Abstract

Abstract A compound type connector comprises an insulating seat, an AV terminal connector, an S terminal connector and a housing. The insulating seat has a first receiving space and a second receiving space at the upper and lower spaces thereof. The AV terminal connector is installed within the first receiving space of the insulating seat. The AV terminal connector has a body. A plurality of terminals are installed within the body, and one end of each terminal protrudes out of the insulating seat. The S terminal connector is installed within the second receiving space. The S terminal connector has a body. The plurality of terminals are installed in the body, while one end of the terminals protrudes out of the insulating seat; and a housing encloses the insulating seat. The housing has at least one shielding surface, the shielding surface having an upper and a lower openings with respect to the AV terminal connector and the S terminal connector. By the aforesaid structure, a compound type connector integrating an AV terminal connector and an S terminal connector is formed.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 4
Claim 1
Independent Claim 320 words
A compound connector comprising: an insulating seat having a first receiving space and a second receiving space respectively disposed at an upper space and a lower space thereof; an AV terminal connector installed within one of the first and second receiving spaces of the insulating seat, the AV terminal connector having a body, a plurality of terminals being installed within the body and arranged in a first configuration, one end of each terminal protruding out of the insulating seat; an S terminal connector installed within the other of the first and second receiving spaces, the S terminal connector having a body, a plurality of terminals being installed in the body and arranged in a second configuration, said second configuration being different than said first configuration, one end of the terminals protrudes out of the insulating seat; a terminal seat coupled to said insulating seat, the terminal seat having a pair of bases each with a plurality of positioning holes formed therethrough for respective passage of the ends of the terminals of the AV terminal connector and the S terminal connector therethrough, the plurality of positioning holes of each of the pair of bases being arranged in a third configuration, the third configuration having a first portion of the plurality of positioning holes aligned with the first configuration of terminals and a second portion of the plurality of positioning holes aligned with the second configuration of terminals; a housing enclosing the insulating seat and the terminal seat, the housing having at least one shielding surface, the shielding surface having an upper opening and a lower opening disposed in respective alignment with a corresponding one of the AV terminal connector and the S terminal connector; and, an elastic grounding member coupled to a lower end of the shielding surface and extending forwardly therefrom, the elastic grounding member having an opening disposed in aligned relationship with the lower opening of the shielding surface.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 320 words
A compound connector comprising: an insulating seat having a first receiving space and a second receiving space respectively disposed at an upper space and a lower space thereof; an AV terminal connector installed within one of the first and second receiving spaces of the insulating seat, the AV terminal connector having a body, a plurality of terminals being installed within the body and arranged in a first configuration, one end of each terminal protruding out of the insulating seat; an S terminal connector installed within the other of the first and second receiving spaces, the S terminal connector having a body, a plurality of terminals being installed in the body and arranged in a second configuration, said second configuration being different than said first configuration, one end of the terminals protrudes out of the insulating seat; a terminal seat coupled to said insulating seat, the terminal seat having a pair of bases each with a plurality of positioning holes formed therethrough for respective passage of the ends of the terminals of the AV terminal connector and the S terminal connector therethrough, the plurality of positioning holes of each of the pair of bases being arranged in a third configuration, the third configuration having a first portion of the plurality of positioning holes aligned with the first configuration of terminals and a second portion of the plurality of positioning holes aligned with the second configuration of terminals; a housing enclosing the insulating seat and the terminal seat, the housing having at least one shielding surface, the shielding surface having an upper opening and a lower opening disposed in respective alignment with a corresponding one of the AV terminal connector and the S terminal connector; and, an elastic grounding member coupled to a lower end of the shielding surface and extending forwardly therefrom, the elastic grounding member having an opening disposed in aligned relationship with the lower opening of the shielding surface.
