[Title <strong>of</strong> the Invention]<br />
Connector and circuit board that includes the connector<br />
[Claims]<br />
1. Cartridge type circuit board connector characterized by a flexible flanges (23), which<br />
protrude from the conductive part (12) <strong>of</strong> the connector, which in turn is made <strong>of</strong> conductive<br />
rubber. (See Figure 1)<br />
2. Cartridge type circuit board characterized by one end <strong>of</strong> flange part (12) indicated in Claim<br />
1 in contact with the shoulder <strong>of</strong> the insulating casing (25), the other end <strong>of</strong> the end <strong>of</strong> the<br />
flange (23) pressed against the circuit board (22) which deploys MOS type IC (21). (See<br />
Figure 2)<br />
[Excerpt from Detail Description <strong>of</strong> the Invention and Drawings]<br />
This invention concerns the connector, which is used in coupling the IC circuit board (22).<br />
When inserted as an expansion cartridge, the connector (24) and said circuit board (22) make<br />
an electric connection.<br />
The existing system <strong>of</strong> cartridge type circuit board, internal circuit board (22) and<br />
connector (22) are already connected so that if static electricity laden human body part and<br />
other objects makes a contact with the connector part protruding from the insulated casing, the<br />
MOS type IC could have been damaged.<br />

[Explanation]<br />
The specified invention (Claim 1) and related invention (Claim 2) were in technical fields <strong>of</strong><br />
“connector” and “cartridge type circuit board,” respectively. Because the connector is to be<br />
used in the technical area <strong>of</strong> cartridge type circuit board in the claim, the two invention fields<br />
have technically direct relationship, and their industrial fields <strong>of</strong> application <strong>of</strong> both inventions<br />
are the same.<br />
The connector that is the new matter corresponding to the problem to be solved <strong>of</strong> the<br />
specified invention is substantial part <strong>of</strong> matters in the claim <strong>of</strong> the related invention. There<strong>for</strong>e<br />
the substantial parts <strong>of</strong> matters in the claims <strong>of</strong> the inventions are the same.<br />
