Further, the terminal holding portion 36 and the terminals 10 held by the terminal holding portion 36 are arranged so as to be arranged at equal intervals in the longitudinal direction (that is, the left-right direction) of the housing 30.

The movable shutter portion 50 covers a part of the opening 34 of the insertion recess 32 in a state where the mating substrate 201 is not inserted. Further, the movable shutter portion 50 is provided so as to be movable with respect to the housing 30. When the mating substrate 201 is inserted, the movable shutter portion 50 is pushed by the mating substrate 201 and moves substantially rearward, and is configured to come into contact with the rear surface of the mating substrate 201 inserted into the insertion recess 32. The movable shutter portion 50 has a contact body 60 and a support body 70. The contact body 60 is made of a material such as a resin having elasticity and non-conductive property (for example, silicone rubber), and has a substantially triangular columnar appearance. The support 70 movably supports the abutting body 60. Although the details will be described later, the contact body 60 has a function of contacting the mating terminal 210 and cleaning the mating terminal 210 when the mating substrate 201 is inserted into the insertion recess 32.

FIG. 6 is a perspective view of the contact body 60. The contact body 60 is formed with a cleaning portion 61, a contact portion 62, an upper surface 63, a rear surface 64, and a lower surface 65 as facing surfaces. The cleaning unit 61 is a flat surface formed on the front surface of the contact body 60, and abuts dust adhering to the mating terminal 210 to the mating terminal 210 for cleaning. The cleaning unit 61 may be formed not by a flat surface but by a side that abuts on the mating terminal 210. The contact portion 62 is an inclined surface that connects the front surface of the contact body 60 and the upper surface 63. The contact portion 62 is a surface that first contacts the mating substrate 201 when the mating substrate 201 is inserted. The lower surface 65 faces the housing 30 as shown in FIG.

FIG. 7 is a perspective view of the support 70. The support 70 is formed by press working (punching and bending) using a metal material such as Corson alloy, titanium alloy, or phosphor bronze having elasticity and heat resistance. The support body 70 has a contact body support portion 71, a support spring portion 72, a fixing portion 73, a spring connection portion 75, and a substrate mounting portion 74.

The contact body support portion 71 is a portion that supports the contact body 60, and has a flat plate-like structure that penetrates the contact body 60 in the longitudinal direction (that is, the left-right direction). For example, the contact body support portion 71 and the contact body 60 are integrated by insert molding. The support spring portion 72 is a portion that makes the abutting body 60 movable in a substantially front-rear direction by elastically deforming, and has a substantially S-shaped structure in a side view.

The fixing portion 73 is a portion for fixing the support 70 to the housing 30, and is embedded inside the housing 30. For example, the fixing portion 73 and the housing 30 are integrated by insert molding. The fixing portion 73 is formed in a flat plate shape that is long in the longitudinal direction. Further, both ends of the fixing portion 73 in the longitudinal direction are bent so that the tip portions face rearward. Further, a spring connecting portion 75 to which the supporting spring portion 72 is connected is formed at the front portions of both ends in the longitudinal direction of the fixing portion 73. Each spring connecting portion 75 projects outward in the longitudinal direction from the front portions of both ends in the longitudinal direction of the fixing portion 73. The board mounting portion 74 is a portion used for mounting the support 70 to the main board 101 by soldering, and is provided on the lower side of the front portion, the left portion, and the right portion of the fixing portion 73, respectively. Each substrate mounting portion 74 has a substantially flat plate-like structure, and is formed by bending the base portion of a projecting piece protruding downward from the fixing portion 73 by 90 degrees.

The support body 70 has the contact body 60 so as to be urged toward the partner board 201 based on the springiness of the support spring portion 72 when the mating board 201 is inserted into the insertion recess 32. It has a function of supporting the housing 30. Further, the support 70 also has a function of fixing the housing 30 to the main board 101.

