Each pair of first elastic terminals has a pair of front ends adapted to be brought into elastic and electrical contact with a pair of first wires inserted into the first connector. The second connector has a second housing and a pair of second conductive terminals disposed in the second housing each having a rear end adapted to be brought into elastic and electrical contact with a second wire inserted into the second connector. The pair of first elastic terminals each have a rear end adapted to clamp a front end of one of the second conductive terminals.

Connector assembly

A conductive terminal electrically connects a conductor of a conductive wire to a circuit board. The conductive terminal includes a body, a clamping portion having a pair of clamping arms, and a solder portion having a pair of solder lugs. The body has an opening through which the conductive wire is inserted and a passage communicating with the opening, the passage receiving the conductive wire and extending perpendicular to a surface of the circuit board. The pair of clamping arms extend from the opening towards the circuit board and obliquely towards each other so as to clamp the conductor of the conductive wire inserted through the opening. The solder portion has a pair of solder lugs extending perpendicular to a lengthwise direction of the passage and soldered to a pair of solder pads on the circuit board.

An electrical connector comprises a housing having a receiving passage and a conductive terminal inserted and removably mounted in the receiving passage in an insertion direction. The conductive terminal includes a body portion having a first end and a second end opposite to the first end, a clamping portion disposed at the first end of the body portion and configured to clamp a wire of a cable, and a spring locking portion disposed on the body portion and obliquely extending from the body portion in a direction away from the body portion toward the second end. The locking portion is configured to engage a bottom wall of the receiving passage. The engagement of the locking portion with the bottom wall of the receiving passage is released by driving the locking portion with an external tool inserted in the insertion direction.

Conductive terminal and electrical connector

A connector housing comprises a body, an outside surface of the body having a pair of opposite mounting surfaces, a first contact surface, and a second contact surface, and a mounting portion disposed on each of the mounting surfaces. The mounting surfaces, the first contact surface and the second contact surface are perpendicular to each other. A distance between the mounting portion and the first contact surface is equal to a distance between the mounting portion and the second contact surface. The connector housing is interchangeably mounted with the first contact surface on a circuit board or with the second contact surface on the circuit board by a same mounting mechanism engaging the mounting portion.

A conductive terminal includes a support frame defining a receiving space, a pair of first clamping arms arranged in the receiving space, and a pair of second clamping arms arranged in the receiving space. A pair of first clamping portions are disposed at a pair of ends of the first clamping arms. The first clamping portions are adapted to clamp a conductor of a wire inserted in a first insertion direction and electrically connect the wire with the conductive terminal. A pair of second clamping portions are disposed at a pair of ends of the second clamping arms. The second clamping portions are adapted to clamp the conductor of the wire inserted in a second insertion direction different from the first insertion direction and electrically connect the wire with the conductive terminal.

Conductive terminal and connector assembly

A connector comprises a connector module including an insulation body in which a chamber and a wire hole are formed, a contact received in the chamber, and an elastic clip disposed in the chamber. The elastic clip is adapted to press a conductor of a wire inserted into the chamber through the wire hole against the contact. The conductor of the wire electrically contacts the contact.

Connector

A conductive terminal is adapted to electrically connect a wire to a circuit board. The circuit board has a through hole and solder pads on a surface of the circuit board. The conductive terminal comprises a base, a pair of mounting portions, and a pair of clamping portions. The base has a pair of opposing first edges, a pair of opposing second edges, and an insertion hole aligned with the through hole of the circuit board. The mounting portions include a pair of solder portions extending outwardly from the first edges and parallel to the base. The solder portions are each adapted to be soldered to one of the solder pads of the circuit board. The clamping portions extend obliquely toward each other from the two second edges of the base and are adapted to clamp a conductor of the wire inserted through the insertion hole and the through hole.

An housing of an electrical connector has at least one accommodation passage passing therethrough. At least one wire is inserted into at least one connection terminal accommodated within the accommodation passage in an insertion direction. The housing has a first surface with a first engagement portion and a second surface, opposite to the first surface, with a second engagement portion matched with the first engagement portion. The first engagement portion or the second engagement portion of the housing is configured to be detachably engaged with a second engagement portion or a first engagement portion of another housing, so as to stack the housing and the another housing together. Thus, it is possible to reduce the space occupied by a plurality of electrical connectors, thereby facilitating management of the wires and the electrical connectors.
