[0065] Please refer to Figures 1A to 4 picture, Figure 1A and Figure 1B Schematic diagram of an electronic device 100 at different viewing angles according to an embodiment of the present invention. Figure 2A for Figure 1A A cross-sectional view of the electronic device 100 along direction 2A-2A′, Figure 2B for Figure 1A A cross-sectional view of the electronic device 100 along direction 2B-2B', Figure 3A for Figure 1A An exploded view of the electronic device 100, Figure 3B for Figure 1B An exploded view of the electronic device 100, and Figure 4 for Figure 1A A top view of the electronic device 100. The electronic device 100 is, for example, a power supply or other electronic devices with a connector.

[0066] like Figure 1A and Figure 2A As shown, the electronic device 100 includes a first housing 110, a connector 120, a second housing 130, a fixing member 140 and a circuit board 150. The first housing 110 includes at least one first housing abutting portion 111, and the first housing abutting portion 111 is located in the first housing 110. The connector 120 includes at least one first connector abutting portion 121. The first housing abutting portion 111 and the first connector abutting portion 121 abut against each other. In this way, the first housing abutting portion 111 can stop the connector 120 from detaching from the first housing 110 along the -X direction, thereby increasing the fixity between the connector 120 and the housing.

[0067] like Figure 2A As shown, the first housing 110 includes a shell 116, and the shell 116 has an outer surface 110s. Elements and / or structures that extend toward the inner side of the outer surface 110s or do not protrude relative to the outer surface 110s are all referred to as "located in the first housing 110" in this article. In one embodiment, the shell 116 and the first housing abutment portion 111 are connected to each other, and they are, for example, an integrally formed structure. In terms of the manufacturing process, for example, stamping and / or bending methods can be used to form the first housing 110 including the shell 116 and the first housing abutment portion 111. In terms of materials, the first housing 110 is made of metal, for example.

[0068] As shown in FIGS. 2A and 3A, the first housing abutting portion 111 protrudes into the first housing 110 relative to the outer surface 110s and has a first housing abutting surface 111s. The first housing abutting surface 111s faces into the first housing 110. The connector 120 includes a body 125. The body 125 has a first body side surface 125s1. The first connector abutting portion 121 protrudes relative to the first body side surface 125s1 and has a first connector abutting surface 121s, and the first housing abutting surface 111s and the first connector abutting surface 121s abut against each other.

[0069] As shown in FIGS. 2A and 3A , the first housing abutting portion 111 extends along the +X direction relative to the outer surface 110s to abut against the first connector abutting surface 121s of the connector 120. In addition, depending on the geometrical shapes of the first housing abutting surface 111s and the geometrical shapes of the first connector abutting surface 121s, the first housing abutting surface 111s and the first connector abutting surface 121s may be in point contact, line contact, or surface contact.

[0070] As shown in FIGS. 2B and 3A, the first housing 110 further has a second housing abutting surface 112s1. The second housing abutting surface 112s1 is, for example, a portion of the outer surface 110s of the first housing 110. The connector 120 further includes at least one first elastic arm 122. The first elastic arm 122 is connected to the first body side surface 125s1 and has a second connector abutting surface 122s1, and the second connector abutting surface 122s1 and the second housing abutting surface 112s1 abut against each other. In this way, the second housing abutting surface 112s1 can stop the connector 120 from detaching from the first housing 110 along the -X direction, thereby increasing the fixity between the connector 120 and the housing.

[0071] As shown in FIGS. 2B and 3A, the first housing 110 further includes a second housing abutment portion 112, and the second housing abutment portion 112 has the aforementioned second housing abutment surface 112s1. The second housing abutment portion 112 is connected to the housing 116 and extends in the direction of the first body side surface 125s1. In an embodiment, the second housing abutment portion 112 extends from the housing 116 along the -Z direction, so that the second housing abutment surface 112s1 of the second housing abutment portion 112 and the second connector abutment surface 122s1 of the connector 120 can face each other along the X axis (e.g., the first axis). In this way, when the connector 120 is assembled with the first housing 110, the second connector abutment surface 122s1 and the second housing abutment surface 112s1 can abut against each other.

[0072] In one embodiment, the housing 116 and the second housing abutment portion 112 are connected to each other, and are, for example, an integrally formed structure. In terms of manufacturing process, for example, stamping and / or bending methods can be used to form the first housing 110 including the housing 116 and the second housing abutment portion 112 .

