  • Patent number: 10218121
    Abstract: An electrical cable connector includes a case forming a front receiving cavity, and a rear receiving cavity. An upward room is formed in an upper face of the case. A latch is pivotally mounted in the room with an upward locking hook at a front end thereof in an up-and-down moveable manner. An actuator is engaged with the latch to actuate the latch to be unlatched from the locking hole in the cage via a rearward pulling. An engagement between the latch and the actuator is performed by a latch slot in the latch and a T-shaped lug on the underside of the actuator moving along the latch slot. A curve structure is formed on the latch along a front-to-back direction so as to have the latch to be pivoted during rearward pulling the actuator, thus having the upward locking hook downward moved for unlatching.

  • Patent number: 10211571
    Abstract: A receptacle connector includes an insulative housing equipped with a plurality of receptacle contacts and enclosed by a capsular metallic shield sub-assembly. An insulative holder encloses the shield sub-assembly with a deflectable latching structure thereon. The plug connector includes an insulative body equipped with a plurality of plug contacts. An internal PCB is located behind the housing and soldered with the corresponding contacts. A capsular metallic shell encloses the insulative body and adapted to be received within the metallic shield during mating. A cable is connected to the PCB. An insulative cover encloses the internal PCB, the rear portion of the insulative body and the front portion of the cable with a retaining structure to be coupled with the latching structure, and a sliding assurance structure ensuring the latching structure and the retaining structure to be securely engaged with each other for maintaining the reliable mating.

  • Patent number: 10062989
    Abstract: A receptacle connector includes an insulative receptacle housing defining two grooves located inside two corresponding lengthwise walls and extending along a longitudinal direction to receive the two lengthwise walls of the plug connector therein. A center island is formed between the two grooves in the transverse direction perpendicular to the longitudinal direction. Two rows of passageways are formed in the corresponding lengthwise walls, respectively, and each passageway communicates with the corresponding groove. Two rows of receptacle contacts are disposed in the corresponding passageways, respectively.

  • Publication number: 20170054254
    Abstract: An connector assembly includes a male connector (100) having a male housing (10) and a plurality of male contacts (12); and a female connector (200) for mating with said male connector including a female housing (20) and a plurality of female contacts (21) retained in said female housing. Each female contact defines a pair of mating plates (211) spaced away from each other for said male contact locating therebetween. Each pair of said mating plates (211) have a pair of spring leaves (22) connecting therewith and defining a plurality of spring fingers (221) resiliently clamping the corresponding male contact (12) therebetween.
