Abstract: A mode switching switch and a dial switch are coaxially provided. A spring member is fixed to a linkage unit of the dial switch. The linkage unit is inserted through a click number change member, which has a cylinder unit and a shaft. The shaft is inserted into a guide groove formed on a cylinder unit of the mode switching switch.

The lock arm (25) resiliently locks a mating connector housing to lock the two connector housings in a connected state. Projections (35) project laterally from opposite lateral sides of the lock arm (25). Clearances (Q) are formed between the projections (35) and the ribs (36) by recessing the inner surfaces of the ribs (36). The clearances (Q) have channel shapes in rear view.

Abstract: A pair of shielded cables (20) having upper and lower ground terminals (30, 50) mounted thereon are brought in directions toward each other to slide upper and lower joint portions (31, 51) while placing them one over the other. Upon this assembling operation, the shielded cables (20) are brought into contact with arcuate standing portions (43, 63) formed at cable mounting portions (42, 62) or embraced by barrel pieces (44, 64) standing up from the arcuate standing portions (43, 63), thereby having displacements thereof relative to the upper and lower ground terminals (30, 50) prevented. Thus, operation forces can be reliably transmitted to the upper and lower joint portions (31, 51) via the shielded cables (20), and the assembling operation can be performed smoothly.

Abstract: A frame jig for a connector is provided in order to be able to easily confirm the kinds of electric wires to be inserted in a connector and the installation locations. The frame jig for a connector includes a holder having a recess and apertures adjacent every location that confronts a respective cavity of the connector retained in the recess. Additionally, at the peripheral rim of the recess at the upper face of the holder, side recesses are provided on the side faces of the holder. First ends of sample electric wires are inserted in the apertures which confront the installation cavities of the corresponding kinds of electric wires to be installed in the connector. The other end of the sample wires inserted into recesses formed in sides of the holder, and locking members are inserted into the side recesses.

Abstract: Each terminal (3) of a bulb socket (1) has a power-supplying tab (31) and a bulb connecting portion (32) that are integral with one another. The bulb connecting portion (32) is on an extension of the power-supplying tab (31) extending along an inserting direction into a connector accommodating portion (25). Thus, the bulb socket (1) is reduced in height, the number of assembling steps is reduced, and the deformation of the terminals can be avoided. Further, a reduction in the number of parts leads to reduced production costs.

Abstract: A retainer (40) has left and right pivotally displaceable locking pieces (47) and is held at a partial locking position on a housing (30) by the engagement of engageable portions (50) at the leading ends of the locking pieces (47) with partial locking projections (31) on the housing (30). Thus, even if the retainer (40) is pushed inadvertently, such a push is restricted by the contact of the contact surfaces with the restricting surfaces (37). Pressable portions (55) of the locking pieces (47) can be pressed while holding the opposite side surfaces of the retainer (40) by fingers. This causes the locking pieces (47) to displace pivotally outward and the engageable portions (50) disengage from the restricting surfaces (37). Thus, the retainer (40) can be pushed to a full locking position.

Abstract: A positioning plate (50) is mounted to a circuit board connector (10), and has insertion holes (51) into which jig contacts (29) of terminals (20) are insertable. A depth (D) of the insertion holes (51) exceeds a length (L) of the jig contact (29) of the terminal (20). Thus, upon mounting the circuit board connector (10) on a circuit board (40), the resilient contacts (27) of each terminal (20) are inserted into a corresponding through hole (41) until the positioning plate (50) comes contacts the circuit board (40), whereby further insertion of the resilient contacts (27) is prevented. As a result, lower edges (29B) of the jig contacts (29) are spaced from the circuit board (40). Thus, the circuit board (40) cannot be damaged by the lower edges (29B) of the jig contacts (29).

Abstract: Follower pins 12 of a female housing 10 are fitted into cam grooves 35 of a lever 30 supported by axles on a male housing 20. These two housings 10 and 20 can be fitted together or separated by means of pivoting the lever 30 between a starting position, and an ending position. An upper supporting member 40 is formed at a right side of a hood 23, and a lower supporting member 44. When the lever 30 is pivoted to the starting position or the ending position, a tip thereof is supported by the supporting member 40 or 44, respectively, thereby protecting this tip from contact with other components, etc. The supporting members 40 and 44 protrude into dead space relative to the position of the housing 20. Consequently, no extra space is required when the housing 20 is placed in position, yet the lever 30 has increased length and angle of travel.

Abstract: A connector has L-shaped female terminal fittings (42), and wires (70) are fastened to a wire fastening portion (55) at one side of the L-shaped female terminal fitting (42). The female terminal fittings (42) are accommodated in a connector housing, and the wires (70) are pulled out in a direction normal to a connector connecting direction. Thus it is not necessary to provide a space to bend the wires (70) behind the connector with respect to the connecting direction, and the wires (70) can be handled easily even if there is little space behind the connector.
