Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] Embodiments of the present application relate to the technical field of computing, and particularly relate to a computing device. BACKGROUND

[0002] With the development of technology, the use of computing devices is gradually widespread. Generally, a computing device includes a power module, a power connector, and a circuit board, the power module is electrically connected with the circuit board through the power connector, so as to realize the power supply of the circuit board by the power module. However, the thickness variation of the circuit board is easy to affect the mutual matching between the power module and the power connector on the circuit board. CONTENT OF THE UTILITY MODEL

[0003] Embodiments of the present application disclose a computing device, which can avoid the influence of mutual matching between the power module and the power connector, is convenient to install, has low cost, and shortens the product manufacturing cycle.

[0004] Embodiments of the present application provide a computing device, comprising: a circuit board; a power module comprising a plug-in part; a power connector disposed on the circuit board and electrically connected with the circuit board, the power connector comprising a connector body and a pad, the connector body being located on a side of the pad away from the circuit board; the connector body has a first face and a second face adjacent to each other, the pad being detachably connected to the second face of the connector body, the first face being provided with a connection port, the connection port being oppositely disposed with the plug-in part and used for electrically connecting with the plug-in part; wherein the vertical distance between the connection port and the surface of the circuit board away from the power connector is equal to the vertical distance between the plug-in part and the surface of the circuit board away from the power connector.

[0005] In the above computing device, by arranging the pad between the connector body and the circuit board, the vertical distance between the connection port and the surface of the circuit board away from the power connector depends on the thicknesses of the pad and the circuit board, in the case that the position of the power module is not adjusted, the pad can be used to ensure that the connection port and the plug-in part are at the same height relative to the surface of the circuit board away from the power connector and are not affected by the thickness variation of the circuit board, so as to realize the mutual matching of the power module and the power connector, and realize the plug-in. The scheme of the present application does not need to change other components in the computing device, reduces the investment cost, and shortens the product manufacturing cycle.

[0006] In some implementations, in the case that the thickness of the circuit board is a first thickness, the thickness of the pad protruding from the second face is a second thickness, and the sum of the first thickness and the second thickness is a fixed value.

[0007] Thus, in the case that the sum of the first thickness and the second thickness is a fixed value, the vertical distance between the connecting port and the surface of the circuit board away from the power connector can also be kept as a fixed value. In the case that the thickness of the circuit board is large, by using the spacer with a small second thickness, the vertical distance between the connecting port and the surface of the circuit board away from the power connector can be equal to the vertical distance between the plug-in part and the surface of the circuit board away from the power connector, and the power module and the power connector can be matched. Without changing other components in the computing device, the investment cost is reduced, and the product production cycle is shortened.

[0008] In some implementations, the second face of the connector body is provided with a receiving groove; the spacer includes a spacer body and a fixing part connected with each other, and the fixing part is slidably connected with the receiving groove to make the spacer detachably connected with the connector body. Through the sliding fit between the fixing part and the receiving groove, the detachable connection between the spacer and the connector body can be facilitated, and the replacement and installation of the spacer can be facilitated.

[0009] In some implementations, the connector body further includes a connecting terminal arranged at the second face and used for electrically connecting with the circuit board; and the thickness of the spacer body is smaller than the length by which the connecting terminal protrudes from the second face. In this way, the length margin of the connecting terminal for electrically connecting with the circuit board can be left, and the connection between the power connector and the circuit board can be facilitated.

[0010] In some implementations, one end of the receiving groove close to the first face penetrates the first face to form a first opening to allow the fixing part to slide into the receiving groove from the first opening, and the shape of the first opening matches the cross-sectional shape of the fixing part, wherein the cross section is the section of the fixing part parallel to the first face; and the spacer body protrudes relative to the second face. In this way, the fixing part of the spacer can be accommodated in the receiving groove, and the spacer body protrudes relative to the second face of the connector body, so that the structural stability of the entire power connector can be improved.

[0011] In some implementations, the spacer body has a first end close to the first face, and the fixing part has a second end close to the first face, and the second end is away from the first opening relative to the first end. In this way, the fixing part cooperates with the spacer body to form an avoiding space close to the first opening, which can be used for subsequent limiting.

[0012] In some implementations, the power connector further includes an elastic limiting piece arranged at the groove wall of the receiving groove and close to the first opening; and the elastic limiting piece is used for limiting the second end of the fixing part to limit the fixing part in the receiving groove. In this way, by arranging the elastic limiting piece, the elastic limiting piece can limit the second end of the fixing part in the receiving groove due to the elastic restoring force of the elastic limiting piece when the elastic limiting piece is not forced.

