[0039] Through the above-mentioned drawings, specific embodiments of the present disclosure have been shown, and there will be more detailed descriptions hereinafter. These drawings and textual descriptions are not intended to limit the scope of the concept of the present disclosure in any way, but to illustrate the concept of the present disclosure to those skilled in the art by referring to specific embodiments. Detailed implementation manners

[0040] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the present disclosure clearer, the following will further describe the embodiments of the present application in detail with reference to the drawings.

[0041] In the related art, as shown in Figure 6 , the female connector includes a housing 1, an insulating body 2, and a terminal 3. The housing 1 and the insulating body 2 are connected by a buckle 10 to limit the position of the insulating body 2. After the male connector 100 is inserted into the female connector, the male connector 100 abuts against the insulating body 2, and the terminals of the male connector 100 are electrically connected to the terminals 3 of the female connector.

[0042] The connection strength at the buckle 10 between the housing 1 and the insulating body 2 is relatively low. When the male connector 100 impacts the female connector (the direction of the impact force is shown by the arrow in Figure 6 ), since the male connector 100 abuts against the insulating body 2, the impact force will be transmitted to the insulating body 2. Since the buckle 10 abuts against the insulating body 2, at this time, the buckle 10 will have problems such as deformation, fracture, loosening, and detachment and fail, resulting in a certain displacement of the insulating body 2 along the impact direction. The corresponding pins and interfaces of the male connector 100 and the female connector cannot be normally electrically connected, and the USB connector malfunctions.

[0043] In view of the above technical problems, the embodiments of the present disclosure provide a female connector. As shown in Figure 1 , the female connector includes a housing 1, an insulating body 2, a plurality of terminals 3, and a limiting plate 4. The housing 1 has a hollow structure with openings at both ends. The insulating body 2 is fixed inside the housing 1. A plurality of terminals 3 are embedded in the insulating body 2. The first ends 3a of the plurality of terminals 3 are used for electrical connection with the circuit board, and the second ends 3b are used for electrical connection with the male connector 100. The limiting plate 4 is located at the opening of the housing 1 near the first end 3a. The limiting plate 4 is connected to the housing 1 and abuts against the insulating body 2.

[0044] In this way, when the male connector 100 and the female connector are assembled and a certain impact is applied to the female connector (the direction of the impact force is shown by the arrow inFigure 5 When the arrow direction in (is), the impact force is transmitted from the male connector 100 to the insulating body 2. At the same time, the insulating body 2 abuts against the limiting plate 4. Since the contact area between the limiting plate 4 and the insulating body 2 is large, and the connection strength between the limiting plate 4 and the housing 1 is high, the risk of fracture between the limiting plate 4 and the housing 1 is low. Furthermore, it can ensure that the insulating body 2 does not displace, ensuring that both ends of the multiple terminals 3 can be respectively in good electrical connection with the circuit board and the male connector 100, and improving the working life of the female connector.

[0045] The present disclosure does not specifically limit the material of the insulating body 2, and it can be selected according to factors such as its electrical performance, physical performance, cost, and processing difficulty. For example: polyvinyl chloride (PVC), polyester fiber (PET), liquid crystal polymer (LCP), nylon (such as nylon 46, that is, PA46), etc.

[0046] In some embodiments, the housing 1 is a housing made of a metal material. The housing 1 supported by the metal material has a high structural strength, can effectively reduce the deformation degree of the hollow structure, and further effectively support and protect the insulating body 2 and the multiple terminals 3, ensuring that the multiple terminals 3 can be respectively in good electrical connection with the circuit board and the male connector 100.

[0047] For example, the material of the housing 1 can be brass, which is an alloy formed by combining copper and zinc elements, and has good elasticity, high strength, and good moldability. Again for example: the material of the housing 1 can also be beryllium copper, which is an alloy of copper and beryllium, and has significant advantages such as high conductivity, good wear resistance, and good corrosion resistance. Also for example: the material of the housing 1 can also be stainless steel, which is a strong metal alloy and can ensure that the female connector can still be used normally in extreme temperature and humidity environments.

[0048] In some embodiments, the limiting plate 4 is a baffle made of a metal material, such as: brass, beryllium copper, stainless steel, etc. The limiting plate 4 made of a metal material has a high structural strength by itself. When receiving the impact force transmitted by the insulating body 2, the limiting plate 4 made of a metal material is not prone to deformation, cracks and other phenomena, and can effectively limit the position of the insulating body 2.

