Definitions

  • the present invention relates to an electrical connector for mounting to a circuit board and to a metal shield therefor.
  • U.S. Patent No. 5,037,330 discloses a right angle electrical connector having a metal shield having side walls from which project struck out flanges which engage in external grooves in insulating housings of the connector which are received within the shield. With the bowed mounting feet project from bottom edges of the shield side walls for insertion through holes in a circuit board to retain the connector thereon.
  • the electrical connector of the above construction has the following advantages.
  • the metal shield covers the entirety of the upper and lower electrical connector bodies while providing a pair of mounting legs for ready assembly. Additionally, the shield has detent members which provide a stable structural connection to the electrical connectors.
  • the electrical connector having the above construction has the following disadvantages.
  • the connector lacks board mounts on the bottom electrical connector and is therefore not firmly retained in place until the metal shield covers it. Further, the metal shield's mounting legs do not firmly fix the electrical connector to the printed circuit board because they have only one leg each. Additionally, the single leg design has the chance of being bent or otherwise damaged.
  • the instant invention overcomes the above-mentioned problems.
  • the object of the present invention is to provide a multi-leg board lock which firmly fixes the connector assembly to a printed circuit board. Further, the shield's legs are soldered to the board lock in a way that eliminates the need for another hole in the printed circuit board.
  • an electrical connector for mounting on a circuit board and includes a housing having a bottom wall with a bottom face for engaging against the circuit board, the bottom wall having formed therein a through bore opening into said bottom face.
  • a hollow board lock supported in the through bore has locking legs projecting below the bottom face for insertion in a first hole in the circuit board.
  • a header in the housing carries electrical terminals with terminal legs thereof projecting from the header and terminating in soldering tails depending below the bottom face of the housing for insertion into second holes in the circuit board with the bottom face of the housing engaging it.
  • a metal shield covering the terminal legs has depending therefrom a grounding tab projecting through the board lock and between the locking legs thereof.
  • the board lock and the soldering tails are soldered to respective ground and signal conductors on the underside of the board.
  • the grounding tab which projects between the locking legs of the board lock, is soldered to the same grounding conductor.
  • the drilling program for the board is thereby simplified and lining metal is saved.
  • the board lock serves to protect the grounding tab from stubbing against the board when the connector is being mounted thereto, or the grounding tab being otherwise damaged when the connector is being handled.
  • the bores for the board locks may be formed in spaced, rudimentary bottom walls of the housing, the housing having a top wall and the shield having a top flap resiliently engaging beneath the top wall of the housing whereby the side walls of the shield, from which the grounding tabs project, are resilient urged against said bottom walls of the housing.
  • the shield may be received between side walls projecting from a front wall of the housing in which the header is fixed, a side wall of the shield having latching tongues engaged in grooves in the housing side walls.
  • the shield is moved down vertically between the side walls, so that the grounding tabs enter the board locks and the latching tongues engage the grooves, the flap being resiliently depressed and located beneath the top wall of the housing.
  • the grounding tabs are offset inwardly from the side walls of the shield.
  • a right angle electrical connector for mounting on a circuit board comprises a die-cast metal housing having a front wall formed with upper and lower through openings. Side walls project from opposite lateral ends of the front wall rearwardly thereof, board engaging bottom walls extending towards each other from inner faces of the side walls. Projections depend from the bottom walls for electrically connecting the diecast metal housing to ground by way of the circuit board.
  • a first drawn metal shell defining a through aperture is secured in the upper through opening of the metal housing and a second drawn metal shell is secured in the lower through opening of the metal housing.
  • a first insulating header is received in the aperture of the first drawn shell and a second insulating header is received in the aperture of the second drawn shell.
  • Each header has a mating face exposed in the forward direction of the housing front wall and a terminal receiving face directed rearwardly of the housing front wall.
  • the first header comprises a first group of electrical terminals, the second header comprising a second group of electrical terminals.
  • Each terminal has a mating portion within the header which is exposed towards the mating face of the header, a terminal leg projecting obliquely downwardly and rearwardly beyond the terminal receiving face of the header and between the housing side walls and a soldering tail projecting downwardly below the bottom walls of the housing.
  • the solder tails of the terminals of each group of terminals are arranged in at least one row, all of said rows being parallel.
  • a shielded, stacked, right angle, electrical connector 1, for mounting on a circuit board PCB, is shown in the exploded perspective view of Figure 1.
  • the connector which may be used in the computer field as an input/output port, comprises a die cast metal housing 2, receiving upper and lower drawn metal shells 4 and 6 respectively, the shells 4 and 6 receiving insulating upper and lower header inserts 8 and 10, respectively, the inserts 8 and 10, in turn receiving upper and lower groups 12 and 14, respectively of an array of electrical terminals.

