Abstract
A pluggable self locking connector includes a socket having a socket case and a plug having a plug shell and a snap fit portion coupled thereto. The socket case is formed with a depression on the inner wall. The outer wall of the snap fit portion is formed with a deformable resilient rib and a bump. The plug shell is formed with an opening for receiving the resilient rib and a resilient latch corresponding to the bump. The front end of the plug shell has a resilient positioning member. When the socket and plug mate, the resilient rib slides into the depression. When the socket and the plug separate, the resilient rib is confined within the depression and the resilient latch and the bump are engaged. The front end of the snap fit portion presses the resilient positioning member and the resilient positioning member is partially exposed.
