Abstract:
A female connector downsized by downsizing female-side contacts. Each female-side contact portion is formed of a first connection portion having an arm portion extending from a base portion in a width direction, a first supporting portion integrally connected to one end of the arm portion, and a second connection portion having a second supporting portion integrally connected to the other end of the arm portion. The first and second supporting portions extend in a direction away from the arm portion, and then extend toward the central portion of the arm portion. When a male connector and the female connector are fitted, each male-side contact portion is received outside an associated female-side contact portion and then is moved inside therefrom. Then, the male-side contact portion is sandwiched by a first and second contact point portions formed respectively at the first and second point portions.
Abstract:
Preparation is made of first and second contact assemblies in each of which ends of a plurality of contacts are respectively coupled to a plurality of coupling portions of a carrier. The coupling portions of at least one of the first and second contact assemblies are bent so as to offset the contacts in a thickness direction of the carrier. Then, the first and second contact assemblies are combined together in a state where the carriers overlap each other and the contacts are aligned with and spaced apart from each other in the same plane. After integrating the contacts, the coupling portions are cut off. Then, the integrated contacts are collectively inserted into a shell.
Abstract:
An optical module is provided in which at least one of a surface light emitting device and a surface light receiving device is mounted on a positioning component on which optical fibers are positioned and mounted. The positioning component is made of an insulating resin and a plurality of lead frames that provide electrical connection are molded integrally with the positioning component. Each of the lead frames is flat plate and the plate surface of each of the lead frames serves as a first electrical connection surface and an edge face of each of the lead frames serves as a second electrical connection surface. The interconnection structure is simple and linear and is advantageous in high-frequency signal transmission.
Abstract:
A coaxial connector is adapted to hold a connection object having a ground conductor and a signal conductor and is adapted to be fitted to a mating connector. The coaxial connector has a shell for holding the connection object. The shell comprises a first shell portion having a barrel-shaped shell contact portion, a second shell portion having shell connecting portions, positioning portions for positioning the connection object so that a contact portion of the signal conductor of the connection object is located inside the barrel-shaped shell contact portion as seen in a fitting direction of the coaxial connector and the mating connector, and fixing portions for fixing the connection object.

Abstract:
A connector is disposed on a board in a first direction and includes a housing, a contact, and a movable. The housing is provided with a bottom surface facing the board and a through hole formed along the first direction. The contact is held in the through hole and has its end portion on a board side exposed at the bottom surface via the through hole. The movable terminal is formed as a separate member from the contact, disposed at a close position to the contact in the through hole, and movable in the first direction relative to the contact. One end of the movable terminal in the first direction is fixed to the board and projects from the bottom surface in accordance with movement of the movable terminal, and a projection amount of the one end changes depending on a position of the movable terminal in the first direction.
Abstract:
An antenna assembly includes an antenna body formed of a sheet metal, an electric cable, and a conductive film. The antenna body includes at least one crimp portion. The conductive film has a main portion and at least one connected portion extending from the main portion. The electric cable has a conductor portion 46. The at least one crimp portion is crimped to the conductor portion in a state that at least one connected portion lies between the conductor portion and the at least one crimp portion.
Abstract:
A socket contact includes a cylindrical sleeve, a plurality of cantilever-shaped spring pieces arranged in rotational symmetry with respect to the central line of the sleeve as a symmetric axis, and a base portion to which fixed ends of the plurality of spring pieces are fixed. The sleeve is movably mounted to the base portion, the plurality of spring pieces has bent portions between free ends and the fixed ends, the plurality of spring pieces is elastically deformed so that the free ends come close to each other when the sleeve is moved and covers the free ends, and a pin contact inserted among the plurality of spring pieces is sandwiched by the bent portions of the plurality of spring pieces elastically deformed by the moved sleeve, electrically connected, and held.
Abstract:
An antenna is configured to be soldered on a circuit board. The antenna comprises a main portion, at least one soldering terminal and at least one fixed portion. The main portion has a height in a vertical direction. The main portion is, at least in part, positioned below the soldering terminal in the vertical direction when the soldering terminal is soldered on the circuit board. The soldering terminal extends from the main portion along a horizontal plane perpendicular to the vertical direction. When the soldering terminal is soldered on the circuit board, the fixed portion is fixed on the circuit board at a location different from a location of the soldering terminal.
Abstract:
A device includes a first sealing member, a second sealing member, a first circuit member and a second circuit member. The first sealing member includes, as a base thereof, a first film formed of a film and includes a conductive portion made of conductor. The device is formed with a closed space. The closed space is enclosed by the first sealing member and the second sealing member and is shut off from an outer space located outside the device. The first circuit member and the second circuit member are shut in the closed space and include a first contact point and a second contact point, respectively. At least one of the first circuit member and the second circuit member includes an electrode. The conductive portion is in contact with the electrode in the closed space and is partially exposed to the outer space located outside the device.
