ELECTRICAL CONNECTOR WITH IMPROVED CONTACTS

摘要

An electrical connector comprises an insulative housing with a plurality of ports, a plurality of contacts received in the insulative housing, a rear seat assembled to a rear side of the insulative housing and a metal shell covering the insulative housing. The insulative housing has a plurality of slots recessed from a rear surface thereof for retaining the contacts. The contact has a linking portion positioned in the rear sear and a mating portion bent from the linking portion and exposed in the port. The mating portions of the contacts in a same port are located in different heights, and at least one of the mating potions is inclined, so as to provide an inclined force to an inserted mating connector thereby reducing a pressing force to the inserted plug during engaging.

主权项

1. An electrical connector, comprising:
an insulative housing with a port and a plurality of contact slots; a plurality of contacts mounted to the contact slots of the insulative housing, the contacts having two sound contacts and two detent pins, each contact formed with a linking portion extending downwardly beyond the insulative housing and a mating portion bent forwardly from the linking portion and extending into the port of the insulative housing, and the mating portions of the detent pins and one of the sound contacts being located at three different horizontal planes, while the other mating portion of the sound contact being located at an inclined plane relative to the horizontal planes; and a metal shell covering the insulative housing.