[0013] In some implementations, the power connector further includes a first magnetic limiting member disposed on a slot wall of the receiving slot; the fixing portion includes a second magnetic limiting member, the first magnetic limiting member being capable of contacting the second magnetic limiting member to limit the fixing portion in the receiving slot. In this way, the first magnetic limiting member and the second magnetic limiting member are arranged to limit the fixing portion due to magnetic attraction.

[0014] In some implementations, the fixing portion includes a first portion connected to the pad body and a second portion located on a side of the first portion away from the pad body; a cross-sectional dimension of the first portion parallel to the first face is smaller than a cross-sectional dimension of the second portion parallel to the first face. In this way, the cross-sectional dimension of the second portion parallel to the first face is larger than the cross-sectional dimension of the first portion parallel to the first face, so that the fixing portion and the receiving slot are more stable, which is conducive to preventing the pad from falling out and improving the structural stability of the entire power connector.

[0015] In some implementations, the elastic limiting member includes one or more of an elastic plastic member, an elastic silica gel member, an elastic rubber member, a spring, or a metal spring. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF DRAWINGS

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0029] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, not all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative labor fall within the scope of protection of the present application. In the description of the embodiments of the present application, unless otherwise specified, " / " represents the meaning of or, for example, A / B can represent A or B; the "and / or" in the text only describes the association relationship of the associated objects, which means that there can be three relationships, for example, A and / or B, which means that there are three cases of A alone, A and B together, and B alone. In addition, in the description of the embodiments of the present application, "multiple" means two or more than two.

[0030] Among them, the terms "first", "second" are only for description purpose, and cannot be understood as implying or implying relative importance or implicitly indicating the number of indicated technical features. Therefore, the features defined with "first", "second" can explicitly or implicitly include one or more features. In the description of the embodiments of the present application, unless otherwise specified, the meaning of "multiple" is two or more than two.

[0031] The embodiment of the present application provides a kind of computing device.Exemplarily, computing device can be rack server, whole cabinet server, AI (Artificial Intelligence) server, high performance computing (HPC) server, switch and other devices with computing function.

[0032] Figure 1 The structure schematic diagram of a kind of computing device provided by the embodiment of the present application is shown.As shown in Figure 1 The computing device 100 of the embodiment of the present application includes circuit board 04, power module 02 and power connector 03.Power module 02 includes plug-in part 021.Power connector 03 is arranged on circuit board 04 and is electrically connected with circuit board 04.Power connector 03 includes connector body 1 and pad 2.The connector body 1 is located on the side of pad 2 away from circuit board 04.The connector body 1 has adjacent first face A and second face B, and pad 2 is detachably connected to the second face B of connector body 1.The first face A is provided with connection port 13, and the connection port 13 is arranged opposite to plug-in part 021 and is used for electrically connecting with plug-in part 021.The vertical distance between connection port 13 and the surface of circuit board 04 away from power connector 03 is equal to the vertical distance between plug-in part 021 and the surface of circuit board 04 away from power connector 03.

[0033] Power connector 03 is arranged on circuit board 04 and is electrically connected with circuit board 04, and power connector 03 is also electrically connected with power module 02, so as to realize that power module 02 supplies power for circuit board 04.

[0034] By arranging pad 2 between connector body 1 and circuit board 04, the vertical distance between connection port 13 and the surface of circuit board 04 away from power connector 03 depends on the thickness of pad 2 and circuit board 04. Without replacing and adjusting the position of power module 03, the plug-in part 021 of power module 02 can be guaranteed to be at the same height relative to the surface of circuit board 04 away from power connector 03 by pad 2, so as to realize the mutual matching of power module 02 and power connector 03, to realize plug-in.The embodiment of the present application realizes normal plug-in of power connector 03 and power module 02 by adding pad 2 between connector body 1 and circuit board 04, and meets the mutual matching height H of power module 02 and power connector 03. Wherein, the mutual matching height H is the vertical distance between plug-in part 021 and the surface of circuit board 04 facing power connector 03.The scheme of the embodiment of the present application does not need to change other components in computing device, reduces input cost, and shortens product production cycle.

[0035] In some examples, as Figure 1As shown, the computing device 100 can also include a chassis 01. The power module 02, the power connector 03 and the circuit board 04 are all located inside the chassis 01. The power connector 03 is arranged on the circuit board 04, and the power connector 03 can be plugged with the power module 02 to electrically connect the power module 02 with the circuit board 04 through the power connector 03.

