  • FIGS. 1 and 2 illustrate a conventional connector 20.
  • the conventional connector 20 generally includes an insulative housing 28 having a mating portion 22 for cooperatively mating with a mating connector (not shown) and a terminating portion 24 for permitting a solder connection to a cable having a plurality of conductive wires 26, as shown in FIGS. 2 and 3.
  • the insulative housing 28 has a plurality of terminal cavities defined therein. At the terminating portion 24 of the connector, each of the terminal cavities is shaped as a trench 30.
  • the connector 20 further includes a plurality of conductive terminals 32, each of which is disposed in a respective one of the terminal cavities.
  • Each of the terminals 32 has a contact portion 34 located at the mating portion 22 of the housing 28 for conductively mating with the mating connector.
  • Each of the terminals 32 also has a solder tab portion 38 opposite the contact portion 34.
  • the solder tab portion 38 of the terminal 32 is located at the terminating portion 24 of the housing 28, and each of the solder tab portions 38 provides a location for a soldered connection to the respective wire 26.
  • solder tab portions 38 are arranged side-by-side in a common plane in the terminating portion 24 of the conventional connector 20. Additionally, all of the trenches 30 of the conventional connector 20 are open toward a common side of the terminating portion 24.
  • the solder tab portions 38 are spaced from each other at evenly spaced intervals by a distance X1, indicated in FIG. 1.
  • the housing 21 includes a plurality of walls 40 having a thickness X1, each of the walls 40 separating adjacent solder tab portions 38.
  • the trench 30 provides access for soldering the wire 26 to the respective solder tab portion 38 with a soldering tool 42, as illustrated in FIG. 3. More particularly, the soldering tool 42 is brought against the wire 26 to apply heat. When solder is applied, molten solder flows over the wire 26 and solder tab portion 38 within the trench.
  • the separation distance X1 and thickness of the respective wall 40 between adjacent solder tab portions 38 must be sufficiently large to prevent solder from flowing from one of the trenches 30 into the adjacent trench 30 during the soldering operation. If the distance X1 is too small, solder can undesirably flow between adjacent trenches 30, causing a defect such as a short circuit. As a result of the need to keep the distance X1 large between the planar-arranged solder tab portions 38, efforts to miniaturize the connector 20 have been naturally limited.

  • FIGS. 4, 6 and 8 illustrate a connector 50 generally including an insulative housing 52 and a plurality of conductive terminals 54A-D.

  • the adjacently located solder tab portions 82A-D are staggered in height. More particularly, the solder tab portions 82A, 82C corresponding to the openings in the first side 68 are at a first height, and the solder tab portions 82B, 82D corresponding to the openings in the second side 70 are at a second height, the first height being different from the second height by a distance Y, indicated in FIG. 6. Additionally, the contact portions 80 of all of the terminals 54A-D are at a third height.

  • the overhanging edges 96 are dimensioned to prevent the solder tab portions 82A-D from lifting from the trench 76A-D through the opening.
  • the trench could be provided with only one overhanging edge to effectively prevent such lifting.
  • the overhanging edges 96 advantageously help prevent defects, such as a circuit failure or short-circuiting, from a wire breakage at the terminating portion 66 caused by a lifting of the solder tab portions.
  • the terminating portion 66 is shaped to facilitate insertion of the terminals 54A-D into the terminal cavities 74.
  • the terminals 54A, 54D having the respective soldering tab portions 82A, 82D at the first side of the terminating portion 66 insertion is not impeded.

  • solder tab portions of the terminals are arranged on the first side and the remainder of the solder tab portions are arranged on the second side. Accordingly, it is possible to arrange all of the respective solder tabs more closely together in a lateral width direction while keeping a sufficient interval X2 (FIG. 4) between adjacent solder tab portions at the same side of the terminating portion. As a result, the overall width of the terminating portion may be reduced, and the connector 50 enables more miniaturization than could be achieved in previous connectors without incurring defects. Furthermore, since the solder tab portions of the respective terminals may be arranged on both surfaces of the terminating portion, it is possible to provide a connector having a greater number of terminals without substantially increasing the connector width.
  • the connector 100 includes an insulative housing 102 and a plurality of conductive terminals 104.
  • the housing 102 includes a body portion 106 and a mating portion 108 at one end of the body portion 106 for mating with a mating connector (not shown).
  • the connector 100 includes a terminating portion 109 for connection to a cable (not shown) including a plurality of wires 26 (FIGS. 15 and 16).
  • the housing 102 includes a plurality of terminal cavities for holding the respective terminals 104. At a first side 105 of the terminating portion 109, each of the terminal cavities defines a generally V-shaped open trench 110 having two sides 111A, 111B.
  • each of the terminals 104 has a contact portion 112 at the mating portion 108 of the housing 102 for conductively mating with a respective mating connector and a solder tab portion 114 for soldering to a conductive lead.
  • Each of the terminals 104 resides in a respective one of terminal cavities. More particularly, each of the respective solder tab portions 114 is located in a respective one of the V-shaped trenches 110, lying against a surface thereof that is at an acute angle relative to the first side 105 of the terminating portion 109.
  • the slanted orientation of the solder tab portions 114 enables a compact width of the terminating portion 109 of the connector 100. More particularly, the lateral width dimension of each slanted solder tab portion 114 is reduced. Accordingly, the collective widths of the slanted tabs occupy less width, and the terminating portion 109 requires less width than a conventional connector wherein the solder tab portions are oriented in a common plane. Notably, the thickness of the terminating portion 109 is not significantly increased by the slanted arrangement of the solder tab portions 114.
  • a soldering operation is as follows. A wire is positioned against a solder tab portion 114. A tip of a soldering tool is brought into contact against the wire. In typical connectors, the tip of soldering tool is not contacted directly against the solder tab, because the soldering tool is obstructed from contacting the terminal to apply heat. In some connectors, insufficient heating of the terminal results in an inadequate solder joint, causing possible defects such as structural weakness and poor conductivity.
  • the slanted solder tab portions 114 of the connector 100 allow the tip of the soldering tool 42 to contact both the wire 26 and the solder tab portion 114, as shown in FIG.16. This results in directly heating both the solder tab portion 114 and the wire 26, resulting in an effective solder connection.
  • FIGS. 17 and 18 illustrate a further embodiment, showing a connector 200.
  • the connector 200 has a housing 202 having a mating portion 204, a body portion 206, and a terminating portion 208.
  • the housing 202 contains terminal cavities 210 for housing respective conductive terminals 212.
  • the terminal cavities 210 define respective trenches 211 in one side 209 of the terminating portion 208 for housing respective solder tab portions 214 of the terminals 212.
  • Each of the trenches 211 opens to a first side 213 of the terminating portion 208.
  • the housing 202 includes a pair of chamfered surfaces 215 providing a pair of overhanging edges 216 which define the opening to each respective trench 211.
  • the overhanging edges 216 are dimensioned to prevent the solder tab portions 214 from lifting from the trench 211 through the opening.
  • the overhanging edges 216 project into the trench to effectively prevent such lifting, thereby avoiding associated defects.
  • the trenches 211 in one side of the terminating portion 208 occupy less width than the trenches 30 in one side of the terminating portion 24 of the prior art connector 20 shown in FIGS. 1-3.
