Abstract:
An electrical receptacle connector includes an insulated housing, flexible terminals, and flat terminals. The insulated housing includes a base portion and a tongue portion. The flexible terminals and the flat terminals are held in the base portion and disposed at an upper surface of the tongue portion. The flat terminals are arranged in front of the flexible terminals and include two pairs of signal terminals and a ground terminal between the signal terminals. Each flat terminal includes a flat contact portion, a tail portion, and a body portion between the flat contact portion and the tail portion. The body portion of the ground terminal includes two first widening portions extended outward from two sides thereof. A first distance is defined between each first widening portion and the body portion of the corresponding nearest signal terminal. A second distance is defined between the two signal terminals for each pair thereof.
Abstract:
An electrical connector structure includes a housing and signal modules mounted therein. Each signal module includes an insulating body, conductive terminals and a ground shield. The insulating body has a first side having a guide projection, and a second side opposite to the first side and having a guide groove. When a first signal module has been mounted in the housing, a second signal module is guided and moved to mount into the housing by the guide groove of the second signal module receiving the guide projection of the first signal module, or by the guide projection of the second signal module sliding into the guide groove of the first signal module, whereby reducing relative movement between signal modules in the housing. The signal modules may be mounted one by one in the housing, or may be stacked side by side and then mounted in the housing as a whole.
