Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of connector technology, and more specifically, it relates to a pin header and female header connector that prevents detachment. Background Technology
[0002] In electronic device connections, connectors are often used to make electrical connections between electronic components. For example, in circuit board assembly, in order to ensure that electrical signals can be stably transmitted between various electronic components, technicians often use pin headers and female headers to connect different circuit boards or electronic components. At this time, it is necessary to use connectors with reliable connection performance to ensure stable transmission of electrical signals and facilitate the normal operation of electronic devices.
[0003] However, in the actual operating environment of electronic equipment, external forces such as vibration and pulling often cause unstable connector connections, resulting in interruption or failure of electrical signal transmission. Traditional pin header and nut header connectors lack auxiliary locking structures, which leads to loosening between the pins and nuts during vibration or pulling due to the limitations of the connector's own structure. Since the internal space of electronic equipment is compact and the working environment is complex, the vibration generated by the continuous operation of the equipment can easily cause the connector to fall off, causing equipment failure, affecting the normal use of electronic equipment, causing production or work to stop, and increasing time and economic costs due to equipment failure repair, thereby reducing production efficiency and economic benefits.

[0024] The embodiments of this utility model will be described in further detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and examples. The following examples are for illustrative purposes only and should not be construed as limiting the scope of this utility model.
[0025] Example:
[0026] As attached Figure 1 To be continued Figure 4 As shown:
[0027] A pin header and nut header connector that prevents detachment includes a pin header 1, a plurality of pins 2 inside the pin header 1, a nut 3 installed at the bottom of the pin header 1, a plurality of slots 4 corresponding to the plurality of pins 2 at the top of the nut 3, and fixing blocks 5 on both sides of the pin header 1.
[0028] The bottom of the connector 3 is provided with a connecting frame 6, and both sides of the connecting frame 6 are provided with fixing frames 7. The fixing frames are provided with fixing components, including two sets of fixing rods 10 and two sets of fixing clamps 11. A fixing groove 8 is opened on one side of the fixing frame 7, and the fixing clamps 11 are located in the fixing groove 8. Through the cooperation of the fixing clamps 5 on both sides of the pin 1 and the fixing clamps 11 on the fixing frame 7 at the bottom of the connector 3, a stable locking structure can be formed after the pin 1 is inserted into the connector 3, so that the connector is not easy to fall off when subjected to vibration or pulling, thus improving the connection stability of the connector.
[0029] The fixing frame 7 has multiple sets of fixing holes, the fixing rod 10 passes through the fixing holes, one end of the fixing clamp rod 11 is sleeved on the fixing rod 10, and two sets of fixing clamp rods 11 are distributed opposite each other. The two sets of fixing clamp rods 11 are connected by a first spring. A release frame 12 is provided below the fixing component, and the release frame 12 is slidably connected to the fixing frame 7. With the help of the connection between the two sets of fixing clamp rods 11 by the first spring, the fixing clamp rod 11 can always maintain the clamping force on the fixing block 5, so that the connector is not easy to loosen during long-term use, thus improving the anti-drop reliability of the device.
[0030] Both sets of release brackets 12 have reset slots on one side, and each of the two sets of fixing slots 8 has a reset plate 14 corresponding to the two reset slots. The two sets of reset plates 14 are connected to the two sets of reset slots on one side by two sets of second springs respectively. With the structure of the reset plate 14 and the reset slot connected by the second spring, when the release block 15 is no longer pressed, the release bracket 12 can automatically reset under the action of the second spring, so that the fixing lever 11 relocks the fixing block 5, which improves the automation of the connector operation.
[0031] Each of the two sets of release brackets 12 has a release block 15 on one side, and each of the two sets of fixed brackets 7 has two through slots on one side corresponding to the two sets of release blocks 15. The user can press the release block 15 to drive the release bracket 12 to slide in the moving slot, so that the release rod pushes the fixed clamp rod 11 to rotate around the fixed rod 10, thereby releasing the fixed clamp rod 11 from the fixed clamp block 5, so that the pin header 1 can be smoothly pulled out from the pin header 3, which improves the convenience of connector disassembly and facilitates equipment maintenance.
[0032] Each of the two sets of release frames 12 is equipped with two sets of rollers 16 at the top, and each of the four sets of fixed levers 11 is equipped with a release lever at the bottom. By utilizing the rolling contact between the rollers 16 at the top of the release frame 12 and the release levers at the bottom of the fixed levers 11, the linear motion of the release frame 12 can be converted into the rotational motion of the fixed levers 11, making the unlocking process smoother.
[0033] Two sets of fixing blocks are provided in each of the two sets of fixing slots 8, and a moving slot is formed between the two sets of fixing blocks. The two sets of release brackets 12 are respectively locked in the two sets of moving slots. Through the cooperation between the release brackets 12 and the moving slots, the movement of the release brackets 12 can be guided and limited, so that the release brackets 12 are not easy to deviate during the movement, thus improving the stability of the connector structure.
[0034] The bottom of the female connector 3 is equipped with multiple sets of connector rods 17 corresponding to multiple sets of slots 4. The connector rods 17 are electrically connected to the slots 4. With the help of the electrical connection between the connector rods 17 at the bottom of the female connector 3 and the slots 4, the electrical signal transmitted by the pin 2 can be stably transmitted.
[0035] The specific usage and function of this embodiment are as follows:
[0036] When using this device, electrical connection is achieved by inserting the pins 2 on the pin header 1 into the slots 4 on the top of the female connector 3. During insertion, the retaining blocks 5 on both sides of the pin header 1 interact with the retaining rods 11 on the bottom retaining bracket 7 of the female connector 3 to form a mechanical locking structure, preventing the connector from separating under vibration or external force. When it is necessary to disassemble the connector, press the release block 15 on one side of the release bracket 12, causing the release bracket 12 to slide along the slider guide within the moving groove.
[0037] The roller 16 at the top of the release bracket 12 contacts the release rod at the bottom of the fixed clamp 11, converting the linear motion of the release bracket 12 into the rotational motion of the fixed clamp 11 around the fixed rod 10. This releases the fixed clamp 11 from the fixed block 5, allowing the pin header 1 to be easily pulled out of the nut 3. Releasing the release block 15 causes the reset plate 14 to push the release bracket 12 back into its moving slot under the action of the second spring, causing the fixed clamp 11 to re-lock the fixed block 5. The four sets of fixed clamps 11 are connected by the first spring, continuously providing clamping force to the fixed block 5, ensuring that the connector is not easily loosened during long-term use.
[0038] In terms of signal transmission, the connecting rod 17 at the bottom of the socket 3 is electrically connected to the slot 4, ensuring that the electrical signal transmitted by the pin 2 is transmitted stably and completing the electrical connection function.

Many modifications and variations will be apparent to those skilled in the art.
