DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0022] The utility model will be further described in detail below in combination with the specific embodiment and the drawing.
[0023] The embodiment, refer to Figures 1-7 The specific implementation of a double-locking type FPC connector includes a base 1, a rotatable rotating plate 2 installed on the base 1, a conductive terminal 3 and a ground terminal 4 provided in the base 1 and cooperating with the rotating plate 2, the rotating plate 2, the base 1 and the conductive terminal 3 cooperate to tightly press the circuit board in the base 1, so that the circuit board, the conductive terminal 3 and the ground terminal 4 cooperate to achieve the connection effect. The two sides of the rotating plate 2 are provided with a slidable locking block 6 through a reset spring 5, the two sides of the base 1 are provided with a locking groove 1A cooperating with the locking block 6, one side of the locking block 6 is fixedly provided with a plug plate 7, the plug plate 7 is synchronously displaced with the sliding of the locking block 6, and the two sides of the base 1 are provided with a plug groove 1B cooperating with the plug plate 7. Through the reset spring 5, the locking block 6 and the plug plate 7 can reciprocate on the rotating plate 2, respectively cooperate with the locking groove 1A and the plug groove 1B, realize the effect of double locking, and make the rotating plate 2 be firmly fixed on the base 1. The double locking makes the rotating plate 2 more stable, and avoids affecting the stability of the entire connector when one of the locking block 6 or the plug plate 7 is worn or broken.
[0024] Moreover, the two sides of the locking block 6 are provided with a guide groove 6A, and the rotating plate 2 is provided with a guide block 2A corresponding to the guide groove 6A. Through the cooperation of the guide groove 6A and the guide block 2A, the locking block 6 can smoothly slide in the rotating plate 2, so that the sliding of the locking block 6 is more smooth, thereby ensuring the stability and reliability of the locking block 6 in the operation process. The locking block 6 and the plug plate 7 are respectively provided with a fixed groove 6B and a fixed block 7A cooperating with each other. The rotating plate 2 is provided with a limiting groove 2B cooperating with the fixed block 7A. The plug plate 7 is installed on the locking block 6 through the fixed block 7A. The fixed groove 6B and the fixed block 7A adopt interference fit, so that the fixed block 7A will not be easily loosened after being inserted into the fixed groove 6B. The limiting groove 2B limits the sliding distance of the locking block 6 and the plug plate 7, thereby ensuring that the locking block 6 and the plug plate 7 will not exceed the predetermined range in the operation process.
[0025] In addition, one end of the locking block 6 is provided with a guide structure 6C. Through the guide structure 6C, when the locking block 6 comes into contact with the base 1, the plug plate 7 can be driven to slide along the predetermined path, thereby avoiding excessive extrusion to cause deformation or even breakage of the locking block 6 or the plug plate 7. Moreover, after reaching the specified position, through the reset action of the reset spring 5, the locking block 6 and the plug plate 7 cooperate with the locking groove 1A and the plug groove 1B respectively, tightly fix the rotating plate 2, and ensure the stability and reliability of the connector.
[0026] In addition, one end of the locking block 6 is provided with an installation pin 6D cooperating with the reset spring 5. The installation pin 6D avoids displacement of the reset spring 5 in the working process, and ensures that the reset spring 5 can accurately act on the locking block 6.
[0027] One side of the plug-in plate 7 is provided with a groove 7B, and the groove 7B is provided with an anti-skid line 7C. Through the groove 7B, the user can conveniently push the plug-in plate 7 to slide, and through the cooperation of the fixed groove 6B and the fixed block 7A, the lock block 6 is driven to displace. The user can easily perform the unlocking operation. The design of the anti-skid line 7C increases the hand feeling of the user during operation, so that the plug-in plate 7 is more stable during sliding, and accidental slipping caused by too fast sliding or uneven force is avoided.
[0028] The utility model discloses the beneficial effect has: through reset spring 5, make lock block 6 and plug-in plate 7 can reciprocate on the slide of rotation pressure plate 2, and through the cooperation of lock slot 1A and plug slot 1B with lock block 6 and plug-in plate 7 respectively, form the effect of double locking rotation pressure plate 2, to ensure the stability and reliability of connection. When one of lock block 6 or plug-in plate 7 cannot normally use, rotation pressure plate 2 can still keep the locking state, and lock tightly circuit board, thereby improve the service life and security of connector.
