Battery connector having reliably positioned terminals

摘要

A battery connector according to the present invention comprises an insulative housing and a plurality of terminals received in the insulative housing. The insulative housing includes a plurality of partitions in a middle portion of the housing. The partitions define a plurality of cavity sections therebetween for receiving mating contacts of a mating connector. A groove and a recess are respectively defined in an upper portion of each partition and in a rear top wall between adjacent partition. Each terminal includes a retaining body, a soldering leg downwardly extending at a rearward side of the retaining body, a contacting arm for electrically connecting with a complementary connector angularly extending from a lower front edge of the retaining body into a corresponding cavity section and a fixing tail rearwardly extending from a rear edge of the retaining body of the terminal for being held in a recess of the insulative housing. A clamping end depends perpendicularly from the fixing tail for being retained in the groove of a partition.
