Abstract

A probe connector has a barrel with a main body surrounding a chamber therein. The main body has a slot communicating with the chamber. A plunger includes a basic portion restricted in the barrel and a contact portion extended from one end of the basic portion. A fixing element has a fixing ring wrapping a periphery of the main body, a portion of the fixing ring extended perpendicular to the fixing ring to form a connecting rod. The connecting rod has a portion bent towards the same direction as an extending direction of a radius of the fixing ring to form a resting portion buckling into the chamber of the main body through the slot. The resting portion resiliently abuts against a side of the plunger when the plunger is pressed downwards to deflect to contact an inner surface of the main body by an opposite side thereof.
