PHOTOELECTRIC COMPOSITE CONNECTOR AND PORTABLE ELECTRONIC EQUIPMENT

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a photoelectric composite connector and portable electronic equipment that can be miniaturized and reduced in thickness.SOLUTION: In a photoelectric composite connector having two connectors each of which has at least one optical connection part and at least two electrical connection parts, one of the electrical connection parts connected to each other is set as a pin 35, and the other electrical connection part is set as a contact 44b. The connector having a spring contact 44b has a positioning hole 42d at the front side of the spring contact 44b, the pin 35 being inserted in the positioning hole 42d. The tip of the pin 35 is brought into contact with and electrically connected to the spring contact 44b, and the root of the pin 35 is fitted in the positioning hole 42d, thereby positioning for optical connection. In at least one of the connectors, an optical part containing the optical connection part is formed of light-transmissible resin, and the electrical connection part is embedded in the optical part. 【課題】小型化、軽薄化を可能とする。【解決手段】少なくとも１つの光接続部と、少なくとも２つの電気接続部をそれぞれ有する２つのコネクタからなる光電複合コネクタにおいて、互いに接続される電気接続部の一方をピン３５とし、他方をばね接点４４ｂとする。ばね接点４４ｂを有するコネクタはばね接点４４ｂの前方にピン３５が挿入される位置決め穴４２ｄを備え、ピン３５の先端がばね接点４４ｂと接触して電気接続がなされ、ピン３５の根元が前記位置決め穴４２ｄに嵌まることで光接続のための位置決めがなされる。コネクタの少なくとも一方は光接続部を含む光学部品が光を透過する樹脂からなり、光学部品に電気接続部が組み込まれている。【選択図】図３
