[0050] In order to make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of the embodiments of the present application clearer, the technical solution in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the present application, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative work are within the scope of protection of this application.
[0051] The disclosure below provides many different embodiments or examples to implement different structures of the present invention. In order to simplify the disclosure of the present invention, the parts and settings of specific examples are described below. Of course, they are only examples, and the purpose is not to limit the present invention. In addition, the present invention can repeat reference numbers and / or letters in different examples. This repetition is for the purpose of simplification and clarity, and does not itself indicate the relationship between the various embodiments and / or settings discussed.
[0052] For ease of description, spatial relative terms may be used herein to describe the relative positional relationship or movement of one element or feature relative to another element or feature as shown in the figure, such as "inside", "outside", "inner side", "outer side", "below", "below", "above", "above", "front", "back", etc. Such spatial relative terms are intended to include different orientations of the device in use or operation in addition to the orientation depicted in the figure. For example, if the device in the figure undergoes a position flip or a posture change or a motion state change, then these directional indications also change accordingly, for example: an element described as "below other elements or features" or "below other elements or features" will subsequently be oriented as "above other elements or features" or "above other elements or features". Therefore, the example term "below..." may include both upper and lower orientations. The device may be otherwise oriented (rotated 90 degrees or in other directions) and the spatial relative descriptors used herein are interpreted accordingly.
[0053] In some exemplary embodiments, Figure 1-Figure 3 As shown, a connector 1 is applied to an electronic device, and a plurality of accessories are provided in the electronic device to support the normal use of the electronic device. Among them, the accessories include, but are not limited to, a circuit board 2 and a connector 1, and the connector 1 is positioned and connected with the circuit board 2 to ensure stable transmission and efficient connection of signals inside the electronic device. Alternatively, the connector 1 is plugged with another connector in the electronic device to realize signal transmission. For example, the connector 1 in this application is a female connector, and a male connector is provided in the electronic device, and the two are plugged and connected.
[0054] The connector 1 is a single-tongue core connector structure to improve connection accuracy, reduce loss, enhance durability and improve design flexibility. The connector 1 includes a shell structure 11, a terminal assembly 12, a shielding structure 13 and an insulation structure 14, which work together to provide a stable and reliable signal connection for electronic equipment.
[0055] The insulating structure 14 is disposed in the shell structure 11 . The insulating structure 14 is made of, for example, a material with insulating properties to isolate different signal terminals in the terminal assembly 12 , prevent signal interference, and ensure pure signal transmission.
[0056] At least part of the structure of the terminal assembly 12 and at least part of the structure of the shielding structure 13 are respectively buried in the insulating structure 14 to ensure stable signal transmission and the overall strength of the connector 1. The shielding structure 13 is used to prevent the influence of external electromagnetic interference on signal transmission. Figure 1 The X-axis shown in the figure has a first end 15 and a second end 16 which are arranged opposite to each other, that is, the first end 15 is, for example, a head, and the second end 16 is a tail.
[0057] In this embodiment, if Figure 3-Figure 12 As shown, the shell structure 11 as the outer protective shell of the connector 1 can not only provide sufficient mechanical strength to protect the internal components, but also isolate the internal and external environment to prevent external factors such as dust and moisture from interfering with the internal. The shell structure 11 is located at the second end 16 to protect the tail.
[0058] In this embodiment, if Figure 3-Figure 12 As shown, the shell structure 11 includes a first shell 112 and a second shell 113, which together ensure the overall strength and sealing performance of the connector 1 through precise matching and fixing. The first shell 112 is sleeved on the insulating structure 14, providing a basic protection frame for the connector 1. The first shell 112 is provided with a first through hole 111, and the second shell 113 is embedded in the first through hole 111 and fixedly connected to the first shell 112. Among them, the second shell 113 is provided with a second through hole 114 to expose part of the structure of the terminal assembly 12.
[0059] Exemplarily, the first shell 112 includes a first part 1121 and a second part 1122, the first part 1121 has a first groove 11211, and the second part 1122 has a second groove 11221. When the first part 1121 and the second part 1122 are connected, the first groove 11211 and the second groove 11221 cover each other to form an internal accommodating space, and then the terminal assembly 12, etc. are placed.
[0060] The first portion 1121 has a first length along the first direction of the connector 1 , and the second portion 1122 has a second length along the first direction of the connector 1 . The first length is smaller than the second length to expose a portion of the second groove 11221 , thereby constructing the first through hole 111 .
[0061] Exemplarily, the first portion 1121 has a first embedding groove 11212 along the first direction of the connector 1 , and a part of the structure of the second shell 113 is embedded in the first embedding groove 11212 , so that the two can be more closely combined together.
[0062] The second portion 1122 has a second embedding groove 11222 along the first direction of the connector 1 , and a part of the structure of the second housing 113 is embedded in the second embedding groove 11222 , so that the two can be more closely combined together.
[0063] In this embodiment, if Figure 3-Figure 12 As shown, the first housing 112 includes a third portion 1123, which is sleeved on the outside of the insulating structure 14, and is connected to the first portion 1121 and the second portion 1122 respectively, and the third portion 1123 is arranged on a side away from the first through hole 111. The third portion 1123 is a cylindrical structure, which provides additional protection for the connector 1.
