Abstract:
A rigid-flex PCB includes at least one rigid PCB (RPCB) and at least one flexible PCB (FPCB). Each RPCB has a connection section; first and second sections separately extended from two lateral edges of the connection section and having at least one FPCB bonding side each; and a weakening structure formed along each joint of the connection section and the first and second sections. Each FPCB has a bending section corresponding to the connection section on the RPCB; first and second sections separately extended from two lateral edges of the bending section and having at least one RPCB bonding side each corresponding to the FPCB bonding sides of the first and second sections of the RPCB. When a proper pressure is applied against the weakening structures, the RPCB may be easily bent broken at the weakening structures to remove the connection section therefrom.

Disclosed is a flat signal transmission cable with bundling structure, including at least one flexible circuit. The flexible circuit includes a plurality of clustered flat cable components that are formed by slitting in a direction parallel to extension direction of the flexible circuit to impose free and independent flexibility for bending to each clustered flat cable component. At least one bundling structure is formed on a lateral side edge of a predetermined clustered flat cable component of the cluster section of the flexible circuit. The bundling structure forms a fastening section. When the clustered flat cable components of the cluster section of the flexible circuit are stacked to form a bundled structure, the bundling structure bundles the plurality of clustered flat cable components and is secured by being fastened by the fastening section.

The first flexible circuit substrate has a first surface forming a first conductor layer and an insulation layer, and the second flexible circuit substrate has a first surface forming a second conductor layer and an insulation layer. A bonding material layer is applied at a predetermined section between the first flexible circuit substrate and the second flexible circuit substrate to bond the first and second flexible circuit substrates together in such a way to maintain a predetermined spacing distance between the first and second flexible circuit substrate and forming a gapped segment at sections where no bonding material is applied. The first and second flexible circuit substrates form a cluster section within the gapped segment, which has opposite ends respectively forming first and second connected sections each of which forms a connection plug or is provided with a connector.

Abstract:
A shielded insertion and connection structure is provided for a flat cable connector, including a receiving housing and a hold-down member. The receiving housing forms a receiving compartment and two side walls formed at opposite ends of the receiving compartment. The hold-down member has opposite ends that respectively form pivot structures for pivotally coupling the hold-down member to the side walls and rotating between an open position and a holding position. The hold-down member is made of metal and the receiving housing is at least partly made of metal to form a conduction section, which is connected to a grounding terminal. When the hold-down member is at the open position and a circuit flat cable is inserted into the receiving compartment, the hold-down member is operated to depress down and hold the circuit flat cable and the hold-down member is put in electrical connection with the grounding terminal through the conduction section.

Abstract:
A bundled flexible circuit cable with water resistant structure is provided, in which a flexible substrate forms a cluster section having a lap section. In the lap section, a plurality of flat cable components that collectively form the cluster section is arranged to stack by substantially paralleling each other and corresponding up and down and is bonded and positioned by being applied with an adhesive material. The flat cable components are enclosed by a water resistant component at the lap section, whereby water, liquids, and contaminants are prevented from moving through gaps present in the bundled flexible substrate to get into the enclosure of an electronic device so as to realize protection against water, humidity, and dust. A tubular member or a wrapping member is further provided to fit over a section of the cluster section other than the lap section in order to facilitate extension through a holed mechanism device, such as a hinge, and to improve resistance against flexing and bending. The adhesive material can be a material containing conductive particles therein. Further, the substrate of the flexible circuit cable can be of such a design that a shielding layer is included and in electrical connection with a grounding line, whereby the shielding layer enclosing each of the lapped flat cable components in the water resistant structure is electrically connected to the water resistant component containing a conductive substance or the device enclosure to realize protection against electromagnetic interference.
