Problems solved by technology

Therefore, the shielding structure as disclosed in the known FPC connector cannot be applied to a connector equipped with a locking member.
However, in the case where the shell is not installed outside the shell, various problems will arise, such as parasitic radiated electromagnetic waves will be emitted from the connector itself, and external electromagnetic waves will enter the electrical circuit of the connector

Abstract

EMI properties are improved in an electrical connector for flat cables (1) and in a shield member (30) used therein. The electrical connector for flat cables (1) is constituted by: contacts (4), for contacting a shielding surface of a flat cable (100), which is inserted into the connector (1); an insulative housing (2), for holding the contacts (4), which is mounted on a circuit board (80) having a grounding portion (82); and the shield member (30), which is mounted on the insulative housing (2) so as to cover the outer surfaces thereof. The shielding surface of the flat cable (100) and the grounding portion (82) of the circuit board (80) are electrically connected when the shield member (30) is mounted on the insulative housing (2).

Description

technical field [0001] This invention relates to electrical connectors for flat cables, which are used in electronic devices such as mobile phones. The invention also relates to a shielding component for use in electrical connectors for flat cables. In particular, the present invention relates to flat cable shielded (electromagnetic shielded) electrical connectors and shielding components for its application. Background technique [0002] Japanese Patent Pending Publication No. 2000-231971 ( figure 1 , figure 2 ) discloses a connector to FPC (Flexible Printed Circuit) as an example of a known flat cable electrical connector. This connector consists of a pair of connectors, one on the board side and the other on the cable (FPC) side. A housing (shielding member) is mounted on the outside of each of the pair of connectors. Connect the ground conductor of the FPC to the shell of the connector on the cable side. [0003] In the known FPC connector, a housing is mounted on...
