USB electrical connector

Abstract

The present invention provides a USB electrical connector having: a plurality of electrical connection units each including a terminal block and at least two rows of conductive terminals embedded in the terminal block. The conductive terminals are embedded in the terminal block by an overmolding process, and wherein each conductive terminal has one end adapted to be electrically connected with a USB plug and the other end adapted to be connected with a printed circuit board. A joint mechanism joins and holds the plurality of electrical connection units, and a fixture fixes the other end of each conductive terminal connected with the printed circuit board. An outer shielding housing encloses the electrical connection units, the joint mechanism and the fixture. The USB electrical connector of the present invention enables a plurality of rows of conductive terminals to be set in stable and good relative positions.
