<p>SHIELDED INTERFACE CONNECTOR A connector is provided, of the type that includes a largely insulative insert device (14) that fits closely into a metal shell (24), and wherein the metal shell fits into a diecast housing (32) that can be tightly clamped in place, wherein the insert device and shell are separately held to the housing. The housing has a vertical hole (34) for receiving the insert, and has horizontally-opening slots (46, 48) at opposite ends of the hole. The shell has a casing portion with a vertical hole (26) that closely receives the insert, and has a pair of largely horizontal flange portions (42, 44) that fit into the slots in the housing, until the holes in the housing and shell are aligned so the insert device can be received in both of them. The flange portions are bent in a largely wave-like manner, to provide good electrical connection with the walls of the slots in the housing.</p> |
