Abstract: A board-to-board connector can electrically connect a first printed circuit board having a receptacle mounted thereon to a second printed circuit board having a plug mounted thereon. The receptacle includes a first housing and three first contacts and the plug includes a second housing and three second contacts. The first housing includes a concave portion and a first contact accommodation chamber. The concave portion can be fitted to the plug. The first contact accommodation chamber can accommodate a winding portion of the first contact. In the first contact, a lead terminal is fixed to the first printed circuit board and a contact terminal is fixed to the first housing. In the first contact, the first housing is movably supported by the winding portion with respect to the first printed circuit board.

Abstract: A connector includes a plurality of contacts electrically connected to a plurality of connection terminals of an IC card, a housing disposed with the contacts, and a cover having a first end coupled to the housing in a reclosable manner and a second end into which the IC card can be inserted and stored. The cover includes a main surface covering an insulated surface of the IC card and a pair of supports formed at both sides of the main surface. The pair of supports are formed with a pair of rectangular grooves serving to slidably guide the IC card and pairs of claws facing the main surface. When closing the cover, the IC card is biased by the contacts so that the connection terminals separate from the pairs of claws.

Abstract: A PC card can reduces possibility of the lid being detached from the extended portion even when twisting stress, bending stress, etc. is applied against the PC card, and simplifies the metal mold for resin molding. In the PC card, by placing a lid so as to face an extended portion in such a way that catches provided on the lid are evaded from the catches provided on the extended portion, and thereafter sliding the lid relatively against the extended portion in parallel with the insertion direction to the electronic apparatus, the catches on the lid and the catches on the extended portion become aligned in the height direction, and thereby the lid is fixed to the extended portion.

Abstract: A jack with a hollow columnar contact has a housing, which holds the hollow columnar contact firmly and the front end of the hollow columnar contact does not deflect readily. The insulating housing 1 comprises a plug connection opening 61, which a mating plug 65 is inserted into, a first insertion chamber 9 having the plug connection opening 61, and a first opening 14 in communication with the contact insertion chamber 9. The hollow columnar contact 3 is inserted along an axial direction into the first insertion chamber from the first opening 14. A cylindrical main contact body 3a is held by the first opening 14. A press-fit pin 6, arranged with a small-diameter axial part 6a, a large-diameter axial part 6b, and a head part 6c having an outer diameter is press-fitted into the cylindrical main contact body 4a.

Abstract: A connector is electrically connecting to a memory card which includes a card main body having a plurality of grooves formed on a distal end side thereof and connection terminals disposed on a bottom surface of the grooves of the card main body. The connector includes a housing having a plurality of extension portions fitting to the grooves of the card main body, contacts held by the extension portions of the housing. Each extension portions of the housing has a through-hole. The contact has a base portion fixed by the through-hole, and an elastic portion extending from the fixed portion to the groove and capable of undergoing elastic deformation. The surface of the extension portion of the housing and the surface of the memory card exist substantially on the same level when the grooves of the memory card are fitted to the extension portions of the housing.

Abstract: The present invention relates to, for example, a connector into which two kinds of memory cards with different thicknesses are insertable selectively. The connector includes: a housing which has a card insertion port; plural first contacts provided inside the housing; and plural second contacts provided between the first contacts and the card insertion port. The second contacts extend toward the first contacts and include: first contact portions provided at distal ends of the second contacts; and second contact portions provided further on proximal end sides of the second contacts than the first contacts. According to the invention, when the thick memory cards is inserted, the second contact portions come into abutment against the thick memory card, and when the thin memory cards is inserted, the first contact portions come into abutment against the thin memory card. Thus, durability of the connector can be improved.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a connector which is electrically connected to a memory card. The connector includes a substantially cylindrical housing and plural elastically deformable contacts inside the housing. The housing includes a card insertion slot which is cut and formed on one end side thereof and an abutting portion which is provided on the other end side of the card insertion slot. The plural contacts are provided in positions opposed to the card insertion slot and extend toward the other end side of the housing and the abutting portion. A gap between the distal ends of the plural contacts and the abutting portion is set smaller than a thickness of the memory card. According to the present invention, when the memory card is inserted in the card insertion slot and a proximal end side of the memory card is inclined to the other end side of the housing, a distal end of the memory card slides on surfaces of the contacts.

Abstract: A CF card can be shifted in position with respect to a card connecting adapter between a position where it is projected from the housing of the card connecting adapter and a position where it is prevented from projecting from the housing of the card connecting adapter. When the CF card is set at the position where it is prevented from projecting from the housing of the card connecting adapter, the antenna mounting surface of the CF card with an antenna is prevented from projecting from the body of a notebook personal computer. On the other hand, when the CF card is set at the position where it is projected from the housing, the antenna mounting surface is projected from the PC card slot.

Abstract: In a connector with a cover or door body, it is a purpose of the present invention to provide a connector and a connector main body of the connector of difficulty being broken into parts when the connector is under use for being plugging in or pulling off although it is possible to detach the cover with ease. It is characterized in that a direction of force to widen a second opening (18) from which a cable (20) of the connector (10) is drawn out is different from a direction of detaching the cover (14) from the housing main body (12). The detaching direction may be a sliding direction on the housing main body (12). Moreover, it is characterized in that a direction of force to widen the opening (18) is substantially orthogonal to the detaching direction of the cover (14) from the housing main body (12).

Abstract: A jack, which would cause hardly a defective connection even if a mechanical deformation is received when attaching or using it, will be offered. The electric junction of contacts (3), (4) and leads (51), (52) is done by crimping, the crimping portions (3c), (4b) are arranged in a housing (1) of the jack which is not exposed easily to a mechanical deformation, and, in addition, the structure is so made that the mechanical force doesn't work easily on the crimping portions (3c), (4b) also by the leads (51), (52) extending from the jack.
