Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A connector is formed by fixing two or more connector parts each made from a resin to each other by press fitting or with an adhesive. At least one weld part regulating thermal deformation between the connector parts is formed in a boundary portion between the adjoining connector parts.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A connector comprising two or more connector parts, each connector part made from a resin, which are fixed to each other by press fitting or an adhesive, and a plurality of contacts each made from an electrically conductive metal, wherein at least one weld part regulating thermal deformation between the connector parts is formed in a boundary portion between the adjoining connector parts, wherein said weld part includes at least one dot-shaped weld part which is formed between the contacts. 2. The connector according to claim 1 , wherein the weld part includes a linear weld part. 3. The connector according to claim 2 , wherein a recessed cavity or an opening portion is formed in one connector part among the adjoining connector parts and the other connector part is housed and disposed in the recessed cavity or the opening portion, whereby the boundary portion is extended circularly and the linear weld part is formed over a full circumference of the circular boundary zone. 4. The connector according to claim 1 , comprising more than one dot-shaped weld parts, wherein the dot-shaped weld parts are disposed at a predetermined interval.
