CONNECTOR FOR WEARABLE ELECTRONICS

摘要

An electrical connector is described which comprises a first unit, a second unit, each unit bearing an electrical contact, the first unit comprising a protruding portion (103), the second unit comprising a receiving portion (102), wherein both the protruding portion and the receiving portion have substantially planar matching shapes, the protruding portion is arranged to be insertable into the receiving portion along an axis substantially perpendicular to each substantially planar matching shape, and the protruding portion and the receiving portion are arranged to be rotatable relative to each other about the axis thereby bringing the electrical contacts into alignment. The connector is particularly suitable for use in wearable electronics and solves the problem of how to arrange a connector which is easy to connect up, particularly by the old or infirm.
