Patent attributes
An electrical connector for mounting on a printed circuit board, comprising: an insulating housing defining a first mating face and a second mating face adjacent to each other, and a top surface opposite to the second mating face, a plurality of passages extending from the second mating face toward the top surface and communicating with the first mating face, an imaginary central line extending through the top surface of the housing along lengthwise direction. A plurality of contact terminals received in the passages and each including a mounting portion securely positioned within the corresponding passage, each contact terminals including a contacting point extending from the mounting portion and out of the first mating surface, and a terminating end portion extending also from the mounting portion and away from the passage. A bracket attached to the body for securing the housing onto a printed circuit board, having a body portion pressing against the top surface of the housing, a strengthening tab extending transversely along an edge of the body portion and across over the imaginary line of the top surface effectively reducing tilting of the connector when mated with a battery.
