Problems solved by technology

[0008] Although the configuration of the terminal 23 of the existing connector 21 is provided for reducing the length between the mating end and the terminating end of the connector, due to their structure, the contact portion 23c of the terminal is different from the side surface of the terminating portion 23b of the terminal. or widthwise offset or spaced to increase the thickness and / or width of the connector, so these terminals also create a number of problems

Embodiment Construction

[0041] Refer to attached figure 1 with 2 , the invention is implemented in an electrical connector 30 for terminating several wires 32 arranged in parallel and having exposed conductors 32a at the distal ends of the wires. The connector includes an insulating housing, generally indicated at 34, which includes a top wall 34a, a bottom wall 34b, and a forwardly projecting mating plug or blade portion 34c with a mating end 34e. To accommodate and support all parallel wires, the enclosure is attached figure 2 The center is elongated widthwise, and an elongated slot or opening 34d is provided in the top wall 34a for receiving the retainer member 36 .

[0042] combined with figure 1 with 2 Referring to FIGS. 3 to 5 , several elongated flat conductive terminals 38 are arranged and installed in the housing 34 . Each terminal includes a rear mounting end 40 for mounting the terminal in the housing, and a flat contact end 42 protruding forward from the mounting end 40 . The termi...

Abstract

An electrical connector is provided for terminating a plurality of electrical cables arranged in parallel and having exposed core conductors at distal ends of the cables. The connector includes a housing which mounts a plurality of elongated, flat plate-like terminals in a generally parallel array. Each terminal includes a rear mounting end for mounting the terminal on the housing and a plate-like contact / termination end projecting forwardly of the mounting end. One flat surface of the plate-like contact / termination end is soldered to the core conductor of a respective one of the electrical cables. An opposite flat surface of the plate-like contact / termination end is exposed for engaging an appropriate contact of a complementary mating connector.

Description

Background of the invention [0001] The present invention relates generally to small size electrical connectors, and more particularly to electrical connectors for connecting several wires to mating connectors mounted on circuit boards. [0002] The consumer market for mobile phones continues to expand. Mobile phones, commonly referred to as "cell phones," now have the ability to send and receive e-mail, connect to the Internet, and take and transmit digital images. [0003] Consumers want their phones to be small so they can be easily carried in a pocket or on a belt, but they also want all of these electronic features in their phones. In order to pack these features into the small form factor of a mobile phone, the features and their associated circuitry, including connectors, must be small. Accordingly, it is desirable to develop connectors of the smallest possible size that provide a reliable connection. Likewise, many cell phones currently in use on the market have a sp...
