Board connector
View Patent ↗In a board connector including: a connector housing; and at least two types of terminals having different sizes and held in the connector housing, such that said at least two types of terminals are arranged in parallel with one another in the connector housing and projects from a rear wall of the connector housing so as to be bent downwardly to form L-shape, wherein a plurality of block, each of which is formed by a group of said at least two types of terminals, are arranged in a horizontal direction, and said two types of terminals are divided in a vertical direction in accordance with the size of the terminals in each block.
1. A board connector comprising:
a connector housing; and
at least two types of terminals which have different sizes and are held in the connector housing;
wherein said at least two types of terminals are arranged along parallel lines in the connector housing and project from a rear wall of the connector housing and are bent in a downward direction to form an L-shape,
wherein a plurality of blocks, each of which is formed by a group of said at least two types of terminals, are arranged in a horizontal direction,
wherein only one type of terminal is provided on each parallel line in each block, and
wherein the parallel lines are divided in a vertical direction in each block.
2. A board connector according to claim 1 , wherein the terminals having a thick-size, which are a first one of said at least two types of terminals, are arranged on an upper side of the block, and the terminals having a thin-size, which are a second one of said at least two types of terminals, are arranged on a lower side of the block, and
wherein the terminals having the thick-size are bent in a downward direction to form an L-shape at an outer position which is further from the connector housing than an inner position at which the terminals having the thin-size are bent.
3. A board connector according to claim 1 , wherein the plurality of blocks are separated by a distance which is greater than a distance that separates terminals of the same type in each block.
