Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of electrical connector technology, specifically a double-layer Type-C connector. Background Technology

[0002] A dual-layer Type-C connector is a connector with two Type-C interface layers. It adopts a dual-layer structure, which means that two Type-C female sockets are stacked together. It usually has a 24Pin+24Pin design that can be plugged in from both sides. It is equivalent to integrating two independent Type-C interfaces into one connector, which can effectively save internal space of the device and improve space utilization. It is suitable for electronic devices with strict space requirements.

[0003] Because it consists of two sets of female connectors stacked together and fixedly packaged as a whole, it is also soldered to the motherboard when connected to electronic devices. This makes it inconvenient to disassemble and repair, and the only way to repair it is to remove the entire connector from the motherboard. Utility Model Content

Detailed Implementation

[0037] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0038] Please see Figure 1-6 In this embodiment of the present invention, a double-layer Type-C connector includes a mounting base 1, a mounting inner sleeve 2, and a Type-C female connector 3. The mounting base 1 includes a base body 102, with an inner sleeve groove 103 on the front side of the base body 102 and a mating socket 107 embedded on the rear side of the inner sleeve groove 103. The mounting inner sleeve 2 includes a female connector sleeve 201, which is sleeved with the inner sleeve groove 103. The Type-C female connector 3 includes a female connector body 301, which is snapped into the inside of the female connector sleeve 201. A insert base 303 is fixedly snapped into the rear side of the female connector body 301, and a gold finger insert 304 is fixedly installed on the rear side of the insert base 303. The gold finger insert 304 is inserted into the mating socket 107.

[0039] Specifically, the base body 102 is embedded into the interface panel of the required electronic device and connected to the device motherboard. Two sets of Type-C female connectors 3 are taken out and clipped into the female connector sleeve 201. Two sets of mounting inner sleeves 2 are used to temporarily clamp and limit them. The mounting inner sleeves 2 holding the Type-C female connectors 3 are inserted into the inner sleeve slots 103. The inner sleeve slots 103 limit the two sets of symmetrical components of the Type-C female connectors 3. At the same time, the gold finger inserts 304 and the docking sockets 107 are plugged into each other to complete the connection of the data connection line. The Type-C female connectors 3 are modularly optimized, which is convenient for assembly during the production stage and has the ability to be disassembled. In the later maintenance work such as repair and cleaning, the Type-C female connectors 3 can be directly removed, which is extremely convenient.

[0040] Example 1

[0041] like Figure 4-6 As shown, in this embodiment, the inner sleeve 2 also includes a limiting slot 207 and an insert slot 208. The limiting slot 207 is formed on the front and rear edges of the inner wall of the female sleeve 201; the insert slot 208 is formed on the rear side of the female sleeve 201. The Type-C female socket 3 also includes a limiting groove 302 and a female socket inner core 305. The limiting groove 302 is fixedly sleeved on the front and rear edges of the side surface of the female socket body 301; the female socket inner core 305 is fixedly installed on the front surface of the insert base 303.

[0042] In this embodiment, when the Type-C female connector 3 is clamped by two sets of mounting inner sleeves 2, the limiting slot 302 and the limiting slot 207 are engaged with each other, and the insert base 303 and the insert slot 208 are clamped with each other, preventing the Type-C female connector 3 from sliding back and forth inside the female connector sleeve 201. The mounting inner sleeves 2 are used to fix the connector inside the inner sleeve slot 103 for relatively stable installation.

[0043] like Figure 3 As shown, in this embodiment, two sets of pin seats 108 are fixedly installed on the rear surface of the base body 102, and the pin seats 108 are electrically connected to the docking socket 107.

[0044] In practice, the entire device is soldered to the internal contacts of the electronic device via the pin 108, connecting the Type-C female connector 3 to the circuit of the device's motherboard.

[0045] Example 2

[0046] Based on Embodiment 1, in order to supplement the specific method of relatively fixing the Type-C female connector 3 inside the mounting base 1 by installing the inner sleeve 2, which was not mentioned in Embodiment 1,

[0047] like Figure 1-2 As shown in Figures 4-6, in this embodiment, the mounting base 1 further includes a base panel 101, a lever slot 104, a connecting plate slot 105, and an internal threaded sleeve 106. The base panel 101 is fixedly mounted on the front surface of the base body 102; the lever slot 104 is formed on the upper and lower edges of the base panel 101, and the lever slot 104 communicates with the internal sleeve slot 103; the connecting plate slot 105 is formed between the two sets of internal sleeve slots 103; the internal threaded sleeve 106 is fixedly mounted in the middle of the connecting plate slot 105; the mounting inner sleeve 2 also includes a connecting plate 20. 2. The actuating block 203, the threaded sleeve groove 204, the No. 1 bolt 205 and the No. 2 bolt 206, and the connecting plate 202 are fixedly installed between the two sets of female ferrule sleeves 201; the actuating block 203 is fixedly installed on the upper surface of the upper female ferrule sleeve 201 and the lower surface of the lower female ferrule sleeve 201; the threaded sleeve groove 204 is opened on the mating surface of the two sets of connecting plates 202; the No. 1 bolt 205 is snapped between the two sets of connecting plates 202, and the No. 1 bolt 205 is screwed into the internal threaded sleeve 106; the No. 2 bolt 206 is inserted and installed on one side of the actuating block 203.

[0048] In practice, bolt 206 is screwed into the base body 102, and the two sets of female socket sleeves 201 with Type-C female sockets 3 are inserted into the inner sleeve slots 103. The connecting plate 202 is inserted into the connecting plate slot 105, and the inner threaded sleeve 106 is sleeved with the threaded sleeve slot 204. Then, bolt 205 is screwed into the inner threaded sleeve 106 through the connecting plate 202 for tightening. At the same time, the toggle block 203 is inserted into the toggle block slot 104 and locked with bolt 206 to realize the installation of the overall structure. The base panel 101 protrudes from the interface panel surface of the electronic device, and the toggle block 203 protrudes from the upper and lower edges of the base panel 101. The user can pull out and install the inner sleeve 2 as a whole through the toggle block 203.

[0049] It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that this invention is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above, and that it can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential characteristics of this invention.
