US 2003/0216072 A1 · Structure of connecting shielded connectors

Abstract

When one shielded connector is engaged with the other shielded connector, a conductive connector housing of the one connector is electrically connected to a conductive connector housing of the other connector to establish shield connection. Either one of the connectors has a conductive rotating lever, while the other connector has an engaging portion for engaging with the rotating lever to connect the shielded connectors by rotation of the rotating lever. A conductive resilient abutting member, which abuts on the rotating lever and/or the other connector housing to be resiliently deformed when the connectors are connected with each other by rotation of the rotating lever, is provided on the rotating lever and/or the other connector housing.

Dependent claims

A structure of connecting shielded connectors comprising:

a pair of connectors;
conductive connector housings of the respective connectors;
a rotatable conductive lever mounted on either one of the conductive connector housings;
an engaging part of the other conductive connector housing for engaging with the rotatable conductive lever to connect the pair of connectors with each other;
and
a resilient conductive abutting member mounted on the rotatable conductive lever and/or the other conductive connector housing for abutting on the other conductive connector housing and/or the rotatable conductive lever as being resiliently deformed, whereby
said pair of connectors establishes shield connection when being connected with each other.