[0049] The present disclosure does not specifically limit the number of the limiting plates 4, and it can be set according to factors such as the shape and size of the opening of the housing 1 near the first end 3a, the heat dissipation requirements of the female connector, etc. For example: the limiting plate 4 can be one, as shown in reference to Figure 1 shown. Again for example: the limiting plate 4 can be multiple, and the multiple limiting plates 4 are placed in parallel, and there is a gap between adjacent limiting plates 4.

[0050] Refer to Figure 4As shown, in some embodiments, the limiting plate 4 is welded to the housing 1. When the materials of the limiting plate 4 and the housing 1 are different, the two ends of the limiting plate 4 can be welded to the housing 1 respectively to fix the limiting plate 4 to the housing 1; when the materials of the limiting plate 4 and the housing 1 are the same, the limiting plate 4 and the housing 1 can be integrally stamped and bent, and only one end of the limiting plate 4 is welded to the housing 1, that is, one end of the limiting plate 4 is fixed to the housing 1 by an integrally formed method, and the other end is fixed to the housing 1 by welding. In this way, the welding area can be reduced and the processing efficiency of the female connector can be improved.

[0051] In some embodiments, the limiting plate 4 and the housing 1 are connected by a laser welding (also known as laser beam welding) process. First, the energy release of laser welding is extremely rapid, and the entire welding process can be completed within a few seconds, greatly improving the welding production efficiency. Second, the solder joints 40 produced by laser welding are flat and beautiful. After welding, no treatment or only simple treatment is required to achieve a high welding quality, thereby ensuring a high connection strength between the limiting plate 4 and the housing 1. Under the impact of the male connector 100, the risk of detachment between the limiting plate 4 and the housing 1 is relatively low. Third, the laser beam has high processing accuracy and can be accurately positioned. For workpieces with a small overall size such as the female connector, mass automated production can also be achieved.

[0052] Refer to Figure 2 As shown, in some embodiments, the insulating body 2 includes a tail seat area 21 and a tongue plate area 22. The tail seat area 21 and the tongue plate area 22 are connected, and the tail seat area 21 abuts against the limiting plate 4.

[0053] The present disclosure does not limit the connection method between the tail seat area 21 and the tongue plate area 22, which can be matched and set according to factors such as the required connection strength between the tail seat area 21 and the tongue plate area 22 and the material. For example, when the insulating body 2 is made of plastic, the tail seat area 21 and the tongue plate area 22 can be integrally formed by injection molding; for another example, the tail seat area 21 and the tongue plate area 22 can be connected by glue bonding.

[0054] Refer to Figure 2 As shown, in some embodiments, the tail seat area 21 has a first accommodation groove 21a for accommodating a plurality of terminals 3, and the first accommodation groove 21a is adapted to the shape of the plurality of terminals 3 on the side close to the first end 3a.

[0055] The first end 3a of the terminal 3 can be a plug pin structure to facilitate insertion into the insertion hole of the circuit board, thereby realizing the electrical connection between the terminal 3 and the circuit board. The end of the tail seat area 21 can be flush with the end of the housing 1. On the one hand, it can avoid the tail seat area 21 protruding outside the housing 1, thereby reducing the risk of damage to the tail seat area 21 due to extrusion and friction. On the other hand, the flush ends of the tail seat area 21 and the housing 1 reduce the assembly difficulty of the female connector, facilitate improving the production efficiency of the female connector, and reduce the manufacturing cost of the female connector.

[0056] Referring Figure 2 As shown, in some embodiments, the tongue plate area 22 has a second accommodation groove 22a for accommodating a plurality of terminals 3, and the second accommodation groove 22a is adapted to the shape of the plurality of terminals 3 on the side close to the second end 3b.

[0057] The tongue plate area 22 is adapted to the shape of the male connector 100. For example, the tongue plate area 22 can be a cuboid structure to reduce the friction between the tongue plate area 22 and the male connector 100, facilitating the insertion or extraction of the male connector 100 and the female connector.

[0058] The end of the tongue plate area 22 can be flush with the end of the housing 1. On the one hand, it can avoid the tongue plate area 22 protruding outside the housing 1, thereby reducing the risk of damage to the tongue plate area 22 due to extrusion and friction. On the other hand, the flush ends of the tongue plate area 22 and the housing 1 reduce the assembly difficulty of the female connector, facilitate improving the production efficiency of the female connector, and reduce the manufacturing cost of the female connector.

[0059] Referring Figure 3 As shown, in some embodiments, the housing 1 has a connecting member 11 protruding from the outer surface of the housing 1, and the connecting member 11 is used for fixing the circuit board to the housing 1.

