Abstract
A filter connector device formed by combination of a male connector and a female connector. When the male connector and the female connector are engaged with each other, male connector pins and female connector pins are connected with each other. A filter circuit is formed by a plurality of elements including at least one capacitor and at least one inductor in cooperation with each pair of male and female connector pins thus connected in series with each other, and the plurality of elements forming such a filter circuit are dividedly provided in the male connector and the female connector.
Claims13
A filter connector device comprising in combination:
- a male connector and a female connector detachably engaged with each other, said male connector and said female connector having a plurality of male connector pins and a corresponding plurality of female connector pins, respectively which are disposed therein to be connected in series with each other upon engagement of said male connector and said female connector;
- a plurality of filter elements including at least one capacitor and at least one inductor, at least one of said filter elements being provided in said male connector and at least one in said female connector, each filter element being associated with the connector pins in its respective connector, said filter elements forming a filter circuit in cooperation with said corresponding male and female connector pins connected in series with each other upon engagement of said male connector and said female connector;
- wherein each said inductor is in the form of a plate having a plurality of holes for receiving said plurality of connector pins in its respective connector, said inductor being associated with all of said plurality of connector pins in its respective connector;
- and
- wherein said inductor is provided with slits for preventing interference between adjacent ones of said plurality of connector pins in its respective said connector.
