Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of connector technology, and in particular to a multifunctional combined double-layer plug socket. Background Technology

[0002] A double-layer connector is a combination structure in which two connectors are arranged in two layers, and the two connectors are fixed to a mounting base by a mounting bracket and a corresponding mounting shell. In use, the soldering pins of the upper connector and the lower connector can be soldered to the metal terminals of the PCB board. Typically, the mounting base and the lower connector also have pins that correspond to the positioning holes on the PCB board. Its structure is similar to that of the "USB AF all-plastic double-layer connector" proposed in Chinese Utility Model No. CN209913108U, or the "double-layer TYPE-C connector structure" proposed in Chinese Utility Model No. CN214378956U.

[0003] To accommodate simultaneous insertion of both upper and lower connecting females, a large clearance is typically provided between the two layers. Currently, some double-layer connecting females use a fixed shell to cover this clearance; others fill it during the molding of the fixed base. For miniaturized product designs, this results in wasted space and hinders the inclusion of more functionalities. Utility Model Content

Detailed Implementation

[0024] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0025] Please see Figure 1-4 A multifunctional combined double-layer insert socket includes a fixed base 1, an upper connecting socket 2 and a lower connecting socket 3. The fixed base 1 has an upper mounting groove 4 for fixing the upper connecting socket, a first front opening communicating with the upper mounting groove 4, a lower mounting groove 5 for fixing the lower connecting socket, and a second front opening communicating with the lower mounting groove 5.

[0026] The insertion port of the upper female connector 2 is exposed through the first front opening to facilitate connection with an external data cable plug; the insertion port of the lower female connector 3 is exposed through the second front opening to facilitate connection with an external data cable plug.

[0027] The mounting base 1 is provided with an additional mounting slot 6 located between the upper mounting slot 4 and the lower mounting slot 5. An additional electrical function component 7 is installed on the additional mounting slot 6. The additional electrical function component 7 performs electrical functions other than the insertion and use of the upper connecting female socket 2 and the lower connecting female socket 3.

[0028] In some embodiments, control commands transmitted by the control system electrically connected to the additional electrical function 7 can be executed by the additional electrical function 7, in which case the additional electrical function 7 is configured as an output function.

[0029] In some embodiments, the additional electrical functional component 7 can acquire signals of the current usage scenario to transmit signals to the electrically connected control system. In this case, the additional electrical functional component 7 is configured as an input functional component. For example, the additional electrical functional component is a temperature sensor.

[0030] In some embodiments, when the multifunctional combined double-layer plug-in socket is soldered onto the corresponding PCB board, the pins of the additional electrical functional component are electrically connected to the corresponding metal terminals of the control system (such as soldering to the metal terminals corresponding to the peripheral circuits of the control chip on the PCB board), thereby realizing the electrical connection between the additional electrical functional component and the control system.

[0031] It is worth noting that, in order to meet the electrical connection of the additional electrical functional component 7, a wiring channel connecting the additional mounting slot can be opened at the corresponding position on the fixed base 1 according to the design requirements.

[0032] In this embodiment, the front side of the fixed base 1 is provided with an information transmission window 8 that connects to the additional mounting slot 6.

[0033] The additional electrical function 7 is an output function, and is further configured as a light signal transmitter that can transmit information to the user through the information transmission window 8.

[0034] Preferably, a light-transmitting protective cover 9 is installed on the mounting base 1 to cover the information transmission window 8. The light-transmitting protective cover 9 may be a light-transmitting acrylic cover, a light-transmitting polycarbonate cover, or other light-transmitting cover.

[0035] In some embodiments, the light signal transmitter is an LED light.

[0036] In some embodiments, the light signal transmitter is an RGB tri-color LED.

[0037] In some embodiments, the light signal transmitter is an LED matrix light.

[0040] When the female connector is plugged into an external data cable plug, the positioning lug 10 can also be used to help the female connector resist the top pressure when the data cable plug is inserted.

[0041] In the case of having a light-transmitting protective cover 9, preferably, a slot 11 is formed between the positioning lug 10 and the rear wall of the additional mounting groove 6, and a rearwardly extending fastening wing 12 is formed on the light-transmitting protective cover 9 near the positioning lug 10 (such as a rearwardly extending fastening wing formed on the periphery of the light-transmitting protective cover), and an anti-disengagement block 13 that cooperates with the slot 11 is formed on the fastening wing 12.

[0042] After the connection female with positioning lug 10 is installed and the optical signal transmitter is installed, the light-transmitting protective cover 9 can be installed by engaging the anti-detachment block 13 with the slot 11. The installation is convenient and not easy to detach, and the positioning lug 10 of the connection female is fully utilized, eliminating the need to prepare the corresponding slot separately, making the processing and preparation more convenient.

[0043] In some embodiments, the multifunctional combined double-layer insert socket is a 90-degree bent multifunctional combined double-layer insert socket, that is, the welding pins of the upper layer connecting socket 2 and the welding pins of the lower layer connecting socket 3 are both set to extend backward and bend downward by 90 degrees.
