ELECTRICAL CONNECTOR AND ASSEMBLING METHOD THEREOF
First Claim
1. An electrical connector, comprising:
- a dielectric housing having an upper face and a lower face opposite to the upper face, the upper face being provided with a plurality of terminal slots and recesses;
a plurality of conductive terminals received in the corresponding terminal slots of the dielectric housing, each of the conductive terminals having a contact portion, a base portion, and an engaged portion, the contact portion arranged at a front part of the dielectric housing, the base portion arranged at a rear part of the dielectric housing, the engaged portion connecting with the base portion and being engaged against the corresponding recess;
a fixing strip being transversally disposed on the upper face of the dielectric housing and across the conductive terminals and the terminal slots for securing the conductive terminals in the terminal slots;
a plurality of wires respectively connecting with the base portions of the conductive terminals, andan upper shell assembled on the dielectric housing above the fixing strip.
