The present disclosure relates to a structure for electrically-connecting an external conductor. The structure comprises a wiring-substrate comprising a stack based arrangement of a plurality of layers, wherein said layers are defined as electrically conducting layers and insulating layer. A rivet is supported from the wiring substrate and comprises an embedded portion within the wiring substrate. The embedded portion comprises: an upper section extending through the stack of the plurality of layers, and, a bottom section extending laterally with reference to the upper section. A portion protruding from wiring substrate is provided for receiving an external-conductor and for thereby electrically connecting with the wiring substrate.

A method and system for increasing damping capacity in a mechanical fastener by utilizing dry friction between individual wires of a sheathed rope is disclosed. For metal fasteners, the sheathed rope is inserted loosely into a thick-walled metal tube. The tube is then rolled to reduce the tube diameter, thereby uniformly embedding the rope into the tube material. The tube is then subjected to either cold or hot forming. After forming, the fastener blank may be threaded. For composite or plastic fasteners, the sheathed rope includes insert locators attached to the sheathing. The sheathed rope having the insert locators is placed in the mold cavity prior to the polymerizable material being injected into the mold. Regardless of the embodiment, the resulting fastener has increased damping due to the dry inter-wire friction within the embedded rope which develops between the surfaces of individual wires upon dynamic loading of a fastened joint.

An LED light source module comprises a double-sided circuit board and two rivets electrically connected to both sides of the double-sided circuit board. The rivet includes a nail head, a shank, and a transition section connecting the nail head and the shank. The length of the nail head in a section along the thickness direction of the circuit substrate is greater than the width of the shank, and the transition section is a trapezoid. The short side of the trapezoid is connected to the shank, and the length of the long side of the trapezoid is smaller than the length of the nail head. The nail head is connected to the first wiring layout, and the shank is electrically connected to the second wire pattern by soldering tin. The first and second wiring layouts are electrically connected by the rivet, and the copper plating process with more serious pollution is not used, thereby reducing the cost of pollution control, and the circuit substrate of the lower-level material can be used, and further the competitiveness of the lamp having the LED light source module can be improved.

A forged rivet for joining dissimilar materials includes a disc-shaped head and a shank. The shank includes: a first shank portion extending from the head; a ring-shaped protruding portion that protrudes outward at the lip of the first shank portion; and a second shank portion, the cross-sectional area of which is smaller than the first shank portion and which extends further in the direction of the tip from the protruding portion. On the surfaces of the shank and the head, surfaces that contact a light alloy material when the rivet is driven into the light alloy material, a coating film with a higher electrical resistance than steel is formed.
