Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of SATA connector technology, specifically to a snap-fit ​​SATA connector. Background Technology

[0002] SATA is an abbreviation for Serial ATA. It is a computer bus primarily used for data transfer between the motherboard and various storage devices, such as hard drives and optical disc drives. This is a completely different type of hard drive interface from Serial PATA, named for its serial data transmission method. SATA connections are used in both laptops and desktops. For laptops, external hard drives can be connected via SATA connectors. However, currently available SATA connectors for connecting external hard drives are directly inserted into the hard drive's connector. Over time, this not only easily accumulates dust inside the SATA connector, making it difficult to clean, but also easily leads to poor contact. Therefore, a crimp-type SATA connector is provided to solve these problems. Utility Model Content

[0003] To solve the problems mentioned above, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is: a snap-fit ​​SATA connector, which includes: a connector body, on both sides of the upper end of the connector body symmetrically provided with sliding grooves, a movable limiting plate slidably connected to the connector body through the sliding grooves, a shaft provided at the end of the connector body below the sliding grooves, a pressure plate rotatably connected to the connector body through the shaft, and a mating interface for connecting a hard drive connector provided between the connector body and the pressure plate.

[0004] As a preferred technical solution of this utility model, the movable limiting plate has a sliding hole at the inner end of the sliding groove, and a guide rod is fixedly connected inside the sliding groove.

[0005] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the movable limiting plate is slidably sleeved on the outside of the guide rod through a sliding hole, and a spring is sleeved on one end of the guide rod located inside the sliding groove.

[0006] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the top of the movable limiting plate is provided with a lever, and the top of the lever has an anti-slip stripe structure.

[0007] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the bottom of the movable limiting plate is fitted with the top of the pressure plate, and the connector body has a U-shaped structure.

[0008] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the connector body is provided with a contact end on one side inside the interface, and a connecting cable is provided at the tail of the connector body, the connecting cable being connected to the contact end.

[0009] The present invention has the following advantages: The movable limiting plate facilitates the locking and limiting of the pressure plate, or stops the limiting of the pressure plate, and can lift the pressure plate upward, thereby facilitating the mating interface on the connector body to be connected to the hard disk connector, or cleaning the mating interface of the connector body.

[0012] The technical solution of this utility model will now be clearly and completely described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. In the description of this utility model, it should be noted that the terms "center," "upper," "lower," "left," "right," "vertical," "horizontal," "inner," and "outer," etc., indicating the orientation or positional relationship, are based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings and are only for the convenience of describing this utility model and simplifying the description. They do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore should not be construed as a limitation 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.

[0013] In the description of this utility model, it should be noted that, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "installation," "connection," and "joining" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; and they can refer to the internal connection of two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model based on the specific circumstances.

[0014] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0015] Please refer to the following: Figures 1-3The present invention relates to a snap-fit ​​SATA connector, comprising: a connector body 1, wherein symmetrical grooves 2 are provided on both sides of the upper end of the connector body 1, a movable limiting plate 3 is slidably connected to the connector body 1 through the grooves 2, a shaft 4 is provided at the end of the connector body 1 below the grooves 2, a pressure plate 5 is rotatably connected to the connector body 1 through the shaft 4, and a mating interface 9 for connecting a hard drive connector is provided between the connector body 1 and the pressure plate 5.

[0016] Combination Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the movable limiting plate 3 has a sliding hole 6 at the inner end of the slide groove 2. A guide rod 7 is fixedly connected inside the slide groove 2. The guide rod 7 ensures that the movable limiting plate 3 can move stably. The movable limiting plate 3 is slidably sleeved on the outside of the guide rod 7 through the sliding hole 6. A spring 8 is sleeved on one end of the guide rod 7 inside the slide groove 2. A toggle block 12 is provided on the top of the movable limiting plate 3. The toggle block 12 facilitates manual movement of the movable limiting plate 3. The top of the toggle block 12 has an anti-slip stripe structure. The bottom of the movable limiting plate 3 is in contact with the top of the pressure plate 5. The connector body 1 has a U-shaped structure. A contact end 10 is provided on one side inside the interface 9 of the connector body 1. A connecting cable 11 is provided at the tail of the connector body 1. The connecting cable 11 is connected to the contact end 10.

[0017] Specifically, when connecting a solid-state drive, this utility model only requires pressing a finger on the lever 12 to move it towards the tail of the connector body 1 along the slide groove 2. Then, the lever 12, along with the movable limiting plate 3, moves towards the tail of the connector body 1, causing the movable limiting plate 3 to move off the pressure plate 5. This allows the pressure plate 5 to be lifted upwards, so that the mating interface 9 on the connector body 1 can be mated with the connector of the hard drive. Then, the lever 12 is released, and the movable limiting plate 3 is pushed by the spring force of the spring 8, causing the movable limiting plate 3 to move above the pressure plate 5, so that pressing the pressure plate 5 will engage the connector of the hard drive in the mating interface 9.

[0018] The above are merely preferred embodiments of this utility model. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various improvements and modifications without departing from the principle of this utility model, and these improvements and modifications should also be considered within the scope of protection of this utility model.

[0019] All other parts of this utility model that are not described in detail belong to the prior art, and therefore will not be described in detail here.

[0020] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this utility model, and are not intended to limit it. Although the utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications can still be made to the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or equivalent substitutions can be made to some or all of the technical features therein. Such modifications or substitutions do not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model.
