  • Patent number: 11189962
    Abstract: A cable connector includes a soft body. The soft body has at least one connecting portion. An outer wall surface of the connecting portion is provided with a hard casing. The soft body is made of a soft material, such as rubber and silicone rubber. The hard casing is made of a hard material, such as plastic, and has higher rigidity than the soft body. When a bushing of a cable is inserted into the connecting groove of the connecting portion, the hard casing is configured to resist deformation, so that the connecting portion will not be deformed by insertion of the bushing, thereby improving the electrical connection between the cable connector and the bushing.

  • Patent number: 9209540
    Abstract: Board-to-board connectors that may provide a durable and reliable connection, save board space, may be easy to manufacture, and may be simple to use during device assembly. One example may include a receptacle including a number of contacts forming electrical connections with traces or planes in or on a printed circuit board. A boss may be included as part of the receptacle and the boss may be connected to the printed circuit board. An insert may be mated to the receptacle. Contacts in the insert may form electrical connections with traces or planes in a second or flexible circuit board. A cowling may be placed over the flexible circuit board to act as a stiffener. A fastener, such as a screw, may be placed through openings in the cowling, second or flexible circuit board, and insert, and into the boss.
