Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of connector technology, and in particular to a connector housing that is easy to insert. Background Technology
[0002] A board-to-board connector typically consists of a plug connector and a socket connector, both of which contain conductive terminals. The conductive terminals of the plug connector and the socket connector abut against each other to establish conductivity. In confined spaces, misalignment can occur between the plug and socket. Workers cannot observe the alignment of the plug and socket under the circuit board, requiring repeated attempts, which is time-consuming and laborious. Furthermore, forceful insertion can damage the plug. Therefore, this invention proposes a connector housing that facilitates easier insertion. Utility Model Content
[0003] The main objective of this invention is to provide a connector housing that facilitates insertion. The first guide slope and the fourth guide slope guide the movable housing, allowing it to enter the guide groove and initially position the male and female connectors. The arc surface and the third guide slope guide the insertion part. The positioning block enters the positioning groove under the guidance of the second guide slope, thereby precisely positioning the male and female connectors. The movable housing has a certain amount of floating, thus eliminating the need for precise alignment of the male and female connectors to complete the insertion, saving time and effort.
[0004] This utility model achieves the above-mentioned objective through the following technical solution: a connector housing for easy insertion, including a male socket and a female socket, the female socket including a fixed shell and a movable shell, the fixed shell having a movable cavity, the movable shell being located within the movable cavity, the movable shell having an insertion part, the male socket having an insertion groove, the insertion groove having a signal terminal, the fixed shell and the movable shell being connected by a signal terminal, the male socket having a guide groove, the insertion groove being located within the guide groove, the bottom of the inner side of the guide groove having a first guide slope, the upper end face of the insertion part having a positioning groove along its length direction, and the top of the insertion groove having a positioning block matching the positioning groove.
[0005] Preferably, the lower end face of the positioning block is provided with a second guide slope on both sides.
[0006] Preferably, both sides of the opening of the positioning groove are provided with arc surfaces.
[0007] Preferably, the bottom of both sides of the insertion slot is provided with a third guide slope.
[0008] Preferably, the movable shell includes two side plates and a horizontal plate connecting the two side plates. The lower end face of the horizontal plate is provided with a connecting plate connecting the two side plates. The upper end face of the horizontal plate is provided with the insertion part. The edge of the upper end face of the side plate is provided with a fourth guide slope.
[0009] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: the first guide slope and the fourth guide slope are used to guide the movable shell, so that the movable shell enters the guide groove and initially positions the male and female seats. The arc surface and the third guide slope can guide the insertion part. The positioning block enters the positioning groove under the guidance of the second guide slope, thereby accurately positioning the male and female seats. The movable shell has a certain amount of floating, so the insertion can be completed without precisely aligning the male and female seats, saving time and effort. Attached Figure Description

[0014] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to specific embodiments.
[0015] Example:
[0016] like Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, this utility model discloses a connector housing for easy insertion, including a male socket 1 and a female socket 2. The female socket 2 includes a fixed shell 3 and a movable shell 4. The fixed shell 3 has a movable cavity, and the movable shell 4 is located inside the movable cavity. The movable shell 4 has a plug-in part 5. The male socket 1 has a plug-in groove 6, and a signal terminal 7 is provided in the plug-in groove 6. The fixed shell 3 and the movable shell 4 are connected by the signal terminal 7. The male socket 1 has a guide groove 8, and the plug-in groove 6 is located in the guide groove 8. The bottom of the inner side of the guide groove 8 has a first guide slope 9. The upper end face of the plug-in part 5 has a positioning groove 10 along its length direction. The top of the plug-in groove 6 has a positioning block 11 that matches the positioning groove 10.
[0017] The lower end face of the positioning block 11 is provided with a second guide slope 12 on both sides.
[0018] Both sides of the opening of the positioning groove 10 are provided with arc surfaces 13.
[0019] The bottom of both sides of the insertion slot 6 is provided with a third guide slope 14.
[0020] The movable housing 4 includes two side plates 15 and a horizontal plate 16 connecting the two side plates 15. The lower end face of the horizontal plate 16 is provided with a connecting plate connecting the two side plates 15. The upper end face of the horizontal plate 16 is provided with the insertion part 5. The edge of the upper end face of the side plate 15 is provided with a fourth guide slope 17. One end of the signal terminal 7 is embedded in the outer side wall of the insertion part 5 and its surface is exposed on the side wall of the insertion part 5 for contacting the contact terminal. The other end of the signal terminal 7 is embedded in the fixed housing 3 and soldered to the circuit board. The movable housing 4 is connected to the fixed housing 3 through the signal terminal 7, thereby having a certain horizontal floating amount. When the female seat 2 is misaligned with the working part, it can still be smoothly inserted, avoiding damage caused by violent insertion.
[0021] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: When the male seat 1 is pressed onto the female seat 2, the first guide slope 9 and the fourth guide slope 17 guide the movable shell 4, causing the movable shell 4 to enter the guide groove 8, thus initially positioning the male seat 1 and the female seat 2; as the male seat 1 is pressed down further, the insertion part 5 extends into the insertion groove 6, and the arc surface 13 and the third guide slope 14 guide the insertion part 5. Under the guidance of the second guide slope 12, the positioning block 11 enters the positioning groove 10. As the male seat 1 is pressed down further, the positioning block 11 is fully inserted into the positioning groove 10, thereby accurately positioning the male seat 1 and the female seat 2 and completing the docking of the male seat 1 and the female seat 2.
