Abstract
An electrical connector for receiving an electrical module. The electrical module has a convex on a lateral surface. The electrical connector comprises an insulated housing, a plurality of terminals and a metallic shell. The insulated housing has at least a stop wall on an edge and has an indentation corresponding to the convex. The terminals are set in the insulated housing separately. The metallic shell completely surrounds both the insulated housing and the electrical module to avoid operations of the electrical module from being affected by exterior electromagnetic waves.
Claims11
An electrical connector for receiving an electrical module, said electrical connector being deposed on a circuit board, said electrical module having at least one convex on a lateral surface, said electrical connector comprising:
- an insulated housing, said insulated housing having at least a stop wall, being extended from said insulated housing, defining a receiving area on the insulated housing;
- and
- a plurality of slots;
- a plurality of terminals, being disposed in said slots of said insulated housing respectively, each terminal having a soldering section, being extended to said circuit board;
- an interfering section, being interfered with said slot;
- and
- a contacting section, being extended into said receiving area;
- and
- a metallic shell, said metallic shell completely surrounding said insulated housing, and said metallic shell having at least one spring extended into said receiving area,
- wherein said stop wall of said insulated housing has at least one indentation for receiving said convex of said electrical module,
- wherein said metallic shell has interfering pins on an edge of said metallic, shell;
- wherein said insulated housing has interfering holes separately corresponding to said interfering pins;
- wherein said interfering pins are interfered with said interfering holes to fix said metallic shell at outside of said insulated housing;
- wherein the plurality of interfering holes are located adjacent to a lower edge of the stop wall, and
- wherein said interfering pins are formed on an edge of said metallic shell at a direction toward said interfering holes.
