Abstract: A compact and simple constitution of a card connector, with which attaching and detaching works of a card can be performed easily, is provided. The connector 1 comprises: a body 2 having a recess 2a for a card 100; six contact springs projecting from a bottom face 3a of the recess 2a on which the IC card 100 is disposed, and elastically contacting with contact terminals 101 of the card 100; a stationary hooking portion 20 provided on a rear face side of the body 2; a movable hooking member 5 provided on a front face side of the body 2, and movable in a anteroposterior direction of the body 2; and a plate spring 18 for charging the movable hooking member 5 toward the rear face of the body 2, and wherein a tapered face 5b is formed on a rear face side of a hooking portion 5c so as to come closer to the rear face of the body 2 as approaching to the bottom face 3a of the recess 2a.

Abstract: In a receptacle of the invention for battery using apparatuses, when mounting it to a circuit board 30, an electrode contact portion 15 of a contact for a battery 5 disposed on an electrode disposing portion 7 is disposed so that its forward portion may protrude above a battery mounting portion 52. When mounting a battery 50 onto the battery mounting portion 52, an electrode 51 in a recess 50a is pressed against the electrode contact portion 15 in such an inclined state that the lower end of an end surface having an electrode 51 formed thereon is abutted against the right surface of the battery mounting portion 52 while raising the other end simultaneously and then the battery 50 is pushed forward to flex a slant strip 5e toward the side of an electrode disposing portion 7 while pressing down the other end, so that it can provide a large flexure allowance as compared to the case of flexing it vertically and resultantly enhance the contacting pressure, thus securing the connection with the battery electrode.

Abstract: A battery used by rolling a pole plate, formed by filling an active material, around a substrate using a band-shaped metal porous body having three-dimensionally linked spaces is inferior in flexibility and likely to short-circuit. According to this invention, grooves are formed in active material-filled substrate filled with the above active material, and then the grooved substrate is pressed flat to form groove active material layers, whereby cracks are made in the bottoms of the grooves preferentially, and cracks are pressed by the groove active material layers and blocked to prevent the flow-out of swelled projections of the cracks and the active material. Accordingly, a higher-capacity and higher-reliability battery is provided.

Abstract: A compact receptacle for mating connection with a complementary coaxial plug connector. The receptacle is in use to be mounted on a mobile phone for switching a signal line from an internal antenna to a vehicle's external antenna when placed on a cradle in a vehicle in mating connection with the plug connector on the cradle. The receptacle has a dielectric mold carrying an outer conductor shield fitted on top of the mold, a single spring member, and a single fixed contact member. The conductor shield includes an electrode socket for connection with an outer conductor tube of the plug. The spring member integrally carries a center electrode for connection with a center conductor post of the plug, and a movable contact which forms a normally-closed switch with a fixed contact on the fixed contact member for the above signal switching.
