[0035] The realization, functional features and advantages of the utility model will be further described with reference to the embodiments and the accompanying drawings. Specific embodiments

[0036] The following will clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present utility model in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present utility model, rather than all embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art based on the embodiments of the present utility model without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0037] The present utility model provides a female connector terminal structure, as Figures 1 to 13 shown. A preferred embodiment of the female connector terminal structure of the present utility model includes: a housing 10, a plurality of first female terminals 20 and a plurality of second female terminals 30 disposed in the housing 10, and the plurality of first female terminals 20 and the plurality of second female terminals 30 are alternately arranged in the housing 10.

[0038] In this embodiment, the plurality of first female terminals 20 and the plurality of second female terminals 30 are alternately arranged in the housing 10. Thus, it is possible to reduce the distance between adjacent first female terminals 20 and second terminals, reduce the volume of the connector, and avoid short circuits caused by contact between adjacent first female terminals 20 and second female terminals 30, improve the stability of the connector, and the assembly is simple and convenient.

[0039] Further, in this embodiment, a plurality of first fixing grooves 101 for fixing the plurality of first female terminals 20 and a plurality of second fixing grooves 104 for fixing the plurality of second female terminals 30 are longitudinally arranged in the housing 10, and the plurality of first fixing grooves 101 and the plurality of second fixing grooves 104 are alternately arranged.

[0040] The front end of the first female terminal 20 is provided with a U-shaped clamping portion. The inner side wall of the U-shaped clamping portion protrudes outward to form a first clamping portion 201, and the outer side wall protrudes outward to form a second clamping portion 202. The front end of the first fixing groove 101 is provided with a first clamping groove 102 for clamping the first clamping portion 201 and a second clamping groove 103 for clamping the second clamping portion 202.

[0041] The height of the first clamping portion 201 is higher than the height of the second clamping portion 202, and the depth of the first clamping groove 102 is greater than the depth of the second clamping groove 103.

[0042] The front end of the second female terminal 30 is L-shaped. The front end of the second female terminal 30 is provided with a third clamping portion 301. The front end of the second fixing groove 104 is provided with a third clamping groove 105 for clamping the third clamping portion 301, and the third clamping groove 105 is located between the first clamping groove 102 and the second clamping groove 103.

[0043] In this embodiment, since the third card slot 105 is located between the first card slot 102 and the second card slot 103, the third card holding portion 301 is located between the first card holding portion 201 and the second card holding portion 202, thereby avoiding the third card holding portion 301 from contacting and interfering with the first card holding portion 201 and the second card holding portion 202 to cause a short circuit, thereby ensuring an electrical gap in a very small space.

[0044] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the ends of the first female terminal 20 and the second female terminal 30 are inclined upward and extend outward to form a fixing portion 203 for fixing the first female terminal 20 or the second female terminal 30 to the corresponding first fixing groove 101 or the second fixing groove 104.

[0045] In this embodiment, the size of the fixing portion 203 formed by the outward extension of the ends of the first female terminal 20 and the second female terminal 30 is larger than the size of the corresponding first fixing groove 101 or the second fixing groove 104, so that it can just clamp the edge of the shell 10, which is beneficial to limit the position of all the first female terminals 20 and all the second female terminals 30 after assembly, thereby improving assembly stability.

[0046] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the rear ends of the first female terminal 20 and the second female terminal 30 are V-shaped, and the bottom of the V-shaped structure forms a contact 204 for contacting the male connector. In this embodiment, all the contacts 204 are in a straight line.

[0047] In this embodiment, a plug hole 106 for plugging in the male connector is provided in the housing 10. When the male connector is inserted into the plug hole 106, the contacts 204 come into contact with the contacts 204 of the male connector to achieve electrical conduction.

[0048] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the shell is made of plastic.

[0049] The beneficial effects of the female terminal structure of the connector of the utility model are:

[0050] The present invention adopts the above technical solution, including: a shell, a plurality of first female terminals and a plurality of second female terminals arranged in the shell, and the plurality of first female terminals and the plurality of second female terminals are staggered in the shell. This can achieve the goal of reducing the spacing between adjacent first female terminals and second terminals and reducing the volume of the connector while avoiding short circuits caused by contact between adjacent first female terminals and second female terminals, thereby improving the stability of the connector and simplifying and facilitating assembly.

[0051] To achieve the above object, the present utility model further provides a connector, which includes the female connector terminal structure as described in the above embodiment. The structure and working principle of the female connector terminal structure have been elaborated in detail above and will not be repeated here.

[0052] The above are only the preferred embodiments of the present utility model, and do not limit the patent scope of the present utility model. Any equivalent structural transformation made by using the content of the specification and drawings of the present utility model under the concept of the present utility model, or direct / indirect application in other related technical fields, is included in the patent protection scope of the present utility model.
