Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of electronic device technology, and more specifically, it relates to an integrated electronic device connection structure and a vehicle. Background Technology
[0002] In vehicle electronic components, connection structures are often used to electrically connect two electronic components. The connection structure includes a housing and electrode pins located inside the housing. The two ends of the electrode pins extend out of the housing. One end of the electrode pin is electrically connected to a circuit board placed inside the housing, and the other end is used to electrically connect to another electronic component.
[0003] In existing technologies, circuit boards are initially fixed to the housing using soldering. However, simple soldering cannot fully guarantee the stability of the connection. In practical applications, due to interference from various complex factors such as vibration, temperature changes, and humidity, circuit boards fixed solely by soldering are prone to loosening of solder joints and detachment, leading to unstable circuit connections and potentially even equipment malfunctions. Therefore, to enhance the reliability of the connection between the circuit board and the housing, additional secondary fixing methods such as potting are often required. The potting process itself is extremely cumbersome, requiring precise control of the amount and application location of the adhesive, and demanding a high-quality operating environment. Slight errors can result in uneven potting, affecting the fixing effect. Moreover, these additional steps significantly increase the complexity of the production process, extending the entire production cycle. From a cost perspective, the purchase costs of soldering materials and potting adhesives, as well as the increased labor costs due to the cumbersome operation, all contribute to the high price of the final product. This series of problems severely restricts the product's competitiveness in the market and hinders the improvement of production efficiency. Utility Model Content

[0031] Please refer to the following: Figures 1 to 3 The integrated electrical component connection structure and vehicle provided by this utility model will now be described.

In this utility model, the electronic component 3 is electrically connected to the connector 2. The conductive connection between the electronic component 3 and the electrical component is achieved using the connector 2, eliminating the need for a separate circuit board. Therefore, there is no need to fix the circuit board, reducing the cost associated with fixing the circuit board.
[0032] Compared with the prior art, the integrated electrical component connection structure provided by this utility model electrically connects the electronic component 3 and the connector 2, and then places the entire assembly into the mounting cavity. The connector 2 is electrically connected to the connector base 101. This utility model directly places the electronic component 3 and the connector 2 electrically connected within the mounting cavity of the connector base 101, improving the reliability and firmness of the connection with the connector base 101, and avoiding the influence of external environmental factors such as temperature and humidity. Since both the connector 2 and the electronic component 3 are located within the mounting cavity, the mounting cavity limits the connector 2, reducing the probability of loosening or failure of the connection between the connector 2 and the electronic component 3 due to vehicle vibration. The first and second connecting ends of the connector 2, located outside the mounting cavity, are electrically connected to the corresponding electrical components, thus realizing the electrical connection between the electronic component 3 and the electrical components.
[0033] Specifically, both the connector 2 and the electronic component 3 are embedded in the mounting cavity, increasing the contact area with the connector 101 and improving the stability and robustness of the connector 2 and the electronic component 3.

[0037] Optionally, the connector 101 includes two bodies, upper and lower, each with a fixing groove. When the two bodies are fastened together, the two fixing grooves align to form a mounting cavity. After the connector 2 is electrically connected to the electronic component 3, it is placed in one of the fixing grooves. The fastening of the two bodies seals the connector 2 and the electronic component 3. The connector 2 can be welded, glued, or snapped onto the connector 101 to achieve a fixed connection.
[0038] Optionally, the connector 102 is mated with the electrical component, so that the first connection end is in a closed environment and connected to the conductive parts on the electrical component, thereby reducing the influence of the external environment on the first connection end and ensuring a stable electrical connection between the first connection end and the electrical component.
[0039] In some embodiments, please refer to Figures 1 to 2 The housing 1 also includes a connecting buckle 4 connected to the connecting seat 101, which is used to engage with the interior components of the vehicle.
[0040] In this embodiment, a connecting buckle 4 is provided on the connecting seat 101.