[0036] With reference to the drawings again, Figure 1 The chassis 01 can be a cuboid structure, including opposite top plate Q and bottom plate M, and side plate N. The power module 02 includes a plugging part 021 arranged on the side of the power module 02 away from the side plate N. The plugging part 021 can be a golden finger plugging part or other plugging terminal. The circuit board 04 is arranged on the bottom plate M. Specifically, the circuit board 04 can be a mainboard or the like.

[0037] As shown in Figure 1 The plugging part 021 of the power module 02 is spaced apart from the third face C of the circuit board 04. The third face C is a side surface of the circuit board 04 facing the bottom plate M (i.e. the surface of the circuit board 04 away from the power connector 03). The arrangement of the power connector 03 facilitates the power module 02 to supply power to the circuit board 04.

[0038] With reference to the drawings again, Figure 1 In some examples, the connector body 1 can be a cuboid structure, including a housing 11 and a connecting port 13. The housing 11 includes adjacent first face A and second face B. Specifically, the first face A is a side surface of the housing 11 facing the power module 02, and the second face B is a side surface of the housing 11 facing the circuit board 04. The connecting port 13 is arranged on the first face A of the housing 11 and electrically connected with the plugging part 021 of the power module 02.

[0039] The spacer 2 is detachably connected to the second face B of the housing 11 and partially protrudes from the second face B. The vertical distance between the plugging part 021 and the third face C of the circuit board 04 is equal to the vertical distance between the connecting port 13 and the third face C of the circuit board 04. Since the spacer is additionally arranged between the second face B of the housing 11 and the third face C of the circuit board 04, and the connector body 1 and the spacer 2 together constitute the power connector 03 of the present application, the power module 02 and the power connector 03 are matched through the cooperation of the connector body 1 and the spacer 2, without the need to change the type of the chassis of the computing device 100 and re-customize the power connector, thereby reducing the investment cost and shortening the product production cycle.

[0040] In some implementations, when the thickness of the circuit board 04 is a first thickness, the thickness of the spacer 2 protruding from the second face B is a second thickness, and the sum of the first thickness and the second thickness is a fixed value.

[0041] In one possible implementation, when the first thickness is a1, the second thickness can be a2. In another possible implementation, when the first thickness is a1+b1, the second thickness can be a2-b1. In yet another possible implementation, when the first thickness is a1-b1, the second thickness can be a2+b1. It can be understood that when the thickness of the circuit board 04 is larger, for example, due to an increase in the demand for computing power, the number of layers of the circuit board is increased, and the like, the thickness of the pad 2 protruding from the second surface B of the connector body 1 is set to be smaller. When the thickness of the circuit board 04 is smaller, the thickness of the pad 2 protruding from the second surface B of the connector body 1 is set to be larger.

[0042] Since the vertical distance between the connection port 13 and the second surface B of the housing 11 is unchanged, and the sum of the first thickness and the second thickness is a fixed value, the vertical distance between the plug-in part 021 and the surface of the circuit board 04 away from the power connector 03 is equal to the vertical distance between the connection port 13 and the surface of the circuit board 04 away from the power connector 03, so that the normal matching of the plug-in part 021 and the connection port 13 is not affected by the change in the thickness of the circuit board. When the thickness of the circuit board 04 in the computing device 100 changes, by changing the thickness of the pad 2 protruding from the second surface B, the matching of the power module 02 and the power connector 03 can be achieved.

[0043] For example, in a normal case, the circuit board 04 has a threshold thickness. In the actual design of the circuit board of the computing device, the thickness of the circuit board 04 is usually smaller than the threshold thickness. It should be noted that the threshold thickness of the circuit board 04 can be about 3.7 mm-4 mm, for example, the threshold thickness of the circuit board 04 can be about 3.7 mm, 3.8 mm, 3.9 mm, 4 mm, and the like.

[0044] In actual application, the selection of the second thickness of the pad can be designed based on the threshold thickness of the circuit board 04. For example, when the threshold thickness of the circuit board 04 is 3.8 mm, the setting position of the power module is designed based on the threshold thickness and the height of the connector body. When the actual thickness of the circuit board is smaller than the threshold thickness (for example, the thickness of the circuit board 04 is 3 mm), the matching pad with the second thickness can be selected to make the power connector 03 and the power module 02 normally plug-in. In this case, the thickness of the pad 2 protruding from the second surface B can be 0.8 mm.

