Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of electronic equipment, and in particular to a vehicle-mounted FFC connector. Background Art

[0002] The on-board FFC connector, or flexible flat cable connector, is a new type of data cable made of PET insulating material and extremely thin tinned flat copper wire, pressed together through a high-tech automated equipment production line. In the wide application of electronic equipment, the on-board FFC connector is a key component for realizing electrical signal transmission. Its performance directly affects the overall operation of the equipment. At present, the FFC connectors on the market have certain defects in many aspects.

[0003] In terms of electrical signal transmission, the current FFC connector's contact mechanism is often just a simple relative contact between copper sheets to conduct electrical signals. However, due to long-term force or plugging and unplugging, the contact pressure between the contact copper sheet and the conduction mechanism is easily affected by factors such as deformation, wear or temperature changes, resulting in reduced stability in signal transmission. Simple relative contact may also cause poor contact due to the deformation of the copper sheet, affecting the efficient transmission of electrical signals. In addition, for single-sided contact, once the copper sheet is deformed or broken, if the deformation of the contact surface caused by external factors (such as vibration, temperature changes, long-term use, etc.) cannot be effectively compensated, it is impossible to ensure that the contact pressure is always in the optimal range, thereby affecting the stability of the connection and the inability to continuously and stably transmit electrical signals.

Even if the contact copper sheet is deformed after long-term use, the elastic force of the spring sheet can still push its end up, so that the contact copper sheet continues to be close to the conductive mechanism to ensure the continuity of electrical transmission. When in use, the contact copper sheet and the spring sheet are always under pressure. This continuous elastic force can push the contact copper sheet to continue to be close to the conductive mechanism through the elasticity of the spring sheet when the vehicle vibrates, thereby maintaining the stability of the connection, and the contact copper sheet and the positioning seat form a relatively inclined The spring sheet and the contact copper sheet are relatively inclined to avoid damage caused by bending of the spring sheet when it is vertically set. When the temperature changes, the elasticity of the spring sheet can compensate for the slight deformation of the contact copper sheet due to thermal expansion and contraction, ensuring that the contact pressure is always maintained in the optimal range. With the cooperation of the contact copper sheet and the conductive mechanism, even when the temperature changes and the pressure of a single contact point changes, the other contact points can still maintain a stable connection, ensuring the continuity of the electrical signal transmission.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0018] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. All other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in the field without making creative work based on the embodiments of the present invention shall fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0019] See also Figures 1 to 9 An embodiment of the present invention provides a connector, which is mainly used in the scenario of connecting flexible flat cables. In this embodiment, the structure of the connector is improved to have the advantage of stable transmission. Specifically, taking the connection between flexible flat cables as an example, as a preferred solution in this embodiment, the connector is specifically a vehicle-mounted FFC connector, which can ensure conduction stability when connecting flexible flat cables.

[0020] See also Figures 1 to 9 The present invention provides a technical solution: a vehicle-mounted FFC connector, which is mainly used for connecting flexible flat cables.

[0021] It includes a conducting mechanism 9 and two positioning plates 1, wherein: An installation cavity is formed between the two positioning plates 1, and contact mechanisms 5 are provided on the opposite surfaces of the two positioning plates 1; The contact mechanism 5 includes a positioning seat 501, which is arranged on the positioning plate 1 and located in the installation cavity. One end of the positioning seat 501 is fixedly connected to a contact copper sheet 502, and the contact copper sheet 502 extends along a first direction. The other end of the contact copper sheet 502 is fixedly connected to a spring sheet 503, and the spring sheet 503 is arranged obliquely with the contact copper sheet 502. The end of the spring sheet 503 away from the contact copper sheet 502 abuts against the positioning plate 1. The conducting mechanism 9 is detachably connected to the mounting cavity, and is used to extend into the mounting cavity and electrically connect with the contact copper sheet 502 for electrical transmission.

