  • Patent number: 10476195
    Abstract: An electrical receptacle connector includes a plurality of lower terminals, a lower insulator, a shielding plate, a plurality of upper terminals, an upper insulator and an outer insulator. The lower insulator partially covers the lower terminals and exposes a lower contact area of a lower contact segment of each lower terminal. The shielding plate is assembled onto the lower insulator. The upper insulator partially covers the upper terminals, exposes an upper contact area of an upper contact segment of each upper terminal, and is assembled onto the lower insulator. The outer insulator partially covers the above elements, and exposes the lower contact areas and the upper contact areas.

  • Patent number: 10468808
    Abstract: An electrical plug connector includes a plurality of terminals and an insulator, a pair of grounding latches, a shielding spring and a shielding shell. Each of the terminals has a contacting segment and an elastic segment. Each of the contacting segments has a stopping face. The insulator partially covers the terminals and has a plurality of stopping edges. When the electrical plug connector is inserted into an electrical receptacle connector, shape deformation of each of the elastic segments shifts the corresponding contacting segment until the corresponding stopping edge is against the corresponding stopping face, and each contacting segment does not protrude from the insulator. When the electrical plug connector is not inserted into the electrical receptacle connector, shape recovery of each of the elastic segments restores the corresponding contacting segment and the corresponding stopping edge is away from the stopping face.

  • Patent number: 9203176
    Abstract: A plug connector is for connecting to a receptacle connector. The receptacle connector comprises two resilient plates. The plug connector has an insulating housing and a metal shell. The insulating housing includes a tongue portion and a base portion for accommodating and connecting the terminals. The metal shell has a top plate, bottom plate, and two side plates. Multiple recesses, protrusions or elongated recesses are selectively formed on at least one of the top plate, the bottom plate for connecting the resilient plates. These can avoid electromagnetic interference, dusts or any external substances from attaching to the insulating house and also ensure a high quality of the insertion force and the extraction force after frequent uses.

  • Patent number: 9124059
    Abstract: A Mini DisplayPort connector receptacle including an insulator, a plurality of contacts and a metal shell surrounding the insulator. The insulator includes a first insulator and a second insulator with a base portion, a positioning portion, and a tongue plate. The tongue plate defines first contact locations on a top side of the tongue plate and second contact locations on a bottom side of the tongue plate. The contacts include upper contacts at the corresponding first contact location and lower contacts at the corresponding second contact location. The connection portions of the lower contacts are held by the base portion and insert-molded in the base portion, and the partial soldering portions of the lower contacts are held by the positioning portion and insert-molded in the positioning portion.

  • Publication number: 20140120781
    Abstract: A micro-connector socket which is capable of being connected with a predefined connector plug includes an insulating main body, a plurality of terminals and a metal housing. The insulating main body includes a base portion, a positioning portion and a tongue plate. The positioning portion is formed by extending the base portion backwardly, and the tongue plate is formed by extending the base portion forwardly and has a terminal groove passing through the base portion and the positioning portion. The terminals are inserted into the terminal groove of the insulating main body. The metal housing encloses out of the insulating main body. The terminals are positioned by the positioning portion, so that the terminals are in their corresponding true positions.
