Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of connector technology, and more particularly to an industrial gateway female connector that facilitates line routing. Background Technology

[0002] The most common connection method of connectors is to use pin headers and female headers to achieve electrical connection between the upper PCB board and the lower PCB board. In related technologies, the female header of the connector includes a base and conductive plates extending from both ends of the base. Parts of the two conductive plates protrude towards each other and are used to clamp and fix the pin headers.

[0003] Existing pin header connectors generally connect by inserting and removing pins and sockets without any other auxiliary fixing or locking structures. During use, the pins and sockets are easily separated by external force, leading to an open circuit. To prevent poor contact, the clamping force of the two conductive plates holding the pins is generally large. Therefore, a large force is often required during the insertion and removal of the pins. This can scratch the gold plating layer on the pins. Once the gold plating layer is scratched, the exposed pins are prone to oxidation or contamination, which reduces the stability and reliability of the electrical connection and results in a short service life for the pin header connector.

[0004] Therefore, we have made improvements to this by proposing an industrial gateway female connector that facilitates line convergence. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide an industrial gateway female connector that facilitates line routing, thereby solving the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0006] To achieve the above-mentioned objectives, this invention provides an industrial gateway female connector that facilitates line routing, comprising a base and conductive terminals. The conductive terminals are fixedly installed inside the base, and male pins are installed inside the conductive terminals. Connecting frames are fixedly installed on both sides of the base, and a foolproof component is connected to the upper end of the connecting frame. The foolproof component is fixedly connected to the conductive terminals, and an anti-disengagement component is connected to the lower end of the connecting frame. The conductive terminals include a insertion frame, and a pin tail is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the insertion frame. Locking blocks are provided on the front and rear sides of the insertion frame, and the locking blocks are snapped into limiting slots. Spring contacts are connected to the left and right sides of the insertion frame, and the anti-disengagement component penetrates the bottom of the base and clamps and is installed on both sides of the spring contacts.

[0007] As a further embodiment of the present invention, the base includes a rubber core, a base plate is fixedly installed at the bottom end of the rubber core, a plurality of inner cylinders are fixedly installed at the upper end of the base plate, limit slots are provided on the front and rear sides of the inner cylinders, sliding grooves coinciding with the positions of the spring pieces are provided on the left and right sides of the inner cylinders, a through hole is provided in the middle of the base plate, a positioning post is provided protruding from the bottom surface of the base plate, a top plate is movably installed at the upper end of the rubber core, and anti-foolproof components are fixedly connected to the middle of the two sides of the top plate, and the bottom end of the anti-foolproof components is fixedly connected to the middle of the rubber core through a connecting bracket.

[0008] As a further embodiment of the present invention, the spring is V-shaped in general, with the upper end of the spring separated from the insert frame and the bottom end fixedly connected to the insert frame, and a groove provided on the outer side of the spring.

[0009] As a further embodiment of the present invention, the anti-detachment component includes a mounting frame, the mounting frame having multiple positioning holes in the middle, multiple columns connected to the upper end of the mounting frame, a crossbar connected to the upper end of each column, a roller mounted at the end of the crossbar, the roller being rotatably connected to a groove, two first spring plates provided at both ends of the mounting frame, the two first spring plates being connected to the two ends of the mounting frame in a '<>' shape, one on the left and one on the right, the upper end of the first spring plate being hinged to a connecting frame, a first pressure plate being fixedly installed in the middle of the first spring plate, and a first spring connecting the upper and lower sections of the first spring plate.

[0010] As a further embodiment of the present invention, the foolproof component includes two second spring plates, which are connected to the two ends of the top plate in a left-right "<>" shape. A second pressure plate is fixedly installed in the middle of the second spring plate, and a second spring is connected between the upper and lower sections of the second spring plate.

[0011] The upper end of the second spring has a threaded hole, and a bolt is threaded inside the threaded hole. The bottom end of the bolt is movably connected to the second spring plate.

[0012] As a further embodiment of the present invention, both sides of the top plate are connected with a surrounding edge, and the height of the surrounding edge is half the height of the rubber core.

[0013] As a further embodiment of the present invention, the number of columns and through holes is consistent, and the columns are inserted into the through holes at corresponding positions.

[0014] As a further embodiment of the present invention, notches are provided on both sides of the base, and the anti-detachment component and the anti-mistake component are embedded in the notches.

[0015] The industrial gateway female connector provided by this invention, which facilitates line consolidation, has the following advantages:

[0016] 1. By installing an anti-disengagement component at the bottom of the base, the roller presses upward from the bottom of the spring, connecting and fixing the spring to the male pin, preventing poor contact. At the same time, since the force of the roller acts on the groove, the inner side of the groove and the gold plating layer of the male pin will not be scratched, avoiding oxidation or contamination of the exposed parts of the male pin and conductive terminals, which would affect their conductivity and ensure the overall service life of the female connector. When it is necessary to pull out the male pin, press the first pressure plate on both sides at the same time, push the column and roller downward, and release the spring and the male pin clamped in the middle. This makes it easier to insert and remove the male pin and also prevents the male pin from being scratched or bent during insertion and removal.

