The receptacle housing disposes shoulders respectively corresponding to the first and the second wing portions. The plug connector includes a plug housing and a plurality of plug terminal. Each plug terminal includes a first and a second contact portions. When the plug connector and the receptacle connector are mated together, the plug terminal and the receptacle terminal can realize a two-position contact for providing a stable signal transmission. When pulling out the plug connector, the shoulders of the receptacle housing can block the receptacle terminal to be pulled out thereby ensuring the stable combination of the receptacle terminal and the receptacle housing. | 05-30-2013 |
20130137308 | BOARD-TO-BOARD CONNECTOR - Provided is a board-to-board connector, including a male connector and a female connector. The male connector includes a male housing and a plurality of male terminals. Each male terminal has a U-shaped plug portion. The female connector includes a female housing and a plurality of female terminals. Each female terminal has a first contact portion, a second contact portion and an inserting space. When the male and female terminals are engaged with each other, the flexible end of the male terminal is engaged with the rigid end of the female terminal, and the rigid end of the male terminal is engaged with the flexible end of the female terminal. Accordingly, the male and female terminals are engaged together by combining the rigid with the flexible so that avoiding resulting in the deformation and the damage of the terminals, and further assuring the performance of the board-to-board connector. | 05-30-2013 |
20130210281 | ELECTRICAL CONNECTOR - An electrical connector includes an insulating housing defining a plurality of terminal grooves of substantial U-shape, and a plurality of electrical terminals of which each has a contact arm, a positioning body of a substantially inverted-U shape and a connecting arm connected between two bottom ends of the contact arm and one arm of the positioning body. The electrical terminal is assembled upward in the terminal groove. The contact arm and the one arm of the positioning body incline towards each other to make tops thereof project out of the terminal groove for clamping a mating terminal of a mating connector therebetween. A top sidewall of the terminal groove corresponding to the contact arm is inclined downward from outside to inside to be designated as a blocking wall which is located above the contact arm to restrict the contact arm in the terminal groove. | 08-15-2013 |

20120126020 | THERMOSTAT WIRING CONNECTOR - A thermostat and related methods is provided for controlling an HVAC system. The thermostat includes wiring terminals adapted and configured to make an electrical connection with an HVAC system wires such as common, heating and cooling control and return wires. The making of the connection with a common wire actuates switching open a loop of an electrical circuit used for power harvesting. According to some embodiments, the wiring terminal includes actuation of a moveable part of the terminal so as to accommodate the common wire that in turn actuates the switching open the power harvesting loop. More than one other loop can be switched. According to some embodiments, the wiring terminal can be used to automatically connect and/or disconnect Rc and Rh circuits when one or both Rc and Rh wires are present. According to some embodiments, the wiring terminal can be used for electronically sensing the presence of the HVAC system wire. | 05-24-2012 |
20150162681 | CARD CONNECTOR - A card connector includes an insulating housing, a plurality of conductive terminals, at least one ejection mechanism, at least one reset mechanism, a shielding shell and a card tray. The reset mechanism is disposed to a front of the insulating housing with a base portion located at a front thereof elastically projecting beyond a front surface of the insulating housing. The card tray slidably disposed to the insulating housing includes a base board, and a cover portion protruded forward and then spread outward from a front end of the base board and projecting beyond the front end of the base board. The front surface of the base portion of the reset mechanism abuts against a rear surface of an enclosure of the electronic device so as to make a front surface of the cover portion be flush with an outer surface of the electronic device. | 06-11-2015 |
20150188257 | CARD CONNECTOR - A card connector includes an insulating housing, a plurality of conductive terminals integrally molded to the insulating housing, an ejection mechanism, a card tray slidably assembled to the insulating housing, and at least one restraining element restrained in one side of the card tray. The insulating housing includes a bottom wall, a first side wall, a second side wall, and a rear wall which defines a recess. The second side wall defines a sliding groove. A bottom surface of the sliding groove is concaved downward to form a heart-shaped tracking groove. The ejection mechanism includes a connecting element slidably disposed in the sliding groove, a push button, a guiding element slidably disposed in the sliding groove, a rotating element rotatably disposed in the recess and an elastic element.
