Abstract
While efficient assembly performance of an electrical connector is obtained, good operability can be also obtained by a simple configuration. Good shielding performance with respect to transmission paths are configured to be obtained by a simple configuration in which movement of an actuator causes both shield shells to contact each other by covering at least part of outer surfaces of an insulating housing and the actuator by the shield shells consisting of electrically-conductive metal members, causing the actuator-side shield shell moved to an action position to contact the insulating-housing-side shield shell, and continuously covering the transmission paths, which are from a signal transmission medium to a printed wiring board through electrically-conductive contact members.
Claims8
An electrical connector having
- an insulating housing having an interior in which an electrically-conductive contact member is disposed and
- an actuator reciprocably attached to the insulating housing,
- the electrical connector configured so as to form a transmission path from a signal transmission medium to a printed wiring board through the electrically-conductive contact member by moving the actuator from an initial position to an action position and electrically connecting the signal transmission medium inserted in the insulating housing with the electrically-conductive contact member;
- the electrical connector comprising
- shield shells consisting of electrically-conductive metal members respectively attached to the insulating housing and the actuator so as to cover at least part of outer surfaces of the insulating housing and the actuator;
- having a disposition relation that,
- when the actuator is moved to the action position, the actuator-side shield shell and the insulating-housing-side shield shell contact each other so as to continuously cover the transmission path from the signal transmission medium to the printed wiring board through the electrically-conductive contact member.
