[0033] The embodiment of the present application is described in detail below, which is implemented on the premise of the technical scheme of the present application, and gives detailed implementation modes and specific operation processes, but the protection scope of the present application is not limited to the following embodiment.
[0034] The present application provides a connector structure and a vehicle switch device including the connector structure, wherein the angle and position of the plug-in opening can be adjusted.
[0035] Figure 2 is a schematic view of the connector structure according to the embodiment of the present application. Figure 3 is a structural schematic view of a vehicle switch device including the connector structure according to the embodiment of the present application. In combination with Figure 2 and Figure 3 , the connector structure according to the embodiment of the present application includes a connector seating plate 100 and a connector body 200. The connector body 200 includes a housing 210, and the housing 210 forms a plug-in opening 211. The connector body 200 includes a swing center shaft part 220 connected with the connector seating plate 100, and the connector body 200 can swing around the swing center shaft part 220 and / or move along a direction orthogonal to the axial direction of the swing center shaft part 220, so that the angle and / or position of the plug-in opening 211 can be adjusted.
[0036] In the following, the direction parallel to the axial direction of the swing center shaft part 220 is referred to as the X direction, and thus the direction orthogonal to the axial direction of the swing center shaft part 200 is referred to as the Y direction. In addition, the up-down direction orthogonal to the X direction and the Y direction is referred to as the Z direction, wherein "+Z" is close to the upper part of the vehicle, and "-Z" is close to the lower part of the vehicle.
[0037] Figures 4A-4C respectively show the state schematic view of the connector body moving on the connector seating plate. Figures 5A-5C show the state schematic view of the connector body swinging on the connector seating plate.
[0038] In combination with Figures 4A-4C, the operator can move the connector body 200 along the Y direction. In combination Figures 4A-4C with Figure 5B , in the case where the operator does not swing the connector body 200, the plug-in opening 211 is along the -Z direction. As shown in Figure 5A , when the operator swings the connector body 200 along the first rotation direction (which is the clockwise direction in Figure 5A ) by 45°, the plug-in opening 211 has a counterclockwise angle of 45° with the -Z direction. As shown in Figure 5C , when the operator swings the connector body 200 along the second rotation direction (which is the counterclockwise direction in Figure 5A ) by 45°, the plug-in opening 211 has a clockwise angle of 45° with the -Z direction.
[0039] Figure 6A and Figure 6B are use diagrams of the connector structure according to the embodiments of the present application. As shown in Figure 6A , the operator moves the connector body 200 to the first end (which is the right end in Figure 6A ) of the connector mounting plate 100 and swings it along the second rotation direction (which is the counterclockwise direction in Figure 6A ) by 45°, so that the external cable 14 from the first end can be inserted into the connector body 200 by the plug-in opening 211. As shown in Figure 6B , the operator moves the connector body 200 to the second end (which is the left end in Figure 6B ) of the connector mounting plate 100 and swings it along the first rotation direction (which is the clockwise direction in Figure 6B ) by 45°, so that the external cable 14 from the second end can be inserted into the connector body 200 by the plug-in opening 211.
[0040] However, if the connector body 200 cannot be kept in the state shown in Figure 6A or Figure 6B , after the operator releases the hand, then the connector body 200 will automatically swing or move back to the original position, for example, the plug-in opening 211 originally having an angle of 45° with the -Z direction will automatically swing to the -Z direction, which will cause the external cable 14 to be in an over-tensioned state. The long-term existence of tension on the external cable 14 can cause cable damage, cable disconnection, and other adverse consequences. Therefore, it is necessary to enable the connector body 200 to remain in the state before the operator releases the hand after the operator releases the hand, that is, to enable the plug-in opening 211 to remain in the state after the angle and / or position is adjusted.
[0041] In the following, the connector structure according to the exemplary embodiments of the present application is described in detail.
