Disclosed is an improved shielded electric connector comprising a connector body having contact pieces embedded therein and an “L”-shaped shield plate applied to the connector body with its horizontal and vertical sections lying on the top surface and rear side of the connector body, the shield plate having press-fit portions integrally connected to the lower end of the vertical section. The shield plate has thrust shoulders formed at its horizontal-to-vertical transition to push the press-fit portions. The electric connector can be fixed to a printed circuit board by applying a push to the thrust shoulders of the shield plate, thereby pushing the press-fit portions of the shield plate right in the through holes in exact linear-alignment with the through holes. Thus, the strong thrust can be transmitted to each press-fit portion without any possibility of causing it to be deformed or bent.
An electric connector comprising a connector body having contact pieces embedded therein and an “L”-shaped shield plate applied to the connector body with its horizontal and vertical sections lying on the top surface and rear side of the connector body respectively, the shield plate having press-fit portions formed at the lower end of the vertical section, wherein the shield plate has a plurality of thrust shoulders formed at its horizontal-to-vertical transition to push the press-fit portions.