Here, as shown in FIG. 2, the housing 30 faces the lateral wall portions 38 formed at both ends in the longitudinal direction and the side wall portions 38 formed on the contact body 60 side while being separated from the lower surface 65 of the contact body 60. It has a contact surface 40. A side wall upper surface 39 is formed on the side wall portion 38. The contact surface facing surface 40 is located behind the opening 34, and forms the upper surface of the rear portion of the housing 30 between the side wall portions 38 on both sides. Further, the contact body facing surface 40 is formed below the upper surface 39 of the side wall. As shown in FIG. 5, the contact body facing surface 40 is not parallel to the side wall upper surface 39 of the side wall portion 38, and is inclined downward toward the direction in which the contact body 60 is separated from the mating substrate 201 (that is, substantially rearward). are doing. The contact surface facing surface 40 is in a parallel relationship with the lower surface 65 of the contact body 60 in a state where the mating substrate 201 is not inserted into the insertion recess 32.

FIG. 8 is a perspective view of a plurality of terminals 10 arranged in the housing 30. The terminal 10 is formed by press working using a conductive material such as metal. The terminals 10 come into contact with a plurality of mating terminals 210 formed on the back surface (that is, the rear surface) of the mating substrate 201 and are electrically connected. The number of terminals 10 housed in the housing 30 is, for example, 30.

As shown in FIG. 8, each terminal 10 includes a skew portion 11, a terminal spring portion 12, a terminal fixing portion 13, a conductive contact portion 14, and a contact portion 15. The slanted portion 11 is a portion slanted so as to parry the mating substrate 201 inserted into the insertion recess 32 downward, and has a substantially flat plate-like structure in which the tip portion is narrowed in a V shape. The terminal spring portion 12 is a portion that imparts springiness to the terminal 10 by being elastically deformable, and has a substantially S-shaped structure in a side view. The terminal spring portion 12 may have an arbitrary structure that can impart springiness. For example, a substantially J-shaped terminal spring portion having one bent portion may be adopted instead of a substantially S-shaped portion having two bent portions. The terminal fixing portion 13 is a portion for fixing the terminal 10 to the housing 30, and has a substantially flat plate-like structure extending in the vertical direction. The conductive contact portion 14 is a portion that electrically connects the circuit formed on the surface (that is, the upper surface) of the main substrate 101 and the terminal 10, and has a substantially flat plate-like structure extending in the front-rear direction. The contact portion 15 is a portion that comes into contact with the mating terminal 210, and is bent in a dogleg shape so that the contacting side protrudes.

9 to 12 show the movement of the movable shutter portion 50 when the mating substrate 201 is inserted into the insertion recess 32 of the connector 1. In addition, in FIGS. 9 to 12, the cutting position of the cross section of the connector mounting body 100 and the mating substrate 201 is the same as the cutting position of the cross section of the connector 1 shown in FIG.

As shown in FIG. 9, the mating substrate 201 is inserted into the connector 1 in a direction inclined with respect to the normal direction N of the bottom surface (upper surface of the main substrate 101) of the connector 1. The alternate long and short dash line P in FIG. 5 indicates the direction in which the mating substrate 201 is inserted into the connector 1. The mating substrate 201 is inserted into the insertion recess 32 of the connector 1 along the alternate long and short dash line P. It should be noted that it may be the connector mounting body 100 or the mating board 201 that moves at the time of insertion. That is, at the time of insertion, the connector mounting body 100 and the mating board 201 may be moved so as to be relatively close to each other.

When the mating substrate 201 approaches the insertion recess 32 relatively, as shown in FIG. 9, the mating substrate 201 of the movable shutter portion 50, specifically, the contact body 60, before reaching the insertion recess 32. It contacts the contact portion 62. The contact portion 62 is inclined so that its front end side descends with respect to the insertion direction of the mating substrate 201.