[0042] In an exemplary embodiment, the connector seating plate 100 forms a first support plate 110 and a second support plate 120 each extending in the Y direction, which are disposed apart from each other. The swing center shaft portion 220 includes a first swing center shaft portion 221 and a second swing center shaft portion 222 connected to both sides of the housing 210. Preferably, the first swing center shaft portion 221 and the second swing center shaft portion 222 are coaxially disposed. The end of the first swing center shaft portion 221 is disposed on the first support plate 110, and the end of the second swing center shaft portion 222 is disposed on the second support plate 120. In this case, the connector body 200 can move in the Y direction and / or swing about the swing center shaft portion 220, but cannot remain in the state before the hand is released.
[0043] To this end, each of the first support plate 110 and the second support plate 120 can form a guide groove 130 extending in the Y direction, a plurality of limit grooves 140 are formed at intervals on the guide groove 130, and the guide groove 130 and each of the limit grooves 140 are in communication with each other. The guide groove 130 can be a slot having a small width and a small depth of recess, which serves to guide when an operator operates the connector body 200.
[0044] The outer circumferential surface of each of the first swing center shaft portion 221 and the second swing center shaft portion 222 can form a plurality of protrusions 223. The protrusions 223 can be positioned on the guide groove 130 and can be inserted into the limit grooves 140.
[0045] Specifically, a corresponding number of protrusions can be formed at intervals of an angle a. For example, eight protrusions are formed at intervals of 45°. Figure 7A A schematic view of a connector body according to an exemplary embodiment of the present application, Figure 7B is Figure 7A a side view of the first swing center shaft portion as viewed from the end of the first swing center shaft portion. As an example, the cross section of the swing center shaft portion 220 is circular, and the protrusions 223 are spherical bumps, but the present application is not limited thereto. Accordingly, the limit grooves 140 are spherical recesses having a shape matching the protrusions 223, and a depth of recess greater than that of the guide groove 130.
[0046] As Figure 7B shown, the outer circumferential surface of the first swing center shaft portion 221 forms first to eighth protrusions 223a to 223h at intervals of 45° in the circumferential direction.
[0047] In a case where the operator does not swing the connector body 200, i.e., the plug-in / out opening 211 is in the -Z direction, the first protrusion 223a is positioned on the guide groove 130, and under the moving operation of the operator, the first protrusion 223a can move along the guide groove 130.
[0048] For example, when the operator swings the connector body 200 by 45° in the first rotational direction, i.e., the plug-in opening 211 has a counterclockwise included angle of 45° with the -Z direction, the second protruding portion 223b is positioned on the guide groove 130, and under the moving operation of the operator, the second protruding portion 223b can also move along the guide groove 130.
[0049] Similarly, each protruding portion 223 (for example, each of the first protruding portion 223a to the eighth protruding portion 223h) can be positioned on the guide groove 130 and move along the guide groove 130, i.e., move in the Y direction, by swinging of the connector body 200.
[0050] When the operator needs to keep the adjusted state of the plug-in opening 211, the operator can insert the corresponding protruding portion 223 into the limiting groove 140 at the desired position. For example, in order to keep the connector body in the state shown in Figure 6B , the operator can move the connector body 200 to the second end of the connector mounting plate 100 and swing the connector body 200 by 45° in the first rotational direction, so that the second protruding portion 223b is positioned on the guide groove 130, and then insert the second protruding portion 223b into the limiting groove 140 at the second end of the guide groove 130. Through the mutual cooperation between the second protruding portion 223b and the limiting groove 140 at the second end of the guide groove 130, the connector body 200 and the plug-in opening 211 can be kept in the state shown in Figure 6B . Finally, the operator can insert the external cable 14 into the connector body 200 from the plug-in opening 211. Since the plug-in opening 211 is kept in the state shown in Figure 6B , it will not be moved or swung again, so the external cable 14 can be in a natural state.
