Patent ID: 8157590

Claim:
A connector set, comprising: a jack side connector configured to be connected to a plug side connector, the plug side connector including a plurality of plug side linear signal contacts and plug side linear ground contacts extending from a holding part, wherein the jack side connector includes a plurality of jack side signal contacts and jack side ground contacts configured to come in contact with the plug side linear signal contacts and the plug side linear ground contacts respectively, so that electric conduction between the plug side connector and the jack side connector is made when the plug side connector is connected to the jack side connector, wherein each of the jack side ground contacts includes a first contact part configured to come in contact with the plug side linear ground contact at a first linear point in a direction perpendicular to a longitudinal direction of the ping side linear ground contact, and a second contact part configured to come in contact with the plug side linear ground contact at a second linear point located along the plug side linear ground contact, in a substantially horizontal direction at a location further inside of the jack side connector compared to the first linear point, when the plug side connector is connected to the jack side connector, the electric conduction between the plug side connector and the jack side connector is made by the first contact part and the second contact part, wherein a notch part is formed in the plug side linear ground contact from a head end part at a designated length in the longitudinal direction of the plug side linear ground contact, and wherein the jack side ground contact includes an arm part, the arm part being configured to sandwich the plug side linear ground contact in a direction perpendicular to a longitudinal direction of the arm part when the plug side linear connector is connected to the jack side connector, when the plug side connector is connected to the jack side connector, the first contact part is pressed by the plug side linear ground contact toward an outside, as seen from an engagement center axis, and presses and contacts the plug side linear ground contact by a restoring force of the arm part; and when the plug side connector is connected to the jack side connector, the second contact part presses the plug side linear ground contact to the engagement center axis side and is pressed and contacts the plug side linear ground contact by a restoring force of the plug side linear ground contact.