[0064] In this embodiment, if Figure 3-Figure 12 As shown, the outer side of the third part 1123 is provided with a sealing layer 18. The sealing layer 18 is made of a conductive material and can play a sealing role. When plugged with the male connector, the sealing layer 18 can fit tightly in the gap between the two, effectively preventing moisture from penetrating into the connector 1. At the same time, the sealing layer 18 can also play a role in signal shielding and leakage prevention, so as to achieve a better electromagnetic shielding effect and improve the overall performance of the connector 1. Among them, an annular groove can be provided on the outer side of the third part 1123, and the sealing layer 18, such as a sealing ring, is embedded in the annular groove to limit the movement of the sealing layer 18, avoid the deviation of the sealing layer 18, etc., and improve the fit of the sealing layer 18 during assembly.
[0065] The segmented structure can not only ensure that the insulating structures 14 of different sizes can be surrounded and exposed, but also save costs. The first shell 112 is also provided with a connecting ear 1124, which can be easily grasped by the user, and can also be detachably connected to other components through the connecting ear 1124 using fasteners (such as screws or bolts, etc.), thereby realizing the flexibility of the shell structure 11.
[0066] In this embodiment, if Figure 3-Figure 12As shown, the second shell 113 includes a first connecting body 1131 , a transition connecting body 1132 and a second connecting body 1133 , and the first connecting body 1131 is connected to the second connecting body 1133 via the transition connecting body 1132 .
[0067] The first connector 1131 is embedded in the first embedding groove 11212 to achieve assembly connection and improve assembly efficiency. The first connector 1131 can be welded to the first embedding groove 11212 to improve the reliability of the connection, so that the first connector 1131 can fit tightly in the first embedding groove 11212.
[0068] The second connector 1133 is embedded in the second embedding groove 11222 to achieve assembly connection and improve assembly efficiency. The second connector 1133 can be welded to the second embedding groove 11222 to improve the reliability of the connection, so that the second connector 1133 can fit tightly in the second embedding groove 11222.
[0069] The transition connector 1132 is, for example, an arc-shaped rod to provide necessary protection or support functions. A plurality of notches 1134 are provided at the connection between the first connector 1131 and the second connector 1133 and the transition connector 1132, and the notches 1134 are conducive to dispersing stress, ensuring that the transition connector 1132 bends smoothly and further saving costs.
[0070] The shell structure 11 in the connector 1 of this embodiment provides a solid protective barrier for the connector 1 through precise design and matching. When the shell structure 11 is connected to the circuit board 2, it is buckled on the circuit board 2 so that the second through hole 114 can be closed, improving the isolation and further preventing external factors such as dust and moisture from interfering with the internal. The connector 1 can maintain stable performance even in harsh environments, providing reliable support for various application scenarios.
[0071] In some exemplary embodiments, Figure 3 , Figure 6 , Figure 7 As shown, the shielding structure 13 includes a middle shielding member 131 and two outer shielding members 132. The middle shielding member 131 is located between the two outer shielding members 132. The middle shielding member 131 is connected to the outer shielding members 132 respectively and cooperates with each other to enhance the shielding effect and effectively disperse the external interference that may be encountered.
[0072] In this embodiment, Figure 3 , Figure 6 , Figure 7 As shown, the intermediate shielding member 131 includes an intermediate shielding body 1311 and a covering body 1312 . The covering body 1312 is located at the first end 15 , ie, the head of the connector 1 . The covering body 1312 is fixedly connected to the intermediate shielding body 1311 .
[0073] The intermediate shielding body 1311 is buried in the insulating structure 14, effectively shielding the electromagnetic interference from the outside. The encapsulating body 1312 can encapsulate at least part of the side wall of the insulating structure 14, and the encapsulating body 1312 provides additional support and protection for the tongue core of the connector 1, effectively improving the structural strength of the entire tongue core. The connection between the encapsulating body 1312 and the insulating structure 14 is flush to ensure the flatness of the connection, avoiding the difficulty of plugging and unplugging due to the uneven connection when plugging with the male connector.
[0074] The connector 1 in this embodiment shows excellent performance in electronic devices. Its single tongue core structure improves the connection accuracy and durability. The sheath 1312 in the middle shield 131 can protect the head and is made of metal material. Compared with the plastic structure in the related art, its structural strength is higher. The tongue core can better disperse the stress when subjected to the plugging and unplugging force, avoiding damage caused by local stress concentration. The connection between the sheath 1312 and the insulating structure 14 is flush, and the middle shield 131 is partially thickened, which enhances the plugging and unplugging durability of the connector 1, so that the connector 1 can still maintain good electrical connection and mechanical stability after multiple plugging and unplugging operations.
[0075] In this embodiment, if Figure 3 , Figure 6 , Figure 7 As shown, the covering body 1312 includes a first covering body 13121 and two first covering branches 13122 . The first covering body 13121 and the first covering branches 13122 are respectively fixedly connected to the middle shielding body 1311 , and together provide comprehensive protection for the connector 1 .
[0076] The first covering body 13121 and the first covering branch 13122 are used to cover different wall surfaces of the insulating structure 14, achieving multi-directional protection, which not only enhances the structural strength of the connector 1, but also improves its resistance to the external environment, significantly improving the overall durability and reliability of the connector 1.
