Definitions
- the present invention relates to an electrical connector configured to retain a signal transmission medium by elastic engagement force of a lock member by inserting a terminal part of the signal transmission medium to a predetermined position in an insulating housing.
- various electrical connectors are widely used as means for electrically connecting various signal transmission media such as flexible printed circuits (FPC) and flexible flat cables (FFC).
- FPC flexible printed circuits
- FFC flexible flat cables
- a signal transmission medium composed of, for example, FPC or FFC is inserted from a front-end-side opening of an insulating housing (insulator) into the interior thereof, and an actuator (connection operating means) is then turned by operating force of an operator so as to be pushed down toward a connection working position in the front side or the rear side of the connector.
- an actuator connection operating means
- part of a lock member is put into an engaging part provided at a terminal part of the signal transmission medium to achieve an engaged state, and the terminal part of the signal transmission medium is configured to be retained in an approximately immobile state by the lock member.
- an electrical connector having an actuator is configured to operate engagement/detachment of a lock member by carrying out operation to turn the actuator between a disconnecting position and a connection working position, wherein work efficiency is sometimes a problem since the actuator has to be operated separately from the operation to insert the signal transmission medium (for example, FPC, FFC). Therefore, for example, like below-described Patent Literature 2 and 3, an electrical connector provided with a so-called one-action automatic locking mechanism configured so that part of a lock member is elastically displaced so as to be placed over a signal transmission medium inserted into an insulating housing and that the part of the lock member is then put into an engaging part of the signal transmission medium to carry out engagement has been conventionally developed.
- a signal transmission medium is retained in an approximately immobile state only by inserting the signal transmission medium to a predetermined position in the electrical connector, and work efficiency is improved.
- the one-action automatic locking mechanism employed in conventional electrical connectors has an advantage that locking is carried out only by inserting a signal transmission medium (for example, FPC, FFC) into the electrical connector as described above; however, the configuration of a lock cancellation operating part for cancelling an engaged state of a latch lock part tends to be complex, the cancelling operation takes labor, and a problem may be caused in usage durability.
- a signal transmission medium for example, FPC, FFC
- JP2011204509 discloses a connector according to the preamble of claim 1.
- an electrical connector is configured to be mounted on a wiring board, the wiring board solder-joined with a board connecting part, the electrical connector having a latch lock part engaged with a terminal part of a signal transmission medium inserted in an insulating housing to retain the signal transmission medium in an approximately immobile state, the electrical connector configured so that the engaged state of the latch lock part can be cancelled by operating a lock cancellation operating part; the electrical connector having a lock arm member integrally extending like a cantilever from the board connecting part and disposed so as to be elastically displaceable; and the latch lock part and the lock cancellation operating part are elastically displaceably provided integrally at an intermediate position and a free-end position in an extending direction of the lock arm member.
- the board connecting part, the latch lock part, and the lock cancellation operating part are integrally provided with the lock arm member. Therefore, the retaining action and the cancelling action of the inserted signal transmission medium are carried out by operation of a single member, the structure and operation of the cancellation operating part are simplified, and usage durability is also improved.
- the lock arm member is desired to be bent-formed so as to be folded back between the board connecting part and the latch lock part.
- electrically-conductive contact for signal transmission in contact with the terminal part of the signal transmission medium be attached to the insulating housing; and a board connecting part provided in the electrically-conductive contact and the board connecting part provided in the lock arm member be disposed in mutually-opposed both edge parts of the insulating housing.
- the entire electrical connector is fixed in a state that is balanced from both sides, and firm retainability can be obtained with respect to external force caused by, for example, insertion of the signal transmission medium.
- the lock cancellation operating part be disposed at each of longitudinal-direction both-end parts of the insulating housing; and cut-away parts for exposing the lock cancellation operating parts to outside be provided at the longitudinal-direction both-end parts of the insulating housing.
- the lock cancellation operating part which is exposed to outside from the cut-away part of the insulating housing when insertion of the signal transmission medium is carried out well, is maintained in the state in which the operating part is buried inside of the insulating housing. Therefore, whether the insertion operation of the signal transmission medium is good or not can be easily determined.
- the latch lock part and the lock cancellation operating part are integrally provided to the elastically-displaceable lock arm member integrally extending like a cantilever from the board connecting part solder-joined with the wiring board.
- the board connecting part, the latch lock part, and the lock cancellation operating part are integrally provided to the lock arm member so that the retaining action and cancelling action of the inserted signal transmission medium are carried out by operation of a single member. Therefore, operability and usage durability of the lock cancellation operating part can be improved with a simple configuration, and reliability of the electrical connector can be significantly improved at low cost.

- An irregular-shaped anti-slipping part is formed on the upper surface of the lock operation cover part 11d as described above.
- the lock operation cover part 11d is pushed downward, for example, by a finger tip of an operator, the lock cancellation operating part 22e of the above described lock member 22 is similarly pushed downward, and, as a result, the lock arm member 22g and the latch lock part 22a continued to the lock cancellation operating part 22e are pushed downward.
