20090170357 | Connector having a locking mechanism excellent in operability - In a connector including a connector body capable of being connected to or disconnected from a connecting object in a first direction, the connector body has, in a second direction perpendicular to the first direction, a particular dimension greater than a dimension thereof in a third direction perpendicular to the first and second directions. A locking portion is coupled to the connector body for locking the connecting object. The the locking portion is adapted to release locking of the connecting object with movement thereof in the second direction. An operating portion is coupled to the connector body and adapted to engage with the locking portion. The operating portion is adapted to move the locking portion in the second direction according to movement thereof in the third direction. | 07-02-2009 |
20110207356 | CONNECTOR ASSEMBLY - A connector assembly comprises a first connector and a second connector configured to be mated with each other. The first connector includes a plurality of first contacts, a first housing and a first shell. The first contacts are arranged and retained in a pitch direction by the first housing The first housing is covered at least in part with the first shell The first shell includes a spring portion and a contact portion. The spring portion extends in the pitch direction. The spring portion is long in the pitch direction. The contact portion is supported by the spring portion so as to be movable in a direction perpendicular to the pitch direction. The second connector includes a second shell. The second shell is brought into contact with at least the contact portion of the first shell so that the first shell and the second shell are connected to each other when the second connector is mated with the first connector. | 08-25-2011 |
20120009821 | CONNECTOR - A connector is connectable to a cable having a plurality of signal wires and a drain wire. Each of the signal wires includes a signal conductor. The connector comprises a plurality of contacts, a holding member and a shell. The holding member is provided with an accommodating portion configured to accommodate an end part of the drain wire. The accommodating portion extends through the holding portion along a predetermined direction. The contacts configured to be connected to the signal conductors, respectively. The contacts are held by the holding member so that connection works between the contacts and the signal conductors are performable along the predetermined direction. The shell covers, at least in part, the holding member. The shell has a fixing portion exposed in the accommodating portion so that the end part of the drain wire is fixable to the fixing portion within the accommodating portion. | 01-12-2012 |
20130052849 | CARD EDGE CONNECTOR - To satisfy the demand for a reduction in height, provided is a technique for reducing a gap between a motherboard and a daughterboard in the state where the daughterboard is connected to the motherboard. A card edge connector is used to be mounted on a connector mounting surface of a mainboard to connect a memory module to the mainboard. The card edge connector includes a latch portion for pressing the memory module to be displaced in a direction away from the connector mounting surface, toward the connector mounting surface. The latch portion is configured to be elastically displaceable in the direction away from the connector mounting surface. | 02-28-2013 |
20140322960 | CONNECTOR ASSEMBLY - A connector assembly comprises a first connector and a second connector. The second connector is mateable with the first connector under any one of a normal state and a reversed state. The first connector comprises a first guide portion and a second guide portion while the second connector comprises a first normal guided-portion, a second normal guided-portion, a first reversed guided-portion and a second reversed guided-portion. When the second connector is mated with the first connector under the normal state, the first normal guided-portion and the second normal guided-portion are guided by the first guide portion and the second guide portion, respectively. When the second connector is mated with the first connector under the reversed state, the first reversed guided-portion and the second reversed guided-portion are guided by the first guide portion and the second guide portion, respectively. | 10-30-2014 |