[0077] The two first covering branches 13122 are symmetrically arranged along the first direction of the connector 1, and cooperate with the first covering body 13121, so that the connector 1 can better disperse stress when subjected to external force, thereby avoiding damage caused by local stress concentration.
[0078] The first covering branch 13122 includes a first curved section 131221 and a first straight section 131222, and the first straight section 131222 is connected to the first covering body 13121 through the first curved section 131221. The first curved section 131221 is arched and protrudes from the connector 1, so as to form a limited insertion with the male connector, thereby improving the stability and accuracy of the connection.
[0079] The first curved section 131221 is chamfered to improve its smoothness and safety, avoid damage caused by sharp corners, and thus extend the service life of the connector. Of course, it is understandable that the chamfering position is not limited to the first curved section 131221, and the connection between the first curved section 131221 and the first covering body 13121 can also be chamfered to further improve the safety during plugging and unplugging and extend the service life of the connector 1.
[0080] The connector 1 in this embodiment, through the chamfering treatment of the covering body 1312 and the first bending section 131221, not only realizes the multi-directional protection of the insulating structure 14, but also improves the stability of the connection and the safety of plugging and unplugging, and significantly improves the overall performance and service life of the connector 1.
[0081] In this embodiment, if Figure 3 , Figure 6 , Figure 7 As shown, the intermediate shielding member 131 includes a limiting portion 1313 disposed on the intermediate shielding body 1311 , and the intermediate shielding body 1311 is connected to the insulating structure 14 via the limiting portion 1313 to improve the reliability of the connection and avoid loosening.
[0082] First example
[0083] The limiting portion 1313 includes a plurality of limiting protrusions 13131, which are symmetrically arranged on the side wall of the middle shielding body 1311 along the first direction of the connector 1, and the limiting protrusions 13131 are symmetrically arranged on the side wall of the middle shielding body 1311 along the second direction of the connector 1 (refer to Figure 1 The Y-axis shown in the figure extends to form a certain length and height.
[0084] When the middle shielding body 1311 is connected to the insulating structure 14, the limiting protrusion 13131 will cooperate with the corresponding structure (such as groove, hole, etc.) on the insulating structure 14 to form a limiting connection, which not only improves the stability during connection, but also effectively prevents the middle shielding body 1311 from deflecting or loosening during the connection process.
[0085] Second example
[0086] The limiting portion 1313 includes a plurality of first limiting holes 13132, and the plurality of first limiting holes 13132 are arranged along the thickness direction of the connector (refer to Figure 1 The Z axis as shown in the figure) passes through the middle shielding body 1311, and the plurality of first limiting holes 13132 are symmetrically arranged along the first direction of the connector.
[0087] The insulating structure 14 is provided with structures (such as protrusions, pins, etc.) that match the first limiting hole 13132. When the intermediate shielding body 1311 is connected to the insulating structure 14, these matching structures will be inserted into the first limiting hole 13132 to form a limiting plug-in, which significantly improves the stability and reliability of the connection.
[0088] It should be noted that the first direction of the connector, the second direction of the connector, and the thickness direction of the connector are perpendicular to each other, which not only meets the general layout requirements of electronic connectors, but also ensures precise matching and stable connection between components.
[0089] The connector 1 in this embodiment provides two different designs of the limiting parts 1313 to achieve the limiting connection between the intermediate shielding body 1311 and the insulating structure 14. This design not only improves the stability and reliability of the connection, but also effectively prevents the occurrence of loosening. In practical applications, the appropriate limiting part 1313 design can be selected according to specific needs and layout requirements of the connector 1.
[0090] In this embodiment, if Figure 3 , Figure 6 , Figure 7 As shown, the intermediate shielding body 1311 is provided with at least one first avoidance through hole 13133, and the first avoidance through hole 13133 penetrates the intermediate shielding body 1311. Under the premise of ensuring the shielding effect, the laying of the intermediate shielding body 1311 is reduced, the cost is reduced, and the overall performance of the connector 1 is improved.
[0091] In this embodiment, if Figure 3 , Figure 6 , Figure 7 As shown, two intermediate shielding connecting parts 13134 are arranged on the intermediate shielding body 1311 , and the two intermediate shielding connecting parts 13134 are symmetrically arranged along the first direction of the connector 1 , and the intermediate shielding connecting parts 13134 are used to provide connection positions for connection with other components.
[0092] In this embodiment, if Figure 3 , Figure 6 , Figure 7 As shown, in order to further improve the stability and anti-interference ability of signal transmission, the shielding structure 13 includes two outer shielding members 132. The outer shielding members 132 are made of metal materials with good conductive properties, such as copper, aluminum or nickel-plated steel, etc., to effectively block and reflect electromagnetic fields. During installation, ensure that the outer shielding members 132 are tightly fitted with the insulating structure 14 so that they are firmly fixed on the insulating structure 14.
[0093] The two outer shielding members 132 are arranged on both sides of the middle shielding body 1311 along the thickness direction of the connector 1, which not only enhances the shielding effect, but also effectively disperses possible external interference. The outer shielding members 132 are buried in the insulating structure 14, further improving the stability and durability of the shielding structure 13.
