THIN CONNECTOR

摘要

A thin connector includes a first connector portion having arrayed first contacts with first contact portions and a second connector portion having arrayed second contacts with second contact portions, each first contact including a first movable portion displaceable in the direction in which the first contacts are arrayed and a second movable portion connected to the first movable portion and displaceable in a direction orthogonal to the direction in which the first contacts are arrayed, the first contact portion being disposed in the second movable portion, the first connector portion and the second connector portion being fitted with each other by sliding relatively in the direction in which the first contacts and the second contacts are arrayed.

主权项

1. A thin connector comprising:
a first connector portion having a flat plate shape; and a second connector portion having a flat plate shape superimposed on and fitted with the first connector portion in a fitting plane, wherein the first connector portion includes a plurality of first contacts arrayed in a direction, each of the plurality of first contacts having a first contact portion, wherein the second connector portion includes a plurality of second contacts arrayed in a same direction as the direction in which the plurality of first contacts are arrayed, each of the plurality of second contacts having a second contact portion, wherein each of the plurality of first contacts includes a first movable portion having spring properties so as to be displaceable in the direction in which the plurality of first contacts are arrayed and a second movable portion being connected to the first movable portion, having spring properties so as to be displaceable in a direction orthogonal to the direction in which the plurality of first contacts are arrayed, the first contact portion being disposed in the second movable portion, and wherein the first connector portion and the second connector portion are superimposed on each other in the fitting plane and are slid relatively in the direction in which the plurality of first contacts are arrayed so that the second contact portion of each of the plurality of second contacts in the second connector portion comes in contact with the first contact portion of a corresponding first contact among the plurality of first contacts in the first connector portion while the first movable portion and the second movable portion of the first contact in the first connector portion are displaced, whereby the first connector portion and the second connector portion are fitted with each other, and a displacement amount of the first movable portion in the direction in which the plurality of first contacts are arrayed is smaller than a displacement amount of the second movable portion in the direction orthogonal to the direction in which the plurality of first contacts are arrayed.
