Abstract
Description

[0002] In the current field of connector technology, the industry has begun to explore and apply an innovative zero-terminal connector technology. This technology eliminates the traditional connector terminals and instead uses the method of directly tinning the wire after stripping, and uses the tinned part directly as the contact point of the connector, thus realizing the zero-terminal connector.
[0003] However, although this zero-terminal connector technology brings significant convenience and efficiency improvements, it faces a major technical challenge in practical applications. The traditional connector molding mold design usually only includes an upper mold and a lower mold. This design performs well when manufacturing single-row connectors, but it is powerless when facing double-row structures. It is difficult for double-row wires to maintain a stable positioning between the upper mold and the lower mold. At the same time, if you try to stabilize the wires by adding a supporting mold, the demolding process will become extremely difficult. Therefore, limited by the current demolding technology bottleneck, this zero-terminal connector technology is currently mainly limited to the production of single-row structures, and cannot achieve a more compact and efficient double-row structure connector.

Therefore, the features defined as "first" and "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of the features. In the description of the present utility model, the meaning of "plurality" is two or more, unless otherwise clearly and specifically defined.
[0030] In the present invention, unless otherwise clearly specified and limited, the terms "install", "connect", "connect", "fix" and the like should be understood in a broad sense, for example, it can be connected, detachably connected, or integrated; it can be mechanically connected or electrically connected; it can be directly connected or indirectly connected through an intermediate medium, it can be the internal connection of two elements or the interaction relationship between two elements.

In this specification, the schematic representation of the above terms should not be understood as necessarily being directed to the same embodiment or example. Moreover, the specific features, structures, materials or characteristics described may be combined in any one or more embodiments or examples in a suitable manner. In addition, those skilled in the art may combine and combine the different embodiments or examples described in this specification.
[0033] See also Figures 1 to 6 The embodiment of the utility model provides a double-row zero-terminal connector, which includes: an inner frame 2, a plurality of threading holes 21 are opened on the inner frame 2, and the plurality of threading holes 21 are distributed in two parallel rows on the inner frame 2; a wire 1, the wire 1 corresponds to the threading hole 21 one by one and is passed through the threading hole 21, and the end of the wire 1 close to the threading hole 21 is a stripping and tinning end 11; a connector shell 3, the connector shell 3 has a molding groove 31 corresponding to the inner frame 2 and a molding hole 32 corresponding to the wire 1, the inner frame 2 is located in the molding groove 31, the wire 1 is passed through the molding hole 32, and the stripping and tinning end 11 protrudes out of the connector shell 3; wherein the connector shell 3 is in-mold injection molding. It needs to be explained that the wire 1 includes an insulating skin and a copper wire wrapped in the insulating skin, and the stripped and tinned end 11 is a copper wire at one end of the wire 1 that passes through the insulating skin, and the copper wire is wrapped with metal tin. The metal tin can bond the copper wires together and has a certain hardness, so it can replace the terminal connected to the copper wire in the prior art, and the stripped and tinned end 11 is used to replace the terminal, without the need for additional riveting terminals, which saves costs and reduces impedance.
[0034] In this embodiment, a threading hole 21 is provided on the inner frame 2, and the inner frame 2 is used as a positioning support structure to position and support the wire 1, and the double-row threading holes 21 on the inner frame 2 can position the double-row wire 1. After the wire 1 and the inner frame 2 are assembled, they are placed in a molding mold for injection molding to obtain a connector housing 3. After the connector housing 3 is molded, the double-row zero-terminal connector in this embodiment can be demolded. It should be noted that the double-row zero-terminal connector in this embodiment can still use a traditional molding mold when manufacturing, which effectively solves the defect of the difficulty of demolding the double-row terminalless connector in the prior art.
[0035] Furthermore, the wire 1 has an interference fit with the threading hole 21, that is, the outer diameter of the wire 1 is larger than the outer diameter of the threading hole 21. Due to the clamping force generated by the interference fit, the wire 1 is well fixed in the threading hole 21, avoiding loosening or falling off during production or use.
[0036] Further, the first row of threading holes 21 and the second row of threading holes 21 of the two parallel rows of threading holes 21 on the inner frame 2 are symmetrically arranged. Further, the spacing between the first row of threading holes 21 and the second row of threading holes 21 is greater than or equal to 2 mm. Further, the stripped and tinned ends 11 of the plurality of wires 1 are parallel to each other.
[0037] Furthermore, in order to ensure a stable connection between the inner frame 2 and the connector shell 3, an outer mold embedding hole 22 is provided on the inner frame 2, and a molding column corresponding to the outer mold embedding hole 22 is provided in the connector shell 3. That is to say, when the connector shell 3 is injection molded, the injection material will flow into the outer mold embedding hole 22 to form a molding column, so that the inner frame 2 and the connector shell 3 are firmly combined in structure.
[0038] Specifically, at least two outer mold embedding holes 22 are provided on the inner frame 2, and the inner frame 2 is a symmetrical structure.
[0039] For further information, see Figure 7 , the use of the connector needs to distinguish between up, down, left and right. In order to make the user more convenient to use the double-row zero-terminal connector in this embodiment, a first hook 33 and a second hook 34 are respectively provided on both sides of the connector housing 3, and the diameter of the first hook 33 is larger than the second hook 34. Correspondingly, a first hanging hole and a second hanging hole are also provided on the PCB board 4 connected to the double-row zero-terminal connector. The diameter of the first hanging hole is equal to the diameter of the first hook 33, and the diameter of the second hanging hole is equal to the diameter of the second hook 34. Therefore, only when the first hook 33 corresponds to the first hanging hole and the second hook 34 corresponds to the second hanging hole, the double-row zero-terminal connector can be connected to the PCB board 4. If the angle of the double-row zero-terminal connector when connected to the PCB board 4 is incorrect, it cannot be connected, which ensures the accuracy of the double-row zero-terminal connector when connected to the PCB board 4 and reduces the difficulty of assembly.
[0040] Compared with the prior art, the double-row zero-terminal connector of the utility model realizes the positioning of the double-row wires through the wire holes on the inner frame, and uses the inner frame as a support for the wires for injection molding in the molding mold, which effectively solves the problem that the double-row wires are difficult to stably position in the mold and the connector is difficult to demold after molding.
[0041] The above is only a specific implementation of the utility model, but the protection scope of the utility model is not limited thereto. Any technician familiar with the technical field can easily think of various equivalent modifications or replacements within the technical scope disclosed by the utility model, and these modifications or replacements should be included in the protection scope of the utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of the utility model should be based on the protection scope of the claims.
