Patent ID: 8066519

Claim:
A USB (Universal Serial Bus) connector mounted on a printed circuit board, comprising: an insulating housing having a base portion, a rear surface of the base portion extending rearward to form an extending portion, two sides of a rear surface of the extending portion defining two receiving cavities, respectively, and penetrating a bottom of the extending portion, two opposite sides of a front surface of the base portion respectively extended frontward to form an inserting portion, a separating wall being formed between two receiving cavities, two side walls being formed outside the respective receiving cavities, a side surface of each inserting portion respectively defining a plurality of terminal grooves passing through the base portion and communicating with the corresponding receiving cavity; a shell enclosing outside of the insulating housing; a plurality of signal terminals respectively having a fixing portion fixed in the terminal groove, a contacting portion extended from a front edge of the fixing portion and exposing out of the side surface of the inserting portion, and a soldering foot extended rearward and then bent downward from a rear edge of the fixing portion and received in the receiving cavity, with a distal end of the soldering foot extending beyond the bottom of the extending portion for being soldered to the printed circuit board, the soldering feet received in the same receiving cavity being substantially in alignment with each other along the extending direction of the extending portion; and a fixing board inserted in bottoms of the receiving cavities of the extending portion, the fixing board having a base board, the base board defining a clipping slot penetrating a front edge thereof and clipping on the separating wall, and two restraining slots at two sides of the clipping slot for constraining the soldering feet of the corresponding signal terminals therein.
