[0026] See also Figures 1 to 10 As shown, a preferred embodiment of the present invention discloses a board-to-board connector comprising a mating receptacle connector 100 and a plug connector 200. The receptacle connector 100 is used to be mounted on a circuit board and includes a longitudinally extending receptacle body 10, receptacle terminals 20 retained on the receptacle body 10, and receptacle protection brackets 30 located at longitudinal ends of the receptacle body 10.

[0027] See also Figures 2 to 3 As shown, the socket body 10 includes a central island portion 11 extending longitudinally, two side portions 12 located on either side of the island portion 11, and two end portions 13 connected to the two side portions 12. The island portion 11, the two side portions 12, and the two end portions 13 collectively define a socket slot 14. That is, the island portion 11 is located within the socket slot 14, and the socket slot 14 can accommodate the insertion of the plug connector 200.

[0028] Combine Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the socket protection bracket 30 includes an end protection bracket 40 fixed on the end 13 and an island protection bracket 50 separately provided from the end protection bracket 40. The end protection bracket 40 is drawn and formed by metal parts and covers the end 13 and at least part of the side 12. The island protection bracket 50 covers at least the longitudinal sides of the island 11 to enhance the overall strength of the socket connector 100.

[0029] The end protection bracket 40 is provided with an outer shielding portion 31 of the socket that is drawn upward and formed, and an inner shielding portion 32 of the socket that is drawn downward from the top surface of the outer shielding portion 31 of the socket. The outer shielding portion 31 of the socket covers the outer wall surface of the end portion 13 and at least part of the side portion 12, and the inner shielding portion 32 of the socket covers the inner wall surface of the side portion 12 and the end portion 13. Thus, the outer shielding portion 31 of the socket enhances the overall strength of the socket body 10, thereby preventing the socket body 10 from being scratched, and the inner shielding portion 32 of the socket enhances the ability to resist dislocation and deformation.

[0030] Specifically, the socket outer shielding portion 31 includes an end top plate portion 41 that covers the top surface of the end portion 13, an end outer plate portion 42 that bends downward from the longitudinal outer side of the end top plate portion 41, a side top plate portion 44 that covers the top surface of the side portion 12, and a side outer plate portion 45 that bends downward from the transverse outer side of the side top plate portion 44. The side top plate portion 44 is connected to both transverse ends of the end top plate portion 41, the end outer plate portion 42 covers the outer wall surface of the end portion 13, and the side outer plate portion 45 at least partially covers the outer wall surface of the side portion 12 and is connected to the end outer plate portion 42; thus, the end top plate portion 41, the side top plate portion 44, the end outer plate portion 42, and the side outer plate portion 45 form a seamless connection with each other.

[0031] The socket inner shielding portion 32 is provided with an end inner plate portion 43 bent downward from the longitudinal inner side of the end top plate portion 41 and a side inner plate portion 46 bent downward from the lateral inner side of the side top plate portion 44. The end inner plate portion 43 covers the inner wall surface of the end portion 13, and the side inner plate portion 46 covers part of the inner wall surface of the side portion 12 and is connected to the end inner plate portion 43; thus, the end protection bracket 40 forms an integral metal drawing part.

[0032] The island protection bracket 50 comprises a bottom plate 51 located at the bottom of the receptacle slot 14, an island shielding portion 52 formed by drawing upward from the longitudinal inner side of the bottom plate 51, and two clamping arms 54 extending transversely from the bottom plate 51 to the side portion 12. The two clamping arms 54 are located on either side of the island shielding portion 52. The island shielding portion 52 does not overlap with the longitudinal projection of the end protection bracket 40. The island shielding portion 52 covers both longitudinal sides of the island portion 11 and does not extend beyond the top and side surfaces of the island portion 11, thereby enhancing the overall strength of the island portion 11. The side portion 12 is provided with a relief groove 15 recessed inward from the inner wall. The relief groove 15 is located longitudinally inward of the side top plate 44 and communicates with the receptacle slot 14. The clamping arms 54 are received in the relief groove 15 to engage with the side shielding portion 83 of the plug protection bracket 80 of the plug connector 200.

[0033] The island protection bracket 50 includes an end fixing portion 53 that extends longitudinally outwardly from the bottom plate 51 and two island welding tabs 55 that extend longitudinally outward from the bottom plate 51. The end fixing portion 53 is embedded within the end portion 13 and is covered by the end protection bracket 40. Specifically, the end top plate 41 covers the end fixing portion 53. The two island welding tabs 55 are located on either side of the end fixing portion 53 and extend longitudinally out of the socket body 10.

[0034] At the same time, the bottom edge of the socket outer shielding portion 31 and the island soldering tab 55 are soldered to the same solder pad on the circuit board. Specifically, the end outer plate 42 is provided with an end soldering tab 421 located at the bottom edge. The side outer plate 45 does not extend beyond the lateral outer wall surface of the side portion 12 and is provided with a side soldering tab 451 extending laterally outward from the bottom edge. The side soldering tab 451 is connected to the end soldering tab 421, and the end soldering tab 421 and the island soldering tab 55 are soldered to the same solder pad on the circuit board.

[0035] Therefore, when the plug connector 200 is mated to the socket connector 100, the end protection bracket 40 and the island protection bracket 50 are in contact with the plug protection bracket 80 of the plug connector 200 at the same time, and the end protection bracket 40 and the island protection bracket 50 are welded as a whole, thereby achieving overall conduction among the end protection bracket 40, the island protection bracket 50 and the plug protection bracket 80, thereby improving the flow capacity by parallel shunting, that is, achieving high-strength protection and high flow capacity of the socket connector 100 in a smaller space.

