A cable end connector and the method of making the same are disclosed. The connector includes a first contact module, a second contact module, a central grounding unit, a grounding means, and a shielding shell electrically connecting with the grounding means. The first contact module includes first contacts and a first insulator retaining the first contacts. The first insulator has a first tongue section and a first assembling section. The second contact module includes second contacts and a second insulator retaining the second contacts. The second insulator has a second tongue section and a second assembling section. The shielding shell has a front shell and a rear shell partially overlapped on the front shell. The front shell substantially encloses the first and the second tongue sections of the first and the second contact modules, the central grounding unit and the grounding means. The rear shell covers the first and the second assembling sections of the first and the second contact modules.

Cable end connector with a plurality of contact modules, shielding shells and grounding means

An electrical connector includes an insulative housing and two contact modules. The insulative housing has a bottom mounting portion having a cavity opening downwardly and a mating portion, the mating portion has a central mating space and a pair of side walls on both sides of the mating space, and a plurality of contact receiving passageways defined on each side wall. Each contact module has an insulator received in the cavity and a plurality of contacts insert-molded in the insulator, each contact defines a contacting arm and a soldering portion. The insulative housing defines a pair of locating portions extending downwards from two sides of the mounting portion, the distance between the pair of locating portions is smaller than an internal diameter of the cavity, a pair of demising slots are formed on an interior side of each locating portion for the contact modules passing through.

Electrical connector

A Universal Serial Bus connector includes a first contact module, a second contact module, a shielding shell enclosing the contact modules, and a grounding member. The contact modules each have a number of contacts and an insulator retaining the contacts. Each contact has a fastening portion assembled in the insulator, a contacting portion extending from the fastening portion, and a tail portion extending from the fastening portion opposite to the contacting portion. The contacts include grounding contacts. The shielding shell provides a front mating face. The grounding member connects with the grounding contacts and extends in different plane compared to the grounding contacts. The grounding member defines a front contact tab and the grounding contact defines a front edge end. The front contact tab is closer to the front mating face of the shielding shell than the front edge ends of the grounding contacts.

USB connector having an improved grounding

A connector for electrically connecting with a complementary connector, includes an insulating housing, a number of conductive contacts, and a shielding shell. The insulating housing includes a base, a mating tongue extending forwards from the base, and a number of channels extending through the mating tongue and the base. The conductive contacts are retained in the channels, with each conductive contact having a fixing portion assembled within corresponding channel, a contacting portion extending from one side of the fixing portion and a soldering portion extending from the other side of the fixing portion opposite to the contacting portion. The shielding shell covers the insulating housing and the number of conductive contacts. One of the contacts is employed for grounding purpose.

Electrical connector with grounding contact

A USB cable end connector and the method of making the same are disclosed. The cable end connector includes a first contact module, a second contact module, a central grounding unit sandwiched between the two contact modules, a shielding shell enclosing the first and the second contact modules; and a grounding means attached to the first and the second contact modules along a height direction of the connector. The grounding means includes an upper grounding pad and a lower grounding pad. The upper grounding pad and the lower grounding pad are assembled to a first and a second insulators of the contact modules along a height direction, respectively. The upper grounding pad is sandwiched between the first contact module and the shielding shell. The lower grounding pad is sandwiched between the second contact module and the shielding shell.

Cable end connector and method making the same

A connector includes a first contact module, a second contact module, a shielding shell and a latching member. The contact modules each include a number of contacts and an insulator retaining the contacts. The contact has a fastening portion assembled in the insulator, a contacting portion extending from the fastening portion, and a terminal portion extending from the fastening portion opposite to the contacting portion. The shielding shell covers around the first and the second contact modules. The latching member assists to secure the connection between the electrical connector with a complementary connector. The first contacts and the second contacts each have a pair of grounding terminals and the latching member connects with the pair of grounding terminals.

Electrical connector with grounding terminal

An electrical connector includes an insulative housing and a number of electrical contacts. The insulative housing has a top wall, a bottom wall and a number of side walls. The side walls form a number of passageways extending through the insulative housing. The electrical contacts are received in the passageways and each includes a contacting portion, a tail portion and a main portion connecting with the contacting portion and the tail portion. The main portion is provided with a first fastening means for engaging with the side wall and a second fastening means for engaging with the top wall so as to secure the electrical contacts to the insulative housing.

Electrical connector with improved electrical contacts

An electrical connector includes an insulative housing and a number of conductive contacts received in the insulative housing. Each conductive contact is substantially located in a main surface and includes a contacting portion extending beyond the front wall of the insulative housing, an intermediate portion extending rearward from the contacting portion and received in the insulative housing, and a termination portion bending vertically from the intermediate portion. The intermediate portion is torn to form at least an interfering means which extending away from the main surface to interferentially engage with the insulative housing for retaining the conductive contact in the insulative housing reliably.

Electrical connector with improved contact structure

A power connector mountable on a circuit board, includes an insulating housing, a conductive pin and a pair of spring contacts received in the insulating housing. The insulating housing defines a central channel extending therethrough along a lengthwise direction thereof, and a passageway positioned besides and communicating with the central channel. The insulating housing has a pair of heat dissipation cavities extending through the insulating housing along a longitudinal direction of the insulating housing.
