Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a connector device for use between printed-circuit boards, and more particularly to a connector device for use between two printed-circuit boards extending perpendicularly to each other.
  • Printed-circuit boards 1 with parts 4 installed thereon have on their ends male connectors 2 having connector pins 3.
  • a back panel 5 has a plurality of female connectors 2' with connector pin sockets 3'.
  • the printed-circuit boards 1 are brought perpendicularly toward the back panel 5 until the connector pins 3 on the male connectors 2 are inserted into the sockets 3', respectively, in the female connectors 2'.
  • Another set of plural printed-circuit boards 1 is also mounted on the back panel 5.
  • the printed-circuit boards 1 thus mounted on the back panel 5 are interconnected by connectors thereof for signal transmission therebetween.
  • FIG. 2 of the accompanying drawings shows one such connecting arrangement.
  • a pair of printed-circuit boards 1, 1' with electronic components 4, 4' attached thereto are interconnected perpendicularly to each other, and connectors 2, 2' on ends of the printed-circuit boards 1, 1 1 are coupled by a cable 6.
  • This connecting construction however is disadvantageous in that attaching the cable 6 is a troublesome task, and the proportion of the cost of the cable 6 to the overall cost of the connecting means including the connectors cannot be negligible.
  • a connector device comprising a first printed-circuit board with electronic components mounted thereon, a second printed-circuit board with electronic components mounted thereon, a male connector mounted on an end of the first printed-circuit board and having at least one connector pin, a female connector mounted on an end of the second printed-circuit board and having at least one connector pin socket, the first and second printed-circuit boards being mechanically and electrically interconnectable with each other in substantially perpendicular relation with the at least one connector pin fitted in the at least one connector pin socket.
  • the horizontal and vertical printed-circuit boards can easily be interconnected to provide electrical connection between the connectors through a simple operation. Since no cable connector is needed, the entire connector device is less costly to construct. Any electronic component on the printed-circuit boards thus coupled together is exposed for easy adjustment thereof.
  • a connector device according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to Figs. 3 through 5.
  • a printed-circuit board 1 with electronic components 4 disposed thereon has a male connector 2 mounted at one end. Although only one electronic component 4 is shown, a plurality of electronic parts such as capacitors, resistors, coils, transistors and the like are normally installed on the printed-circuit board 1.
  • the male connector 2 has an array of connector pins 3 (Fig. 5) projecting from the end of the printed-circuit board 1.
  • the connector pins 3 are coupled to lead wires 7 fixed to a casing of the male connector 2 and leading to the reverse side of the printed-circuit board 1, where the lead wires 7 are soldered to printed wires thereon.
  • the male connector 2 is thus secured mechanically to the printed-circuit board 1 with the connector pins 3 connected electrically to the printed-circuit board 1.
  • a printed-circuit board 1' to be connected to the printed-circuit board 1 has electronic components 4' installed thereon and a female connector 2' mounted on one end. Although only one electronic component 4' is shown, a plurality of electronic parts such as capacitors, resistors, coils, transistors and the like are normally installed on the printed-circuit board 1'.
  • the female connector 2' has an array of connector pin sockets 3' defined therein.
  • the connector pin sockets 3' are coupled to lead wires 7' fixed to a casing of the female connector 2' and leading to the reverse side of the printed-circuit board 1', where the lead wires 7' are soldered to printed wires thereon.
  • the female connector 2' is thus secured mechanically to the printed-circuit board 1' with the connector pin sockets 3' connected electrically to the printed-circuit board 1'.
  • the connector pins 3 and the connector pin sockets 3' are shaped to provide interfitting coupling engagement with each other.
  • the printed-circuit board 1 with the male connector 2 is brought horizontally toward the printed-circuit board 1' with the female connector 2', as shown in Fig. 4, and the printed-circuit boards 1, 1' are then put together so that the connector pins 3 will be fitted respectively in the connector pin sockets 3'.
  • the lead wires 7, 7' on the printed-circuit boards 1, 1' are electrically connected to each other through the connectors 2, 2'.
  • the printed-circuit boards 1, 1' as they are just about to be joined are shown in Fig. 5.
  • Figs. 6 and 7 are illustrative of a connector device according to another embodiment of the present invention.
  • a printed-circuit board 10 with electronic components 40 disposed thereon has a female connector 20 mounted at one end. Although only one electronic component 40 is shown, a plurality of electronic parts such as capacitors, resistors, coils, transistors and the like are normally installed on the printed-circuit board 10.
  • the female connector 20 has an array of connector pin sockets 30' defined therein.
  • the connector pin sockets 30' are coupled to lead wires 70 fixed to a casing of the female connector 20 and leading to the reverse side of the printed-circuit board 10, where the lead wires 70 are soldered to printed wires thereon.
  • the female connector 20 is thus secured mechanically to the printed-circuit board 10 with the connector pin sockets 30' connected electrically to the printed-circuit board 10.
  • a printed-circuit board 10' to be connected to the printed-circuit board 10 has electronic components 40' installed thereon and a male connector 20' mounted on one end. Although only one electronic component 40' is shown, a plurality of electronic parts such as capacitors, resistors, coils, transistors and the like . are normally installed on the printed-circuit board 10'.
  • the male connector 20' has an array of connector pins 30 projecting from the end of the printed-circuit board 10'.
  • the connector pins 3 are coupled to lead wires 70' fixed to a casing of the male connector 20' and leading to the reverse side of the printed-circuit board 10', where the lead wires 70' are soldered to printed wires thereon.
  • the male connector 20' is thus secured mechanically to the printed-circuit board 10' with the connector pins 30 connected electrically to the printed-circuit board 10'.
  • the connector pins 30 and the connector pin sockets 30' are shaped to provide interfitting coupling engagement with each other.
  • the printed-circuit board 10 with the female connector 20 is brought horizontally toward the printed-circuit board 10' with the female connector 20', as shown in Fig. 7, and the printed-circuit boards 10, 10' are then put together so that the connector pins 30 will be fitted respectively in the connector pin sockets 30'.
  • the lead wires 70, 70' on the printed-circuit boards 10, 10' are electrically connected to each other through the connectors 20, 20'.
  • the horizontal and vertical printed-circuit boards can easily be interconnected to provide electrical connection between the connectors through a simple operation. Since no cable connector is needed, the entire connector device is less costly to construct. Any electronic component on the printed-circuit boards thus coupled together is exposed for easy adjustment thereof.
