Embodiment Construction

[0028] figure 1 (A) is a perspective view showing a state in which a connector assembly according to an embodiment of the present invention is installed in a signal processing unit housed in an electronic device (not shown) and a measurement unit extending from the electronic device, figure 1 (B) is its side view.

[0029] exist figure 1 In (A) and (B), the signal processing unit I housed in the electronic device and the measurement unit II extending from the electronic device are shown. The electronic device and the measurement unit II constitute, for example, an endoscope system. In this case, the electronic device forms a main body of the endoscope system, and the measurement unit II forms an endoscope.

[0030] The signal processing unit I is configured to convert the optical signal received from the measuring unit II through the optical fiber cable F into an electronic signal, and process it. A plurality of connector assemblies 1 for conversion, and a processor 2 as a ...

Abstract

The invention provides a connector assembly capable of connecting a pair of terminals arranged in the same column to a driving device with the same connection length to form a signal transmission pathwith the same condition. The connector assembly (1) is provided with: a plug connector (3) having built therein a photoelectric conversion element (20) capable of converting an optical signal and anelectrical signal from one side to the other side, and a drive device (21) for driving the photoelectric conversion element; and a receptacle connector (4) into which the plug connector is fitted, theplug connector and the receptacle connector being electrically connected by contact of terminals of each other, and for the plug connector, the front end side of an optical fiber cable (F) for transmitting an optical signal is connected to the rear end side of the plug connector and extends and protrudes rearward. Side terminals (51) are respectively arranged on a pair of side edge parts (33) extending in the front-rear direction (X), and end terminals (52) are arranged on a front end edge part (34) extending perpendicularly to the front-rear direction (X).

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a connector assembly including a plug connector capable of converting an optical signal and an electrical signal from one to the other, and a receptacle connector into which the plug connector is fitted. Background technique [0002] Such a connector assembly is disclosed in Patent Document 1, for example. In Patent Document 1, with respect to the plug connector ("connector 1" in Patent Document 1), the optical fiber cable used for optical signal transmission is connected so as to extend and protrude from the plug connector in one direction (rearward). The optical signal transmitted by the above-mentioned optical fiber cable is converted into an electric signal by a light-receiving element as a photoelectric conversion element built in the above-mentioned plug connector. In this plug connector, in addition to the photoelectric conversion element described above, a driving device for driving the photoelectric conversion...
