Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
There is provided a connector comprising: a given-polarity electrode jack terminal coupled to a given-polarity electrode of a power supply; a first other-polarity electrode jack terminal coupled to an other-polarity electrode of the power supply through a resistor and a capacitor; and a second other-polarity electrode jack terminal coupled to the other-polarity electrode of the power supply; wherein the first other-polarity electrode jack terminal and the second other-polarity electrode jack terminal are respectively in contact with a plug terminal of the other-polarity electrode included in another connector, the first other-polarity electrode jack terminal and the second other-polarity electrode jack terminal are disposed on a line extended in a length direction of the plug terminal of the other-polarity electrode, and the first other-polarity electrode jack terminal is disposed at a position closer to the other connector than a position of the second other-polarity electrode jack terminal.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1 . A connector comprising: a given-polarity electrode jack terminal coupled to a given-polarity electrode of a power supply; a first other-polarity electrode jack terminal coupled to an other-polarity electrode of the power supply through a resistor and a capacitor; and a second other-polarity electrode jack terminal coupled to the other-polarity electrode of the power supply; wherein the first other-polarity electrode jack terminal and the second other-polarity electrode jack terminal are respectively in contact with a plug terminal of the other-polarity electrode included in another connector, the first other-polarity electrode jack terminal and the second other-polarity electrode jack terminal are disposed on a line extended in a length direction of the plug terminal of the other-polarity electrode, and the first other-polarity electrode jack terminal is disposed at a position closer to the other connector than a position of the second other-polarity electrode jack terminal in a state where the connector and the other connector are engaged with each other. 2 . The connector as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the capacitor and the resistor are coupled in series between the power supply and the first other-polarity electrode jack terminal. 3 . The connector as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the given-polarity electrode is a negative electrode, and the other-polarity electrode is a positive electrode. 4 . The connector as claimed in claim 1 , wherein upon the connector being separated from the other connector, the first other-polarity electrode jack terminal is separated from the plug terminal of the other-polarity electrode after the second other-polarity electrode jack terminal is separated from the plug terminal of the other-polarity electrode. 5 . A connector comprising a male connector and the connector of claim 1 , wherein the connector of claimed claim 1 is a female connector, and the male connector includes an given-polarity electrode plug terminal for being in contact with the given-polarity electrode jack terminal. 6 . A connector comprising: a given-polarity electrode jack terminal coupled to a given-polarity electrode of a power supply; a first other-polarity electrode jack terminal coupled to an other-polarity electrode of the power supply through a resistor and a capacitor; and a second other-polarity electrode jack terminal coupled to the other-polarity electrode of the power supply; wherein the first other-polarity electrode jack terminal and the second other-polarity electrode jack terminal are respectively in contact with a plug terminal of the other-polarity electrode included in another connector, the first other-polarity electrode jack terminal and the second other-polarity electrode jack terminal are disposed on a line extended in a length direction of the plug terminal of the other-polarity electrode, and upon the connector, whose first other-polarity electrode jack terminal and second other-polarity electrode jack terminal are in contact with the plug terminal of the other-polarity electrode, being separated from the other connector, the first other-polarity electrode jack terminal is separated from the plug terminal of the other-polarity electrode after the second other-polarity electrode jack terminal is separated from the plug terminal of the other-polarity electrode. 7 . The connector as claimed in claim 6 , wherein one terminal of the capacitor is coupled to the other-polarity electrode of the power supply, the other terminal of the capacitor is coupled to one terminal of the resistor, and the other terminal of the resistor is coupled to the first other-polarity electrode jack terminal. 8 . A connector connectable to another connector, the connector comprising: a first jack terminal configured to be coupled to a first plug terminal of the another connector; a second jack terminal configured to be coupled to a second plug terminal of the another connector; and a third jack terminal configured to be coupled to the second plug terminal of the another connector, and a resistor and a capacitor are connected in series thereto; wherein upon the connector being separated from the another connector, the second jack terminal is separated from the second plug terminal after the third jack terminal is separated from the second plug terminal, and the first jack terminal is separated from the first plug terminal after the second jack terminal is separated from the second plug terminal.
