DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0020] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.

[0021] In the description of the present utility model, it should be noted that, unless otherwise clearly specified and limited, the terms "installed", "connected", "fixed", and "connected" should be understood in a broad sense, for example, it can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; it can be a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; it can be directly connected or indirectly connected through an intermediate medium, and it can be the internal communication of two components. For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in this application can be understood by specific circumstances.

[0022] In the present utility model, unless otherwise clearly specified and limited, a first feature being "above" or "below" a second feature may include the first feature being in direct contact with the second feature, or may include the first feature being in contact with the second feature through another feature between them instead of being in direct contact. Moreover, a first feature being "above", "below" and "above" a second feature includes the first feature being directly above and obliquely above the second feature, or simply indicates that the first feature is higher in level than the second feature. A first feature being "below", "below" and "below" a second feature includes the first feature being below and obliquely below the second feature, or simply indicates that the first feature is lower in level than the second feature.

[0023] In the description of this embodiment, it should be understood that the terms "center", "longitudinal", "lateral", "up", "down", "front", "back", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "top", "bottom", "inside", "outside", etc., indicating the orientation or position relationship are based on the orientation or position relationship shown in the accompanying drawings, and are only for the convenience of describing the present application and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore cannot be understood as limiting the scope of protection of the present application.

[0024] In addition, the terms "first", "second", etc. are only used to distinguish in description and have no special meaning.

[0025] Combination Figures 2 to 4 As shown, the circuit board spacer of this embodiment includes a main body 1, a first support portion 2 arranged on one side of the main body 1, and a second support portion 3 arranged on the other side of the main body 1. Figure 5 As shown, the first support portion 2 is provided with a through hole 21 for connecting with the first circuit board 10. The through hole 21 can be a threaded hole or a smooth hole. When the through hole 21 is a smooth hole, the first circuit board 10 and the first support portion 2 can be fastened with self-tapping screws; the second support portion 3 is used to snap into the second circuit board 20. Specifically, the edge of the second circuit board 20 can be snapped into the second support portion 3.

[0026] By adopting the above structure, the circuit board spacers of the present embodiment can simultaneously support the first circuit board 10 and the second circuit board 20 on the housing 30, so that the first circuit board 10 and the second circuit board 20 share one (or a group, a group has multiple) spacer columns on the facing sides, which saves the setting of spacer columns and also saves consumables such as screws; in addition, since the second circuit board 20 is clamped with the second support part 3, the punching process can also be omitted.

[0027] like Figure 2 As shown, the main body 1 of this embodiment includes a bottom plate 11 and a vertical plate 12 vertically connected to the bottom plate 11. The bottom plate 11 is used to abut against the housing 30, a first support portion 2 is provided on one side of the vertical plate 12, and a second support portion 3 is provided on the other side of the vertical plate 12. The vertical plate 12 can also play a role in spacing the first circuit board 10 and the second circuit board 20.

[0028] like Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, the first supporting portion 2 of this embodiment is a first horizontal plate connected to the vertical plate 12, and the through hole 21 is disposed on the first horizontal plate.

[0029] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the second support portion 3 of this embodiment includes a second horizontal plate 31 and a support plate 32. The second horizontal plate 31 is connected to the vertical plate 12 of the main body 1 and is parallel to the bottom plate 11, and the support plate 32 is connected to the bottom plate 11. The end of the support plate 32 away from the bottom plate 11 is parallel to the second horizontal plate 31, and the two surround a clamping groove for accommodating the second circuit board 20, and the thickness of the clamping groove is substantially equal to the thickness of the second circuit board 20.

[0030] like Figure 4 As shown, the bottom plate 11 of this embodiment is provided with a boss 4 on the side away from the vertical plate 12. The boss 4 is generally cross-shaped, and the main body 1 abuts against the housing 30 through the boss 4. With this structure, the problem of poor flatness between the bottom plate 11 and the housing 30 due to the large contact area can be avoided.

[0031] The main body 1, the first support part 2, the second support part 3 and the boss 4 of this embodiment are integrally formed by an injection mold. In other words, the spacer column of this embodiment is produced by an injection mold, which has the advantages of high production efficiency and high quality stability.

[0032] The present invention uses specific embodiments to illustrate the principles and implementation methods of the present invention. The description of the above embodiments is only used to help understand the method and core idea of ​​the present invention. At the same time, for those skilled in the art, according to the idea of ​​the present invention, there will be changes in the specific implementation methods and application scope. In summary, the content of this specification should not be understood as a limitation on the present invention.
