Abstract
Disclosed is a parallel connector assembly for a disk drive mainly including an L-shaped fixing member, an upper and a lower connectors associated together by the fixing member, a first base integrally formed with the lower connector and having a plurality of pins disposed at a bottom surface thereof, a second base connected to a back side of the first base and having a plurality of pins disposed at a bottom surface thereof, wires connecting the upper and the lower connectors to the pins on the second and the first bases, respectively, a housing having an integrally formed fixing block, and a spacing member together with the fixing block to space and locate the wires in place. The wires spaced and located by the fixing block and the spacing member can be protected from deformation to avoid short circuit and thereby ensure stable and correct data transmission. And, the wires can be quickly connected to the connectors and the bases by inserting them into holes formed on the connectors and the bases.
