Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of electronic device technology, and more specifically, to an electrical connector that can reduce the degree of interference when transmitting high-speed signals. Background Technology

[0002] In recent years, electrical connectors have been widely used in various electronic devices to transmit signals through multiple conductive terminals on the connector. However, with the special needs and development of electronic devices, the multiple conductive terminals of electrical connectors may also need to transmit high-speed signals. Currently, electrical connectors are easily affected by interference when transmitting high-speed signals (such as electromagnetic interference from the external environment or crosstalk interference coupled between multiple conductive terminals of the electrical connector), which makes the high-speed signals transmitted by the electrical connector prone to interference attenuation.

[0003] As can be seen from the above, how to solve the problem of electrical connectors being easily interfered with when transmitting high-speed signals is a problem that urgently needs to be solved by people in this technical field. Summary of the Invention

In particular, the proportional relationships and relative positions of the various elements in the drawings are for illustrative purposes only and do not represent the actual implementation of this application.

[0086] Please refer to the description of the embodiments disclosed in this application. Figures 1 to 10 .

[0087] An electrical connector 1 is provided that can be disposed in an electronic device, wherein the electrical connector 1 can provide signal transmission. Furthermore, the two sides of the electrical connector 1 can be defined as a main side L1 and a secondary side L2, respectively; and the two ends of the electrical connector 1 can be defined as a lap end E1 and a mating end E2, respectively.

[0088] At Figures 1 to 10 In the embodiment shown, the electrical connector 1 includes: a main-side conductive terminal group 11, a main-side conductive metal frame 12, a main-side insulating core seat 13, a primary-side conductive terminal group 14, a primary-side conductive metal frame 15, a primary-side insulating core seat 16, a bridging conductive plastic component 17, an electrical connector insulating shell 18, a main-side insulating support seat 191, and a primary-side insulating support seat 192.

[0089] Regarding the main-side conductive terminal group 11, the main-side conductive terminal group 11 has a first main-side grounded conductive terminal 111, a second main-side grounded conductive terminal 112, a main-side ungrounded conductive terminal 113, a main-side conductive terminal group overlap section 114, a main-side conductive terminal group extension section 115, and a main-side conductive terminal group mating section 116. The main-side conductive terminal group extension section 115 extends such that the main-side conductive terminal group overlap section 114 and the main-side conductive terminal group mating section 116 are respectively located at the electrical connector overlap end E1 and the electrical connector mating end E2. This allows the main-side conductive terminal group overlap section 114 to overlap with, for example, a conductive wire overlap member at the electrical connector overlap end E1, and also allows the main-side conductive terminal group mating section 116 to mat with, for example, a mating member of a mating electrical connector at the electrical connector mating end E2.

[0090] It should be noted that the first main-side grounding conductive terminal 111 and the second main-side grounding conductive terminal 112 can provide a grounding signal, and the number of the first main-side grounding conductive terminal 111 and the second main-side grounding conductive terminal 112 is not limited to one (that is, the number of the first main-side grounding conductive terminal 111 and the second main-side grounding conductive terminal 112 can be selected as multiple). The main-side ungrounded conductive terminal 113 can provide a non-grounded signal for transmitting, for example, a differential signal, and the number of the main-side ungrounded conductive terminal 113 is not limited to one (that is, the number of the main-side ungrounded conductive terminal 113 can be selected as multiple).

[0091] Regarding the main conductive metal frame 12, the main conductive metal frame 12 may be made of conductive metal and has a first main conductive metal frame grounding terminal abutment structure 121, a second main conductive metal frame grounding terminal abutment structure 122, a main conductive metal frame bridging structure 123 and a main conductive metal frame bridging structure 124.

[0092] Optionally, the first main-side conductive metal frame grounding terminal abutment structure 121 and the second main-side conductive metal frame grounding terminal abutment structure 122 are spring arm structures that can electrically abut the first main-side grounding conductive terminal 111 and the second main-side grounding conductive terminal 112, respectively.

