[0030] In order to more clearly understand the above-mentioned purposes, features and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention, the scheme of the embodiments of the present invention will be further described below. It should be noted that the embodiments of the present invention and the features in the embodiments can be combined with each other without conflict.

[0031] In the following description, many specific details are set forth to facilitate a full understanding of the embodiments of the utility model, but the embodiments of the utility model can also be implemented in other ways different from those described herein; obviously, the embodiments in the specification are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, rather than all of the embodiments.

[0032] Reference Figures 1 to 4 As shown, this embodiment provides a connector structure, including a shielding cover 1, a connecting male socket 2, a connecting female socket 3 and a mainboard 4.

[0033] The shielding cover 1 is arranged on the main board 4, and two extension structures 11 are arranged on the shielding cover 1, and the two extension structures 11 are arranged at intervals along the length direction of the shielding cover 1; the connecting male socket 2 and the connecting female socket 3 are both located between the two extension structures 11, and the connecting male socket 2 and the connecting female socket 3 are arranged in sequence along the direction from the shielding cover 1 to the main board 4, and the connecting female socket 3 is connected to the main board 4.

[0034] A limiting structure 12 is provided on the side of the two extension structures 11 close to each other, and the male connector 2 abuts against a side of the limiting structure 12 close to the main board 4 to limit the male connector 2 from moving away from the female connector 3 until it is separated from the female connector 3 .

[0035] When implementing it, refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the shielding cover 1 is arranged on the main board 4. In this case, the shielding cover 1 can be located above or on the upper surface of the main board 4 and can be connected to the main board 4 by welding. Two extension structures 11 can be arranged on one side of the shielding cover 1. The two extension structures 11 can be arranged along Figure 1 The x-direction spacing shown is arranged so that a gap can be formed between the two extension structures 11, and the male connection socket 2 and the female connection socket 3 are both located in the gap, and the male connection socket 2 is located above the female connection socket 3, and the female connection socket 3 and the main board 4 can be welded and connected.

[0036] The limiting structure 12 is set on the side of the two extension structures 11 close to each other, which can be understood as: for the left extension structure 11, the limiting structure 12 is set on the right side of the left extension structure 11, and for the right extension structure 11, the limiting structure 12 is set on the left side of the right extension structure 11.

[0037] The connecting male socket 2 abuts against the side of the two limiting structures 12 close to the main board 4, that is, against the lower surface of the two limiting structures 12, thereby limiting the movement of the connecting male socket 2 in the direction away from the connecting female socket 3, that is, limiting the upward movement of the connecting male socket 2, and then the connecting male socket 2 and the connecting female socket 3 can maintain reliable contact and cooperation, thereby ensuring the stability and reliability of the connection function of the connector structure.

[0038] The connector structure of this embodiment provides a limiting structure 12 on the side of the two extension structures 11 of the shielding cover 1 close to each other, so that the male connector 2 abuts against the side of the corresponding limiting structure 12 close to the main board 4, thereby limiting the male connector 2 from moving in a direction away from the main board 4 or the female connector 3 until it is separated from the female connector 3. That is, by limiting the movement of the male connector 2, the male connector 2 can always maintain reliable contact and cooperation with the female connector 3, thereby avoiding the problem of failure of the connection function of the connector structure caused by the separation of the two.

[0039] Reference Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, in some embodiments, the limiting structure 12 includes a limiting body 121 and a stopper 122, one end of the limiting body 121 is connected to the extension structure 11, and the stopper 122 is located at one end of the limiting body 121 away from the main board 4 and connected to the other end of the limiting body 121.

[0040] A surface of the abutting top portion 122 close to the main board 4 forms a limiting surface 123 , and the connecting male socket 2 abuts against the limiting surface 123 .

[0041] In specific implementation, the limiting structure 12 may include a limiting body 121 and a top portion 122, the top portion 122 may be disposed at the upper end of the limiting body 121 and connected to the limiting body 121, the lower surface of the top portion 122 may form a limiting surface 123, the male connector 2 abuts against the limiting surface 123, thereby limiting the male connector 2 from moving in a direction away from the main board 4 or the female connector 3 until it is separated from the female connector 3. That is, by limiting the movement of the male connector 2, the male connector 2 can always maintain reliable contact and cooperation with the female connector 3, thereby avoiding the problem of failure of the connection function of the connector structure caused by the separation of the two.

[0042] Exemplarily, the limiting surface 123 may be a plane, or may be a curved surface or a surface of other shapes.

