Abstract
The mechanism establishes electrical connection of two printed circuit boards of separate devices that form individual modules within a stackable module system. In order to achieve a simply constructed connection mechanism, the printed circuit boards respectively have centering or spring clips into which an adapter assembly is pluggable. The adapter assembly is thereby composed of two blade or spring clips firmly connected to one another via an adapter assembly printed circuit board, whereby the adapter assembly is surrounded by shielding covers firmly connected to one another. In the plugged condition, the adapter assemblies are conducted through housing openings in oppositely residing housing parts of the devices stacked above one another, whereby the outsides of the shielding covers contact the surrounding edges of the housing openings.
