  • Patent number: 11191196
    Abstract: Provided is an electrically conductive solderable gasket configured to be not easily separated or detached from a circuit board by external force after the electrically conductive solderable gasket is mounted on the circuit board by soldering. The gasket includes: a single-body metallic support and an elastic electrical contact terminal which is superposed on an upper portion of the support and into which portions of the support are fitted, wherein the support includes a fixing portion, extensions bent upward from both lengthwise ends of the fixing portion, and first and second fitting portions bent inward respectively from upper ends of the extensions, wherein the first and second fitting portions are fitted into a through-hole of the electrical contact terminal and overlap each other in a state in which a lower surface of a metal layer of the electrical contact terminal is placed in contact with the fixing portion.

  • Patent number: 10879662
    Abstract: An electric contact terminal configured to be forcibly inserted into an accommodation recess formed in a surface of an electrically conductive object and thus be reliably mounted on the electrically conductive object. The electric contact terminal includes: a metal body having a flat surface on at least an upper side thereof; and at least two projections protruding from a lateral side of the body, wherein the projections are sized such that the projections are placed on an edge of the accommodation recess.

  • Publication number: 20190045657
    Abstract: A resilient contact terminal having a structure that can be applied to various purposes. The contact terminal has: a base; a plurality of bridges of which one end is connected to the base, is spirally wound and extends in upward inclination, and which thus are vertically resilient; and a contact portion connected to the other end of each bridge. A gap portion separates the bridges and the contact portion, and the bridges and the base. The edge of the base is positioned further outward than the edge of the contact portion.

  • Patent number: 9397419
    Abstract: A solderable electric connector formed of a metal sheet as a single body includes a flat bottom portion soldered to a conductive pattern of a printed circuit board (PCB), an elastic fastening portion bent and extended from one end of the bottom portion in a longitudinal direction thereof, and a housing vertically bent and extended from one end of the bottom portion in a width direction and surrounding the elastic fastening portion. Herein, a front end of the housing is vertically bent downwards and forms a supporting plate and a penetration hole is formed in a certain location on the supporting plate. Also, a pressurizing projection projects from a top surface of the elastic fastening portion and a metal core of a wire passing through the penetration hole is pressurized between the pressurizing projection and a bottom surface of the housing and coupled therewith.

  • Patent number: 9350105
    Abstract: Provided is a surface-mount type electric connecting terminal which is disposed between opposing conductive objects and is configured to electrically connecting the objects while easily adjusting pressing force and recovery force. The electric connecting terminal includes a cylindrical fixed member which is made from a metallic material; a cylindrical movable member which is slidably inserted in the fixed member and is made from a metallic material; and an electrical conductive spring which is accommodated in the fixed member and whose one end contacts with the bottom of the fixed member and the other end contacts with the bottom of the movable member for thereby allowing the movable member to elastically slide against the fixed member.
