† Who made this connector? (with photos)

Hi all,

I need to find the source for these zero insertion force connectors.

They're 2mm pitch locking connectors for stripped ribbon cable.

Photos here: http://207.234.249.73/mwd/cu175_connector.jpg

I need to know who made them, and if you can ID the series, that would
be sweet, too.

Thanks!

The part has a logo on it that looks like a capital "D" with a
horizontal line through it and extending slightly out of the left side
of the "D".

Here are some connectors i found that may be close to what you have /
are looking for:

My wild guess is that a "flex" circuit (ie: Kapton ribbon) cable is
involved, and there are a number of PCB connectors made for ZIF connections.
I have seen one or two and they seem to have a slideable "cuff" that
clamps in one position and allows easy entry/exit in the other position.
Anyway, i do not know the technical term(s) for these but think i
have found something that might do (or get you close).