[0017] 2. By connecting the top plate with edging on both sides and the top plate with anti-misalignment components in the middle of both sides, the top plate can be pressed upward by squeezing the anti-misalignment components, so that multiple male pins can be better aligned when inserted, avoiding the phenomenon of bent or broken pins when the male pins are inserted in the wrong position. At the same time, a bolt is set at the upper end of the second spring. When the male pin is inserted into the conductive terminal, part of it extends beyond the top surface of the base. This part extending beyond the top surface of the base is prone to oxidation or contamination. At this time, the height of the second spring is controlled by the tightness of the bolt, thereby raising the top plate to a certain height. The edging and the rubber core protect the male pins and conductive terminals, preventing oxidation or contamination of conductive terminals, male pins and other conductive parts.

[0029] The specific embodiments of the present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and examples. The following examples are for illustrative purposes only and should not be construed as limiting the scope of the invention.

[0030] like Figures 1-9 As shown, this embodiment proposes an industrial gateway female connector that facilitates line routing, including a base 1 and conductive terminals 2. The conductive terminals 2 are fixedly installed inside the base 1, and male pins 6 are installed inside the conductive terminals 2. Connecting frames 5 are fixedly installed in the center of both sides of the base 1. A foolproof component 4 is connected to the upper end of the connecting frame 5 and is fixedly connected to the conductive terminals 2. An anti-disengagement component 3 is connected to the lower end of the connecting frame 5. The conductive terminals 2 include a insertion frame 21. A pin tail 23 is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the insertion frame 21. Locking blocks 22 are provided on the front and rear sides of the insertion frame 21. The locking blocks 22 are snapped into the limiting slots 18. Spring pieces 24 are connected to the left and right sides of the insertion frame 21. The anti-disengagement component 3 penetrates the bottom of the base 1 and is clamped and installed on both sides of the spring pieces 24.

[0031] The base 1 includes a rubber core 11. A base plate 14 is fixedly installed at the bottom end of the rubber core 11. Multiple inner cylinders 17 are fixedly installed at the top end of the base plate 14. Limiting slots 18 are provided on the front and rear sides of the inner cylinders 17. Sliding grooves 19 that coincide with the positions of the spring pieces 24 are provided on the left and right sides of the inner cylinders 17. A through hole 15 is provided in the middle of the base plate 14. A positioning post 16 is provided protruding from the bottom surface of the base plate 14. A top plate 12 is movably installed at the top end of the rubber core 11. Anti-foolproof components 4 are fixedly connected to the middle of both sides of the top plate 12. The bottom end of the anti-foolproof components 4 is fixedly connected to the middle of the rubber core 11 through a connecting bracket 5. The rubber core 11, the top plate 12, and the base plate 1... The 4-stroke rubber coating wraps around the conductive terminal 2. The holding force of the base 1 ensures the stability of the female connector after assembly. The bottom of the base plate 14 is provided with a through hole 15 connected to the column 33 and a positioning post 16 sleeved with the positioning hole 32, thereby guiding the anti-detachment component 3. This allows the anti-detachment component 3 to extend and retract along the through hole 15 inside the base 1 to clamp the conductive terminal 2. The sleeved positioning hole 32 and positioning post 16 can fix the position of the anti-detachment component 3, maintain the clamping effect of the roller 35 on the conductive terminal 2, and avoid the problem of separation or poor contact between the conductive terminal 2 and the male pin 6.

[0032] The spring 24 is V-shaped. The upper end of the spring 24 is separated from the insertion frame 21, and the bottom end is fixedly connected to the insertion frame 21. The outer side of the spring 24 is provided with a groove 25. The male pin 6 is inserted into the middle of the spring 24 from top to bottom. Under the pressure of the roller 35 on the spring 24, the spring 24 and the male pin 6 are tightly connected, which avoids wear on the conductive layer on the male pin 6 and the spring 24 when the male pin 6 is inserted and pulled out, thus ensuring the conductivity of the conductive terminal 2 and the male pin 6.

