They are only for the convenience of describing this technical solution and do not indicate that the device or component referred to must have a specific orientation; therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this utility model.
[0045] Currently, the adapter terminals of commonly used flip-type electrical connectors are fixedly installed on the insertion path of the connector. When the connector is inserted into the flip-type connector, the connector can only be inserted horizontally because of the adapter terminals on the insertion path. When inserted at an angle, the connector will not be inserted properly due to the influence of the adapter terminals. The connector can only be inserted horizontally, which cannot meet the needs of automatic wiring equipment that inserts connectors at an angle.
[0046] like Figure 7 , Figure 8The diagram shows the structure of a commonly used flip-type electrical connector. This flip-type electrical connector includes a second adapter terminal 17, which is fixedly disposed on the insertion path of the connector. When the connector is inserted into the flip-type electrical connector, due to the influence of the second adapter terminal 17, the connector can only be inserted horizontally. If inserted at an angle, the connector may not be properly inserted due to the second adapter terminal 17.
[0047] To address the aforementioned technical problems, this utility model provides a flip-type electrical connector. For example... Figure 1 As shown, the flip-type electrical connector may include a first base 10, a first signal connection terminal 11, and a first flip cover 12 that is rotatably disposed; wherein, a first grounding terminal 14 is disposed on the first base 10; the first signal connection terminal 11 is disposed on the first base 10; a first adapter terminal 13 is disposed on the first flip cover 12, the first flip cover 12 is used to press a plug 15 inserted into the first base 10, when the first flip cover 12 presses down on the plug 15, the first adapter terminal 13 is connected to the plug 15 and the first grounding terminal 14 on the first base 10, and the first signal connection terminal 11 is connected to the plug 15 on the first base 10.
[0048] Specifically, such as Figure 2 As shown, the flip-type electrical connector can be mounted on a printed circuit board 16 (PCB), and the first grounding terminal 14 is connected to the grounding terminal 161 of the printed circuit board. When configured, several first signal connection terminals 11 can be spaced apart along a first direction, which is perpendicular to the insertion direction of the connector 15 when it is inserted into the first base 10. The specific number of first signal connection terminals 11 can be determined by those skilled in the art based on actual conditions, and is not limited here.
[0049] In a specific application of this flip-type electrical connector, the connector 15 is inserted into the first base 10; then, the first flip cover 12 is rotated so that the first flip cover 12 presses the connector 15 onto the first base 10. At this time, the connector 15 is connected to the first signal connection terminal 11, and the first adapter terminal 13 is connected to the first ground terminal 14. The first signal connection terminal 11 is connected to the connector 15 on the first base 10. The connector 15 can be a ribbon cable, also known as a flexible printed circuit board (FPC).
[0050] In this embodiment, since the first adapter terminal 13 is disposed on the first flip cover 12, the first adapter terminal 13 also rotates when the first flip cover 12 rotates. Therefore, the first adapter terminal 13 does not affect the insertion of the plug 15, so that the plug 15 can be inserted not only horizontally, but also at an angle, which can meet the needs of automatic wiring equipment that inserts the plug 15 at an angle.
[0051] In some embodiments, when the first flip cover 12 is set, a rotating shaft can be provided at the end of the first flip cover 12, and the first flip cover 12 can be rotated and set on the first grounding terminal 14 by the rotating shaft.
[0052] Furthermore, such as Figure 5 As shown, the first grounding terminal 14 may include a first metal plate 141, which is disposed on the first base 10 and grounded. The first flip cover 12 is rotatably disposed on the first metal plate 141. When the first flip cover 12 is pressed against the plug 15 (the plug 15 inserted into the first base 10), the first metal plate 141 is also connected to the first adapter terminal 13.
