Electric connector and its system arrangement method

Abstract

This invention discloses an arranging method for an electric connector with insulation body and its system including the following steps: 1. providing an electric connector with a pair of sleeve barrels on the body 2. key part on one of the sleeve barrels 3. arranging the above mentioned sleeve barrels into different combinations and 4. selecting one from the combinations to match up with the electric connector, capable of quickly designing electric connectors without error match and its system.

Description

Technical field

[0001] The present invention relates to a method, especially a method for disposing electrical connectors by using a key device and using these electrical connectors to form a system, in which electrical connectors with different positioning keys will not be mismatched.

Background technique

[0002] Every calculator system requires a power connector. For example, the power supply of a personal computer requires at least four cable assemblies for power output: one cable each for the motherboard, hard disk, optical drive, and floppy disk to provide power, and in some cases more cable assemblies are required for the power supply. The end of each cable assembly is an electrical connector with a positioning device, and the connector can be a male connector with pin terminals or a socket connector. Because of the possibility of incorrect mating between male and female connectors, it is necessary to provide mismating protection.

Examples

Embodiment Construction

[0025] see figure 1 , the first basic constituent unit is composed of a square 11 above and a square 12 below. The lower left corners (11a, 12a) or the lower right corners (11b, 12b) of the squares 11, 12 can be selectively flattened to form missing corners. Based on the above shapes, the squares 11, 12 without missing corners 12 is selectively combined with notched corners 11a, 12a, 11b and 12b to obtain eight sets of constituent units 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27 and 28 with different shapes. However, in these constituent units, not all squares 11, 12 are provided with left and right notched corners 11a, 12a, 11b and 12b.

[0026] When the sleeve of the electrical connector is configured using the above-mentioned constituent units 21 , 22 , 23 , 24 , 25 , 26 , 27 and 28 , it is obvious that there are many options.

[0027] The working principle of configuring the electrical connector set without mismating is that when the squares 11 , 12 try to mate with the receptacle conne...
