  • Patent number: 7438608
    Abstract: This invention discloses a novel socket connector and female terminals therein. The female terminal has a contact portion and an attachment portion. The attachment portion is set to attach to a wire core, while the contact portion is set to permit a pin to plug in and contact conductively. A neck with a smaller diameter is provided between the contact portion and the attachment portion. The contact portion comprises an outer barrel and an inner tube having a plurality of spring elements extending axially. Each spring element has a biasing section toward the inner tube axis near the plug-in entrance for matching the contact pin. The other side of the spring element distant from the biasing section is connected to the inner tube. The inner tube and the outer barrel are made of a metal sheet in one-piece construction while the inner tube is connected to the neck at one end and connected to the outer barrel via the folded part at the opposite side. The outer barrel is shorter than the inner tube.
