[0120] At Figures 1 to 34 In the illustrated embodiment, the female connector 11 can be coupled to the male connector 12 to form a connector assembly 1 and can be used in various electronic devices to transmit signals.
[0121] The female connector 11 has a female conductive terminal 111, a female insulating seat 112 and a female metal shell 113. The female conductive terminal 111 has a female terminal overlap structure 1111. The female insulating seat 112 is, for example, made of an insulating material in which the female conductive terminal 111 can be embedded. The female metal shell 113 is, for example, a shell made by bending a metal sheet, and the female metal shell 113 is joined to the female insulating seat 112, so that the female metal shell 113 and the female insulating seat 112 are joined to form a female joint body 110.
[0122] The female end joint body 110 has a female end lap space 1101 and a female end clamping side wall 1102. It should be noted that the female end terminal lap structure 1111 is located in the female end lap space 1101. The female end clamping side wall 1102 has a first female end clamping surface 11021, a second female end clamping surface 11022, a third female end clamping surface 11023, a first female end clamping direction D11, a second female end clamping direction D12 and a third female end clamping direction D13. The first female end clamping surface 11021, the second female end clamping surface 11022 and the third female end clamping surface 11023 can extend respectively in the first female end clamping surface extension line segment L111, the second female end clamping surface extension line segment L112 and the third female end clamping surface extension line segment L113.

However, without limiting the foregoing, the first mother-end clamping surface extension line segment L111 and the second mother-end clamping surface extension line segment L112 may also be selected to intersect non-substantially perpendicularly, the third mother-end clamping surface extension line segment L113 and the second mother-end clamping surface extension line segment L112 may also be selected to intersect non-substantially perpendicularly, the first mother-end clamping direction extension line segment L211 and the second mother-end clamping direction extension line segment L212 may also be selected to intersect non-substantially perpendicularly, the third mother-end clamping direction extension line segment L213 and the second mother-end clamping direction extension line segment L212 may also be selected to intersect non-substantially perpendicularly.

[0129] In addition, the second female metal snap-fit subshell 1132 can also be selectively connected to the third female metal snap-fit subshell 1133, so that the second female metal snap-fit subshell 1132 and the third female metal snap-fit subshell 1133 can form a bent body that can be engaged with the female insulating seat body 112.
[0130] The male connector 12 comprises a male conductive terminal 121, a male insulating seat 122 and a male metal shell 123.

The male metal shell 123 is joined to the male insulating seat 122, so that the male metal shell 123 and the male insulating seat 122 are joined to form a male joint body 120.
[0131] The male terminal joint body 120 has a male terminal overlap space 1201 and a male terminal clamping side wall 1202. It should be noted that the male terminal overlap structure 1211 is located in the male terminal overlap space 1201. The male terminal clamping side wall 1202 has a first male terminal clamping surface 12021, a second male terminal clamping surface 12022, a third male terminal clamping surface 12023, a first male terminal clamping direction D21, a second male terminal clamping direction D22, and a third male terminal clamping direction D23.

