Abstract: The present invention provides a connector that has high contact reliability and versatility enabling the reliable electric connection of flexible printed boards with a spread in thickness and flexible printed boards with different thicknesses. In this connector, a wider portion of a connection terminal fixed to a base is lifted with a control lever in which rotatable shafts extending coaxially from end surfaces on both sides are rotatably supported on the base. In particular, bearing grooves extending in the vertical direction are provided at a pair of support clasps that are attached to respective end surfaces on both sides of the base. The rotary shafts of the control lever are mated with, and supported by, the bearing grooves rotatably and slidably in the vertical direction.

Abstract: An ultrathin connector that is easy to assemble has a base in which a plurality of positioning concavities are provided side by side in a lower surface thereof, connection terminals having a shape obtained by bending a needle-like metal material in two and joining it under pressure, these connection terminals being positioned in the positioning concavities so that two free end portion project from the base, a pressure-sensitive adhesive tape that is pasted on, and integrated with, the lower surface of the base and fixes the connection terminals to the base, and a control lever in which a pair of rotary shafts that protrude coaxially from the end surfaces on both sides are rotatably supported on the base and which lifts wider portions of the connection terminals.

Abstract: A connector connection terminal that is less likely to buckle and in which cutting task is facilitated is provided. The present invention provides a connector connection terminal in which substantial height dimension from a rotation recess to an end face at an end on a rear surface side is set larger than a substantial height dimension from the rotation recess to an end face at an end on the front surface side, and an upper surface from the rotation recess to the end face at the end on the rear surface side is a flat surface.

Abstract: A connector in which a connection terminal is not pushed out from a housing even if an operation lever is mistakenly and excessively rotated is provided. When an operation lever is rotated for opening, a contact portion of the operation lever rides on a position regulating surface of a base before an upper surface of the operation lever contacts an edge of an upper surface on a rear surface side of the base, so that the operation lever is lifted upward.

Abstract: An aspect of the present invention provides an electrical connector in which assembly of a connecting terminal is easily confirmed, a variation in support strength is not generated, and contact reliability is enhanced. In the electrical connector, a first insertion hole and a second insertion hole are made on the same straight line in both side faces facing each other in a base, a support contact piece of a first connecting terminal and a second connecting terminal are laterally inserted into the first insertion hole and the second insertion hole respectively, and an operation lever is rotatably attached to a side face on one side of the base while a front end portion of an FPC is inserted from an opening formed in a side face on the other side of the base.

Abstract: A connector includes a base mounted with connecting terminals at a predetermined pitch and an operating lever turnably supported on the base. The operating lever presses and connects a tip end portion of a flexible printed circuit board against and to fixed contacts of the connecting terminals. Mounting protrusions provided to opposite end portions of the operating lever are moved along first slide faces, tapered faces, and second slide faces. The faces are formed in an uninterrupted manner on upper end faces of partition walls provided to opposite side end portions of the base. Turning shaft portions coaxially provided in an interrupted manner to remaining one side edge portion of the operating lever push up elastic finger portions of the connecting terminals. The turning shaft portions are turnably fitted in bearing recessed portions formed at the elastic finger portions.

Abstract: The present invention provides a space-saving rotary structure for relaying signals which can relay a large number of signal lines without causing a disconnection of the signal lines. The rotary structure for relaying signals comprising a fixed frame which is supported and fixed in the inside of first and second casings, a rotary sleeve which is rotatably inserted into a through hole of the fixed frame and has a distal end thereof projected to the outside of the first and the second casing, a rotary frame which is arranged outside the first and second casings and is fixed to the distal end of the rotary sleeve such that the rotary frame is integrally rotatable with the rotary sleeve, and a flexible printed wiring film which has a distal end thereof pulled out to the outside of the first and second casings along the rotary sleeve and is wound around a winding tongue of the rotary sleeve which is positioned in the inside of the first and the second casings.
