Abstract

In the present invention, a receptacle connector is mounted to a substrate (6), and fits together with a plug connector in the normal direction of a mounting surface (6a) of the substrate (6). A plurality of electrically conductive receptacle terminals (11) respectively connect to a signal electrode pattern that is formed on the mounting surface (6a) of the substrate (6), contact plug terminals of the plug connector, and are arrayed in one row in the same orientation as one another along the mounting surface (6a) of the substrate (6), adjacent pairs transmitting a differential signal as one set. A plurality of shield plates (12) are connected to a ground electrode pattern that is formed on the mounting surface (6a), and are erected so as to extend in a Y-axis direction that is orthogonal to the array direction of the receptacle terminals (11) in the mounting surface (6a), at positions that divide the array of the receptacle terminals (11) into sets, and at positions on both ends of the array of the receptacle terminals (11). An electrically conductive ground plate (13) is connected to the ground electrode pattern that is formed on the mounting surface (6a), and is erected so as to extend in the array direction of the receptacle terminals (11) in the vicinity of the end surfaces of the shield plates (12) on one side in the Y-axis direction. An insulating receptacle housing retains the receptacle terminals (11), the shield plates (12), and the ground plate (13) in a state in which the receptacle terminals are insulated from the shield plates and the ground plate.

Abstract

A connector includes a housing. The housing includes a terminal placement space, a first insertion space, a first guide, a retraction area, and a second guide. The first guide is placed frontward of the first insertion space on a positive X direction side in an insertion direction in which the first board is inserted and guides insertion of the first board in an inclination direction inclined relative to an X-axis direction. The retraction area is placed continuously with the first guide and retracts a leading edge on a negative X direction side of the first board from the terminal. The second guide is placed continuously with the retraction area, decreases inclination of the first board inserted in the inclination direction, and guides the first board to come into contact with the terminal.

Abstract

A connector (100) is provided with: a housing (10); a detecting terminal (20) that is accommodated inside the housing (10) and that detects contact with a terminal (51) to be detected of a mating connector (200); and a beam-shaped lock arm (30) that is attached to the housing (10), that is pressed by the mating connector (200) and is bent in the middle of connection, and that is restored upon connection. The detecting terminal (20) includes: a cantilever elastic piece (22); and a contact section (24) that is formed at an end section of the elastic piece (22) and that comes into contact with the terminal (51) to be detected. The lock arm (30) includes a pressing section (31) that presses the elastic piece (22). When the lock arm (30) is bent in the middle of connection with the mating connector (200), the pressing section (31) presses the elastic piece (22) such that the contact section (24) formed at the end section of the elastic piece (22) becomes displaced in a direction away from the terminal (51) to be detected, whereby the detecting terminal (20) is brought into a state in which the detecting terminal (20) is not in contact with the terminal (51) to be detected.

Abstract

The present invention provides a cable assembly, wherein a coaxial cable is configured from a central conductor (2a), a dielectric (2b), an external conductor (2c), and an external casing (2d). A pair of ground bars (4A, 4B) are connected to a ground member of a plug connector. In the coaxial cable, the outer peripheral surface extending in the X-axis direction is exposed from one end in the extension direction in the order of the central conductor (2a), the external conductor (2c), and the external casing (2d), thereby forming a first exposed part (3a) where the outer peripheral surface of the central conductor (2a) is exposed, and a second exposed part (3b) where the outer peripheral surface of the external conductor (2c) is exposed. A plurality of the coaxial cables are arranged in a direction intersecting the X-axis direction in a state in which the first exposed part (3a) and the second exposed part (3b) are aligned in relation to the extension direction, the ground bars (4A, 4B) contacting the second exposed part (3b) and sandwiching the plurality of coaxial cables. The outer peripheral surface of the dielectric (2b) extending in the extension direction is configured so as not to be exposed by the external conductor (2c).

Abstract

A substance sensor includes sensitive membranes to react with substances included in the odors of a gas in correspondence with the substances, and is configured to detect the reaction values of the sensitive membranes. An odor specifier specifies the odors of the gas on the basis of the reaction values of the sensitive membranes. A reaction value calculator calculates reaction values corresponding to the odors specified by the odor specifier on the basis of the reaction values of the sensitive membranes. A percentage calculator calculates the percentages of the reaction values corresponding to the odors specified by the odor specifier to the total of the reaction values corresponding to the odors. A display displays the percentages of the reaction values corresponding to the odors, calculated by the percentage calculator, so that comparison of the percentages is enabled between the odors specified by the odor specifier.

Abstract

In a first phase synchronization circuit (10A), a phase comparison unit (13) receives, as inputs, a detection signal and a driving signal of a first vibration system (20A), and outputs a signal indicating a phase difference between the inputted detection signal and the inputted driving signal. A loop filter (14) smoothes the signal that indicates the phase difference and that has been outputted from the phase comparison unit (13). A voltage control oscillation unit (15) outputs, as an output signal, a signal having a frequency increased in accordance with the magnitude of a signal smoothed by the loop filter (14). A phase shift unit (12) shifts the phase of the detection signal by an adjustable phase shift amount θ. A volume amplifier (16) amplifies the driving signal outputted from the voltage control oscillation unit (15) by an adjustable amplification rate, and outputs the amplified driving signal.
