Abstract
An electrical connector includes an insulating housing (1) defining a mating face and a cylindrical receiving space (13) running though the mating face. A plurality of terminals is retained in the insulating housing and each includes contacting portions projecting to the receiving space and solder portions extending downwardly out of the housing. A retaining device (6) is individually formed and has a second portion (63) located at a rear portion of the housing for receiving the solder portions of the terminals and a first portion (61) located under a bottom wall of the housing. An indicating device (5) is received in the first portion (61) and facing the mating face.
Claims11
A sunk electrical connector comprising:
- an insulative housing defining a mounting face adapted for engaging with a printed circuit board (PCB);
- a plurality of terminals mounted on the insulative housing;
- a retaining device mounted on the insulative housing;
- and
- an indicating device received in the retaining device and located under said mounting face;
- wherein the insulative housing and the retaining device form a plurality of supporting portions on periphery portions, said supporting portions are engaging with the PCB when the electrical connector is mounted onto the PCB, and said mounting face is between the supporting portions and the PCB.
An electrical connector assembly comprising:
- a printed circuit board defining a notch;
- an electrical connector including:
- an insulative housing received in the notch and providing a mating port above the printed circuit board with terminals therein;
- an indicating device associated with the housing and located below the printed circuit board;
- wherein said indicating device is held in a retainer which is attached to the housing and defining through holes to retain terminal tails of said terminals for mounting to the printed circuit board.
A sunk electrical connector for mounting onto a printed circuit board (PCB) comprising:
- an insulating housing defining a mating face for facing a mating connector face and a cylindrical receiving space running though the mating face;
- a plurality of terminals retained in the insulating housing and each comprising contacting portions projecting to the receiving space and solder portions extending downwardly out of the housing;
- a retaining device individually formed and comprising a second portion located at a rear portion of the housing for receiving the solder portions of the terminals and a first portion located under a bottom wall of the housing;
- and
- an indicating device received in the first portion and facing the mating connector.
