Abstract: An electrical connector (100) includes an insulative housing (1) defining a number of passageways (121) for receiving corresponding contacts (2), and a metal shield (3) enclosing the insulative housing (1). The metal shield has a top face (31), a bottom face (32) and a pair of side faces (33).

Abstract: An electrical connector (100) adapted for electrically connecting with corresponding mating connectors (200) includes an insulative housing (1) defining a base portion (10), a couple of upper and lower tongue plates (11, 12) extending forwardly from the base portion (10), as well as a holding plate (13) between the tongue plates (11, 12). First and second sets of conductive terminals (31, 32) are accommodated in the tongue plates (11, 12) and a couple of upper and lower shielding members (21, 22) enclosing the tongue plates for surrounding the conductive terminals. The dimension of the holding plate (13) is greater than the dimension of the adjacent dielectric portions of the mating connectors (200) in a vertical direction. When two mating connectors are inserted to the housing for connecting with the electrical connector, they cannot intervene with each other so as to affect signal transmission.

Abstract: A hinge assembly (300) for use in a flat display monitor includes a support seat (10), a base seat (20) and a pivot mechanism. The support seat has a cutout (164) defined by two opposed side surfaces. The base seat includes a resisting member disposed thereon. The pivot mechanism rotatably connects the support seat to the base seat. A resisting member (94) on the base seat is movable in the cutout of the support seat upon rotating of the support seat relative to the base seat. The two side surfaces are configured to engage with the resisting member when the support seat rotates relative to the base seat in a manner so as to prevent the resisting member from moving further to limit a rotation angle between the support seat and the base seat.

Abstract: A hinge assembly (300) for use in a flat display monitor includes a base seat (10), a support seat (20) and a pivotal mechanism. The pivotal mechanism comprises a pivotal shaft (30) having at least one flat surface (310). The base seat defines a pivotal hole (142) therein. The support seat defines an engaging hole (242). The base seat is rotatable relative to the support seat. The pivotal shaft passes through the pivotal hole of the base seat and the engaging hole of the support seat. One of the base seat and the support seat defines a protrusion (143). The protrusion is substantially V-shaped and has two edges (1432, 1434). The flat surface of the pivotal shaft pivotally engages with the protrusion. Another one of the pivotal hole of the base seat and the engaging hole of the support seat non-rotatably engages with the pivotal shaft.

Abstract: A hinge assembly (300) includes a support seat (10), a base seat (20) and a pivot mechanism (30). The support seat defines a pivoting hole (160). The base seat defines an engaging hole (242). The pivot mechanism rotatably connects the support seat to the base seat. The pivot mechanism includes an irregular-holed tab washer (41) defining an irregular hole (414) and a pivotal shaft (31). The pivotal shaft non-rotatably engages in the engaging hole of the base seat and rotatably engages in the pivoting hole of the support seat. The irregular-holed tab washer surrounds the pivotal shaft and is non-rotatably mounted to the support seat. The pivotal shaft engages with the irregular hole of the irregular-holed tab washer for limiting a rotation angle between the support seat and the base seat.

Abstract: A memory card adapter (100) comprises an upper cover (2), an insulating lower cover (1), a conductive member (4) and a conductive terminals module (3) fixed on the insulating lower cover. The upper cover comprises a resin cover (22) and a metal cover (21). The lower insulating cover engages with the metal cover with a mini memory card receiving space (10) formed therebetween.

The mini memory card (200) is accommodated in the mini memory card receiving space and electrically connecting with the conductive terminals. Due to the arrangement of the conductive terminals module with the conductive member and the insulating lower cover, the whole assembly of the adaptor is highly simplified and the conduction efficiency is increased.
