Referring to fig. 7, 8, 14 and 15, the insulating body 20 and the metal shell 41 are first integrally injection-molded into a whole. The annular retaining wall 4122 is retained within the annular retaining groove 26 to stably secure the insulator body 20 within the metal housing 41. The base 21 is held in the second housing space 4120. The boss portion 22 is accommodated in the first accommodation space 4110. A first receiving space 4110 between the periphery of the boss portion 22 and the first inclined surface 4112 is gradually reduced from the front port 4111 to the annular retaining wall 4122 to form a "V" like shape.

The waterproof rubber plate 52 blocks the gap between the metal shell 41 and the base 21 and the socket terminal 30 to achieve a better waterproof effect.
Referring to fig. 5 to 9, the cross arm 441 is abutted against the upper outer surface of the second cylindrical portion 412 and fixed by welding. The side arm 442 partially surrounds the side surface of the second cylinder 412, is downwardly inserted onto the first circuit board 910, and is fixed by soldering to achieve the ground connection with the first circuit board 910. The metal bracket 44 can fix the metal shell 41 holding the insulating body 20 and the socket terminal 30 on the first circuit board 910 and electrically connect the metal shell 41 to the first circuit board 910 through the metal bracket 44, so that the metal shell 41 has a shielding function to protect the socket terminal 30 from signals of other components in an electronic device (not shown).
Referring to fig. 2 to 5, 14 and 15, the first circuit board 910 is then mounted on the mounting wall 42. The pair of mounting projections 423 of the mounting wall 42 pass through the first circuit board 910, respectively. At this time, the front periphery of the first cylindrical portion 411 of the metal shell 41 abuts against the abutting hole 421. The waterproof ring 51 is abutted against the rear end of the mounting hole to seal the gap between the metal shell 41 and the butt-joint hole 421, so as to achieve the waterproof purpose. The first magnetic element 431 and the second magnetic element 432 are respectively mounted on the first circuit board 910 and located on the left and right sides of the metal housing 41.