However, not limited to the above content, the second male terminal clamping surface 12022 can also be located in the male terminal insulating seat 122, and the third male terminal clamping surface 12023 can also be located in the male terminal insulating seat 122.
[0133] The first male end clamping surface extension line segment L121 and the second male end clamping surface extension line segment L122 can be extended to substantially intersect, and the third male end clamping surface extension line segment L123 and the second male end clamping surface extension line segment L122 can be extended to substantially intersect. The first male end clamping direction extension line segment L221 and the second male end clamping direction extension line segment L222 can be extended to substantially intersect, and the third male end clamping direction extension line segment L223 and the second male end clamping direction extension line segment L222 can be extended to substantially intersect.
[0134] In addition, the male end clamping side wall 1202 further comprises a first male end clamping structure 12024, a second male end clamping structure 12025 and a third male end clamping structure 12026. The first male end clamping structure 12024, the second male end clamping structure 12025 and the third male end clamping structure 12026 are respectively disposed on the first male end clamping surface 12021, the second male end clamping surface 12022 and the third male end clamping surface 12023.
[0135] It should be noted that the first male terminal snap-in structure 12024, the second male terminal snap-in structure 12025 and the third male terminal snap-in structure 12026 are recessed structures or raised structures, so that the size of the male terminal connector 12 can be reduced, thereby allowing electronic devices using the male terminal connector 12 to continue to develop in the direction of being thinner and smaller.
[0136] like Figure 10 to Figure 11 and Figure 29 to Figure 30As shown, the first male end clamping surface extension line segment L121 intersects substantially perpendicularly with the second male end clamping surface extension line segment L122, the third male end clamping surface extension line segment L123 intersects substantially perpendicularly with the second male end clamping surface extension line segment L122, the first male end clamping direction extension line segment L221 intersects substantially perpendicularly with the second male end clamping direction extension line segment L222, and the third female end clamping direction extension line segment L213 intersects substantially perpendicularly with the second female end clamping direction extension line segment L212. However, the foregoing contents are not limited thereto, and the first male end clamping surface extension line segment L121 and the second male end clamping surface extension line segment L122 may also be selected to intersect non-substantially perpendicularly, the third male end clamping surface extension line segment L123 and the second male end clamping surface extension line segment L122 may also be selected to intersect non-substantially perpendicularly, the first male end clamping direction extension line segment L221 and the second male end clamping direction extension line segment L222 may also be selected to intersect non-substantially perpendicularly, and the third female end clamping direction extension line segment L213 and the second female end clamping direction extension line segment L212 may also be selected to intersect non-substantially perpendicularly.
[0137] It should be noted that the female end clamping side wall 1102 can abut against the male end clamping side wall 1202 to guide the male end connector 12 into the female end overlapping space 1101, so that the female end terminal overlapping structure 1111 of the female end connector 11 can overlap the male end terminal overlapping structure 1211 of the male end connector 12. In addition, when the male connector 12 enters the female end overlapping space 1101, the first female end clamping structure 11024, the second female end clamping structure 11025 and the third female end clamping structure 11026 of the female connector 11 can respectively clamp the first male end clamping structure 12024, the second male end clamping structure 12025 and the third male end clamping structure 12026 of the male connector 12 in the first female end clamping direction D11, the second female end clamping direction D12 and the third female end clamping direction D13. In this way, the male connector 12 can be stopped from detaching from the overlapping female connector 11, thereby solving the technical problem that the male connector 12 is easily detached from the overlapping female connector 11, etc., so as to maintain the overlapping relationship between the female terminal overlapping structure 1111 and the male terminal overlapping structure 1211, so as to ensure that the signal transmission function of the female connector 11 and the male connector 12 meets expectations and can be widely used in various electronic devices.
[0138] Correspondingly, the male end clamping side wall 1202 can abut against the female end clamping side wall 1102 to guide the female end connector 11 into the male end overlapping space 1201, so that the male end terminal overlapping structure 1211 of the male end connector 12 can overlap the female end terminal overlapping structure 1111 of the female end connector 11. In addition, when the female connector 11 enters the male end overlapping space 1201, the first male end clamping structure 12024, the second male end clamping structure 12025 and the third male end clamping structure 12026 of the male connector 12 can respectively clamp the first female end clamping structure 11024, the second female end clamping structure 11025 and the third female end clamping structure 11026 of the female connector 11 in the first male end clamping direction D21, the second male end clamping direction D22 and the third male end clamping direction D23. In this way, the female connector 11 can be stopped from detaching from the overlapping male connector 12, thereby solving technical problems such as the female connector 11 easily detaching from the overlapping male connector 12, so as to maintain the overlapping relationship between the male terminal overlapping structure 1211 and the female terminal overlapping structure 1111, so as to ensure that the signal transmission function of the male connector 12 and the female connector 11 meets expectations and can be widely used in various electronic devices.
