Abstract
An electrical socket includes a socket body, a central terminal pin, and a curved spring terminal piece. The socket body includes a bottom surface with a dovetail groove, which has a rear end retaining portion that is adapted to receive an engaging end portion of a hollow plug fittingly therein, and a protrusion adapted to engage an annular groove in the plug. The central terminal pin is adapted to be inserted into the plug for electrical connection therewith. The spring terminal piece has a movable portion that is adapted to engage the groove in the plug so as to press the plug against the protrusion such that the plug is clamped between the protrusion and the terminal pin, thereby forming electrical connection with the plug when the plug is inserted into the socket body.
