Fan connector structure

Abstract

The invention provides a fan connector structure which is suitable for a system mainboard. The system mainboard is provided with a machine board end connector, the fan connector structure comprises a fan, the fan comprises a fan frame body, and a fan end connector protrudes out of the outer side of the fan frame body. The fan end connector and the fan frame body are integrally or non-integrally formed and are in butt joint with the machine board end connector so that automatic and rapid assembly can be achieved, and labor and time cost is saved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of fans, in particular to a fan connector structure capable of fast assembly and automatic assembly to save labor, time, cost and uniform quality. Background technique [0002] The fan is a commonly used system heat dissipation device, which is often used in electronic equipment to provide forced heat dissipation. Generally, the power supply and signal feedback control of the fan need to be electrically connected to the motherboard (system motherboard) in the electronic equipment. Transmit signals and power. [0003] see figure 1 The conventional general fan connector is mainly electrically connected to a connector 42 and a fan circuit board (not shown in the figure) through a plurality of electric wires 43, and the connector 42 is exposed outside a fan frame 41, During installation, the connector 42 that hangs outside the fan frame 41 at the end of the electric wire 43 is plugged with the plurality of metal termina...

Problems solved by technology

[0004] However, due to the separate design of the existing fan 4 connector and the fan frame 41, the two are connected by exposed and unfixed wires 43, so that it is currently impossible to use automated process equipment for automatic assembly, and manual methods are still required. After plugging the connector 42 of the fan 4 to the plurality of metal terminals 511 of the motherboard 51 with bare hands, the exposed fan electric wires 43 must be manually operated along the line and the whole line with bare hands. It is said that the entire process of placing and assembling the existing fan 4 connectors and wires 43 must be manually assembled and executed, so if a mass production is carried out, it will definitely consume manpower and manufacturing man-hours for assembly, and lead to increased costs

In addition, because the exposed fan wire 43 will still produce redundant sections (i.e. too long electric wires) to hang down between the fan 4 and the main board 51 to interfere with the flow of the airflow in the system space even after going through the straight line and the whole line. and dust adhesion or dust

[0005] Therefore, how to improve the existing fan 4 and motherboard 51 connectors is manually assembled and cannot be produced automatically, and it is time-consuming and labor-intensive, resulting in increased manufacturing costs and inconsistent quality of assembly. heavy target
