Patent ID: 7722393

Claim:
A battery connector adapted for being electrically connected with a printed circuit board, comprising: an insulating housing defining a plurality of terminal passageways passing through a top surface and a bottom surface thereof and extending longitudinally; a plurality of fixing members fastened in the insulating housing and stretching beyond the top surface of the insulating housing for being soldered to the printed circuit board; and a plurality of electrical terminals disposed in the corresponding terminal passageways, each of the electrical terminals having a fixing board disposed vertically, a first contact portion stretching out of the bottom surface of the insulating housing, and a substantially lying-V shaped second elastic portion extended from a top of the fixing board, a free end of the second elastic portion stretching out of the top surface of the insulating housing and being arched upward to form a second contact portion capable of elastically abutting against the printed circuit board, the insulating housing having two side surfaces and a rear surface, a top front of each side surface protruding outward to form a first fixing block, a top of the rear surface protruding rearward to form two second fixing blocks apart from each other, each of the first and second fixing blocks defining a fixing aperture for fastening the corresponding fixing member therein, the first and second fixing blocks extend beyond the top surface of the insulating housing, two top ends of the first fixing blocks further extend face-to-face to form a pair of preventing boards, two guiding channels are accordingly formed between the preventing boards and the top surface, the battery connector further comprises a T-shaped preloading board movably disposed on the top surface of the insulating housing and further between the second fixing blocks.
