A shielded electrical connector (,) comprises an insulative housing (,) having a mating portion (,) defining passageways (,) therein, a plurality of terminals (,) received in corresponding passageways, and a shield (,) enclosing the housing. A rectangular receiving opening (,) is defined in a front surface (,) of the shield for exposing the mating portion of the housing to a complementary plug connector. The rectangular receiving opening is defined by a pair of opposite lateral edges (,) and a pair of longitudinal edges (,). A pair of spring fingers (,) respectively extends rearward from the lateral edges in a staggered manner. A sum of lengths of the spring fingers is substantially larger than the length of each longitudinal edge whereby the complementary plug connector is reliably retained in a mated position.

Shielded electrical connector

An EMI shield is used for shielding electronic components on a printed circuit board of a mobile phone. The shield comprises a cover and a pair of grounding strips, all being made by conductive material. The pair of grounding strips is soldered on the printed circuit board. A plurality of latches is formed on each grounding strip. The cover, which is substantially in the shape of an inverted U, comprises a shielding plate and a pair of rims depending downward from opposite sides of the shielding plate. A plurality of openings defined in the rims engages with respective latches of the grounding strips to secure the cover to the printed circuit board.

Shield for electronic components on a circuit board

An electrical connector of the present invention comprises an insulative housing, a plurality of contacts and a shield. The housing comprises a body portion rectangular in shape and having a receiving cavity in a rear side thereof. A protruding portion extends forward from a front wall of the body portion defining contact holding slots therein. The protruding portion has a front portion forming latching shelves extending rearward into the contact holding slots. Each contact includes a base section, with a horizontal section and a solder tail extending respectively from a front end and a rear end of the base section, and a spring contact section extending upward and rearward from a front end of the horizontal section. The horizontal section is provided at the front thereof with a notch for locking to the latching shelf of the protruding portion so that the contacts are fixed in the housing firmly. Upon full insertion of a mating plug in the connector, the horizontal section is prevented from being displaced from the contact holding slots by the notch being interlocked with the latching shelf.

Connector with securely retained contacts

A stacked electrical connector comprises triple stacked dielectric housings with a similar structure, a bottom, a middle and a top conductive terminal groups and two sets of transition contacts engaging with the middle and the top terminal groups, a one-piece grounding contact having three contacting arms inserting into the three stacked housings, a spacer and a conductive shield enclosing the stacked housings and the two sets of the transition contacts. The middle and the top terminal groups have a same structure, thereby simplifying the manufacture of the stacked electrical connector. An upper and a lower retaining blocks are prepared for fastening to the middle and the top housings. The spacer forms a pair of latching posts engaging with the lower retaining block for fixing the stacked housings against the spacer and defines a plurality of grooves to position the two sets of transition contacts.

Stacked electrical connector assembly

A flexible board connector comprises a dielectric housing, a plurality of terminals, and a pressure member. The housing has an elongate base, a pair of side walls upwardly depending from the base, each side wall defining an upwardly facing opening and a retaining stop, and a plurality of receiving passageways for receiving the plurality of terminals. The pressure member includes a cylindrical spindle and a pressure body which defines a central longitudinal cavity corresponding in size to the spindle. A retention ridge outwardly extends from the pressure body along the length of the pressure body. In assembly, the spindle is received in the cavity of the pressure body and both ends of the spindle are press-fitted into the openings of the housing. The retention ridge is moved to rotate the pressure body from an open position where a flexible circuit board can be inserted into the flexible board connector to a closed position where the flexible circuit board is pressed against the terminals of the flexible board connector by the pressure body. The pressure member is adapted for easy assembly and minimizes the dimensions of the flexible board connector.

Compact flexible board connector

An electrical connector comprises a dielectric housing, a plurality of contacts retained within the housing, a spacer mounted to the housing for properly separating and positioning the contacts, and a metallic shell enclosing the housing and the spacer therein. Each contact comprises a curved contact section, an elongate planar engaging section and a connecting tail. The housing comprises a base and a mating board outwardly extending from the base. The base defines a cavity in a rear surface thereof, a plurality of vertically aligned apertures in communication with the cavity for insertion of the contacts therethrough, and a plurality of vertically aligned slits in a side wall in communication with the corresponding apertures for engaging with the engaging sections of the corresponding contacts. A plurality of engaging slots are defied in the mating board in communication with the corresponding apertures of the base for receiving the contact sections of the contacts therein.

Electrical connector

A method for manufacturing an electrical connector having at least two rows of high density contacts, comprises steps of stamping and forming, depositing, insert molding, severing, and assembling. Each contact carrier strip has a number of contacts, a first carrier and a second carrier forming positioning structures thereon. Each contact includes a soldering section, a connecting section, a securing section and a contacting section jointed together end to end. The connecting sections of the contacts of different contact carrier strips are perpendicular to both the soldering sections and the securing sections. The contact carrier strips are deposited in a mold. A contact base is insert molded around the contacts for enclosing appropriate sections of the contacts thereby forming a contact module after properly depositing the contact carrier strips in the mold. The soldering sections of the contacts of different contact carrier strips are alternately aligned and remain in the same plane. The connecting sections of the contacts of different contact carrier strips separate the securing sections from the contacting sections due to different lengths thereof. The first and second carriers are cut away from the contact carrier strips to form a contact module which is assembled to other components.
