Abstract
An electrical connector includes an insulating housing, a plurality of probe pins assembled in the insulating housing, a magnetic block and a metal shell. The insulating housing has a base and a tongue extending frontward from a front of the base. The magnetic block has an inserting hole penetrating longitudinally therethrough and matched with the tongue of the insulating housing. The metal shell includes a first metal shell and a second metal shell. The first metal shell is assembled rearward through the tongue to enclose the base, and the magnetic block sheathes the tongue in the inserting hole. The second metal shell covers a front of the magnetic block and defines a positioning window for positioning a front end of the tongue therein. The second metal shell and the first metal shell are buckled and electrically connected with each other to clamp the magnetic block therebetween.
