Abstract
Each contact is designed in such a way that one contact part is supported by two spring pieces extending apart from each other in a pitch direction and parallel to each other and whose both ends are joined. The two spring pieces of each contact are extended toward each other so that the two spring pieces of each contact come closer to each other in the pitch direction while maintaining a predetermined pitch and an outer spring gap, thereby increasing the contact pressure of each contact while maintaining the predetermined pitch and the impedance of each contact.
Claims7
A contact pressure adjustment method for adjusting a contact pressure of each contact in a connector where a plurality of contacts having electrical conductivity are arranged in a row with a predetermined pitch, wherein
- each contact is designed in such a way that one contact part is supported by two spring pieces extending apart from each other in a pitch direction and parallel to each other and whose both ends are joined,
- no conductor is designed to exist between the two spring pieces of each contact,
- no conductor is designed to exist between two contacts adjacent in the pitch direction, and
- while maintaining the predetermined pitch and a gap in the pitch direction between, of two contacts adjacent in the pitch direction, a spring piece closer to another contact out of the two spring pieces of one contact and a spring piece closer to the one contact out of the two spring pieces of the another contact, the two spring pieces of each contact are extended toward each other so that the two spring pieces of each contact come closer to each other in the pitch direction, thereby increasing the contact pressure of each contact while maintaining the predetermined pitch and impedance of each contact.
A connector for high-speed transmission where a plurality of contacts having electrical conductivity are arranged in a row with a predetermined pitch, wherein
- in each contact, one contact part is supported by two spring pieces extending apart from each other in a pitch direction and parallel to each other and whose both ends are joined,
- no conductor exists between the two spring pieces of each contact,
- no conductor exists between two contacts adjacent in the pitch direction, and
- a gap in the pitch direction between the two spring pieces of each contact is equal to or smaller than a gap in the pitch direction between, of two contacts adjacent in the pitch direction, a spring piece closer to another contact out of the two spring pieces of one contact and a spring piece closer to the one contact out of the two spring pieces of the another contact.
