[0031] Please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 The circuit board 100 provided by the embodiments of the present application comprises a circuit board body 101 and a female seat 102, the circuit board body 101 is provided with a through hole 1011, the female seat 102 is arranged on the circuit board body 101, the female seat 102 is provided with a plug hole 1021, and the plug hole 1021 of the female seat 102 is arranged correspondingly with the through hole 1011 of the circuit board body 101. When the female seat 102 is used to be plugged with the male seat 201, the pin 2011 of the male seat 201 is inserted into the plug hole 1021 through the through hole 1011. Through the circuit board 100, when the male seat 201 is plugged on the female seat 102, the functional board 202 or the electronic component connected on the male seat 201 can expand the function of the circuit board body 101, and when the function of the circuit board body 101 does not need to be expanded, the male seat 201 can be separated from the female seat 102, that is, by arranging the female seat 102 on the circuit board body 101, the female seat 102 is used to be pluggably connected with the male seat 201, so that the flexible expansion and reduction of the function of the circuit board body 101 can be realized to adapt to different electronic products and improve the application scene of the circuit board 100.

[0032] In addition, the plug hole 1021 of the female seat 102 is actually arranged to face the circuit board body 101, so that when the male seat 201 is separated from the female seat 102, the acting force of the male seat 201 on the female seat 102 is transmitted from the female seat 102 to the circuit board body 101, and the female seat 102 is blocked by the circuit board body 101, so that the female seat 102 is not easy to be separated from the circuit board body 101, the stability of plugging the male seat 201 with the female seat 102 can be improved, and the use reliability and durability of the circuit board 100 can be improved.

[0033] It needs to be further explained that by arranging the through hole 1011 on the circuit board body 101, the pin 2011 on the male seat 201 can be inserted from the bottom of the female seat 102, so that the components on the circuit board 100 can be arranged to have the same mounting surface as the female seat 102, so that the layout optimization of the components on the circuit board can be realized, and the production process is simplified. Especially, the plug-in components can be arranged on the same mounting surface as the female seat 102, so as to be welded on the circuit board 100.

[0034] It is worth mentioning that in some embodiments, the female seat 102 is provided with a plurality of the insertion holes 1021, and the circuit board body 101 is provided with a plurality of the through holes 1011, and one insertion hole 1021 corresponds to one through hole 1011. Through this arrangement, on the one hand, the connection stability and reliability of the female seat 102 and the male seat 201 can be improved when they are plugged together, and on the other hand, through the arrangement of a plurality of the insertion holes 1021, the connection of a plurality of the male seats 201 and the female seat 102 can be realized, thereby further expanding the function of the circuit board body 101. For example, three through holes 1011 can be arranged on one circuit board body 101, and three groups of insertion holes 1021 are arranged on the corresponding female seat 102, and the number of each group of insertion holes 1021 is multiple, then three different male seats 201 can be connected at the same time, and different functional electronic components or functional boards 202 can be connected on each male seat 201, thereby greatly expanding the function of the circuit board body 101.

[0035] It is worth mentioning that in some embodiments, in order to further improve the stability and reliability of the circuit board 100, in some embodiments, a metal bushing (not shown in the figure) is arranged around the insertion hole 1021 of the female seat 102, which can provide better electrical conductivity and ensure the stability of signal transmission between the electronic components or functional boards 202 connected on the male seat 201 and the circuit board body 101.

[0036] It is worth mentioning that in some embodiments, the cross sections of a plurality of the insertion holes 1021 of the female seat 102 can be designed to have different shapes and sizes, such as polygons, ovals, etc., so that the female seat 102 can be prevented from being mistaken when being plugged with the male seat 201, and the risk of plugging error is reduced. In addition, compared with the insertion hole 1021 with a single shape and size, through the insertion hole 1021 with different shapes and sizes, on the one hand, the connection stability of the female seat 102 and the male seat 201 can be improved when they are plugged together, and on the other hand, through this design, the resistance when the male seat 201 is separated from the female seat 102 is large, which is transmitted to the circuit board body 101 through the female seat 102, and the female seat 102 is blocked by the circuit board body 101, so that the female seat 102 is less likely to be separated from the circuit board body 101, and the plugging stability of the male seat 201 and the female seat 102 can be further improved, thereby the use reliability and durability of the circuit board 100 can be further improved.