[0094] The outer shielding member 132 is connected to the middle shielding connection portion 13134 of the middle shielding body 1311 , for example, by welding, which not only has high strength but also can effectively prevent signal leakage, further improving the reliability of the connection.
[0095] In this embodiment, if Figure 3 , Figure 6 , Figure 7 As shown, the outer shielding member 132 includes an outer shielding body 1321 and two outer shielding mounting portions 1322 symmetrically arranged along the first direction of the connector 1. The outer shielding body 1321 serves as the main shielding part and is responsible for blocking external interference, while the outer shielding mounting portions 1322 serve to fix and connect.
[0096] The outer shielding mounting portion 1322 is fixedly connected to the outer shielding body 1321 , and the outer shielding mounting portion 1322 is limitedly connected to the insulating structure 14 , which not only enhances the stability of the structure, but also realizes the interlocking function and prevents looseness between components.
[0097] Among them, the outer shielding mounting parts 1322 of the two outer shielding bodies 1321 are staggered along the first direction of the connector 1, breaking the limitations of the traditional layout, making the application scope of the outer shielding member 132 wider and no longer limited by the size of the connector 1, thereby improving the versatility and flexibility of the outer shielding member 132.
[0098] Exemplarily, the outer shielding mounting portion 1322 includes a mounting body 13221 and a through hole 13222 formed in the mounting body, and the mounting body 13221 is connected to the insulating structure 14 in a limited position through the through hole 13222, thereby ensuring the stability and reliability of the connection. The mounting body 13221 is bent relative to the outer shielding body 1321 along the thickness direction of the connector 1, so that the mounting body 13221 is attached to the side wall of the insulating structure 14, so as to achieve a limited position connection with the insulating structure 14. Among them, a matching limiting structure is provided on the insulating structure 14, so as to achieve limited position plugging.
[0099] The connector 1 in this embodiment adopts a split double outer shielding component 132 design, which enhances signal transmission stability and anti-interference capability through precise layout and connection method, effectively improves the overall performance, and meets the demand of modern electronic equipment for high-performance connector 1.
[0100] In this embodiment, if Figure 3 , Figure 6 , Figure 7 As shown, the outer shielding body 1321 includes a first shielding segment 13211 and a second shielding segment 13212, which are sequentially arranged along the first direction of the connector 1 and connected to each other, which not only ensures the integrity of the outer shielding body 1321, but also facilitates manufacturing and assembly.
[0101] The first shielding section 13211 is bent relative to the second shielding section 13212 to better fit the insulating structure 14. The insulating structure 14 is usually used to isolate different electrical parts to prevent current leakage or short circuit, and the close fit of the outer shielding body 1321 can effectively reduce the penetration of electromagnetic interference and ensure the continuity of the shielding effect. The bending design increases the contact area between the outer shielding body 1321 and the insulating structure 14, thereby improving the shielding effectiveness.
[0102] Among them, the second shielding segment 13212 is fixedly connected to the outer shielding mounting portion 1322, and the outer shielding mounting portion 1322 is bent relative to the second shielding segment 13212, thereby forming a certain angle, which not only enhances the structural strength of the outer shielding body 1321, but also facilitates its stable installation in a proper position of the connector 1. The bending design of the outer shielding mounting portion 1322 also allows for more flexible connection and fixation in a limited space, which helps to improve the compactness and reliability of the entire connector 1.
[0103] It should be noted that, regarding the length design of the first shielding segment 13211 and the second shielding segment 13212, no specific values are given in this embodiment, because these two length parameters are determined according to the specific application scenario. In practical applications, it is necessary to reasonably set these two lengths according to the size of the connector 1, the size of the area to be protected, and the expected shielding effect. For example, in areas where higher shielding effectiveness is required, the length of the first shielding segment 13211 or the second shielding segment 13212 can be appropriately increased to cover and protect these key areas.
[0104] In this embodiment, if Figure 3 , Figure 6 , Figure 7 As shown, the outer shielding body 1321 includes a first connection portion 13213, which can be provided on the first shielding segment 13211 alone, or on the second shielding segment 13212 alone, or on both the first shielding segment 13211 and the second shielding segment 13212. The outer shielding body 1321 is fixedly connected to the shell structure 11 via the first connection portion 13213. The first connection portion 13213, for example, includes a plurality of welding points to ensure the stability and reliability of the connection.
[0105] The outer shielding body 1321 includes two second connection parts 13214, which are symmetrically arranged along the first direction of the connector 1, and the second connection parts 13214 are fixedly connected to the first shielding segment 13211. The outer shielding body 1321 is correspondingly connected to the middle shielding connection part 13134 on the middle shielding body 1311 through the second connection parts 13214, for example, the second connection parts 13214 and the middle shielding connection parts 13134 are welded to enhance the shielding effectiveness and improve the reliability of the connection.
[0106] In the connector 1 of this embodiment, the middle shielding member 131 is integrated with the grounding terminal, the middle shielding member 131 is connected to the outer shielding body 1321, and the outer shielding body 1321 is welded to the shell structure 11 by spot welding, thereby achieving a grounding effect. This design not only simplifies the overall structure and retains the high-frequency shielding effect, but also provides a direct connection point with the ground wire of the electronic equipment, thereby enhancing the effectiveness of the entire shielding structure 13.
