Abstract

Abstract In an onboard connector 10 , an outer housing 11 is fixed to a circuit board 22 in such a manner that external connection portions 36, 39, 42, 42 and 45 , projecting from respective first, second, third, fourth and fifth inner housings 13, 15, 17, 19 and 21 , are disposed within respective mating connector-fitting through holes 25 and 30 . The first, second, third, fourth and fifth inner housings 13, 15, 17, 19 and 21 and the outer housing 11 are mounted on the circuit board 22 in such a manner that these inner housings are disposed out of contact with the inner housing.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 4
Claim 1
Independent Claim 141 words
An onboard connector, comprising: a plurality of terminals, each having an external connection portion and a board connection portion; an inner housing, receiving the terminals, with the external connection portions and the board connection portions exposed; and an outer housing, having a mating connector-fitting through hole; wherein the onboard connector is mounted on a circuit board; and the inner housing is fixed to the circuit board such that the board connection portions are electrically connected to the circuit board; and the outer housing is fixed to the circuit board such that the mating connector-fitting through hole is disposed in registry with the external connection portions exposed from the inner housing; and the inner housing and the outer housing are mounted on the circuit board such that the inner housing and the outer housing are disposed out of contact with each other.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 141 words
An onboard connector, comprising: a plurality of terminals, each having an external connection portion and a board connection portion; an inner housing, receiving the terminals, with the external connection portions and the board connection portions exposed; and an outer housing, having a mating connector-fitting through hole; wherein the onboard connector is mounted on a circuit board; and the inner housing is fixed to the circuit board such that the board connection portions are electrically connected to the circuit board; and the outer housing is fixed to the circuit board such that the mating connector-fitting through hole is disposed in registry with the external connection portions exposed from the inner housing; and the inner housing and the outer housing are mounted on the circuit board such that the inner housing and the outer housing are disposed out of contact with each other.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 37 words
The onboard connector according to claim 1 , wherein the outer housing is fixed to the circuit board such that the external connection portions projecting from the inner housing, are disposed within the mating connector-fitting through hole.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 34 words
