Abstract:
In a magnetic connector acquiring connection with a mating connector by magnetic force, a base member has a particular surface to be faced to the mating connector upon connection. An electrode terminal is fixed to the base member and adapted to be electrically connected to the mating connector. The base member has a magnetic force generating portion having a plurality of magnetic poles for producing the magnetic force. N and the S poles of the magnetic poles are alternately arranged along the particular surface in a predetermined direction. Thus, the connector is properly positioned relative to the mating connector by the magnetic force.
Abstract:
A method for connecting a flexible printed circuit (FPC) with a flexible circuitry component containing conducting wires is disclosed. The flexible circuitry component has an uncovered conducting portion. The proposed method includes providing a tenon and a holder with a groove corresponding to the tenon; and utilizing the tenon to wedge the uncovered conducting portion of the flexible circuitry component and a connecting region of the FPC in the groove of the holder to cause that the uncovered conducting portion contacts the connecting region.

The present invention comprises an inexpensive and simple means for electrically and mechanically connecting a plurality of printed circuits together. The present invention also comprised embodiments where the printed circuits can be moved relative to each other without breaking the electrical contact between them. Yet another embodiment contemplates a means for joining two linear printed circuits to make a longer circuit. In yet another embodiment, the printed circuits and connections are used to make an inexpensive, reliable electrical harness for contacting a patient-worn sensor to a patient monitor such as an ECG monitor.
Abstract:
A fixing member is spaced from a head actuator by a predetermined distance. A flexible printed circuit board extends at least from the head actuator to the fixing member. The flexible printed circuit board is superposed on the surface of the fixing member. A viscoelastic layer and a protecting layer are overlaid on the surface of the flexible printed circuit board. A clip clips all the fixing member, the flexible printed circuit board, the viscoelastic layer and the protecting layer together. When a head slider is positioned, the head actuator changes its attitude relative to a recording disk. The inertial force based on the rotation causes the first flexible printed circuit board to vibrate when the actuator block stops rotating. The viscoelastic layer serves to absorb this residual vibration of the first flexible printed circuit board. Vibration of the flexible printed circuit board can be suppressed.
Abstract:
In order to provide a wired circuit board in which electrical continuity inspection can be omitted and a connection structure of the wired circuit board, in connection between a first wired circuit board 1 and a second wired circuit board 2, a first connection terminal 13 and a second connection terminal 14 are abutted against each other in the direction in which they are opposed along the respective longitudinal direction of the wired circuit boards, and are arranged in line with each other, and a solder bump 15 is provided so as to continuously extend over surfaces of the first connection terminal 13 and the second connection terminal 14. Consequently, the solder bump 15 is not interposed between opposed surfaces of the first connection terminal 13 and the second connection terminal 14, thereby allowing electrical connection by the solder bump 15 between the first connection terminal 13 and the second connection terminal 14 to be confirmed from the appearance by visual observation.
