[0026] The technical solution of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of this utility model.

Furthermore, the terms "first," "second," and "third" are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance.
[0028] like Figure 1-5 This is a schematic diagram of a preferred embodiment of the present invention for a vertical connector. In this embodiment, the vertical connector includes a base 1 and a circuit board 2. The base 1 is vertically fixed to the surface of the circuit board 2. A connecting cavity 11 is formed on the front surface of the base 1, and a cover plate 3 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the connecting cavity 11. Multiple connecting terminals 4 are arranged on the bottom surface of the base 1, passing through the base 1 and located within the connecting cavity 11. Sockets 12 are formed on both sides of the connecting cavity 11 on the top surface of the base 1, communicating with the connecting cavity 11. A clamping plate 5 is inserted into the socket 12, and the surface of the clamping plate 5 abuts against the surface of the cover plate 3. The cover plate 3 rotates within the connecting cavity 11, achieving the abutment function with the clamping plate 5. When the cover plate 3 and the clamping plate 5 abut against each other, the clamping plate 5 can be pressed by the cover plate 3, thereby achieving the purpose of contact between the bottom surface of the clamping plate 5 and the top of the plugged-in, realizing the locking function of the plugged-in being connected to the connecting cavity 11. A first locking block 13 is fixedly connected to the top surface of the base 1 at the opening of the connecting cavity 11, and a second locking block 31 is fixedly connected to both ends of the surface of the cover plate 3 at the opposite position of the first locking block 13. The locking function of the cover plate 3 is realized by the interlocking of the first locking block 13 and the second locking block 31, effectively preventing the connector cover plate 3 from loosening. Combined with the structural design of this utility model, by adopting the above structural design, its structural design is simple and can be used in a narrow space, with good adaptability, thereby effectively solving the problems raised in the background art.
[0029] In this embodiment, the front surface of the cover plate 3 is provided with a plurality of snap-fit positions 32, and the snap-fit positions 32 communicate with the connecting cavity 11. Furthermore, rotation limiting blocks 33 are fixedly connected at both ends below the surface of the cover plate 3.
[0030] In this embodiment, the two adjacent connection terminals 4 are staggered, which increases the connection stability between the connector and the circuit board 2.
[0031] In this embodiment, the connecting terminal 4 includes a terminal base 41, a first connecting part 42, and a second connecting part 43. The first connecting part 42 and the second connecting part 43 are fixedly connected to the top of the terminal base 41 respectively. The first connecting part 42 is located in front of the second connecting part 43. The first connecting part 42 passes through the base 1 and hooks into the snap-fit position 32. The rotation of the cover plate 3 is achieved by taking the first connecting part 42 hooking into the snap-fit position 32 as the center. At the same time, it can effectively prevent the cover plate 3 from falling off when rotating. The second connecting part 43 passes through the base 1 and is connected to the connecting cavity 11.
[0032] In this embodiment, grounding plates 6 are connected to both sides of the bottom surface of the base 1, and the connector is fixedly connected to the circuit board 2 by soldering through the grounding plates 6.
[0033] In this embodiment, the clamping plate 5 includes a connector 51 and a clamping part 52. The connector 51 is connected to the connector 12. The clamping part 52 is fixedly connected to one end of the connector 51. The top surface of the clamping part 52 abuts against the bottom surface of the cover plate 3, and the bottom of the clamping part 52 is locked to the surface of the connector.
[0034] In this embodiment, a fixing block 53 is fixedly connected to the top surface of the connector 51. The top surface of the fixing block 53 abuts against the rotation limiting block 33 to prevent damage to the connector surface at the bottom of the pressing part 52 in the pressing plate 5 during the pressing process of the connector due to excessive flipping when the cover plate 3 flips towards the connecting cavity 11.
[0035] The above description, in conjunction with specific embodiments, provides a further detailed explanation of the present utility model. It should not be construed that the specific implementation of the present utility model is limited to these descriptions. For those skilled in the art, several simple deductions or substitutions can be made without departing from the concept of the present utility model, and all such deductions or substitutions should be considered to fall within the scope of protection defined by the claims submitted by the present utility model.