[0107] Through the multi-layer protection of the outer shielding body 1321, the middle shielding body 1311 and the shell structure 11, the design of the connector 1 retains the high-frequency shielding effect and effectively reduces electromagnetic interference.
[0108] The ingenious design of the first connection part 13213 and the second connection part 13214, as well as the integration of the intermediate shield 1311 and the ground terminal, form a compact and orderly electrical layout area, which not only saves space but also improves the overall performance and reliability of the connector 1.
[0109] By reducing the solder foot of the ground terminal, this design reduces the soldering space requirement on the circuit board and reduces possible adverse conditions that may occur during the soldering process, thereby improving production efficiency and product quality.
[0110] The connector 1 in this embodiment forms an efficient multi-layer protection system by optimizing the connection and grounding method between the outer shield 1321, the middle shield 1311 and the shell structure 11. This design not only improves the electromagnetic shielding effectiveness and electrical layout compactness of the connector 1, but also reduces the risk of poor welding and the space occupied by the circuit board. Therefore, the design of the connector 1 has a wide range of application prospects in applications with high performance and high reliability requirements.
[0111] In some exemplary embodiments, Figure 3 , Figure 8 , Fig. 9As shown, the terminal assembly 12 includes a first signal terminal group 121 and a second signal terminal group 122, which are used to transmit a specific type of signal. The first signal terminal group 121 and the second signal terminal group 122 are arranged relative to each other along the thickness direction of the connector 1 to optimize the spatial layout and reduce mutual interference between signals. At least part of the structure of the first signal terminal group 121 and at least part of the structure of the second signal terminal group 122 are buried in the insulating structure 14 to ensure effective isolation from the external environment and provide mechanical protection for the terminal assembly 12 to prevent external factors from damaging internal components.
[0112] The middle shielding member 131 is located between the first signal terminal group 121 and the second signal terminal group 122 to form a physical barrier to effectively block electromagnetic interference between the first signal terminal group 121 and the second signal terminal group 122 .
[0113] In this embodiment, if Figure 3 , Figure 8 , Fig. 9 As shown, the first signal terminal group 121 is a welding pin (Pin), which is suitable for the connector 1 with high requirements on signal transmission efficiency, stability and space utilization. The first signal terminal group 121 includes a plurality of first conductive terminals 1211, which are sequentially arranged at intervals along the second direction, ensuring orderly transmission of signals in the horizontal direction and avoiding mutual interference.
[0114] The plurality of first conductive terminals 1211 are symmetrically arranged along the first direction of the connector 2 , which can enhance the stability during connection and help reduce electromagnetic interference or signal attenuation problems caused by asymmetry.
[0115] The lengths or widths of the plurality of first conductive terminals 1211 may be the same or different, for example, the width may be adjusted according to the actual required conductive cross-sectional area and suitable shape. For example, some of the first conductive terminals 1211 may be widened to meet the corresponding conductive cross-sectional area, or some of the first conductive terminals 1211 may be lengthened to ensure that the first conductive terminals 1211 have sufficient contact area to connect with the male connector, thereby achieving signal transmission. The specific details are subject to the actual situation, as long as they have sufficient conductive cross-sectional area and suitable shape to ensure that the first conductive terminals 1211 have low impedance transmission of signals and sufficient mechanical strength.
[0116] In this embodiment, if Figure 3 , Figure 8 , Fig. 9As shown, the second signal terminal group 122 is a welding pin (Pin), and the second signal terminal group 122 includes a plurality of second conductive terminals 1221, and the plurality of second conductive terminals 1221 are arranged in sequence along the second direction, which effectively improves the overall performance of the second signal terminal group 122 and reduces crosstalk and electromagnetic interference between signals.
[0117] The plurality of second conductive terminals 1221 are symmetrically arranged along the first direction of the connector 1 to enhance the stability and anti-interference capability of signal transmission, which is beneficial to balancing the stress distribution inside the connector 1 and can also effectively reduce signal attenuation or distortion caused by the external environment.
[0118] The second conductive terminal 1221, for example, includes a first conductive segment 12211, a second conductive segment 12212 and a third conductive segment 12213. The first conductive segment 12211 extends along the first direction of the connector 1 and is arranged close to the first end 15. The first conductive segment 12211 is connected to the second conductive segment 12212. The second conductive segment 12212 is bent along the thickness direction of the connector 1 to change the path of the second conductive terminal 1221. The third conductive segment 12213 is connected to the second conductive segment 12212. The third conductive segment 12213 extends along the first direction of the connector 1 and is close to the second end 16.
[0119] The second conductive segment 12212 changes the path of the second conductive terminal 1221 so that the second conductive terminal 1221 and the first conductive terminal 1211 are arranged at the same layer to ensure that they can be electrically connected to the circuit board 2 .
[0120] After assembly, the first signal terminal group 121 and the second signal terminal group 122 are subjected to strict performance tests, including signal transmission quality, impedance matching, electromagnetic compatibility (EMC), etc. Through testing and verification, the design can meet the established performance indicators and ensure the accuracy and stability of the signal during transmission.
