Abstract: A connector device includes a first connector and a second connector. A first regulating member attached to the first insulating housing of the first connector and a second regulating member attached to the second insulating housing of the second connector include projecting portions, respectively. A first projecting portion of either one of the first and second regulating members provides a second projecting portion of the other regulating member with a first elastic force acting in a first direction in which the first and second insulating housings separate from each other. Additionally, the first projecting portion provides the second projecting portion with a second elastic force acting in a second direction in which the first and second insulating housings move toward each other. The regulating members also form latch members that act to separate the connectors towards a placed or initial state (e.g., FIGS.

Abstract: A receptacle connector is mounted on a board and is to be connected to a plug connector. An insulative housing is to be fitted to a housing of the plug connector. A plurality of electrically conductive contacts is arranged on the housing and connected to terminals (ground terminal and signal terminal) on the board, and are to be connected to electrically conductive contacts of the fitted plug connector. Among the plurality of contacts, at least one of a first contact and a second contact is configured so that the position at which the contact is in contact with a terminal (signal terminal or ground terminal) on the board can be adjusted, the first contact being connected to the signal terminal on the board, and the second contact being connected to the ground terminal on the board.

Abstract: An inner support member, a detection deformable body, and a ring-shaped outer support member are disposed sequentially from the inside to the outside around a Z axis as a central axis. Inner surfaces in the vicinity of inner support points of the detection deformable body connect to outer surfaces of the inner support member via inner connecting members, and outer surfaces in the vicinity of outer support points of the detection deformable body connect to inner surfaces of the outer support member via outer connecting members. When a torque acts in the clockwise direction on the outer support member (130) while the inner support member is fixed, detection parts are displaced outwardly, and detection parts are displaced inwardly. These displacements are detected electrically as changes in capacitance values of four capacitor elements including opposing electrodes.

Abstract: An electrical connector including a housing, first and second conductive contacts arranged on the housing, and an actuator provided to be rotatable for taking up first and second stations selectively and to have a pressing portion for pressing down a flat circuit device put partially in the housing to contacting portions of the first and second conductive contacts, wherein the actuator has an engaging portion and a projecting portion, the first conductive contact has a supporting portion for engaging with the engaging portion of the actuator so as to support the actuator, and the second conductive contact has a stopper portion for engaging with the projecting portion of the actuator so as to prevent the projecting portion from shifting in a direction opposite to an insertion direction along which the flat circuit device is inserted into the housing to be put partially in the same.

Abstract: A press-fit terminal comprises a contact member making contact with an electrode of a through-hole via penetrating a circuit substrate. The contact member comprises multiple contact pieces making contact with the electrode of the through-hole via, a junction part supporting the multiple contact pieces together, and a fixing part fixed to a main piece of a pin part and supporting the junction part via a flexible part.
