CONNECTOR - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240347981 titled 'CONNECTOR

The abstract of the patent application describes a connector comprising a shield member, a housing, and a grounding member that grounds the shield member. The grounding member includes a main body with a planar shape and a contact portion that is elastically deformable and contacts a grounding object. The shield member includes an engagement portion that holds the grounding member in place.

  • Shield member, housing, and grounding member make up the connector.
  • Grounding member has a main body with a planar shape and a contact portion for grounding.
  • Shield member has an engagement portion to secure the grounding member.

Potential Applications: - Electronic devices - Communication systems - Industrial equipment

Problems Solved: - Ensures proper grounding for shielded connectors - Prevents electromagnetic interference

Benefits: - Improved signal quality - Enhanced device performance - Increased reliability

Commercial Applications: Title: "Enhanced Shielded Connector for Improved Signal Quality" This technology can be used in various industries such as telecommunications, aerospace, and automotive for better signal transmission and reduced interference.

Questions about the technology: 1. How does the grounding member improve the performance of the connector? The grounding member ensures proper grounding, reducing electromagnetic interference and improving signal quality.

2. What are the potential drawbacks of using this shielded connector? While the connector offers improved performance, it may be more complex to assemble and maintain compared to standard connectors.


Original Abstract Submitted

a connector includes: a shield member; a housing to which the shield member is assembled; and a grounding member configured to ground the shield member. the grounding member includes: a main body having a planar shape; and a contact portion formed of a single member continuous with the main body in an elastically deformable manner and configured to contact a grounding object. the shield member includes an engagement portion configured to engage with the main body and hold the grounding member in the shield member.
