20200412033 | GROUND TERMINAL - It is aimed to make a ground terminal easily broken even if forces are applied to the ground terminal from various directions. A ground terminal ( | 2020-12-31 |
20200412034 | METHOD OF INTERCONNECTING PRINTED CIRCUIT BOARDS - A method of interconnecting first and second printed circuit boards using a float connector with a contact assembly that includes installing a first guide member onto the first printed circuit board with the float connector in an open non-compressed position, after installing the first guide member onto the first printed circuit board, installing a second guide member onto the second printed circuit board with the float connector in the open non-compressed position, and compressing the first and second printed circuit boards toward one another to move the float connector from the open non-compressed position to a compressed position until contact ends of the contact assembly of the float connector are exposed outside of the first and second guide members, respectively, thereby electrically connecting the contact ends to the first and second printed circuit boards, respectively, for electrical connection between the first and second printed circuit boards through the float connector. | 2020-12-31 |
20200412035 | PRESS-FIT TERMINAL - A press-fit terminal includes a press-fit portion to be inserted into a through hole of a circuit board. The press-fit portion includes a plurality of protruding portions extending outward from a cross-sectional center of the press-fit portion, and a distance between an outer edge of each of the protruding portions and the cross-sectional center is continuously decreased toward the distal end of the press-fit portion. | 2020-12-31 |
20200412036 | Circuit Arrangement Consisting Of Two Interconnected High-Frequency Components - A circuit arrangement having two interconnected high-frequency components, namely a first component and a second component, is described. A connection for transferring high-frequency signals is arranged between the first component and the second component. The connection includes at least one inner conductor, which is at least partially enclosed by an outer conductor. The inner conductor is connected to the first component and to the second component in order to transfer high-frequency signals. The second component includes a contact surface on a connecting surface and the inner conductor is pressed using a pressure force onto the contact surface, to establish a high-frequency connection between the first component and the second component. | 2020-12-31 |
20200412037 | ELECTRICAL CONNECTOR - A connector includes an insulative housing having opposite upper and lower surfaces with a plurality of passageways extending therethrough, and a plurality of contacts retained in the corresponding passageways, respectively. Each contact includes a primary part and a secondary part discrete from each other. The primary part includes a first main body with a first spring arm extend upwardly through the upper surface for mating with the CPU, and a first soldering section around the lower surface. The secondary part includes a second main body with a second spring arm contacting the first main body, and a second soldering section around the lower surface. A solder ball is attached to the first soldering section and/or the second soldering section. | 2020-12-31 |

20200412039 | MULTIPOLAR CONNECTOR - A multipolar connector includes a first connector and a second connector. The first connector includes inner terminals arranged in columns and an insulating component holding the inner terminals. The second connector includes inner terminals arranged in columns and an insulating component holding the inner terminals. One of the first connector and second connector further includes an outer terminal connected to the ground potential and held by the insulating component. A shielding component extends from the outer terminal along a direction in which the columns of inner terminals extend and is held by the insulating component, and the shielding component is located between adjacent columns of inner terminals when the inner terminals of the first connector and second connector are in contact and engaged with each other. Compared with the related art, the multipolar connector of the present disclosure does not need to form the shielding component by separately insert-molding. | 2020-12-31 |
20200412040 | ELECTRICAL CONNECTOR WITH MATE ASSIST HAVING FEEDBACK - A connector has a housing configured to mate with a second housing, a pair of slide members movably mounted on the housing, and a lever pivotably attached to the housing and slidably coupled to the slide members. Each slide member has a cam groove in a side surface which provides an angled lead-in surface into the cam groove and cam surfaces engageable with a cam follower post of the second housing. A blocking shoulder partially blocking an opening of the cam groove to prevent entry of the cam follower post unless the cam follower post is in a correct position. When the cam follower post engages the angled lead-in surface, this provides a visual and tactile indication to a user that the connector is ready to be mated with the second housing. | 2020-12-31 |
