ABSTRACT:
The present invention discloses a static electricity conductive mechanism including a plurality of conductive bumps and conductive members, for conducting static electricity generated by a connector device to a base thereof, the connector device having a connector body disposed on a circuit board, and the base being ground to earth. The conductive bumps of the static electricity conductive mechanism are each disposed on the base. The conductive members are disposed between the connector body and the conductive bumps. The conductive members conduct to the conductive bumps the static electricity generated by the connector body, thus conducting to earth the static electricity generated by the connector body. The prior art involves disposing a resilient element between a connector's body and base and thereby results in poor contact and poor conduction of static electricity between the body and the base. The drawback is solved by the present invention.