[0121] In some exemplary embodiments, Figure 3 , Figure 8 , Fig. 9 As shown, the insulating structure 14 is made of a material with high insulation performance, such as polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE), epoxy resin, etc., to ensure electrical isolation between the components inside the electrical assembly. The insulating structure 14 can be formed on the terminal assembly 12 and the shielding structure 13 by injection molding, which has the advantages of convenient processing, short cycle, and low cost. During the molding process, due to the absence of internal stress, the product quality and structure are relatively stable, and it is easy to be processed into a specific shape and size, providing a basis for the subsequent installation of the shielding structure 13.
[0122] In this embodiment, if Figure 3 , Figure 8-Figure 12As shown, the insulating structure 14 includes a first insulating member 141 , a second insulating member 142 and a third insulating member 143 , and the first insulating member 141 and the second insulating member 142 are spaced apart from each other along a first direction of the connector 1 .
[0123] Part of the structure of the middle shield 1311 is embedded in the first insulating member 141 and the second insulating member 142 to fix the middle shield 1311. The first insulating member 141 is configured to support the first signal terminal group 121 and the second signal terminal group 122, and the second insulating member 142 is configured to support the first signal terminal group 121 and the second signal terminal group 122 to improve the stability of the first signal terminal group 121 and the second signal terminal group 122.
[0124] Exemplarily, a plurality of first support platforms 1411 are respectively arranged on both sides of the first insulating member 141 along the thickness direction of the connector 1, and the first conductive terminals 1211 of the first signal terminal group 121 and the second conductive terminals 1221 of the second signal terminal group 122 are arranged in the corresponding first support platforms 1411, which support and restrain the first conductive terminals 1211 and the second conductive terminals 1221, thereby improving the stability of the first conductive terminals 1211 and the second conductive terminals 1221.
[0125] Among them, a first limiting block 1412 may be provided between each two adjacent first support platforms 1411, and the first insulating member 141 is connected to the third insulating member 143 by the first limiting block 1412 to improve the reliability of the connection. The first limiting block 1412 may be, for example, a cube, a sphere, a special-shaped body, etc., and the first limiting block 1412 may be one or more, and the multiple first limiting blocks 1412 are arranged at intervals along the first direction of the connector 1.
[0126] The side wall of the first insulating member 141 is symmetrically provided with mounting protrusions 1413 along the first direction of the connector 1 . The mounting protrusions 1413 are positioned and plugged with the through holes 13222 of the outer shielding mounting portion 1322 to achieve interlocking.
[0127] The second insulating member 142 is provided with a plurality of second support platforms 1421 on both sides along the thickness direction of the connector 1. The first conductive terminals 1211 of the first signal terminal group 121 and the second conductive terminals 1221 of the second signal terminal group 122 are provided on the corresponding second support platforms 1421, which support and restrain the first conductive terminals 1211 and the second conductive terminals 1221, thereby improving the stability of the first conductive terminals 1211 and the second conductive terminals 1221.
[0128] Among them, a second limit block 1422 can be arranged between each two adjacent second support platforms 1421, and the second insulating member 142 is connected to the third insulating member 143 by the second limit block 1422 to improve the reliability of the connection. The setting method of the second limit block 1422 is the same or similar to the setting method of the first limit block 1412, and will not be repeated here.
[0129] In this embodiment, if Figure 3 , Figure 8-Figure 12 As shown, the third insulating member 143 at least covers a portion of the structure of the first insulating member 141, a portion of the structure of the second insulating member 142, a portion of the structure of the first signal terminal group 121, and a portion of the structure of the second signal terminal group 122, which not only enhances the structural stability between the components, but also promotes electrical isolation between them.
[0130] The insulating structure 14 is disposed in the shell structure 11, and the sizes of the parts of the third insulating member 143 of the insulating structure 14 are different, so as to achieve accurate wrapping and integration of different parts. Exemplarily, the third insulating member 143 includes a first insulator 1431, a second insulator 1432, and a third insulator 1433 sequentially disposed along the first direction of the connector 1, the first insulator 1431 and the second insulator 1432 are disposed at intervals, and the second insulator 1432 and the third insulator 1433 are connected, so that the third insulating member 143 can provide different wrapping states and support strengths in different areas.
[0131] Along the thickness direction of the connector 1 or along the second direction of the connector 1, the size of the first insulator 1431 is smaller than the size of the second insulator 1432, and the size of the second insulator 1432 is greater than or equal to the size of the third insulator 1433. The size difference design allows the third insulator 143 to provide different support and wrapping effects in different areas. Among them, the second shielding segment 13212 is embedded in the third insulator 1433, and the first shielding segment 13211 is embedded in the second insulator 1432, ensuring that the first shielding segment 13211 and the second shielding segment 13212 can be firmly fixed on the insulation structure 14, while providing the necessary electrical shielding and grounding functions.
[0132] In this embodiment, if Figure 3 , Figure 8-Figure 12 As shown, the shell structure 11 is arranged outside the insulating structure 14, and the shell structure 11 located at the second end 13 is provided with a first through hole 111 to expose the terminal assembly 12 located at the second end 16, and the terminal assembly 12 can be electrically connected to the electronic device.
