Abstract
In a connector that includes a slider having a cam groove which a boss of a mating connector is to enter and a lever making the slider perform an operation, sliders are positioned in a space between an inner housing and an outer housing, and a protrusion is formed on one of the sliders and the inner housing and a concave portion is formed on the other. In a separation state from the mating connector, the sliders are pushed by spring pieces to be in a locked state, in which the protrusion enters the concave portion, and accordingly, the sliding operation and the operation of a lever are both blocked. When fitting with the mating connector is started, the sliders are pushed by the mating connector, and accordingly, the sliders are displaced in directions separating from the inner housing, and the locked state is released.

Each contact (33) supports one contact portion (85) by two spring pieces (90) which extend parallel to each other while being separated from each other in a pitch direction and both ends of which are connected. By expanding two spring pieces (90) of each contact (33) toward each other in the pitch direction such that the two spring pieces (90) of each contact (33) approach each other while maintaining a predetermined pitch P and an outside spring space S2, the contact pressure of each contact (33) is increased while the predetermined pitch P and the impedance of each contact (33) are maintained.

Abstract
An atomic beam is irradiated with a first, a second, and a third laser beam. The first laser beam and the third laser beam each have a wavelength corresponding to a transition between a ground state and a first excited state. The second laser beam has a wavelength corresponding to a transition between the ground state and a second excited state. First, atoms each having a smaller velocity component than a predetermined velocity in a direction orthogonal to the traveling direction of the atomic beam are changed from the ground state to the first excited state by the first laser beam. Subsequently, a momentum is provided for individual atoms in the ground state by the second laser beam, which removes the atoms from the atomic beam. Finally, atoms in the first excited state are returned from the first excited state to the ground state by the third laser beam.
When an upper contact part is not in contact with a signal pad, a lower contact part is not in contact with a short-circuiting pad, and when the upper contact part comes into contact with the signal pad and an elastic deformation part is elastically deformed, the lower contact part comes into contact with the short-circuiting pad. The current path length from the upper contact part to the lower contact part is shorter than the current path length from the upper contact part to a soldering part.

Abstract
A connector includes lead parts and terminal parts to be connected to lands of a substrate, respectively. An anisotropic conductive joining member (ACJM) is mounted in a region where the lead parts are located. The ACJM is a resin in which solder particles are dispersed. The resin can melt at a temperature lower than the melting point of the solder particles. Cream solder is placed on the lands to be connected to the terminal parts. The substrate on which the connector is mounted is passed through a reflow oven to heat both the substrate and the connector. The connection between the terminal parts and the lands by reflow soldering and the connection between the lead parts and the lands via the ACJM 40 are performed simultaneously with each other.

Abstract
A connector with an interlock housing, to which an interlock terminal is attached, separately from a lever that performs connection and disconnection of main terminals with a mating connector, and a first spring piece is formed on the lever. After the main terminals are mutually connected by rotating the lever from a first position to a second position, the lever is slid from the second position to a third position and the interlock housing is pushed down from an opening position to a closing position. When the lever is on the third position and the interlock housing is on the opening position, the first spring piece generates a first elastic restoring force. When applying no external force that slides the lever to the third position against the first elastic restoring force, the lever moves away from the third position and the interlock housing cannot be pushed down.
