[0029] Embodiment 1

[0030] Please refer to Figures 1-8 The utility model provides a technical scheme:

[0031] The ear buckle structure of the insertion slot connector comprises:

[0032] The plastic main body 1, and the first tower part 2 and the second tower part 3 arranged at both ends of the plastic main body 1, the detachable fixed ear buckle 4 is fixedly installed in the inside of the first tower part 2, the movable groove 31 is set up in the inside of the second tower part 3, and the movable ear buckle 6 for adapting card fixed or push is arranged in the movable groove 31;

[0033] The first tower part 2 is inserted with the elastic body 5 of the buckle position for adapting card abutting fixed.

[0034] In an optional embodiment: the second tower part 3 is provided with a pin hole 32 and a blocking groove 34, both of which are communicated with the movable slot 31, and the pin hole 32 is communicated with the blocking groove 34.

[0035] In an optional embodiment: the movable ear buckle 6 comprises a movable seat 601, a top clamping hook 602, a positioning protrusion 604 and a blocking part 605, the movable seat 601 is inserted into the movable slot 31, the supporting pin 603 is fixedly connected on both sides of the movable seat 601, the supporting pin 603 is movably installed in the pin hole 32, the blocking part 605 is fixedly connected on the movable seat 601 and the supporting pin 603, the blocking part 605 is in contact with the inner wall of the blocking groove 34, the side of the movable seat 601 is in contact with the inner wall of the movable slot 31, and the top clamping hook 602 is fixedly connected on the side of the movable seat 601.

[0036] It should be noted that the supporting pin 603 cooperates with the pin hole 32 to form a support and rotation fulcrum of the movable ear buckle 6, so as to be able to install the movable seat 601, and the blocking part 605 cooperates with the blocking groove 34, so as to be able to limit the movable ear buckle 6, and to prevent the ear buckle from rotating excessively outward due to improper force when the ear buckle is opened, thereby preventing the ear buckle from being deformed or damaged, prolonging the service life of the ear buckle, and improving the practicability of the ear buckle. In addition, the blocking part 605 is in contact with the blocking groove 34, and the movable seat 601 is in contact with the inner wall of the movable slot 31, so as to improve the stability of the movable ear buckle 6 when rotating in the second tower part 3.

[0037] In an optional embodiment: two groups of positioning protrusions 604 are fixedly connected on the movable seat 601 in a symmetrical manner, and two groups of guide-in grooves 33 corresponding to the positioning protrusions 604 are symmetrically formed in the second tower part 3, and the positioning protrusions 604 are arranged in the guide-in grooves 33.

[0038] It should be noted that after the adapter card is installed, the positioning protrusions 604 are clamped in the guide-in grooves 33, so as to position and limit the movable ear buckle 6, and to improve the stability of the movable ear buckle 6 after installation. If the movable ear buckle 6 is accidentally loosened, the stability of the adapter card after installation can be improved. In addition, by manually pulling the movable ear buckle 6, the movable ear buckle 6 can overcome the resistance when rotating in the second tower part 3, so as to realize that the positioning protrusions 604 move out of the guide-in grooves 33, so as to open the ear buckle and loosen the adapter card.

[0039] In an optional embodiment: the first tower part 2 is provided with a mounting groove 25 and a positioning groove 22, the positioning groove 22 is communicated with the mounting groove 25, the fixed ear buckle 4 comprises a fixed seat 401 and a pressing block 402, the pressing block 402 is fixedly connected on the bottom of the pressing block 402, the pressing block 402 is tightly pressed in the positioning groove 22, and the fixed seat 401 is provided with an avoiding hole 403 for positioning the adapter card.

[0040] It should be noted that by cooperating with the positioning groove 22, the fixing seat 401 can be fixed after installation, and the adapter card can be installed in the plastic body 1 through the clearance hole 403.

[0041] In an optional embodiment: a guide groove 23 is provided in the first tower part 2, and the mounting groove 25 communicates with the guide groove 23. The locking elastic body 5 includes a spring body 501, an anti-detachment block 502 and a pressing block 503. The spring body 501 is inserted into the guide groove 23, and the anti-detachment block 502 is fixedly connected to the side of the fixing seat 401. An anti-detachment groove 24 is provided in the first tower part 2, and the anti-detachment groove 24 communicates with the mounting groove 25. The anti-detachment block 502 abuts against the anti-detachment groove 24, and the pressing block 503 is fixedly connected to the side of the spring body 501. An avoidance groove 21 communicating with the mounting groove 25 is provided in the first tower part 2, and the pressing block 503 is disposed in the avoidance groove 21. The top of the spring body 501 is disposed below the fixing seat 401.

[0042] It should be noted that the guide groove 23 serves to guide and position the snap-fit ​​elastic body 5, allowing it to be stably inserted into the first tower section 2. The anti-detachment block 502 abuts against the anti-detachment groove 24, preventing the spring piece 501 from falling out of the first tower section 2. The fixing seat 401 is installed on the top of the first tower section 2, preventing the top of the spring piece 501 from approaching the bottom of the fixing seat 401, thus limiting the position of the spring piece 501. The clamping block 503 presses against the side of the adapter card, achieving tight fixing of the adapter card. The snap-fit ​​elastic body 5 is formed by stamping and stretching, resulting in stable dimensions and a more secure snap-fit.

[0043] In an optional embodiment: a slot 101 is provided in the plastic body 1, and a terminal 7 is installed in the slot 101.

[0044] Example 2

[0045] Please see Figure 9 This utility model provides a technical solution:

[0046] Unlike Embodiment 1, the clamping block 503 has right-angled triangular piercing structures 504 on its left and right sides. The piercing structures 504 penetrate through both sides of the clamping block 503. The piercing structures 504 can improve the structural strength of the snap-fit ​​elastic body 5. The structure of the snap-fit ​​elastic body 5 in Embodiment 2 is not much different from that in Embodiment 1, except for the piercing direction. However, the mold size required for Embodiment 2 is larger than that required for Embodiment 1, the mold strength is better, it is less prone to damage, and it has more advantages in mass production.

[0047] It should be noted that by opening the right triangle piercing structure 504 on the pressing block 503, when the adapter card is inserted in the plastic body 1, the adapter card forces the pressing block 503 to be oriented plastic deformation, the piercing structure 504 can interrupt the stress transmission path, avoid the crack propagation caused by stress concentration, improve the bending resistance and elasticity of the buckle elastic body 5.

[0048] Although the embodiments of the present application have been shown and described, it should be understood by those ordinary skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, replacements and modifications can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirits of the present application, and the scope of the present application is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
