Abstract
The shield covers of an overmold shielded electrical connector have pivot detents stamped into their surfaces to provide a point for the shield halves to rotate on the center dielectric with a lever type action. When fully closed, the lever action assures that the cover tabs of the shield members securely contact the connector shell and maintain a positive ground.
