Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the field of connectors and relates to a three-in-one automobile socket connector. Background Art

[0002] Automotive socket connectors include CAN socket connectors, sensor socket connectors, power socket connectors, etc. Traditional automotive socket connectors are used individually. With the improvement of the integration of new energy vehicles, the space reserved for the installation of automotive socket connectors has shrunk. For example, in the engine compartment of a car, the space originally reserved for the arrangement of CAN socket connectors, sensor socket connectors, and power socket connectors is large enough. The above automotive socket connectors can be placed together separately, and the assembly master will not be constrained during assembly, but the overall assembly time is longer. However, the space provided for the arrangement of the three in existing cars has been reduced to a circular area within 13mm. If they are placed separately, there is currently a problem of insufficient space, which seriously affects the assembly efficiency.

[0003] Therefore, it is necessary to improve the prior art to overcome the defects in the prior art. Utility Model Content

[0007] Furthermore, a first baffle and a second baffle are provided on the substrate, the first baffle is distributed between the first card slot group and the second card slot group, and the second baffle is distributed between the second card slot group and the third card slot group.

[0008] Furthermore, a pair of side panels of equal height are provided on the back of the substrate, and the side panels are distributed at both ends of the substrate; the height of the first card slot group, the height of the second card slot group, the height of the third card slot group, the height of the first baffle plate and the height of the second baffle plate are all lower than the height of the side panels.

[0009] Furthermore, positioning posts are disposed at the lower ends of the first baffle plate and the second baffle plate, and the positioning posts face downward and are exposed below the substrate.

[0010] Furthermore, the base plate, the side plate, the first slot group, the second slot group, the third slot group and the positioning column are all integrally injection molded.

[0011] Specifically, the power socket connector is vertically distributed on the substrate, and the CAN socket connector and the sensor socket connector are horizontally distributed on the substrate.

[0012] The above technical solution has the following beneficial effects: by integrally forming the main structures of the CAN socket connector, the sensor socket connector, and the power socket connector, the space occupied is reduced and the integration is improved; during assembly, only the corresponding pins need to be assembled, which simplifies the assembly steps, improves assembly efficiency, reduces process costs, and improves product stability; at the same time, it can also reduce the packaging and transportation costs of accessories.

In addition, the technical features involved in each implementation method of the present invention described below can be combined with each other as long as they do not conflict with each other.

[0020] Example

[0021] See also Figure 1-Figure 3 As shown, a three-in-one automotive socket connector includes a substrate 1, a power socket connector 2 is centrally arranged on the substrate 1, and a CAN socket connector 3 and a sensor socket connector 4 are respectively arranged on both sides. The substrate 1 and the shell of the power socket connector 2, the shell of the CAN socket connector 3, and the shell of the sensor socket connector 4 are integrally injection molded.

[0022] The back of the substrate 1 is provided with a first slot group 11, a second slot group 12 and a third slot group 13. The pins of the CAN socket connector 3 are embedded in the first slot group 11, the pins of the power socket connector 2 are embedded in the second slot group 12, and the pins of the sensor socket connector 4 are embedded in the third slot group 13. The corresponding pins are assembled later, and each pin has a corresponding slot to fix the pin position.

[0023] In this embodiment, the pins of the CAN socket connector 3, the pins of the power socket connector 2, and the pins of the sensor socket connector 4 are all vertically downward and exposed below the substrate 1. The pins exposed below the substrate 1 are mounted on the corresponding circuit board 5 as welding terminals.

[0024] Further, the substrate 1 is provided with a first baffle 14 and a second baffle 15, the first baffle 14 is distributed between the first slot group 11 and the second slot group 12, and the second baffle 15 is distributed between the second slot group 12 and the third slot group 13. The lower ends of the first baffle 14 and the second baffle 15 are both provided with positioning posts 18, which face downward and are exposed below the substrate 1. When in use, the positioning posts 18 are clamped on the corresponding circuit board 5 to improve the stability of the on-site installation of the three-in-one automotive socket connector.

[0025] A pair of side panels 16 and 17 of equal height are provided on the back of the substrate 1, and the side panels 16 and 17 are distributed at both ends of the substrate 1. Among them, the height of the first card slot group 11, the height of the second card slot group 12, the height of the third card slot group 13, the height of the first baffle 14 and the height of the second baffle 15 are all lower than the height of the side panels 16 and 17. The above height difference helps to protect the pins of the product.

[0026] In this embodiment, the base plate 1, the side plates 16, 17, the first slot group 11, the second slot group 12, the third slot group 13 and the positioning column 18 are all integrally injection molded. This product consists of two parts, one part is the injection molded shell (main structure), and the other part is the pins inserted and installed in the shell. During assembly, only the corresponding pins need to be assembled, which simplifies the assembly steps and improves assembly efficiency. Since the shells of the three types of automotive socket connectors are injection molded as a whole, the space occupied by the three types of automotive socket connectors can be effectively reduced and their integration can be improved. At the same time, the process cost is reduced and the product stability is improved. The packaging and transportation costs of accessories can also be reduced during product transportation.

[0027] from Figure 3 It can be seen that two circuit boards 5 are arranged side by side in the circular area, and a three-in-one automobile socket connector is installed on each circuit board 5. The power socket connector 2 is vertically distributed on the substrate 1, and the CAN socket connector 3 and the sensor socket connector 4 are horizontally distributed on the substrate 1, making full use of the circular area space.

[0028] The utility model combines three electrical socket connectors together by injection molding, which can effectively reduce product volume, improve product quality stability and assembly efficiency, and reduce production costs, transportation costs and process costs.

[0029] The embodiments of the present invention are described in detail above with reference to the accompanying drawings, but the present invention is not limited to the described embodiments. For those skilled in the art, various changes, modifications, substitutions and variations of these embodiments are made without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, and still fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.
