Miniature shielded connector with elbow contact shafts
First Claim
1. A connector having a series of metal contact shafts (1) spaced and bent into an elbow, embedded in an electrically insulating material (2), which is itself surrounded by a metal shielding (3), characterized in that the shielding (3) is made up of two superposed metal blocks (4a, 4b) having elbow channels (5a, 5b, 5c;
- 6a, 6b, 6c) on their contacting faces, these channels taking up the shafts (1) surrounded by the electrically insulating material (2), these channels being formed in such a way that the shielding (3) directly between the shafts (1) is interrupted in one rectilinear part of the elbow formed by the channels, this interrupting of shielding placing the insulating material (2) surrounding the contact shafts (1) in contact with the shielding (3) without creating any empty space in zones (7a, 7b) where the shielding is interrupted.

Abstract
The connector comprises a series of metal contact shafts (1) spaced and bent into elbow configurations, embedded in an electrically insulating material (2) which is itself surrounded by a metal shielding (3). Electrically insulating material (2) is molded around contact shafts (1), shielding (3) is made up of two superposed metal blocks (4a) having on their contacting surfaces elbow channels (5a, 5b, 5c) taking up contact shafts (1) surrounded by electrically insulating material (2), these channels being formed so that shielding (3) is interrupted in one rectilinear part of the elbow formed by the channels, this interruption of shielding placing in contact insulating material (2) surrounding the contact shafts, without creating any empty space in zones (7a, 7b) where the shielding is interrupted.

10. An electrical connector comprising:
-
electrical contacts spaced relative to each other and having a bent elbow shape; electrical insulation on the contacts and forming connecting sections between the contacts to connect the contacts to each other; and electrical shielding comprising two blocks forming elbow shaped channels with the contacts and electrical insulation being located in the channels, wherein the blocks form recesses between adjacent ones of the channels that receive the connecting sections of the electrical insulation and wherein shielding is not provided by the electrical shielding directly between the electrical contacts at the recesses.
