Abstract

PURPOSE:To prevent a damage such as a buckling of a male contact owing to the interference with a female housing, by improving the fitting of a male connector and a female connector of a connector for a printed circuit board. CONSTITUTION:A connector is provided with male contacts 3 pressure-welded by a press fitting or soldered to a board 7, a male housing 5 to house the male contacts 3, and a terminal lineup plate 10 having holes 9 almost as large as or a little larger than the male contacts 3. The terminal lineup plate 10 is composed of coil springs 8 to be positioned and held at the front end of the male contacts 3. By moving the terminal lineup plate 10 up and down when a female connector is inserted or removed, the male contacts 3 are slid in the holes 9, and positioning accuracy of the tips of the male contacts 3 can be improved.

2. Description of the Related Art A conventional two-part connector for a printed circuit board comprises a female connector 2 shown in FIG. 5A and a male connector 1 shown in FIG. 5B, as shown in the sectional view of FIG. 1 is composed of a male contactor 3 and an insulative male housing 5, and is generally press-fitted and fixed to a board 7 such as a printed board or soldered and fixed to the printed board. Particularly in recent years, a male contactor is often provided with a press-fit structure that can be electrically connected only by being press-fitted into a printed board without soldering. However, at the time of press-fitting, the position of the tip of the male contactor may deviate significantly from the set position due to the positional accuracy of the male contactor and the through hole of the printed board.

Here, in an ordinary connector without the terminal alignment plate 10, the male contactor 3 generally has poor positional accuracy, and the positional accuracy becomes poorer toward the tip. However, it is fatal for the connector that the position accuracy of the tip portion that defines the fitting characteristics is bad, and in the recent high-density multi-terminal connector such as a half-pitch connector, the position of the tip portion of the male contact 3 is located. Accuracy improvement is important. In this embodiment, this terminal alignment plate 1
By sliding 0, the tip of the male contactor 3 is corrected, and a connector with extremely high positional accuracy can be obtained.
