20080299832 | Connector - A connector which makes it possible to take out a holding member thereof from a housing without breaking the housing. The housing is formed by a main housing and a sub housing connected to the main housing. The main housing is formed with a hole having a contact portion-accommodating portion and a contact-inserting portion. In the sub housing, there is formed a clip-accommodating hole which is opposed to the contact portion-accommodating portion and the contact-inserting portion in the directions of insertion and removal of the contact, when the sub housing is connected to the main housing. The inner diameter of the clip-accommodating hole is set to be larger than the inner diameter of the contact portion-accommodating portion and that of the contact-inserting portion. The clip is accommodated in the clip-accommodating hole. | 12-04-2008 |

Terminal portions of the first and second signal contacts and the ground contacts are arranged in a row in the contact arranging direction, and press-fitting portions of the contracts for non-high-speed transmission are press-fitted in the housing along the direction of height of the housing, whereby they are disposed between the contacts portions and the terminal portions of the first and second signal contacts and the ground contacts. | 08-20-2009 |
20090209120 | CONNECTOR - A connector which makes it possible to have the soldered states of contacts thereof checked or have itself removed with ease. A row formed by terminal portions of first and second signal contacts and terminal portions of ground contacts is disposed rearward in the fitting/removing direction with respect to rows formed by terminal portions of contacts for non-high-speed transmission. The terminal portions of contacts for non-high-speed transmission are disposed between the contact portions and terminal portions of the first and second signal contacts and the ground contracts. The terminal portions of the first and second signal contacts and the terminal portions of the ground contacts are formed to have a surface-mount type planar shape. The terminal portions of the contacts for non-high-speed transmission are each formed to have a through hole insertion-type pin shape. | 08-20-2009 |
20090305534 | Connector - A connector comprises a plurality of ground contacts, a housing, a coupling portion, and a second connection portion. The ground contacts are provided with first connection portions, respectively, which are to be connected to drain lines of first cables, respectively. The housing holds the ground contacts so that each of the ground contacts extends along a first direction. The coupling portion is formed integrally with the ground contacts. The coupling portion couples the ground contacts so that the ground contacts are arranged in a second direction perpendicular to the first direction. The second connection portion is formed integrally with the coupling portion. The second connection portion is configured to be connected to a large-diameter line of a second cable different from the first cables. The second connection portion extends along the first direction and is larger than the first connection portion in the second direction. | 12-10-2009 |
20100048045 | Connector - A connector configured to be connected with a cable including a drain line, comprises a plurality of ground contacts, a housing holding the ground contacts, and a ground plate connected with the ground contacts. The ground plate has a first surface and a second surface and provided with a drain connection portion. The first surface is configured so that the cable is mounted on the first surface. The second surface is a back of the first surface. The drain connection portion is configured to be connected with the drain line and being formed on the second surface. | 02-25-2010 |
20100304610 | CONNECTOR - A shielded connector which makes a shell unnecessary while ensuring a shielding function. A housing holds a housing plurality of contacts each including a contact portion brought into contact with an associated one of contact portions of a plurality of mating contacts. The connector is provided with a shield member including a shield plate body which partitions the contact portions of the contacts into two groups, a first spring portion which is brought into contact with an inner wall surface of a shell of a mating connector, and a second spring portion which is brought into contact with the inner wall surface of the shell. | 12-02-2010 |
20110293223 | OPTICAL CONNECTOR APPARATUS - Provided is an optical connector apparatus comprising a connector which is connected to an electro-optical composite cable including an optical fiber and a metal conductor, and a connection object to be connected. The connector is provided with a ferrule which has a conductive portion on at least a part of the surface thereof. The connection object to be connected is provided with an electrically conductive connection member to be connected to the ferrule. The ferrule and the cable are connected by a crimping structure. When the ferrule is inserted in the connection member, the connector and the connection object to be connected are electrically and optically connected to each other. Provided is also an optical connector apparatus which comprises a connector having a plurality of ferrules having distances between the end of the ferrules and the conductive portions so that the timing of the connection of the connector to the object to be connected is delayed, and thus the optical connector apparatus is capable of hot swapping. The connection object to be connected can be a combination of an adapter and a mating connector, or an optical element and an adapter which holds the same, etc. | 12-01-2011 |
20140187075 | CONNECTOR - A connector includes a spring portion, a lock member and a movable member. When the movable member is forced to be moved from a non-operation position to an operation position, an operation portion of the movable member operates an operated portion of the lock member to move a lock portion of the lock member from a lock position to an unlock position. When the movable member is held at the operation position, a front end of the spring portion presses a pressed portion of the movable member to move the movable member towards the non-operation position. When the movable member is released, the movable member is moved back from the operation position to the non-operation position so that the operation portion stops to operate the operated portion to move the lock portion back to the lock position. | 07-03-2014 |
20140235109 | CONNECTOR - A connector has signal contacts and ground contacts, each of which includes a contact portion to be connected with a mating connector. In a predetermined plane, the contact portions of the signal contacts and the contact portions of the ground contacts are grouped and arranged into a first line and a second line. In the predetermined plane, four specific signal contact portions are surrounded by four specific ground contact portions. The four specific signal contact portions are the contact portions of the signal contacts constituting two pairs. The four specific ground contact portions are two of the contact portions of the ground contacts belonging to the first line and two of the contact portions of the ground contacts belonging to the second line. In the predetermined plane, a minimum distance between two of the specific ground contact portions is smaller than another minimum distance between one of the specific signal contact portions and one of the contact portions of the signal contacts other than the specific signal contact portions. | 08-21-2014 |