[0073] As shown in FIGS. 2B and 3B , a first distance H11 is provided between the second shell abutting surface 112s1 of the second shell abutting portion 112 and the first shell abutting surface 111s of the first shell abutting portion 111 along the X-axis, and a second distance H12 is provided between the second connector abutting surface 122s1 of the first elastic arm 122 and the first connector abutting surface 121s of the first connector abutting portion 121 along the X-axis. In one embodiment, the second distance H12 is substantially equal to or less than the first distance H11. Thus, when the connector 120 is assembled with the first shell 110, the second shell abutting surface 112s1 of the second shell abutting portion 112 and the second connector abutting surface 122s1 of the first elastic arm 122 can abut against each other, and the first shell abutting surface 111s of the first shell abutting portion 111 and the first connector abutting surface 121s of the first connector abutting portion 121 can abut against each other.

[0074] In summary, since the first shell abutting surface 111s of the first shell abutting portion 111 and the first connector abutting surface 121s of the first connector abutting portion 121 abut against each other and the second connector abutting surface 122s1 abuts against the second shell abutting surface 112s1, the displacement freedom of the first shell 110 and the connector 120 along the X-axis can be constrained, and the first shell 110 and the connector 120 will not easily produce unstable relative shaking due to external force to affect the connection stability.

[0075] As shown in FIGS. 2B and 3A, the second shell abutting portion 112 of the first shell 110 further has a third shell abutting surface 112s2. The third shell abutting surface 112s2 is adjacent to the second shell abutting surface 112s1. For example, the first shell 110 has a through hole 110a, which extends from the second shell abutting surface 112s1 into the first shell 110. The third shell abutting surface 112s2 is a side wall of the through hole 110a, and is connected to the second shell abutting surface 112s1. Specifically, the second shell abutting surface 112s1 and the third shell abutting surface 112s2 are substantially perpendicular to each other.

[0076] like Figure 2B As shown, the second connector abutting surface 122s1 intersects with the third connector abutting surface 122s2, wherein the angle between the second connector abutting surface 122s1 and the third connector abutting surface 122s2 is, for example, a right angle, but may also be an acute angle or an obtuse angle. In one embodiment, the first elastic arm 122 has a stepped structure, wherein the second connector abutting surface 122s1 and the third connector abutting surface 122s2 are two surfaces of the stepped structure.

[0077] The structure of the first elastic arm 122 as shown in FIGS. 3A and 3B is in a free state. Figure 2BAs shown, after the connector 120 is assembled with the first housing 110, the first elastic arm 122 is deformed. The deformed first elastic arm 122 provides an elastic restoring force on the third housing abutting surface 112s2 of the second housing abutting portion 112 to abut against the third housing abutting surface 112s2 of the second housing abutting portion 112. This elastic restoring force can also increase the resistance of the connector 120 and the first housing 110 to separate from each other, thereby increasing the fixity between the connector 120 and the housing.

[0078] As shown in FIGS. 2B and 3A, the first housing 110 has a fourth housing abutting surface 113s2 and a second housing abutting surface 113s1, wherein the fourth housing abutting surface 113s2 is adjacent to the second housing abutting surface 113s1. For example, the through hole 110a of the first housing 110 extends from the second housing abutting surface 113s1 into the first housing 110. The fourth housing abutting surface 113s2 is a side wall of the through hole 110a and is connected to the second housing abutting surface 113s1. In addition, the fourth housing abutting surface 113s2 and the aforementioned third housing abutting surface 112s2 face two opposite directions respectively, for example, the direction (or normal direction) of the fourth housing abutting surface 113s2 is substantially parallel to the +Z direction, and the direction (or normal direction) of the third housing abutting surface 112s2 is substantially parallel to the -Z direction. In addition, the body 125 of the connector 120 further has a second body side surface 125s2 intersecting the first body side surface 125s1. The connector 120 further includes a second elastic arm 123. The second elastic arm 123 is connected to the second body side surface 125s2 and has a second connector abutting surface 123s1 and a fourth connector abutting surface 123s2. The second connector abutting surface 123s1 of the second elastic arm 123 intersects with the fourth connector abutting surface 123s2, wherein the angle between the second connector abutting surface 123s1 and the fourth connector abutting surface 123s2 is, for example, a right angle, but may also be an acute angle or an obtuse angle. In one embodiment, the second elastic arm 123 has a stepped structure, wherein the second connector abutting surface 123s1 and the fourth connector abutting surface 123s2 of the second elastic arm 123 are two surfaces of the stepped structure.

