Abstract: A connector is mateable with a mating connector having two mating lock portions along an upper-lower direction. The connector comprises a housing and two additional members held by the housing. The housing has a projecting wall projecting upward in the upper-lower direction, an outer wall surrounding the projecting wall in a horizontal plane perpendicular to the upper-lower direction and a receiving portion which is a space formed between the outer wall and the projecting wall and partially receives the mating connector under a mated state of the connector with the mating connector. Each of the additional members has a lock portion. The two lock portions are located at opposite sides of the projecting wall, respectively, in a horizontal direction perpendicular to the upper-lower direction and face the receiving portion. Under the mated state, the lock portions lock the locked portions, respectively, to maintain the mated state.

Abstract: A connector capable of maintaining contact reliability even with reduced arrangement pitch of contacts. First and second contacts are alternately arranged on a housing along contact arrangement direction orthogonal to direction of fitting the housing to a receptacle connector. A first contact portion, first bending portion, and first connecting portion connected to a coaxial cable, of each first contact are disposed on an upper surface, front portion and rear portion of the arranging portion, respectively. A linkage portion connecting the first bending and connecting portions, and a second contact portion continuous with a second connecting portion of each second contact are disposed on a lower surface of the arranging portion. A second bending portion disposed on the front portion is continuous with the second contact portion. The linkage portion is smaller in width in the arrangement direction than the first and second contact portions.

Abstract: A board connector has a plurality of contacts, an insulator holding the plurality of contacts, and a shell covering at least a part of the insulator. Each contact has an SMT terminal to be connected to a wiring pattern on a board. The insulator has a first insulator portion extending in an X-direction and two second insulator portions each extending in a Y-direction perpendicular to the X-direction. The first insulator portion has a bottom surface and first ends in the X-direction. Each second insulator portion has second ends. Each second insulator portion extends from the first ends to the second ends, respectively. The second ends are positioned on an imaginary straight line. The first insulator portion, the second insulator portions, and the imaginary straight line define a predetermined area. The SMT terminals are held by the insulator so that the SMT terminals are positioned within the predetermined area.

Abstract: An electrical connector includes a plug connector having a plug shell formed with a flange and a receptacle connector having a receptacle shell provided on its outer circumference with a fitting device. The electrical connector further includes a coupling ring surrounding the plug shell and rotatable and holding the flange of the plug shell. The coupling ring has on its inner circumference a fitting device fitted with the first mentioned fitting device and a flange urging portion for urging the flange. The electrical connector includes at least one wave-shaped annular spring interposed between the flange and the flange urging portion and rotatable together with the coupling ring.

The electrical connector further includes a coupling ring surrounding the plug shell and rotatable and holding the flange of the plug shell. The coupling ring has on its inner circumference a fitting device fitted with the first mentioned fitting device and a flange urging portion for urging the flange, and a key provided between the receptacle shell and the plug shell for preventing relative rotation therebetween. The electrical connector includes at least one wave-shaped annular spring interposed between the flange and the flange urging portion and rotatable together with the coupling ring.
