A sensor connector compatible with various sensor unit repertoires and capable of improving production efficiency is provided. The sensor connector includes terminal modules to be inserted into a module inserted portion, and commonized pogo pin type terminal module is brought into contact with a connection terminal via slide contact segments capable of sliding relative to the connection terminal exposed to a region closer to the module inserted portion. Thus, the sensor connector can be compatible with the sensor unithaving various repertoires by changing, for example, the arrangement and the number of poles of the module inserted portions of the connector housing.

An electronic part attachment socket includes a socket housing including an electronic part housing section with an open top into which all or part of an electronic part is housed; and contacts are supported by a socket housing and form an elastic contact with the terminal sections of the electronic part. The electronic part is connected to a printed circuit substrate by way of the contacts. A shield case is formed in a box shape that fits to the outer perimeter of the socket housing, and is formed integrally with a pushing section that projects inward. The shield case is fitted to the socket housing so that it is prevented from slipping off so that the pushing section pushes the electronic part toward the contacts, resulting in the electronic part being housed in the electronic part housing section.

Socket for attaching an electronic component

An electronic parts installing socket capable of downsizing an electronic device by reducing the height of socket projecting from one surface of the printed circuit board comprises a socket housing fitted into a socket inserting hole. The socket inserting hole penetrates from a front surface to a rear surface of a printed circuit board. Also, a plurality of contacts each having contact pieces disposal on the socket housing and project from a side surface of the socket housing. The contact pieces are connected a contact connecting pattern which is positioned at an opening edge portion of socket inserting hole. Front surface shielding members and are connected to the printed circuit board to shield a portion projecting to the front surface of the printed circuit board. A box shaped rear surface shielding member covers a portion projecting from a rear surface of the printed circuit board to the socket housing and is connected to the front surface shielding members.

Socket for installing electronic parts

An electronic part-mounting socket includes a socket housing, and contacts The socket housing has contact receiving grooves formed at a bottom plate portion of an electronic part-receiving portion. The contact of an integral construction includes a fixing piece portion, a terminal piece portion laterally bent at a lower end of the fixing piece portion, a first bent-back portion formed by bending back a distal end portion of the terminal piece portion into a U-shape, an intermediate spring piece portion extending laterally from the first bent-back portion, a second bent-back portion formed by bending back a distal end portion of the intermediate spring piece portion into a U-shape, and a resilient contact piece portion extending continuously from the second bent-back portion in an upwardly-slanting manner. The fixing piece portions are inserted respectively in contact fixing holes, formed in the socket housing in an upward-downward direction, and are fixed thereto.
