PRINTED CIRCUIT BOARD CONNECTOR

摘要

A connector housing (1) of a connector (1) is constituted by a lower housing (7), which is mounted on a printed circuit board (2) , and an upper housing (8) connected to the lower housing (7) in such a manner as to be able to perform shifting movement with respect the housing (7). Further, terminals (6) are provided in such a way as to penetrate through a partitioning wall portion (8a) of the upper housing (8) and through a connecting block portion (7b) of the lower housing (7). At that time, tapered holes (7d) are provided in the connecting block portion (7b) . The terminals (6) are maintained in a state in which a bending deformation thereof caused by the shifting movement of the upper housing (8) is allowed. Consequently, when the connector (1) is connected to the mating connector (3), the connectors (1, 3) can be connected to each other by performing the shifting movement of the upper housing (8) thereby to concurrently absorb the positional displacement therebetween. Moreover, occurrences of problems, such as breakage and bend of the terminals (6) at that time, are prevented,
