Abstract
An LED spacer assembly includes a housing having at least one first passageway which permits the insertion of an LED. The LED has leads which extend therefrom and pass through the first passageway of the housing. The housing also includes at least one second passageway which intersects the first passageway and includes an extended portion. The second passageway permits the insertion of a tool or forming die element for the purpose of holding the leads and forming a bent portion in the leads which extend into the extended portion of the second passageway. The positioning of the bent portion of the leads into the extended portion of the second passageway permits the stable retention of the LED on the housing. Additionally, by holding the leads during the bending of the same, stresses on the LED are minimized during the assembly process.