[0093] Regarding the main-side insulating core seat 13, the main-side insulating core seat 13 may be made of insulating material and has a main-side conductive terminal group joining structure 131, a main-side conductive metal frame joining structure 132, and a main-side insulating core seat exposed structure 133. The main-side conductive terminal group joining structure 131 engages the main-side conductive terminal group 11, and the main-side conductive metal frame joining structure 132 engages the main-side conductive metal frame 12, so that the main-side conductive terminal group 11, the main-side conductive metal frame 12, and the main-side insulating core seat 13 constitute a main-side electrical connector sub-component P1. In the main-side electrical connector sub-component P1, the first main-side conductive metal frame grounding terminal abutment structure 121 and the second main-side conductive metal frame grounding terminal abutment structure 122 respectively abut against the first main-side grounding conductive terminal 111 and the second main-side grounding conductive terminal 122. The main conductive metal frame bridging structure 123 avoids the main non-grounded conductive terminal 113 and bridges the first main conductive metal frame grounding terminal abutment structure 121 and the second main conductive metal frame grounding terminal abutment structure 122, so that the main conductive metal frame 12 has an electrical connection with the first main grounded conductive terminal 111 and the second main grounded conductive terminal 112 to form a main grounded conductive terminal module M1, and the main non-grounded conductive terminal 113 has no electrical connection with the main grounded conductive terminal module M1.

[0094] It should be noted that the main-side grounding conductive terminal module M1 can transmit a shielded signal, such as a grounding signal. In the electrical connector 1, the main-side electrical connector sub-component P1 is located on the main side L1 of the electrical connector. Furthermore, in the main-side electrical connector sub-component P1, the main-side insulating core seat exposed structure 133 exposes the main-side conductive metal frame bridging structure 124, allowing the main-side conductive metal frame bridging structure 124 to be electrically abutted.

[0095] Regarding the secondary conductive terminal group 14, the secondary conductive terminal group 14 has a primary grounded conductive terminal 141, a secondary grounded conductive terminal 142, a primary ungrounded conductive terminal 143, a primary conductive terminal group extension 145, and a primary conductive terminal group mating section 146. The secondary conductive terminal group extension 145 extends such that the secondary conductive terminal group overlap section 144 and the secondary conductive terminal group mating section 146 are located at the electrical connector overlap end E1 and the electrical connector mating end E2, respectively. This allows the secondary conductive terminal group overlap section 144 to overlap with, for example, a conductive wire overlap member at the electrical connector overlap end E1, and also allows the secondary conductive terminal group mating section 146 to mat with, for example, a mating member of a mating electrical connector at the electrical connector mating end E2.

[0096] It should be noted that the primary grounding conductive terminal 141 and the secondary grounding conductive terminal 142 can provide a grounding signal, and the number of the primary grounding conductive terminal 141 and the secondary grounding conductive terminal 142 is not limited to one (that is, the number of the primary grounding conductive terminal 141 and the secondary grounding conductive terminal 142 can be selected as multiple). The secondary ungrounded conductive terminal 143 can provide a nongrounded signal for transmitting, for example, a differential signal, and the number of the secondary ungrounded conductive terminal 143 is not limited to one (that is, the number of the secondary ungrounded conductive terminal 143 can be selected as multiple).

[0097] Regarding the secondary conductive metal frame 15, the secondary conductive metal frame 15 may be made of conductive metal and has a primary conductive metal frame grounding terminal abutment structure 151, a secondary conductive metal frame grounding terminal abutment structure 152, a primary conductive metal frame bridging structure 153, and a primary conductive metal frame bridging structure 154.

[0098] Optionally, the first-side conductive metal frame grounding terminal abutment structure 151 and the second-side conductive metal frame grounding terminal abutment structure 152 are spring arm structures that can electrically abut the first-side grounding conductive terminal 141 and the second-side grounding conductive terminal 142, respectively.

[0099] Regarding the secondary insulating core holder 16, the secondary insulating core holder 16 may be made of insulating material and has a primary conductive terminal group joining structure 161, a primary conductive metal frame joining structure 162, and a primary insulating core holder exposed structure 163. The secondary conductive terminal group joining structure 161 engages the secondary conductive terminal group 14, and the secondary conductive metal frame joining structure 162 engages the secondary conductive metal frame 15, so that the secondary conductive terminal group 14, the secondary conductive metal frame 15, and the secondary insulating core holder 16 constitute a primary electrical connector sub-component P2. In the secondary electrical connector sub-component P2, the first secondary conductive metal frame grounding terminal abutment structure 151 and the second secondary conductive metal frame grounding terminal abutment structure 152 respectively abut against the first secondary grounding conductive terminal 141 and the second secondary conductive metal frame grounding terminal 152. The secondary conductive metal frame bridging structure 153, which avoids the secondary non-grounded conductive terminal 143, bridges the primary conductive metal frame grounding terminal abutment structure 151 and the secondary conductive metal frame grounding terminal abutment structure 152, so that the secondary conductive metal frame 153, the primary grounded conductive terminal 141, and the secondary grounded conductive terminal 142 have an electrical connection relationship to form a primary grounded conductive terminal module M2, and the secondary non-grounded conductive terminal 143 has no electrical connection relationship with the secondary grounded conductive terminal module M2.