[0022] Through the cooperation between the positioning seat 501 and the contact copper sheet 502, a relatively inclined angle is formed between the contact copper sheet 502 and the positioning seat 501, that is, the contact copper sheet 502 is inclined in the direction away from the positioning plate 1, and forms a certain angle with the positioning seat 501, so that when the conductive mechanism 9 enters the installation cavity, the contact copper sheet 502 is squeezed and relatively deformed, thereby closely fitting the surface of the conductive mechanism 9 to ensure stable transmission of electrical signals, and the spring sheet 503 is pushed outward at the end of the contact copper sheet 502. Even if the contact copper sheet 502 is deformed after long-term use, the elastic force of the spring sheet 503 can still push its end up, so that the contact copper sheet 502 continues to be close to the conductive mechanism 9 to ensure the continuity of electrical transmission. When in use, the contact copper sheet 502 and the spring sheet 503 are always in a compressed state. This continuous elastic force can push the contact copper sheet 502 to be continuously close to the conductive mechanism 9 through the elasticity of the spring sheet 503 when the vehicle vibrates, thereby maintaining the stability of the connection, and the contact copper sheet 502 and the positioning seat 501 forms a relatively inclined angle, and the spring piece 503 and the contact copper sheet 502 are also arranged at a relative inclination, which can avoid the spring piece 503 being bent vertically and easily caused by damage, and when there is a temperature change, the elasticity of the spring piece 503 can compensate for the slight deformation of the contact copper sheet 502 caused by thermal expansion and contraction, ensuring that the contact pressure is always maintained in the optimal range, and with the cooperation of the contact copper sheet 502 and the conductive mechanism 9, even when the temperature change causes the pressure of a single contact point 505 to change, the other contact points 505 can still maintain a stable connection, ensuring the continuity of the electrical signal transmission, and at the same time, contact mechanisms 5 are set on both positioning plates 1, and electrical signals are transmitted to the same conductive copper sheet 903 at the same time through two corresponding contact mechanisms 5, realizing dual-channel signal transmission, further improving the redundancy and stability of signal transmission, and having better applicability to complex working conditions in the vehicle environment, and also significantly improving the durability and reliability of the connector, ensuring that it can maintain high efficiency under vibration, temperature changes and long-term use.

[0023] The inclined spring clip 503 can provide a larger elastic deformation space when the connector is inserted, ensuring that the contact between the contact copper sheet 502 and the conductive mechanism 9 is tighter and more stable, and can effectively reduce the poor contact problem caused by vibration or external impact. The inclined spring clip 503 can evenly distribute stress during the installation process, reduce the wear of the single contact point 505, thereby extending the service life of the positioning plate 1 and the spring clip 503, and can reduce the metal fatigue of the spring clip 503. The inclined spring clip 503 is easier to position and fix during the assembly process, reducing the complexity and error rate of assembly, which can simplify the production process, improve production efficiency, and reduce manufacturing costs.

[0024] In this embodiment, the end of the positioning seat 501 is fixedly connected to the end of the contact copper sheet 502, providing a foundation for installation and fixation of the contact copper sheet 502, the spring 503 and the contact 505, and at the same time forming an inclined angle with the contact copper sheet 502, so that the contact copper sheet 502 has a specific deformation mode when the conductive copper sheet 903 is inserted, ensuring the accurate installation position of the contact copper sheet 502, the spring 503 and the contact 505, ensuring that the various components of the contact mechanism 5 work together to achieve stable electrical signal transmission. The contact copper sheet 502 is responsible for conducting electrical signals. Under the interaction between the positioning seat 501 and the conductive copper sheet 903, the contact copper sheet 502 is deformed to fit the surface of the conductive copper sheet 903 to achieve electrical signal transmission. As a key carrier for electrical signal transmission, the spring 503 is closely fitted with the conductive copper sheet 903 to ensure that the electrical signal can be transmitted efficiently and stably. The bottom of the contact copper sheet 502 is away from one end of the positioning seat 501, which provides an outward elastic force for the contact copper sheet 502. After the contact copper sheet 502 is deformed, its end can still be lifted up so that it maintains full contact with the conductive copper sheet 903, thereby enhancing the stability of the contact between the contact copper sheet 502 and the conductive copper sheet 903, compensating for the poor contact problem caused by the deformation of the contact copper sheet 502 due to long-term force or plugging and unplugging, and ensuring the reliability of electrical signal transmission. The contact 505 is fixedly connected to the top of the positioning seat 501. After the two positioning plates 1 are merged, the contacts 505 contact each other, and with the help of two contact mechanisms 5, the electrical signal of a conductive copper sheet 903 is transmitted at the same time, thereby realizing the contact of the contact 505 from both sides synchronously, further improving the stability of electrical signal transmission, and reducing the risk of affecting the normal transmission of electrical signals due to problems with single-sided contact.

