Fasteners for surface mounting of printed circuit board components

TLDR
In this article, a fastener is provided for mounting a heat sink to the surface of a circuit board, which includes a body having structure extending from the body for engaging the heat sink.
Abstract
A fastener is provided for mounting a heat sink to the surface of a circuit board. The fastener includes a body having structure extending from the body for engaging the heat sink. The body further includes structure extending in a direction opposite the engaging structure for contacting the surface of the circuit board. The contacting structure includes a surface parallel to the surface of the circuit board and is coated with a solder-promoting material for surface mounting the heat sink to the circuit board.
