Patent ID: 8313342

Claim:
A structure of electromagnetic wave resistant connector for flexible flat cable, the flexible flat cable having a first surface and a second surface, the flexible flat cable extending in a cable extension direction to form an insertion section at a free end thereof and also forms an insertion device mounting section in a section thereof adjacent to the insertion section; the first surface of the flexible flat cable forming a plurality of conductive traces, which extend through the insertion device mounting section into the insertion section of the flexible flat cable to form a plurality of conductive contacts in the insertion section; an insulation layer formed on the first surface of the flexible flat cable and surfaces of the conductive traces; an insertion device mounted on the insertion device mounting section, the insertion device comprising a metal member that is at least partly formed of a metal material; and characterized in that the insulation layer has a surface that forms, in at least a portion thereof, a conductive shielding layer, the conductive shielding layer extending to the insertion device mounting section, whereby when the insertion device is mounted on the insertion device mounting section, electrical connection is formed between the metal member of the insertion device and the conductive shielding layer.