[0045] In some implementations, the second surface B of the connector body 1 is provided with a receiving groove 111; the pad 2 comprises a pad body 21 and a fixing part 22 connected to each other, and the fixing part 22 is slidably connected with the receiving groove 111, so that the pad 2 is detachably connected with the connector body 1.

[0046] In one possible implementation, Figure 2 A structural schematic diagram of a power connector is provided for the embodiments of the present application.Figure 3 This is a side view of a power connector provided in an embodiment of this application. Figure 2 As shown, the second surface B of the housing 11 of the connector body 1 is provided with a receiving groove 111. (As indicated...) Figure 3 As shown, the pad 2 includes a pad body 21 and a fixing part 22 connected to each other. The fixing part 22 is slidably connected to the receiving groove 111, so that the pad 2 is detachably connected to the connector body 1. The pad body 21 can protrude entirely from the second surface B of the housing 11 for mating with the connector body 1 to achieve the interlocking of the power connector 03 and the power module 02. (Refer to...) Figure 1 The vertical distance between the connection port 13 of the connector body 1 and the second surface B of the housing 11 is m, and the thickness of the pad body is n. Therefore, the mating height H = m + n. In this embodiment, the pad body 21 and the connector body 1 cooperate to satisfy the mating height H of the power connector 03 and the power module 02.

[0047] In one possible implementation method, Figure 4 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of a pad provided in an embodiment of this application. Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, the pad 2 includes a pad body 21 and two fixing parts 22 connected to the pad body 21. The pad body 21 includes a fourth surface D and a fifth surface E facing each other. The two fixing parts 22 are both disposed on the fourth surface D of the pad body 21 and are located at both ends of the pad body 21 along its length. The pad 2 is detachably connected to the connector body 1 through the two fixing parts 22, which helps to improve the structural stability of the entire power connector 03. It should be noted that the number of fixing parts 22 can also be one or more. The pad body 21 and the fixing parts 22 can be integrally formed or connected by means of bonding, bonding, etc.

[0048] In some implementations, the fixing part 22 includes a first part 221 and a second part 222. The first part 221 is connected to the pad body 21, and the second part 222 is located on the side of the first part 221 away from the pad body 21. The cross-sectional dimension of the first part 221 along the first surface A is smaller than the cross-sectional dimension of the second part 222 along the first surface A.

[0049] In one possible implementation method, Figure 5 This is a front view structural diagram of a pad block provided in an embodiment of this application. One possible implementation is as follows: Figure 2 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the cross-section of the fixing part 22 parallel to the first surface A is approximately T-shaped. That is, the cross-sectional dimension of the first part 221 parallel to the first surface A is smaller than the cross-sectional dimension of the second part 222 parallel to the first surface A.

[0050] One possible way to achieve this is, such asFigure 5 As shown in

[0051] In some implementations, the cushion block body 21 has a first end close to the first face A, and the fixing part 22 has a second end close to the first face A, the second end being away from the first opening relative to the first end.

[0052] Figure 6 A side view structure schematic diagram of a cushion block provided by an embodiment of the present application is shown in Figure 4 and Figure 6 As shown in Figure 4 and Figure 6 along the assembly direction of the cushion block 2 (the X direction in and

[0053] The fixing part 22 includes opposite sixth face F and seventh face G, and the cushion block body 21 includes opposite eighth face J and ninth face I, the sixth face F of the fixing part 22 is in the same plane as the eighth face J of the cushion block body 21, and the seventh face G of the fixing part 22 is in front of the ninth face I of the cushion block body 21, that is, the fixing part 22 and the cushion block body 21 cooperate to form an avoiding space close to the seventh face G.

[0054] It can be understood that the first end of the cushion block body 21 is the end on the side of the ninth face I, and the second end of the fixing part 22 is the end on the side of the seventh face G. Figure 1 Figure 4 In a possible implementation, continuing to refer to and

[0055] The fourth face D of the cushion block body 21 is in contact with the second face B of the shell 11, and the fifth face E of the cushion block body 21 is in contact with the surface of the circuit board 04 close to the power connector 03 (that is, the surface of the circuit board 04 connected with the connecting terminal 12). Figure 7 Another structure schematic diagram of a cushion block provided by an embodiment of the present application is shown in Figure 8 Another structure schematic diagram of a cushion block provided by an embodiment of the present application is shown in Figure 4 , Figure 7 and Figure 8 The cushion block body 21 of the cushion block 2 of the embodiment of the present application can have a plurality of different thicknesses, as shown in Figure 4 The thickness of the cushion block body 21 in Figure 7 The thickness of the cushion block body 21 in Figure 8The thickness of the gasket body 21 is n3. The power connector 03 can include gaskets 2 with different thicknesses of gasket bodies 21, and a corresponding gasket 2 can be selected according to actual conditions to cooperate with the connector body 1 to adapt to the mutual matching height H of the power connector 03 and the power module 02, meet the installation requirements of the computing device 100, and then realize the connection of the power module 02 to the circuit board 04 through the power connector 03.

