A connection structure for a printed wiring board which enables high density integration is provided. A FCPincludes an exposed conductor partA including an insulating substrateand a reinforcing platestacked with this substratevia an elastic member. In the exposed conductor partA, conductorseach having a protrusionformed on a surface is placed on the insulating substrate. The exposed conductor partA can be elastically deformed in the thickness direction in which the substrate, the reinforcing plateand the like are stacked. A printed wiring boardis constructed by stacking an inner layer boardand a first outer layer boardand a second outer layer boardwhich sandwich this inner layer board. A notched grooveA is formed on the inner layer board, and an insertion openingB is formed. Through-hole portswhich appear on the notched grooveA side is placed on the first outer layer board. When the FPCis inserted into the insertion openingB, the protrusionof the FPCfits with the through-hole portA from within insertion openingB and presses thereto.

Connection structure for printed wiring board

Connector

A connector of a simple structure adapted to absorb a positional deviation which occurs when a plug and a receptacle are fitted into each other, without spoiling the strength of the connector is provided. The connector has a plug, and a receptacle into which the plug is fitted. A receptacle housing holding receptacle contacts and formed out of an insulating material is provided with projecting portions extending in the direction crossing the fitting direction. A plug housing holding plug contacts is provided with wall portions having recesses which extend in the fitting direction, and which are capable of having the projecting portions provided on the receptacle housing engaged therewith. The width of the projecting portions is smaller than that of the recesses, and the receptacle engaged with the plug housing swings in the direction crossing the fitting direction to absorb a deviation of the position of the connector.
