  • Publication number: 20130107550
    Abstract: A connector (27) is adapted to be connected to a circuit board (23) and has an insulating housing (41) adapted to be mounted to one end portion of the circuit board. The housing is provided with conductive contacts (42) each having a shape along the housing. The housing has first and second portions (51, 52) that respectively face both surfaces of the circuit board when the housing is mounted to the circuit board, and a joining portion (54) joining the first and second portions together. The contacts are insulated from the circuit board in the joining portion and are exposed in the first portion so as to be capable of contacting the surface of the circuit board.

  • Patent number: 8277240
    Abstract: A connector has a first member connectable to a first object and a second member connectable to a second object. The second member is arranged so as to restrict movement of the first member in a first horizontal direction. The connector also has a connection member configured to connect the first member and the second member to each other so that the first member is movable relative to the second member in a second horizontal direction perpendicular to the first horizontal direction.

  • Patent number: 8087947
    Abstract: A connector which has a high level of contact stability. An operation member is formed by blanking and bending a metal plate. First and second linking portions that are disposed in a manner opposed to each other to connect a pair of operation portions are in an arrangement in which the first and second linking portions sandwich a pair of operation portions when the operation member is in a developed state. When the operation member is in a completed state, the first and second linking portions connecting the are bent at right angles with respect to the pair of operation portions, respectively.

  • Patent number: 8007326
    Abstract: A connector capable of preventing a contact portion of a contact from being damaged. The contact is held by a housing having an accommodating portion for accommodating an inserting portion of an inverter board. The contact has a contact portion which is capable of being brought into contact with the inserting portion accommodated in the accommodating portion along the direction of the thickness of the inverter board. A slider which brings the contact portion of the contact into and out of contact with the inserting portion of an inverter board by sliding is slidably mounted on the housing.