[0079] like Figure 3B As shown, the first elastic arm 122 and the second elastic arm 123 are respectively disposed on two opposite sides of the body 125. The first elastic arm 122 has a first free end 1221, and a gap g1 is formed between the first free end 1221 and the body 125, that is, the first free end 1221 is movable relative to the body 125. The second elastic arm 123 has a second free end 1231, and a gap g2 is formed between the second free end 1231 and the body 125, that is, the second free end 1231 is movable relative to the body 125.

[0080] As shown in FIGS. 2B and 3A, the second connector abutting surface 123s1 abuts against the second shell abutting surface 113s1, and the fourth connector abutting surface 123s2 abuts against the fourth shell abutting surface 113s2, for example, the fourth shell abutting surface 113s2 abuts against the fourth connector abutting surface 123s2 along the Z axis (for example, the second axis). The first shell 110 further includes a third shell abutting portion 113, wherein the third shell abutting portion 113 is connected to the shell 116 and extends in the direction of the second body side 125s2. The third shell abutting portion 113 has the aforementioned second shell abutting surface 113s1 and the fourth shell abutting surface 113s2. In the embodiment, the third shell abutting portion 113 extends from the shell 116 along the +Z direction, so that the second shell abutting surface 113s1 of the third shell abutting portion 113 and the second connector abutting surface 123s1 of the second elastic arm 123 of the connector 120 can face each other along the X axis (the first axis). Thus, when the connector 120 is assembled with the first housing 110 , the second connector abutting surface 123 s 1 of the second elastic arm 123 and the fourth housing abutting surface 113 s 2 may abut against each other.

[0081] As shown in FIGS. 2B and 3B , a third distance H21 is provided between the second shell abutting surface 113s1 of the third shell abutting portion 113 and the first shell abutting surface 111s of the first shell abutting portion 111 along the X-axis, and a fourth distance H22 is provided between the second connector abutting surface 123s1 of the second elastic arm 123 and the first connector abutting surface 121s of the first connector abutting portion 121 along the X-axis. In one embodiment, the fourth distance H22 is substantially equal to or less than the third distance H21. Thus, when the connector 120 is assembled with the first shell 110, the second shell abutting surface 113s1 of the third shell abutting portion 113 and the second connector abutting surface 123s1 of the second elastic arm 123 can abut against each other, and the first shell abutting surface 111s of the first shell abutting portion 111 and the first connector abutting surface 121s of the first connector abutting portion 121 can abut against each other.

[0082] In one embodiment, the shell 116 and the third shell abutting portion 113 are connected to each other, and are, for example, an integrally formed structure. In terms of manufacturing process, for example, stamping and / or bending methods can be used to form the first shell 110 including the shell 116 and the third shell abutting portion 113.

[0083] As shown in FIGS. 3A and 3B , the second elastic arm 123 is in a free state. Figure 2B As shown, after the connector 120 is assembled with the first housing 110, the second elastic arm 123 is deformed. The deformed second elastic arm 123 provides an elastic restoring force on the third housing abutting portion 113 to abut against the third housing abutting portion 113. This elastic restoring force can also increase the resistance of the connector 120 and the first housing 110 to separate from each other, thereby increasing the fixity between the connector 120 and the housing.

[0084] like Figure 2B As shown, the third shell abutting surface 112s2 of the second shell abutting portion 112 and the fourth shell abutting surface 113s2 of the third shell abutting portion 113 have a fifth distance H31 along the Z axis. Figure 3B As shown, the third connector abutting surface 122s2 of the first elastic arm 122 (the third connector abutting surface 122s2 is shown in Figure 2B ) and the fourth connector abutting surface 123s2 of the second elastic arm 123 (the fourth connector abutting surface 123s2 is shown in FIG. Figure 2B ) has a sixth distance H32 along the Z axis (in the free state). In one embodiment, the fifth distance H31 is smaller than the sixth distance H32. Thus, when the connector 120 is assembled with the first housing 110, the third connector abutting surface 122s2 of the first elastic arm 122 and the fourth connector abutting surface 123s2 of the second elastic arm 123 can respectively abut against the third housing abutting surface 112s2 of the second housing abutting portion 112 and the fourth housing abutting surface 113s2 of the third housing abutting portion 113, and respectively apply elastic restoring force to the third housing abutting surface 112s2 and the fourth housing abutting surface 113s2.

