A primary connector () includes a primary housing () and a number of terminal groups. The primary housing includes a periphery wall () and a side wall () disposed at opposite sides of the primary housing and extending along a longitudinal direction, a slot () defined between the periphery wall and the side wall, and a number of passageways () extending along a transverse direction for receiving the number of terminal groups. Each terminal group includes a predetermined terminal () having a contact section () exposed to the slot and a pair of soldering portions () respectively extending from opposite sides of the contact section and inserted outwardly from the periphery wall and the side wall.

Board to board connector assembly having improved terminal arrangement

An electrical connector assembly includes a female connector () and a male connector () mating with each other. Each of the female connector and the male connector includes a housing () and a number of terminals () secured in the housing. The housing has a number of channels and a number of standoffs () arranged alternately along a lengthwise direction, and a number of indentations () each defined beside a corresponding standoff. Two adjacent standoffs are staggered. Each terminal has a contacting section. The contacting sections of the terminals of the female connector contact with those of the terminals of the male connector. The standoffs of the male connector engage with the indentations of the female connector.

Electrical connector assembly for blind mating for board to board use

An electrical connector includes an insulative housing defining a mating slot, a number of contacts and a pair of metal hold downs fastened in the insulative housing. Each contact includes a contacting portion extending into the mating slot. Each metal hold down includes a first portion, a second portion perpendicular to the first portion and a connecting portion connecting the first portion and the second portion. The first portion defines a first hole, the second portion defines a second hole for maintaining solders, and the connecting portion defines a third hole connecting the first hole and the second hole. The first portion and the connecting portion are insert molded in the insulative housing with material of the insulative housing filling in the first and the third holes.

Board to board connector with enhanced metal locking features

A connector assembly () includes a first connector () having a first insulative housing (), a plurality of first terminals () supported by the first insulative housing and at least one latching member () combined with the first insulative housing, the latching member () having two locking arms () spaced apart from each other along a longitudinal direction; a second connector () having a second insulative housing (), a plurality of second terminals () supported by the second insulative housing and at least one clasping member () combined with the second insulative housing, the clasping member () having a rigid longitudinal bar () with two free ends protruding at opposite directions; and wherein the rigid longitudinal bar is sandwiched between the two locking arms and the two free ends engaged with the two locking arms when the first connector mates with the second connector.

Connector assembly with robust latching means

An electrical connector for an FPC includes an insulative housing () defining a space () and a pair of engage surfaces () at opposite sides of the space; a plurality of terminals () side-by-side arranged in the housing and each comprising a supporting arm with a curved portion () thereof; and an actuator () rotatable assembled in the space of the housing defining shafts () being received in the curved portions and a pair of end posts () respectively extending from two longitudinal ends thereof, each end post defines a project portion (); the project portions are engage with the engage surfaces to stop the actuator from moving off while the actuator is rotated relative to the housing.
