Abstract
Abstract An electric circuit apparatus comprises an electrically connecting member including a holding body made of an electrically insulating material and a plurality of electrically conductive members embedded in the holding body. First end portions of the electrically conductive member extend through a first side of the holding body and second end portions of the electrically conductive member extend through the other side of the holding body. A plurality of electric circuit components are connected to the second end portions of the electrically conductive members.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 9
Claim 1
Independent Claim
221 words
An electric circuit apparatus, comprising: an electrically connecting member including a holding body made of an electrically insulating material and a plurality of electrically conductive members embedded in said holding body, wherein first end portions of said electrically conductive members contain a first set of atoms and extend through one side of said holding body and second end portions of said electrically conductive members extend through the other side of said holding body; a holding member for holding a plurality of first electric circuit components containing a second set of atoms and being connected to said first end portions of said electrically conductive members; a base member for supporting at least one second electric circuit component connected to said second end portions of said electrically conductive members; and positioning means for positioning said electrically conductive member to said holding member and the second electric circuit, wherein the first electric circuit components and said first end portions are connected by contacting together the first and second sets of atoms, and said holding member and said base member are positioned with said electrically connecting member by inserting positioning projections provided at one of said holding member or said base member into holes provided at the other member, and by penetrating said positioning projections through a plurality of holes on said electrically connecting member.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
221 words
An electric circuit apparatus, comprising: an electrically connecting member including a holding body made of an electrically insulating material and a plurality of electrically conductive members embedded in said holding body, wherein first end portions of said electrically conductive members contain a first set of atoms and extend through one side of said holding body and second end portions of said electrically conductive members extend through the other side of said holding body; a holding member for holding a plurality of first electric circuit components containing a second set of atoms and being connected to said first end portions of said electrically conductive members; a base member for supporting at least one second electric circuit component connected to said second end portions of said electrically conductive members; and positioning means for positioning said electrically conductive member to said holding member and the second electric circuit, wherein the first electric circuit components and said first end portions are connected by contacting together the first and second sets of atoms, and said holding member and said base member are positioned with said electrically connecting member by inserting positioning projections provided at one of said holding member or said base member into holes provided at the other member, and by penetrating said positioning projections through a plurality of holes on said electrically connecting member.
