[0066] The following specific examples illustrate the implementation of this application. Those skilled in the art can easily understand other advantages and effects of this application from the content disclosed in this specification. This application can also be implemented or applied through other different specific embodiments, and various details in this specification can also be modified or changed based on different viewpoints and applications without departing from the spirit of this application. It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the following embodiments and features in the embodiments can be combined with each other.

[0067] It should be noted that the illustrations provided in the following embodiments are only schematic representations of the basic concept of this application. Therefore, the drawings only show the components related to this application and are not drawn according to the actual number, shape and size of the components in the actual implementation. In the actual implementation, the form, quantity and proportion of each component can be arbitrarily changed, and the layout of the components may also be more complex.

[0068] This application provides a connector signal transmission system and its wire-end connector, board-end connector, and connector assembly. The wire-end connector can be mated with the board-end connector, and the wire-end connector includes a wire-end mating detection conductor. The wire-end mating detection conductor can detect whether the mating of the terminal groups of the wire-end connector and the board-end connector is in place. In this way, the technical problem that the terminal groups of multiple connectors in a conventional connector assembly are prone to failure to transmit signals effectively due to improper mating can be solved. This allows the connector assembly of this application to transmit signals in a timely manner and achieve the expected function in electronic devices.

[0069] For the technical concepts of the connector signal transmission system and its wire-end connectors, board-end connectors and connector assemblies described in this application, please refer to the following: Figures 1 to 11 The following is an example description.

[0070] At Figures 1 to 11 The illustrated embodiment discloses a connector signal transmission system 1. The connector signal transmission system 1 includes a circuit board 11 and a connector assembly 12.

[0071] Regarding the circuit board 11, the circuit board 11 includes a signal transmission module 111, wherein the signal transmission module 111 can transmit a first side terminal signal and a second side terminal signal. It should be noted that the first side terminal signal and the second side terminal signal can be electrical signals or digital signals.

[0072] Regarding the connector assembly 12, the connector assembly 12 includes a board-end connector 121 and a line-end connector 122. In the above embodiment, the board-end connector 121 is disposed on the circuit board 11 to transmit signals. Correspondingly, the line-end connector 122 can be mated to the board-end connector 121 at a first connector mating side L1 and a second connector mating side L2, respectively. Thus, the circuit board 11 can transmit signals to the line-end connector 122 through the board-end connector 121. It should be noted that the first connector mating side L1 and the second connector mating side L2 are substantially different sides. Optionally, the first connector mating side L1 and the second connector mating side L2 are opposite sides; for example, the first connector mating side L1 is the left side, and the second connector mating side L2 is the right side.

[0073] At Figure 10 In the embodiment shown, the board-end connector 121 includes: a board-end signal terminal group 1211, a board-end docking detection component group 1212, and a board-end insulating core 1213.

[0074] The board-side signal terminal group 1211 includes a first side board-side signal terminal 12111 and a second side board-side signal terminal 12112. When the board-side connector 121 is disposed on the circuit board 11, the board-side signal terminal group 1211 is electrically connected to the circuit board 11. Furthermore, the first side board-side signal terminal 12111 and the second side board-side signal terminal 12112 each include a first side board-side signal terminal mating structure 121111 and a second side board-side signal terminal mating structure 121121, respectively.

[0075] The board-end docking detection component assembly 1212 includes a first side board-end docking detection component 12121 and a second side board-end docking detection component 12122. When the board-end connector 121 is disposed on the circuit board 11, the board-end docking detection component assembly 1212 is electrically connected to the circuit board 11. Furthermore, the first side board-end docking detection component 12121 and the second side board-end docking detection component 12122 each include a first side board-end docking detection component docking structure 121211 and a second side board-end docking detection component docking structure 121221.

[0076] For the board end insulating core 1213, the board end insulating core 1213 respectively connects to the board end signal terminal group 1211 and the board end docking detection component group 1212, so that the first side board end signal terminal docking structure 121111 and the second side board end signal terminal docking structure 121121 are respectively located on the first connector docking side L1 and the second connector docking side L2, and the first side board end docking detection component docking structure 121211 and the second side board end docking detection component docking structure 121221 are respectively located on the first connector docking side L1 and the second connector docking side L2.

[0077] At Figure 11 In the embodiment shown, the wire connector 122 includes: a wire signal terminal group 1221, a wire insulating core 1222, and a wire mating detection conductor 1223.

[0078] The line-end signal terminal group 1221 includes a first-side line-end signal terminal 12211 and a second-side line-end signal terminal 12212. Furthermore, the first-side line-end signal terminal 12211 and the second-side line-end signal terminal 12212 each include a first-side line-end signal terminal mating structure 122111 and a second-side line-end signal terminal mating structure 122121.

[0079] Regarding the wire end insulating core 1222, the wire end insulating core 1222 can be connected to the wire end signal terminal group 1221, so that the first side wire end signal terminal docking structure 122111 and the second side wire end signal terminal docking structure 122121 are respectively located on the first connector docking side L1 and the second connector docking side L2.

[0080] The wire end mating detection conductor 1223 includes a first-side wire end mating detection conductor mating structure 12231 and a second-side wire end mating detection conductor mating structure 12232. It should be noted that the wire end mating detection conductor 1223 can be coupled to the wire end insulating core 1222, and the wire end mating detection conductor 1223 extends to the first connector mating side L1 and the second connector mating side L2, respectively, so that the first-side wire end mating detection conductor mating structure 12231 and the second-side wire end mating detection conductor mating structure 12232 can be located at the first connector mating side L1 and the second connector mating side L2, respectively.

