Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The application relates to a connector with a bent insertion gap fit contact quick positioning tool without height adjustment, and belongs to the technical field of electric connectors. BACKGROUND

[0002] Rectangular connectors are widely used in micro devices due to the advantages of compact structure, reliable butt joint, high-density arrangement and good weldability. For connectors with small core number and regular arrangement, considering the miniaturization of the connector, gap fit is usually adopted between the contact and the base, and the contact may shake, thereby affecting the consistency of the product butt joint size (height). Auxiliary interference technology is usually used to assist in fixing the contact, and the size parameters of the connector are ensured through glue curing. For the connector with the contact in the bent insertion form and the gap fit with the base, due to the large number of contacts and the long contact, the auxiliary interference technology can inhibit the axial movement of the contact to a certain extent, but cannot limit the axial rotation of the contact, resulting in the problems of difficulty in adjusting the tail end orientation of the contact after glue curing and poor height consistency of the contact. Therefore, the product cannot be used conventionally, and a tool that can effectively ensure the size of the product is urgently needed in production. SUMMARY

[0003] The application aims to solve the technical problem that the contact can be well positioned and clamped during the process of contact installation and height adjustment, the consistency of the product butt joint size can be well ensured, and the product quality can be improved.

[0004] In order to solve the above technical problems, the application adopts the following technical scheme: A connector with a bent insertion gap fit contact quick positioning tool without height adjustment is composed of an auxiliary installation mechanism and a sealing clamp. The auxiliary installation mechanism comprises a locking nut, a pressing plate, a positioning block, a positioning column C, a positioning column B, a base fixing block and a positioning column A. The locking nut is provided with a threaded hole A for fixing the pressing plate and the positioning block. The pressing plate and the positioning block are provided with a guide hole and a waist-shaped hole, and the parts are arranged in a stepped manner to avoid the contact, and the positioning block is provided with a groove for fixing the orientation of the contact. The positioning column C is provided with two external threads to realize the connection between the locking nut and the base fixing block, and gap fit with the waist-shaped hole. The positioning column B is gap fit with the guide hole and cooperates with the positioning column C to limit the position of the positioning block. The base fixing block is internally provided with a sunken cavity for positioning a product base, and is also internally provided with through hole A, through hole B and threaded hole B, which are connected with positioning column B, positioning column C and positioning column A to form a stable fixing structure; The positioning column A forms an interference fit with the through hole B and forms a guide limit with the fixing plate. The potting fixture comprises a fixing plate, a pin, a bottom plate and a screw. The fixing plate is internally provided with through hole C which forms a clearance fit with the positioning column A, and threaded hole C which is connected with the screw, the pin and the bottom plate, and the counterbore is used for fixing the pin. The pin is stepped and forms a contact piece fixing structure arranged according to the product structure with the counterbore, and forms an interference fit with the product contact piece, so that the contact piece is fixed after being pressed in to avoid axial movement and size deviation. The bottom plate is internally provided with a counterbore for limiting the screw and bearing the whole tool.

[0005] The beneficial effects of the above technical solution are: The application provides a method for quickly installing a contact piece of a contact piece gap fit connector between a contact piece arrangement rule and a base, and the method can realize convenient installation of the contact piece and quick disassembly of the fixture based on a discrete thin block and a stepped relief structure positioning block. A guide groove is arranged on the positioning block to fix the tail end of the contact piece. The potting fixture is designed with interference to axially fix the contact piece and ensure the axial size of the contact piece. Reasonable size design ensures reliable assembly of the connector.
