In Patent Document 1, a circuit (conduction pattern) that extends from the contact portion with the contact 7 of the mating connector 6 to the contact portion with the wiring pattern 15 of the mother substrate 14 on the surface of the three-dimensional molded circuit board 2 and is also connected to the electronic component 4. 3, the contact body 8 and the terminal body 16) are formed. However, since this circuit is formed in a long and three-dimensional manner, external noise enters the circuit, or noise generated by the circuit itself easily affects other signal lines, and the signal adjusted by the electronic component 4 The electrical characteristics of are easily disturbed. For this reason, it is difficult to maintain the stability of the signal output from the connector, and it is also difficult to obtain the intended accurate electrical characteristics. In recent years, demands for high-speed transmission for connectors have become strict, but the electrical characteristics of signals must be stabilized in order to realize high-speed transmission, so the invention of Patent Document 1 meets such demands. Is difficult.
Further, in the connector of Patent Document 1, a process of forming a three-dimensionally formed circuit (the conductive pattern 3, the contact body 8, and the terminal body 16) on the surface of the three-dimensional molded circuit board 2, and mounting (joining / bonding) the electrical component 4 on the circuit. A step of conducting) is required. As described above, since a plurality of complicated manufacturing processes are required, the connector of Patent Document 1 is disadvantageous in terms of productivity and manufacturing cost.

  When the cable is an FPC or FFC, the insulator can be moved relative to the insulator, and when the cable is moved to a predetermined lock position, the contact is pressed to contact pressure between the contact and the cable. It is preferable to provide an actuator for enhancing the above.

  As the electronic component, for example, any of a filter, a capacitor, a diode, and a resistor can be used.

According to the present invention, since not only the contact but also the electronic component is supported by the insulator, the distance between the contact and the electronic component can be extremely reduced. Therefore, the signal flow path (for example, pattern) between the contact and the electronic component can be shortened, so that external noise enters the flow path or noise from leaking to the outside is minimized. It becomes possible. Therefore, even if the cable is FPC or FFC (Claim 10) or a wire, the intended electrical characteristics can be accurately obtained by electronic components (filter, capacitor, diode, resistor, etc.) Signal stability can be made extremely high.
Further, since the electronic component is supported by the insulator, the contact and the electronic component can be simultaneously mounted on the circuit board. Thereby, it is possible to improve productivity as compared with the case where the electronic component and the connector are separately or dividedly mounted on the circuit board, and the mounting area on the board can be reduced.

  According to the second and third aspects, since the signal flow path on the circuit board can be eliminated or extremely shortened, the intended electrical characteristics can be obtained more accurately by the electronic component, and the signal stability can be obtained. Can be made higher.

According to the invention of claim 4, the flow path between the electronic component and the contact can be extremely short (or almost eliminated), and the electronic component and the contact can be simultaneously mounted in a common pattern, so that productivity can be improved. it can.
Furthermore, the mounting strength between the electronic component and the contact can be improved.

  According to the seventh aspect of the invention, the number of parts can be reduced.

According to the eighth aspect of the present invention, the electronic component insulator can be connected to a normal type insulator that does not include a support portion for the electronic component. Therefore, the present invention can be embodied using an existing cable connector.
Further, when there is a demand for obtaining output signals having various electrical characteristics, it is only necessary to prepare various types of electronic component insulators. Therefore, it is possible to respond while suppressing costs and capital investment.

  According to the ninth aspect of the invention, the insulator for contact and the insulator for electronic component can be integrated easily and firmly and a shielding effect can be obtained.

The portion constituted by the contact insulator 20, the signal contact 30 </ b> S, the ground contact 30 </ b> G, the rotary actuator 40, and the metal fitting 45 described above has the same structure as a normal type FPC connector that does not incorporate the filter 60.

