Electric connector

An electric connector comprising:

• an insulative housing having
• a front;
• a rear;
• a bottom;
• a plurality of mounting holes defined through the insulative housing from the front to the rear;
• and
• a plurality of mounting slots defined in the bottom, corresponding respectively to and communicating respectively with the mounting holes and being perpendicularly to the mounting holes;
• a plurality of probe contacts corresponding respectively and mounted respectively in the mounting holes, corresponding respectively to the mounting holes and each probe contacts having
• a tubular body made of metal, mounted securely in a corresponding mounting hole and having
• a closed end;
• an open end;
• and
• a chamber defined in the tubular body and communicating with the open end;
• a probe made of metal, mounted slidably in the chamber and extending out of the open end of the tubular body;
• and
• a spring mounted in the chamber and biasing the probe out of the open end of the tubular body;
• and
• a plurality of terminals corresponding respectively to and mounted respectively in the mounting slots in the insulative housing, corresponding respectively and respectively holding the probe contacts and each terminal having
• a body portion having two opposite sides;
• a fastening portion formed on and protruding perpendicularly from the body portion, mounted in a corresponding mounting slot of the insulative housing, being perpendicularly to and transversely holding the tubular body of a corresponding probe contact in the insulative housing and having
• a distal end;
• two prongs extending in the corresponding mounting slot;
• and
• a notch defined in the distal end between the prongs, transversely clamping the tubular body and having an inner bottom surface;
• and
• a soldering portion formed on and protruding from the body portion opposite to the fastening portion.