[0056] In some implementations, the connector body 1 further includes a connection terminal 12 disposed on the second face B and used for electrical connection with the circuit board 04; and the thickness of the gasket body 21 is less than the length of the connection terminal 12 protruding from the second face B.

[0057] In one possible implementation, as shown in Figures 1-3 , the connector body 1 further includes a connection terminal 12 disposed on the second face B of the housing 11 and electrically connected with the circuit board 04. The plug-in part 021 of the power module 02 is electrically connected with the connection port 13 of the connector body 1, thereby realizing the electrical connection of the power module 02 to the circuit board 04 through the power connector 03, so that the power module 02 supplies power to the circuit board 04. Referring to Figure 3 , along the extension direction of the connection terminal 12, the thickness d of the gasket body 21 is less than the length e of the connection terminal 12 protruding from the second face B of the housing 11 of the connector body 1. In this way, the connection terminal 12 can have a length margin for connection with the circuit board 04, realize the connection of the power connector 03 to the circuit board 04, and then realize the power supply of the power module 02 to the circuit board 04. In this way, the power connector 03 can meet the required mutual matching height H without affecting the connection of the connection terminal 12 to the circuit board 04, ensure the normal use of the computing device 100, and improve the installation precision and reduce the occupied space.

[0058] In some implementations, the receiving groove 111 penetrates the first face A at one end close to the first face A to form a first opening, to allow the fixing part 22 to slide into the receiving groove 111 from the first opening, and the shape of the first opening matches the cross-sectional shape of the fixing part along the first face A; and the gasket body 21 protrudes relative to the second face B.

[0059] In one possible implementation, as shown in Figure 2 , the receiving groove 111 penetrates the first face A of the housing 11 at one end close to the first face A of the housing 11, that is, the receiving groove 111 forms a first opening on the first face A to allow the fixing part 22 to slide into the receiving groove 111 from the first opening; and the receiving groove 111 penetrates the second face B of the housing 11 at one end close to the second face B of the housing 11, that is, the receiving groove 111 forms a second opening on the second face B to allow the gasket body 21 to protrude from the second face B.

[0060] In one possible implementation, Figure 9 A structure diagram of the accommodating groove is provided for the embodiment of the present application. As shown in Figure 9 in combination with Figure 4 , Figure 7 and Figure 8 , the size a of the accommodating groove 111 close to the second face B is smaller than the size b away from the second face B, so that the accommodating groove 111 can match the shape (approximately T-shaped structure) of the fixing part 22 of the pad 2, and is beneficial to prevent the pad 2 from being pulled out and improve the structural stability of the entire power connector 10. Of course, the cross section of the accommodating groove 111 and the fixing part 22 along the first face A can also be other shapes, as long as the shape matching relationship is met. The sliding connection of the accommodating groove 111 of the connector body 1 and the fixing part 22 is beneficial to realize the disassembly of the pad 2 and the connector body 1, and then facilitate the selection of a corresponding pad 2 to cooperate with the connector body 1 to realize the mutual matching of the power connector 03 and the power module 02.

[0061] In some implementations, the power connector 03 further comprises an elastic limiting part 3, which is arranged on the groove wall of the accommodating groove 111 and close to the first opening; the elastic limiting part 3 is used for limiting the second end of the fixing part 22, and the elastic limiting part 3 is used for limiting the fixing part 22 in the accommodating groove 111.

