  • Patent number: 10236638
    Abstract: An electrical connector includes an insulative housing having a base and a tongue, an upper and lower rows of contacts mounted in the insulative housing and exposed upon the tongue and a pair of grounding pieces separated from each other and retained in the insulative housing between the two rows of contacts. Each grounding piece includes a securing portion disposed in the mating tongue and defines an abutment exposed upon corresponding side face of the mating tongue. The pair of grounding pieces are far away from corresponding power contacts along the transverse direction thereby resulting that the grounding pieces are wholly offset from the power contacts in the vertical direction so as to avoid the power contacts from electrical sparkle.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: January 13, 2018
    Date of Patent: March 19, 2019

  • Patent number: 9871317
    Abstract: An electrical connector includes an insulative housing, a number of terminals retained in the insulative housing, a shielding shell attached to the insulative housing, and an insulator insert-molded with a rear end of the shielding shell. The terminals have a number of soldering portions extending out of a rear surface of the insulative housing. The shielding shell has a tail portion located at a rear end thereof. The insulator at least wraps partly an external surface of the tail portion to seal up a rear end of the insulative housing and extend the soldering portions of the terminals through the insulator to expose a rear surface thereof.
