Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention is applied to the technical field of test carriers, and in particular relates to a BTB connector buckling device. Background Art

[0002] BTB connectors are also called board-to-board connectors. Board-to-board connectors are connector products with stronger transmission capabilities among all types of connector products. They are mainly used in power systems, communication networks, industrial automation, medical equipment, office equipment, home appliances, military manufacturing and other industries. At present, most electronic products on the market are modularly assembled. Each module has an FPC or PCB, and each module connects the PCB and FPC together through a BTB connector, and transmits electrical signals through the BTB connector to make the electronic products run. Since the BTB connector is very small, it has male and female heads, and the FPC is flexible, it is difficult to buckle the male and female heads of the BTB. The existing BTB buckling device mainly relies on pneumatics, putting the FPC into the positioning groove, using vacuum suction to suck it, and then flipping the cylinder to make it buckle, so the whole device is relatively large and the cost is high. The FPC status of the product is not determined in the research and development stage, and the pneumatic device cannot be used after it is manufactured, which will cause waste. If a BTB connector fastening device with a simple structure, which does not require power supply and air source, and can realize pressing and stripping actions by switching on and off the cover, and then uses a small partition to press the male connection end to prevent rebound during the fastening process, can be designed, the above problems can be solved.

The partition is slidably matched with the limiting groove through a partition handle, and the end of the partition is matched with the male connecting end of the product on the male pressing groove.

[0008] Furthermore, a bending block is provided on one side of the end of the partition, and the bending block cooperates with the female connector of the product.

[0009] Furthermore, a floating spring is provided between the partition and an end of the fixed plate away from the product, and the partition is in floating cooperation with the fixed plate through the floating spring.

[0013] Furthermore, a return spring is provided between the positioning pin and the positioning base, and the return spring drives the positioning pin to cooperate with the plurality of positioning holes.

[0014] The beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows: since the FPC on the product is elastic, it is easy to rebound and detach during the pressing process, so one of the FPCs needs to be fixed, and the FPC is pressed by a side-pushed partition to prevent rebound, and then the female head is buckled onto the male head to effectively prevent it from falling off during the pressing process. Moreover, since this product requires the FPC to be buckled and bent on the camera housing, multiple directions are restricted, the flip module can move horizontally, and the buckling and separation and stripping are achieved through the linkage cooperation of the flip module and the positioning module, so as to prevent the entire module from swinging at will and effectively prevent the product FPC from being damaged during movement.
