Abstract

In an accommodation hole of a dielectric, an external connection terminal, a board connection terminal, and a first coil spring that make up an internal conductor are disposed compactly in a straight line along the hole axis of the accommodation hole. Therefore, an external connection connector can be reduced in size in the radial direction, the projected area on a second board can also be reduced, and it is possible to contribute to the reduction in size of the entire imaging device by the reduction in size of the second board.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1 . An electronic component comprising:
a housing accommodating an imaging component including a board having a first contact portion and a second contact portion; and an external device connection portion conductively connecting the imaging component to an external device, wherein the external device connection portion includes a first rod-shaped contact piece that conductively contacts the first contact portion, a conductive first elastic member that urges the first rod-shaped contact piece toward the first contact portion, a dielectric that is formed in a tubular shape and has an accommodation hole accommodating the first rod-shaped contact piece and the first elastic member displaceably in the hole axis direction, and an external conductor that is formed in a tubular shape and holds the outer periphery of the dielectric.

2 . The electronic component according to claim 1 , wherein the external device connection portion further includes a second rod-shaped contact piece that is disposed coaxially with the first rod-shaped contact piece and conductively contacts the external device through the first elastic member.

3 . The electronic component according to claim 1 , wherein the first elastic member is a coil spring.

4 . The electronic component according to claim 1 , wherein the external device connection portion further includes a tubular contact piece that is disposed on the outside of the external conductor concentrically and conductively contacts the external conductor and the second contact portion, and a second elastic member that urges the tubular contact piece toward the second contact portion.

5 . The electronic component according to claim 4 , wherein the second elastic member is a coil spring.

6 . The electronic component according to claim 1 , further comprising the imaging component including the board having the first contact portion and the second contact portion in an internal space of the housing, wherein a movable gap in which the board can move in its plate surface direction is provided between the housing and the board, and the first contact portion is formed to be larger than the length of the movable gap.

7 . The electronic component according to claim 6 , wherein the second contact portion is formed to be larger than the length of the movable gap.

8 . An imaging device comprising the electronic component according to claim 1 .
