Connector
A connector is provided with a housing made of resin and including a first opening open upward, and a terminal made of conductive metal and partially embedded in the housing. The terminal includes a base end portion projecting forward from an inner wall on a rear surface side in the first opening of the housing, a connecting portion provided to extend forward and to be connected to a mating device, and a coupling portion coupling a front end part of the base end portion and a rear end part of the connecting portion. The base end portion and the connecting portion are disposed on different axes when viewed in a third direction orthogonal to an upward direction and a forward direction. A length L 1 of the base end portion is equal to or longer than a length L 2 between the base end portion and the connecting portion.
1. A connector, comprising:
a housing made of resin, the housing including an opening open in a first direction; and
a terminal made of conductive metal, the terminal being partially embedded in the housing,
wherein:
the terminal includes:
a base end portion projecting from a first inner wall in the opening of the housing in a second direction toward a second inner wall facing the first inner wall;
a connecting portion provided to extend in the second direction, the connecting portion being connected to a mating device; and
a coupling portion coupling an end part of the base end portion in the second direction and an end part of the connecting portion in a direction opposite to the second direction,
the base end portion and the connecting portion are disposed on different axes when the terminal is viewed in a third direction orthogonal to the first direction and the second direction,
an entire length of the base end portion is equal to or longer than a length in the first direction between the base end portion and the connecting portion,
a first axis of the base end portion does not overlap a second axis of the connecting portion when the terminal is viewed in the first direction, and
the first and second axes are parallel to the second direction.
2. The connector according to claim 1 , wherein the base end portion and the connecting portion are disposed on different axes when the terminal is viewed in the first direction.
3. The connector according to claim 1 , wherein the connecting portion is plate-like, and a connection hole to be connected to the mating device is provided to be open in a plate surface of the connecting portion.
4. The connector according to claim 3 , wherein the connection hole of the connecting portion is provided at a position closer to the second inner wall than to the first inner wall.
5. The connector according to claim 1 , wherein the first axis is disposed along a center of the base end portion, and the second axis is disposed along a center of the connecting portion.
6. A connector, comprising:
a housing including an opening open in a first direction; and
a terminal arranged in the housing, the terminal penetrating through an inner wall of the housing,
wherein:
the terminal includes:
a base end portion having a part projecting from the inner wall in a second direction, the second direction being a penetrating direction of the terminal,
a connecting portion provided to extend in the second direction, the connecting portion being separated from the base end portion by a predetermined distance in the first direction, the connecting portion being connected to a mating device; and
a coupling portion electrically connecting the base end portion and the connecting portion,
a length in the second direction of the part of the base end portion projecting from the inner wall is equal to or longer than a length in the first direction of the coupling portion,
a first axis of the base end portion does not overlap a second axis of the connecting portion when the terminal is viewed in the first direction, and
the first and second axes are parallel to the second direction.
