Abstract:
A connector with latch protection includes a metal casing, an insulating body, plural metal terminals and a partition. The insulating body covers the interior of the metal casing and has a tab extended forwardly from the front of the insulating body and disposed apart on the top and bottom of the tab respectively, and both sides of the tab corresponding to a connecting plug form an inwardly concave portion, and both sides of the partition have a protection plate corresponding to each inwardly concave portion and the front of the tab and bent and extended forwardly. When the partition is embedded into the insulating body by a molding method, a portion of the two metal protection plates exposed from the tab forms a pair of latch grooves for latching the connecting plug to effectively improve the durability and life and lower the manufacturing cost of the connector significantly.

Claim (Index 1):
A connector with latch protection, for plugging together with a connecting plug to define an electrical and signal connection, comprising:\n a metal casing, having a containing space formed therein, and a support leg separately surrounding the metal casing and used for a fixing purpose, and the support legs being electrically coupled to a circuit board; an insulating body, covering the interior of the metal casing, and having a tab extended forwardly from a front end of the insulating body, a plurality of grooves being formed at top and bottom of the tab and further extended to a rear end of the insulating body, and an inwardly concave portion being disposed separately at both edges of the tab and configured to be corresponsive to the connecting plug; a plurality of metal terminals, each having a front section disposed at the top and bottom of the tab in each of the plurality of grooves to form a first power terminal, and a rear section passing out from a rear end of the insulating body to form a second power terminal; and a partition, made of metal, and having both sides corresponding to each of the inwardly concave portion and integrally formed with a protection plate which extends forwardly, and the partition covering the interior of the insulating body through a molding method to separate the metal terminals at the top and bottom of the tab, and a portion of the two protection plates being embedded into the tab, and a latch groove being formed at a position corresponding to two inwardly concave portions, and a portion of the partition being coupled to the metal casing, so that the metal terminals is free of electromagnetic interference.