[0133] Through the first through hole 111, along the first direction of the connector 1, that is, from the second end 16 to the first end 15, a colloid is injected into the shell structure 11, so that the colloid flows from the second end 16 to the first end 15 to the target position under the action of gravity. Under high temperature conditions, the colloid can be cured to form a waterproof layer 17, and the waterproof layer 17 is used to connect the insulating structure 14 and the shell structure 11 together. Among them, the waterproof layer 17 can at least fill part of the gap of the insulating structure 14, which can not only improve the connection effect, but also play a waterproof role. For example, the waterproof layer 17 fills the gap between the second insulating member 142 and the third insulating member 143, the gap between the insulating structure 14 and the terminal assembly 12, etc.
[0134] Exemplarily, the first insulator 1431 and the second insulator 1432 are arranged at intervals to form a glue holding space 1434. When the colloid flows, it will flow into the glue holding space 1434. When the glue is poured to a preset amount, the glue pouring is stopped and the glue is cured at high temperature to form a waterproof layer 17. The waterproof layer 17 can connect the shell structure 11 and the insulating structure 14 together, which not only improves the stability during the connection, but also forms a barrier to intercept foreign matter such as water molecules or dust molecules, thereby achieving high strength, high stability and high waterproof performance of the connector 1. These design features jointly improve the overall performance of the connector 1, so that it can meet various stringent application environment requirements.
[0135] Among them, the above-mentioned embodiment records that the size of the second insulator 1432 is relatively large, which can form a preliminary interception of the colloid to prevent it from flowing freely in the shell structure 11, ensure the molding effect of the waterproof layer 17, improve the appearance quality of the connector, avoid the problem of insufficient strength of the connection part due to uneven distribution of the colloid, and improve the overall reliability of the connector 1.
[0136] In addition, the gap between the second insulating member 142 and the terminal assembly 12 located in the glue containing space 1434 is filled with glue to achieve a waterproof effect.
[0137] In this embodiment, if Figure 3 , Figure 8-Figure 12 As shown, a glue blocking portion 14313 is provided on the first insulator 1431, and the glue blocking portion 14313 can intercept the flow of the colloid from the first end 15 to the second end 16, and prevent the colloid from overflowing the glue containing space 1434. The glue blocking portion 14313 can abut against the shell structure 11, which can not only effectively intercept the colloid, but also enhance the structural strength of the first insulator 1431, and provide effective support for the shell structure 11, preventing it from collapsing due to the pressure of the colloid during the glue filling process.
[0138] A glue injection channel 14312 is provided on the glue blocking portion 14313 , and the glue injection channel 14312 extends along the first direction of the connector 1 to communicate with the glue containing space 1434 , so that the glue can enter the glue containing space 1434 through the glue injection channel 14312 .
[0139] The glue pouring channel 14312 extends along the first direction of the connector 1, and adopts the method of injecting the glue at the tail, and the glue is intercepted by the second insulator 1432 to ensure that the glue can completely fill the gap between the first insulator 1431 and the second insulator 1432 and the gap between the terminal assembly 12 and the insulating structure 14, avoiding leaving potential leakage points, improving the waterproof performance of the connector 1, and avoiding serious problems such as circuit short circuit due to moisture intrusion.
[0140] It is understandable that there can be one or more glue pouring channels 14312, and the multiple glue pouring channels 14312 can be arranged at intervals along the second direction of the connector 1, so that the glue can be distributed to all corners of the insulating structure 14 more quickly, shortening the glue pouring time.
[0141] The colloid is arranged between the first insulator 1431 and the second insulator 1432, and flows along the cross section. Its flow path is short, and the distance between the first insulator 1431 and the second insulator 1432 is intuitive and controllable. It is easy to control the injection amount and injection speed of the colloid to ensure that the colloid will not overflow or be insufficient, thereby reducing the operating difficulty and cost in the production process and avoiding technical problems such as unstable connector quality due to improper process.
[0142] In this embodiment, if Figure 3 , Figure 8-Figure 12 As shown, an exhaust channel 14311 is provided on the first insulator 1431, and the glue pouring channel 14312 extends along the first direction of the connector 1, and the glue pouring channel 14312 and the exhaust channel 14311 are staggered, for example, located on both sides of the thickness direction of the connector 1, to ensure that during the glue pouring process, the colloid can be smoothly injected and fill the gap between the insulating structure 14 and the shell structure 11, and at the same time, the exhaust channel 14311 can effectively exhaust the air to avoid the formation of bubbles.
[0143] The exhaust channel 14311 is a variable diameter structure, that is, the exhaust channel 14311 is along the first direction of the connector 1, and the inner diameter of the exhaust channel 14311 on the second end 16 side is larger than the inner diameter of the exhaust channel 14311 on the first end 15 side. This gradual design helps to form a pressure gradient during the glue filling process, prompting air to be discharged from the exhaust channel 14311 more quickly. The first end 15 side can be exhausted quickly, and the aperture of the exhaust channel 14311 changes from wide to narrow along the direction from the first end 15 to the second end 16, which can slow down the exhaust speed and avoid adverse effects on the connector 1.