[0025] In the above embodiment, as a preferred scheme, a swivel seat 2 is fixedly installed on both sides of the end of one of the positioning plates 1, and an adjustment seat 3 adapted to the swivel seat 2 is fixedly installed on both sides of the end of the other positioning plate 1. The inner wall of the adjustment seat 3 is rotatably connected to the outer surface of the swivel seat 2 through a rotating shaft. The positioning plate 1 serves as the basic supporting structure of the entire connector, providing installation and fixing positions for other components such as the contact mechanism 5, the installation mechanism 4, the transmission mechanism 6, the rebound mechanism 7 and the locking mechanism 8. The two positioning plates 1 cooperate with each other to jointly construct the main frame of the connector, and under the connection between the swivel seat 2 and the adjustment seat 3, the connector has a certain adjustable flexibility. The swivel seat 2 is installed on both sides of the end of one of the positioning plates 1, and cooperates with the adjustment seat 3. The rotatable connection between the two positioning plates 1 is realized through the rotating shaft. After the positioning plate 1 is opened, it is convenient to install the locking mechanism 8, and after closing, the locking mechanism 8 can be fully fixed. More specifically, since the flexible flat cable is connected by relatively flipping and opening the two positioning plates 1, the cable can be quickly installed and connected. When an opening is used to allow the flexible flat cable to pass into the installation cavity, the clamping of the flexible flat cable in the installation cavity is loose, which makes the connection unstable. When the connection is tight, it is easy to cause the flexible flat cable to bend and affect the connection, causing trouble for the installation. Therefore, by relatively flipping and opening the two positioning plates 1, the installation efficiency can be improved and the stability of the connection can be guaranteed. The push-type hard splicing joint is easy to fall off when used in a vibrating environment. The contact mechanism 5 in the installation cavity can automatically adjust the clamping force according to the thickness of the FFC to ensure that the connection will not have poor contact due to loose clamping, nor will the flexible flat cable bend or damaged due to tight clamping. In a vibrating environment such as a vehicle or industrial equipment, the flip opening and closing design can maintain the stability of the connection through the synergistic effect of the spring piece 503 and the contact mechanism 5, and reduce looseness or poor contact caused by vibration. The flip opening and closing setting is usually simpler than the structure of the hard splicing joint, reducing the number of parts and assembly steps, thereby reducing manufacturing costs.

[0026] In the above embodiment, as a preferred solution, it also includes a mounting mechanism 4, which includes a positioning groove 401, a clamping groove 402 and a positioning hole 403. The positioning groove 401 corresponds to the positioning seat 501 and is opened on the surface of the positioning plate 1 to install the positioning seat 501. The clamping groove 402 is opened on one side of the inner bottom wall of the positioning groove 401, and is used to install the spring piece 503. The positioning hole 403 is opened on the other side of the inner bottom wall of the positioning groove 401. The positioning groove 401 is opened on the contact surface of the two positioning plates 1 to accommodate and fix the positioning seat 501, provide an accurate installation position for the positioning seat 501 of the contact mechanism 5, ensure the accuracy and stability of the installation of the positioning seat 501, and the clamping groove 402 is opened on one side of the inner bottom wall of the positioning groove 401. The spring sheet 503 is fixed so that it maintains the correct position in the contact mechanism 5, and provides support for the spring sheet 503 to exert its elastic force on the contact copper sheet 502, ensuring that the spring sheet 503 can stably provide an outward elastic force for the contact copper sheet 502. Even if the contact copper sheet 502 is deformed, it can ensure that it is in full contact with the conductive copper sheet 903, thereby improving the reliability of electrical signal transmission. The positioning hole 403 is provided on the other side of the bottom wall of the positioning groove 401, and is plugged into and matched with the outer surface of the wire post 504, so as to accurately install the wire post 504 and establish a connection basis between the contact mechanism 5 and the transmission mechanism 6, thereby enhancing the accuracy and stability of the connection between the contact mechanism 5 and the transmission mechanism 6, and ensuring that the electrical signal can be smoothly transmitted from the contact mechanism 5 to the transmission mechanism 6.

