A connector includes a plurality of contacts. Each of the contacts includes a first engagement portion, a second engagement portion, a first bent portion, a second bent portion, and a coupling portion. A second angle formed by a reference straight line and a second straight line is smaller than a first angle formed by the reference straight line and a first straight line, where the first straight line is a straight line passing through an end of the first bent portion on the first engagement portion side and an end of the first bent portion on the coupling portion side, and the second straight line is a straight line passing through an end of the second bent portion on the coupling portion side and an end of the second bent portion on the second engagement portion side.

Connector and manufacturing method of connector

A connector () according to the present disclosure is fitted with a connection object (). The connector includes a pair of first insulators (), a second insulator () arranged between the pair of first insulators () and is movable relative to the pair of first insulators (), and contacts () mounted to the pair of first insulators () and the second insulator () and arranged in rows, wherein the pair of first insulators () are arranged apart from each other in a direction substantially orthogonal to an arrangement direction of the contacts ().

Floating connector and electronic device

A connector () according to the present disclosure is fitted with a connection object (). The connector includes a first insulator (), a second insulator () movable relative to the first insulator (), and one or more contacts () mounted to the first insulator () and the second insulator (), wherein the second insulator () has a receiving portion () that is superimposed on the first insulator () from a fitting side in a fitting direction between the connector () and the connection object ().

Connector and electronic device

Provided is an electric connector capable of preventing damage to a housing and deformation of a bracket even if it is miniaturized. An electric connector () according to the present disclosure includes: a first connector () having a first housing () with a recess () formed in a first surface and a first bracket () held by the first housing () while facing the first surface; and a second connector () fitted with the first connector (), the second connector having a second housing () with a projection () fitted into the recess (), the projection being formed on a second surface corresponding to the first surface, and a second bracket () held by the second housing () while facing the second surface and electrically connected to the first bracket (). After the first housing () and the second housing () are fitted together, the projection () is disposed such that a side face along a direction perpendicular to the first surface faces the first bracket () or the second bracket (), and the first housing () has a protrusion formed continuous with the first surface and located closer to the fitting side than the first bracket ().

Electric connector

A floating connector device allows movement of a movable-side housing in board-parallel and pushing directions, allows floating in a pushing/removal direction when mated with a mating connector, and has high contact reliability. A fixed housing () includes a long through-hole and a pair of board-facing plates. A movable housing () includes an outer portion projecting from the long through-hole and a retaining projection overlapping the board-facing plates in plan view. A contact group includes a tail for board mounting, a fixing portion supported by the fixed housing (), a U-shaped portion supported by a contact support groove in the outer portion, and an elastic deformation portion, in a free state unsupported by either groove, that by its own elasticity allows the movable housing () to sink in a board direction, and in a sunken state, allows elastic movement in a longitudinal direction, a direction orthogonal thereto, and a tilting direction.
