Patent ID: 8721364

Claim:
An electrical connector adapted to a circuit board having a first connection port, the electrical connector comprising: a base provided with a trough formed on one surface of the base, which forms a breach on an adjacent surface of the base, and a first sidewall and a second sidewall located in the trough and opposed to each other, the breach being formed between the first and the second sidewalls; a second connection port disposed on the base; a housing covering the base and the second connection port, wherein the trough of the base and the second connection port are exposed from the housing; and a conductive element comprising a body and a first elastic strip and disposed in the trough of the base, wherein the body penetrates the base and contacts with the housing, one end of the first elastic strip is connected to the body and located adjacent to the first sidewall of the base, and the other end of the first elastic strip extends toward the breach of the base and is capable of reciprocating between the first and the second sidewalls of the base arbitrarily, wherein when the electrical connector is combined with the circuit board, the first connection port of the circuit board is accommodated in the trough of the base and exposed from the breach, the housing is contacted with the circuit board, the second connection port is located above the first connection port, and the first elastic strip of the conductive element is pressed against the first connection port.
