Abstract
An electrical connector comprises an insulating housing comprising a mating face and two side faces and defining a receiving chamber extending through the mating face along a mating direction thereof; a first contact disposed in the housing; a second contact received in the housing and comprising an engaging portion protruding into the receiving chamber; and a shield covering the housing and formed with at least a pair of soldering arms located outside the one of the side faces of the housing and spaced from each other along the mating direction, the soldering portion of the first contact located between the two soldering arms of the shield outside the one of the side faces of the housing.
Claims12
An electrical connector comprising:
- an insulating housing comprising a mating face and a pair of side faces and defining a receiving chamber extending through the mating face along a mating direction thereof;
- a first contact disposed in the housing and comprising a contacting portion exposed into the receiving chamber and a soldering portion located outside one of the side faces of the housing;
- a second contact received in the housing and comprising an engaging portion protruding into the receiving chamber and located apart from the contacting portion of the first contact;
- and
- a shield covering the housing and formed with a pair of soldering arms located outside the one of the side faces of the housing and spaced from each other along the mating direction, the soldering portion of the first contact located between the two soldering arms of the shield outside the one of the side faces of the housing.
An electrical connector comprising:
- an insulative housing defining a circular mating port extending along a mating direction and located between opposite first and second side walls in a transverse direction perpendicular to said mating direction;
- a conductive contact disposed in the housing with a contact portion extending into the mating port and a tail portion laterally extending from the mating port with a mounting portion around the first side wall for mounting to a printed circuit board;
- and
- a metallic shell including at least a first plate covering the first side wall and including a pair of mounting legs for mounting to the printed circuit board;
- wherein
- said pair of mounting legs are located by two sides of said mounting portion along said mating direction.
An electrical connector comprising:
- an insulative housing defining a mating port extending along a mating direction and located between opposite first and second side walls in a transverse direction perpendicular to said mating direction;
- a conductive contact disposed in the housing with a contact portion extending around the mating port and a tail portion laterally extending away from the mating port with a mounting portion around the first side wall for mounting to a printed circuit board;
- and
- a metallic shell including at least a first plate intimately covering the first side wall and including a pair of mounting legs for mounting to the printed circuit board;
- wherein
- said pair of mounting legs are located by two sides of said mounting portion along said mating direction.
