A terminal relay member includes a plurality of relay terminals, each of which has a body section in which an opening is formed so as to penetrate the body section, and a terminal section to be connected to the circuit board; and a covering section for covering the body sections. The covering section includes holes corresponding to the openings. The opening is configured so that, by inserting a terminal pin of a connector to the opening, a part of the body section around the opening is deformed toward an inner wall of the hole of the covering section to contact the terminal pin.

Relay terminal member, circuit structure including the same, and electronic unit

A method for manufacturing an electronic component embedded connector includes a first step for fixing a terminal to a fixing means; a second step for fixing electronic components to the fixing means; a third step for cutting connecting sections of the terminal fixed to the fixing means; a fourth step for connecting the electronic components fixed to the fixing means, to the terminal in which the connecting sections are cut off; and a fifth step for covering a section of the terminal other than terminal sections, and the electronic components by an insulating cover.

Electronic component embedded connector, and method and device for manufacturing the same

A pivoting lever has tongue-like movable pieces formed in a squared U-shape on both side faces of a cover member, and locking claws at intermediate parts of the movable piece. A pivoting lever is pivotally supported on a support pin of the cover member. Circular arc-shaped cam grooves are formed in a lever body part, and locking holes engaging locking claws are formed in the lever body part. When a mating housing is pressed into a housing and the lever is pivoted, the cam grooves drive a driven pin and pull the mating housing toward the housing. The lever contacts the locking claws, and pivots the locking claws while pushing them down. When the housings are joined, the locking claws returned to the original positions fitted into the locking holes, setting the lever to a locked state, thereby disabling further rotation and reverse rotation of the lever.

Lever type connector

An electric connector capable of fixing a small connection terminal by a large locking force. Two housings having a plurality of connection terminals are placed vertically symmetrically with their open surfaces facing each other, and a holder having a lock is interposed between the open surfaces of the housings. An assembly of the housings and the holder is accommodated in an outer cover, and a bottom cover is fixed to the bottom of the outer cover. The connection terminals are rigidly prevented from moving backward and vertically by the housings and the holder, and from moving forward by a front wall of the outer cover.

Electrical connector having large locking force

A connection member of simple structure having a high reliability and capable of performing electric cable branching is provided. Connection portions of a plurality of electric cable terminals having an electric cable are respectively inserted into an electric cable terminal insertion hole of a holding body. Cylindrical contact points of the connection portions are aligned in a pin terminal insertion hole and a pin terminal is inserted into the pin terminal insertion hole. The pin terminal is successively inserted into the cylindrical contact points of the electric cable terminals arranged in parallel in the pin terminal insertion hole so that the pin terminal is electrically connected to the plurality of connection portions and the connection portions are short-circuited with one another.

Provided is a connecting member by which an electric wire can be branched easily with high reliability. Receptacle connecting ends () of a plurality of wire terminals () having wires () are inserted into a wire terminal inserting hole () of a holder (), then, a pin terminal () is inserted into a pin terminal inserting hole () of the pin terminal (). The pin terminal () is inserted through a tubular contact () of the receptacle connecting ends () arranged in the pin terminal inserting hole (), and electricity is carried between the wire terminals () through the pin terminals ().

Electric connector housing

A connecting terminalhas a rectangular tube-like connecting portionformed at a front side for receiving a cooperating tang-like connecting terminal and a U-shaped core conductor clamping portionand a U-shaped sheath clamping portionat a rear side. In front of the core conductor clamping portionnear the connecting portionthere are formed plate-like locking stripsto extend in a longitudinal direction in an upright fashion. A top portion' of the core conductor clamping portionis coupled substantially linearly with top portions&#x2032; of the locking stripsby means of coupling portionsto reinforce a root portion of the core conductor clamping portion

Connection terminal

In an electrical connector assembly, housings are locked with each other by locking a rear holder provided in a first connector with a cooperating second connector. In a rear holder main bodyof a rear holderthere are formed a plurality of resilient clamping lanceswhich clamp connection terminalsinserted into respective terminal receiving holesformed in a housing main body. At a middle upper portion of the rear holderthere is provided a resilient locking arm, and a locking clawis formed on the locking arm. When the housing main bodyis inserted into a housing main bodyof a cooperating connector, connection terminalsandare coupled with each other. The locking clawprovided on the locking armof the rear holderis engaged with a locking portionof the housing main bodyof the cooperating second connector.

A front endof a locking armprovided on a rear holderis inserted into a hole portionformed in a main housing, and the locking armis supported like as a bridge. The main housingis inserted into a hood portionof a cooperating housingand connecting terminals are connected to each other to establish the electrical connection. A locking clawformed on the locking armis once resiliently moved downward to pass through a locking clawof the cooperating housingand is then restored into an original posture to engage the locking clawwith the locking claw. Once the main housingis engaged with the cooperating housing, these housings could not be released accidentally.
