The embodiments described in the following exemplary embodiments do not represent all embodiments consistent with the present disclosure.

[0035] In the related art, the sealing member of the connector assembly can be arranged at the rear of the substrate, and the substrate and the main iron shell are sealed by the sealing member, thereby achieving sealing of the connector assembly.

[0036] However, the seal is arranged at the tail of the opposite edge of the substrate, which will cause the seal to be easily deformed during assembly, thereby losing the sealing effect. In addition, under a certain water pressure environment, the seal will deform under the action of water pressure, resulting in the failure of the sealing effect.

[0037] In order to solve the above technical problems, according to an embodiment of the present disclosure, a connector assembly is provided, which includes: a first shell, the first shell includes a first opening; a substrate, the substrate is arranged in the first shell, the substrate includes a connecting end, the connecting end faces the first opening, and the connecting end is connected to an external device via the first opening; a first sealing member, the first sealing member is arranged between the first shell and the substrate; and a first insulating member, the first insulating member is arranged on the substrate, and the first insulating member is against one side of the first sealing member; wherein, compared with the first sealing member, the first insulating member is farther away from the first opening.

[0038] It can be understood that the connector assembly involved in the present disclosure can be applicable to any terminal listed below.

[0039] It is understandable that the terminal involved in the present disclosure may also be referred to as a terminal device, a user equipment (User Equipment, UE), a mobile station (Mobile Station, MS), a mobile terminal (Mobile Terminal, MT), etc., which is a device that provides voice and / or data connectivity to users. For example, the terminal may be a handheld device with a wireless connection function, a vehicle-mounted device, etc. At present, some examples of terminals are: a smart phone (Mobile Phone), a pocket computer (Pocket Personal Computer, PPC), a handheld computer, a personal digital assistant (Personal Digital Assistant, PDA), a laptop computer, a tablet computer, a wearable device, or a vehicle-mounted device, etc. In addition, when it is a vehicle-to-everything (V2X) communication system, the terminal device may also be a vehicle-mounted device. It should be understood that the embodiments of the present disclosure do not limit the specific technology and specific device form adopted by the terminal.

[0040] Figure 1 It is a schematic structural diagram of a connector assembly according to an exemplary embodiment. Figure 2 It is a schematic structural diagram of a connector assembly with a first shell removed according to an exemplary embodiment.

[0041] In some embodiments, Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the connector assembly may include: a first housing 1 , a substrate 2 , a first sealing member 3 and a first insulating member 5 .

[0042] The substrate 2 may be a board body of a connector component provided with a connection terminal 21, through which the connector component can be electrically connected to an external connector. Exemplarily, the connector component may be a universal serial bus Type-C interface (Type-C).

[0043] The first shell 1 may be provided with a first opening 12, and the connector assembly may be connected to an external device via the first opening 12. For example, the external device may enter the first shell 1 via the first opening 12 to achieve connection, and the connection end 21 of the connector assembly may also extend out of the first shell 1 via the first opening 12 to achieve connection with the external device.

[0044] The substrate 2 may be disposed in the first housing 1 , and the first housing 1 may serve as a shell of the substrate 2 and protect the substrate 2 .

[0045] The substrate 2 may include a connection end 21, which may face the first opening 12 of the connector assembly, the connector assembly may be connected to an external device through the connection end, the connection end 21 may be connected to the external device via the first opening, and the connection end 21 is an end of the substrate 2 electrically connected to an external connector. The first sealing member 3 may be disposed between the first housing 1 and the substrate 2, and seal the gap between the first housing 1 and the substrate 2, thereby preventing liquid or water vapor from entering the interior of the electronic device through the gap between the first housing 1 and the substrate 2.

