Electrical connector with steady shell

摘要

An electrical connector includes an insulative housing having base section and a mating port forwardly projecting from the base section, a number of terminals loaded in the insulative housing and each having a contact section disposed in the mating port and a shell provided with a frame section surrounding the mating port and a plate section attached to the base section. The plate section is formed with a pair of ears at opposite longitudinal ends of the base section. The electrical connector further includes a pair of locking blocks disposed at opposite longitudinal ends of the base section. Each locking block is formed with a mounting section rooted onto the base section and a forwardly extending hook beside the mating port. The ears of the plate section are securely sandwiched between the mounting sections of the locking blocks and the base section, respectively.
