Abstract
A first metal sheet and a second metal sheet are arranged opposite a printed circuit board including a second connector that fits into a first connector that is arranged at one end of a cable. A hole section through which the first connector passes is arranged in each of the first metal sheet and the second metal sheet. The first connector fits into the second connector by passing through each of the hole sections of the first metal sheet and the second metal sheet. The first metal sheet and the second metal sheet support a connector case of the first connector, thus improving the load bearing characteristics of the cable connection.
Claims14
A metal sheet structure comprising:
- a printed circuit board that includes a second connector that fits into a first connector for a cable;
- a first metal sheet that is provided with a first surface arranged opposite a connecting surface of the second connector on the printed circuit board and that is provided with a first hole section that holds the first connector that passes through the first hole section;
- and
- a second metal sheet that is arranged opposite a second surface of the first metal sheet and is provided with a second hole section that holds the first connector that passes through the second hole section,
- Wherein a distance between the first metal sheet and the second metal sheet is greater than half of the depth of the first connector.
An electronic device comprising:
- a housing;
- a printed circuit board that is arranged on any one of the surfaces of the housing and that includes a second connector that fits into a first connector for a cable;
- a first metal sheet that is provided with a first surface arranged opposite a connecting surface of the second connector on the printed circuit board and that is provided with a first hole section that holds the first connector that passes through the first hole section;
- and
- a second metal sheet that is arranged opposite a second surface of the first metal sheet and is provided with a second hole section that holds the first connector that passes through the second hole section,
- wherein a distance between the first metal sheet and the second metal sheet is greater than half of the depth of the first connector.
