It is aimed to reduce friction resistance generated in a resilient contact portion. A shield connector is provided with a dielectric for accommodating an inner conductor, a tubular outer conductor for surrounding the dielectric, a resilient contact portion formed in the outer conductor, and a cut portion formed in the outer conductor and enabling a supporting portion supporting the resilient contact portion, out of the outer conductor, to be resiliently deformed. If the resilient contact portion contacts a mating outer conductor and is resiliently deformed, the supporting portion supporting the resilient contact portion is resiliently deformed by a reaction force from the mating outer conductor. Since a resilient deformation amount of the resilient contact portion is reduced by as much as the supporting portion is resiliently deformed, friction resistance generated in the resilient contact portion is reduced.

A rotary plug electrical connector includes a plug and a socket, both of which include power contacts and signal contacts. The plug is rotatable within the socket between operable and inoperable positions. The power contacts of the socket include opposed surfaces which are engaged by resilient blade power contacts of the plug. The signal contact of the socket preferably includes a pair of contacts, and the signal contact of the plug preferably is a bridge contact that engages the socket signal contacts in the operable position and disengages the socket signal contacts in the inoperable position. When the signal contacts are disengaged, no power is transferred by the connector.

A magnetic connector includes a first insulating housing, a printed circuit board, a plurality of magnetic bodies, a plurality of terminals and a second insulating housing. The first insulating housing has a bottom wall, a side wall, a recess being defined between the bottom wall and the side wall. The printed circuit board is received in the recess. The magnetic bodies are mounted to the printed circuit board. The terminals are mounted to the printed circuit board. The second insulating housing is mounted to the top of the first insulating housing and is covered the recess. The magnetic bodies and the terminals are exposed from a top surface of the second insulating housing. As described above, the magnetic bodies are mounted to the printed circuit board, and then the magnetic bodies are magnetized. Hence, manufacture cost of the magnetic connector is saved.

The present invention provides a combined power socket for artificial trees. The combined power socket includes a first socket and a second socket which are capable of supplying control signals to light strings on the artificial trees in addition to power supply, thus can realize the intelligent control of light strings. Furthermore, the first socket and a second socket can be connected in two directions without considering the positive and negative poles of the power supply. The product assembly is simpler and more convenient.
