Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of connectors, and in particular to a Mini FAKRA connector. Background Art

[0002] In the related technology, FAKRA connector is a connector component widely used in automobiles, generally used in GPS positioning systems, remote control systems, car phone systems, satellite radios and car Internet access, etc. Mini FAKRA connector is a connector used for car wireless communication and car multimedia systems. It is a variant of the FAKRA connector series. Compared with the standard FAKRA connector, the Mini FAKRA connector has a smaller size and higher density, which is suitable for applications with limited space and high-density wiring.

[0003] When testing the current Mini FAKRA connector, the size of the female connector just matches the device being tested. Because of its small size, higher accuracy is often required during insertion to ensure a normal connection. This requires the female connector to make more precise position adjustments during insertion, which significantly increases the time spent and is not conducive to efficient testing. At the same time, the previous Mini FAKRA interface was tested through a wiring harness. Because there are buckles and no installation positioning, automatic quick plugging and unplugging cannot be achieved. The buckle needs to be manually opened during testing, which is not conducive to efficient testing. Therefore, how to improve the testing efficiency of the Mini FAKRA connector has become a technical problem that needs to be solved urgently. Utility Model Content