An electronic component insulator 50, which is a member positioned immediately after the contact insulator 20, is formed by injection molding an insulating synthetic resin material. As shown in the figure, a pair of left and right contact portions 51 protrude from the front portion of the electronic component insulator 50, and a front recess 52 is formed between the left and right contact portions 51. On the lower surface of the electronic component insulator 50, four fitting recesses (supporting portions) 53 extending from the front surface to the rear surface of the electronic component insulator 50 are provided side by side in the left-right direction. Further, a pair of left and right tail recesses 54 are formed in the left and right sides of the rear surface of the electronic component insulator 50, and fitting holes 55 extending downward are formed in the left and right sides of the upper surface of the electronic component insulator 50. Are provided as a pair.
The filter 60 has a rectangular parallelepiped shape that is substantially the same shape as the fitting recess 53, and a total of ten signal terminals 61, signal terminals 62, and ground terminals 63 having a U-shaped cross section are attached to the peripheral edge thereof. As shown in the figure, four filters 60 are fitted and fixed in the fitting recesses 53 of the electronic component insulator 50. The signal terminal 61 and the signal terminal 62 are arranged at equal intervals in the left-right direction, and the arrangement interval between them is the same as the arrangement interval of the contact mounting grooves 22 (signal contact 30S, ground contact 30G).

The contact insulator 20 supporting the signal contact 30S, the ground contact 30G, the rotary actuator 40 and the metal fitting 45, and the electronic component insulator 50 integrated with the filter 60 are mounted on the upper surface of the circuit board CB having a rectangular shape in plan view. The
Before placing the contact insulator 20 and the electronic component insulator 50 on the circuit board CB, the metal shield member 70 is attached to the contact insulator 20 and the electronic component insulator 50.
The shield member 70 has a pair of front-side fitting pieces 71, rear-side fitting pieces 72, and a tail portion 73 on both left and right side portions thereof, and a window hole 74 extending in the left-right direction is formed on the upper surface thereof. It is. As shown in the figure, the shield member 70 has its lower surface covered on the upper surfaces of the contact insulator 20 and the electronic component insulator 50, and the left and right front fitting pieces 71 are fitted in the left and right fitting holes 24 of the contact insulator 20. The left and right rear fitting pieces 72 are fitted into the left and right fitting holes 55 of the electronic component insulator 50, and the left and right tail portions 73 are positioned in the tail portion concave portion 54 of the electronic component insulator 50. Thus, the contact insulator 20 and the electronic component insulator 50 are integrated.
Further, the window hole 74 of the shield member 70 is preferably opened so that the tail portion 33 of each contact and the signal terminal 62 of the filter 60 can be seen in a plan view. Thereby, when the tail part 33 and the signal terminal 62 are soldered on the circuit pattern SP1, mounting inspection by image recognition becomes possible.

As shown in FIG. 1, FIG. 2, FIG. 3 and FIG. 5, a conductive ground pattern GP, a circuit pattern (first pattern) SP1, and a circuit pattern (second pattern) SP2 are formed on the upper surface of the circuit board CB. (As shown in FIG. 3, the ground pattern GP, the circuit pattern SP1, and the circuit pattern SP2 of the present embodiment are symmetrical). The ground pattern GP is a pattern including a portion extending in the left-right direction, a portion extending in the front-rear direction from a portion extending in the left-right direction, and an L-shaped portion continuous to both ends of the portion extending in the left-right direction. The circuit pattern SP1 is a pattern formed side by side in the left-right direction immediately before the portion extending in the left-right direction of the ground pattern GP, and the circuit pattern SP2 is a pattern formed side-by-side in the left-right direction immediately after the portion extending in the left-right direction of the ground pattern GP. In other words, the circuit pattern SP1 and the circuit pattern SP2 are discontinuous and electrically separated from each other. Further, the circuit pattern SP1 and the circuit pattern SP2 are arranged at equal intervals, and the arrangement interval between them is the same as the arrangement interval between the signal terminal 61 and the signal terminal 62.
The contact insulator 20 is placed on the front half of the circuit pattern SP1 corresponding to the tail portion 33 of each signal contact 30S, and the ground pattern GP (positioned between the circuit patterns SP1) of the tail portion 33 of each ground contact 30G. And placed on the circuit board CB so as to be placed on a portion extending in the front-rear direction).
On the other hand, the electronic component insulator 50 is placed on the rear half of the corresponding circuit pattern SP1 at the lower end of the signal terminal (input terminal) 62 located on the front side of each filter 60, and is located on the rear side of each filter 60. The lower end of the (output terminal) 61 is placed on the corresponding circuit pattern SP2, and the lower end of the ground terminal 63 located on the left and right sides of each filter 60 is placed on the ground pattern GP (part extending in the left-right direction). And placed on the circuit board CB. The positional relationship between the front surfaces of the pair of contact portions 51 of the electronic component insulator 50 and the left and right side portions of the rear surface of the contact insulator 20 is such that the electronic component insulator 50 can be placed on the circuit board CB in this way. (The signal terminal 62 of the filter 60 may be brought into contact with the rear end face of the corresponding signal contact 30S, or a slight clearance may be provided. See FIGS. 1 and 5).

