ABSTRACT:
The present invention provides an open/close type electrical connector comprising, a base member, a terminal modular member positioned in the base member, and a cover member positioned on the base member. The cover member pivotally connects with the rear portion of the base member and rotates between an open position and a close position. When the cover member is opened, a receiving space is formed between the base member and the cover member to receive a mated plug. A restricting mechanism is further disposed at a lateral side of the base member for restricting an opened angle of the cover member with respect to the base member. An automatic close mechanism is disposed between the base member and the restricting mechanism so as to close the cover member automatically. Therefore, the open/close type electrical connector is capable of being closed to be a small and thin member automatically and without any accessorial operation by users when not used.