[0036] See also Figures 6 to 8 As shown, the plug connector 200 includes a longitudinally elongated plug body 60, plug terminals 70 secured to the plug body 60, and plug protection brackets 80 located at both longitudinal ends of the plug body 60. The plug body 60 has two longitudinally extending side walls 61 and two end walls 62 connected to the side walls 61. The plug terminals 70 are secured to the side walls 61, and the plug protection brackets 80 are secured to the end walls 62.

[0037] The plug protection bracket 80 comprises an upwardly drawn outer shielding portion 801 and an inner shielding portion 802 drawn downwardly from the top surface of the outer shielding portion 801. The outer shielding portion 801 covers the outer surfaces of the side walls 61 and end walls 62, while the inner shielding portion 802 covers the inner surfaces of the side walls 61 and end walls 62. This enhances the strength of the plug body 60 and prevents damage to the plug body 60 during insertion and removal of the plug connector 200. Furthermore, the integral draw-through molding of the plug protection bracket 80 provides greater guiding strength and enhanced resistance to misalignment and deformation.

[0038] Specifically, the plug outer shielding portion 801 comprises a top shielding portion 81 that covers the end wall 62 and at least a portion of the side walls 61; an outer wall shielding portion 82 that bends downwardly from the longitudinal outer side of the top shielding portion 81; and side shielding portions 83 that bend downwardly from both lateral sides of the top shielding portion 81. The outer wall shielding portion 82 covers the longitudinal outer wall surface of the end wall 62, and the side shielding portions 83 at least partially cover the lateral outer wall surface of the side walls 61 and are connected to the outer wall shielding portion 82. Thus, the top shielding portion 81, the side shielding portions 83, and the outer wall shielding portion 82 form a seamless connection, and the plug outer shielding portion 801 enhances overall strength, thereby preventing scratches on the plug body 60.

[0039] The side walls 61 and the end walls 62 are arranged to form a plug slot 63, and the inner shielding portion 802 of the plug is provided with an inner wall shielding portion 84 drawn downward from the inner side of the top surface shielding portion 81 and a bottom wall shielding portion 85 connected to the bottom edge of the inner wall shielding portion 84. The inner wall shielding portion 84 is U-shaped and covers the inner wall surface of the end wall 62 and part of the side wall 61. The bottom wall shielding portion 85 covers the bottom of the plug slot 63 and forms a seamless connection with the inner wall shielding portion 84. Therefore, the inner shielding portion 802 of the plug has a higher guiding strength while enhancing the anti-dislocation deformation ability.

[0040] Combine Figure 9 and Figure 10 As shown, when the receptacle connector 100 and plug connector 200 are mated, the plug outer shield 801 contacts the receptacle inner shield 32, and the plug inner shield 802 contacts the island protection bracket 50. Therefore, both the receptacle protection bracket 30 and the plug protection bracket 80 utilize a fully retractable structure, providing high overall strength and preventing deformation during misalignment, thereby preventing the risk of short circuits.

[0041] Specifically, when the receptacle connector 100 is mated with the plug connector 200, between the plug protection bracket 80 and the end protection bracket 40: the outer wall shielding portion 82 of the plug protection bracket 80 contacts the end inner plate portion 43 of the end protection bracket 40, and / or the side shielding portion 83 of the plug protection bracket 80 contacts the side inner plate portion 46 of the end protection bracket 40. Between the plug protection bracket 80 and the island protection bracket 50: the top surface shielding portion 81 of the plug protection bracket 80 contacts the bottom plate portion 51 of the island protection bracket 50, the plug inner shielding portion 802 of the plug protection bracket 80 covers the island shielding portion 52, and the bottom wall shielding portion 85 of the plug inner shielding portion 802 contacts the top of the island shielding portion 52; at the same time, the clamping arm 54 of the island protection bracket 50 abuts against the side shielding portion 83 of the plug protection bracket 80. Therefore, the flow capacity is improved by parallel shunting, that is, high-strength protection and high flow capacity of the board-to-board connector are achieved in a smaller space.

[0042] In the present invention, the end protection bracket 40 is provided with a socket inner shielding portion 32 that is drawn downward and formed. The socket inner shielding portion 32 covers the inner wall surfaces of the side portion 12 and the end portion 13. The plug protection bracket 80 is provided with a plug outer shielding portion 801 that is drawn upward and formed, and a plug inner shielding portion 802 that is drawn downward from the top surface of the plug outer shielding portion 801. The plug outer shielding portion 801 covers the outer wall surfaces of the side wall 61 and the end wall 62, and the plug inner shielding portion 802 covers the inner wall surfaces of the side wall 61 and the end wall 62. When the socket connector 100 and the plug connector 200 are plugged together, the plug outer shielding portion 801 contacts the socket inner shielding portion 32, and the plug inner shielding portion 802 contacts the island protection bracket 50. The plug protection bracket 80 is integrally retractable, providing greater guiding strength and enhanced resistance to deformation due to misalignment. The end protection bracket 40 is also integrally retractable, enhancing overall strength, preventing scratches on the socket body 10 and enhancing resistance to deformation due to misalignment. Therefore, both the socket protection bracket 30 and the plug protection bracket 80 utilize a fully retractable structure, resulting in high overall strength and less deformation during misalignment, thus preventing the risk of short circuits.

[0043] In summary, the above are merely preferred embodiments of the present invention and should not be used to limit the scope of the present invention. That is, any simple equivalent changes and modifications made according to the claims and description of the present invention should still fall within the scope of the present invention patent.