[0027] See also Fig.11In this embodiment, as a preferred solution, the inner wall of the card slot 402 is fixedly connected with an elastic block 12, the elastic block 12 is arranged corresponding to the spring piece 503, and is located between the spring piece 503 and the contact copper sheet 502, and the cross section of the elastic block 12 is arranged in a polygonal shape; The elastic block 12 can be a rubber block or other elastic materials with polygonal configuration. The specific cross-section of the elastic block 12 is a triangle. The elastic block 12 is specifically a triangular prism, one side of which is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the slot 402, the second side abuts against the surface of the contact copper sheet 502, and the last side abuts against the surface of the spring sheet 503. By arranging the elastic block 12 in the slot 402, it is convenient to quickly locate the position of the spring sheet 503 when installing the contact copper sheet 502 and the spring sheet 503, and it also avoids the spring sheet 503 from shaking during use, and can play a role in the spring sheet 503. The elastic block 12 can play the role of secondary support, thereby increasing the service life of the spring piece 503 and avoiding metal fatigue fracture or deformation of the spring piece 503. Since it is used in an environment with rising temperature, the hard material of the spring piece 503 and the soft material of the elastic block 12 are matched so that the elastic block 12 supports the spring piece 503, thereby avoiding the direct use of the elastic block 12 resulting in insufficient heat support force of the elastic block 12. Therefore, the use of the elastic block 12 can improve the efficiency of installation and assembly, and can also avoid fatigue fracture of the spring piece 503. At the same time, it can also play a secondary support role for the contact copper sheet 502, thereby further improving stability.

[0028] See also Fig.10 In this embodiment, as a preferred solution, one end of the opposite surface of the two positioning plates 1 is fixedly connected with a rubber sheet 11, and the rubber sheet 11 is located on the side of the contact copper sheet 502 away from the end of the positioning seat 501, and is used for the two positioning plates 1 to clamp the conducting mechanism 9; The rubber sheet 11 is located at one end of the opposite surfaces of the two positioning plates 1, which can absorb the vibration and impact generated during the driving of the vehicle and reduce the impact on the contact copper sheet 502 and the conductive mechanism 9. The high friction coefficient of the rubber sheet 11 can increase the friction between the positioning plate 1 and the conductive mechanism 9 to prevent sliding or falling off under vibration or external force. Even in the absence of direct locking, the rubber sheet 11 can provide sufficient clamping force to ensure the stability of the connection. The use of locking components can be reduced by cooperating with the flip-set positioning plate 1. The sealing performance of the rubber sheet 11 can effectively prevent external pollutants such as dust and moisture from entering the contact area, protect the contact copper sheet 502 and the conductive mechanism 9, improve the environmental adaptability of the connector, and extend its service life. It is particularly suitable for complex environments such as vehicles and industrial equipment. The elastic properties of the rubber sheet 11 can assist in the positioning and fixing of the conducting mechanism 9 when the positioning plate 1 is flipped open and closed, thereby simplifying the installation process, improving installation efficiency, and reducing the difficulty of operation. It is suitable for scenarios that require frequent plugging and unplugging. The elastic properties of the rubber block can cooperate with the locking mechanism 8 to achieve quick connection and secondary locking of the conducting mechanism 9 when the positioning plate 1 is flipped open and closed. During the research and development, testing and upgrading of vehicle-mounted electronic equipment, connectors need to be frequently plugged and unplugged to replace modules or debug functions, which can improve the efficiency and convenience of testing. More specifically, connectors of vehicle-mounted cameras, sensors or control modules need to be plugged and unplugged multiple times for performance testing or software upgrades. At the same time, the elastic force of the rubber sheet 11 can also cooperate with the rebound mechanism 7 to make the positioning plate 1 relatively flipped, and can also provide a flexible connection for the FFC.

[0029] In the above embodiment, as a preferred solution, the contact mechanism 5 also includes a wire post 504, the top of the wire post 504 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the positioning seat 501, and the outer surface of the wire post 504 is plugged into the inner wall of the positioning hole 403. By fixing the top of the wire post 504 with the bottom of the positioning seat 501 and plugging the outer surface into the inner wall of the positioning hole 403, the contact mechanism 5 and the transmission mechanism 6 are connected to realize the construction of a conduction path for electrical signals from the contact mechanism 5 to the external line, thereby enhancing the accuracy and stability of the installation of the contact mechanism 5.

