Abstract
An electrical connector includes an insulating housing and a shield case for enclosing the insulating housing. The insulating housing includes a base section of which two opposite side surfaces respectively define a groove and a recess. The groove penetrates a front edge of the corresponding side surface and slants outward gradually from a front edge to a rear edge. The recess is located in rear of the groove, with a small space from the rear edge of the groove. The shield case includes two opposite side walls attached to the corresponding side surfaces of the base section, a cut portion formed in two substantially corresponding portions of both of the side walls, an elastic locking piece extending frontward and inclining inward from a rear edge of the cut portion. When the electrical connector is assembled, a free end of the elastic locking piece slides along the corresponding groove and is gradually compressed outward and finally secured into the corresponding recess by means of release thereof.
