Three-dimensional connector for a coordinate input device

Abstract

A three-dimensional connector for a coordinate input device, which provides a touch pad and a support plate under said touch pad, includes a flat conductor cable. The flat conductor cable has an end connecting with the touch pad and another end providing a plurality of conductive lines. Each of the conductive lines corresponds to and is perpendicularly penetrated with a connecting pin; said connecting pin has a head section to press-fit with said flat conductor cable, extends through a slot, which is provided at the support plate next to said touch pad, to act as a contact such that said flat conductor cable is capable of transmitting electronic signal along a direction perpendicular to said flat conductor cable. Hence, the flat conductor cable can be connected firmly without loosening so as to enhance compactness of the three-dimensional connector substantially.