[0100] It should be noted that the secondary grounding conductive terminal module M2 can transmit a shielded signal, such as a grounding signal. Additionally, in the electrical connector 1, the secondary electrical connector sub-component P2 is located on the secondary side L2 of the electrical connector. Furthermore, in the secondary electrical connector sub-component P2, the secondary insulating core seat exposed structure 163 exposes the secondary conductive metal frame bridging structure 154, allowing the secondary conductive metal frame bridging structure 154 to be electrically abutted.

[0101] Regarding the aforementioned bridging conductive plastic component 17, the bridging conductive plastic component 17 may be made of conductive plastic and has a bridging structure 171, a bridging wall structure 172, a main-side bridging conductive plastic component abutment structure 173, and a primary-side bridging conductive plastic component abutment structure 174.

[0102] Regarding the electrical connector insulating housing 18, the electrical connector insulating housing 18 may be made of insulating material and has a main-side electrical connector sub-component engagement guide structure 181, a primary-side electrical connector sub-component engagement guide structure 182, a bridging conductive plastic component engagement guide structure 183, a main-side electrical connector insulating housing abutment channel 184, and a primary-side electrical connector insulating housing abutment channel 185.

[0103] The primary electrical connector sub-component engagement guide structure 181, the secondary electrical connector sub-component engagement guide structure 182, and the bridging conductive plastic component engagement guide structure 183 can respectively guide the primary electrical connector sub-component P1, the secondary electrical connector sub-component P2, and the bridging conductive plastic component 17 from the electrical connector lap end E1 into the electrical connector insulating shell 18, so that the electrical connector insulating shell 18 engages the bridging conductive plastic component 17, the primary electrical connector sub-component P1, and the secondary electrical connector sub-component P2 to form an electrical connector component assembly body B.

[0104] In the electrical connector component assembly B, the primary insulating support 191 is located at the electrical connector lap end E1 to provide support for the primary conductive terminal group lap section 114, thereby maintaining the shape of the primary conductive terminal group lap section 114 and ensuring that the function of the primary conductive terminal group lap section 114 is as expected; and the secondary insulating support 192 is located at the electrical connector lap end E1 to provide support for the secondary conductive terminal group lap section 144, thereby maintaining the shape of the secondary conductive terminal group lap section 144 and ensuring that the function of the secondary conductive terminal group lap section 144 is as expected.

[0105] It should be noted that, optionally, the primary insulating support 191 and the secondary insulating support 192 can be integrally formed to simplify the manufacturing process. Alternatively, the electrical connector insulating housing 18, the primary insulating support 191, and the secondary insulating support 192 can be integrally formed to simplify the manufacturing process.

[0106] Furthermore, in the electrical connector component assembly B, the bridging conductive plastic component bridging structure 171 spans across the main side L1 and the secondary side L2 of the electrical connector, allowing the main side conductive metal frame bridging structure 124 to electrically abut against the main side bridging conductive plastic component abutting structure 173 via the main side electrical connector insulating shell abutting channel 184 through the electrical connector insulating shell 18, and allowing the secondary side conductive metal frame bridging structure 154 to pass through the electrical connector insulating shell via the secondary side electrical connector insulating shell abutting channel 185 through the electrical connector insulating shell. 18. The electrical contact structure 174 of the secondary side bridging conductive plastic component allows the primary side grounding conductive terminal module M1 and the secondary side grounding conductive terminal module M2 to be electrically connected and transmit shielded signals, such as grounding signals. This provides an electrically shielded environment for the signal transmission of the primary side non-grounded conductive terminal 113 and the secondary side non-grounded conductive terminal 143, thereby reducing interference to the electrical connector 1 when transmitting high-speed signals and optimizing the transmission quality of the electrical connector 1 for high-speed signals to meet the special needs and development of electronic devices.