[0051] When the operator takes out the second protruding portion 223b from the corresponding limiting groove 140, the keeping state of the plug-in opening 211 can be released, so that the connector body 200 can be freely moved or swung.
[0052] In combination with Figure 7A and Figure 7B , the connector body 200 can be swung in a 360° direction with the swinging center axis portion 220 as the center. However, in combination with Figure 6A and Figure 6B , when the plug-in opening 211 is towards the Y direction or towards the +Z direction, the external cable 14 cannot be inserted into the connector body 200 from the plug-in opening 211. In this case, the effective swinging range of the connector body 200 is only 90°, i.e., from the state shown in Figure 6A to the state shown in Figure 6BThe interval of the protrusions 223 can be set smaller to make the effective swing range of the connector body 200 larger. For example, twelve protrusions can be formed at an interval of 30°, and accordingly, the effective swing range of the connector body 200 can reach 120°.
[0053] Returning to Figure 2 According to a preferred embodiment of the present application, the connector mounting plate 100 can further form a first side plate 151 and a second side plate 152, and a first top plate 161 and a second top plate 162. The first side plate 151 and the second side plate 152 vertically extend upward from the bottom surfaces of the first support plate 110 and the second support plate 120, respectively. The first top plate 161 and the second top plate 162 extend from the top ends of the first side plate 151 and the second side plate 152, respectively, in directions opposite to each other and parallel to the first support plate 110 and the second support plate 120. Among them, the first support plate 110, the first side plate 151 and the first top plate 161 form a first sliding groove 171 open at the end along the X direction towards the first swing center axis part 221, and the second support plate 120, the second side plate 152 and the second top plate 162 form a second sliding groove 172 open at the end along the X direction towards the second swing center axis part 222.
[0054] Figure 8 is a structural schematic view of the first sliding groove and the second sliding groove according to the embodiment of the present application. As Figure 8 shown, the end of the first swing center axis part 221 is arranged in the first sliding groove 171, and the end of the second swing center axis part 222 is arranged in the second sliding groove 172.
[0055] That is, the ends of the swing center axes 221, 222 are arranged in the sliding grooves 171, 172 instead of being placed on the two support plates 110, 120 only. The sliding grooves 171, 172 can limit the position of the ends of the swing center axes 221, 222, and can make the movement or swing process of the connector body 200 more stable when the operator manually operates the connector body 200 to move or swing.
[0056] Therefore, preferably, the distance between the first top plate 161 and the first support plate 110 (or the distance between the second top plate 162 and the second support plate 120) can be equal to or slightly greater than the diameter of the end of the swing center axis part 220. Since the outer circumferential surface of the swing center axis part 200 also has protrusions 223, the first top plate 161 and the second top plate 162 can extend along the X direction to at most abut the protrusions 223, so that the connector structure is more compact. As Figure 3 shown, the lengths of the first top plate 161 and the second top plate 162 extending along the X direction are smaller than the lengths of the first support plate 110 and the second support plate 120 extending along the X direction.
[0057] Figure 9 is a structural exploded view of a vehicle switch device including the connector structure according to an embodiment of the present application. As Figure 9 indicated, the vehicle switch device includes a switch assembly 300, a housing 400, a circuit board 500, a base 600, and a connector structure.
[0058] Taking a vehicle switch device provided at an armrest of a driver side door trim of a vehicle as an example, the switch assembly 300 can include a left front window glass lift switch, a right front window glass lift switch, a left rear window glass lift switch, a right rear window glass lift switch, an outside rearview mirror direction adjustment switch, an outside rearview mirror left-right selection switch, and an outside rearview mirror manual folding switch, etc.
[0059] The housing 400 and the base 600 can be connected to each other and form an open accommodating space. Specifically, in combination Figure 3 and Figure 9 , a side wall of the housing 400 is provided with a plurality of mounting holes 410, and a side wall of the base 600 is provided with corresponding mounting blocks 610. By inserting the mounting blocks 610 into the mounting holes 410, the housing 400 and the base 600 can be connected to each other.
