Abstract: A connector assembly comprises a first connector and a second connector connectable to each other. The first connector comprises first terminals each having a first contact portion, a first shell having a first mating portion and a first engagement member formed with an engagement recess. The second connector comprises second terminals each having a second contact portion, a second shell having a second mating portion and a second engagement member having an engagement projection. Under a connected state where the first connector and the second connector are connected to each other, the first mating portion and the second mating portion entirely enclose contact areas in a perpendicular plane (YZ-plane) at which the first contact portions are in contact with the second contact portions. Under the connected state, the engagement projection and the engagement recess are engaged with each other to lock the connected state.

Abstract: An actuator for camera which drives a lens unit of a camera includes an outer frame, an inner frame which houses and holds the lens unit and is positioned inside the outer frame, a plurality of first supporting members which are provided between the outer frame and the inner frame and support the inner frame with respect to the outer frame so that the inner frame is displaceable in an optical axis direction of the lens unit, a first driving coil which is attached on an outer circumferential surface of the inner frame and drives the inner frame in the optical axis direction, and permanent magnets which are attached to the outer frame in a manner to be opposed to the first driving coil. The first supporting members are made of elastomer and have a shape of which a center line is a straight line which connects mutually opposed portions of the outer frame and the inner frame. An actuator for camera which is superior in productivity, reliability, and durability can be obtained.

Abstract: A connector comprises a base insulator, a plurality of elongated plate shaped contacts arranged on the base insulator, and a cover insulator arranged to hold the contacts in cooperation with the base insulator and welded to the base insulator, the base insulator is provided with a pair of openings arranged to face each other across each of holders and to intersect with the direction in which the holders are arranged.

Abstract: Provided is a connector lockable a connection with the connection object securely. The connector comprises a housing, an attachment, and a lock portion. The connection object which has a locked portion is inserted to and connected with the connector from the front of the connector. The attachment is attached to the housing and comprises an upper attachment positioned higher than the housing, a lower attachment positioned lower than the housing, and a coupling portion coupling the upper attachment and the lower attachment. The lock portion comprises a locking lug positioned backward of the coupling portion and engaging with the locked portion of the connection object when the connection object connected with the connector is moved in an eject direction opposite to the insertion direction, and a spring portion positioned between the upper attachment and the lower attachment and supporting the locking lug so as to be displaceable in a vertical direction perpendicular to the insertion direction.

Abstract: A connector can prevent a short circuit between a conductive member positioned on a board and an actuation lever actuatable without an actuation tag. A distance between the board and an actuation portion is larger than another distance between the board and an engage portion under a locked state where the engage portion is engaged with an engaged portion. Under the locked state, the actuation portion is positioned away from the conductive member (a SMT terminal and the conductive pattern formed on the board) so that the actuation lever can be prevented from making the short circuit with the conductive member.

Abstract: A connector is mountable on a circuit board and matable with a mating connector having a mating portion and a mating shell. The connector comprises a housing and a shell. The housing is formed with a receiving portion. The receiving portion is receives the mating portion of the mating connector when the mating portion is inserted into the connector. The shell has a plurality of first connected portions and a plurality of second connected portions. The first connected portions are configured to be connected to the mating shell of the mating connector when the connector and the mating connector are mated with each other. The second connected portions are configured to be connected to the circuit board when the connector is mounted on the circuit board. The first connected portions and the second connected portions extend forward of the receiving portion.

Abstract: A connector is configured to be mated with and connected to a mating connector in a state where the connector is attached to an FPC having a principal surface on which a signal terminal and a ground terminal are arranged. The connector comprises a housing, a plurality of contacts held by the housing, a cover shell partially covering the housing and a lock bar supported by the housing and/or the cover shell so as to be turnable. Each of the contacts has an exposed portion connectable to the signal terminal of the connecting object. The cover shell has a grounded portion connectable to the ground terminal of the connecting object. The lock bar is configured to lock a mating state where the connector is mated with the mating connector.

Abstract: The present invention provides a connector 100 which can prevent a short circuit between the actuation lever 160 and a conductive member positioned on a board 50, and has an actuation lever 160 actuatable without an actuation tag. A distance between the board 50 and an actuation portion 172 is larger than another distance between the board 50 and an engage portion 170 under a locked state where the engage portion 170 is engaged with an engaged portion 202. Under the locked state, the actuation portion 172 is positioned away from the conductive member (a SMT terminal 212 and the conductive pattern formed on the board 50) so that the actuation lever 160 can be prevented from making the short circuit with the conductive member.

Abstract: A connector assembly includes a first connector and a second connector. The second connector is engageable with the first connector along a downward direction in a state where the first connector is below the second connector. The second connector includes a second contact, a second holding member and an operating portion. The operating portion is held by the second holding member so that a positional relation therebetween is kept when a force is applied to the operating portion along an upward direction and when a force is applied to the operating portion along a first horizontal direction perpendicular to the upward direction or a second horizontal direction opposite to the first horizontal direction. The second connector is removable from the first connector when a force is applied to the operating portion either along the upward direction or along the first or second horizontal direction.