[0046] The first sealing member 3 may include a first side away from the connection end 21, the first insulating member 5 may be disposed on the substrate 2, and the first insulating member 5 may abut against the first side of the first sealing member 3, and the first insulating member 5 may be away from the first opening 12 compared to the first sealing member 3, so that the first insulating member 5 can provide support for the first sealing member 3 in a direction parallel to the substrate 2. When the pressure on the side of the first sealing member 3 close to the first opening increases, illustratively, when the electronic device with the connector assembly falls into water, the side of the first sealing member 3 facing the first opening will be subjected to pressure parallel to the substrate 2, and the first insulating member 5 can prevent the first sealing member 3 from deforming by supporting the first sealing member 3, thereby preventing the first sealing member 3 from losing its sealing effect due to deformation, thereby improving the sealing reliability of the connector assembly.

[0047] In order to avoid electrical connection between the substrate 2 and the first shell 1 , the first insulating member 5 may have insulating properties. For example, the first insulating member 5 may be a plastic member.

[0048] In some embodiments, Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the first shell 1 surrounds the substrate 2, and there is a gap between the first shell 1 and the outer surface of the substrate 2. The first seal 3 can be connected with the substrate 2 by interference fit, thereby achieving a sealed connection between the first seal 3 and the substrate 2, preventing liquid or water vapor from entering the interior of the electronic device from the gap between the first seal 3 and the substrate 2; the first seal 3 can be connected with the first shell 1 by interference fit, thereby achieving a sealed connection between the first seal 3 and the first shell 1, preventing liquid or water vapor from entering the interior of the electronic device from the gap between the first seal 3 and the first shell 1. And by the above arrangement, the first seal 3 can seal the gap between the first shell 1 and the outer surface of the substrate 2, thereby preventing liquid or water vapor from entering the interior of the electronic device from the gap between the first shell 1 and the substrate 2.

[0049] In some embodiments, the first seal 3 can be bonded to the substrate 2 to achieve a sealed connection between the first seal 3 and the substrate 2, preventing liquid or water vapor from entering the interior of the electronic device through the gap between the first seal 3 and the substrate 2; the first seal 3 can be bonded to the first shell 1 to achieve a sealed connection between the first seal 3 and the first shell 1, preventing liquid or water vapor from entering the interior of the electronic device through the gap between the first seal 3 and the first shell 1.

[0050] In some embodiments, Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the first insulating member 5 can be integrally formed with the substrate 2, so that the first insulating member 5 and the substrate 2 form a fixed connection, and then the first insulating member 5 can stabilize the position and shape of the first sealing member 3 by supporting the first sealing member 3, thereby preventing the first sealing member 3 from deforming, resulting in a gap between the first sealing member 3 and the first shell 1 or the first sealing member 3 and the substrate, thereby preventing the sealing effect from being lost, thereby improving the sealing reliability of the connector assembly.

[0051] In some embodiments, Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the first insulating member 5 may include one or more through holes 51 , one end of the through hole 51 is connected to the first sealing member 3 , and the other end of the through hole 51 is arranged on a side of the first insulating member 5 away from the substrate.

[0052] The first sealing member 3 can be formed by a glue dispensing process, and the colloid can flow into the glue dispensing space formed by the substrate 2, the first shell 1 and the first insulating member 5 through the through hole 51, so that the first sealing member 3 can be formed in the glue dispensing space.

[0053] Furthermore, since the first seal 3 is located in the glue dispensing space formed by the substrate 2, the first shell 1 and the first insulating member 5, the deformation of the first seal 3 caused by collisions can be reduced during the production process of the connector assembly, thereby reducing the loss of sealing effect of the first seal 3 due to deformation, thereby improving the reliability of the first seal 3.

[0054] Exemplarily, the through hole 51 may be an inclined opening structure formed by chamfering the edge of the first insulating member 5 .

[0055] In some embodiments, the through hole 51 may include a glue injection hole 511 and an exhaust hole 512. The glue injection hole 511 allows the colloid to flow into the glue dispensing space formed by the substrate 2, the first housing 1 and the first insulating member 5, and the gas in the glue dispensing space can be discharged from the exhaust hole 512, so that the first sealing member 3 can be formed in the glue dispensing space.

