Description

  The present invention relates to a module socket that connects a module and a flexible printed wiring board by mounting the module so that the module is used so that the flexible printed wiring board is sandwiched between the modules.

For example, a module such as a camera module incorporating an image pickup device is required to be downsized as an electronic device such as a mobile phone is downsized. Naturally, a small camera module has been developed while having a high imaging function.
However, the camera module must be provided with functions such as a macro function by taking up as much volume as possible in order to achieve higher functionality.
Therefore, in developing a camera module socket for attaching the camera module to an electronic device or the like, it has been desired to reduce the volume of the socket as much as possible.

In some cases, the camera module socket is attached to the camera module at a position away from the main board in the electronic device. In such a case, as a method of attaching the camera module, there is a method in which a camera module socket is attached to a flexible printed wiring board and electrically connected to the main board with the flexible printed wiring board.
A conventional camera module socket of the type connected to such a flexible printed wiring board has been performed as disclosed in, for example, Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2006-0667445.
Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2006-067445 will be described as Conventional Example 1 below.
FIG. 5 is an explanatory perspective view of a conventional camera module socket 112 and camera module 111 as viewed obliquely from above.

The camera module 111 has a substantially cubic shape and a module main body 113 that includes a light receiving element and the like, and a lens that is provided on the upper surface side of the module main body 113 and takes in imaging light so that light is imaged on the light receiving element. Part 114. A plurality of contact pads 121 are provided on the periphery of the bottom surface of the module body 113 opposite to the lens portion 114 so that information as an electrical signal can be transmitted and received. Therefore, the contact pad 121 is provided as an electrical contact that can be electrically connected.
Further, the pair of opposing side surfaces of the module main body 113 are provided with cutout portions 115 on both sides so that the central portion protrudes from the lens portion 114 side toward the bottom surface side, and on the lens portion 114 side of the cutout portion 115. Is formed by projecting a projecting portion 120 so as to project further from the side surface. The protrusions 120 are locking protrusions for locking the camera module socket 112.

The camera module socket 112 includes a hollow connector body 122 having a bowl shape with an upper surface opened. A plurality of contact pins 124 are arranged at the four ends of the bottom surface of the connector main body 122. The contact pin 124 is disposed so that one end thereof can be abutted and connected to the abutting pad 121 of the camera module 111 which is inserted into the camera module socket 112 and fixed as a module connecting end 124b. The other end protrudes to the outside of the connector main body 122 from a hole drilled in four end portions of the bottom surface of the connector main body 122 where the contact pin 124 is located as a connection end portion 124a.
Further, a shield case 127 made of a thin metal plate and having a substantially rectangular tube shape is provided so as to cover the outer periphery of the side surface of the connector body 122. The shield case 127 has a spring force and is integrated with the connector body 122. Formed as follows.

  In the shield case 127, spring hooks 118 are provided at the upper ends of the side surfaces 127a and 127b facing the side surfaces of the module 111 where the protrusions 120 and 120 are provided, respectively, so as to protrude further upward. At the center of the spring hook 118, a locking hole 117 that is locked to the locking protrusion 120 of the module body 113 is formed. The spring hook 118 has a spring force, and when a force is applied to the outside so as to oppose the spring force, the spring hooks 118 are moved in a direction in which both spring hooks 118 open.

When the camera module 111 is inserted through the opening on the upper surface side of the camera module socket 112 formed in this way, the locking projection 120 pushes the spring hook 118 outward, and further the insertion proceeds, whereby the locking projection 120. Enters the locking hole 117 of the spring hook 118. The spring hook 118 returns to its original position by the urging force when the locking projection 120 enters the locking hole 117, and the locking projection 120 and the spring hook 118 are locked.
At this time, the contact pad 121 and the contact pin 124 of the camera module 111 are in contact with each other and are in an electrically connected state.

Then, the connection end portion 124a of the contact pin 124 protruding to the outside of the connector main body 122 is electrically connected to a contact portion provided in advance on the upper surface of the flexible printed wiring board by soldering or the like. And the camera module 111 are electrically connected.
JP 2006-067445

Since the contact pin 124 is provided in the contact locking hole 123 provided in the connector main body 122, the distance between the module connection ends 124b inserted and contacted is 0.58 [mm], and is made of a polymer resin. If the bottom surface 122a is made thin, the mechanical strength becomes insufficient, and it cannot be reduced below this, and it is difficult to reduce the overall height of the camera module socket.

  Therefore, in view of the above problems, an object of the present invention is to provide a module socket that realizes a further reduction in height in a module socket that is connected to a flexible printed wiring board.

  In this invention, at the time of module connection, in order to further reduce the distance from the bottom surface of the module to the flexible printed wiring board, the module contacts are arranged side by side on the center side of the bottom surface of the module socket.
