    Abstract: Connector systems may include a connector receptacle and connector plug or insert. The connector receptacle may include a tongue. A first plurality of contacts may be formed on a top surface of the tongue. A first ground pad may be located on a top surface of tongue, and a shield may be formed around the tongue. The connector insert may include a housing and a conductive shield around the housing behind a leading edge of the connector insert. A front edge of the shield may be folded into an opening at the leading edge. In other examples, the receptacle shield may include one or more fingers. These fingers may contact the connector insert shield to form a ground path. One or more of these fingers may engage openings in the insert shield to provide a retention force between the connector insert and receptacle.

    Abstract: This application relates to magnetically actuated electrical connectors. The electrical connectors includes movable magnetic elements that move in response to an externally applied magnetic field. In some embodiments, the electrical connectors includes recessed contacts that move from a recessed position to an engaged position in response to an externally applied magnetic field associated with an electronic device to which the connector is designed to be coupled. In some embodiments, the external magnetic field has a particular polarity pattern configured to draw contacts associated with a matching polarity pattern out of the recessed position.

    Abstract translation: 本申请涉及磁力驱动的电连接器。 电连接器包括响应于外部施加的磁场而移动的可移动的磁性元件。 在一些实施例中,电连接器包括响应于与连接器被设计为耦合到的电子设备相关联的外部施加的磁场,从凹陷位置移动到接合位置的凹入触点。 在一些实施例中,外部磁场具有特定的极性图案,其被配置为将与匹配极性图案相关联的触点拉出凹入位置。
