Abstract: The object of the present invention is to provide an electrical connector which makes it possible for the contacts to electrically contact each other with a high contact pressure even when the contacts are made smaller and shorter. Contacts 40 and 80 which electrically contact each other are respectively secured in housings of a plug connector 20 and a cap connector 60, with the contacts being positioned in two rows in each connector. When the plug connector 20 and cap connector 60 are connected, first and second spring members 42 and 44 of the contacts 40 are clamped between wall surfaces 38a and 38b of the housing 30 and the contact sections 82 of the contacts 80, so that the contacts 40 and 80 are springably pressed strongly against each other.

Abstract: 37 An electrical connector is provided in which the contacts do not slip out of the housing when the mating contacts of the mating connector contact both opposite major surfaces of the contact parts of the contacts, and which is devised so that even in cases where dirt or other members, e.g., housing bodies or electrical parts such as resistors, etc., approach the rear edges of the contacts, there is no short-circuiting of adjacent contacts by such dirt, etc. The electrical connector 1 is equipped with contacts 20 which have contact parts 23 that contact the mating contacts 42 of a mating connector 40 engaged parallel to the circuit board 30 with both opposite major surfaces of a stamped metal plate. The press-fitting fastening parts 22 of the contacts 20 are fastened to the housing 10 by press-fitting from the bottom side of the housing 10 in a direction perpendicular to the engagement direction of the mating connector 40.

Abstract: The object of the present invention is to provide an electrical connector which makes it possible for the contacts to electrically contact each other with a high contact pressure even when the contacts are made smaller and shorter. Contacts (40) and (80) which electrically contact each other are respectively secured in housings of a plug connector (20) and a cap connector (60), with the contacts being positioned in two rows in each connector. When the plug connector (20) and cap connector (60) are connected, first and second spring members (42) and (44) of the contacts (40) are clamped between wall surfaces (38a) and (38b) of the housing (30) and contact section (82) of the contacts (80), so that the contacts (40) and (80) are springably pressed strongly against each other.

Abstract: A cap housing (30,130,300,400,500) for mounting electrical connectors (80,180,380,480,580,680) thereto comprises cap portions (40,60,140,160,310,410,511,512) for receiving mating sections of connector housings containing contact portions (84b,184b,384,484,584,684) of electrical contacts (84,184,383,483,583,683) for protecting the contact portions, the mounting sections of the connector housings containing tine portions (84a,184a,386,486,586,686) that are to be positioned on a circuit board and soldered thereto, and engaging members (48,68,148,168,313,420,513,514) of the cap portions for engaging the electrical connectors thereby maintaining the electrical connectors on the cap portions.

Abstract: An extension (40) of a ground plate (6) is bent in the area where it overlaps with sections (22a) of termination sections (22) of electrical contacts (20) bent in a crank-like configuration, thereby forming a space sufficient for the placement of an intermediary connector (80) between a mother board (50) and a board-mounted connector (1). Since openings (46) are located in the extension (40), it does not engage with the bent sections (22a) of the electrical contacts (20).

Abstract: A card-edge connector with an ejection mechanism used for making electrical connection between a mother board and a card, which is inserted between two guide posts and which can be ejected from the connector. The card inserted between the guide posts is ejected by means of the ejection mechanism. The card-ejection mechanism comprises a push bar and a cam member. The push bar can move rectilinearly inside a guide post to release the card with the cam member transforming the movement of the push bar into rotational movement, resulting in the application of an ejection force to a corner of the card.
