Patent ID: 8641455

Claim:
A Universal Serial Bus connector adapted for being perpendicularly mounted to a printed circuit board which defines a mating window, comprising: an insulating housing having a base body, a first tongue extending forward from a lower portion of a front of the base body, and a second tongue extending forward from a bottom of the front of the base body and parallelly spaced from the first tongue, a top surface of the first tongue defining a plurality of first passages arranged at regular intervals along a transverse direction thereof and each extending longitudinally to penetrate through a rear of the base body, a bottom surface of the second tongue defining a plurality of second passages arranged in accordance with the first passages and each extending longitudinally to penetrate through the second tongue, rear ends of the first passage and the corresponding second passage being communicated with each other in the base body; a terminal group comprising: a plurality of first terminals of which each has a long contact slice levelly disposed in the rear of the first passage of the insulating housing, and a contact arm extending forward from a front end of the contact slice and curved upward to elastically project beyond the top surface of the first tongue, and a plurality of second terminals disposed in the second passages of the insulating housing, each second terminal having a fastening arm, an extension arm extending rearward and inclining upward from a rear end of the fastening arm, an elastic arm curvedly extending upward from a rear end of the extension arm, and a soldering tail bent downward from a front end of the fastening arm, wherein the elastic arm is disposed in the rear of the second passage and electrically abuts against a bottom face of the contact slice of the corresponding first terminal, and the soldering tail projects out from a front end of the second passage and further beyond the bottom surface of the second tongue, the soldering tails are transversely in alignment with one another; and a shell having a top plate, a bottom plate and a pair of side plates connected together to define a mating mouth, the shell being mounted rearward to the base body of the insulating housing with the first tongue being located in the mating mouth and the second tongue resisting under the bottom plate, front ends of the pair of side plates being provided with a pair of soldering feet; wherein the Universal Serial Bus connector is perpendicularly mounted to the printed circuit board by means of soldering the soldering tails of the second terminals and the soldering feet of the shell to the printed circuit board and around the mating window, the mating mouth of the Universal Serial Bus connector is communicated with the mating window of the printed circuit board.
