Patent ID: 8182288

Claim:
A probe connector, comprising: an insulating housing having a base body of which a top surface protrudes upward to form a plurality of inserting pillars spaced from one another, each of the inserting pillars defining an inserting hole extending vertically to penetrate through a top thereof, a bottom of the base body defining a plurality of fixing holes each aligned with one of the inserting holes and extending vertically to be connected with a bottom of the corresponding inserting hole; a plurality of probe pins inserted upward in the inserting holes of the insulating housing through the corresponding fixing holes respectively, with a top end of the probe pin further projecting out of the inserting hole; and a shielding body made of metal and defining a plurality of inserting openings each extending vertically to penetrate through the shielding body, the inserting openings being arranged in accordance with the inserting pillars of the insulating housing and each having a substantially same diameter as the diameter of the inserting pillar, the inserting pillars each being inserted in one of the inserting openings of the shielding body with the top end of the probe pin stretching in the corresponding inserting opening so that each of the probe pins is enclosed by the shielding body to make the probe pins separated from one another by the shielding body wherein the probe pin includes a barrel and a plunger movably inserted in the barrel and further projecting out of a top end of the barrel, the barrel is fastened in the fixing hole, and the plunger is inserted in the inserting hole with a top end thereof projecting out of the inserting hole, a bottom side of the barrel extends downward to form a soldering portion projecting under the base body, the fixing hole of the insulating housing has a greater diameter than the diameter of the inserting hole, a ring-shaped blocking slope is formed at the connection of the fixing hole and the corresponding inserting hole, and a periphery of the top end of the barrel resists against the blocking slope.
