Patent ID: 8439691

Claim:
An electrical connector, comprising: an insulating body; a plurality of first terminals each having a first fastening strip, a first contact portion and a first soldering tail connected with two opposite ends of the first fastening strip, the first fastening strips being disposed in a top surface of the insulating body with the first contact portions projecting in front of the insulating body and the first soldering tails stretching downward behind the insulating body; a plurality of second terminals each having a second fastening strip, a second contact portion and a second soldering tail connected with two opposite ends of the second fastening strip, the second fastening strips being disposed in a bottom surface of the insulating body with the second contact portions elastically projecting downward beyond the bottom surface of the insulating body and the second soldering tails penetrating downward through a rear end of the insulating body; a holding body mounted to the rear end of the insulating body and defining a plurality of positioning apertures penetrating vertically therethrough for positioning the first and second soldering tails therein, free ends of the soldering tails further stretching beyond a bottom side of the holding body; and an insulating housing having a base body and a tongue board extending forward from an upper portion of a front of the base body, a bottom of the tongue board defining a receiving recess extending longitudinally to penetrate through the base body, a front end of the bottom of the tongue board defining a plurality of positioning cavities connecting with the receiving recess, a rear end of the receiving recess penetrating downward through the base body to define an opening, wherein the insulating body with the first and second terminals and the holding body are inserted forward into the receiving recess of the insulating housing until a front end of the insulating body resists against a front inner side of the receiving recess, the first contact portions of the first terminals are positioned in the positioning cavities of the insulating housing respectively, and the holding body is secured in the opening, wherein a bottom of the rear of the insulating body protrudes rearward to form two holding blocks spaced from each other, the holding body has a positioning body of which a substantial middle protrudes upward to form a pair of fastening barbs having free ends thereof curved forward to grapple the corresponding holding blocks of the insulating body, so as to make the holding body assembled to the insulating body with a front of the positioning body abutting under the insulating body.