As shown in FIG. 10, as the mating substrate 201 moves toward the insertion recess 32, the rear portion of the end portion of the mating substrate 201 that is in contact with the contact portion 62 is the contact portion 62 of the contact body 60. push. Due to this pressing force, the contact body 60 moves downward and backward in the direction away from the mating substrate 201, that is, as shown by the arrow A in FIG. 10, against the urging force of the support spring portion 72.

Further, when the contact portion 62 of the contact body 60 is pushed downward by the mating substrate 201, the contact body support portion 71 supporting the contact body 60 is slightly elastic so as to be twisted in the counterclockwise direction. It is deformed and the abutting body 60 rotates slightly in the counterclockwise direction as shown by arrow B in FIG. As a result, while the contact body 60 is moving downward and backward, the lower surface 65 of the contact body 60 and the contact body facing surface 40 of the housing 30 come into surface contact with each other. Further, due to the structure of the support spring portion 72, the abutting body 60 is displaced downward as it goes backward. The contact surface facing surface 40 is inclined downward toward the rear so as to substantially follow the displacement trajectory of the contact body 60. Therefore, the abutting body 60 that comes into surface contact with the abutting body facing surface 40 can smoothly move further downward and backward while sliding on the abutting body facing surface 40.

The mating substrate 201 enters the insertion recess 32 while maintaining an inclined direction with respect to the normal direction N of the bottom surface of the connector 1 (the upper surface of the main substrate 101). When the mating substrate 201 enters the insertion recess 32, the cleaning portion 61 of the contact body 60 comes into contact with the mating terminal 210 of the mating substrate 201, as shown in FIG. Then, while the mating substrate 201 is moving toward the bottom side in the insertion recess 32, the cleaning portion 61 is maintained in contact with the mating terminal 210 by the urging force of the support spring portion 72. As a result, the cleaning unit 61 slides on the mating terminal 210. As the cleaning unit 61 slides on the mating terminal 210, the mating terminal 210 is wiped by the cleaning unit 61, and the mating terminal 210 is cleaned. That is, while the mating substrate 201 is moving in the insertion recess 32, the cleaning portion 61 is pressed against the mating terminal 210 by the support spring portion 72, so that the dust adhering to the mating terminal 210 is removed by the cleaning portion 61. This prevents dust from entering the insertion recess 32.

The mating terminal 210 of the mating substrate 201 that has entered the insertion recess 32 comes into contact with the contact portion 15 of the terminal 10 after being cleaned by the cleaning portion 61.

As shown in FIG. 12, when the end of the mating substrate 201 reaches the bottom of the insertion recess 32 and the insertion of the mating substrate 201 into the insertion recess 32 is completed, the contact body 60 is placed on the rear surface of the mating substrate 201. Of these, the portion above the portion where the mating terminal 210 is formed is in contact with the portion. The length of the opening 34 of the insertion recess 32 in the front-rear direction is longer than the thickness of the mating substrate 201. Therefore, after the mating substrate 201 is inserted, a gap G1 is formed between the rear surface of the mating substrate 201 and the wall surface of the insertion recess 32. The contact body 60 comes into contact with the mating substrate 201 so as to close the gap G1.

That is, the support spring portion 72 of the movable shutter portion 50 covers the mating body 60 with the mating body 60 so as to cover the gap G1 between the mating substrate 201 and the insertion recess 32 that exists after the mating substrate 201 is inserted into the insertion recess 32. It comes into contact with 201. Preferably, even after the mating substrate 201 is inserted into the insertion recess 32, the support spring portion 72 urges the mating body 60 so that the abutting body 60 presses the mating substrate 201. In this case, since the abutting body 60 is in close contact with the mating substrate 201, the effect of suppressing the ingress of dust is further enhanced.

