Abstract

Abstract In a shielded connector having a connector housing subjected to conductive electroplating, a conductive shield ring is fitted into a housing chamber of the connector housing and a partner-side shield contact portion is inserted into the inside of the shield ring. The shield contact has resilient contact pieces and is slidable within a predetermined range within the shield ring. The shield contact has a split portion so that is has resilience in the diameter expanding direction thereof. The shield contact is locked with the shield ring. A pressure-insertion space is formed within the housing chamber and the shield ring is provided with pressure-insertion portions.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 11
Claim 1
Independent Claim 156 words
A shield connector, comprising: a connector housing including a housing chamber therein, said housing chamber having an inner peripheral wall, and a conductive electroplated layer on said inner peripheral wall of said housing chamber; a conductive shield ring, into which a shield contact portion of a partner-side shielded connector is insertable, said conductive shield ring being fitted into the housing chamber and contacting with the conductive electroplated layer of the connector housing; and a conductive shield contact mounted on an inside of the shield ring, the shield contact for contacting with a shield contact portion of the partner-side shielded connector when the shield contact portion of the partner-side shielded connector is inserted into the shield ring, wherein the shield contact includes a split portion providing resilience to the shield contact in a direction to which a diameter of the shield contact expands, and wherein a terminal extends from said connector housing into said conductive shield contact.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 156 words
A shield connector, comprising: a connector housing including a housing chamber therein, said housing chamber having an inner peripheral wall, and a conductive electroplated layer on said inner peripheral wall of said housing chamber; a conductive shield ring, into which a shield contact portion of a partner-side shielded connector is insertable, said conductive shield ring being fitted into the housing chamber and contacting with the conductive electroplated layer of the connector housing; and a conductive shield contact mounted on an inside of the shield ring, the shield contact for contacting with a shield contact portion of the partner-side shielded connector when the shield contact portion of the partner-side shielded connector is inserted into the shield ring, wherein the shield contact includes a split portion providing resilience to the shield contact in a direction to which a diameter of the shield contact expands, and wherein a terminal extends from said connector housing into said conductive shield contact.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 15 words

Claim 5
Dependent Claim 15 words
The shielded connector of claim 3 , wherein the shield contact has an annular shape.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 15 words
The shielded connector of claim 2 , wherein the shield contact has an annular shape.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 21 words
The shielded connector of claim 1 , wherein the shield contact is slidable in a predetermined range within the shield ring.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 15 words
The shielded connector of claim 6 , wherein the shield contact has an annular shape.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim 15 words
