- a movable connector having more contacts can be provided by providing a connector characterized in that the contact portions are arranged in a staggered manner.
- the present invention further provides a connector characterized in that both of the above-mentioned studs are formed in the same housing and regulates the movement of the protruding portion in both the insertion and removal directions of the connector.
- a movable connector that is effective in both the insertion and removal directions can be provided.
- FIG. 1 shows a conventional movable connector
- FIG. 2 is a perspective view of the entire connector of the present invention.
- FIG. 3 is a perspective view of the periphery of a fixing member of the connector of the present invention.
- FIG. 4 is a perspective view including a cross section of the connector of the present invention.
- FIG. 5 is a sectional view of the connector of the present invention.
- FIG. 6 is a view showing another embodiment of the connector of the present invention. (Best mode for carrying out the invention)
- FIG. 2 is a perspective view showing the entire connector of the present invention.
- the housing includes a housing (10) (hereinafter, referred to as a fixing portion) fixed to the substrate, and a projection (20) that fits into a recess of a corresponding connector.
- the protruding portion (20) is supported by the fixing portion (10) via the contact (30), but the relative position and angle of the protruding portion (20) with respect to the fixing portion (10). Can vary slightly. That is, the protruding portion (20) is movably supported by the fixed portion by the elastic deformation of the contact (30). Further, the fixing portion (10) is fixed to the substrate by the fixing member (90).
- the protrusion (20) is of a so-called right angle type which is arranged parallel to the substrate.
- FIG. 3 shows the relationship between the protruding portion (20) and the fixing portion (10) of the connector of the present invention.
- FIG. 3 is a perspective view showing the vicinity of the fixing member (90) of the connector shown in FIG. 1.
- the fixing member (90) is housed in the fixing part (10). It is located on both sides of the protrusion (20) (only one side is shown in the figure).
- the fixing portion (10) is fixed to the substrate and can be fixed so as not to interfere with the protruding portion (20).
- FIG. 4 is a perspective view including a cross-sectional view parallel to the pull-out direction of the stopper of the present invention
- FIG. 5 is a cross-sectional view.
- arrows A and B indicate the direction in which the protrusion receives the force from the female connector when the connector is connected, and the direction in which the protrusion receives the force from the female connector when the connector is pulled out.
- the contacts (30) are arranged in a staggered manner. Therefore, since there is a contact exposed on one side of the projection and a contact exposed on the other side, the arrangement of the stopper is also different on both surfaces of the projection (20).
- the contact (30) displayed on the cross section shown in FIG. 4 is an example of the contact exposed to the board side
- the cross section shown in FIG. 5 shows the contact (30) on the side opposite to the board. The exposed contacts are displayed.
- a stopper for stopping the projecting portion when inserting the connector, which is one of the constituent elements of the present invention, is indicated by reference numeral (40) in FIGS.
- the stop is hereinafter referred to as a protrusion stop (40).
- a part of the contact (30) is accommodated in the protruding portion (20) as shown in FIGS. 4 and 5, and the elasticity is particularly enhanced by the elastic portion (70) curved in a “U” shape. Is occurring.
- the protruding portion (20) is engaged with and fixed to the contact (30), and the engaging portion is indicated by reference numeral (60).
- the engaging portion (60) is formed with irregularities at the portions where the contact and the protruding portion engage, and the protruding portion (20) and the contact (30) are formed by engaging these concavities and convexities. Fixed. Further, the contact (30) has a protruding portion so as to be fixed to the fixing portion (10). This is fixed by the member indicated by reference numeral (120) as shown in FIG.
- the contact (30) is "pulled” by the fixed part (10).
- the protruding portion (20) is accommodated in the corresponding female connector, but the portion fixing the connector is substantially a contact (30) and the corresponding female connector.
- the fixed part (10) moves in the direction of arrow A, but the protruding part (20) moves in the direction of arrow B relative to the fixed part (10) in a state housed in the female connector.
- the elastic part (70) absorbs this "pulling force" in response to the "pulling” by the fixing part (10), so the protruding part (20) is pulled out leaving the female connector.
- the stopper (50) of the contact portion comes into contact with the fixed portion (10). Therefore, the protruding part (20) or contact (30) can resist the unplugging and unplugging of the connector by the contact part stopper (50), so that the protruding part (20) or contact (30) is fixed. Pull out from the female connector together with the part (10).
- the protrusion (20) is supported by the fixed portion (10) via the contact (30), which is connected to the contact and the protrusion as described above. Engaging at an engaging portion (60) provided in the portion.
- the contacts are staggered as indicated by reference numeral (80) in FIG. Have been.
- two types of contacts are required.
- the contacts exposing the contact points with the contacts of the female connector on the board side surface of the protruding part are shown in the cross section shown in Fig. 4.
- the contact (the contact shown in the foreground in the figure) is the part that comes into contact with the contact of the female connector, the engaging part (60), and the elastic part from the bottom to the top in the figure. (70), and a portion that comes into contact with the protrusion stopper (40).
- the contact where the contact with the contact of the female connector is exposed on the side opposite to the board of the protruding part has the structure as shown in Fig. 5, and is viewed from the board side of the contact. (That is, from the bottom to the top in the figure), the part of the protrusion that comes into contact with the stopper (40), the elastic part (70), the engagement part (60), and the part that contacts the female connector contact in this order. Lined up.
- the present invention is not limited to this.
- the part that comes into contact with the protrusion stopper (40) is a part of the contact, but the fixing part (10) is extended and appropriate. It may be formed in a shape to be the contacting portion.
- FIG. 6 shows a structure having only the protrusion stopper (40).
- the stopper (40) exhibits an effect when the connector is inserted.
- an embodiment having only a contact portion stopper is also conceivable.
- the present invention focuses mainly on the shape of the contact, and by devising this shape, it is brought into contact with the housing portion, and the stopper function can be secured.
- the movable connector can be applied without providing a separate stopper by providing the stopper in the housing in both directions.
