Abstract
High pressure jackscrew connectors for removably attaching a first component to a second component having an internally threaded member. One preferred embodiment described includes a panel mount member which is attached to the first component to be joined. When attached to the first component, the panel mount member retains an internally threaded ejector member. A pressure inserter member having a longitudinally extending externally threaded portion engages with the internal threads of the ejector member and the internal threaded member of the second component to pull the ejector member towards the pressure inserter member and push the first component towards the second component upon rotation of the pressure inserter member. These high pressure jackscrew connectors are suitable for use in removably attaching printed circuit boards, particularly those utilizing high-density connectors which generally require greater insertion and extraction forces, and other components in and to electrical apparatus enclosures, chassis and other structural members.
