  • Patent number: 9413098
    Abstract: A waterproof electronic receptacle connector includes a plastic-core housing, an insulation housing, terminals, a waterproof ring gasket and a sealing material. The plastic-core housing includes a through hole. The insulation housing is configured in the through hole and includes a base and a tongue plate. The base includes an inner side plane facing toward the through hole and an outer side plane facing toward an outside of the through hole. The tongue plate is extended from the inner side plane. The terminals are passing through the base. Each terminal includes a contacting end extended from the tongue plate and a welding end connected to the contacting end and extruded from the outer side plane. The waterproof ring gasket is abutted between the base and an inner wall of the through hole. The sealing material is formed on the outer side plane to fill gaps between the terminal and the base.

  • Patent number: 9401573
    Abstract: An electrical plug connector includes an insulated housing, conductive terminals, and a metallic shell. The insulated housing includes a base portion and recessed portions configured at two sides of the base portion. The conductive terminals are held at the base portion. The metallic shell includes a body shell, two stopping pieces, two holding portions, and an extending sheet. The body shell encloses the base portion and defines two engaging grooves. The stopping pieces are protruded out of lateral inner surfaces of the body shell to engage with the recessed portions. The holding portions allow connections of portions of the body shell spaced by the engaging groove and hold two sides of the circuit board from moving. Engaging pieces of the extending sheet are engaged with the circuit board to prevent the circuit board from being detached from the insulated housing to prevent charging or data transmission failure.

    Abstract: This invention is related to a waterproof electrical connector which comprises an insulation body, a metal shell, a plurality of terminals, a waterproof rubber, and a waterproof rubber ring. The insulation body includes a rubber core portion and a tongue plate portion, the tongue plate portion extending outward from the rubber core portion. The metal shell surrounds the insulation body and forms a receiving cavity, wherein the metal shell is a seamless structure. These terminals are fixed in the rubber core portion, one end of the terminals is located in the tongue plate portion, and the other end of the terminals pierces through the side of the rubber core portion away from the tongue plate portion. The waterproof rubber is located at the side of the rubber core portion away from the tongue plate portion, and stuck to the metal shell, the rubber core portion, and these terminals. And the waterproof rubber ring surrounds the front end of the metal shell.

  • Publication number: 20160036177
    Abstract: A connector receptacle includes an insulating housing, a plurality of contacts, a protective plate, and a metallic shell. The insulating housing includes a base portion and a tongue portion extending from the base portion. The tongue portion defines a plurality of receiving slots through the base portion. The contacts are inserted into the receiving slots, and a power contact exists among the contacts. The protective plate includes a planner main portion and two connecting arm portions. The planar main portion is disposed on the tongue portion, and includes a planar section, a front section, a side section, and a connecting section. One lateral side of the planar section is a cutting notch exposing parts of the tongue portion which corresponds to the power contact. The cutting notch prevents the power contact and the protective plate from contacting while connecting with a plug, so as to secure the safety.

  • Patent number: 8011959
    Abstract: A high frequency micro connector has an insulating housing, multiple first terminals and multiple terminals. The insulating housing has a base, a first tongue and a second tongue. The first and second terminals are mounted through the base respectively on the first and second tongue. The second tongue includes pairs of high frequency signal transmission terminals each having a transverse extension section and a soldering section formed on the transverse extension section. The transverse extension sections of each pair protrude reversely and oppositely to increase the distance between the soldering sections therefore to prevent crosstalk between the high frequency signal transmission terminals.
