  • Patent number: 7384288
    Abstract: To provide a connector that enables change in the arrangement of signal connections ‘S’ and grounding connections ‘G’, merely by putting short-circuit pins in the housing of the connector, but without needing any change made in the circuit pattern on printed circuit boards that are stacked one on another to be electrically connected one to another. The connector has a housing (2) and a number of vertical holes (7) pierced in and extending between a top and a bottom of the housing so as to penetrate it, the holes being for insertion of terminal pins (57). A front and rear walls (3, 4) of the housing respectively have horizontal slots (8a, 8b) arranged to form an upper row and a lower row to receive contacts (20, 21, 22), with each slot extending to intersect the corresponding vertical hole (7) at a right angle.

  • Patent number: 7192301
    Abstract: A connector is provided with a cable retainer which includes thin plate extending in one direction, five projections projecting from the thin plate part, and a ground part projecting from the projections. The cable retainer clips cables by projections plastically deformed by caulking. Furthermore, when the cable retainer is attached to a housing, it is arranged so that the ends of the connect portions of the ground part face the terminals that serve as ground electrodes.

  • Patent number: 7131874
    Abstract: A connector comprises signal terminals that extend in one direction, a conductive tubular shell that encloses at least the ends of the signal terminals, the axis of the shell being extending in a inserting direction to the opposing connector, and a ground terminal that turns over inwardly at a rear opening edge of the shell and projects so as to extend to the portion near the front opening edge of the inserting direction. When the connector is fitted to the opposing connector, the signal terminals and the ground terminal clip a projecting part of the opposing connector, whereby the signal terminals are electrically connected to the opposing signal terminals formed on the projecting part, and the ground terminal is electrically connected to the opposing ground terminal formed on the projecting part.

  • Patent number: 7044809
    Abstract: An electric contact of a plug connector is formed by folding a blank, and is inserted into a receiving cell of a housing and fitted to the housing. The electric contact includes a tab formed of a base plate and a contact plate folded so as to overlap one another in the thickness direction. The rear end of the base plate includes a protruding part that protrudes beyond the rear end of the contact plate in the depth direction. When the contact body is set in the receiving cell of the housing, the base plate of the tab protruding out of the receiving cell is supported by the housing, and the protruding part of the base plate is fitted in and held by the housing to prevent the tab from lifting from the housing in the thickness direction.

  • Patent number: 6957975
    Abstract: A plug connector with a locking mechanism includes a housing having a body and an inserting part, a contact received therein, lock arms provided on both sides in a width direction of the housing and extending rearward in a depth direction and having protrusions provided at top ends thereof, and control arms provided on both sides in the width direction of the housing and extending forwardly in the depth direction. The control arms transmit forces working inwardly in the width direction to the lock arms. The control arms are arranged in such a way that when the inserting part is inserted into the cavity of the receptacle connector, the protrusions will be caught on the catching faces of the receptacle connector, and when the top ends of the control arms are pressed inwardly in the width direction, the protrusions will be released from the catching faces.

  • Publication number: 20040209529
    Abstract: The objective of the present invention is to reconcile assurance of the barrel's function of crimping thin wire and enhancement in the strength of the tab, and fit the top end of the tab on the housing to prevent the tab from lifting from the supporting wall, and in turn, to prevent defective fitting-in or failure of fitting-in between the plug connector and the receptacle connector. The electric contact of plug connector of the present invention is formed by folding a blank of a certain configuration, inserted into the receiving cell of the housing and fitted on the housing. The tab of the electric contact comprises a base plate and a contact plate formed by folding a part of the blank and overlapping them in the thickness direction. The rear end in the depth direction of the base plate protrudes beyond the rear end in the depth direction of the contact plate to provide a protruding part.
