[0069] The following content will be accompanied by drawings to illustrate the technical content of this application through specific embodiments. People familiar with this technology can easily understand other advantages and effects of this application from the content disclosed in this specification. This application can also be implemented or applied through other different specific embodiments. The details in this specification can also be modified and changed in various ways based on different viewpoints and applications without departing from the spirit of this application. In particular, the proportional relationship and relative position of each component in the drawings are only for exemplary purposes and do not represent the actual situation of the implementation of this application.

[0070] The present application provides a connector assembly and a master-end connector thereof that can transmit electrical signals in an electronic device. The connector assembly also includes a slave-end connector that matches the master-end connector, wherein the master-end connector can guide the slave-end connector to dock, so as to solve the technical problem that multiple connectors included in a small-sized connector assembly are difficult to dock, so that the connector assembly of the present application can be reduced in size and used in thin and light electronic devices.

[0071] For the description of the embodiments disclosed in this application, please refer to Figures 1 to 26 .

[0072] like Figures 1 to 26 In an embodiment of the present application, the connector assembly A includes a master-end connector 1 and a slave-end connector 2. The master-end connector 1 includes: a master-end conductive terminal 11, a master-end insulating colloid 12 and a master-end metal shell 13. The master-end conductive terminal 11 has a master-end terminal docking structure 111. The master-end insulating colloid 12 has a master-end colloid docking space 121, a master-end colloid guide tongue 122, a master-end colloid fool-proofing structure 123 and a master-end colloid alignment guide groove 124. The master-end metal shell 13 has a master-end shell support structure 131. Correspondingly, the slave-end connector 2 includes: a slave-end conductive terminal 21 and a slave-end insulating colloid 22. The slave-end conductive terminal 21 has a slave-end terminal docking structure 211. The slave-end insulating colloid 22 has a slave-end colloid docking structure 221, a slave-end colloid fool-proofing structure 222 and a slave-end colloid alignment guide block 223.

[0073] It should be noted that the master end conductive terminal 11 is embedded in the master end insulating colloid 12, and the master end terminal docking structure 111 is located in the master end colloid docking space 121. In addition, the slave end conductive terminal 21 is embedded in the slave end insulating colloid 22, and the slave end terminal docking structure 211 is located in the slave end colloid docking structure 221.

[0074] In addition, the master-end colloid guide tongue plate 122 can provide guidance for the slave-end colloid docking structure 221 of the slave-end connector 2 to enter the master-end colloid docking space 121, so that the master-end terminal docking structure 111 can dock with the slave-end terminal docking structure 211 of the slave-end connector 2. Accordingly, the slave-end colloid alignment guide block 223 extends on the slave-end colloid docking structure 221, and the master-end colloid alignment guide groove 124 extends on the master-end colloid guide tongue plate 122, so that when the master-end colloid guide tongue plate 122 guides the slave-end colloid docking structure 221 to enter the master-end colloid docking space 121, the slave-end colloid alignment guide block 223 can enter the master-end colloid alignment guide groove 124 and then provide alignment for the slave-end connector 2, so that the slave-end terminal docking structure 211 of the slave-end connector 2 can be aligned with the master-end terminal docking structure 111 of the master-end connector 1, so that the master-end terminal docking structure 111 can dock with the slave-end terminal docking structure 211. In this way, the main-end colloid guide tongue 122 of the main-end insulating colloid 12 can guide the slave-end connector 2 to dock with the main-end connector 1, so as to solve the technical problem that multiple connectors included in a small-sized connector assembly are difficult to dock, so that the connector assembly and the main-end connector of the present application can be reduced in size and used in thin and light electronic devices.

[0075] It should be noted that in the present application, the master-end connector 1 can still achieve alignment with the slave-end connector 2 through other structural designs, so that the slave-end terminal docking structure 211 of the slave-end connector 2 can be aligned with the master-end terminal docking structure 111 of the master-end connector 1, allowing the slave-end terminal docking structure 211 to easily dock with the master-end terminal docking structure 111. Therefore, the slave-end colloid alignment guide block 223 and the master-end colloid alignment guide groove 124 can be omitted or the structural design can be changed.

[0076] In the above embodiment, the main-end metal shell 13 is joined to the main-end insulating colloid 12 to form a main-end connector joint component B. In the main-end connector joint component B, the main-end colloid guide tongue 122 extends above the upper boundary LU above the main-end colloid joint space 121 to guide the slave-end connector 2 to enter the main-end colloid joint space 121 below the upper boundary LU.

