Abstract: To provide a connector wherein ground terminals can be designed easily, which not only suppresses the occurrence of impedance mismatch and crosstalk, but which does not lead to interferences between contacting portions. A ground terminal for a connector has a cylindrical main body. A plurality of contacting portions, for contacting a circuit board, are formed on the bottom edge of the cylindrical main body. The ground terminal has, as contacting portions, inner contacting portions and outer contacting portions. The inner contacting portions extend toward the inside of the cylindrical main body and in the downward direction, and the outer contacting portions extend toward the inside of the cylindrical main body and in the downward direction.

Abstract: In a cable assembly, when auxiliary ground conductor is provided so as to face the lower surface of supporting insulating member, elastically-deformed piece in an elastically deformed status comes in contact with the tip of ground terminal protruding from the lower surface of supporting insulating member.

Abstract: A circuit element is arranged on an organic substrate and connected to a wiring pattern arranged on the organic substrate. An internal connection electrode is formed on a conductive support body by electroforming so as to obtain a unitary block of the internal connection electrode and the support body. Each end of each of the internal connection electrodes connected into a unitary block by the support body is connected to the wiring pattern. After the circuit element is sealed by resin, the support body is peeled off, so as to obtain individual internal connection electrodes separately and the other end of each of the internal connection electrodes is used as an external connection electrode on the front surface while the external connection electrode on the rear surface is connected to the wiring pattern.

Abstract: Each of the signal terminal and the ground terminal includes a first extending portion extending toward its tip end, and a second extending portion extending in a direction opposite to the first extending portion. The first extending portion is formed such that a width thereof is smaller than a width of the second extending portion. The housing includes a first housing into which the first extending portions are inserted, and a second housing into which the second extending portions are inserted. The second housing is formed separately from the first housing, and the first housing includes a wall portion located between the first extending portion of the signal terminal and the first extending portion of the ground terminal.

Abstract: A connector includes a first terminal. The first terminal includes a movable portion, and the movable portion has, on its tip side, a contact portion located on a course C of a case assembly. Further, the first terminal includes a fixed portion restricted from moving and located on a base side of the movable portion. The movable portion is elastically deformable to incline toward a side surface of an insertion hole while using the fixed portion as a fixed point. Further, the movable portion includes a hit portion between the contact portion and the fixed portion. The hit portion is located apart from the side surface of the insertion hole, and the hit portion is provided capable of hitting, midway during inclining of the movable portion toward the side surface of the insertion hole, against the side surface of the insertion hole.

Abstract: The connector includes an enclosure including insertion holes formed therein, into which tip end portions of coaxial cables provided with signal terminals and with ground terminals arranged at parts of peripheries of the signal terminals are inserted, and auxiliary ground conductors, which are retained by the enclosure, are electrically connected to the ground terminals, and are arranged at other parts of the peripheries of the signal terminals.

Abstract: A lighting apparatus is provided with: a light-emitting unit, a heat spreader in heat-conductive contact with the light-emitting unit that diffuses the heat conducted from the light-emitting unit, heat pipes with one end in heat-conductive contact with the heat spreader that transport heat to their other end, and a lower row of cooling fins and upper row of cooling fins that are in heat-conductive contact with the other ends of the heat pipes, and that radiate the heat conducted from the heat pipes into the environment.

Abstract: A connector includes a signal terminal, an insulating member, a ground terminal and an enclosure. The signal terminal has a main body extending in one direction, and a contact arm provided on each side of the main body for contacting another conductor. The insulating member encloses the main body. The ground terminal has a cylindrical main body enclosing the insulating member, and a contact arm provided on each side of the cylindrical main body for contacting another conductor. The cylindrical main body includes first and second semi-cylindrical parts, each having semi cylindrical shapes. The semi-cylindrical parts make a cylindrical shape as a whole by both end parts of the circumferential direction being assembled so as to mutually overlap. An insertion hole is formed in the enclosure where an assembly of the signal element, the insulating member and the ground terminal are inserted.

Abstract: A ground terminal has a cylindrical main body. A signal terminal has a terminal main body that is disposed on the inside of the cylindrical main body, and a connecting plate portion that extends from an end portion of the terminal main body. Additionally, a ground terminal has at least three connecting plate portions that are disposed so as to encompass the connecting plate portion of the ground terminal, each extending from mutually different positions on an edge of the cylindrical main body.

Abstract: An edge connector is disclosed, having a configuration in which board contacting portions of terminals coming into contact with both ends of the board are displaced, an overall spring portion of each terminal applying an biasing force to the board contacting portions are displaced, and the surface of a cover member displacing the spring portion is configured as a sloped surface. Due to this configuration, it is possible to apply a stable biasing force to the board contacting portion without plastically deforming the terminals and to bring the board contacting portion of the terminal into secure contact with the board even when the thickness of the board varies greatly.