[0144] It should be noted that, for example, the first insulator 1431 is also provided with an avoidance groove 14314, which can expose the terminal assembly 12, etc., to ensure that the terminal assembly 12 is connected to the circuit board 2. A positioning column 14315 can be provided in the avoidance groove 14314, and a corresponding positioning hole is provided on the accessories of the electronic device (such as the circuit board 2). The positioning column 14315 is correspondingly plugged into the positioning hole, so as to realize the positioning or limiting connection between the shell structure 11 and the accessories of the electronic device, thereby improving the assembly efficiency. There can be two positioning columns 14315, so as to facilitate the rapid positioning connection with the circuit board 2 and improve the stability during positioning.
[0145] In this embodiment, if Figure 3 , Figure 8-Figure 12 As shown, the insulating structure 14 includes an insulating connection column 144, and the first insulator 1431 is connected to the second insulator 1432 through the insulating connection column 144. The insulating connection column 144 is located in the glue-containing space 1434, and the glue can wrap the insulating connection column 144, so that the waterproof layer 17 after curing is limitedly connected to the insulating connection column 144, which not only enhances the overall stability of the insulating structure 14, but also ensures that the glue can maintain the correct position and shape during the curing process.
[0146] In this embodiment, if Figure 3 , Figure 8-Figure 12 As shown, the second insulator 1432 is provided with two overflow glue channels 14321, and the two overflow glue channels 14321 are symmetrically arranged along the first direction of the connector, for example, one overflow glue channel 14321 is arranged at each end along the second direction of the connector 1 to disperse the overflow glue. The overflow glue channel 14321 is connected to the glue containing space 1434, so that part of the colloid can flow into the overflow glue channel 14321, increasing the contact area between the colloid and the insulating structure 14, and improving the reliability of the cured connection.
[0147] The overflow glue channel 14321 is configured to accommodate colloid. The colloid in the overflow glue channel 14321 and the colloid in the colloid containing space 14321 solidify to form a first waterproof layer 17, further filling the gap between the shell structure 11 and the insulating structure 14, effectively improving the waterproof effect and the connection effect.
[0148] Exemplarily, the glue overflow channel 14321 includes a first channel 143211 and two second channels 143212, the two second channels 143212 are symmetrically arranged along the thickness direction of the connector 1, and the second channels 143212 extend along the first direction of the connector 1 to facilitate the connection with the glue containing space 1434 to receive the flow of the glue.
[0149] The first channel 143211 extends along the second direction of the connector 1 and the thickness direction of the connector 1, so that the two second channels 143212 are connected through the first channel 143211, and the first channel 143211 is located on the side of the second insulator 1432 away from the first insulator 1431, so that the first waterproof layer 17 is of an irregular shape, further improving the reliability during connection.
[0150] In this embodiment, if Figure 3 , Figure 8-Figure 12 As shown, the third insulator 1433 is symmetrically provided with intercepting portions 14331 along the first direction of the connector 1 , and the intercepting portions 14331 protrude from the surface of the third insulator 1433 , and the intercepting portions 14331 are configured to intercept further flow of the colloid.
[0151] Exemplarily, the intercepting portion 14331 includes a first intercepting body 143311 and a second intercepting body 143312, which are spaced apart along the first direction of the connector 1, which not only helps to accurately control the filling range of the colloid and prevent defects in the colloid due to uneven flow during the curing process, but also can further block the colloid and prevent it from flowing to the head of the connector 1.
[0152] The connector 1 in this embodiment achieves high performance, high reliability and high stability through a carefully designed insulation structure 14 and glue filling process. This design not only optimizes the filling process of the colloid, but also improves the overall structural strength of the connector 1, providing a solid foundation for the wide application of the connector 1.
[0153] like Figure 1 , Fig.11 , Fig.13 As shown, the present application also provides an accessory for an electronic device, including a circuit board and a connector 1 as in any of the above embodiments, wherein a circuit board 2 is connected to the connector 1, and a stable connection between the circuit board 2 and the connector 1 is achieved by utilizing the connection method in the above embodiments, thereby improving the overall performance and reliability of the electronic device.
[0154] Exemplarily, a clearance opening 21 is provided on the circuit board 2, and a part of the shell structure 11 on the connector 1 can be embedded in the clearance opening 21, namely the first shell 112 and the second shell 112, which is conducive to reducing the dimension in the thickness direction and realizing a thin design. Another part of the shell structure 11 is attached to the circuit board 2, namely the connecting ear 1124 is attached to the circuit board 2, and a screw hole 22 is provided on the circuit board 2. One end of the fastener (not shown in the figure) passes through the connecting ear 1124 and is threadedly connected to the screw hole 22 to improve the stability of the circuit board 2 when connected to the connector 1. Among them, the fastener is, for example, a screw or a bolt, which is simple and easy to implement. Two screw holes 22 can be provided to be consistent with the connecting ear 1124 to achieve balance.
[0155] The circuit board 2 is provided with positioning holes 23, and the circuit board 23 is positioned and connected with the positioning posts 14315 of the connector 1 through the positioning holes 23. The number of the positioning holes 23 is consistent with the number of the positioning posts 14315, and they correspond one to one, so as to quickly position and improve the installation efficiency.
