The housing portion includes a plurality of terminal receiving passageways each receiving a contact portion of one of the plurality of terminals. A plurality of conductors exposed in a window extending through an insulation material of the flat flexible cable are each clamped in a terminating portion of one of the plurality of terminals by a clamping force applied thereon by a cover selectively fixable with respect to the housing portion.

A connector-attached circuit body include a circuit body including a flexible substrate having a wiring pattern, and a connector attached to the circuit body and including a terminal and a housing that accommodates the terminal. The terminal is electrically connected to the wiring pattern and extends in a thickness direction of the circuit body.

The invention relates to a direct plug-in connector for making electrical contact with printed circuit boards, comprising a housing and at least one contact, which is connected to the housing, for insertion into a first passage opening of a printed circuit board, which first passage opening is electrically conductive on the inner wall, wherein at least one latching device for securing the housing on the printed circuit board is provided, wherein the latching device has at least one elastically resilient latching arm which is integrally connected to the housing and has a latching projection in the region of its free end, wherein the latching arm and the housing are separated by means of an intermediate space which runs perpendicularly to a supporting face of the direct plug-in connector on the printed circuit board and in a straight line.

A memory device and an electronic device is provided. The memory device may include a memory module including a module board and a memory connector located on one side of the module board, a first enclosure placed above the memory module and a second enclosure placed below the memory module, wherein the first enclosure includes a first main cover which covers upper faces of the module board and the memory connector, at least one clamping hole which penetrates the main cover at a position overlapping the memory connector, an inter-device fastening pillar protruding downward from a lower face of the first main cover, and a coupling hole which is located inside the inter-device fastening pillar on a plane and penetrates the inter-device fastening pillar and the main cover.

A card edge connector is adapted to allow an electronic module to insert and comprises an elongated insulating housing and a plurality of conductive terminals. The insulating housing has two side walls which are spaced apart from each other, the two side walls together define a card edge insertion groove which has an opening. The card edge connector further comprises a covering member which is correspondingly mounted to the terminal mounting wall, the covering member has a body and a tongue portion which is connected to the body and has flexibility, the body is mounted to the top surface of the terminal mounting wall, the tongue portion at least partially covers the opening of the card edge insertion groove, when the electronic module is inserted into the card edge insertion groove, the tongue portion contacts the electronic module and flexes toward the card edge insertion groove.

A connector includes a housing, and a holding member attached to the housing. The holding member holds a stack of a first conductive member and a first reinforcing plate. The first reinforcing plate is disposed on a second face of the first conductive member, the second face being opposite to a first face on which a plurality of conductors is arranged adjacent to each other in a width direction and planarly exposed at a first end side in a length direction. The holding member is laid in a band shape in the width direction on the stack at an intermediate position between the first end side and a second end side in the length direction. The stack further includes a second reinforcing plate and a second conductive member. The second reinforcing plate is disposed on a second face of the first reinforcing plate, the second face being opposite to a first face on which the first conductive member is disposed. The second conductive member is disposed on a second face of the second reinforcing plate, the second face being opposite to a first face on which the first reinforcing plate is disposed. The second reinforcing plate is disposed on a second face of the second conductive member, the second face being opposite to a first face on which a plurality of conductors is arranged adjacent to each other in the width direction and planarly exposed at the first end side in the length direction.

An electrical connector for connecting a circuit card to a substrate. The connector includes a housing and forklocks. The housing is in an elongated shape and includes a slot for accepting an edge of the circuit card. The forklocks are extended from a bottom surface of the housing on each end of the housing. The forklocks are inserted into through holes formed in the substrate to secure the housing to the substrate. The forklocks are rotated by a predetermined degree of angle (e.g. 45 degrees) about a longitudinal direction of the housing. The circuit card may be a memory module, such as a dual in-line memory module, and the substrate may be a printed circuit board. The circuit card may be a daughter board and the substrate may be a mother board.

A communication system includes a plug connector mated with a receptacle connector. The receptacle connector includes a housing holding a contact assembly. The housing includes a front housing that receives an inner housing, which receives contact holders and receptacle contacts of the contact assembly. The receptacle connector housing includes a height profile defined between top and bottom walls with a housing latch and guide pockets contained within the height profile. The plug connector includes a housing holding a cable assembly with a circuit card received in a card slot of the receptacle housing. The plug connector housing includes alignment embossments received in the guide pockets and latches coupled to the alignment embossments are latchably coupled to the receptacle connector. The latches are contained within a height profile of the plug connector housing.

A card edge connector with a locking system, which may include a locking member integrally formed with a connector housing. The locking member may deflect upon insertion of an edge of a board into the connector and spring back to engage an opening in the board. The locking member and the opening in the board may have perimeters that are rounded, allowing relative rotation about an axis through the opening even though the board is locked within the connector. Such a configuration may provide a simple and secure locking system. Such a configuration may support connecting two parallel boards, each with a card edge connector, through a riser board with opposite ends inserted into the two connectors. Relative rotation of the board with respect to the connectors enables skew, in a direction parallel to the surfaces of the parallel boards, while securing each of those boards to the riser board.

A connector housing includes a body defining an accommodating channel sized to receive a pin terminal, and a blocking structure formed in the accommodating channel and positioned to prevent a bent portion of a pin terminal from rebounding.
