Connector with force multiplying mechanism

摘要

A connector with a force multiplying mechanism includes first and second fixed connectors (F1, F2) which are arranged side by side and each of which includes cam followers (17, 18), and first and second lever connectors (L1, L2) which are individually connectable to the respective fixed connectors (F1, F2) and each of which includes a rotatably provided lever (20, 70) and is connectable to the corresponding one of the fixed connectors (F1, F2) by a force multiplying action produced by rotating the lever (20, 70) while the cam followers (17, 18) and the lever (20, 70) are engaged directly or indirectly via a slider (19). The first and second fixed connectors (F1, F2) are so arranged that surfaces where the cam followers (17, 18) are formed are perpendicular to each other.

1. A connector with a force multiplying mechanism, comprising:
at least first and second fixed connectors arranged substantially side by side and first and second cam followers provided on surfaces of the respective first and second fixed connectors; and at least first and second lever connectors individually connectable to the respective fixed connectors and provided respectively with first and second displaceable levers, the lever connectors being connectable to the corresponding fixed connector by a force multiplying action produced by displacing the respective lever while the respective lever engages the respective cam follower; wherein the surface of the first fixed connector that has the first cam follower is aligned substantially perpendicular to the surface of the second fixed connector that has the second cam follower.
