Electrical connector having low profile characteristics

摘要

An electrical connector includes an outer housing having two side arms extended from two opposite lateral sides of a holder base thereof and defining with the holder base a sliding space, a movable inner housing movable in and out of the sliding space and having two upright sidewalls at two opposite lateral sides of a bottom panel thereof and defining with the bottom panel a mating space, mating contact pins mounted at the bottom panel of the movable inner housing and partially suspending in the mating space, and a flexible connection interface electrically connected with the mating contact pins and extending out of the movable inner housing and the outer housing for connection to an external transmission interface.

主权项

1. An electrical connector, comprising:
an electrically insulative outer housing comprising a holder base, two side arms extended from two opposite lateral sides of said holder base in one same direction in a parallel manner, and a sliding space surrounded by said holder base and said side arms; an electrically insulative movable inner housing movable in and out of said sliding space of said electrically insulative outer housing, said electrically insulative movable inner housing comprising a bottom panel, two upright sidewalls respectively perpendicularly extended from two opposite lateral sides of said bottom panel, and a mating space surrounded by said bottom panel and said upright sidewalls; a plurality of mating contact pins mounted at said bottom panel of said electrically insulative movable inner housing and partially suspending in said mating space; and a flexible connection interface electrically connected with said mating contact pins and extending out of said electrically insulative movable inner housing and said electrically insulative outer housing for connection to an external transmission interface; and wherein said electrically insulative outer housing further comprises an endless sliding groove longitudinally located on an inner side of one said side arm and defining a rear positioning end portion; said electrically insulative movable inner housing further comprises a wire guide rod, said wire guide rod having one end thereof fastened to one said upright side panel of said electrically insulative movable inner housing and an opposite end thereof coupled to said endless sliding groove of said electrically insulative outer housing for guiding said electrically insulative movable inner housing to move in and out of said sliding space of said electrically insulative outer housing between a close position and an open position.
