Abstract: To provide an electrical connector with flat-type conductors, a counterpart electrical connector, and an electrical connector assembly, in which the size of the connector is not increased in the thickness direction of the flat-type conductors when using two flat-type conductors disposed in parallel opposite each other.

Abstract: An electrical connector with a flat-type conductor 1 for matingly connecting a front end section of a flat-type conductor C with a strip-like configuration extending in the forward-backward direction to a counterpart electrical connector 2, said electrical connector with a flat-type conductor 1 comprising the flat-type conductor C and a housing 10 holding the front end section of the flat-type conductor C, wherein the housing 10 has a locking portion 11E lockable to the counterpart electrical connector 2 and receiving spaces 10D for receiving counterpart terminals 30 provided in the counterpart electrical connector 2, and the locking portion 11E, along with being positioned differently from the position of the receiving spaces 10D when viewed in the thickness direction of the flat-type conductor C, is positioned so as to at least partially overlap with the receiving spaces 10D in the thickness direction of the flat-type conductor C.

Abstract: The housing has a locking portion, which is positioned within the range between the circuits positioned at the outermost ends in the strip width direction of the flat-type conductor and is lockable to the counterpart electrical connector, and a holding space, which holds the retainer along with the front end section of the flat-type conductor, the front end section of the flat-type conductor has formed therein a pass-through portion extending through the flat-type conductor in the thickness direction of said flat-type conductor at a location at least partially overlapping with the locking portion in the strip width direction, and the retainer has a protrusion that protrudes in the thickness direction of the flat-type conductor and enters the pass-through portion of the flat-type conductor, thereby making it possible to limit the rearward movement of the flat-type conductor with the help of said protrusion.

Abstract: [Problem] To provide an electrical connector with flat-type conductors, a counterpart electrical connector, and an electrical connector assembly, in which the size of the connector is not increased in the thickness direction of the flat-type conductors when using two flat-type conductors disposed in parallel opposite each other.

Abstract: A power source connector device includes a first connector and a second connector. The first connector includes a first housing and first terminals. The second connector includes second terminals. The second terminals face each other at least partially with a space in between. When the first connector and the second connector fit to each other, a portion of the first housing is disposed in the space. At the same time, a portion of an outer wall of one of the first connector and the second connector abuts an inner wall of the other of the second connector or the first connector. An engaging portion is disposed on the outer wall, and a corresponding engaging portion for engaging with the engaging portion is disposed on the inner wall. The engaging portion is supported using the first housing disposed in the space.

Abstract: A connector device includes first and second connectors including first and second housings. The second housing has a recess that receives the first housing. The first housing is connected to one end portion of a cable and has a first opening portion, which allows the other end portion of the cable to extend to the outside, on a peripheral wall at one side. An outer peripheral surface of the peripheral wall includes an inclined surface at the other side. The inclined surface is inclined so as to approach a bottom portion of the recess while extending in a direction from the one end portion toward the other end portion of the cable. The inclined surface is brought into contact with the recess so that the first connector is moved relative to the second connector in the direction from the one end portion toward the other end portion.
