A connector () includes a set of type 1 contacts (A) disposed in a type 1 holding area, the type 1 contacts (A) being disposed facing each other, and a type 2 contact (B) disposed in each of two type 2 holding areas sandwiching the type 1 holding area. When viewed from above, at least a portion of the type 2 contact (B) is disposed in a range obtained by extending, in a first direction in which the type 1 holding area and the two type 2 holding areas are arranged, a region in which the set of type 1 contacts (A) oppose each other in a second direction orthogonal to the first direction. Additionally, the type 2 contact (B) includes a connecting portion that is connected to the circuit of the circuit board, and a contacting portion that is disposed at a position separated, from the connecting portion in a normal direction of an installation surface to the circuit board, and that contacts a terminal of a mating connector.

Connector and connection unit for use in an electrical device

A connector device comprising a first connector and a second connector. The first connector comprises: a plurality of conductive first contacts; an insulating first contact holding portion holding the plurality of first contacts; a conductive partition wall partitioning the first contact holding portion into a first grouping area that holds two or more first contacts and a first individual area that holds one first contact; and a conductive first surrounding wall disposed around an outer periphery of the first individual area so that the first surrounding wall and the partition wall at least partially surround the first individual area. The second connector comprises: a plurality of conductive second contacts; and a conductive second surrounding wall. When the first connector and the second connector are fitted to each other, the second surrounding wall is disposed inside or outside the first surrounding wall around the outer periphery of the first individual area.
