When the second connector is mated with the first connector under the reversed state, the first reversed guided-portion and the second reversed guided-portion are guided by the first guide portion and the second guide portion, respectively.

Abstract: To satisfy the demand for a reduction in height, provided is a technique for reducing a gap between a motherboard and a daughterboard in the state where the daughterboard is connected to the motherboard. A card edge connector is used to be mounted on a connector mounting surface of a mainboard to connect a memory module to the mainboard. The card edge connector includes a latch portion for pressing the memory module to be displaced in a direction away from the connector mounting surface, toward the connector mounting surface. The latch portion is configured to be elastically displaceable in the direction away from the connector mounting surface.

Abstract: A connector is connectable to a cable having a plurality of signal wires and a drain wire. Each of the signal wires includes a signal conductor. The connector comprises a plurality of contacts, a holding member and a shell. The holding member is provided with an accommodating portion configured to accommodate an end part of the drain wire. The accommodating portion extends through the holding portion along a predetermined direction. The contacts configured to be connected to the signal conductors, respectively. The contacts are held by the holding member so that connection works between the contacts and the signal conductors are performable along the predetermined direction. The shell covers, at least in part, the holding member. The shell has a fixing portion exposed in the accommodating portion so that the end part of the drain wire is fixable to the fixing portion within the accommodating portion.

Abstract: When Cyazofamid is formulated in accordance with a conventional formulation method, Cyazofamid is degraded in some cases. The problem to be solved by the present invention is to improve storage stability of the formulation by controlling degradation of Cyazofamid as an agricultural chemical active ingredient. The present invention provides a method for controlling degradation of an agricultural chemical active ingredient, Cyazofamid, which comprises using at least one stabilizer selected from the group consisting of epoxidized animal oil and/or vegetable oil, a nonionic surface active agent of polyoxyethylene, an anionic surface active agent of polyoxyethylene, polyhydric alcohol and a basic substance.

Abstract: A connector is mountable on a circuit board and matable with a mating connector inserted from a front end of the connector toward a rear end of the connector. The connector has a plurality of contacts, a holder for holding the plurality of contacts so that the plurality of contacts is arranged in a lateral direction, and a shell for covering at least part of the holder. The shell has a lower plate facing the circuit board when the connector is mounted on the circuit board. The lower plate includes a front edge, an inner back edge located away from the front edge by a predetermined distance, inner side edges connecting the inner back edge to the front edge, and a ground portion projecting frontward from the inner back edge. The inner back edge and the inner side edges define a recessed area recessed rearward from the front edge by a predetermined distance. The ground portion is connectable to the circuit board.

Abstract: When an organosilicone surface active agent is added to a pesticidal aqueous suspension composition containing an active ingredient compound of a sparingly water-soluble pesticide for the purpose of attaining activity enhancement and formulation, the following problems arise: such that (1) the viscosity of the composition increases; (2) a large amount of foams due to the organosilicone surface active agent tends to generate at the time of preparation of a spray solution; and the like. Thus, measuring the composition and preparation of a spray solution were difficult.

Abstract: In a connector including a connector body capable of being connected to or disconnected from a connecting object in a first direction, the connector body has, in a second direction perpendicular to the first direction, a particular dimension greater than a dimension thereof in a third direction perpendicular to the first and second directions.