In this state, soldering between the tail portion 33 of each signal contact 30S and the corresponding circuit pattern SP1, soldering between the tail portion 33 of each ground contact 30G and the corresponding ground pattern GP, and left and right tail portions 73 are performed. If the soldering of the lower end portion of the substrate and the left and right end portions (L-shaped portions) of the ground pattern GP is performed simultaneously, the contact insulator 20, the electronic component insulator 50, and the shield member 70 are mounted on the circuit board CB, and further, The connection state between the signal terminal 62 and the circuit pattern SP1 of each filter 60 held by the component insulator 50, the connection state between the signal terminal 61 and the circuit pattern SP2, and the connection state between the ground terminal 63 and the ground pattern GP are held. Is done.
The rotary actuator 40 of the FPC connector 10 configured as described above is rotated to the unlock position (the position of the phantom line in FIG. 6), and the FPC (flexible printed circuit board) 80 that is the connection target is viewed from the front of the contact insulator 20. When the FPC 80 is inserted between the upper arm 31 and the lower arm 32 of each signal contact 30S and ground contact 30G and the FPC 80 is rotated to the locked position in this state, the upper arm 31 of each signal contact 30S and ground contact 30G is moved downward by the FPC 80. Therefore, the contact pressure of the pattern formed on the lower surface of the FPC 80 and the lower arm 32 of each signal contact 30S and the ground contact 30G increases, and the pattern formed on the lower surface of the FPC 80, each signal contact 30S and the ground Contact 30G of the lower arm 32 are electrically connected.

  If the gap between each signal contact 30S and the filter 60 is large and the transmission line (pattern) connecting them is long, a large amount of external noise enters the transmission line, or a large amount of noise leaks to the outside from the transmission line. Therefore, even if the electrical characteristics of the electrical signal are adjusted by the filter 60, it becomes difficult to accurately set the output electrical signal to the desired characteristics. However, in this embodiment, the signal contact 30S, the ground contact 30G, and the filter 60 are supported in close proximity by the insulator including the contact insulator 20 and the electronic component insulator 50, so that the tail portion 33 of the corresponding signal contact 30S The signal terminal 62 of the filter 60 is connected to the common circuit pattern SP1. Therefore, an electric signal flow path (a portion located between the tail portion 33 of the signal contact 30S and the signal terminal 62 in the circuit pattern SP1) exists between the tail portion 33 of the signal contact 30S and the lower end portion of the signal terminal 62. Since it is extremely short, it is possible to minimize the possibility of external noise entering the flow path or leakage of noise from the flow path to the outside. For this reason, the electrical signal output from the filter 60 has extremely high stability, and its electrical characteristics are intended.

In addition, since the signal contact 30S, the ground contact 30G, and the filter 60 can be mounted on the circuit board CB at the same time, that is, once, productivity can be improved.
Furthermore, since the distances between the signal contact 30S and the ground contact 30G and the filter 60 can be reduced, the area of the mounting surface of the circuit board CB, that is, the dimension of the circuit board CB can be reduced.

