20120220171 | ELECTRICAL CONNECTOR - An electrical connector having a housing provided with an opening through which a flat circuit device is inserted into the housing, a plurality of conductive contacts arranged on the housing for contacting with connecting terminals on the flat circuit device in the housing, and a shell member mounted on the housing and provided therein with a holding portion for holding the flat circuit device in the housing and a manipulatable releasing portion for releasing the flat circuit device from holding by the holding portion, wherein the holding portion is constituted to extend from a portion of the shell member provided for covering one of opposite plate-shaped portions of the housing into an inside of the housing and to have an engaging projection formed thereon for selectively engaging with and disengaging from the flat circuit device. | 08-30-2012 |
20120238125 | ELECTRIC CONNECTOR - To allow a quick and reliable check with a simple structure as to whether a signal transmission medium has been inserted up to a predetermined position or whether a lock operation has been completed, an insulating housing is provided with lock checking device allowing a displaced state or an engaged state of a lock member to be visually checked. With this, the displaced state of the lock member or a state in which the signal transmission medium has fallen in an engagement positioning part when the signal transmission medium is inserted up to the predetermined position can be visually checked through the lock checking device, thereby allowing the quality of an insertion state of the signal transmission medium to be immediately determined. | 09-20-2012 |
20120289092 | ELECTRICAL CONNECTOR - An electrical connector including a housing to be mounted on an outer surface of a main circuit board, conductive contacts arranged in the housing and an actuator operative to take selectively a first station for releasing each of the conductive contacts from press-contact with one of connecting terminals on a flat circuit device inserted in the housing and a second station for causing each of the conductive contacts to maintain the press-contact with the connecting terminal, wherein the actuator has a particular outer portion thereof which faces upward on the outer surface of the main circuit board when the actuator takes one of the first and second stations and faces toward a direction in parallel with the outer surface of the main circuit board when the actuator takes the other of the first and second stations. | 11-15-2012 |
20120322293 | ELECTRIC CONNECTOR - To prevent, with a simple structure, deformation such as a twist of an actuator at the time of moving operation and easily check the operation state of an actuator to easily and reliably establish an electrical connection, inclined surface parts are provided at both end portions in a longitudinal direction in end faces on a rotational radial outer side of the actuator pinching or freeing a signal transmission medium to approximately uniformly act an entire pressing force of an operator over a full length of the actuator. With this, a situation that the actuator is pressed as being twisted is eliminated to achieve an excellent action of pinching the signal transmission medium and an easy and reliable visual check of the state of rotation of the actuator. | 12-20-2012 |
20130059476 | ELECTRICAL CONNECTOR - A simple structure capable of preventing a cam part of an actuator from coming out of position when the actuator is in an open position. The cam part | 03-07-2013 |
