A waterproof connector includes a contact, a housing, a seal member, and a cover member. An inserted portion of the housing is inserted in an insertion hole of a wall portion of a device case. The inserted portion includes an annular surface disposed flush to or with a step provided with respect to a surface of the wall portion. The seal member includes an annular first seal portion, fitted in an annular groove formed in the annular surface, and a covering portion, extending orthogonally from the first seal portion toward the surface side of the wall portion. The covering portion spanningly covers a first gap, which is a gap between an outer peripheral surface of the inserted portion and an inner peripheral surface of the insertion hole. The cover member is fixed to the wall portion across the covering portion. A second seal portion, providing sealing between the cover member and the surface of the wall portion, is formed by a portion of the covering portion that is sandwiched by the cover member and the front surface of the wall portion.

An imaging device of the present invention includes: a first case having an opening; a substrate on which a first terminal electrically connected to an imaging element is mounted, the substrate being provided in the first case; a second case covering the opening of the first case; and a connector. A first terminal accommodation portion accommodating the first terminal is fixed to the substrate. The connector includes a second terminal accommodation portion accommodating a second terminal electrically connected to the first terminal. The second case has a through hole. The first and second terminals are configured so that, in a process in which the first terminal accommodation portion and the second terminal accommodation portion are inserted to be accommodated in the through hole, the first and second terminals come into contact with each other while sliding on each other and the first and second terminals are elastically deformable upon contact with each other.

Imaging device

An imaging device includes: a first case having an opening; a substrate where a first terminal electrically connected with an imaging element is mounted, the substrate being provided in the first case; and a second case closing the opening. The second case includes an accommodation portion accommodating a second terminal designed to be electrically connected with the first terminal. A mating portion capable of being mated with the accommodation portion is secured to the substrate. Inside the mating portion, the first terminal extends along a mating direction of the accommodation portion and the mating portion. The first and second terminals are designed to come into contact with each other while sliding along the mating direction in a mating process of the accommodation portion and the mating portion, and to be elastically deformable in a first direction orthogonal to the mating direction upon contact with each other in the mating process.

A male connector includes a housing fixed to a base, a holding unit supported in such a manner as to enable displacement with respect to the housing; and an elastically deformable male terminal held by the holding unit. The housing is able to maintain the holding unit in a stationary state with the terminal undeformed and apart from the conductive film, while the holding unit is in the temporal locking position with the housing fixed to the base. The housing is able to maintain the holding unit in a stationary state with the terminal elastically deformed and contacting the conductive film, while the holding unit is in the non-temporal locking position with the housing fixed to the base.

Connector

A press-fit terminal () made of a wire material () of a predetermined length, the press-fit terminal includes: a distal section () formed at one end thereof to be inserted into a substrate (); a connecting section () formed at the other end thereof to be connected to a complementary terminal; and a press-fit section () formed at a distal section side thereof to be press-fitted into a through-hole () of the substrate; wherein the press-fit section is formed at the central part thereof a hole () vertically elongated along an axis direction of the wire material; the hole is formed with an extending section () extendedly formed toward the inside of the hole along the inner circumferential surface () of the hole; and the extending section is formed at the end thereof with an erected section () in an intersecting direction about the axis direction of the wire material.

A front caseaccommodates a substrateon which female contactsare mounted. The female contactsare accommodated in a housing. From a rear portionof a rear case, male contactsprotrude forward. The front protrusionof each male contactis provided inside a housing. When a housingis fitted with a housing, each male contactslides on and contacts leading endsandin the direction in which the housings are fitted.

Imaging apparatus

A connector includes a housing and contacts. Each of the contacts includes a leading end, a connecting part, a held part, and a flange part. The housing has a holding part having a contact insertion hole into which the held part is inserted. The contact insertion hole includes: a first insertion hole in which a side surface of the held part of the contact is held; a second insertion hole formed in a size that holds one opposite side surface of the held part of the contact, and having a space on the other opposite side surface side, the second insertion hole being formed to be longer than the first insertion hole; and a flange holding part. The held part of the contact is made longer than the leading end of the contact. This configuration can improve alignment accuracy of the contacts without using a compensation plate.

The perpendicular fitting female terminal according to the present invention comprises a tubular body having two first walls facing in a height direction and opposing to each other and two second walls facing in a width direction and opposing to each other, and extending in a depth direction, and a connecting part being aligned with the body in the depth direction and being integrally provided with the body, and being able to be connected to a conductor including electric wire. The two second walls of this perpendicular fitting female terminal are provided respectively with receiving holes penetrating, and inside the body is provided a leaf spring that undergoes elastic deformation in the height direction, and when a plug is accepted through any receiving hole, the leaf spring is pressed by the plug to undergo elastic deformation in the height direction.