[0060] The switch assembly 300 and the circuit board 500 can be arranged in the accommodating space, and the circuit board 500 is arranged below the switch assembly 300. Therefore, for example, in response to the driver pressing the left front window glass lift switch, the left front window glass lift switch presses a contact point on the circuit board 500, a circuit associated with the contact point on the circuit board 500 is turned on, so that the circuit board 500 can send a control signal to make the left front window glass rise or fall.
[0061] The connector structure included in the vehicle switch device shown in Figure 9 is a connector structure according to an exemplary embodiment of the present application shown in Figure 2 . Wherein, the connector placement plate 100 is connected below the base 600. The connector placement plate 100 can be integrally formed with the base 600, or can be separately formed. Figure 10 is a structural schematic view of a connector placement plate and a base according to an embodiment of the present application. As Figure 10 indicated, the first side plate 151 and the second side plate 152 included in the connector placement plate 100 can vertically extend upward from the bottom surface of the first support plate 110 and the second support plate 120 to be connected with the side wall of the base 600.
[0062] The connector body 200 includes a housing 210 and connector terminals (not shown) disposed inside the housing 210. On one hand, the terminals 15 of the external cable 14 are inserted into the connector terminals to be electrically connected with the connector terminals, and on the other hand, the connector terminals are electrically connected with the circuit board 500, so that the control signals generated by the circuit board can be transmitted to the vehicle-mounted device or the like. To this end, as shown in Figure 9 the connector body 200 further includes an internal cable 230 disposed to pass through the base 600 and the housing 210 of the connector body, one end of the internal cable 230 is electrically connected with the circuit board 500, and the other end of the internal cable 230 is electrically connected with the connector terminals. Accordingly, the housing 210 of the connector body 200 forms a connection opening 212 for the internal cable 230 to pass through. Figure 11 is a bottom view of the connector placement plate and the base according to the embodiment of the present application. As shown in Figure 11 the base 600 forms a through hole 620 for the internal cable 230 to pass through.
[0063] In a preferred embodiment, the internal cable 230 is provided as a stretchable ribbon cable to ensure that the internal cable 230 does not affect the movement and / or swing of the connector body 200 on the connector placement plate 100. Since the ribbon cable has a certain width, the length of the connection opening 212 extending in the X direction matches the width of the ribbon cable. Similarly, the length of the through hole 620 extending in the X direction matches the width of the ribbon cable.
[0064] In a more preferred embodiment, when the connector body 200 moves and / or swings on the connector placement plate 100, the end of the internal cable 230 electrically connected with the connector terminals also moves and / or swings together. In order to avoid the internal cable 230 being in an over-tensioned state due to the edge friction of the through hole 620 of the base 600, the through hole 620 should also have a preset length in the Y direction. Figure 11 is a structural schematic view of another viewing angle of the connector placement plate and the base integrally formed according to the embodiment of the present application. As shown in Figure 11 the length of the through hole 620 extending in the Y direction can be less than or equal to the length of the first support plate 110 or the second support plate 120 extending in the Y direction.
[0065] The connector structure according to the embodiment of the present application and the vehicle switch device including the same, the angle and / or position of the plug-in opening 211 can be adjusted, so that the external cable 14 is more easily inserted into the connector structure from the plug-in opening 211. Even when the position of the vehicle switch is adjusted according to the requirements of the vehicle arrangement, as long as the external cable 14 is inserted into the connector structure by adjusting the plug-in opening 211, the design time and cost can be reduced.
[0066] Further, the plug-in opening 211 can be maintained in a state in which the angle and / or position is adjusted, thereby avoiding the external cable 14 from being continuously in an over-tensioned state.
[0067] The various embodiments of the present application are not an exhaustive list of all possible combinations, but are intended to describe representative aspects of the present application, and the content described in the various embodiments can be applied independently or in combination of two or more.
