Deployment to equipment becomes easy. Further, since the mounting portion having poor flexibility is also excluded from the photoelectric flexible wiring board force, the flexibility of the photoelectric flexible wiring board is improved and the manufacturing cost thereof is reduced. Furthermore, since it is not necessary to perform photoelectric conversion on the photoelectric flexible wiring board, the optical transmission characteristics of the wiring board are prevented from deteriorating, and effective EMC measures and signal deterioration measures are taken.

- the concave fixed portions 39 and 39 are formed on both sides of the photoelectric flexible wiring board 30 protruding into the guide hole 42 of the connector 40 with both ends thereof inserted into the guide hole 42 of the connector 40 and the guide hole of the connector 50, respectively.
- the projections 49, 49 and the projections 59, 59 on both sides projecting into the guide holes of the connector 50 are fitted, and the insertion end of the photoelectric flexible wiring board 30 is prevented from coming off by this fitting.
- FIG. 13 is a longitudinal side view of the main part of a photoelectric flexible wiring board showing still another embodiment of the present invention.
- This embodiment is different from the embodiment shown in FIGS. 8 to 12 in the photoelectric flexible wiring board 30.
- the photoelectric flexible wiring board 30 in this embodiment is similar to the embodiment shown in FIGS. 1 to 5 in that the optical transmission path 33 in the plate-shaped base 31 is arranged over the entire length of the one end force of the base to the other end.
- the signal input / output ports 36 at both ends are open in the longitudinal direction on both end surfaces of the plate-like base 31.
- both ends of the photoelectric flexible wiring board 30 are inserted in the guide holes of the connectors 40 and 50. It is attached to the inner surface of the guide hole so that it faces the signal input / output port 36 of.
- the optical transmission path 33 is provided over the entire length of the photoelectric flexible wiring board 30. That is, the optical transmission path 33 is arranged between both ends inserted into the connectors 40, 50 of the photoelectric flexible wiring board 30, and the optical elements 45, 55 and the driver 60, 70 has been eliminated. For this reason, the mounting cost in the photoelectric flexible wiring board 30 can be reduced, and the economical efficiency of the photoelectric flexible wiring board 30 can be improved. In addition, since photoelectric conversion is not performed on the photoelectric flexible wiring board 30, a decrease in optical transmission characteristics on the photoelectric flexible wiring board 30 is prevented, which is very advantageous for EMC countermeasures and signal deterioration countermeasures.
- the optical elements 45, 55 in the connectors 40, 50 may be arranged in a direction facing the end faces of the both ends of the optical transmission line 33 of the photoelectric flexible wiring board 30. It is also possible to arrange the optical transmission line 33 in a direction facing the optical transmission line 33 from a right angle direction, and the direction is not particularly limited. Accordingly, the direction of the end portion (signal input / output port) of the optical transmission line 33 of the photoelectric flexible wiring board 30 is determined according to these directions so as to face the optical elements 45 and 55.
- the optical transmission path 33 of the photoelectric flexible wiring board 30 is also arranged in one or a plurality of rows on the outer side of the row of the electric transmission path 32 and on one side edge of the wiring board in the above-described embodiment.
- the optical element 45 is provided at the side end of the connector 40.
- the optical element 45 is not limited to this position. You may arrange in the position where it was pinched. If the optical transmission line 33 is arranged outside the row of the electric transmission line 32 and the optical element 45 is provided at the side end of the connector 40, the space for the driver 60 on the mounting board 12 is secured. As described above, it becomes easy.
- FIG. 1 is a schematic side view of a wiring structure of a photoelectric flexible wiring board showing an embodiment of the present invention, and is a longitudinal side view.
- FIG. 2 is a perspective view showing a usage state of the photoelectric flexible wiring board and the connector in the wiring structure.
- FIG. 3 is a perspective view of the rear side force showing a usage state of the connector.
- FIG. 4 is a perspective view from the front side of the connector.
- FIG. 5 is a cross-sectional plan view of the connector, and is a view taken along line AA in FIG.
- FIG. 6 is a perspective view of a connector showing another embodiment of the present invention.
- FIG. 7 is a cross-sectional plan view of the connector, and is a view taken along the line BB in FIG.
- FIG. 8 is a schematic side view of a wiring structure of a photoelectric flexible wiring board showing still another embodiment of the present invention.
- FIG. 9 is a plan view of the wiring structure.
- FIG. 10 is a cross-sectional plan view of the same wiring structure, and is a cross-sectional view taken along line CC in FIG.
- FIG. 11 is a longitudinal sectional side view showing the relationship between the photoelectric flexible wiring board and the connector in the wiring structure.
- FIG. 12 is a longitudinal side view showing the relationship between the photoelectric flexible wiring board and the connector in the wiring structure.
- FIG. 13 is a longitudinal sectional side view of a main part of a photoelectric flexible wiring board showing still another embodiment of the present invention.
- FIG. 14 is a schematic side view of a wiring structure of a conventional photoelectric flexible wiring board and a longitudinal side view.
