Abstract

Abstract A connector for reducing electromagnetic interference includes a top shielded cover, a bottom shielded cover, a positioning mechanism and a transmit slice. Both of the top shielded cover and the bottom shielded cover are engaged with each other. The positioning mechanism includes a pair of transmit slices and lock members. The lock members lie on the top of the top shielded cover. The side of the bottom shielded cover is inserted between the lock member and the side of the top shielded cover. The transmit slice is a cantilever slice which is located at the side of the top shielded cover.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 10
Claim 1
Independent Claim 201 words
A connector for reducing electromagnetic interference comprising: a plastic cover including an inner cover, a top cover and a bottom cover which is engaged with the top cover; a top shielded cover being firmly received between the inner cover and the top cover; a bottom shielded cover being firmly received between the inner cover and the bottom cover; a plurality of terminals being arranged within the inner cover; a ground mechanism connecting to the top and bottom shielded covers, so that both of the top shielded cover and the bottom shielded cover are under ground contact status; and a positioning mechanism including a plurality of transmit slices and a plurality of lock members which are formed at both sides of each transmit slice; the transmit slice being a cantilever slice which is located at the side of the top shielded cover, one end of the transmit slice being a fixed end and the other being a free end; a circular bulge section being projected from the transmit slice; the lock members lying on the top of the top shielded cover and downwardly inclining so that the bottom shielded cover is firmly engaged between the top shielded cover and the lock members.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 201 words
A connector for reducing electromagnetic interference comprising: a plastic cover including an inner cover, a top cover and a bottom cover which is engaged with the top cover; a top shielded cover being firmly received between the inner cover and the top cover; a bottom shielded cover being firmly received between the inner cover and the bottom cover; a plurality of terminals being arranged within the inner cover; a ground mechanism connecting to the top and bottom shielded covers, so that both of the top shielded cover and the bottom shielded cover are under ground contact status; and a positioning mechanism including a plurality of transmit slices and a plurality of lock members which are formed at both sides of each transmit slice; the transmit slice being a cantilever slice which is located at the side of the top shielded cover, one end of the transmit slice being a fixed end and the other being a free end; a circular bulge section being projected from the transmit slice; the lock members lying on the top of the top shielded cover and downwardly inclining so that the bottom shielded cover is firmly engaged between the top shielded cover and the lock members.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 50 words
