Comb style connector and connecting assembly with the same

1 . A comb type connector comprising:

a base made of a conductive metal material; and

a plurality of thin plate terminals made of a conductive metal material and which protrude as plates from the base and are spaced apart from and overlap each other on one side surface of the base; and

wherein at least one of the thin plate terminals includes a coupling hook protruding from a side surface of the plate.

2 . The comb type connector of claim 1 , wherein the conductive metal material comprises at least one of copper (Cu), a copper alloy, aluminium (Al), and an aluminium alloy.

3 . The comb type connector of claim 1 , wherein

a distal end of the thin plate terminal is rounded or tapered.

4 . The comb type connector of claim 1 , wherein a thickness of each of the plurality of thin plate terminals and an interval between the plurality of thin plate terminals are substantially the same.

5 . The comb type connector of claim 4 , wherein the thickness of each of the plurality of thin plate terminals is 0.2 mm to 1.0 mm.

6 . A connector assembly comprising:

a first comb type connector comprising a first base and a plurality of first thin plate terminals which protrude from the first base and are spaced apart from and overlap each other on one side surface of the first base;

a second comb type connector comprising a second base and a plurality of second thin plate terminals which protrude from the second base and are spaced apart from and overlap each other on one side surface of the second base, wherein, when approaching the first comb type connector, the plurality of second thin plate terminals are alternately inserted into the plurality of first thin plate terminals so as to be conductively connected to the first comb type connector; and

a locking unit that locks to prevent the first comb type connector and the second comb type connector from being unintentionally separated from each other when the first comb type connector and the second comb type connector are conductively connected to each other, the locking unit including

a coupling hook protruding from a side surface of one of the first thin plate terminal and the second thin plate terminal, and

a coupling through-hole formed by passing through the other one of the first thin plate terminal and the second thin plate terminal in a thickness direction so that the coupling hook is seated when the plurality of second thin plate terminals are alternately inserted into the plurality of first thin plate terminals.

7 . The connector assembly of claim 6 , wherein when the plurality of second thin plate terminals are alternately inserted into the plurality of first thin plate terminals, the first thin plate terminal and the second thin plate terminal, which are adjacent to each other, are in surface contact with each other.

8 . The connector assembly of claim 6 , wherein a thickness of each of the plurality of thin plate terminals, an interval between the plurality of first thin plate terminals, a thickness of each of the second thin plate terminals, and an interval between the plurality of second thin plate terminals are substantially the same.

9 . The connector assembly of claim 6 , wherein a distal end of the first thin plate terminal and a distal end of the second thin plate terminal are rounded or tapered.

10 . A comb type connector comprising:

a base made of a conductive metal material; and

a plurality of thin plate terminals made of a conductive metal material and which protrude as plates from the base and are spaced apart from and overlap each other on one side surface of the base; and

wherein the thickness of each of the plurality of thin plate terminals is 0.2 mm to 1.0 mm.
