Ling-Tai Liu has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Patent number: 10601186
    Abstract: A plug electrical connector including an insulator, a plurality of elastic terminals, at least one shielding spring, and an outer shell is provided. The elastic terminals are disposed in the insulator and arranged along an axial direction. The elastic terminals includes at least one grounding terminal arranged at a first position or a last position of the elastic terminals. The shielding spring is assembled to an exterior surface of the insulator. A portion of the shielding spring on the axial direction is disposed on a deformable path of the grounding terminal. The insulator, the elastic terminals, and the shielding spring are accommodated in the outer shell.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 10148040
    Abstract: An electrical plug connector includes an insulated housing received in a metallic shell, first and second terminal modules respectively above and below the insulated housing, and abutting plates (EMI (Electro-Magnetic Interference) plates). Each abutting plate (EMI plate) is between the metallic shell and the insulated housing. Each abutting plate (EMI plate) includes a main body and elastic arms outwardly extending from the main body. Each elastic arm includes a terminal contact portion and a shell contact portion. The terminal contact portion is extending toward a corresponding recessed hole of the insulated housing and contacts one or more first ground terminal of the first terminal module or one or more second ground terminal of the second terminal module. The shell contact portion contacts an inner surface of the metallic shell. Therefore, the high frequency features of the connector can be optimized effectively and resonant problems of the connector can be improved.
