Abstract:
1. An electrical connector for soldering to a substrate, comprising: an insulative housing comprising an upper block and a lower block protruded outwardly; a plurality of contacts received in the insulative housing; a plurality of soldering members connected the contacts, respectively, each of the soldering members protruded beyond a bottom of the insulative housing; and a position member surrounding the insulative housing and moved downwardly relative to the insulative housing, the position member including a body portion and a soldering portion extending from the body portion; wherein the upper block of the insulative housing is located under the body portion of the position member and the lower block is located on the upper side of the body portion of the position member to prevent the position member distorting from the insulative housing, when the soldering members and the soldering portion are put in a same plane, there is a space between the body portion of the position member and the lower block of the insulative housing; wherein the insulative housing comprises a pair of first ends opposite to each other and a pair of second ends connecting the pair of first ends, the upper block is set on the first end, the lower block is set on the second end; wherein the body portion includes a first side locates below the lower block and a second side extending upwardly from the first side, the second side locates on the upper side of the upper block, the space is formed between the first side of the body portion and the lower block of the insulative housing; wherein the pair of first sides and the pair of second sides form a window for receiving the insulative housing, the second side includes a receiving portion for receiving the upper block; and wherein the position member further includes a retention portion extending upwardly from the body portion, the retention portion includes a spring portion extending upwardly from the body portion and an interlock portion extending upwardly from the spring portion, during the assembling process of the electrical connector, the upper block of the insulative housing push the spring portion to make it deformed.