[0077] In addition, the main end shell support structure 131 is adjacent to the main end colloid guide tongue plate 122, so that when the main end colloid guide tongue plate 122 guides the slave end connector 2 to enter the main end colloid docking space 121, the main end shell support structure 131 abuts against the main end colloid guide tongue plate 122 to provide structural support, thereby reducing the degree of deformation of the main end colloid guide tongue plate 122, so that the main end colloid guide tongue plate 122 does not need to be thickened to improve the structural strength, so that the connector assembly and the main end connector of the present application can be reduced in size, and the electronic device does not need to reserve too much space for the deformation of the main end colloid guide tongue plate 122, so that the connector assembly and the main end connector of the present application can be used in thin electronic devices. Furthermore, it should be noted that since the main end shell support structure 131 can provide structural support for the main end colloid guide tongue plate 122, it can avoid the main end colloid guide tongue plate 122 from being damaged and broken due to excessive deformation, so that the service life of the main end connector 1 can be effectively increased.

[0078] It should be noted that, optionally, the main-end shell support structure 131 is a plate-like structure extending above the main-end colloid guide tongue plate 122, and the plate-like structure contacts the plate surface of the main-end colloid guide tongue plate 122 to achieve structural correspondence, so that the main-end shell support structure 131 can surface-contact the main-end colloid guide tongue plate 122, and the area of ​​the main-end shell support structure 131 abutting against the main-end colloid guide tongue plate 122 can be increased, thereby greatly reducing the degree of stress deformation of the main-end colloid guide tongue plate 122.

[0079] In the above embodiment, the slave-end colloid fool-proof structure 222 of the slave-end connector 2 and the master-end colloid fool-proof structure 123 of the master-end connector 1 are matched in a concave-convex manner to achieve structural correspondence, thereby preventing the slave-end connector 2 from reversely entering the master-end colloid docking space 121. Optionally, the master-end colloid fool-proof structure 123 of the master-end insulating colloid 12 and the slave-end colloid fool-proof structure 222 of the slave-end insulating colloid 22 are step structures that match in a concave-convex manner to achieve structural correspondence.

[0080] like Figures 17 to 26 In the embodiment of the present invention, the main-end connector 1 includes a main-end buckling rod 14. The main-end buckling rod 14 can be made of a metal rod or a non-metal rod, and the main-end buckling rod 14 has a buckling rod body 141 and a buckling rod rotation structure 142. The buckling rod body 141 can define a rod body limiting space LS on the main-end connector 1. Accordingly, the main-end insulating colloid 12 has a main-end colloid rotation structure 125, and the main-end metal shell 13 has a main-end shell clamping structure 132.

[0081] It should be noted that the buckle rod rotating structure 142 can be embedded in the main end colloid rotating structure 125, so that the buckle rod rotating structure 142 can rotate relative to the main end colloid rotating structure 125 to drive the buckle rod body 141 to shift, so that the buckle rod body 141 can be located at the buckle position P. When the buckle rod body 141 is located at the buckle position P, the buckle rod body 141 can buckle the slave end connector 2, thereby limiting the movement of the slave end connector 2, so that the slave end connector 2 is located in the rod body restriction space LS, and prevents the slave end connector 2 from being separated from the main end connector 1, so as to maintain the relationship between the main end terminal docking structure 111 and the slave end terminal docking structure 211.

[0082] In addition, it should be noted that when the latching rod rotating structure 142 rotates relative to the main-end colloid rotating structure 125 and drives the latching rod body 141 to leave the latching position P, the slave-end connector 2 can be forced to separate from the main-end connector 1, thereby releasing the docking relationship between the main-end terminal docking structure 111 and the slave-end terminal docking structure 211 to meet the requirements of electronic device operation.

[0083] In the above embodiment, the main end colloid rotating structure 125 is a slot structure in which the buckle rod rotating structure 142 can rotate, but it is not limited thereto. Any structure in which the buckle rod rotating structure 142 can rotate can serve as the main end colloid rotating structure 125.

[0084] In addition, the main end housing clamping structure 132 can clamp the buckle rod body 141 to maintain the buckle rod body 141 at the clamping position P. In the above embodiment, the main end housing clamping structure 132 is a hook-shaped structure that can clamp the buckle rod body 141, but it is not limited to this. Any structure that can clamp the buckle rod body 141 can be used as the main end housing clamping structure 132.

