Along the vertical direction, the main body 31 has a first height H1.

[0040] A metal frame 4 is mounted on the upper surface of the second circuit board P. The metal frame 4 has a hollow area 41 and a bottom frame 42 surrounding the outer periphery of the hollow area 41. The bottom frame 42 is in close contact with the upper surface of the second circuit board P, and the second electrical connector 3 is located within the hollow area 41. The bottom frame 42 includes a first side 421 and two opposing second sides 422.

An extension 43 extends horizontally from the first side 421 toward the first electrical connector 2 in the front-to-back direction. The extension 43 and the second side 422 are located in front of and behind the first side 421, respectively, to facilitate blanking of the metal frame 4 and the subsequent installation of the first and second electrical connectors 2 and 3. The extension 43 is in close contact with the lower surface of the first circuit board 12, and the projection of the extension 43 and the first electrical connector 2 partially overlap in the vertical direction. The electrical connector assembly also includes a support portion D. In this embodiment, support portion D is stamped separately from a metal plate 6. Support portion D is secured to the upper surface of extension portion 43. In the vertical direction, the sum of the heights of support portion D and extension portion 43 is a second height H2, with first height H1 being equal to second height H2. In other embodiments, support portion D may alternatively be secured to the lower surface of extension portion 43.

[0041] Two first bent portions 44 are formed by bending upward and extending from the first side 421. Both first bent portions 44 are connected to the front side of the first side 421. The two first bent portions 44 are located on the left and right sides of the extension 43, respectively. The projections of the first bent portions 44 and the projections of the extension 43 partially overlap in the left-right direction, further enhancing the strength of the extension 43.

[0043] like Figures 7 to 12FIG. 2 shows a second embodiment of the electronic module of the present invention. This differs from the first embodiment in that a plug-in portion 123 extends from the edge of the first circuit board 12 and is located in front of the first electrical connector 2. The electrical connector assembly also includes a third electrical connector 7, which is electrically connected to the second cable S2. The third electrical connector 7 also includes a slot 71, into which the plug-in portion 123 is inserted and electrically connected to the third electrical connector 7. The third electrical connector 7 is located below the first cable S1. The gland C and the third electrical connector 7 are also staggered in the front-to-back direction.

[0044] A support portion D protrudes downward from the lower surface of the extension portion 43. Along the vertical direction, the sum of the heights of the extension portion 43 and the support portion D is a second height H2, and the first height H1 is equal to the second height H2. In other embodiments, the support portion D may also protrude upward from the upper surface of the extension portion 43.

[0045] In summary, the electrical connector of the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0046] 1. By arranging the first electrical connector 2 to be fixed to the upper surface of the first circuit board 12, the extension portion 43 is closely attached to the lower surface of the first circuit board 12, and the projection of the extension portion 43 and the projection of the first electrical connector 2 partially overlap in the vertical direction, so that the extension portion 43 connected to the side of the metal frame 4 acts as the back plate of the first circuit board 12, supporting the first circuit board 12 upward, thereby preventing the first circuit board 12 from being subjected to downward pressure and thus deforming when the first electrical connector 2 is fixed to the upper surface of the first circuit board 12.

[0047] 2. By setting the main body 31 to have a first height H1, the sum of the heights of the support portion D and the extension portion 43 to be a second height H2, and the first height H1 being equal to the second height H2, it is avoided that when the first circuit board 12 is fixed to the second electrical connector 3 and the extension portion 43 respectively, the height of the main body 31 and the height of the extension portion 43 are not equal in the vertical direction, thereby preventing a gap from existing between the first circuit board 12 and the extension portion 43 or the second electrical connector 3, making it impossible for the first circuit board 12 to be arranged straight in the vertical direction, causing the first circuit board 12 to be easily deformed and damaged.

[0048] 3. Compared with the flat plate shape, by providing the first bent portion 44 that bends upward, the overall strength of the first side 421 can be increased, so that the first side 421 of the metal frame 4 is not easily deformed in the front-to-back direction and the left-to-right direction; at the same time, by providing the extension portion 43 and the two first bent portions 44, both of which are connected to the first side 421 of the metal frame 4, and the two first bent portions 44 are respectively located on the left and right sides of the extension portion 43, the first bent portion 44 indirectly enhances the strength of the extension portion 43, so that the extension portion 43 is not easily deformed in the front-to-back direction and the left-to-right direction, thereby avoiding the situation where the strength of the extension portion 43 is insufficient to support the first circuit board 12 when the first electrical connector 2 is installed downward to the first circuit board 12, thereby causing the first circuit board 12 to deform.

[0049] 4. By providing two second bending portions 45 that are bent upward from the two second side edges 422, the strength of the second side edges 422 is increased. At the same time, by providing two connecting portions 421a that are respectively located on the rear sides of the two first bending portions 44, the connecting portions 421a and the second bending portions 45 are staggered in the front-to-back direction to avoid the first bending portions 44 and the second bending portions 45 being connected or too close to each other, which increases the difficulty of manufacturing the metal frame 4. At the same time, with the help of the metal member 5 that is at least partially fixed to the connecting portion 421a, the strength of the two connecting portions 421a located on the left and right sides of the extension portion 43 is further increased, thereby indirectly enhancing the strength of the extension portion 43.

[0050] 5. By arranging the projection of the second electrical connector 3 in the vertical direction to be within the projection area of the metal plate 6, the metal plate 6 supports the second circuit board P upward, thereby preventing the second circuit board P from being deformed and damaged due to excessive force after the second electrical connector 3 is installed on the second circuit board P. At the same time, by arranging the projection of the metal plate 6 and the projection of the extension 43 to partially overlap in the vertical direction, the metal plate 6 indirectly supports the extension 43 and the first circuit board 12 above the extension 43 while supporting the second circuit board P, thereby preventing the extension 43 and the first circuit board 12 above the extension 43 from being deformed due to the small area and insufficient strength of the extension 43.

[0051] 6. In order to transmit more high-speed signals, a common technical approach is to increase the height of the cable connector so that the same cable connector can simultaneously connect to multiple rows of cables arranged in the vertical direction. Compared with the above approach, the present solution provides a plug-in portion 123 that is plugged into the slot 71 and electrically connected to the third electrical connector 7, and the third electrical connector 7 is located below the first cable S1. Therefore, while ensuring that the height of the cable connector installed on the first circuit board 12 in the vertical direction is constant, more cable connectors can be added for signal transmission, thereby increasing more high-speed signal transmission channels within the same height space.

[0052] 7. By arranging the first electrical connector 2 and the third electrical connector 7 to be staggered with the pressure cover C along the front-to-back direction, it is convenient to install the first electrical connector 2 and the third electrical connector 7 without moving the pressure cover C and the chip module 1 during subsequent installation and use, and it is convenient to replace damaged parts in the first electrical connector 2 and the third electrical connector 7.
