Abstract:
1. An electrical connector, comprising: a main housing having a base body, a tongue board extending forward from a front of the base body, and a bearing board extending sideward from one side face of the base body, a top face of the bearing board defining a receiving cavity penetrating rearward through the bearing board, a back of the base body being concaved forward to form a receiving chamber penetrating sideward through the base body to communicate with the receiving cavity; an inner housing disposed in the receiving chamber of the main housing; a plurality of conductive terminals each having a fastening arm placed horizontally, one end of the fastening arm extending forward and being arched upward to form a contact arm, and the other end of the fastening arm extending sideward and being arched upward to form a touching arm perpendicular to the contact arm, the fastening arms being apart molded in the inner housing, the contact arms being arranged at regular intervals along a transverse direction in front of the inner housing and elastically projecting beyond a top face of the tongue board, and the touching arms being arranged at regular intervals along a longitudinal direction at one side of the inner housing, the touching arms being received in the receiving cavity of the main housing and elastically projecting upward beyond the top face of the bearing board; and a shielding shell enclosing the main housing and the inner housing, wherein an external circuit board is horizontally mounted on the bearing board with the touching arms of the conductive terminals being elastically against and further pressed downward by the circuit board to realize electrical connection with the circuit board.
