Abstract: The present invention aims to provide an electric connector which makes it possible to connect easily, hard to separate and enables to maintain good electric connections. The electric connector of the present invention comprises plural contacts 30 each including a contact point 31 contacting each of the plural terminals and an elastic arm part contiguous to the contact 31 and a housing 40 including a reception recess 41 retaining the one end of the circuit board, and attachment recesses 42 for attaching each of the plural contacts, a cover part 43 being laid down toward a direction of insertion of the circuit board, and a pressure part 44 being contiguous to the cover part 43 and being rotatably disposed opposite to the plural contacts 31, wherein the pressure part 44 protrudes into the reception recess 41 as the cover part 43 is laid down.

Abstract: An electronic connector terminal and its method of formation comprising a terminal base material 2 formed from a thin metal plate including and a high cost metal plating layer 17, which covers the terminal base material 2. The terminal base material 2 is preferably formed by punching from the thin plate and includes an outer peripheral edge or lateral part 4 having at least one contact 6, and planer parts 5 defined by front and back surfaces of the punched-out piece. The high cost metal plating layer 17 on the planer parts 5 has a lesser thickness than the thickness of a high cost metal plating layer 17 on the lateral part 4.

Abstract: The present invention provides an electronic connector terminal. The electronic connector terminal according to the present invention comprises a terminal base material 2 which is formed by punching a thin metal plate and an Au plating layer 17 which covers the terminal base material 2. The terminal base material 2 is defined by a cut surface of the thin plate through punching and comprises a lateral part 4 having at least one contact 6, planer parts 5 defined by front and back faces of a punched-out piece. An Au plate layer 17 on the planer parts 5 has the thickness being thinner than the thickness of an Au plate layer 17 on the lateral part 4 having at least one contact 6.

Abstract: An input element is used to make inputs to a computer having a touch-pad responsive to changes of static capacity. The input element has a conductive pad contact part which contacts in face-to-face manner to the touch-pad. The pad contact part is pivotally connected to a grip part so that the contact face always makes the contact face contacted to a surface of the touch-pad. Also provided is an input method using the aforementioned input element.

Abstract: The present invention provides a socket 10 which has a housing 20 having a slot 22 for receiving one edge 13 of a daughter board 11 on which terminal portions 12 are mounted, and contacts provided within the slot and pressed against respective terminals of the daughter board 11. From both sides of the housing, latches 31 extend toward the opening direction of the slot. When the daughter board is pressed down against the urging force of the contacts, the latches engage with both side edges 16 of the daughter board. At the position shifted from the center of the edge of the daughter board toward either side edge, a notch 14 is provided, and at the corresponding position of the slot of the housing, a projection for positioning to be fitted in the notch is formed, and at least one side of the projection for positioning, an elastic member 40 for pressing it against the inner side wall of the notch of the daughter board is provided.

Abstract: An electrical connector having a housing with electrical part-receiving slots at both sides of the housing, to each of which each of two pieces of electrical parts would be inserted so that the both faces of the electrical parts would be reverse to each other. On the inner walls of the electrical part-receiving slots of the housing, retaining grooves are formed in a predetermined distance, and each retaining groove is provided with a common terminal which is connected to a wiring common to the two pieces of the electrical parts, a first independent terminal and a second independent terminal which are connected to different wirings for each electrical part. According to this electrical connector, not only two pieces of electrical parts can be inserted, but also wirings common to the electrical parts can be connected all together to a packaging board and the height of installation on the packaging board can be suppressed low.