[0107] The main conductive metal frame bridging structure 124 and the secondary conductive metal frame bridging structure 154 are elastic arm structures, which can respectively elastically abut against the main conductive plastic component abutting structure 173 and the secondary conductive plastic component abutting structure 174, so as to maintain the electrical connection between the main conductive metal frame bridging structure 124 and the main conductive plastic component abutting structure 173 and the electrical connection between the secondary conductive metal frame bridging structure 154 and the secondary conductive plastic component abutting structure 174.

[0108] Furthermore, optionally, in the electrical connector component assembly B, the bridging conductive plastic component wall structure 172 may extend between the primary electrical connector sub-component P1 and the secondary electrical connector sub-component P2, so that the bridging conductive plastic component wall structure 172 can provide an electrically shielded environment for signal transmission between the primary electrical connector sub-component P1 and the secondary electrical connector sub-component P2.

[0112] At Figure 4In the illustrated embodiment, in the electrical connector component assembly B, there is an electrical connector mating space S between the main conductive terminal group mating section 116 and the secondary conductive terminal group mating section 146. The electrical connector mating space S can provide a mating component for mating, for example, a mating electrical connector. The bridging conductive plastic component wall structure 172 avoids the electrical connector mating space S to avoid interfering with the mating component for mating, for example, a mating electrical connector, between the main conductive terminal group mating section 116 and the secondary conductive terminal group mating section 146.

[0113] Furthermore, in the electrical connector component assembly B, the first main-side grounding conductive terminal 111 and the second main-side grounding conductive terminal 112 are located on both sides of the main-side non-grounding conductive terminal 113, so that the first main-side grounding conductive terminal 111 and the second main-side grounding conductive terminal 112 can transmit shielded signals, such as grounding signals, on both sides of the main-side non-grounding conductive terminal 113, thereby providing a shielded environment for the signal transmission of the main-side non-grounding conductive terminal 113; and the first-side grounding conductive terminal 141 and the second-side grounding conductive terminal 142 are located on both sides of the secondary-side non-grounding conductive terminal 143, so that the first-side grounding conductive terminal 141 and the second-side grounding conductive terminal 142 can transmit shielded signals, such as grounding signals, on both sides of the secondary-side non-grounding conductive terminal 143, thereby providing a shielded environment for the signal transmission of the secondary-side non-grounding conductive terminal 143. In this way, interference to the electrical connector 1 when transmitting high-speed signals can be reduced, thereby optimizing the transmission quality of the electrical connector 1 for high-speed signals to meet the special needs and development of electronic devices.

