Abstract: A method of forming a colored appearance suitable for forming a colored appearance for a conductive casing of a connector is provided. The conductive casing has a body and at least one lead. The lead extends from the body. The method of forming a colored appearance includes the following steps. A surface of the conductive casing is roughened. A conductive metal layer is formed on the roughened surface of the conductive casing. A shielding layer is formed on a part of the conductive metal layer located on the lead. A colorful conductive layer is formed on the conductive casing. The shielding layer and a part of the colorful conductive layer located on the shielding layer are removed to expose the part of the conductive metal layer on the lead. Therefore, the conductive casing has a colored appearance.

Abstract: A connector module includes an electrical connector and a sound-receiving component. The connector includes an insulation casing and multiple conductive terminals disposed at and passing through the insulating casing. The insulation casing has a jack hole at the outer-side thereof and a channel at the inner-side thereof and extending along an axial direction. The connector is adapted to connect the plug plugged into the channel from the jack hole. The sound-receiving component is disposed at the insulation casing along a radial direction, wherein the insulation casing has an opening communicated with the channel and corresponding to the sound-receiving component and the sound-receiving component is adapted to receive the sound transmitted into the channel from the jack hole via the opening. A handheld electronic device is also provided which includes a casing and a connector module disposed in the casing and adapted to connect a plug or receive a sound.

Abstract: An audio jack for receiving an audio plug includes a connection hole with a position detection portion and a first audio channel contact portion therein. When the audio plug is inserted into the connection hole to the linking position, a first audio channel connection portion of the audio plug contacts the position detection portion and the first audio channel contact portion. The position detection portion and the first audio channel contact portion respectively have a first distance and a second distance to an opening of the connection hole, wherein the second distance is smaller than the first distance.

Abstract: A socket connector having high current carrying capacity is provided by enlarging cross-section of particular terminals, to meet requirement such as transmitting large current or quick charge. Furthermore, a plug connector coupled with the socket connector, a connector assembly including the socket connector and the plug connector, and a handheld electronic device applying the socket connector are provided.

Abstract: A connector and an electronic apparatus and a combination comprising the connector for first and second joints are disclosed. The connector includes a base, a plurality of first pins, and a plurality of second pins. The base has a first and a second connecting surface. The first pins are disposed on the first connecting surface and the quantity of the first pins is the same as the pin quantity of the first joint. In addition, the second pins are disposed on the second connecting surface and the total quantity of the second pins and the first pins is the same as the pin quantity of the second joint. The base may include two convex parts and a concave part. The first connecting surface and the second connecting surface are disposed on surfaces of the two convex parts respectively. The concave part accommodates the two convex parts.

Abstract: A plastic dryer has a drying tank provided with a magnetic control tube in the interior. The magnetic control tube is connected with a connecting tube, which has one end installed with an air filter having a wind inlet and the other end connected with a wind duct, which is connected with a windmill. Thus, microwave heating of the magnetic control tube is able to vaporize the water molecule of the plastic in the drying tank and dry it up with quickness, able to economize time and electricity and having excellent effect in drying plastic. The dried plastic is used for injecting molding by an injection-molding machine.
