In a first contact of a connector, an insulation-displacement connection portion has two insulation-displacement blades and has a narrow slit and a wide slit. The insulation-displacement blades are different from each other in position in a first direction and correspond to the narrow slit. The insulation-displacement blades are obliquely intersected with the first direction. The narrow slit and the wide slit extend in the front-rear direction. In the first direction, the insulation-displacement blade is located between the narrow slit 362 and the wide slit 364. In a second direction, a middle of the wide slit 364 is different from a middle of the narrow slit 362 in position. When covered wire is pushed into the narrow slit, it is pressed on the insulation-displacement blades at different timings in order.

Provided is a sensor which makes it easy to mount a cable to a circuit board. This sensor 1 is provided with: a circuit board 2; a connector 10 which is composed of a metal material and which is fixed to the circuit board 2; and a cable 3 which is connected to the circuit board 2 via the connector 10. The connector 10 has: a bottom part 11 that is connected to the circuit board 2; and a pair of pinching elements 12L, 12R that are raised upright from said bottom part 11. The cable 3 is held in a space S between the pair of pinching elements 12L, 12R.

The disclosure provides an insulation piercing connector, where two clamp bodies are arranged opposite to each other, a first clamp body comprises a conductive piercing structure, two piercing portions of the piercing structure are covered by an elastic sealing portion, and two cables are clamped between the two clamp bodies; the two clamp bodies are respectively mounted on a fastener so as to be configured such that after the fastener is fastened, the two clamp bodies have a clamping force to clamp the cables, so that the piercing portions pass through elastic sealing portions and insulation layers of the cables and then are conductively connected with conductors of the cables; and due to arrangement of the elastic sealing portions, gaps between the elastic sealing portions and the insulation layers of the cables are filled and sealed, so that ingress protection rating can reach IP-68 after mounting of the branch clamp.

A contact includes a base portion, a cold-weld portion extending upward from the base portion and having a cold-weld slot into which an electric wire is configured to be cold-welded, a trailing portion extending downward by being folded back downward from an upper end of the cold-weld portion, and a contact portion extending from a lower end of the trailing portion. The trailing portion has a press-fitted portion below the cold-weld slot that is press-fitted into the housing. The contact portion makes contact with a mating contact by receiving the mating contact in a space between the contact portion and the base portion.

The invention relates to a contact for a direct plug-in connector having two strips made of sheet-metal material that are arranged next to one another in an insertion portion and in a contact portion, wherein the insertion portion is provided for insertion into a through-opening, which is electrically conductive at its inner wall, in a printed circuit board and the contact portion is provided to make electrical contact with the inner wall of the through-opening, wherein the two strips are connected together in a connection portion that is provided for connecting to a cable strand, and wherein a connecting portion is located between the connection portion and the contact portion, wherein the two strips are located in a common plane and formed in an L-shaped manner in the connecting portion, wherein the legs of the connecting portion that proceed from the connection portion extend parallel to one another and the legs of the connecting portion that are connected to the contact portion extend towards one another.

An electrical connector for connecting a pair of leads to a double-sided printed circuit board includes a housing having a receiving slot receiving the double-sided printed circuit board and a lead insertion chamber, and a pair of contact springs disposed on opposite sides of the receiving slot and electrically insulated from each other. The contact springs extend into the lead insertion chamber. Each contact spring has a lead contact for connection to a different lead of the pair of leads.
