Abstract: A board connector (10) has a housing (20) with a terminal holding portion (40) for holding terminals (30) in forward and backward directions and a receptacle extends forward from the terminal holding portion (40). Mount grooves (60) are formed in side walls (52) of the receptacle (50). Board fixing portions (70) are held in the mount grooves (60) within the thickness range of the side walls and are soldered to the upper surface of a printed board (P). Mounting portions (54) are formed in the side walls (52) and have open front ends. Restricting members (80) are formed separately from the mating connector and mountable within the thickness range of the side walls (52) forward of the board fixing portions (70). One end of each restricting member (54) engages lower surfaces (54A) of the mounting portions (54) and the other end engages the lower surface of the printed board (P).

Abstract: A lever type electrical connector includes an insulating housing provided with a least one terminal and a mating face that receives a complementary mating connector. A cam plate is arranged on the insulating housing and is moveable in a sliding direction substantially perpendicular to a mating direction of the complementary mating connector. A lever is mounted on the insulating housing. The lever has a shaft extending substantially perpendicular to the sliding direction and the mating direction and is rotatable about the shaft between an open position and a closed position to move the cam plate in the sliding direction. An elastically deformable bearing section is provided on the insulating housing and supports the shaft. A reinforcement member is removably attached to the bearing section and abuts the bearing section such that the reinforcement member receives a force applied from the shaft to the bearing section when the lever is rotated.

Abstract: A threaded fastener and a connector having the threaded fastener are provided, which threaded fastener includes: a shank, with a screw thread thereon, to be screwed to a mating member; and a head continuing from the shank and having a regular-polygonal cross section, wherein the head has an expanding portion with a cross-sectional area gradually becoming larger toward the shank and a reducing portion with a cross-sectional area gradually becoming smaller toward the shank, the reducing portion continues from the expanding portion in a direction of an axis of the shank, and the reducing portion is arranged nearer the shank than the expanding portion.