As described above, the connector 1 of the first embodiment of the present invention has a mating terminal while the mating substrate 201 is moving toward the bottom side of the mating recess 32 when the mating substrate 201 is inserted into the insertion recess 32. The abutting body 60 that cleans the mating terminal 210 by abutting on the 210, and the abutting body 60 so that the abutting body 60 is urged toward the mating substrate 201 when the mating substrate 201 is inserted into the insertion recess 32. A support 70 for supporting the 60 to the housing 30 is provided. With this configuration, when the mating substrate 210 is inserted into the insertion recess 32, the dust adhering to the mating terminal 210 can be removed, and the mating terminal 210 can be kept clean. Therefore, it is possible to prevent dust from entering the insertion recess 32, and it is possible to prevent the occurrence of poor contact due to the dust being caught between the terminal 10 and the mating terminal 210. Further, in the connector 1 in which a plurality of terminals 10 are arranged at narrow intervals, conductive dust adheres so as to straddle two terminals 10 adjacent to each other, and the two terminals 10 are short-circuited through the dust. It is possible to suppress the short circuit.

Further, in the connector 1 of the first embodiment of the present invention, when the mating substrate 201 is not inserted into the insertion recess 32, the contact body 60 of the movable shutter portion 50 is at least a part of the opening 34 of the insertion recess 32. Covering. With this configuration, for example, when the mating substrate 201 is not inserted into the insertion recess 32 at the stage before assembling the electronic device module 200, it becomes difficult for foreign matter to enter the insertion recess 32.

Further, in the connector 1 of the first embodiment of the present invention, the contact body 60 is a cleaning portion 61 that contacts and cleans the mating terminal 220 and an inclined surface that contacts the mating substrate 201 inserted into the insertion recess 32. A contact portion 62 is provided. Then, when the mating substrate 201 is inserted into the insertion recess 32, the contact portion 62 is pushed by the mating substrate 201 and the contact portion 60 moves away from the mating substrate 201, and then the cleaning portion 61 hits the mating terminal 210. Contact. According to this configuration, the contact body 60 can be moved and the mating terminal 210 can be cleaned all at once by one action (one action) of inserting the mating substrate 201 into the insertion recess 32, and the mating terminal can be cleaned. The cleaning of 21 can be performed quickly and easily.

Further, in the connector 1 of the first embodiment of the present invention, when the mating substrate 201 is inserted into the insertion recess 32 and the abutting body 60 moves away from the mating substrate 201, it becomes a lower surface 65 of the abutting body 60. The contact surface facing surface 40 of the housing 30 comes into surface contact with each other. With this configuration, with the mating substrate 201 inserted into the insertion recess 32, dust enters the insertion recess 32 through between the lower surface 65 of the contact body 60 and the contact surface facing surface 40 of the housing 30. Can be suppressed.

Further, in the connector 1 of the first embodiment of the present invention, the contact body facing surface 40 of the housing 30 is inclined downward toward the direction in which the contact body 60 is separated from the mating substrate 201. In this way, by inclining the contact body facing surface 40 so as to substantially follow the displacement trajectory of the contact body 60 that is displaced downward while retreating, the contact surface 40 is brought into contact with the mating substrate 201 when it is inserted into the insertion recess 32. The body 60 can be smoothly moved away from the mating substrate 201.

Further, in the connector 1 of the first embodiment of the present invention, the contact body 60 covers the gap G1 between the mating substrate 201 and the insertion recess 32 after the mating substrate 201 is inserted into the insertion recess 32. With this configuration, it is possible to prevent dust from entering the insertion recess 32 through the gap G1 while the mating substrate 201 is inserted into the insertion recess 32.

Further, in the connector 1 of the first embodiment of the present invention, the insertion recess 32 is inclined from the opening side to the bottom side with respect to the normal direction of the bottom surface (upper surface of the main substrate 101) of the connector 1. It is extending to.

It should be noted that it may be the connector mounting body 300 or the mating board 401 that moves at the time of insertion.

When the mating substrate 401 approaches the insertion recess 32, as shown in FIG. 20, the mating substrate 401 first comes into contact with the contact portion 92a of the first contact body 90a. The front end side of the contact portion 92a is inclined so as to descend with respect to the insertion direction of the mating substrate 401.

