Connector and semiconductor testing device including the connector

摘要

A connector includes a first terminal. The first terminal includes a movable portion, and the movable portion has, on its tip side, a contact portion located on a course C of a case assembly. Further, the first terminal includes a fixed portion restricted from moving and located on a base side of the movable portion. The movable portion is elastically deformable to incline toward a side surface of an insertion hole while using the fixed portion as a fixed point. Further, the movable portion includes a hit portion between the contact portion and the fixed portion. The hit portion is located apart from the side surface of the insertion hole, and the hit portion is provided capable of hitting, midway during inclining of the movable portion toward the side surface of the insertion hole, against the side surface of the insertion hole.

主权项

1. A connector, the connector comprising:
a first terminal, the first terminal being formed into a plate-spring shape and being arranged to extend in an insertion direction of an electronic component to be connected to the connector; a second terminal, the second terminal being formed into a plate-spring shape; and a housing, the housing having an insertion hole formed therein, the insertion hole being formed such that the electronic component can be inserted therein and accommodating the first terminal; wherein:
the first terminal includes:
a first contact portion, the first contact portion being located on a course in the insertion hole through which the electronic component passes;a first movable portion, the first movable portion including the first contact portion on a tip side thereof and extending from the first contact portion toward a side surface of the insertion hole, the side surface being spaced apart from the course; anda first fixed portion, the first fixed portion being located on a base side of the first movable portion and restricted from moving;the first movable portion is elastically deformable to incline toward the side surface of the insertion hole, employing the first fixed portion as a fixed point of inclining;the first movable portion includes a hit portion between the first contact portion and the first fixed portion, the hit portion being located apart from the side surface of the insertion hole and being capable of hitting, midway during inclining of the first movable portion toward the side surface of the insertion hole, on the side surface of the insertion hole;the second terminal is arranged to face the first terminal across the course;the second terminal includes:
a second contact portion, the second contact portion being located on the course;a second movable portion, the second movable portion including the second contact portion on a tip side thereof and extending from the second contact portion toward another side surface of the insertion hole; anda second fixed portion, the second fixed portion being located on a base side of the second movable portion and restricted from moving;the first contact portion and the second contact portion have a positional difference in the insertion direction of the electronic component;the second contact portion being located at a deeper position in the insertion hole than that of the first contact portion;the first contact portion and the second contact portion respectively include guide portions, the guide portions extending in an opposite direction to the insertion direction of the electronic component and inclining to expand an interval between them, the guide portion of the second contact portion having a inclination angle with respect to the insertion direction smaller than the inclination angle of the guide portion of the first contact portion with respect to the insertion direction.