This eliminates the need for external connecting components, simplifies the connection process, and improves connection efficiency.
[0041] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 3 The connector 2 includes a connector body 201, a connector pin 202, and a conductive leg 203. The connector body 201 is disposed in the mounting cavity and connected to the connector base 101. The connector body 201 is also electrically connected to the electronic component 3. The connector pin 202 is connected to the connector body 201 and extends into the connector 102. The first connection end is located at the connector pin 202. The conductive leg 203 is connected to the connector body 201 and extends into the receiving groove 1011. The second connection end is located at the conductive leg 203.
[0042] The connector 201 is electrically connected to the connector 101, the connector pin 202 extends into the connector 102, the first connection end of the connector pin 202 is electrically connected to an electrical device, the conductive leg 203 extends into the receiving groove 1011, the second connection end of the conductive leg 203 is electrically connected to another electrical device, thereby outputting the signal of the electronic component 3 to the outside.
[0043] Optionally, the connector 2 includes a plurality of mutually separated connecting pieces 2032, and the electronic component 3 electrically connects the plurality of connecting pieces 2032. At least two of the connecting pieces 2032 have a first connecting end.
[0044] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 3 The conductive support leg 203 includes a support piece 2031 and a connecting piece 2032 connected to the support piece 2031. The support piece 2031 is connected to the connector 201, and the connecting piece 2032 is located in the receiving groove 1011 and is parallel to the plate surface of the connector 101.
[0045] The support piece 2031 is connected to both the connecting piece 2032 and the connector 201. The connecting piece 2032 is parallel to the surface of the connector 101 and can fit against the electrical component, increasing the contact area and improving the stability of the conductive connection. The support piece 2031 provides support for the connecting piece 2032, preventing the connecting piece 2032 from deforming under stress after being connected to the electrical component.
[0046] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 1 The housing 1 also includes a limiting block 103 disposed in the receiving groove 1011, the limiting block 103 having a limiting groove, and the connecting piece 2032 being embedded in the limiting groove.
[0047] The connecting piece 2032 is embedded in the limiting groove, thereby limiting the position of the connecting piece 2032. This prevents the connecting piece 2032 from being displaced due to force after it is electrically connected to the electrical device, and also prevents the connection between the connecting piece 2032 and the electrical device from failing or loosening due to vehicle vibration, thus improving the reliability and stability of the connection.
[0048] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 1 The housing 1 also includes a guide cylinder 5 disposed in the receiving groove 1011. The guide cylinder 5 is connected to the connecting seat 101 and is used to accommodate the spring.
[0049] A spring is installed inside the guide cylinder 5, and the spring abuts against the vehicle body, which can prevent the housing 1 from making rigid contact with the vehicle body and reduce vibration. In addition, the guide cylinder 5 limits the spring to prevent the spring from deviating and causing interference between the housing 1 and the vehicle body.
[0050] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 1 The receiving groove 1011 is also provided with a reinforcing rib 7, and the two ends of the reinforcing rib 7 are respectively connected to the connecting seat 101 and the limiting block 103.
[0051] The reinforcing rib 7 not only increases the strength of the connecting seat 101, but also limits the position of the limiting block 103, preventing the limiting block 103 from shifting under the action of vibration, ensuring the stability of the connecting piece 2032 in the limiting groove, and improving the connection between the connecting piece 2032 and the electrical components.
[0052] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 1 The connecting piece 2032 has a first connecting hole 2033, and the limiting block 103 has a second connecting hole adapted to the first connecting hole 2033.
[0053] A locking element is inserted into the first connecting hole 2033 and the second connecting hole to achieve a conductive connection between the electrical component and the connecting piece 2032. In this embodiment, a locking element is used to achieve a conductive connection between the electrical component and the connecting piece 2032, and to fix the electrical component to the limiting block 103, ensuring the stability of the electrical component and the connecting piece 2032.
[0054] Optionally, the electrical component has mounting holes adapted to the first connecting hole 2033 and the second connecting hole, and a locking member is inserted into the mounting hole, the first connecting hole 2033, and the second connecting hole. Alternatively, the electrical component has a locking member, which is inserted into the first connecting hole 2033 and the second connecting hole.
[0055] Optionally, the locking element can be a threaded element or a snap-fit element.
[0056] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 1 In one possible implementation, the housing 1 further includes a reinforcing boss 6 disposed in the receiving groove 1011, the reinforcing boss 6 being connected to the connecting seat 101.
[0057] The reinforced boss 6 can increase the local strength of the connector 101, while avoiding the problem of excessive cost caused by increasing the overall thickness of the connector 101.
[0058] Based on the same inventive concept, this utility model also provides a vehicle. The vehicle includes the aforementioned integrated electrical component connection structure.

This utility model directly places the electronic component 3 and the connector 2 electrically connected within the mounting cavity of the connector base 101, improving the reliability and firmness of the connection with the connector base 101, and avoiding the influence of external environmental factors such as temperature and humidity. Since both the connector 2 and the electronic component 3 are located within the mounting cavity, the mounting cavity limits the connector 2, reducing the probability of loosening or failure of the connection between the connector 2 and the electronic component 3 due to vehicle vibration. The first and second connecting ends of the connector 2, located outside the mounting cavity, are electrically connected to the corresponding electrical components, achieving electrical connection between the electronic component 3 and the electrical components. In this utility model, the electronic component 3 and the connector 2 are electrically connected, and the connector 2 is used to achieve the conductive connection between the electronic component 3 and the electrical components, eliminating the need for a separate circuit board.
