Connector for electric apparatus

摘要

A connector for an electric apparatus has a case and a base which are engaged to each other or integrally formed. The base has an elastic hook and a latch formed integrally on its bottom surface for engaging both edge parts of a rail so as to mount the connector removably to the rail. The case has side surfaces extended from the lower edges to provide extended members for covering both side surfaces of the elastic hook for providing protection against damage when the connector is accidentally dropped. Protrusions may be provided on the bottom surface of the base between the extended members and the elastic hook for limiting twisting deformation of the elastic hook. The bottom surface of the elastic hook has a curved portion for relieving any impact force that may be damaging. <IMAGE>