[0053] In some embodiments, such as Figure 5 As shown, the first metal plate 141 may include a first adapter plate 1411 and a first support plate 1412; the first adapter plate 1411 is disposed on the first base 10, one end of the first adapter plate 1411 is bent along the thickness direction of the first adapter plate 1411 to form a first bent section 1411a, the first bent section 1411a is connected to the ground, and the other end of the first adapter plate 1411 is bent to form a second bent section 1411b, a portion of the second bent section 1411b can connect with the unbent plate on the first adapter plate 1411. The bodies are parallel, and the second bent section 1411b and the first bent section 1411a are located on both sides of the unbent body of the first adapter plate 1411. When the first flip cover 12 is pressed against the plug 15, the second bent section 1411b is connected to the first adapter terminal 13. One end of the first support plate 1412 is connected to the first adapter plate 1411, and the other end of the first support plate 1412 extends in a direction perpendicular to the thickness direction of the first adapter plate 1411. The first flip cover 12 is rotatably mounted on the first support plate 1412.
[0054] Specifically, when one end of the first adapter plate 1411 is bent, it is bent at 90° to form a first bent segment 1411a, which is perpendicular to the unbent segment 1411c of the first adapter plate. When the other end of the first adapter plate 1411 is bent, it is first bent at 90°, and then bent at 90° to form a second bent segment 1411b (the other end of the first adapter plate 1411 roughly forms a hook structure). When the first adapter terminal 13 is connected to the second bent segment 1411b, the first adapter terminal 13 can be connected to the bent segment of the other end of the first adapter plate 1411 that is bent at 90° again.
[0055] When supporting the first flip cover 12, the first flip cover 12 can be rotated and set on the first support plate 1412 by rotating the first flip cover 12. The first support plate 1412 and the first adapter plate 1411 can be formed in one piece by stamping metal sheet.
[0056] In some embodiments, such as Figure 3 , Figure 6 As shown, a receiving cavity 101 is provided on the first base 10, penetrating the upper surface and one side of the first base 10. A first support platform 102 and a second support platform 103 are provided inside the receiving cavity 101. One end of the first support platform 102 is connected to the cavity wall on the side of the receiving cavity 101, and the other end of the first support platform 102 is connected to one end of the second support platform 103. A first clearance hole 104 is provided on the first support platform 102, penetrating the inner and outer surfaces of the first support platform 102. A first support plate 1412 passes through the first clearance hole 104, and a first flip cover 12 is rotatably mounted on the plate body of the first support plate 1412 that passes through the first clearance hole 104. The second support platform 103... The other end extends outward from the accommodating cavity 101 to form a first groove 105. The first groove 105 penetrates the bottom of the accommodating cavity 101. A second clearance hole 106 is provided at the bottom of the cavity wall on the side of the accommodating cavity 101. The first bent section 1411a passes through the second clearance hole 106 and is grounded. The second bent section 1411b overlaps the top of the second support platform 103, and the end of the second bent section 1411b and the unbent section 1411c of the first adapter plate are located on both sides of the second support platform 103. The first clearance hole 104 is located between the cavity wall on the side of the accommodating cavity 101 and the first support platform 102. The first adapter plate 1411 abuts against the outer surface of the first support platform 102.
[0057] Specifically, the receiving cavity 101 can be a square cavity, wherein one side refers to the side through which the connector 15 passes when it is inserted into the first base 10. The first signal connection terminals 11 are spaced apart in the receiving cavity 101 along a first direction, which is perpendicular to the insertion direction of the connector 15 when it is inserted into the first base 10.
[0058] When the first support platform 102 is installed, a square platform can be integrally formed within the receiving cavity 101 of the first base 10. This square platform is perpendicular to the side wall of the receiving cavity 101, and this square platform serves as the first support platform 102. Similarly, another square platform can be integrally formed within the receiving cavity 101 of the first base 10, perpendicularly connected to the first support platform 102. This square platform is parallel to the side wall of the receiving cavity 101, and its other end extends outward from the receiving cavity 101. Roughly speaking, the first support platform 102 and the second support platform 103 form a "T"-shaped support structure on the side wall of the receiving cavity 101. The second support platform 103 and the side wall of the receiving cavity 101 form a first groove 105, which penetrates the bottom of the receiving cavity 101.
