ABSTRACT:
A guide post is adapted to be mounted to an electrical connector for being received in a receptacle hole defined in a mating connector to guide the mating operation of the connectors. The guide post has a threaded section threadingly engaging with an inner-threaded hole defined in the connector and a post section extending beyond the electrical connector and insertable into the receptacle hole of the mating connector. An intermediate section is formed between the threaded section and the post section. The intermediate section has a polygonal cross section with a circumferential groove formed therein. A helical spring having a first end received and retained in the circumferential groove surrounds the post section. The helical spring has a second end engageable with the mating connector when engaging the connectors together thereby providing a reaction force therebetween.