[0033] The anti-detachment component 3 includes a mounting frame 31. Multiple positioning holes 32 are provided in the middle of the mounting frame 31. Multiple uprights 33 are connected to the upper end of the mounting frame 31. A crossbar 34 is connected to the upper end of each upright 33. A roller 35 is installed at the end of the crossbar 34 and rolls within a groove 25. Two first spring plates 36 are provided at both ends of the mounting frame 31, connected to the two ends of the mounting frame 31 in a left-right configuration. The upper end of each first spring plate 36 is hinged to a connecting frame 5. A first pressure plate 37 is fixedly installed in the middle of each first spring plate 36. A first spring 38 connects the upper and lower sections of each first spring plate 36. Multiple uprights are connected to the mounting frame 31. 33. The column 33 is installed in the gap of the limiting slot 18. Through the limiting slot 18, the roller 35 is pressed onto the spring piece 24, which improves the stability and reliability of the electrical connection and extends the service life of the pin header and female header connector. The first spring plate 36 connected to both ends of the mounting bracket 31 is connected to the upper end of the connecting bracket 5. When the first pressure plate 37 is under force, it squeezes the first spring plate 36 to deform and pushes the mounting bracket 31 downward. The column 33 and roller 35 connected to the mounting bracket 31 slide down along the surface of the spring piece 24, opening the opening of the spring piece 24. This makes it easy for the male pin 6 to be inserted and pulled out of the spring piece 24, avoiding the connector from becoming too tight to be separated under force and the connection from being difficult to pull out, which could lead to a circuit break. The operation is simple.

[0034] The foolproof component 4 includes two second spring plates 41, which are connected to the two ends of the top plate 12 in a left-right configuration. A second pressure plate 42 is fixedly installed in the middle of the second spring plate 41. A second spring 43 is connected between the upper and lower sections of the second spring plate 41. A screw hole 44 is provided at the upper end of the second spring 43, and a bolt 45 is threaded into the screw hole 44. The bottom end of the bolt 45 is movably connected to the second spring plate 41. A rim 13 is connected to both sides of the edge of the top plate 12. The height of the rim 13 is half the height of the rubber core 11. The second spring plate 41 is connected to the conductive terminal 2 and the connecting... In the middle of the connector 5, the second spring plate 41 is popped upward by pressing the second pressure plate 42, and the top plate 12 is lifted away from the top of the core 11, which facilitates the insertion and installation of the male pin 6 and avoids damage due to deviation during the installation of the male pin 6. The second spring plate 41 and the second pressure plate 42 are connected by a bolt 45. The pop-up height of the second spring plate 41 is positioned by the bolt 45, which facilitates the extension of the upper end of the core 11 by the edge 13 connected on the top plate 12, and protects the uninserted part of the upper end of the male pin 6, preventing oxidation damage to the part of the male pin 6 that is not inserted into the conductive terminal 2.

[0035] The number of uprights 33 and through holes 15 are consistent, and the uprights 33 are inserted into the through holes 15 at the corresponding positions. When the uprights 33 are installed in the middle of the two limiting slots 18, the two rollers 35 at the upper end of the uprights 33 respectively squeeze the spring pieces 24 inside the two limiting slots 18, press the spring pieces 24 tightly and fix them on the surface of the male pin 6, so as to avoid poor contact between the spring pieces 24 and the male pin 6.

[0036] The base 1 has notches on both sides, and the anti-detachment component 3 and the foolproof component 4 are embedded in the notches. The notches of the base 1 can be used to install the anti-detachment component 3 and the foolproof component 4, so as to avoid the anti-detachment component 3 and the foolproof component 4 protruding from the surface of the base 1 and affecting the installation of the base 1.

[0037] Specifically, when using this convenient industrial gateway female connector, the following steps are taken: The base 1 has an anti-disengagement component 3 installed at its bottom. Rollers 35 press upwards from the bottom of the spring 24, connecting and fixing the spring 24 to the male pin 6 to prevent poor contact. This also prevents scratching of the gold plating layer, avoiding oxidation or contamination of the exposed male pin 6 and conductive terminals 2, thus ensuring the overall lifespan of the female connector. Furthermore, when the male pin 6 needs to be removed, pressing the first pressure plates 37 on both sides simultaneously lowers the column 33 and rollers 35, releasing the spring 24 from the clamped male pin 6. This makes inserting and removing the male pin 6 easier and prevents scratching or bending during insertion and removal. The anti-misalignment component 4 presses the top plate 12 upwards, allowing for better alignment of multiple male pins 6 during insertion, preventing damage to the male pins. When the pin is inserted incorrectly, bent or broken pins may occur. A bolt 45 is installed at the upper end of the second spring 43. For the portion of the male pin 6 that extends beyond the conductive terminal 2, the second pressure plate 42 is pressed. After the top plate 12 contacts the top surface of the male pin 6, the bolt 45 is rotated to determine the position of the second pressure plate 42, preventing the second spring plate 41 from bending back. This protects the portion of the male pin 6 that extends beyond the conductive terminal 2, preventing oxidation or contamination of conductive parts such as the conductive terminal 2 and the male pin 6. This effectively improves the contact stability, contact reliability, insertion and extraction force, and insertion and extraction life of the female connector in industrial gateway applications. It also prevents misalignment when the terminal and male pin are inserted, preventing poor contact, scratches on the gold plating layer, and decreased conductivity.
