Photoelectric composite connector
First Claim
1. A photoelectric composite connector comprising:
- a first fitting member including;
a first holding member holding at least one first optical fiber,at least one first electric connecting portion, anda first insulator member formed around the first holding member;
a second fitting member including;
a second holding member holding at least one second optical fiber,at least one second electric connecting portion, anda second insulator member formed around the second holding member, anda protecting section to prevent foreign materials generated during fitting of the first and second fitting members from entering into at least the first and second holding members, the protecting section comprising;
a partition wall formed around the second holding member so as to separate the second holding member and the second insulator member, the partition wall projecting further in the longitudinal direction than the second holding member and the second insulator member;
wherein the first and second fitting members fit together such that the first and second optical fibers are optically connected and the first and second electric connecting portions are electrically connected.

Abstract
A photoelectric composite connector includes a first fitting member including a first holding member holding at least one first optical fiber, and at least one first electric connecting portion, and a second fitting member including a second holding member holding at least one second optical fiber, and at least one second electric connecting portion. The first and second fitting members are constituted as to fit into and onto each other so that the first and second optical fibers are optically connected and the first and second electric connecting portions are electrically connected. The first and second fitting members includes a protecting section to prevent foreign materials generated during fitting of the first and second fitting members from entering into at least the first and second holding members.
