Abstract

A shield connector 1 includes an L-shaped terminal 2 which includes an opposite-side connection portion 21 ; an inner housing 3 which holds a terminal 2 ; a tubular inner shell 4 which surrounds the opposite-side connection portion 21 ; a tubular outer housing 5 which accommodates the inner shell 4 ; and an outer shell 6 which is attached to the outer housing 5 . The outer shell 6 includes a covering portion 64 which covers a second opening 71 of the outer housing 5 and a first opening 81 of the inner shell 4 ; a pair of sandwiching portions 66 which is bent upward from the outer edge of the covering portion 64 so as to elastically sandwich the inner shell 4 therebetween; and an earth portion which is grounded.

Claims (11)

1. A shield connector, comprising:

an L-shaped terminal, including an opposite-side connection portion fitted to an opposite terminal and a substrate-side connection portion extending in a direction perpendicular to the opposite-side connection portion so as to be connected to a print substrate;

an inner housing which holds the terminal;

an inner shell which is formed in a tube shape by bending a metal plate and is attached to an outer periphery of the inner housing in a shape in which the opposite-side connection portion is surrounded;

a tubular outer housing which accommodates the inner shell in a shape in which the opposite-side connection portion is surrounded; and

an outer shell which is formed by bending a metal plate and is attached to the outer housing,

wherein the inner shell is provided with a notch portion which is formed by cutting a part of the inner shell from an outer edge on the side of a first opening, allowing the inner housing to be inserted therethrough, toward the other opening, allowing the opposite terminal to be inserted therethrough, and which allows the substrate-side connection portion to pass therethrough,

wherein the outer housing is provided with a notch portion which is formed by cutting a part of the outer housing from an outer edge on the side of a second opening, allowing the inner shell to be inserted therethrough, toward the other opening, allowing the opposite terminal to be inserted therethrough, and which allows the substrate-side connection portion to pass therethrough, and

wherein the outer shell is provided with a covering portion which covers the first opening of at least the inner shell, a pair of sandwiching portions which is bent upward from an outer edge of the covering portion and elastically sandwiches the inner shell therebetween, and an earth portion which is grounded.

2. The shield connector according to claim 1 , wherein the first opening of the inner shell and the second opening of the outer housing are disposed on the same plane, and

wherein the covering portion covers both the first opening and the second opening.