[0056] The diameter of the glue injection hole 511 may be larger than the diameter of the exhaust hole 512, so as to facilitate the injection of glue into the glue dispensing space through the glue injection hole during the production process of the connector assembly. When the glue injection hole 511 and the exhaust hole 512 are non-circular holes such as square holes or triangular holes, the diameter of the glue injection hole 511 and the exhaust hole 512 may refer to the side length or diagonal length of the hole cross section of the glue injection hole 511 and the exhaust hole 512.

[0057] In some embodiments, Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the first insulating member 5 may include an abutting portion, and the abutting portion may abut against the first sealing member 3. The first insulating member 5 may abut against the first side of the first sealing member 3 through the abutting portion, so that the first insulating member 5 may provide support for the first sealing member 3 in a direction parallel to the substrate 2 through the abutting portion. When the pressure on the first sealing member 3 increases, the first sealing member 3 will be subjected to pressure parallel to the substrate 2, and the first insulating member 5 may support the first sealing member 3 in a direction parallel to the substrate 2 through the abutting portion, thereby preventing the first sealing member 3 from deforming, and further preventing the first sealing member 3 from losing the sealing effect due to deformation, thereby improving the sealing reliability of the connector assembly.

[0058] Figure 3 It is a schematic structural diagram of a first shell according to an exemplary embodiment.

[0059] In some embodiments, Figure 3 As shown, the first end of the first shell 1 away from the connection end 21 may have a sealing portion 11, which may be arranged around the substrate 2, and the sealing portion 11 may contact the first sealing member 3, and the first sealing member 3 may seal the gap between the sealing portion 11 and the substrate 2.

[0060] Since the connection end 21 of the substrate 2 needs to be connected to an external connector, the second end of the first housing 1 close to the connection end 21 needs to maintain a distance from the substrate 2, so as to form an accommodation space capable of accommodating the external connector. In addition, in order to reduce the sealing distance between the first housing 1 and the substrate 2 bracket, a part of the first housing 1 is set as a sealing portion 11 with a smaller distance from the substrate 2, so that the sealing distance between the first housing 1 and the substrate 2 can be reduced, the difficulty of the first sealing member 3 sealing the first housing 1 and the substrate 2 is reduced, and the volume of the connector assembly is reduced.

[0061] In some embodiments, Figure 3As shown, the first end of the first housing 1 can be bent toward the inside of the first housing 1 to form a sealing portion 11. The sealing portion 11 can be formed integrally with the first housing 1, and the bent portion of the first housing 1 can seal the gap between the sealing portion 11 and other parts of the first housing 1, thereby preventing liquid or water vapor from entering the interior of the electronic device from between the sealing portion 11 and other parts of the first housing 1, thereby improving the waterproof performance of the connector assembly.

[0062] In some embodiments, the first insulating member 5 may include a positioning protrusion 52, and the first end of the first shell 1 may abut against the positioning protrusion 52, so that the assembly position of the first shell 1 is accurate, so that the sealing part 11 can correspond to the first sealing member 3, so that the first sealing member 3 can seal the sealing part 11 and the substrate 2.

[0063] In some embodiments, at least a portion of the sealing portion 11 surrounds the first insulating member 5, and the sealing portion 11 can be connected to at least a portion of the first insulating member 5. Since the first insulating member 5 is fixedly connected to the substrate 2, the indirect connection area between the sealing portion 11 and the substrate 2 is expanded by connecting the sealing portion 11 to at least a portion of the first insulating member 5, so that the position between the first housing 1 and the substrate 2 can be more fixed through the connection relationship between the sealing portion 11 and the first sealing member 3 and the first insulating member 5, reducing the shaking space between the first housing 1 and the substrate 2, and improving the firmness of the connector assembly.

[0064] In some embodiments, Figure 2 As shown, the connector assembly may include: a second insulating member 6 .

[0065] The second insulating member 6 can be fixedly disposed on the substrate 2, and the second insulating member 6 abuts against the second side of the first sealing member 3. Compared with the first sealing member 3, the second insulating member 6 is closer to the first opening 12, and the second side of the first sealing member 3 is a side of the first sealing member 3 close to the connection end 21.