  Further, as described above, the portion constituted by the contact insulator 20, the signal contact 30S, the ground contact 30G, the rotary actuator 40, and the metal fitting 45 is the same structure as a normal type FPC connector that does not incorporate the filter 60. The FPC connector 10 of the embodiment has a structure in which an electronic component insulator 50, a filter 60, and a shield member 70 are combined with an existing FPC connector (contact insulator 20, signal contact 30S and ground contact 30G, rotary actuator 40, metal fitting 45). It can be said. Therefore, when there is a request to obtain output signals having various electrical characteristics, it is only necessary to prepare various electronic component insulators 50 (while the contact insulator 20 is shared). This can be done while controlling costs and capital investment.

Next, a second embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. It should be noted that the same members as those in the first embodiment are not given and detailed description thereof is omitted.

As shown in the figure, an insertion recess 111 is formed in the front half of the insulator 110, and a through long hole 112 that penetrates the insulator 110 in the vertical direction is provided in the rear part of the insulator 110. Four fitting recesses (supporting portions) 113 are formed side by side in the left-right direction on the lower surface of the rear wall of the insulator 110 (the portion located immediately after the through long hole 112). Furthermore, a large number of contact mounting grooves 114 extending in the front-rear direction are formed on the central wall of the insulator 110 (the portion located immediately before the through long hole 112) and the bottom surface of the insertion recess 111. Further, a fitting hole 115 and a tail portion insertion hole 116 that penetrate the insulator 110 in the vertical direction are formed in the left and right side portions of the insulator 110 side by side.
A pair of fitting pieces 121 and tail portions 122 project from the left and right sides of the metal shield member 120 as a pair.

The left and right rotation support shafts 41 of the rotary actuator 40 are rotatably fitted, the insertion pieces 46 of the metal fittings 45 are inserted into the left and right metal fitting recesses 25, and the shield member 120 is put on the upper surface of the insulator 110. Assembling is performed by fitting the fitting piece 121 into the fitting hole 115 and inserting the tail portion 122 into the tail portion insertion hole 116.
When the FPC connector 100 assembled in this way is placed on the upper surface of the circuit board CB (not shown), the lower end portion of the signal terminal 62 located on the front side of each filter 60 as in the first embodiment.

The lower end portion of 63 is placed on the ground pattern GP (a portion extending in the left-right direction), and the lower end portions of the left and right tail portions 122 of the shield member 120 are placed on the left and right end portions (L-shaped portions) of the ground pattern GP. Therefore, in this state, soldering between the tail portion 33 of each signal contact 30S and the corresponding circuit pattern SP1, soldering between the tail portion 33 of each ground contact 30G and the corresponding ground pattern GP, and left and right tail portions 122 are performed. When the soldering of the lower end of each and the left and right ends of the ground pattern GP is performed simultaneously, the signal contact 30S, the ground contact 30G, and the shield member 120 are mounted on the circuit board CB, and each filter 60 held by the insulator 110 is also mounted. The connection state between the signal terminal 62 and the circuit pattern SP1, the connection state between the signal terminal 61 and the circuit pattern SP2, and the connection state between the ground terminal 63 and the ground pattern GP are maintained.

  In the FPC connector 100 according to the second embodiment described above, the signal insulator 30S and the ground contact 30G as well as the filter 60 are supported by the single insulator 110.

Further, the signal terminal 62 and the circuit pattern SP1, the signal terminal 61 and the circuit pattern SP2, and the ground terminal 63 and the ground pattern GP of each filter 60 may be soldered.
Furthermore, the tail 33 of the signal contact 30S and the lower end of the signal terminal 62 are not connected to a common pattern (circuit pattern SP1), but instead the tail 33 of the signal contact 30S and the signal terminal 62 are directly brought into contact with each other. May be conducted. In this way, there is almost no possibility of external noise entering or leaking outside while the electric signal flows from the tail 33 of the signal contact 30S to the filter 60. Therefore, the electric signal output from the filter 60 is The stability is extremely high and the electrical characteristics are intended.