[0085] In summary, since the third shell abutment surface 112s2 and the first elastic arm 122 abut against each other and the fourth shell abutment surface 113s2 and the second elastic arm 123 abut against each other, the displacement freedom of the first shell 110 and the connector 120 along the Z axis can be constrained, and the first shell 110 and the connector 120 will not easily produce unstable relative shaking due to external force to affect the connection stability.

[0086] In addition, in one embodiment, at least one of the first connector abutting portion 121, the first elastic arm 122 and the second elastic arm 123 is an integrally formed structure with the body 125. In terms of manufacturing process, the aforementioned integrally formed structure can be formed by, for example, injection molding technology. In terms of material, the connector 120 can be made of, for example, plastic.

[0087] As shown in FIGS. 1B and 3B , the first housing 110 further includes at least one first abutting portion 114, which is located outside the first housing 110. In this document, elements or structures located outside the outer surface 110s or protruding relative to the outer surface 110s are referred to as "located outside the first housing 110" in this document. The body 125 has a first body abutting surface 125s3, and the first body abutting surface 125s3 is adjacent to the first body side surface 125s1 and the second body side surface 125s2. The first body abutting surface 125s3 and the first abutting portion 114 abut against each other. The first abutting portion 114 extends from the shell 116 along the -X direction, so that the first abutting surface 114s of the first abutting portion 114 can face the first body abutting surface 125s3 of the body 125 of the connector 120. In this way, when the first housing 110 and the connector 120 are assembled, the first abutting surface 114 s of the first abutting portion 114 can stop the connector 120 from being separated from the first housing 110 along the +Y direction.

[0088] In one embodiment, the shell 116 and the first abutting portion 114 are connected to each other, and are, for example, an integrally formed structure. In terms of manufacturing process, for example, stamping and / or bending methods can be used to form the first housing 110 including the shell 116 and the first abutting portion 114 .

[0089] like Figure 1A and 3A As shown in the figure, the second shell 130 includes at least one second abutting portion 131 and a shell 132, wherein the second abutting portion 131 is connected to the shell 132 and is located outside the second shell 130. For example, the shell 132 has an outer surface 132s and protrudes relative to the outer surface 132s. In this article, elements or structures located outside the outer surface 132s or protruding relative to the outer surface 132s are all referred to as "located outside the second shell 130" in this article. In addition, the main body 125 has a second body abutting surface 125s4 opposite to the first body abutting surface 125s3, wherein the second body abutting surface 125s4 is adjacent to the first body side surface 125s1 and the second body side surface 125s2. The second body abutting surface 125s4 and the second abutting portion 131 abut against each other. The second abutting portion 131 extends from the shell 132 along the -X direction, so that the second abutting surface 131s of the second abutting portion 131 (the second abutting surface 131s is shown in Figure 3B ) can face the second body abutting surface 125s4 of the body 125 of the connector 120. In this way, when the second housing 130 is assembled with the connector 120, the second abutting surface 131s of the second abutting portion 131 can stop the connector 120 from being separated from the second housing 130 along the -Y direction.

[0090] In one embodiment, the shell 132 and the second abutting portion 131 are connected to each other, and are, for example, an integrally formed structure. In terms of manufacturing process, for example, stamping and / or bending methods can be used to form the second housing 130 including the shell 132 and the second abutting portion 131 .

[0091] In summary, since the first abutting portion 114 and the first body abutting surface 125s3 abut each other, and the second abutting portion 131 and the second body abutting surface 125s4 abut each other, the relative displacement of the first housing 110 and the connector 120 along the Y axis (for example, the third axis) can be restrained, and the first housing 110 and the connector 120 will not easily produce unstable relative shaking due to external force to affect the connection stability. In addition, the first axis, the second axis and the third axis of this article are not parallel to each other, for example, they are perpendicular to each other.

