Patent ID: 7922543

Claim:
An audio jack connector adapted for mating with a plug connector, the audio jack connector comprising: a dielectric housing defining an inserting hole; a movable member movably accommodated in the dielectric housing, and aligned with the inserting hole; a rotation member rotatably received in the dielectric housing, a plurality of elastic protrusions protruding from one end of the rotation member, a plurality of recessed portions being formed between every two protrusions; at least one first switch terminal pivotably mounted in the dielectric housing, one end of each of the at least one first switch terminal adjacent to the movable member comprising two sub-switch terminals which respectively comprise a prong, and an opposite end of the first switch terminal being received in one of the recessed portions; at least one second switch terminal pivotably mounted in the dielectric housing, one end of each of the at least one second switch terminal adjacent to the movable member comprising a prong, an opposite end of each of the at least one second switch terminal being received in one of the recessed portions; wherein when the plug connector is inserted into the inserting hole, and pushes the movable member to move, the rotation member is driven to rotate by the movable member, which drives the ends of the at least one first switch terminals and the at least one second switch terminal to move from the recessed portions to the protrusions to rotate the at least one first switch terminal and the at least one second switch terminal, causing the prongs of the at least one first switch terminal and the at least one second switch terminal to stay contact with the plug connector.
