Patent number: 10008791Abstract: An adapter assembly is used to attach a module having a mating interposed portion to an attachment member having a mating fixing portion. The adapter assembly comprises a main member having a fixed portion and an interposed portion, a fixing member, a first interposing member having a first interposing portion and a second interposing member having a rotation stopper and a second interposing portion. When the module is attached to the attachment member, the fixed portion is interposed and fixed between the fixing member and the mating fixing portion, and the mating interposed portion is interposed and held between the interposed portion pressed by the first interposing portion and the second interposing portion. During the attachment process of the module, the rotation stopper prevents the second interposing member from being rotated relative to the module.Type: GrantFiled: December 20, 2017Date of Patent: June 26, 2018Assignees: JAPAN AVIATION ELECTRONICS INDUSTRY, LIMITED, JAE TAIWAN, LTD.Inventors: Toshio Masumoto, Masayuki Katayanagi

Patent number: 9136646Abstract: A connector is selectably mateable with a first mating connector and a second mating connector. The first mating connector has a first interface and two lock portions. The second mating connector has a second interface. The connector comprises a shell. The shell has a standard portion, a modified portion and two coupling portions. The standard portion corresponds to both the first interface and the second interface. The modified portion and the coupling portions correspond not to the first interface but to the second interface. The modified portion is apart from the standard portion in an up-down direction. The coupling portion couples the standard portion and the modified portion. The shell is formed with two lock holes. The lock hole extends from the standard portion to the coupling portion. The lock holes receive the lock portions when the connector is mated with the first mating connector.Type: GrantFiled: November 14, 2013Date of Patent: September 15, 2015Assignee: Japan Aviation Electronics Industry, LimitedInventors: Takeharu Naito, Yoshifumi Kubota, Toshio Masumoto

Patent number: 7500877Abstract: A shell covering a housing has a shell body portion and a first and a second joining portion joining both ends of the shell body portion to each other. The first joining portion has a projecting portion projecting from a first end portion of the shell body portion and a recessed portion formed at a second end portion of the shell body portion and engaging with the projecting portion. The second joining portion has a first overlapping portion and a second overlapping portion that are overlapped with each other. The first overlapping portion is part of the first end portion and the second overlapping portion is part of the second end portion. An opening is formed at the first overlapping portion and a caulking portion is formed at the second overlapping portion. The opening and the caulking portion engage with each other by caulking the caulking portion.Type: GrantFiled: November 16, 2007Date of Patent: March 10, 2009Assignee: Japan Aviation Electronics Industry, LimitedInventors: Toshio Masumoto, Kan Ozawa, Minoru Urano, Fumio Yaguchi

Patent number: 7435107Abstract: In a connector adapted to be connected to a mating object in a first direction, a plurality of contacts arranged in a second direction intersecting the first direction. Each of the contacts includes a contacting portion to be contacted with a mating object and an intermediate portion between the contacting portion and a terminal portion. The contacts includes a plurality of paired signal contacts and a plurality of ground contacts. A combination of the paired signal contacts in one of the rows and the ground contact in the other row forms a first set. A combination of the paired signal contacts in the other row and the ground contact in the one row forms a second set. Adjacent ones of the intermediate portions in the first and the second sets are shifted in position from each other in the first direction.Type: GrantFiled: February 20, 2007Date of Patent: October 14, 2008Assignee: Japan Aviation Electronics Industry, LimitedInventors: Toshio Masumoto, Kazuhiro Fujino, Yukiko Sato
