ELECTRICAL CONNECTOR
First Claim
1. An electrical connector, installed on a circuit board and matchable with an external electrical connector, the electrical connector comprising:
- an insulation pedestal, comprising;
a main body being a plastic base; and
a tongue section being a plastic flat piece raised on the main body;
a plurality of terminals being long narrow metal strips with their middle sections partially embedded in the insulation pedestal, one end of the terminal being exposed on the surface of the tongue section for electrically inserting the external electrical connector, the other end of the terminal penetrating out of the insulation pedestal and extending outwards to be welded on the circuit board;
an outer cover being hollow and tubular with its two ends open, one end of the outer cover adaptive to match and connect with the external electrical connector, and the other end of the outer cover adaptive to sheathe outside of the insulation pedestal; and
an enhanced shell being a flat metal shell piece, partially embedded in the main body and partially covering on the tongue section to support the tongue section.

Abstract
An electrical connector includes an insulation pedestal, an outer cover, an enhanced shell and a plurality of terminals partially embedded in the insulation pedestal. The insulation pedestal includes a main body and a tongue section. The enhanced shell includes a fixed side and a support side. The fixed side is embedded in the main body; and the tongue section is partially covered by the support side such that the support side can support the tongue section. The insulation pedestal is integratedly formed together with the terminals and the enhanced shell to strengthen the structure of the tongue section.

7. An electrical connector, installed on a circuit board and matchable with an external electrical connector, the electrical connector comprising:
-
an insulation pedestal, comprising; a main body being a plastic base; and a tongue section being a plastic flat piece raised on the main body; and a plurality of terminals being long narrow metal strips aligned in parallel with their middle sections partially embedded in the insulation pedestal, one end of the terminal being exposed on the surface of the tongue section for electrically inserting the external electrical connector, the other end of the terminal penetrating out of the insulation pedestal and extending outwards to be welded on the circuit board, the terminals comprising; two strengthened terminals, being the two outer ones of the parallel terminals, each of the strengthened terminals having an outer side raising a width as a strengthened section, wherein the strengthened section is bended in an angle to strengthen the tongue section in a thickness direction. - View Dependent Claims (8, 9, 10, 11, 12)
