However, it has the following problems:
[0003] 1. The slot of the memory module connector is open, and external dust, fiber and other pollutants will enter the memory module slot and then adhere to the surface of the connection terminal, affecting the normal use of the memory module and causing poor contact;
[0004] 2. During transportation, the memory module connector is in an open state, which will also cause the above problems during later use. Summary of the invention
[0005] In view of the above-mentioned deficiencies in the prior art, the technical problem to be solved by this patent application is how to provide a memory stick connector that can block the slot and has a simple structure and is easy to use.
[0006] In order to solve the above technical problems, the utility model adopts the following technical solutions:
[0007] A memory stick connector, comprising a connector insulating shell and a plurality of terminals, wherein the connector insulating shell is provided with a slot in the shape of a long strip for inserting the memory stick, and the connector insulating shell is provided with a plurality of terminal slots, wherein the terminals are installed in the terminal slots, and the terminals can be electrically connected to the memory sticks respectively;
[0008] Baffles are provided on both sides of the insulating shell of the connector, supports are fixed on both sides of the baffles, a rotating shaft is rotatably installed in the supports, two ear seats are fixedly installed on the insulating shell of the connector opposite to the supports, both ends of the rotating shaft are fixedly connected to the ear seats, and the baffle can cover the slot when it is rotated to the top of the insulating shell of the connector.
[0009] In this way, the connector insulating shell includes a first half shell and a second half shell, and the first half shell and the second half shell are fixedly connected to facilitate the installation of the terminal. The memory stick is inserted into the slot and electrically connected to the terminal, which is an existing structure. When transporting or not using the connector, the two baffles are rotated, and the baffles cover the slot to reduce pollutants entering the slot, thereby better ensuring the reliability of the connector.
[0010] Wherein, when the baffle is in a vertical state, a notch is provided on the same side of the baffle.
[0011] The notch of the baffle is concave to form an embedding groove, and the first magnet and the second magnet with opposite polarities are respectively bonded in the embedding grooves facing each other on the two baffles.
[0012] Among them, when the baffle is in a vertical state, a plurality of mounting seats are fixed on the lower end of the baffle facing the surface of the connector insulating shell, a third magnet is fixedly installed in the mounting seat, and a fourth magnet capable of engaging with the third magnet is embedded in the connector insulating shell facing the third magnet.
[0013] Wherein, the mounting seat has an arc-shaped yielding portion.
[0014] In summary, the memory stick connector has the advantages of being able to block the slot, having a simple structure, and being easy to use. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0019] The present invention is further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. In the description of the present invention, it should be understood that the directions or positional relationships indicated by directional words such as "upper, lower" and "top, bottom" are usually based on the directions or positional relationships shown in the accompanying drawings, and are only for the convenience of describing the present invention and simplifying the description. Unless otherwise stated, these directional words do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific direction or be constructed and operated in a specific direction, and therefore cannot be understood as limiting the scope of protection of the present invention; the directional words "inside and outside" refer to the inside and outside relative to the contours of each component itself.
[0020] like Figure 1-4 As shown, a memory stick connector comprises a connector insulating housing 1 and a plurality of terminals, wherein the connector insulating housing is provided with a slot 2 in the shape of a long strip for inserting the memory stick, and the connector insulating housing is provided with a plurality of terminal slots 3, wherein the terminals are installed in the terminal slots, and the terminals can be electrically connected to the memory sticks respectively;
[0021] Baffles 4 are provided on both sides of the insulating shell of the connector, and supports 5 are fixed on both sides of the baffles. A rotating shaft is rotatably installed in the support. Two ear seats 6 are fixedly installed on the insulating shell of the connector opposite to the support. Both ends of the rotating shaft are fixedly connected to the ear seats. When the baffle is rotated to the top of the insulating shell of the connector, the slot can be covered.
[0022] In this way, the connector insulating shell includes a first half shell and a second half shell, and the first half shell and the second half shell are fixedly connected to facilitate the installation of the terminal. The memory stick is inserted into the slot and electrically connected to the terminal, which is an existing structure. When transporting or not using the connector, the two baffles are rotated, and the baffles cover the slot to reduce pollutants entering the slot, thereby better ensuring the reliability of the connector.
[0023] During implementation, when the baffle is in a vertical state, a notch 7 is provided on the same side of the baffle, so that the two baffles can be directly engaged.
[0024] During implementation, the notch of the baffle is concave to form an embedding groove, and the first magnet 8 and the second magnet 9 with opposite polarities are respectively bonded in the embedding grooves facing the two baffles. The two baffles are connected to each other through the first magnet and the second magnet, thereby improving stability.
[0025] During implementation, when the baffle is in a vertical state, a plurality of mounting seats 10 are fixed on the lower end of the baffle facing the surface of the connector insulating shell, a third magnet 11 is fixedly installed in the mounting seat, and a fourth magnet 12 capable of engaging with the third magnet is embedded in the connector insulating shell facing the third magnet. After the memory stick is inserted into the slot, the baffle is not needed, the baffle is set vertically, the third magnet is attracted with the fourth magnet, and the baffle is prevented from swinging randomly, thereby improving stability.
[0026] During implementation, the mounting seat has an arc-shaped yielding portion 13, which is convenient for rotation and avoids interference between the mounting seat and the connector insulating shell. Through the arrangement of the arc-shaped yielding portion, after the mounting seat rotates, the third magnet can be attracted to the fourth magnet.
[0027] Finally, it should be noted that those skilled in the art may make various modifications and variations to the present invention without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Thus, if these modifications and variations of the present invention fall within the scope of the claims of the present invention and their equivalents, the present invention is intended to include these modifications and variations.
