Abstract: In a plating method for mounting a tubular workpiece having openings at both ends in an axial direction thereof on a power feeding clip and immersing the tubular workpiece in a circulated plating solution to plate the tubular workpiece, the mounting of the tubular workpiece on the power feeding clip is performed by inserting the power feeding clip into the tubular workpiece from one of the openings of the tubular workpiece. The power feeding clip is configured by a folded metal plate, and includes a plurality of elastic contact pieces that can elastically contact the inner surface of the tubular workpiece to hold the tubular workpiece and supply power to the tubular workpiece, and a restraining part that is located inside the tubular workpiece and restrains flow of the plating solution in the axial direction.

Abstract: A wireless connector for wirelessly transmitting a to-be-transmitted target that is electric power and/or information, has a first unit and a second unit removably attached from the outside of a first object and a second object, respectively. The first unit includes a first transmission/reception part for wirelessly transmitting the to-be-transmitted target; and a first housing to which a first connector part for transmitting the to-be-transmitted target to/from the first object by being attached to the first object is fixed. The second unit includes a second transmission/reception part for wirelessly transmitting the to-be-transmitted target to/from the first transmission/reception part; and a second housing to which a second connector part for transmitting the to-be-transmitted target to/from the second object by being attached to the second object is fixed.

Abstract: A module is composed of a terminal that is attached to a cable and an insulator that accommodates the terminal. The insulator includes two spring pieces and two protrusions that are formed on the two respective spring pieces. A housing has through holes on mutually opposed positions on respective side walls surrounding an accommodation space. The module is accommodated in the accommodation space in a manner such that the two protrusions thereof are fitted from an inside into the respective through holes. A hood is composed of two split bodies. The hood can be fixed on the housing in a manner such that projecting portions of the split bodies are fitted from an outside into the respective through holes and the two split bodies are coupled to each other with a coupling means.

Abstract: A connector assembly comprises a connector and a mating connector mateable with each other. The mating connector comprises a mating lock member having a mating lock portion. The connector comprises a holding member and a lock member. The holding member has a holding portion and a stop portion. The lock member has a held portion and a lock portion. The held portion is held by the holding portion. The lock portion is located below the mating lock portion and faces the mating lock portion in the upper-lower direction under the mated state. The coupling portion has an abutment portion. When the lock portion is moved toward the held portion in the first horizontal direction in accordance with removal of the connector from the mating connector, the abutment portion is brought into abutment with the stop portion so that a movement of the lock portion is restricted.

Abstract: A shield-type connector includes: an inner shell made of metal and provided in an inner housing; an outer shell made of metal and provided in an outer housing; and a cover shell made of metal and contacting with both of the inner shell and the outer shell, in which the inner shell, the outer shell and the cover shell include contact portions that contact with each other, and the contact portion of the cover shell is inserted between the contact portion of the inner shell and the contact portion of the outer shell.

Abstract: An antenna is configured to be soldered on a circuit board. The antenna comprises a main portion, at least one soldering terminal and at least one fixed portion. The main portion has a height in a vertical direction. The main portion is, at least in part, positioned below the soldering terminal in the vertical direction when the soldering terminal is soldered on the circuit board. The soldering terminal extends from the main portion along a horizontal plane perpendicular to the vertical direction. When the soldering terminal is soldered on the circuit board, the fixed portion is fixed on the circuit board at a location different from a location of the soldering terminal.
