A method of manufacturing an electrical connector includes: providing a metal plate, and cutting the metal plate to form multiple base portions and pre-soldering areas; providing multiple conductive members, and soldering the conductive members to the pre-soldering areas; cutting and forming multiple elastic arms correspondingly according to locations of the conductive members in the pre-soldering areas as references, where a conductive terminal includes a base portion, at least one elastic arm and at least one conductive member; forming an insulating body on the conductive terminals by insert-molding, where the elastic arms and the conductive members are exposed from the insulating body; and forming the conductive terminals by cutting, where at least some of the conductive terminals are separated from each other and are not in contact with each other. The first electronic component and the second electronic component abut the elastic arms and the conductive members to deform and move.

An electronic card connector, defining an insertion direction, an ejection direction, and a transverse direction perpendicular to the insertion direction, includes an insulative housing and a number of terminals retained in the insulative housing. The terminals include a row of first contacts disposed along the insertion direction. Each first contact has a first affixed portion and a first contacting portion located at a peak therein. Each of the first contacts extends along the transverse direction. The first contacting portions of the neighboring first contacts are located offset along the insertion direction. The first contacting portions and associated first affixed portions of the first contacts are distanced differently in the transverse direction.

A plug contact stamped from a strip of sheet metal, the plug contact including cut edges and rolled sides; a clamping section configured to fix the plug contact in a contact carrier; a contact fork formed by two spring elastic contact arms forming a receiving cavity between each other and including cut edges that are oriented towards each other, wherein a first end of the two spring elastic contact arms respectively originates from the clamping section and a second end of the two spring elastic contact arms respectively forms a contact bud, wherein the two spring elastic contact arms include rolled sides that are oriented towards each other and produced by forming the second end of the spring elastic contact arms respectively.

A card connector, a card holder, and a terminal device, where the card connector includes a plurality of first terminals and one or more second terminals. The first terminals are arranged to form a first card access area that installs a first card, and the first terminals are configured to be electrically coupled to the first card. The one or more second terminals are distributed on a periphery of the first card access area, the first terminals and the one or more second terminals form a second card access area that installs a second card, and the first terminals and the one or more second terminals are configured to be electrically coupled to the second card.

An electrical terminal includes a base, a first elastic arm and a second elastic arm formed side by side by extending upwardly from an upper end of the base, and a protruding portion. The first elastic arm has a mating portion, and the second elastic arm has a contact portion. The protruding portion protrudes and extends from a first side of the first elastic arm, and the first side of the first elastic arm is adjacent to the second elastic arm. A lower surface of the protruding portion has a contact surface overlapping with the contact portion in a vertical direction, such that the contact portion upwardly abuts the contact surface. When the chip module presses downwardly on the electrical terminal, the contact portion can move on the contact surface, such that the chip module does not need to press downwardly on the contact portion with a relatively large pressure.

An electrical connecting device having a main body and a displacement body mounted in a linearly movable manner relative to one another in a longitudinal direction. The main body has a cavity that accommodates a longitudinal section of the displacement body or vice versa. The length of the longitudinal section accommodated in the cavity is variable by a relative longitudinal movement of the main body and the displacement body. The main body has conductor tracks extending in the longitudinal direction and insulated from one another. The displacement body has sliding elements insulated from one another and resting on and electrically contacting a contact surface of a respective one of the conductor tracks. The conductor tracks are arranged on a main body surface of the main body. The main body surface is round in a cross-sectional plane perpendicular to the longitudinal direction or is formed by a plurality of surface sections angled in relation to one another. The sliding elements project from a displacement body surface of the displacement body. The displacement body surface is round in the cross-sectional plane or is formed by a plurality of surface sections angled in relation to one another. The contact surfaces of at least two of the conductor tracks are angled in relation to one another.

A power outlet, and associated method, for an electrical power supply strip. The power outlet includes a housing, an electrical connection for receiving first electrical power type, electrical components to change the first electrical power type to a second electrical power type, and a connection interface to supplying the second electrical power type. The power outlet housing has a body with a shape that corresponds to a shaped aperture of a main housing of the strip. A front portion of the power outlet housing is larger than the shaped aperture. An elastically deformable arm extends from the body and deforms as the arm passes through the shaped aperture of the main housing. An engagement portion of the arm retains the power outlet housing relative to the main housing.

[Object] To provide a contact that can hold down effects caused by solder, even if an elastic contacting portion is extending from a location contacting a first member. [Solving means] The contact includes a base portion, an elastic contacting portion and a gap forming portion. The base portion is configured solderable on a component mounting surface of the first member. The elastic contacting portion is configured elastically deformable and relatively swingable with respect to the base portion, and when contacting a contacted surface of the second member, is configured to elastically deform to be in pressurized contact with the contacted surface. In the gap forming portion, a concave portion is provided between a first end portion and a second end portion, and is configured to have a gap between the concave portion and the component mounting surface when the base portion is soldered on the component mounting surface in a state in which the concave portion and the component mounting surface are oriented in directions facing each other.

An operating member (11) includes a plate-like arm (37) configured to cover an outer surface of a housing (10) and is displaceable to an initial position and a connection position. A resilient piece (48) is provided on an outer edge of the arm (37) and projects along a plate surface of the arm (37). The resilient piece (48) restricts a displacement of the operating member (11) from the initial position to the connection position by resiliently locking a lock receiving portion (32) while being unlocked from the lock receiving portion (32) by being pressed by an unlocking portion (15) of a mating housing (12) and allowing displacement of the operating member (11) to the connection position. The resilient piece (48) is shaped to be delectable and deformable in a direction along the plate surface of the arm portion (37) when being pressed by the unlocking portion (15).

A connector comprises a connector face, a latch, and a CPA receiving space. A plurality of contact receiving spaces of the connector are open to the connector face. The latch engages a mating connector when the connector is inserted into the mating connector along an insertion direction. The CPA receiving space is disposed adjacent an inner side of the latch and receives a position securing member. At least one contact receiving space is disposed between the connector face and the CPA receiving space.
