Connector and electronic device
A connector ( 10 ) comprises: an insulator having an insertion groove into and from which a connection object ( 60 ) is insertable and removable; an actuator configured to rotate between an unlock position in which the connection object ( 60 ) is insertable and removable and a lock position in which the actuator presses the connection object ( 60 ), with respect to the insulator; and a contact held by the insulator and configured to be in contact with the connection object ( 60 ), wherein the contact includes: a first contact portion configured to be in contact with the connection object ( 60 ); and a second elastic portion configured to engage with a cam portion formed in the actuator and bias the actuator toward the lock position, the actuator includes: an operation portion configured to be operated toward the unlock position; and a support portion protruding more in a direction opposite to the operation portion than the cam portion, and configured to be in contact with the connection object ( 60 ) inserted in the insertion groove in the unlock position of the actuator.
1. A connector, comprising:
an insulator having an insertion groove into and from which a connection object is insertable and removable;
an actuator configured to rotate between an unlock position in which said connection object is insertable and removable and a lock position in which said actuator presses said connection object, with respect to said insulator; and
a contact held by said insulator and configured to be in contact with said connection object,
wherein said contact includes:
a first elastic portion configured to be in contact with said connection object; and
a second elastic portion configured to engage with a cam portion formed in said actuator and bias said actuator toward said lock position,
said actuator includes:
an operation portion configured to be operated toward said unlock position; and
a support portion protruding more in a direction opposite to said operation portion than said cam portion, and
said support portion has a support surface configured to, in said unlock position, be in contact with said connection object inserted in said insertion groove to be subjected to a reaction from said connection object that balances with a biasing force exerted on said actuator from said second elastic portion via said cam portion.
2. The connector according to claim 1 , wherein said operation portion is formed at an end of said actuator in an insertion direction of said connection object.
3. The connector according to claim 1 , wherein said cam portion in said actuator comprises a plurality of cam portions arranged, and said contact comprises a plurality of contacts arranged, and
said support portion is formed between a pair of said cam portions, at least throughout an arrangement region of said contacts.
4. He connector according to claim 1 , wherein said support portion has a support surface configured to be in contact with said connection object in said unlock position of said actuator, and
said support surface is a flat surface.
5. The connector according to claim 1 , wherein at least part of said support portion is configured to be located inside said insertion groove in said unlock position of said actuator.
6. The connector according to claim 1 , wherein said actuator includes a locking portion, and
said locking portion is configured to engage with a locked portion of said connection object inserted in said insertion groove in said lock position of said actuator, and disengage from said locked portion in said unlock position of said actuator.
7. An electronic device comprising the connector according to claim 1 .
