  • Patent number: 9167698
    Abstract: A surface mount clip including: a solder joint part in which a lower surface thereof is to be a solder joint surface to be soldered and connected to a conductor pattern on a printed circuit board. A pair of support parts are connected to the solder joint part and, when the solder joint part is soldered and connected to the printed circuit board, are supported in a position above the printed circuit board at an interval between the pair of support parts. The interval allows a conductive member, other than the printed circuit board, to be inserted therein. A resilient contact part, that is connected at least to one of the pair of support parts, is resiliently deformed and pressed by the conductive member, when the conductive member is inserted between the pair of support parts, and electrically connects the conductor pattern and the conductive member.

  • Publication number: 20150222035
    Abstract: A contact member has a first flat-plate portion, a pair of leg portions, a second flat-plate portion, and a projection portion. The pair of leg portions extends from opposite ends of the first flat-plate portion along a first orientation in a direction intersecting with the first flat-plate portion. The second flat-plate portion is connected to a projecting end of the leg portion. The projection portion extends from an end of the first flat-plate portion on a first direction side of a second orientation, which intersects with the first orientation, to the same direction as the direction where the leg portion extends. The projection portion is bent in a second direction of the second orientation to pass through the space between the pair of leg portions, thereby projecting in the second direction of the second orientation. The projection portion is provided with a protruding portion that expands along the first orientation.

  • Publication number: 20140326499
    Abstract: A frequency range and an attenuation amount of noise to be eliminated change depending upon to which one of two regions of side frames of a bottom serving as a ground conductor surface first, second and third capacitors are connected. Even if impedance of a ferrite core, the shape of a casing, capacitances of the capacitors, and the like are constant, a noise elimination characteristic changes by changing positions of the first to third capacitors. As a result, components including the ferrite core are commonalized and the noise elimination characteristic is easily adjusted in spite of characteristics of electrical equipment.
