An audio jack includes an insulative housing () including a tapered, inclined rear end () having four sides wherein two horizontal sides are wider than the other two vertical sides, all four sides being inclined and coupled together; first, second, third, and fourth terminals (, and) disposed in respective grooves (, and) and each having an outer terminal (, or) inclined and projected from the rear end (); a plate () in the housing () served as a plug stopper; and a metal shell () enclosing the housing () and including inclined legs. The housing () further comprises two internal cavities () positioning two of the first, second, third, and fourth terminals (, and) respectively. The third and fourth terminals (and) are served as a switch upon insertion and removal of a plug ().

Audio jack with inclined coupling end face

An audio jack includes a rectangular housing including a body including a rear first compartment and a hole extended from a front face to the first compartment, and an insulate plate secured to a top of the body; a plurality of contacts provided in the housing and including first, second, third, fourth, and fifth contacts each including a flexible portion and an upright solder portion; a light emitting element provided in the first compartment and aligned with the hole and including legs inserted through the first compartment; and a shell secured onto the housing. Inserting a first plug into the hole until the contact assembly is electrically connected with the plug will effect an analog signal transmission. Inserting a second plug into the hole until its head is electrically connected with the light emitting element will effect a digital signal transmission. The plate together with the shell can provide a double shield.

Audio jack

A vertical type audio jack connector comprises an insulative housing, a plurality of terminals, an LED and a shielding case. The insulative housing has a rectangular portion and a mating portion, the mating portion has an insertion hole, on the left, right and top of the circular surface of the mating portion each has a notch which communicates with the insertion hole respectively; the rectangular portion has a plurality of grooves and slide slots for disposing the terminals, in the interior of the insulative housing having a first, a second and a third chamber which is communicated with the insertion hole respectively, the first chamber and the third chamber are separated by a partition board which has a tapered opening; the LED is disposed firmly within the third chamber. When the optical fiber plug is plugged in, the forehead of the optical fiber plug contacts with the LED through the tapered opening of the partition board to achieve signal connection, and when the audio plug is plugged in, it achieves signal connection through terminal conduction.

Vertical type audio jack connector

Provided is an improved audio receptacle connector such as one mounted in a mobile communication product. The audio receptacle connector improves the conventional SMT terminals as compression type terminals in order to achieve a perfect connection to a PCB. A mobile communication product can have improved communication quality by incorporating the audio receptacle connector thereinto.
