Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP3295001
Kind Code:

Abstract:

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To reduce weight of a connector, and reduce manufacturing cost by forming a guiding cam groove to guide a signal connector to a connector receiver in a prescribed connection fixed condition by engaging with an engaging pin, on the connector receiver side.
SOLUTION: When a connector 10 is connected to a connector receiver 40 of a video processor and light source device 2, first of all, a light guide connecting rod 12 is inserted into a through hole 42 of a light guide adapter 43, and a positioning pin 18 is engaged with the inside of a guiding cam groove 55 slightly later than that, and a rotary handle 20 is rotated. Then, after an engaging pin 23 enters an inclined part of the guiding cam groove 55, the connector 10 is gradually attracted to the connector receiver 40 side, and in a condition where the engaging pin 23 reaches a parallel part, the light guide connecting rod 12 fully enters up to the inmost part of the through hole 42 of the light guide adapter 43, and is put in a condition of being lightly clicked and fixed by a C ring 45.
