Abstract:
An electrical connector includes an insulative housing, and a number of conductive contacts. The conductive contacts include a first contact and a second contact. The first contact includes a first retaining portion, a first contacting portion extending from the first retaining portion, and a first termination portion extending from the first retaining portion. The second contact includes two second retaining portions, two second contacting portions extending from respective second retaining portions, and a second termination portion extending from the second retaining portions. The structure of the first contacting portion of the first contact is identical to that of one of the two second contacting portions of the second contact, and the structure of the first retaining potion of the first contact is identical to that of one of the two second retaining portions of the second contact.
Abstract:
A receptacle connector includes an insulative housing, a number of conductive contacts, and a retainer seat. The insulative housing includes a mating face for mating with a plug connector and a mounting face opposite to the mating face. The insulative housing defines a number of contact-receiving passages penetrating from the mating face to the mounting face and a mounting recess recessed from the mounting face toward the mating face a certain distance. The conductive contacts are respectively received in the contact-receiving passages. Each conductive contact includes a contacting portion for electrically contacting the plug connector, a termination portion for electrically connecting with a Printed Circuit Board, and an intermediate portion connecting the contacting portion with the termination portion. The retainer seat is fixedly received in the mounting recess of the insulative housing.
Abstract:
A power connector in accordance with the present invention includes an insulative housing including a main body and at least two mating ports, a number of power contacts received in the insulative housing. At least one mating port includes an anti-mismating portion protruding outwardly from an outer surface thereof and extending along a mating direction of the power connector.
Abstract:
A cable connector in accordance with the present invention includes an insulative housing and a number of conductive contacts received in the insulative housing. The insulative housing includes a main portion and a mating portion extending forwardly from the main portion. The insulative housing has a number of H-shaped cross sectional H-shaped cross sectional leading recesses defined in the main portion. The conductive contacts are divided into a first group of contacts and a second group of contacts alternatively arranged with each other. Each of the first group of contacts includes a first cable termination portion, while each of the second group of contacts includes a second cable termination portion. The first cable termination portion forms a first restriction section, and the second cable termination portion forms a second restriction section. The first and the second restriction portions extend toward each other and are received in the corresponding H-shaped cross sectional H-shaped cross sectional leading recesses.
Abstract:
An electrical connector includes a housing, a number of contacts received in the housing and a spacer for holding the contacts. The housing includes a mating portion and a pair of extensions extending from the mating portion. The pair of extensions and the mating portion jointly form a receiving space to receive the spacer. The spacer includes a horizontal portion and a vertical portion perpendicular to the horizontal portion. The horizontal portion defines a slot through which the contacts extend. The vertical portion includes an inner wall, an outer wall and a channel extending through the inner wall and the outer wall. The outer wall defines a recess opening in communication with the channel. When the contacts are associated with the spacer, the contacts are partly exposed to the recess opening via the channel for robust heat dissipation.
Abstract:
An electrical connector includes a housing member, a first contact group, a second contact group, a metallic shell and a grounding member. The housing member includes a first tongue plate and a second tongue plate to which the first contact group and the second contact group are respectively associated. The first contact group and the second contact group are compatible to USB 3.0 standard. The grounding member comprises a body portion located between the second mounting portions of the first contact group and the third mounting portions of the second contact group. The grounding member is electrically and mechanically connected to the metallic shell for cross-talk prevention.
Abstract:
A power contact includes a fixing portion, an engaging arm extending backwardly from a front end of the fixing portion along a first direction and a support member extending towards the engaging arm. The support member is positioned between the engaging arm and the fixing portion along a second direction perpendicular to the first direction. The support member is adapted for abutting against the engaging arm so as to increase insertion/withdraw force and avoid over deformation of the engaging arm.
Abstract:
A connector assembly includes a receptacle connector and a plug connector. The receptacle connector includes a receptacle insulative housing including a receiving portion, a number of mating portions extending from the receiving portion and a number of contact-receiving slots extending through the mating portions and the receiving portion. At least one of the mating portions includes an anti-mismating block at a corner thereof. The plug connector includes a plug insulative housing including a mating surface and a number of cavities extending through the mating surface for receiving the mating portions. The plug insulative housing includes an anti-mismating groove at a corner of one of the cavities to receive the anti-mismating block of the receptacle insulative housing.
Abstract:
An electrical connector includes an insulative housing, a number of contacts retained in the insulative housing and a pair of latch members located at lateral sides of the insulative housing. The insulative housing includes a mating portion, a mounting portion and a number of passageways extending therethrough to receive the contacts. Each latch member includes a pivot portion connected to corresponding lateral side of the insulative housing, a locking arm extending forwardly from the pivot portion and a driving portion extending backwardly from the pivot portion. The locking arms are capable of pivoting outwardly along a horizontal direction to a release status under condition that the driving portions are inwardly pressed. With the dual latch members, the electrical connector can be much reliable in locking with a mateable connector.
Abstract:
An electrical connector includes an insulating housing, a number of power contacts received in the insulating housing, a power bus bar electrically and mechanically connecting with at least one power contact and a power contact spacer assembled within said opening of the insulating housing. Each power contact forms a first engaging portion and a first contacting portion. The power bus bar has a main section, a middle section extending from the main section, and a connecting section extending from the middle section. The power contact spacer includes a main body and a base extending downwards from the main body. The main body provides a number of protrusions along the transversal direction, and the insulating housing defines a number of grooves on a top wall thereof for correspondingly receiving the protrusions to thereby secure the power contact spacer on the insulating housing along a transversal direction.
