Electrical connector with a mating port for different transporting interfaces

摘要

An electric device assembly defines a first direction and a second direction perpendicular to each other. The electric device assembly includes a first electric device and a second device connecting each other. The first device includes a first electrical connector and a first securing element. The first connector defines a first mating port. The second device includes a second electrical connector defining a second mating port to be plugged and mated to the first mating port. The second device further includes a second securing element able to be separate from the second electrical connector. The second securing element is assembled to the second electrical connector and locked to the first securing element for electrically and mechanically connecting the first and second devices.

1. An electric device assembly comprising:
a first device comprising a first electrical connector and a first securing element, the first connector defining a first mating port; a second device adapted for mating the first device, comprising a second electrical connector defining a second mating port to be plugged and mated to the first mating port; wherein the second device further comprises a second securing element separable from the second electrical connector; wherein the second securing element is assemble to the second electrical connector and locked to the first securing element for electrically and mechanically connecting the first and second devices; wherein
the first and second electrical connectors are mated to each other along a first direction, one of the second connector and said second securing element defines at least one retaining post extending along a second direction perpendicular to said first direction, and the other of said second connector and said second securing element defines at least one slot for receiving said retaining post to allow said retaining post to slide therein along a third direction perpendicular to both said first direction and said second direction.
