In the embodiment of the present invention, third barrier ribs 43 are disposed on the second bottom surface portion at intervals, and the top surface of the third barrier ribs 43 is higher than the second bottom surface portion. By means of the third spacers 43 which are spaced apart, the risk of short-circuiting between adjacent contact assemblies 2 due to dropping of conductive debris or the like or overflow of solder is further reduced.
As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the first barrier 41 is located at a side of the contact assembly 2 extending out of the assembly tip of the connector, for separating the contact assembly 2; a first gap is provided between the first barrier 41 and the adjacent contact assembly 2; the third barrier 43 has a second gap with the adjacent contact assembly 2.

Wherein, as shown in fig. 4, the grounding plate 3 comprises a barb structure which is inserted and connected with the grounding plate socket 5 and a grounding plane structure which is exposed on the bottom surface of the connector. The grounding sheet 3 is an integrated structure, and the connection structure between the barb structure and the grounding plane structure is a one-piece structure. The integrated molding of the grounding piece and the design of the one-piece structure greatly simplify the preparation process of the grounding piece, and simultaneously match the integrated structure of the grounding piece 3 with the grounding piece socket 5 inserted with the grounding piece, so that the molding process of the grounding piece socket is also greatly simplified, the production cost of the connector is further saved, and the production efficiency is improved. In addition, the barb structure of the grounding plate is an integrated structure, and the length of the barb structure is the same as the length of the grounding plate socket.

The ground plate structure shown in fig. 4 is merely an example of one embodiment of the present invention and is not meant to limit the present invention. For example, as a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the length of the ground blade at the ground blade receptacle 5 is less than or equal to the length of the ground blade 3 exposed to the bottom surface of the connector. In other words, the length of the ground plane structure is greater than or equal to the length of the barb structure. The invention can increase the welding surface area of the electric connection between the grounding piece and the tin plate by increasing the length of the grounding plane structure exposed on the bottom surface of the connector, thereby further improving the connection firmness and reliability of the connector.