[0066] During the production process, the first sealing member 3 can be formed by a dispensing process, and the colloid can flow into the dispensing space formed by the substrate 2, the first shell 1, the first insulating member 5 and the second insulating member 6 through the through hole 51, so that the first sealing member 3 can be dispensing-molded in the dispensing space.

[0067] Furthermore, since the first sealing component 3 is located in the glue dispensing space formed by the substrate 2, the first shell 1, the first insulating component 5 and the second insulating component 6, the deformation of the first sealing component 3 caused by collisions can be reduced during the production process of the connector assembly, thereby reducing the possibility that the first sealing component 3 loses its sealing effect due to deformation, thereby improving the reliability of the first sealing component 3.

[0068] In order to avoid electrical connection between the substrate 2 and the first shell 1 , the second insulating member 6 may have insulating properties. Exemplarily, the second insulating member 6 may be a plastic member.

[0069] In some embodiments, at least a portion of the sealing portion 11 surrounds the second insulating member 6, and the sealing portion 11 can be connected to at least a portion of the second insulating member 6. Since the second insulating member 6 is fixedly connected to the substrate 2, the indirect connection area between the sealing portion 11 and the substrate 2 is expanded by connecting the sealing portion 11 to at least a portion of the second insulating member 6, so that the position between the first housing 1 and the substrate 2 can be more fixed through the connection relationship between the sealing portion 11 and the first sealing member 3 and the second insulating member 6, reducing the shaking space between the first housing 1 and the substrate 2, and improving the firmness of the connector assembly.

[0070] Figure 4 It is a schematic structural diagram of a first shell and a second sealing member according to an exemplary embodiment.

[0071] In some embodiments, Figure 1 and Figure 4 As shown, the first housing 1 may include a second end close to the connecting end 21 .

[0072] The connector assembly may include a second seal 4, which may be connected to the second end of the first housing 1, and the second seal 4 may be arranged around the second end of the first housing 1. Exemplarily, when the connector assembly is assembled in the mounting groove of the electronic device, the second seal 4 may seal the gap between the first housing 1 and the mounting groove, thereby preventing liquid or water vapor from entering the interior of the electronic device from the gap between the outer periphery of the first housing 1 and the mounting groove of the electronic device.

[0073] In some embodiments, Figure 1 and Figure 4 As shown, the second seal 4 can be sleeved on the outer surface of the second end of the first housing 1, so that the second seal 4 can completely seal the gap between the outer periphery of the first housing 1 and other components. Exemplarily, when the connector assembly is assembled in the mounting groove of the electronic device, the second seal 4 can completely seal the gap between the first housing 1 and the mounting groove, thereby preventing liquid or water vapor from entering the interior of the electronic device through the gap between the outer periphery of the first housing 1 and other components.

[0074] In some embodiments, Figure 1 As shown, the connector assembly may include: a limiting member 7.

[0075] The limiting member 7 can be fixed to the outer surface of the first shell 1 , the limiting member 7 abuts against a side of the second sealing member 4 away from the second end, and the limiting member 7 can limit the second sealing member 4 from sliding on the first shell 1 .

[0076] Exemplarily, when the connector assembly is installed in an electronic device, the second seal 4 needs to be pushed into the installation groove. In order to keep the second seal 4 located at the second end of the first shell 1 and prevent the second seal 4 from sliding from the second end of the first shell 1 to the first end of the first shell 1, the displacement of the second seal 4 can be limited by the limiter 7 with the first shell 1, so that the position of the second seal 4 remains unchanged, the sealing position of the second seal 4 is prevented from changing, and the sealing reliability of the product is improved.

[0077] In some embodiments, the limit member 7 may include a fixing portion and a limiting portion that are interconnected. The fixing portion may be fixedly connected to the first shell 1. Exemplarily, the fixing portion may be welded to the first shell 1, so that the limit member 7 can be fixedly connected to the first shell 1 through the fixing portion, thereby enabling the limit member 7 to prevent the second sealing member 4 from sliding on the first shell 1 through its own fixed position.