[0059] When the first clearance hole 104 is opened, the outline structure of the first support plate 1412 and the outline structure of the first adapter plate 1411 need to be considered. It is necessary to ensure that the first support plate 1412 can be inserted into the first clearance hole 104, and the first adapter plate 1411 can abut against the outer surface of the first support platform 102. When opening the first clearance hole 104, those skilled in the art can determine the opening size of the first clearance hole 104 according to the actual situation, and no further restrictions are imposed here.
[0060] When the second clearance hole 106 is opened, the second clearance hole 106 is opened at the bottom of the cavity wall on the side of the receiving cavity 101. Specifically, when opening it, the contour structure of the third bending segment 1311 needs to be considered, and it needs to be ensured that the first bending segment 1411a can pass through the second clearance hole 106 and can be connected to the ground terminal 161 of the printed circuit board.
[0061] When the first metal plate 141 is specifically installed, the first support plate 1412 is inserted into the first clearance hole 104, the first bent section 1411a is inserted into the second clearance hole 106, and the first bent section 1411a is connected to the ground terminal 161 of the printed circuit board by welding. The hook structure formed by the second bent section 1411b overlaps the top of the second support platform 103. The unbent section 1411c of the first adapter plate is embedded between the second support platform 103 and the cavity wall on the side of the receiving cavity 101 (i.e., the first groove 105).
[0062] In this embodiment, the first support platform 102 and the second support platform 103 not only support the first metal plate 141, but also limit the insertion direction of the first metal plate 141 along the plug 15 into the first base 10 by the first support platform 102 because the first adapter plate 1411 abuts against the outer surface of the first support platform 102, thereby improving the stability of the flip-type electrical connector when it is used.
[0063] In some embodiments, such as Figure 5 As shown, a stop groove 1412a is provided above the plate body extending from the first clearance hole 104 of the first support plate 1412. The first flip cover 12 is rotatably disposed in the stop groove 1412a. A first limiting protrusion 1412b is provided on the side of the first support plate 1412 away from the stop groove 1412a. A first limiting protrusion 1412b is provided at the end of the first support plate 1412 away from the stop groove 1412a. The first limiting protrusion 1412b is embedded in the first base 10.
[0064] Specifically, the accommodating cavity 101 is provided with a limiting groove that cooperates with the first limiting protrusion 1412b. After the first support plate 1412 passes through the first clearance hole 104, the first limiting protrusion 1412b is located in the limiting groove after a portion of the first support plate 1412 continues to pass through. The first metal plate 141 can be limited by the limiting groove.
[0065] When the stop groove 1412a is provided, the stop groove 1412a is located between the first support platform 102 and the rear wall of the receiving cavity 101, and close to the rear wall of the receiving cavity 101. The rotating shaft at the end of the first flip cover 12 is rotatably set in the stop groove 1412a, so that the first flip cover 12 can rotate, and the first flip cover 12 is limited by the stop groove 1412a and the rear wall of the receiving cavity 101.
[0066] When the first limiting protrusion 1412b is set, a first limiting protrusion 1412b is set on the side of the first support plate 1412 away from the stop groove 1412a. Correspondingly, a limiting groove that cooperates with the first limiting protrusion 1412b is set on the bottom wall of the accommodating cavity 101. When the first adapter plate 1411 abuts against the outer surface of the first support platform 102, the first limiting protrusion 1412b is located in the limiting groove to prevent the first metal plate 141 from moving.
[0067] In some embodiments, such as Figure 4 As shown, the first adapter terminal 13 may include a second metal plate 131, a first adapter spring 132, and a second adapter spring 133; wherein, the second metal plate 131 is disposed on the first flip cover 12; the first adapter spring 132 is located below the first flip cover 12, one end of the first adapter spring 132 is connected to the second metal plate 131, and the other end of the first adapter spring 132 extends downward away from the first flip cover 12; the second adapter spring 133 is located on the side of the first flip cover 12, one end of the second adapter spring 133 is connected to the second metal plate 131, and the other end of the second adapter spring 133 extends away from the side of the first flip cover 12; wherein, when the first flip cover 12 is pressed against the plug 15, the first adapter spring 132 is connected to the plug 15, and the second adapter spring 133 is connected to the second bent section 1411b.
