SUBSTRATE CONNECTION DEVICE

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To obtain a substrate connection device that easily and surely connects a substrate in which a plurality of operation elements and a plurality of connecting terminal parts are installed and another substrate in which a plurality of contact members coupled with a control circuit part to carry out driving control about the operation elements are installed without using a connector for substrate connection. SOLUTION: The device includes a first substrate 11 in which a plurality of thin type light-emitting elements 13 and a plurality of connecting terminal parts 14 coupled with them are installed, a second substrate 12 in which a plurality of contact spring members 16 to carry out connection to the control circuit part against the thin type light-emitting elements 13 are installed, and a support mechanism in which the first and the second substrates 11, 12 are positioned. After the second substrate 12 is positioned in the support mechanism, when the first substrate 11 is positioned in the support mechanism, what corresponds to one of the plurality of contact spring members 16 installed at the second substrate 12 abuts on each of the plurality of the connecting terminal parts 14 installed at the first substrate 11, and the first and the second substrates 11, 12 are interconnected.