[0078] The limiting portion can abut against the second sealing member 4 , so that the limiting member 7 can limit the sliding of the second sealing member 4 on the first housing 1 through the abutting relationship.

[0079] In some embodiments, the substrate 2 may include a first surface and a second surface that are opposite to each other; the first surface may be provided with a power supply terminal; and the second surface may be provided with a ground terminal.

[0080] When the connector component is a type-c port, the connector component may include four terminals that can serve as power supply terminals, of which two are arranged on the first side and two are arranged on the second side.

[0081] When the charging current of the electronic device is low, for example, the electronic device may be a wireless headset or a smart watch, and two terminals on the same side may be selected as power supply terminals. Based on a similar principle, two terminals on the same side may be selected as ground terminals.

[0082] As a result, the power supply terminal and the ground terminal are located on two different surfaces of the substrate 2, respectively, increasing the electrical connection path between the power supply terminal and the ground terminal, thereby reducing the short circuit between the power supply terminal and the ground terminal when liquid enters the connector assembly.

[0083] Based on the same concept, an embodiment of the present disclosure also provides an electronic device.

[0084] The electronic device may be a laptop computer, a desktop computer, a mobile phone, a digital broadcast terminal, a message transceiver device, a game console, a tablet device, a medical device, a fitness device, a personal digital assistant, a translator, and a wearable device such as a watch or a bracelet, and may be any electronic device that may have a connector assembly. In the following description, a mobile phone is used as an example, but the present disclosure is not limited thereto.

[0085] In some embodiments, Figure 1 As shown, the electronic device may include a connector assembly, and the electronic device may realize functions such as charging or data transmission of the electronic device through the connection relationship between the connector assembly and an external connector.

[0086] When the waterproof requirement of the electronic device is high and the application path only requires the charging function, for example, the electronic device can be a wireless headset, etc., and the connector assembly can be set as a connector with 8 terminals, which can reduce the cost of the connector assembly compared to a connector with 16 terminals or 24 terminals. The present disclosure is not limited to this, and the terminals can also be set to 6.

[0087] In some embodiments, Figure 1 As shown, the middle frame assembly may include a mounting groove; the connector assembly may include a second seal 4, and the second seal 4 may be interference connected with the mounting groove, so that the second seal 4 can be sealed with the mounting groove and the first shell 1, and the second seal 4 can seal the gap between the first shell 1 and the mounting groove.

[0088] When the connector assembly is assembled in the mounting groove of the electronic device, the second seal 4 can completely seal the gap between the first shell 1 and the mounting groove, thereby preventing liquid or water vapor from entering the interior of the electronic device through the gap between the first shell 1 and the mounting groove.

[0089] Figure 5 It is a schematic structural diagram of a connector assembly including a second shell according to an exemplary embodiment. Figure 6 The diagram is a structural diagram showing a connection between a connector assembly and a circuit board according to an exemplary embodiment.

[0090] In some embodiments, the electronic device may include a circuit board 8, which may be electrically connected to the terminals of the connector assembly, so that the power supply current transmitted to the inside of the electronic device through the connector assembly can be delivered to the battery via the circuit board 8, or the electrical signal can be delivered to the processor via the circuit board 8.

[0091] The connector assembly may include a second shell 9, which may be disposed on the outer surface of the first shell 1. Exemplarily, the second shell 9 may be divided into an upper shell and a lower shell, which are jointly sleeved and welded to the outer surface of the first shell 1, thereby achieving a fixed connection of the first shell 1.

[0092] The second shell 9 can be fixedly connected to the circuit board 8. Exemplarily, the second shell 9 can be provided with a plurality of welding feet, and the second shell 9 can be welded to the circuit board 8 through the plurality of welding feet, thereby realizing a fixed connection relationship between the connector assembly and the circuit board 8.

[0093] The disclosed embodiment arranges the first insulating member 5 on the first side of the first sealing member 3 and abuts against the first sealing member 3, so that the first insulating member 5 can provide support for the first sealing member 3, preventing the first sealing member 3 from losing its sealing effect due to deformation due to pressure, thereby improving the sealing performance of the connector assembly.
