  • Publication number: 20180040990
    Abstract: A receptacle connector is provided which has an insulating body, a plurality of conductive terminals, two grounding latches and a metal shell. The body has a housing and a tongue. Each terminal has a mating portion, a soldering portion and a connecting portion. The mating portion is exposed on the tongue. The soldering portion extends outwardly from the housing. The terminals are divided into upper and lower rows. Each row has at least two grounding terminals and at least two power terminals. The latches are embedded in the body and are partly exposed to two sides of the tongue, and each have a ground soldering leg extending outwardly from the housing. The shell is fixed on the body and surrounds an outer periphery of the tongue to form a mating cavity. The latches are each interposed between the grounding terminals of the upper and lower rows.

  • Patent number: 9761977
    Abstract: A conductive terminal and an electrical connector are disclosed. The conductive terminal comprises a mating portion positioned at a front end, a tail portion for connecting a conductive wire and a fixed portion connected between the mating portion and the tail portion. Wherein the fixed portion comprises a bottom wall, two side walls bent upwardly respectively from two sides of the bottom wall, a lock tang obliquely extending rearwardly and upwardly from the middle of the bottom wall and two stopping protrusions protruding inwardly from the two side walls, the two stopping protrusions abut against the lock tang so as to prevent the lock tang from being improperly deformed due to a force applied. The present invention can assure that the conductive terminal is firmly fixed in insulative body of the electrical connector.
