At this time, the connecting portion 45 is located on the left and right sides of the insertion port 4. Further, the lower reinforcing member 44 protects and reinforces the bottom side of the casing 10.
在本實施形態之金屬補強構件40一體形成有接地接觸件50。換言之,本實施形態之接地接觸件50形成金屬補強構件40之局部。但是,本發明並不侷限於此,金屬補強構件40與接地接觸件50也可以設為分別個體。The ground contact member 50 is integrally formed in the metal reinforcing member 40 of the present embodiment. In other words, the ground contact 50 of the present embodiment forms part of the metal reinforcing member 40. However, the present invention is not limited thereto, and the metal reinforcing member 40 and the ground contact 50 may be individually provided.
如第3圖及第5圖所示,接地接觸件50係自連接器1前端2往***部5內延伸。詳細說來,接地接觸件50具有接點支撐部51及第2接點部52。接點支撐部51在與金屬補強構件40前側補強構件43之下緣後方(+X方向)及下方(-Z方向)兩者斜交方向上延伸。第2接點部52被接點支撐部51彈性支撐。第2接點部52係位於自***口4進入之深側,與FPC/FFC 80接地層84電性連接之部位。而且第2接點部52係與***部5下部承受面13一齊夾持被******部5之FPC/FFC 80之部位。As shown in FIGS. 3 and 5, the ground contact 50 extends from the front end 2 of the connector 1 into the insertion portion 5. In detail, the ground contact 50 has a contact support portion 51 and a second contact portion 52. The contact support portion 51 extends in a direction oblique to both the rear (+X direction) and the lower (-Z direction) of the lower edge of the front reinforcing member 43 of the metal reinforcing member 40. The second contact portion 52 is elastically supported by the contact supporting portion 51. The second contact portion 52 is located at a portion deep from the entrance of the insertion port 4 and electrically connected to the FPC/FFC 80 ground layer 84. Further, the second contact portion 52 is sandwiched between the lower receiving surface 13 of the insertion portion 5 and the portion of the FPC/FFC 80 inserted into the insertion portion 5.
由第3圖、第5圖及第7圖可以理解:接地接觸件50係相對安裝於套殼10,被收容部34g較寬之下側收容部34b局部收容。第2接點部52係在收容部34g內,相對接觸被******部5之FPC/FFC 80的接地層84之物件。具體說來,第2接點部52位於上顎部23之下側(-Z方向)。亦即,第2接點部52被配置於舉起部36附近。因此,當以***部5下部承受面13與第2接點部52夾持被******部5之FPC/FFC 80時,極端之剪斷應力不會施加在FPC/FFC 80上。又,本實施形態之第2接點部52係與接觸件20第1接點部21在X方向(前後方向)中,被配置於概略相同位置。因此,不會藉來自接地接觸件50之反作用力而致動器30打開。而且,接地層84與第2接點部52之滑動量(接觸同時之相對移動)很少,所以,接地層84之切削很少,而且可盡量減少上述剪斷應力。It can be understood from FIGS. 3, 5, and 7 that the ground contact member 50 is relatively mounted to the casing 10, and is partially housed by the lower side receiving portion 34b of the accommodating portion 34g. The second contact portion 52 is in the accommodating portion 34g and is in contact with the object inserted into the ground layer 84 of the FPC/FFC 80 of the insertion portion 5. Specifically, the second contact portion 52 is located on the lower side (-Z direction) of the upper jaw portion 23. In other words, the second contact portion 52 is disposed in the vicinity of the lift portion 36. Therefore, when the FPC/FFC 80 inserted into the insertion portion 5 is sandwiched by the lower receiving surface 13 of the insertion portion 5 and the second contact portion 52, the extreme shear stress is not applied to the FPC/FFC 80. Further, the second contact portion 52 of the present embodiment is disposed at substantially the same position in the X direction (front-rear direction) as the first contact portion 21 of the contact 20 . Therefore, the actuator 30 is not opened by the reaction force from the ground contact 50. Further, since the amount of sliding of the ground layer 84 and the second contact portion 52 (relative movement at the same time of contact) is small, the grounding layer 84 has little cutting and the shear stress can be minimized.
在本實施形態中,即使致動器30自打開位置往關閉位置旋轉操作,接地接觸件50之第2接點部52也不會位移。換言之,本實施形態之接地接觸件50不會被進行上述旋轉操作之致動器30按壓。如此一來,在本實施形態中,對應致動器30旋轉之接觸件20第1接點部21之位移與接地接觸件50第2接點部52之位移係相互獨立。藉此,在致動器30旋轉時,接地層84不會被第2接點部52損傷。In the present embodiment, even if the actuator 30 is rotated from the open position to the closed position, the second contact portion 52 of the ground contact 50 is not displaced. In other words, the ground contact 50 of the present embodiment is not pressed by the actuator 30 that performs the above-described rotation operation. As described above, in the present embodiment, the displacement of the first contact portion 21 of the contact 20 corresponding to the rotation of the actuator 30 is independent of the displacement of the second contact portion 52 of the ground contact 50. Thereby, the ground layer 84 is not damaged by the second contact portion 52 when the actuator 30 rotates.
在本實施形態之連接器1中,當未***FPC/FFC 80,而且致動器30在打開位置時,套殼10下部承受面13與接地接觸件50第2接點部52間之Z方向(上下方向)中之距離,比FPC/FFC 80之厚度還要窄。因此,在致動器30於打開位置之狀態中,當***FPC/FFC 80到***部5時,能使FPC/FFC 80暫時保持在連接器1。In the connector 1 of the present embodiment, when the FPC/FFC 80 is not inserted and the actuator 30 is in the open position, the Z direction between the lower receiving surface 13 of the casing 10 and the second contact portion 52 of the ground contact 50 is The distance in the (up and down direction) is narrower than the thickness of the FPC/FFC 80. Therefore, in the state where the actuator 30 is in the open position, when the FPC/FFC 80 is inserted into the insertion portion 5, the FPC/FFC 80 can be temporarily held at the connector 1.
雖然說明過本發明之最佳實施形態,但是,該行業之業者可知,在不脫逸本發明精神之範圍中,可有實施形態之變形,這種實施形態也屬於本發明之範圍。While the preferred embodiment of the present invention has been described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that the invention may be practiced without departing from the scope of the invention.
