Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

An electric connector includes an insulation body, a shielding shell, first and second conductive terminals, and an organizer. The insulation body has a base portion and a tongue portion extended horizontally forward from the base portion. The shielding shell encloses the insulation body. Each first or second conductive terminal has a retaining section fixedly located in the insulation body, a contact section extended forward from the retaining section and located on the tongue portion, and a soldering section bent upward from the retaining section and extended outside the base portion. The organizer located on the base portion has an elongate slot and apertures that penetrate the base portion. The elongate slot allows the soldering sections of the first conductive terminals to pass through and anchor therein. Each aperture allows the soldering section of each second conductive terminal to pass through and anchor therein.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

We claim: 1. An electric connector comprising: an insulation body including a base portion and a tongue portion extended horizontally forward from the base portion; a shielding shell enclosing the insulation body and collaborating with the tongue portion to form a coupling space to house a coupling electric connector; a plurality of first conductive terminals and second conductive terminals that have respectively a retaining section, a contact section and a soldering section, with the retaining section fixedly located in the insulation body, with the contact section extended forward from the retaining section into the coupling space and located on the tongue portion, with the soldering section bent upward from the retaining section and extended outside the base portion; and an organizer located on the base portion and including a first elongate slot and a plurality of first apertures, with the first elongate slot and each first aperture penetrating the organizer, with the first elongate slot allowing the soldering sections of the first conductive terminals to pass through and anchor therein, with each first aperture allowing the soldering section of one second conductive terminal to pass through and anchor therein, wherein the first elongate slot includes a front inner wall and a rear inner wall opposing the front inner wall, with the front inner wall and/or the rear inner wall having a plurality of ribs formed thereon. 2. The electric connector of claim 1 , wherein the front inner wall or the rear inner wall where no ribs are formed has a plurality of troughs formed thereon, with each trough penetrating the organizer. 3. An electric connector comprising: an insulation body including a base portion and a tongue portion extended horizontally forward from the base portion; a shielding shell enclosing the insulation body and collaborating with the tongue portion to form a coupling space to house a coupling electric connector; a plurality of first conductive terminals and second conductive terminals that have respectively a retaining section, a contact section and a soldering section, with the retaining section fixedly located in the insulation body, with the contact section extended forward from the retaining section into the coupling space and located on the tongue portion, with the soldering section bent upward from the retaining section and extended outside the base portion; and an organizer located on the base portion and including a first elongate slot and a plurality of first apertures, with the first elongate slot and each first aperture penetrating the organizer, with the first elongate slot allowing the soldering sections of the first conductive terminals to pass through and anchor therein, with each first aperture allowing the soldering section of one second conductive terminal to pass through and anchor therein, wherein the first elongate slot has a front inner wall and a rear inner wall opposing the front inner wall, with the front inner wall and/or the rear inner wall having a plurality of troughs formed thereon, and with each trough penetrating the organizer. 4. An electric connector comprising: an insulation body including a base portion and a tongue portion extended horizontally forward from the base portion; a shielding shell enclosing the insulation body and collaborating with the tongue portion to form a coupling space to house a coupling electric connector; a plurality of first conductive terminals and second conductive terminals that have respectively a retaining section, a contact section and a soldering section, with the retaining section fixedly located in the insulation body, with the contact section extended forward from the retaining section into the coupling space and located on the tongue portion, with the soldering section bent upward from the retaining section and extended outside the base portion; and an organizer located on the base portion and including a first elongate slot and a plurality of first apertures, with the first elongate slot and each first aperture penetrating the organizer, with the first elongate slot allowing the soldering sections of the first conductive terminals to pass through and anchor therein, with each first aperture allowing the soldering section of one second conductive terminal to pass through and anchor therein, wherein the plurality of first conductive terminals include a plurality of signal conductive terminals and a ground conductive terminal, with the first elongate slot comprising a plurality of T-shaped trenches and a second aperture, with each T-shaped trench having a second elongate slot and a notch communicating with the second elongate slot, with each second elongate slot, each notch and the second aperture penetrating the organizer, with each T-shaped trench allowing the soldering section of each signal conductive terminal to pass through and anchor therein, and with the second aperture allowing the soldering section of the ground conductive terminal to pass through and anchor therein. 5. The electric connector of claim 4 , wherein the organizer has a front wall and a rear wall opposing the front wall, with the plurality of T-shaped trenches and the second aperture located in front of the first apertures, and with each notch cutting through the front wall. 6. The electric connector of claim 4 , wherein the organizer has a front wall and a rear wall opposing the front wall, with the plurality of T-shaped trenches and the second aperture located behind the first apertures, and with each notch cutting through the rear wall.
