Abstract: A stacked connector assembly includes a first connector device and a second connector device stacked on the first connector device. The first connector device includes an insulative housing retaining first conductive contacts therein. The second connector device includes a second insulative housing retaining second conductive contacts therein. An inner shielding member encompasses the first connector device and is partially sandwiched between the first and second housings. The first housing has a top face in which two slots are defined. The slots are spaced from each other a predetermined distance and each has an side wall opposite to each other. The second housing has a bottom face positioned on the top face of the first housing with the inner shielding member partially sandwiched therebetween.

Abstract: A board lock for retaining an electrical connector on a printed circuit board is disclosed. The board lock includes an L-shaped body having a first section riveted to a housing of the connector and a second section perpendicularly extending from the first section. A channel-like portion is formed with the second section and has two side walls. A pawl is formed on the channel-like portion, including a first finger and a second finger extending from each of the side walls. The first finger has a concave, resilient portion forming a barbed free end. The second finger has a straight portion forming a barbed free end. The pawl is received in a hole defined in the printed circuit board with the barbed ends engaging an edge of the hole to retain the connector on the printed circuit board.

Abstract: An electric connector includes a dielectric connector body (1), an insulative partition frame (2), a plurality of signal terminals (4) received in the connector body and the partition frame, a conductive positioning terminal (3) located in the connector body and the partition frame, a metal shell (5) positioned to the connector body, and a pair of plug elements (6) and rivet elements (7) cooperative to secure the partition frame to the connector body. The positioning terminal comprises a first flat coupling wall (31) and a second flat coupling wall (32) which defines a locating notch (322) at a bottom edge thereof. A locating block (213) raise from the partition frame into the locating notch, thereby fixing the positioning terminal in position.

Abstract: The present invention provides a connector assembly composed of two different types of connectors stacked on an upper layer and a lower, respectively. The same connectors are mounted on the same layer and arranged side-by-side. The adjacent connectors are fixed by male mating unit and female mating unit, whereby those connectors can be arranged in stacking and side-by-side manner. Moreover, the connectors of different types are labeled with different color for preventing wrong insertion.