[0085] It should be noted that when the buckling rod rotating structure 142 rotates relative to the main end colloid rotating structure 125 and drives the buckling rod body 141 to leave the buckling position P, the buckling rod body 141 can be deformed by force and disengaged from the main end shell clamping structure 132 to release the clamping of the main end shell clamping structure 132 on the buckling rod body 141.

[0086] In the above embodiment, the latching rod rotating structure 142 has a first latching rod rotating substructure 1421 and a second latching rod rotating substructure 1422. The first latching rod rotating substructure 1421 and the second latching rod rotating substructure 1422 are respectively located on both sides of the latching rod body 141, so that the latching rod rotating structure 142 can drive the two sides of the latching rod body 141 to shift synchronously, thereby allowing the two sides of the latching rod body 141 to synchronously latch the slave connector 2, thereby synchronously limiting the movement of the slave connector 2 on both sides, so that the slave connector 2 is located in the rod body limiting space LS, so as to prevent the slave connector 2 from being separated from the master connector 1, and maintain the docking relationship between the master connector 1 and the slave connector 2.

[0087] It should be noted that even if one of the first buckle rod rotating substructure 1421 and the second buckle rod rotating substructure 1422 is omitted, the buckle rod rotating substructure 142 can still rotate to drive the buckle rod body 141 to shift. Therefore, either the first buckle rod rotating substructure 1421 or the second buckle rod rotating substructure 1422 can be omitted.

[0088] It should be noted that the connector assembly and the main-end connector of the present application may also omit some components, rather than being limited to those described in the above embodiments. For example, the main-end connector of the present application may choose to include only the main-end conductive terminal, the main-end metal shell and the main-end insulating colloid. The main-end conductive terminal has a main-end terminal docking structure; the main-end insulating colloid has a main-end colloid docking space and a main-end colloid guide tongue; and the main-end metal shell has a main-end shell support structure. Wherein: the main-end conductive terminal is embedded in the main-end insulating colloid, and the main-end terminal docking structure is located in the main-end colloid docking space; the main-end colloid guide tongue plate can guide the slave-end connector into the main-end colloid docking space, so that the main-end terminal docking structure can dock with the slave-end connector; and the main-end metal shell is connected to the main-end insulating colloid to form a main-end connector coupling component, in which the main-end shell support structure is adjacent to the main-end colloid guide tongue plate, so that when the main-end colloid guide tongue plate guides the slave-end connector into the main-end colloid docking space, the main-end shell support structure abuts against the main-end colloid guide tongue plate to provide structural support, so as to reduce the degree of deformation of the main-end colloid guide tongue plate under stress.

[0089] In addition, the connector assembly of the present application may choose to include only a master-end connector and a slave-end connector. The slave-end connector includes: a slave-end conductive terminal and a slave-end insulating colloid. The slave-end conductive terminal has a slave-end terminal docking structure; and the slave-end insulating colloid has a slave-end colloid docking structure, the slave-end conductive terminal is embedded in the slave-end insulating colloid, and the slave-end terminal docking structure is located in the slave-end colloid docking structure. Among them, the master-end colloid guide tongue plate can guide the slave-end colloid docking structure into the master-end colloid docking space, so that the master-end terminal docking structure can dock with the slave-end terminal docking structure.

[0090] In summary, the present application provides a connector assembly and a main-end connector thereof, wherein the connector assembly provided also includes a slave-end connector matched with the main-end connector, wherein the main-end connector has a colloid guide tongue plate, so as to guide the slave-end connector into the main-end connector through the colloid guide tongue plate, thereby achieving docking between the main-end connector and the slave-end connector, so as to solve the technical problem that multiple connectors included in a small-sized connector assembly are not easy to dock. In addition, the main-end connector also has a shell support structure, so as to provide structural support to the colloid guide tongue plate through the shell support structure, so as to reduce the degree of deformation of the colloid guide tongue plate under stress, so that the colloid guide tongue plate does not need to be thickened to improve the structural strength, so that the connector assembly and the main-end connector of the present application can be reduced in size and used in thin and light electronic devices.

[0091] The above embodiments are merely illustrative of the principles and effects of the present application and are not intended to limit the present application. Anyone skilled in the art may modify and alter the above embodiments without violating the spirit and scope of the present application. Therefore, the scope of protection of the present application shall be as set forth in the claims of the present application.