[0068] Specifically, a first adapter spring 132 and a second adapter spring 133 can be integrally formed on the second metal plate 131. When the first adapter spring 132 is installed, the extension distance of the end of the first adapter spring 132 extending downwards away from the first flip cover 12 needs to be determined according to the actual situation. It is necessary to ensure that when the first flip cover 12 is pressed against the connector 15, the first adapter spring 132 can connect with the connector 15. Similarly, when the second adapter spring 133 is installed, the extension distance of the end of the second adapter spring 133 extending away from the side of the first flip cover 12 needs to be determined according to the actual situation. It is necessary to ensure that when the first flip cover 12 is pressed against the connector 15, the second adapter spring 133 can connect with the second bent section 1411b.
[0069] Furthermore, one end of the second metal plate 131 can be bent along the thickness direction of the second metal plate 131 to form a third bent section 1311, and the third bent section 1311 is provided with a snap-fit portion 134 for limiting the first metal plate 141; the other end of the second metal plate 131 is bent to form a fourth bent section 1312, and the third bent section 1311 and the fourth bent section 1312 are located on the same side of the unbent plate of the second metal plate 131, wherein the first adapter spring 132 is provided with At the third bending section 1311, the second adapter spring 133 is disposed on the unbent plate of the second metal plate 131; the bottom of the first flip cover 12 is provided with a second groove 121, the end of the third bending section 1311 is embedded in the second groove 121, the groove wall of the second groove 121 is provided with a snap-fit groove, and the snap-fit part 134 is located in the snap-fit groove; the top of the first flip cover 12 is provided with a third groove 122, and the end of the fourth bending section 1312 is embedded in the third groove 122.
[0070] Specifically, when bending the second metal plate 131, one end of the second metal plate 131 is bent upwards twice along the thickness direction of the second metal plate 131, first bent at 90° and then bent at 90° to form a hook structure. The other end of the second metal plate 131 is also bent twice, first at 90° and then bent at 90° to form a hook structure, wherein the other end of the second metal plate 131 is opposite to one end of the first metal plate 141. When the first adapter spring 132 is provided, it is provided on the third bending section 1311. When the second adapter spring 133 is provided, it is provided on the unbent portion of the second metal plate 131. When the snap-fit part 134 is provided, it can be a snap-fit piece, one end of which is connected to the end of the fourth bending section 1312, and the other end of which extends towards the unbent portion of the second metal plate 131.

[0072] Furthermore, such as Figure 5 As shown, a contact groove 1411d is provided on the surface of the second bent section 1411b that contacts the second adapter spring 133. When the first flip cover 12 is pressed against the plug 15, the second adapter spring 133 is located in the contact groove 1411d.
[0073] Specifically, a square groove can be formed on the surface of the second bending section 1411b that contacts the second adapter spring 133. This square groove is a contact groove 1411d. When the first flip cover 12 is pressed against the plug 15, the contact end of the second adapter spring 133 and the second bending section 1411b is located in the square groove and abuts against the upper wall and bottom of the square groove to limit the second adapter spring 133.
[0074] In this embodiment, by setting the contact groove 1411d, the second adapter spring 133 can be connected to the second bending section 1411b, and the contact groove 1411d further limits the second adapter spring 133, thereby improving the stability of the connection between the second adapter spring 133 and the second bending section 1411b.

[0077] In this embodiment, since the first adapter terminal 13 is disposed on the first flip cover 12, the first adapter terminal 13 also rotates when the first flip cover 12 rotates. Therefore, the first adapter terminal 13 does not affect the insertion of the plug 15, so that the plug 15 can be inserted not only horizontally, but also at an angle, which can meet the needs of automatic wiring equipment that inserts the plug 15 at an angle.