[0030] In the above embodiment, as a preferred solution, the outer surfaces of the two positioning plates 1 that are far away from each other are each provided with a plurality of transmission mechanisms 6, the transmission mechanism 6 comprising a fixing groove 601, a fixing ring 602 and a pin 603, the fixing groove 601 is opened on the outer surface of the positioning plate 1, the inner side wall of the fixing groove 601 is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the fixing ring 602, the inner side wall of the fixing ring 602 is sleeved with the outer surface of the wire column 504, the outer surface of the fixing ring 602 is fixedly connected to the end of the pin 603, the fixing groove 601 is opened on the outer surface of the positioning plate 1, and is used to fix the fixing ring 602, so as to provide a transmission mechanism. The fixing ring 602 provides a basic position for the installation of the structure 6, ensures the stability of the installation of the fixing ring 602, and further ensures the accuracy of the connection between the transmission mechanism 6 and the wire post 504 and the external line, and provides support for the stable transmission of the electrical signal. The inner wall of the fixing ring 602 is sleeved with the outer surface of the wire post 504, and the outer surface is fixedly connected to the end of the pin 603, which plays a connecting and transitional role between the wire post 504 and the pin 603, ensuring that the electrical signal is smoothly transmitted from the wire post 504 to the pin 603, realizing the effective connection between the internal components of the transmission mechanism 6, and ensuring the continuity and stability of the electrical signal transmission path.

[0031] In the above embodiment, as a preferred scheme, two rebound mechanisms 7 are arranged between the two positioning plates 1. The rebound mechanism 7 includes two limiting holes 701 and a compression spring 702. The two limiting holes 701 are respectively opened on the adjacent outer walls of the two positioning plates 1. The two ends of the compression spring 702 are respectively fixedly connected to the inner walls of the two limiting holes 701. The rebound mechanism 7 is composed of the limiting holes 701 and the compression spring 702. After the positioning frame 801 slides open, the elastic force of the compression spring 702 can be used to open the space between the two positioning plates 1, so as to facilitate the insertion or removal of the conduction mechanism 9.

[0032] In the above embodiment, as a preferred solution, the locking mechanism 8 includes a positioning frame 801, a guide hole 802, four guide blocks 803 and four guide grooves 804. The positioning frame 801 can be slidably connected to the outer wall of the positioning plate 1. The guide hole 802 is provided in the middle of the outer surface of the positioning frame 801. The four guide blocks 803 are respectively fixedly installed on both sides of the inner wall of the positioning frame 801. The four guide grooves 804 are respectively provided on both sides of the outer surfaces of the two positioning plates 1. The four guide blocks 803 correspond to the inner walls of the guide grooves 804 and can slide respectively. The positioning frame 801 can be slidably connected to the outer wall of the positioning plate 1, and the locking operation of the two positioning plates 1 is realized by sliding. It is the main executive component of the locking mechanism 8. The guide hole 802 is opened in the middle of the outer surface of the positioning frame 801, which is used to install the transmission mechanism 9. At the same time, it provides a guiding effect for the sliding of the guide block 803 to ensure that the installation position of the transmission mechanism 9 is accurate. Therefore, the positioning frame 801 is pushed to drive the guide block 803 to slide, so that the positioning frame 801 can slide along the shape of the guide groove 804. The guide groove 804 is divided into three areas. First, the end away from the positioning frame 801 is the first stage, the middle part is the second stage, and the end close to the positioning frame 801 is the third stage. The guide groove 804 opened on the surface of the upper positioning plate 1 is opened in the third stage. A through slot is provided, so that after the guide block 803 moves to the through slot position, the upper positioning plate 1 can bounce the positioning plate 1 upward under the elastic force of the compression spring 702. Therefore, in the locking process, the upper positioning plate 1 first uses the through slot to clamp the guide block 803 into the guide slot 804, and first slide the positioning frame 801 to make the guide block 803 slide in the third stage. Since the two guide slots 804 are relatively close in distance, the two positioning plates 1 are in a relatively far state, which makes it easy to drive the transmission mechanism 9 to enter between the two positioning plates 1 and make initial contact with the contact mechanism 5. When the guide block 803 enters the guide slot 804 in the second stage At this time, as the distance between the guide grooves 804 gradually approaches, the two positioning plates 1 can be relatively close, and then gradually clamped as the conductive mechanism 9 gradually goes deeper, until the guide block 803 enters the first stage of the guide groove 804, so that the two positioning plates 1 are fully clamped, ensuring that the contact copper sheet 502 can fully contact the conductive copper sheet 903 to ensure the transmission of electronic signals. When the conductive mechanism 9 needs to be pulled out, the locking mechanism 8 can drive the conductive mechanism 9 to be pulled outward, and then the guide block 803 is passed through the first stage, the second stage and the third stage in sequence, until the upper positioning plate 1 is ejected outward with the help of the through groove, so that the conductive mechanism 9 is pulled outward.

