Connector assembly for a flexible wiring plate

摘要

A connector assembly for connecting a flexible wiring plate, having circuit conductors coated with insulator films on the two sides thereof, to a box-like connector housing. The connector housing includes a housing body and a lid body detachably secured to the housing body. The housing body is provided with an opening in one of the top and bottom walls. An elastic seal member is mounted around the opening. A part of the insulator film of the flexible wiring plate is removed in accordance with the opening so that end portions of the circuit conductors are exposed from the insulator film in opposition to the opening. Electrical terminals are disposed in the housing body so that elastic contacts of the terminals engage with the exposed end portions of the circuit conductors.