[0037] It can be understood that the direction from the female seat 102 to the circuit board body 101 is the first direction D1, the second direction D2 is perpendicular to the first direction D1, and the second direction D2 is any direction perpendicular to the first direction D1. The drawing only shows one possible way of the second direction D2. The width of the through hole 1011 along the second direction D2 is greater than the width of the pin 2011 on the male seat 201 along the second direction D2, so that the pin 2011 of the male seat 201 does not rub against the edge of the through hole 1011 during the insertion and extraction of the jack 1021, thereby reducing the wear and damage of the pin 2011. In addition, this design of the through hole 1011 can also absorb and disperse the stress generated by the insertion and extraction of the male seat 201 to some extent, further improving the stability and durability of the connection.

[0038] In some embodiments, the female seat 102 is welded to the circuit board body 101. Specifically, the female seat 102 is provided with a connecting piece 103, and the connecting piece 103 is connected to the circuit board body 101 by reflow soldering, thereby realizing the connection between the female seat 102 and the circuit board body 101.

[0039] It is worth noting that in some embodiments, the female seat 102 is recessed to form a through slot 1022 in the direction away from the circuit board body 101, the jack 1021 is arranged in the through slot 1022, one end of the connecting piece 103 is connected to the bottom of the through slot 1022, and the other end of the connecting piece 103 is bent and arranged after extending out of the slot opening of the through slot 1022. Through this arrangement, heat dissipation is facilitated, and the thermal stability of the circuit board 100 during use is improved.

[0040] It is worth noting that in some embodiments, the bottom of the female seat 102 is arranged on the circuit board body 101, the bottom of the female seat 102 is provided with a positioning piece 104, and the circuit board body 101 is provided with a positioning hole 1012, which is matched with the positioning piece 104.

[0041] It is worth noting that when the female seat 102 is provided with the through slot 1022, the positioning piece 104 is located at the bottom of the through slot 1022, so that not only the heat dissipation is facilitated, but also the limited size of the female seat 102 is fully utilized, and the unnecessary size is reduced.

[0042] It is worth mentioning that in some embodiments, the circuit board 100 further comprises an electronic component group 105, the circuit board body 101 has a first surface 1013, the electronic component group 105 is arranged on the first surface 1013, and the female seat 102 is arranged on the first surface 1013, that is, the female seat 102 and the electronic component group 105 are arranged on the same surface of the circuit board body 101, so that the assembly of the female seat 102, the electronic component group 105 and the circuit board body 101 can be saved.

[0043] In some embodiments, the electronic component group 105 comprises a patch type electronic component group 1051 and a plug-in type electronic component group 1052, wherein at least one plug-in type electronic component in the plug-in type electronic component group 1052 has a height H1 in the first direction D1 higher than the height H2 of the female seat 102, and the first direction D1 is perpendicular to the first surface 1013. Even if there is a plug-in type electronic component with a height in the first direction D1 higher than the height of the female seat 102, the assembly of the female seat 102, the electronic component group 105 and the circuit board body 101 is simple, and only one reflow soldering is needed to realize the connection of the female seat 102, the patch type electronic component group 1051 and the circuit board body 101, and one wave soldering is needed to realize the connection of the plug-in type electronic component group 1052 and the circuit board body 101. In the wave soldering process, since the patch type electronic component group 1051 and the plug-in type electronic component group 1052 are arranged on the same surface of the circuit board 100, there is no need to make special clamps to separate the patch type electronic component group 1051, simplify the wave soldering process, and also no need to use manual welding. The overall assembly process of the circuit board 100 is simple, and the assembly efficiency is high.

[0044] In the embodiments of the present application, through the circuit board 100, when the female seat 102 is inserted with the male seat 201, the functional board 202 or the electronic component connected on the male seat 201 can expand the function of the circuit board body 101.

In addition, when the male seat 201 is separated from the female seat 102, the force of the male seat 201 on the female seat 102 is transmitted from the female seat 102 to the circuit board body 101, and the female seat 102 is blocked by the circuit board body 101, so that the female seat 102 is not easy to separate from the circuit board body 101, the stability of plugging of the male seat 201 and the female seat 102 can be improved, and the use reliability and durability of the circuit board 100 can be improved.