[0033] In the above embodiment, as a preferred solution, the inner wall of the guide hole 802 is slidably connected with a conducting mechanism 9, and the conducting mechanism 9 includes a fixing seat 901, a limiting block 902, a plurality of conducting copper sheets 903 and a transmission line 904. The fixing seat 901 is detachably connected to the inner wall of the guide hole 802, the limiting block 902 is fixedly connected to the end of the fixing seat 901, and the plurality of conducting copper sheets 903 are respectively fixedly installed on the top and bottom of the outer surface of the fixing seat 901. The end of the transmission line 904 is plugged into the end of the limiting block 902, and the end of the transmission line 904 is electrically connected to the ends of the plurality of conducting copper sheets 903. The fixing seat 901 is detachably connected to the inner wall of the guide hole 802, providing a basis for installation and fixation of the limiting block 902, the conducting copper sheets 903 and the transmission line 904. Ensure the stability of the conduction mechanism 9 in the guide hole 802, ensure the accurate installation position of each component of the conduction mechanism 9, enable the conduction mechanism 9 to work normally, and realize the effective conduction of electrical signals. The limit block 902 is fixedly connected to the end of the fixing seat 901, and is used to limit the position of the transmission line 904. The conductive copper sheet 903 is installed on the top and bottom of the outer surface of the fixing seat 901, and is responsible for conducting electrical signals. Together with the contact copper sheet 502 and the transmission line 904, it constitutes an electrical signal transmission path, and serves as a transmission carrier for electrical signals inside the conduction mechanism 9, ensuring that the electrical signal can be smoothly transmitted inside the connector, and achieving good electrical connection performance. The transmission line 904 realizes the transmission of electrical signals from the inside of the connector to the external device, ensuring that the electrical signal transmission function of the entire connector is fully realized.

[0034] In the present invention, the working steps of the device are as follows: 1. First, install the positioning plate 1 below at a suitable position on the circuit board, and then solder and fix the pin 603. The swivel seat 2 is fixedly installed on both sides of the end of one of the positioning plates 1, and the adjustment seat 3 is fixedly installed on both sides of the end of the other positioning plate 1. The adjustment seat 3 is rotatably connected to the swivel seat 2 through the rotating shaft, and the two positioning plates 1 are opened to create operating space for the subsequent installation of other components.

[0035] 2. Place the positioning seat 501 in the positioning groove 401 opened on the contact surface of the positioning plate 1 to ensure accurate installation. Fix the spring piece 503 in the slot 402 on one side of the bottom wall of the positioning groove 401 to make it correctly positioned and provide stable elastic force for the contact copper sheet 502. After the top of the wire column 504 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the positioning seat 501, insert the outer surface of the wire column 504 into the positioning hole 403 on the other side of the bottom wall of the positioning groove 401 to complete the installation of the contact mechanism 5 on the positioning plate 1, and at the same time establish the connection foundation between the contact mechanism 5 and the subsequent transmission mechanism 6; 3. Next, fix the two ends of the compression spring 702 to the inner walls of the two limiting holes 701 respectively to complete the installation of the rebound mechanism 7, so as to provide assistance for the subsequent opening of the positioning plate 1; 4. Then, the positioning frame 801 is pushed to drive the guide block 803 to slide, so that the guide block 803 slides in the third stage of the guide groove 804. At this time, the two positioning plates 1 are relatively far away, and the conductive mechanism 9 is placed between the two positioning plates 1 to make it initially contact with the contact mechanism 5. The positioning frame 801 is continued to be pushed to make the guide block 803 enter the second stage of the guide groove 804. As the distance between the guide grooves 804 gradually approaches, the two positioning plates 1 are relatively close, and the conductive mechanism 9 gradually goes deeper, driving the contact copper sheet 502 and the conductive copper sheet 903 to gradually fit together, until the guide block 803 enters the first stage of the guide groove 804, the two positioning plates 1 are fully clamped, and the contact copper sheet 502 and the conductive copper sheet 903 are fully in contact, so as to achieve stable transmission of electrical signals; 5. Finally, when the transmission mechanism 9 needs to be pulled out, the locking mechanism 8 is pulled to drive the transmission mechanism 9 to move outward, and the guide block 803 passes through the first stage, the second stage and the third stage of the guide groove 804 in sequence. When the guide block 803 moves to the through groove position of the third stage of the guide groove 804 on the surface of the upper positioning plate 1, the upper positioning plate 1 bounces upward under the elastic force of the compression spring 702, and the transmission mechanism 9 can be pulled out.