[0060] The present disclosure does not specifically limit the shape of the connecting member 11, which can be selected according to the connection method between the circuit board and the housing 1. For example, if the circuit board and the housing 1 are connected by a welding process, the connecting member 11 can be a bent rectangular plate to increase the structural strength at the solder joint. For another example, if the circuit board and the housing 1 are connected by a snap-fit method, the connecting member 11 can be a protruding structure, and the circuit board has a corresponding groove structure, and the protruding structure abuts against the groove structure to realize the fixation of the circuit board to the housing 1.

[0061] The present disclosure does not specifically limit the number of the connecting members 11. Taking the bent rectangular plate used for welding as an example of the connecting member 11, the bent rectangular plate can be along the impact direction (referring to Figure 5The arrow directions (in the figure) are symmetrically distributed on the outer wall of the housing 1 to ensure uniform stress distribution at the connection. The bent rectangular plate can also be set according to the structure and shape of the female connector housing. For example, the first end 3a of the terminal 3 is a plug pin structure, and the self-strength of the plug pin is relatively small, and it is prone to problems such as bending and breaking. Therefore, the connecting member 11 can be arranged in the area of the housing 1 corresponding to the first end 3a of the terminal 3 to ensure the relative position of the plug pin structure of the first end 3a of the terminal 3 and the plug hole of the circuit board is fixed, reduce the occurrence of damage to the plug pins, and thus improve the working life of the female connector housing and the user experience.

[0062] Referring to Figure 5 As shown, in some embodiments, the housing 1 has a snap protrusion 12 that protrudes from the inner wall of the hollow structure. The snap protrusion 12 is used for limiting the female connector housing and the male connector 100. During the process of gradually inserting the male connector 100 into the hollow structure of the female connector housing, the snap protrusion 12 can cooperate with a corresponding snap groove (not shown in the drawings) on the male connector 100 to limit the male connector 100. On the one hand, the structure in which the snap protrusion 12 cooperates with the snap groove can, on the premise of ensuring good electrical connection between the second end 3b of the terminal 3 and the male connector 100, prevent the male connector 100 from entering the hollow structure of the female connector housing too much, thereby reducing the impact on the insulating body 2 and the limiting plate 4 and reducing the phenomenon of displacement of the insulating body 2. On the other hand, the cooperation between the snap protrusion 12 and the snap groove can give the user a better tactile feedback during the process of gradually inserting the male connector 100 into the hollow structure of the female connector housing, so that the user can clearly sense the completion of the assembly work of the male connector 100 and the female connector housing.

[0063] Based on the same concept, the embodiments of the present disclosure also provide an electronic device, which may include the female connector housing in the above embodiments.

[0064] The electronic device involved in the present disclosure may also be referred to as a terminal, a mobile terminal, a terminal device, a user equipment (UE), etc. Exemplarily, the electronic device may be a smart phone, a tablet computer, a laptop computer, a wearable device (such as a smart watch), etc., or may also be a professional shooting device such as a digital camera, a single-lens reflex camera / mirrorless camera, a gimbal camera, an action camera, a drone, etc. It should be understood that the present disclosure does not specifically limit the specific technologies and specific device forms adopted by the terminal device.

[0065] In some embodiments, the electronic device is a laptop computer, which has a housing, a circuit board, a screen, and a keyboard. The circuit board is located inside the housing, and the female connector, the screen, and the keyboard are all located on the housing and are electrically connected to the circuit board. The opening direction of the female connector faces the outside of the housing.

[0066] The female connector in the laptop computer can be used to detachably connect to the corresponding male connector 100 in other electronic devices (such as a mouse, a keyboard, a headset, etc.). At the same time, the female connector is electrically connected to the circuit board in the laptop computer, thereby realizing the wired or wireless connection between the laptop computer and other electronic devices to achieve the corresponding functions after the connection of other electronic devices to the laptop computer, such as an external speaker, an external keyboard, etc.

[0067] In this way, when the male connector 100 in other electronic devices is assembled with the female connector in the laptop computer or during the assembly process, and a certain impact is generated on the female connector (the direction of the impact force refers to the arrow direction in Figure 5 ), the impact force is transmitted from the male connector 100 to the insulating body 2. At the same time, the insulating body 2 abuts against the limiting plate 4. Since the contact area between the limiting plate 4 and the insulating body 2 is large, and the connection strength between the limiting plate 4 and the housing 1 is high, the risk of fracture between the limiting plate 4 and the housing 1 is low. Furthermore, it can ensure that the insulating body 2 does not displace, ensuring that both ends of the plurality of terminals 3 can be respectively in good electrical connection with the circuit board and the male connector 100, improving the working life of the female connector, and thus improving the user experience of the electronic device with the female connector of the present disclosure and reducing the after-sales repair rate of the electronic device.