[0092] As shown in FIGS. 3A and 3B , the first housing 110 and the second housing 130 can be temporarily fixed together by a fixing member 140. The fixing member 140 is, for example, a screw member. After passing through the through hole 130a of the second housing 130, the fixing member 140 is screwed into the screw hole 110b of the first housing 110. In an assembly process, the connector 120 can be first passed through the through hole 110a from the inside of the first housing 110 to the outside until the first connector abutting portion 121 of the connector 120 abuts against the first housing abutting portion 111 of the first housing 110 and the first elastic arm 122 and the second elastic arm 123 are respectively engaged with the second housing abutting portion 112 and the third housing abutting portion 113 of the first housing 110, and then the second housing 130 is assembled to the first housing 110, and then the relative position of the second housing 130 and the first housing 110 is fixed by the fixing member 140. In a disassembly process, the fixing member 140 can be first disassembled, and then the second housing 130 and the first housing 110 are separated. Compared to a single-piece housing, since the housing of the electronic device 100 of the embodiment of the present invention is a two-piece housing (i.e., a first housing 110 and a second housing 130), the friction problem easily caused by a single-piece assembly can be reduced (friction can cause damage to the appearance). For example, after the second housing 130 is separated from the first housing 110, the second abutting portion 131 also separates from the second body abutting surface 125s4, so that during the process of the connector 120 separating from the first housing 110 (e.g., along the +X direction), the second body abutting surface 125s4 will not be scratched by the second abutting portion 131.

[0093] Please refer to Figure 4 , which is Figure 1AA top view of the electronic device 100 (the second housing 130 is omitted).

In addition, the abutment member 360 includes a second abutment portion 131 and a fixing portion 361, and the fixing portion 361 is connected to the second abutment portion 131. The first shell 310, the second shell 330 and the abutment member 360 can be temporarily fixed together by a fixing member 140. The fixing member 140 is, for example, a threaded member, and the fixing member 140 can pass through the through hole 310a of the first shell 310 and the through hole 361a of the fixing portion 361, and be screwed into the screw hole 330a of the second shell 330. In another embodiment, the abutting member 360 may be integrated with the first housing 310 . For example, the abutting member 360 and the first housing 310 are an integrally formed structure.

[0098] In summary, the electronic device of the embodiment of the present invention includes a housing and a connector. In one embodiment, the housing includes a plurality of housing abutting surfaces, and the connector includes a plurality of connector abutting surfaces. The first of these housing abutting surfaces abuts against the first of these connector abutting surfaces along a first axis, the second of these housing abutting surfaces abuts against the second of these connector abutting surfaces along a second axis, and the third of these housing abutting surfaces abuts against the third of these connector abutting surfaces along a third axis. For example, the housing includes a first housing abutting portion (or a first housing abutting surface), and the connector includes a first connector abutting portion (or a first connector abutting surface), the first connector abutting portion abuts against the first housing abutting portion along a first axis (e.g., X axis), so that the first housing abutting portion stops the connector from detaching from the housing along a first direction (e.g., -X direction) of the first axis. In one embodiment, the housing includes a second housing abutment surface, and the connector includes a second connector abutment surface, the second connector abutment surface and the second housing abutment surface abut against each other along a first axis (e.g., X axis), so that the second housing abutment surface stops the connector from being separated from the housing along a second direction of the first axis (e.g., +X direction). In one embodiment, the housing includes a third housing abutment surface, and the connector includes a third connector abutment surface, the third connector abutment surface and the third housing abutment surface abut against each other along a second axis (e.g., Z axis), so that the third housing abutment surface stops the connector from being separated from the housing along a first direction of the second axis (e.g., +Z direction). In one embodiment, the housing includes a fourth housing abutment surface, and the connector includes a fourth connector abutment surface, the fourth connector abutment surface and the fourth housing abutment surface abut against each other along a second axis (e.g., Z axis), so that the fourth housing abutment surface stops the connector from being separated from the housing along a second direction of the second axis (e.g., -Z direction). In one embodiment, the housing includes a first abutting surface, and the connector includes a first body abutting surface, the first abutting surface and the first body abutting surface abut each other along a third axis (e.g., the Y axis), so that the first abutting surface stops the connector from being separated from the housing along a first direction of the third axis (e.g., the +Y direction). In one embodiment, the housing includes a second abutting surface, and the connector includes a second body abutting surface, the second abutting surface and the second body abutting surface abut each other along the third axis (e.g., the Y axis), so that the second abutting surface stops the connector from being separated from the housing along a second direction of the third axis (e.g., the -Y direction). Based on the above embodiments, the displacement freedom of the housing and the connector along at least one of the first axis, the second axis and the third axis can be constrained. In other embodiments, the housing can be a multi-piece assembled housing, which can reduce the friction problem that is easily caused by a single-piece housing.

[0099] In summary, although the present invention has been disclosed as above by way of embodiments, it is not intended to limit the present invention. A person skilled in the art of the present invention can make various modifications without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention.
