Referring to fig. 6, the first contact portion 221 contacts the upper shield 7 downward, so that the first elastic arm 22 applies a downward acting force to the mating part 200, and transmits the acting force to the insulating housing 1 through the mating part 200, and since the insulating housing 1 is mounted downward to the circuit board 300, the circuit board 300 located below the insulating housing 1 provides an upward supporting force to the insulating housing 1, and the upward supporting force and the acting force applied by the first elastic arm 22 cancel each other, so that the insulating housing 1 is prevented from deforming, and the service life of the electrical connector 100 is prolonged.
In summary, the electrical connector of the present invention has the following advantages:
1. the metal housing 5 has the first ground part 54 contacting the upper shield 7 of the mating part 200, and also has the second ground part 55 and the third ground part 56 contacting the ground terminal 2, so that a ground path is formed between the electrical connector 100 and the mating part 200; meanwhile, the grounding terminal 2 and the metal shell 5 form multipoint grounding, so that the contact area and the contact range are increased, the shielding capability of the grounding terminal 2 and the metal shell 5 on the signal terminal 3 is improved, the high-frequency performance of the electric connector 100 is enhanced, and the electric connector meets higher use requirements.
2. After the metal shell 5 is mounted on the insulating body 1, the first grounding portion 54 abuts downward against the upper shield 7, and the second grounding portion 55 abuts downward against the grounding terminal 2, so that the metal shell 5 is subjected to a plurality of upward acting forces, and the rear end of the metal shell 5 and the insulating body 1 are fixed to each other by inserting the plurality of fixing portions 57 into the plurality of fixing grooves 124 in a backward corresponding manner. The situation that the metal shell 5 is warped due to upward acting force is avoided, so that the metal shell 5 can be stably installed on the insulating body 1.
3. The ground terminal 2 is provided with the first elastic arm 22 and the second elastic arm 23 located on the same side of the docking piece 200, the first contact portion 221 abuts against the upper shield 7 downward, the second contact portion 231 contacts the ground conductive sheet 61, and the first contact portion 221 is located in front of the second contact portion 231. The first elastic arm 22 exerts a force downwards on the butting part 20, and transmits the force to the insulating body 1 through the butting part 200, and since the insulating body 1 is mounted downwards on the circuit board 300, the circuit board 300 positioned below the insulating body 1 provides an upward supporting force to the insulating body 1, and the upward supporting force and the force exerted by the first elastic arm 22 are mutually offset, so that the insulating body 1 is prevented from deforming, and the service life of the electrical connector 100 is prolonged.
The above detailed description is only for the purpose of illustrating the preferred embodiments of the present invention, and not for the purpose of limiting the scope of the present invention, therefore, all technical changes that can be made by applying the present specification and the drawings are included in the scope of the present invention.
