Connector engaging/disengaging device having carrier plates carrying cable connectors moved by the use of sliders

摘要

A connector engaging/disengaging device comprises a plurality of carrier plates, a pair of side blocks, and a pair of sliders. Each of the carrier plates has lock springs holding cable connectors thereon, and a pair of engaging bosses engaging with the sliders. The sliders have slider grooves engaging with the bosses. Each of the side blocks supports each of said carrier plates slidable in vertical direction, and guides each of said sliders in horizontal direction, and supports a printed circuit board having mating connectors thereon. When the sliders slide in the horizontal direction, slider grooves of the sliders push up or down the carrier plates to connect or disconnect cable connectors to the mating connectors.
