Omron’s Rotary Backlock Mechanism
Improvement 2
Four-sided FPC 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.
Improvement 1
Rotary slider independent of the FPC socket
Slider does not disconnect if the FPC is lifted.
High reliability--A mounted FPC will not come off if
excess force is applied to it.

Note: Except the XF2C and 61-pin XF2B-61.
Improvement 4
Delivered with the rotary slider open.
Reduces the labor required to mount FPCs.
Assembly speed is improved over the conventional
rotary locking type because the rotary slider does not
need to be released.
No need to discriminate between the upper
and lower FPC contacts.
Connectors are the same, so it's not necessary to
distinguish between the upper and lower contacts
when connecting upper and lower PCBs.
