Features of Rotary Backlock Mechanism
Feature 1
Rotary latch is independent of the FPC socket
The Rotary latch will not release if the FPC
is lifted.
High reliability – A mounted FPC will not detach even
if excess force is applied to it.
Feature 2
Four-sided housing
Construction prevents FPC displacement.
Mounting reliability is enhanced because the FPC is held in a
four-sided housing and is unaffected by the slider operation.

Feature 4
Delivered with the rotary latch open.
Less work required for FPC Mounting.
Compared with traditional rotary lock connectors, production
efficiency is greatly improved because there is no need to take
the additional step of opening the latch.
There is no need to distinguish between
the upper and lower FPC connection.
The contacts make contact from both sides, so there is no need to
distinguish between upper and lower contacts when connecting
PCBs.
