Abstract
Repeatedly inserting electronic components into assemblies can cause substantial strain on human hands. Technicians who insert DIMM (dual inline memory modules) cards or similar components into motherboards hundreds-to-thousands of times daily can face a risk of fatigue or injury. This disclosure describes an ergonomic tool that enables safe and efficient insertion of electronic components such as DIMMs into their assemblies. The tool includes a groove to hold the DIMM or similar component. The obverse side of the groove is a flat, relatively wide surface that the technician can use to press down the DIMM. The wide surface area reduces the pressure that the technician needs to exert to seat the component, thereby reducing the risk of injury or fatigue.
