Flexible printed circuit connector
January 22, 2022
Original application number PRIORITY TEXT SELECTION A flexible printed circuit connector (20) is disclosed for electrically connecting a flexible printed circuit and other electronic devices including an insulative body (22), conductive terminals (24) housed in the insulative body, and plugs respectively A pair of metal ears (26) at both ends of the insulating body and a driving plate (28) pivotally connected to the metal ear. The metal ear is provided with a body portion (260), an arc-shaped elastic arm (262) and a bent catching arm (264) extending on the side of the body portion, and a hook (266) bent from the end of the body portion. The drive plate includes a base (280) and a pair of pivots (282) extending perpendicularly from both sides of the base. When the pivot is accommodated in the receiving space (265) enclosed by the arc-shaped elastic arm and the bent retaining arm, the elastic end (263) of the arc-shaped elastic arm abuts on the pivot, so that the drive plate can be stably held; The bent extension arrangement can increase the length of the hook overhang, increase the deformability of the hook, and prevent the hooks from yielding due to excessive deformation when being engaged with the drive plate. Sovereign Item 1. A flexible printed circuit connector for electrically connecting a flexible printed circuit and other electronic devices, comprising an insulative body, a plurality of conductive terminals accommodated in the insulative body, and metal respectively inserted at both ends of the insulative body And an ear and a driving plate pivotally connected to the metal ear, wherein the metal ear includes a main body, a retaining arm bent upwards and extended from the main body, and a hook extending from the end of the main body. The driving board includes a base and The pivot shaft extending on both sides of the base is characterized in that the metal ear is provided with an arc-shaped elastic arm, the arc-shaped elastic arm and the holding arm enclose an accommodating space, and the pivot is accommodated in the accommodating space and is suspended by the arc-shaped elastic arm. Place the elastic end abutment.
