  • Patent number: 7677904
    Abstract: An electrical connector includes an insulating housing and a plurality of electric terminals. The insulating housing defines a plurality of terminal grooves for correspondingly receiving the electric terminals therein. Each of the electric terminals has a welded portion extending outside from a rear of the insulating housing for being soldered to a printed circuit board. A substantially inversed funnel shaped injecting portion is formed at a middle portion of the welded portion for leading liquid-state material to inject therefrom and then flow to the welded portion until the liquid-state material is solidified and integrated with the insulating housing. Therefore, the welded portions are not easily warped while soldered to the printed circuit board. Thus, the welded portions are soldered to the printed circuit board firmly, and the electrical connection between the electrical connector and the printed circuit board is more stable.