  • the housing 2 also has a rudimentary forward top wall 32 extending rearwardly from the upper end of the front wall 20 and spanning the side walls 22.
  • Each edge 24 is joined to the top wall 32 at a short, horizontal top edge 33.
  • the front wall 20 is formed with a pair of spaced keys 36 cast therein or threadably securable thereto with key 36 being representative of both versions, near its upper end, each key 36 being located proximate to a respective side wall 22. Below each key 36 the front wall 20 is formed with threaded screw-locks 38. The keys 36 and the screw-locks 38 are provided for cooperation with complimentary key-ways and jack screws, respectively, of an electrical connector (not shown) for mating with the connector 1.
  • Keys 36 may have a threaded shank receivable in a threaded aperture in front wall 20 or may be cast into housing 2. Keys 36 project forwardly of wall 20 and have a keying rib 87 thereon. Typically the keys are provided in pairs with the rib 87 on each key 36 oriented in the coordinated directions. The rib 87 may take on other angular positions. Typical positions are at equal angular orientations such as vertically as shown, both laterally outwardly - the rib on the left key to the left and the rib on the right key to the right -, and both vertically downward. The central bore of the key may be threaded to receive a jackscrew. The same structure as key 36, without rib 87, forms a screwlock.

  • the drawn shells 4 and 6, which are constructed according to the teach of U.S. Patent No. 4,808,125 which is hereby incorporated herein by reference, are secured in the openings 35 and 133 respectively, according to the teaching of that U.S. Patent. In this manner, both shells 4 and 6 are electrically commoned with housing 2.
  • a shielded mating connector engaging either shell 4 or 6 is grounded to a circuit board on which connector 1 is mounted through housing 2 and boardlock 41 to a ground trace on the circuit board.
  • the headers 8 and 10 are secured in the shells 4 and 6, respectively, also in the manner taught by U.S. Patent No. 4,808,125.
  • Each header 8 and 10 has an upper row of terminal receiving, through cavities 46. Each cavity 44 and 46 opens into a front mating face 48, and a rear terminal receiving face 50, of the respective header 8 and 10.
  • the terminal tail spacer place 16 is constructed according to the teaching of U.S. Patent Application Serial No. 757,086 filed on September 10, 1991, and which is hereby incorporated herein by reference.

  • Each sidewall 80 may have a lateral positioning window 97 (shown in Figures 9, 13 and 14) to prevent lateral movement of shield 18 in housing 2 prior to soldering.
  • the window engages the inner surface of sidewalls 22 to prevent the lateral motion, and concomitantly provide additional points of electrical continuity therebetween.
  • the side walls 80 have bottom edges 96. Each side wall 80 has, proximate to its bottom edge 96, a pair of struck out, outwardly and upwardly inclined, latching tongues 98. Between its tongues 98, each side wall 80 has a central, flat, grounding tab 100, connected to the edge 96 of the wall 80 by a horizontal strap 102 normally thereof. Each tab 100 is thereby offset inwardly of the respective wall 80 in parallel relationship therewith. There may depend from the bottom edge 91 of the wall portion 88 pair of further flat grounding tabs 104, which are coplanar therewith and the planes of which extend at right angles with those of the tabs 100. The free ends of the tabs 104 may lie below those of the tabs 100.
  • the shield 18 In order to mount the shield 18, to the partially completed connector shown in Figure 3, the shield 18 is moved down vertically with its tabs 100 and 104 leading, into the die-cast metal housing 2, so that the latching tongues 98 on each side wall 80 of the shield 18 are initially pressed inwardly and then resile outwardly to latch into respective grooves 42 in the side walls 22 of the housing 2.

  • each tab 100 thereof projects through the annular strap of a respective one of the board locks 41, and extends between the locking legs 37 thereof, as best seen in Figure 10.
  • the resilient engagement of the flap 84 against the top wall 32 urges the bottom edge 96 of the shield 18 down against the bottom walls 30.
  • the complete connector 1 is shown in Figures 2, and 4 to 6.
  • the circuit board PCB ( Figure 2) upon which the assembly 1 is to be surface mounted, has provided therein an array of smaller, plated through holes H1 for receiving the terminal tails 78, two larger, plated through holes H2 for receiving the board locks 41, two further, plated through holes H3 for receiving the tabs 104, four further through, unplated holes H4 for receiving the mounting protrusions 43 of the housing 2.
  • shield 18 When shield 18 has as many tabs 100 (or 104) as the connector has boardlocks, there are no additional through holes required solely to accommodate additional shield grounding tabs. When shield 18 has more tabs 100 (or 104) than boardlocks, the number of through holes required can be minimized by having at least some of the through holes perform a dual function of providing a boardlocking function, and possibly concomitantly grounding through the boardlock, as well as providing a path to ground for a ground tab on shield 18.
  • the board locks 41 serve to protect the tabs 100 from stubbing against the board PCB when the connector 1 is being mounted thereto, or being otherwise damaged when the connector 1 is being handled.
  • the connector 1' shown in Figure 12 is the same as connector 1 described above, excepting that the tabs 104 of the shield are not provided. The provision of the holes H3 in the circuit board is accordingly avoided.
  • a shield 18' is the same as the shield 18, excepting that the wall portion 86' of the rear wall 82' is formed with rows of holes 108 provided with struck out, semi-circular funnels 110 extending thereabout for the introduction of cleaning fluids, which may be liquids or gases, to flush out debris from beneath the terminal tail spacer plate.
  • cleaning fluids which may be liquids or gases
  • the liquids may flush out debris that might otherwise short between solder tails; air may be used to dry. This may be achieved with shield 18' in place.
  • the wall portion 88' is provided with a rearwardly inclined flap 112 to allow for the egress of the said fluids.
