Connector

摘要

A connector includes a housing having an insertion section into which a connection end of a sheet-shaped connection target is inserted, and a plurality of contacts held by the housing so as to extend in an insertion direction of the connection target and be aligned along a direction across the insertion direction of the connection target, wherein each contact to be mounted by soldering on the top surface of the mounting board on a side of insertion of the connection target has at its end on the side of insertion of the connection target a surface of flat shape to be mounted on the top surface of the mounting board, and a sloping surface which is inclined at a predetermined angle of less than 90 degrees with respect to the surface to be mounted for guiding the connection end of the connection target to the insertion section.

主权项

1. A connector mounted on a top surface of a mounting board, comprising:
a housing having a front opening and an recess-shaped insertion section into which a connection end of a flexible sheet-shaped connection target is inserted through the front opening, a ceiling portion of the recess-shaped insertion section being closed by the housing; and a plurality of contacts held by the housing so as to extend in an insertion direction of the connection target and be aligned along a direction across the insertion direction of the connection target, wherein each of the plurality of contacts to be mounted by soldering on the top surface of the mounting board on a side of insertion of the flexible sheet-shaped connection target includes a front end portion protruding forward from the front opening of the housing, the front end portion having a surface of flat shape to be mounted on the top surface of the mounting board and a sloping surface which is inclined at a predetermined angle of less than 90 degrees with respect to the surface to be mounted for guiding the connection end of the connection target to the recess-shaped insertion section, the front end portion with the surface of flat shape to be mounted and the sloping surface protruding forward from the front opening of the housing, the sloping surface having a first end and a second end that is closer to the front opening than the first end, and the first end of the sloping surface is adjacent to the surface of flat shape, such that during an insertion of the flexible sheet-shaped connection target into the connector, when the connection end of the flexible sheet-shaped connection target comes contact with the first end of the sloping surface while in contact with the top surface of the mounting board, the connection end of the flexible sheet-shaped connection target is guided by the sloping surface and is inserted into the recess-shaped insertion section through the front opening.