[0043] Exemplarily, the limiting structure 12 as a whole can be made of metal or non-metal with shielding properties.

[0044] Reference Figure 4 As shown, in some embodiments, the abutting top portion 122 is inclined or bent toward the direction close to the main board 4, so that the abutting top portion 122 can extend above the connecting male socket 2 and can partially abut on the upper surface of the connecting male socket 2 to limit the upward movement of the connecting male socket 2.

[0045] Reference Figure 4 As shown, in some embodiments, the abutting top portion 122 includes a hook bent toward a direction close to the main board 4 , and the limiting surface 123 is disposed on a side of the hook close to the main board 4 .

[0046] That is to say, the abutting portion 122 is bent toward the direction close to the main board 4 to form a hook, and the hook can partially extend to the top of the connecting male socket 2 and can abut against the upper surface of the connecting male socket 2, thereby limiting the upward movement of the connecting male socket 2.

[0047] Exemplarily, when the abutting top portion 122 is a curved hook, the limiting surface 123 may be the lower surface of the curved hook, that is, the limiting surface 123 may be a curved surface, or the limiting surface 123 may be the end surface of the curved hook, and the limiting surface 123 may be a plane.

[0048] In some embodiments, along the height direction of the shielding cover 1 , the height of the limiting surface 123 from the main board 4 is equal to the distance from the main board 4 to the side of the connecting male socket 2 away from the connecting female socket 3 .

[0049] That is, refer to Figure 4 In the upper and lower directions shown, the height of the limit surface 123 from the main board 4 is equal to the distance between the upper surface of the connecting male socket 2 and the main board 4, so that the distance between the limit surface 123 and the main board 4 can just accommodate the connecting male socket 2 and the connecting female socket 3, thereby maintaining close fitting contact between the connecting male socket 2 and the connecting female socket 3 to ensure reliable cooperation between the two, and then ensure the stability of the connection function of the connector structure.

[0050] Reference Figure 4 As shown, in some embodiments, the limiting body 121 includes a limiting plate extending in the direction from the mainboard 4 to the shielding cover 1, that is, the limiting body 121 can be a sheet-like structure extending in the up and down directions, so that its overall size and weight are small, which is conducive to realizing the lightweight and miniaturized design of the connector structure.

[0051] Alternatively, in other implementations, the limiting body 121 may also be configured as a limiting block extending along the direction from the mainboard 4 to the shielding cover 1 .

[0052] Exemplarily, the limiting body 121 and the abutting top portion 122 are integrally formed to save manufacturing steps and improve the overall structural strength of the entire limiting structure 12 .

[0053] Reference Figure 4 As shown, in some embodiments, a limiting cavity 124 is formed between the limiting body 121 and the abutting top portion 122, and the portion connecting the male seat 2 and the portion connecting the female seat 3 are both located in the limiting cavity 124, so that the connecting male seat 2 can be reliably blocked by the lower surface of the abutting top portion 122 to prevent upward movement.

[0054] In some embodiments, the length of the projection of the connection male socket 2 on the limiting structure 12 is greater than 0.2 mm along the length direction of the shielding cover 1. In other words, part of the limiting structure 12 extends above the connection male socket 2, so that there is an overlap or overlapping area between the two in the length direction of the shielding cover 1, and then the connection male socket 2 can be reliably blocked by the lower surface of the limiting structure 12 to prevent it from moving upward.

[0055] For example, along the length direction of the shielding cover 1 , the length of the projection of the connecting male socket 2 on the limiting structure 12 may be 0.21 mm, or 0.25 mm, or 0.3 mm.

[0056] In some embodiments, along the length direction of the shielding cover 1, the difference between the length dimension of the two limiting structures 12 and the length dimension of the connecting male socket 2 is greater than 0.2 mm, that is, the length between the two limiting structures 12 is greater than the length of the connecting male socket 2, so that the top portion 122 of the limiting structure 12 can extend and be located above the connecting male socket 2 to push against the connecting male socket 2.

[0057] For example, along the length direction of the shielding cover 1 , the difference between the length dimension between the two limiting structures 12 and the length dimension of the connecting male socket 2 may be 0.21 mm, or 0.22 mm, or 0.25 mm.

[0058] In some embodiments, the limiting structure 12 and the corresponding extending structure 11 are integrally formed to save manufacturing steps and improve the structural strength of the entire limiting structure 12 .

[0059] In some embodiments, the extension structure 11 includes an extension piece, and the extension piece and the shielding cover 1 are integrally formed to save manufacturing steps and improve the structural strength of the entire shielding cover 1 .
