損したり、プラグピンを折つたりする危険もある。Connectors are known for connecting contacts connected to a card and plug pins connected, for example, to electrical leads. These connectors transmit, on the one hand, analog or logical signals of low voltage and current, and on the other hand, the voltage for the power supply of the power cord. In the power supply voltage, the voltage is small or the current is large. Current cards require the magnitude of the current to be increased in multiple steps in order to obtain the current to power the card. Conventionally, in order to increase the allowable current, a plurality of connector contacts were often used in combination rather than a single contact. However, in such a configuration, the number of points of use increases, so the connector tends to be large. This goes against the trend of connector miniaturization. The disadvantages of such conventional connectors are due to the fact that the same connector has both signal transmission and power supply voltage transmission functions. Furthermore, in the connector lζ, the supply voltage is transmitted before the signal transmission, and there is a time difference in which some voltages, such as the ground voltage, are transmitted before other voltages among the supply voltages. The need for sequential connections arises. Conventional connectors are only capable of making such staggered connections. Furthermore, when inserting or removing a card connector into or out of a rack plate receptacle by hand, it is normal to grasp the rack plate with your hands and shake it a few times to insert or pull out the plug pin. Even if the connector of the board is constructed so that the length of the plug pins can be changed to perform sequential time-staggered connections, there is a risk that the connections of the plug pins will not be made with a time difference as desired. In addition, there is also the risk of damaging the device or breaking the plug pin.

The power connector 3 functions to transmit only the power supply voltage, and the signal connectors 4, 5 transmit analog or logical control signals of the card 1. A rack plate 2 as a support fixes a receptacle 6 into which a power connector 3 is inserted and two receptacles 7 and 8 into which signal connectors 4 and 5 are inserted.

The pins are provided to engage with unillustrated contacts of the connector 3, and the individual pins have different lengths. The reason for this will be explained later. 2 and 3, the power receptacle 6 is constructed from a parallelepiped case 10 of plastic or the like, which allows the connector 3 and the receptacle 6 to be positioned without damaging pins such as 9. For alignment, the inner edge of the upper end has a beveled surface 11 as a positioning means.

位置を示す。A beveled surface 111 is also provided on the outer edge of the case of the connector 3 to facilitate similar alignment. The receptacle 6 further includes two attachments 12, 13 fixed to the receptacle 6, which have two holes 14, 15 through which screws for threading into the rack plate 2 are inserted. The number of pins 9 is, for example, eight, and these pins are built into the receptacle 6 and fixed to the rack plate near the bottom of the receptacle by reinforcing members 16. One reinforcing member is provided to compensate for the thickness of the rack plate. The bottom of the receptacle itself is provided with notches, such as 17, which are utilized for washing and cleaning the circuitry and the ends of the pins 9 along the surface of the rack plate 2. Advantageously, the receptacle 6 includes one ridge 18 on the surface between the bottom and top surfaces. This protrusion 18 is provided to engage with a corresponding slot in the case of the connector 3, thereby preventing the error of accidentally inserting the connector 3 in the wrong direction. FIG. 4 shows, on the one hand, the position of the power connector pin, e.g. pin 19, relative to the contact, e.g. contact 19, of the power connector 3, and on the other hand, the position of the signal connector pin, e.g. pin 21, relative to the contact, e.g.

２５，２６，９は夫々、記載の順に長さが増し、いずれ
もピン２２より長い。The shortest of the power connector pins 22 includes a contact area 23 with a corresponding contact of the power connector 3. Similarly, pin 21 has contact area 2 with contact 20 of the signal connector.
Contains 4. The distance between the contact areas 23 and 24 is D,
Let the distance between the ends of pins 22 and 21 be d. Distance D is about 37! T7lt, distance d is about 2.5? ! l and D
is greater than d. Therefore, when inserting the card 1 into the rack plate 2, the connection between the shortest pin of the power connector and the corresponding contact is made before a similar connection of the pins of the signal connector. Other power connector pins, such as pins 25, 26, and 9, increase in length in the order listed, and are all longer than pin 22.

かである。This is because the larger the cross section, the lower the electrical resistance, and the larger the power that each power connector pin can carry, the lower the electrical resistance. The longest pin 9 is connected to ground. That is, connector 3 first secures a ground connection before connectors 4, 5 start functioning as a signal connection. The next longest pin 26 after pin 9 then delivers the negative supply voltages, such as 15 volts and -12 volts. pin 22 and pin 2
5 respectively deliver a positive supply voltage of, for example, +5 volts and 1, +12 volts. Therefore, before signal connection, ground, -5 volts, -12 volts, +12 volts and +5
Bolt order (connection) is ensured. It is clear that the connection order can be easily changed by swapping the pin positions of the connector.

全ネジで固着するための２個の孔２９，３０を含む。Furthermore, according to FIG. 4, two attachments 27, 285, which are molded in the same way as the case of the connector 3, are provided, which are used to secure the connector 3 to the card 1 with a safety screw. holes 29 and 30.

The contact 19 corresponding to the pin 25 terminates in a bent contact end 34, such as a contact end 33 or 34, which is electrically connected to the contact 19 and stamped and formed at the same time as the contact 19.

The bent contact end 34 is shown in detail in FIGS. 4 and 5 together with contact elements such as elements 35 and pins 26. Two rows of contacts are arranged (according to FIGS. 3, 5 and 6). and the contact end 34 on the side remote from the card 1
It will be appreciated that the card 1 includes a curved second portion 36 and a portion 37 perpendicular to the card 1. The contact end 38 on the side closer to the card 1 is likewise bent at right angles to
It forms a part perpendicular to. Furthermore, a pin such as pin 2

Therefore, strict dimensional accuracy is not required when manufacturing the connector. The supply of voltage to the pins, for example pins 26, may take place in accordance with the known art via tracks provided on the rack plate and optionally welded to the pins, and by means of busbars.