[0114] It should be noted that, in the embodiments of this application, some of the aforementioned components may be omitted. For example, the electrical connector may optionally include only: a main-side conductive terminal group, a main-side conductive metal frame, a main-side insulating core seat, a secondary-side conductive terminal group, a secondary-side conductive metal frame, a secondary-side insulating core seat, a bridging conductive plastic component, and an insulating shell for the electrical connector. The main-side conductive terminal group has a first main-side grounded conductive terminal, a second main-side grounded conductive terminal, and a main-side ungrounded conductive terminal. The main-side conductive metal frame has a first main-side conductive metal frame grounded terminal abutment structure, a second main-side conductive metal frame grounded terminal abutment structure, a main-side conductive metal frame bridging structure, and a main-side conductive metal frame bridging structure. The main-side insulating core holder has a main-side conductive terminal group joining structure, a main-side conductive metal frame joining structure, and a main-side insulating core holder exposed structure. The main-side conductive terminal group joining structure joins the main-side conductive terminal group, while the main-side conductive metal frame joining structure joins the main-side conductive metal frame. Thus, the main-side conductive terminal group, the main-side conductive metal frame, and the main-side insulating core holder constitute a main-side electrical connector sub-component. This main-side electrical connector sub-component is located on the main side of the electrical connector. Within this sub-component, a first main-side conductive metal frame grounding terminal abutment structure and a second main-side conductive metal frame grounding terminal abutment structure respectively abut against... The first main-side grounding conductive terminal and the second main-side grounding conductive terminal are connected by a bridging structure of the main-side conductive metal frame, which avoids the main-side ungrounded conductive terminal and bridges the grounding terminal contact structure of the first main-side conductive metal frame and the grounding terminal contact structure of the second main-side conductive metal frame. This allows the main-side conductive metal frame to have an electrical connection with the first and second main-side grounding conductive terminals, forming a main-side grounding conductive terminal module. The main-side ungrounded conductive terminal is not electrically connected to the main-side grounding conductive terminal module, and the main-side insulating core seat exposes the main-side conductive metal frame bridging structure. The secondary-side conductive terminal group includes a first-side grounding conductive terminal, a second-side grounding conductive terminal, and a secondary-side ungrounded conductive terminal. The secondary-side conductive metal frame includes a grounding terminal contact structure of the first-side conductive metal frame, a grounding terminal contact structure of the second-side conductive metal frame, a bridging structure of the secondary-side conductive metal frame, and a bridging structure of the secondary-side conductive metal frame.The secondary insulating core holder has a secondary conductive terminal group joining structure, a secondary conductive metal frame joining structure, and a secondary insulating core holder exposed structure. The secondary conductive terminal group joining structure joins the secondary conductive terminal group, and the secondary conductive metal frame joining structure joins the secondary conductive metal frame. The secondary conductive terminal group, the secondary conductive metal frame, and the secondary insulating core holder constitute a secondary electrical connector sub-component. This secondary electrical connector sub-component is located on the secondary side of the electrical connector. Within this sub-component, a first secondary conductive metal frame grounding terminal abutment structure and a second secondary conductive metal frame grounding terminal abutment structure respectively abut against the first secondary conductive metal frame grounding terminal abutment structure. A primary-side grounding conductive terminal and a secondary-side grounding conductive terminal are connected, and the secondary-side conductive metal frame bridging structure avoids the secondary-side ungrounded conductive terminal and bridges the primary-side conductive metal frame grounding terminal abutment structure and the secondary-side conductive metal frame grounding terminal abutment structure. This allows the secondary-side conductive metal frame to have an electrical connection with the primary-side and secondary-side grounding conductive terminals, forming a secondary-side grounding conductive terminal module. The secondary-side ungrounded conductive terminal and the secondary-side grounding conductive terminal module are not electrically connected, and the secondary-side insulating core seat exposed structure exposes the secondary-side conductive metal frame bridging structure. The bridging conductive plastic component has a bridging conductive plastic component bridging structure, a bridging conductive plastic component wall structure, a primary-side bridging conductive plastic component abutment structure, and a secondary-side bridging conductive plastic component abutment structure. The insulating shell of the electrical connector is joined with a bridging conductive plastic component, a main-side electrical connector sub-component, and a secondary-side electrical connector sub-component to form an electrical connector component assembly. In the electrical connector component assembly, the bridging conductive plastic component bridging structure spans across the main side and the secondary side of the electrical connector, allowing the main-side bridging conductive plastic component abutting structure and the secondary-side bridging conductive plastic component abutting structure to abut against the main-side conductive metal frame bridging structure and the secondary-side conductive metal frame bridging structure, respectively. This allows the main-side grounding conductive terminal module and the secondary-side grounding conductive terminal module to have an electrical connection. Furthermore, the bridging conductive plastic component wall structure extends between the main-side electrical connector sub-component and the secondary-side electrical connector sub-component, providing shielding for both the main-side and secondary-side electrical connector sub-components.

[0115] In summary, the electrical connector of this application comprises a first main-side grounding conductive terminal, a second main-side grounding conductive terminal, a main-side non-grounding conductive terminal, a main-side conductive metal frame, a first-side grounding conductive terminal, a second-side grounding conductive terminal, a first-side non-grounding conductive terminal, a primary-side conductive metal frame, and a bridging conductive plastic component. The main-side conductive metal frame electrically bridges the first main-side grounding conductive terminal and the second main-side grounding conductive terminal, while the secondary-side conductive metal frame electrically bridges the first-side grounding conductive terminal and the second-side grounding conductive terminal. The bridging conductive plastic component electrically bridges the main-side conductive metal frame and the secondary-side conductive metal frame to transmit a shielded signal, such as a grounding signal, providing an electrically shielded environment for signal transmission between the main-side non-grounding conductive terminal and the secondary-side non-grounding conductive terminal. This effectively reduces interference to the electrical connector when transmitting high-speed signals, thereby optimizing the transmission quality of high-speed signals to meet the specific needs and development of electronic devices.
