Abstract
A USB connector includes a connector body and a shielding sheet rotatably connected to the connecting body. The connector body includes a connector holder and a plug connected to the connector holder. The plug defines an opening in an end away from the connector holder. The plug is configured for coupling the USB connector to a mating connector. The shielding sheet is rotated to expose the opening of the plug when the USB connector couples to the mating connector, and covers the opening of the plug when the USB connector is detached from the mating connector.