[0062] In one possible implementation, Figure 10 A structure diagram of the accommodating groove and the elastic limiting part is provided for the embodiment of the present application. Referring to Figure 10 in combination with Figure 2 and Figure 3 , the shell 11 of the connector body 1 further comprises an elastic limiting part 3, which is arranged on the groove wall of the accommodating groove 111 and protrudes from the groove wall of the accommodating groove 111, and is close to the first opening of the accommodating groove 111. When the pad 2 is slidingly assembled in the accommodating groove 111, along the assembly direction of the pad 2 (X direction in Figure 10 ), the elastic limiting part 3 is located behind the fixing part 22 and in the avoiding space formed by the cooperation of the fixing part 22 and the pad body 21, so as to limit the fixing part 22 in the accommodating groove 111. The cooperation of the elastic limiting part 3 and the fixing part 22 of the pad 2 can realize the position fixation of the pad 2 after installation.

[0063] Referring to Figure 2 and Figure 3When the pad 2 is slidingly assembled into the accommodating groove 111 from the first opening, the fixing portion 22 will extrude the elastic limiting member 3 to make it deformed. When the fixing portion 22 passes through the elastic limiting member 3 completely, i.e. the fixing portion 22 does not contact the elastic limiting member 3, the elastic limiting member 3 restores the deformation and cooperates with the seventh surface G of the fixing portion 22 to limit the fixing portion 22, thereby avoiding the fixing portion 22 from escaping from the accommodating groove 111, improving the structural stability of the power connector 03, and further ensuring the power supply function of the power module 02 to the circuit board 04.

[0064] In some implementations, the elastic limiting member includes one or more of an elastic plastic member, an elastic silica gel member, an elastic rubber member, a spring, or a metal spring.

[0065] In one possible implementation, referring to Figure 10 The limiting member 3 can be a metal spring protruding from the groove wall of the accommodating groove 111. When the fixing portion 22 is slidingly assembled into the accommodating groove 111 from the first opening of the shell 11, the fixing portion 22 extrudes the metal spring to make it deformed. When the fixing portion 22 passes through the metal spring completely, the metal spring restores the deformation and cooperates with the seventh surface G of the fixing portion 22 to limit the fixing portion 22.

[0066] In another possible implementation, Figure 11 Another structure schematic diagram of the accommodating groove and the elastic limiting member provided by the embodiment of the present application is provided. As shown in Figure 11 The elastic limiting member 3 can be a spring protruding from the groove wall of the accommodating groove 111. One end of the spring is arranged on the groove wall of the accommodating groove 111, and the other end is a free end protruding from the groove wall of the accommodating groove 111. When the fixing portion 22 is slidingly assembled into the accommodating groove 111 from the first opening of the shell 11, the fixing portion 22 extrudes the spring to make it deformed. When the fixing portion 22 passes through the spring completely, the spring restores the deformation, the free end extends into the avoiding space, and cooperates with the seventh surface G of the fixing portion 22 to limit the fixing portion 22.

[0067] The embodiment of the present application realizes the installation and fixation of the pad 2 and the connector body 1 through the deformability and the ability to restore the deformation of the elastic limiting member 3, so that the power module 02 continuously supplies power to the circuit board 04 through the power connector 03. It should be noted that the material of the elastic limiting member 3 of the embodiment of the present application can also be an elastic plastic, an elastic silica gel, or an elastic rubber. The specific material includes but is not limited to the above-mentioned materials.

[0068] In some implementations, the power connector 03 further includes a first magnetic limiting member 4 arranged on the groove wall of the accommodating groove 111; the fixing portion 22 includes a second magnetic limiting member, and the first magnetic limiting member 4 can contact the second magnetic limiting member to limit the fixing portion 22 in the accommodating groove 111.

[0069] Figure 12 Another structure schematic diagram of the accommodating groove and the magnetic limiting member is provided for the embodiment of the present application. In another possible implementation manner, as shown in Figure 12 The shell 11 further includes a first magnetic limiting member 4 which is arranged on the groove wall of the accommodating groove 111. The fixing portion 22 is provided with a second magnetic limiting member. When the cushion block 2 is slidably assembled in the accommodating groove 111, the first magnetic limiting member 4 contacts the second magnetic limiting member, and the fixing portion 22 is limited in the accommodating groove 111 by magnetic force.

[0070] It should be noted that the specific structure of the limiting member and the fixing manner of the cushion block 2 can adopt various schemes to realize the fixing of the cushion block 2. For example, the fixing portion 22 of the cushion block 2 can also be designed in the form of clamping with the limiting member 3, which is not limited herein.

[0071] Obviously, persons of ordinary skill in the art can make various modifications and variations to the embodiments of the present application without departing from the spirit and scope of the present application. Thus, if these modifications and variations of the present application belong to the scope of the claims of the present application and the equivalent technologies thereof, the present application also intends to include these modifications and variations.