As the mating substrate 401 moves toward the insertion recess 32, the posterior portion of the end portion of the mating substrate 401 in contact with the contact portion 92a pushes the contact portion 92a of the first contact body 90a. Due to this pressing force, the first contact body 90a opposes the urging force of the first support spring portion 98a and moves away from the mating substrate 401, that is, downward and backward as shown by the arrow A in FIG.

As a result, while the first contact body 90a is moving downward and backward, the lower surface 95a of the first contact body 90a and the first contact body facing surface 82a of the housing 80 come into surface contact with each other. Here, the first contact body facing surface 82a is inclined downward toward the rear so as to substantially follow the displacement locus of the first contact body 90a that is displaced downward toward the rear. Therefore, the first contact body 90a that is in surface contact with the first contact body facing surface 82a can smoothly move further downward and backward while sliding on the first contact body facing surface 82a. it can.

As shown in FIG. 21, when the mating substrate 401 further moves toward the insertion recess 32, the front side portion of the end portion of the mating substrate 401 comes into contact with the contact portion 92b of the second contact body 90b.

As the mating substrate 401 further moves toward the insertion recess 32, the rear portion of the end portion of the mating substrate 401 that is in contact with the contact portion 92a of the first contact body 90a is the first contact body 90a. Further push the contact portion 92a. As a result, the first contact body 90a further moves downward and backward. At the same time, the front side portion of the end portion of the mating substrate 401 in contact with the contact portion 92b of the second contact body 90b pushes the contact portion 92b of the second contact body 90b. Due to this pressing force, the second contact body 90b resists the urging force of the second support spring portion 98b and moves away from the mating substrate 401, that is, downward and forward as shown by an arrow C in FIG. Move to.

Further, when the contact portion 92b of the second contact body 90b is pushed downward by the mating substrate 401, the second contact body support portion 97b supporting the second contact body 90b is twisted in the clockwise direction. As shown by arrow D in FIG. 21, the second contact body 90b is slightly elastically deformed and rotates slightly in the clockwise direction. As a result, while the second contact body 90b is moving downward and backward, the lower surface 95b of the second contact body 90b and the second contact body facing surface 82b of the housing 80 come into surface contact with each other. Here, the second contact body facing surface 82b is inclined downward toward the front so as to substantially follow the displacement locus of the second contact body 90b which is displaced downward toward the front. Therefore, the second contact body 90b that is in surface contact with the second contact body facing surface 82b can smoothly move further downward and forward while sliding on the second contact body facing surface 82b. it can.

The cleaning portion 91b of the body 90b comes into contact with the mating terminal 410b formed on the front surface of the mating substrate 401. Since the first contact body 90a is pressed against the mating substrate 401 by the first support spring portion 98a, the cleaning portion 91a is pressed against the mating substrate 401 while the mating substrate 401 is moving toward the bottom side in the insertion recess 32. It slides on the terminal 410a. Further, since the second contact body 90b is pressed against the mating substrate 401 by the second support spring portion 98b, the cleaning portion 91b is while the mating substrate 401 is moving toward the bottom side in the insertion recess 32.

As shown in FIG. 23, when the end of the mating substrate 401 reaches the bottom of the insertion recess 32 and the insertion of the mating substrate 401 into the insertion recess 32 is completed, the first contact body 90a of the mating substrate 401 The second contact body 90b is in contact with the portion of the rear surface above the portion where the mating terminal 410a is formed, and the second contact body 90b is above the portion of the front surface of the mating substrate 401 where the mating terminal 410b is formed. It will be in contact with the part. As a result, the gap G2 formed between the rear surface of the mating substrate 401 and the wall surface of the insertion recess 32 is covered and closed by the first contact body 90a, and the front surface of the mating substrate 401 and the wall surface of the insertion recess 32 are closed.
