressing unit 9 pressing the back surface of a flexible circuit board 8 having a case and a plurality of plate-like pressing members 23 which are accommodated in the case while being superposed on each other. Each pressing member 23 has a base portion 23a, a pressing portion 23b, and a spring portion 23c integrally connecting them. The pressing portion 23b is extended along a direction of arrangement of connecting terminals 4 arranged on electric components. The pressing member 23 presses the back surface of the flexible circuit board 8 by utilizing the elasticity of the spring portion 23c, and therefore can bring the connecting terminals 4 of the electric components and connecting terminals 11 of the flexible circuit board 8 into contact with each other by a generally equal contact pressure.
