Abstract:
The terminal is used within a card edge connector. Each terminal includes a base, a connecting tail extending downwardly form the base, first and second extending sections commonly extending upwardly from the base while spaced from each other, and first and second contacting sections respectively extending from the corresponding extending sections and into the central slot wherein all the base, the extending sections, the contacting sections and the connecting section lie in a same plane. The first contacting section is lower than the second contacting section. The first extending section is closer to the central slot than the second extending section is, and has more deflected regions thereof than the second extending section for increasing the length and the corresponding resiliency thereof.
Abstract:
A card edge connector includes an elongated insulative housing, a number of contacts retained in the insulative housing, and an ejector received in the insulating housing for locking with a memory card. The insulative housing includes a passageway and at least one tower portion extending upwardly from an end thereof. The tower portion has a two opposite side walls, and a middle wall located between two side walls. The ejector has a base portion defining a lower ejecting section, a locking portion defining a locking section, and a narrowed reinforcing portion formed between the base portion and the locking portion. The narrowed reinforcing portion being thinner than the base portion and the locking portion, and the middle wall has a narrowed slot communicating with the elongated passageway to permit the narrowed reinforcing portion to rotate inward to lower a height of the card edge connector.
Abstract:
An electrical connector includes an insulative housing and a plurality of contacts received in the housing. At least a retainer is retained in the insulative housing. The retainer includes a soldering portion leaning on a bottom side of the housing and said housing defines a hole corresponding to said soldering portion. The hole communicates with exterior in both a lengthwise direction and an inserting direction which is perpendicular to the lengthwise direction for enhancing the stability of welding.
Abstract:
A card edge connector includes an elongated insulative housing extending in a longitudinal direction and defining at least one tower portion extending upwardly from a longitudinal end thereof, a plurality of contacts retained in the insulative housing, and an ejector received in the at least one tower portion for latching with or ejecting a memory card. The ejector has a base portion rotatably attached to the tower portion and a locking portion rotatably attached to the base portion, the at least one tower portion has a slot, the locking portion is rotatable inward to face towards the top surface of the insulative housing in order to reduce a height of the card edge connector, the base portion has a lower ejecting section, and the locking portion has an upper locking section.
