Abstract

A probe connector includes a pedestal shell having a pedestal platform and a barrel extending upward from the pedestal platform with a fastening body protruded outward at a top of the barrel, a positioning shell removably coupled to the fastening body and having a blocking plate covered on the top of the barrel and side plates abutting against outsides of the fastening body, a probe pin movably restrained in the barrel by the blocking plate and further projecting upward out of the blocking plate, and an elastic element assembled between the probe pin and the pedestal platform. Two windows are opened at two opposite parts of the fastening body. Two opposite side plates are provided with two contact arms extending downward and inclined towards each other to pass through the windows and always resist against the probe pin to clip the probe pin therebetween.
