Abstract: An electronic device includes a circuit module with a circuit board, and a plug connector with a supporting base, several terminals, and an outer shell. The terminals are disposed at the supporting base, and connected to the circuit board. The outer shell surrounds the supporting base, and has two parallel horizontal plates. Two extending plates are extended from a front surface of one of the horizontal plates. A slot is formed among that horizontal plate and the two extending plates. Via these arrangements, the out shell of the plug connector has the slot, so that the deformation of the outer shell is more easily caused. Thus, even if the assembly tolerance between the plug connector and the socket connector is deviated, the force for plugging or unplugging the plug connector would not be too abnormal. That is because the outer shell can be easily deformed to compensate for the deviation.

The C-shaped contact spring is back and forth movable to keep the nut in contact with the inner sleeve so as to achieve good grounding effect.

Abstract: A bicycle seat tube assembly includes an outer tube and an inner tube is movably inserted into the outer tube. A valve unit has a first end fixed to the first end cap and a second end of the valve unit is inserted into the inner tube so as to define the interior space of the inner tube into a first oil room and a second oil room. The valve unit regulates volume of oil between the first and second oil rooms. A restriction unit includes a flange on the inner periphery of the inner tube and a stop member located on the valve unit. The stop member contacts the flange when the inner tube moves to a position so as to restrict the inner tube from dropping out from the outer tube.
