  • Patent number: 10079456
    Abstract: An electrical receptacle connector includes a metallic shell, an insulated housing, upper-row receptacle terminals, and lower-row receptacle terminals. The insulated housing is in the receptacle cavity of the metallic shell. The receptacle terminals are held in the base portion and the tongue portion. The tail portions of the power terminals and the tail portions of the ground terminals have three bent portions, i.e., the first bent portion, the second bent portion, and the third bent portion. The bent portions allow the terminals to have different and non-parallel delivering paths for electromagnetic waves, so that the signals do not interfere with each other easily.

  • Patent number: 9948041
    Abstract: An electrical receptacle connector includes a metallic shell, an insulated housing received in the metallic shell, receptacle terminals, and a grounding plate. The receptacle terminals and the grounding plate are at the insulated housing. The insulated housing includes a base portion and a tongue portion extending from the base portion. The grounding plate includes a plate body, extension arms, and contact regions. The front of the plate body is near to a front lateral surface of the tongue portion, and the rear of the plate body is extending to the base portion. The plate body is between the receptacle terminals. The extension arms are extending from the plate body. The contact regions are formed on the extension arms and in contact with an inner wall of the shell body. Accordingly, the grounding plate is in contact with the metallic shell for providing grounding and reducing the electromagnetic interference.

  • Patent number: 9735522
    Abstract: An electrical receptacle connector includes an insulating housing, receptacle terminals, and a shield shell covering the insulating housing. The receptacle terminals, arranged in a row and disposed on the insulating housing, sequentially include a first ground terminal, a first power terminal, two first differential signal terminals, a second power terminal, and a second ground terminal. The electrical receptacle connector is capable of receiving an electrical plug connector to be inserted therein in either upside-up or upside-down directions. The electrical plug connector includes upper-row plug terminals and lower-row plug terminals arranged in 2-fold rotational symmetry. Therefore, the electrical receptacle connector using the single-row receptacle terminals and the electrical plug connector using the corresponding double-row plug terminals compose a new type of USB Type-C connectors.