[0081] Optionally, the wire end mating detection conductor 1223 can be a metal shell or conductor capable of transmitting detection signals.

[0082] At Figure 2 and Figures 6 to 10 In the illustrated embodiment, the first side plate end signal terminal 12111 and the second side plate end signal terminal 12112 are guillotine type terminals; correspondingly, the first side line end signal terminal 12211 and the second side line end signal terminal 12212 are clamp-arm type terminals. However, it should be noted that in this application, the first side plate end signal terminal 12111 and the second side plate end signal terminal 12112 are not limited to guillotine type terminals, and the first side line end signal terminal 12211 and the second side line end signal terminal 12212 are not limited to clamp-arm type terminals.

[0083] During the process of the wire-end connector 122 mating with the board-end connector 121, the wire-end signal terminal group 1221 can mat with the board-end signal terminal group 1211 within a first time interval, such that the first side wire-end signal terminal mating structure 122111 (i.e., the first side wire-end signal terminal 12211) mates with the first side board-end signal terminal mating structure 121111 (i.e., the first side board-end signal terminal 12111) on the first connector mating side L1, and the second side wire-end signal terminal mating structure 122121 (i.e., the second side wire-end signal terminal 12212) mates with the second side board-end signal terminal mating structure 121121 (i.e., the second side board-end signal terminal 12112) on the second connector mating side L2, so as to... The wire end docking detection conductor 1223 can dock with the board end docking detection component group 1212 in a second time interval, so that the first side wire end docking detection conductor docking structure 12231 (i.e., the wire end docking detection conductor 1223) docks with the first side board end docking detection component docking structure 121211 (i.e., the first side board end docking detection component 12121) on the first connector docking side L1, and the second side wire end docking detection conductor docking structure 12232 (i.e., the wire end docking detection conductor 1223) docks with the second side board end docking detection component docking structure 121221 (i.e., the second side board end docking detection component 12122) on the second connector docking side L2.

[0084] It should be noted that the first time interval is earlier than the second time interval. Therefore, the time when the line-end signal terminal group 1221 connects to the board-end signal terminal group 1211 is earlier than the time when the line-end connection detection conductor 1223 connects to the board-end connection detection component group 1212. That is, when the line-end connection detection conductor 1223 connects to the board-end connection detection component group 1212, the line-end signal terminal group 1221 has already connected to the board-end signal terminal group 1211, so that the first-side line-end signal terminal 12211 has achieved connection with the first-side board-end signal terminal 12111, and the second-side line-end signal terminal 1221... 12 has achieved docking with the second side plate end signal terminal 12112. In this way, the signal transmission module 111 can stably transmit the first side terminal signal to the first side wire end signal terminal 12211 via the first side plate end signal terminal 12111, and the signal transmission module 111 can stably transmit the second side terminal signal to the second side wire end signal terminal 12212 via the second side plate end signal terminal 12112. This makes the signal transmission of the connector assembly 12 on various electronic devices meet expectations, thereby solving the technical problem that the terminal groups of multiple connectors to which the conventional connector assembly belongs are prone to failure to effectively transmit signals due to incomplete docking.

[0085] In the above embodiment, the board-end signal terminal group 1211 is located between the first side-side board-end docking detection member 12121 and the second side-side board-end docking detection member 12122, and the board-end signal terminal group 1211 is located between the first side-side board-end docking detection member 12121 and the second side-side board-end docking detection member 12122. Thus, the first time interval during which the line-end signal terminal group 1221 docks with the board-end signal terminal group 1211 is earlier than the second time interval during which the line-end docking detection conductor 1223 docks with the board-end docking detection member group 1212.

[0086] It should be noted that during the process of the wire end connector 122 merging with the board end connector 121, the signal transmission module 111 can detect whether the wire end merging detection conductor 1223 is merging with the board end merging detection component group 1212. If the wire end merging detection conductor 1223 is merging with the board end merging detection component group 1212, it means that the wire end connector 122 is properly merging with the board end connector 121, that is, the wire end signal terminal group 1221 is properly merging with the board end signal terminal group 1211. Then, the signal transmission module 111 transmits the first side terminal signal to the first side wire end signal terminal 12211 via the first side board end signal terminal 12111, and the signal transmission module 111 transmits the second side terminal signal to the second side wire end signal terminal 12212 via the second side board end signal terminal 12112.

[0087] Therefore, in the specific implementation of the connector signal transmission system 1, the signal transmission module 111 transmits the first side terminal signal and the second side terminal signal only after the wire end signal terminal group 1221 is properly connected to the board end signal terminal group 1211. In this way, the connector assembly 12 can stably transmit the first side terminal signal and the second side terminal signal, so that the signal transmission of the connector assembly 12 on various electronic devices meets expectations, thereby solving the technical problem that multiple connectors to which a conventional connector assembly belongs are prone to fail to effectively transmit signals due to improper connection.

[0088] At Figure 2 and Figures 4 to 10In the illustrated embodiment, the first side wire end docking detection conductor docking structure 12231 and the second side wire end docking detection conductor docking structure 12232 are plate-shaped structures. Correspondingly, the first side plate end docking detection component docking structure 121211 is a spring arm docking structure that can elastically dock with the first side wire end docking detection conductor docking structure 12231 (i.e., the wire end docking detection conductor 1223), and the second side plate end docking detection component docking structure 121221 is a spring arm docking structure. The second side end docking detection conductor docking structure 12232 (i.e., the wire end docking detection conductor 1223) is a spring arm docking structure, so that the wire end docking detection conductor 1223 (i.e., the first side end docking detection conductor docking structure 12231 and the second side end docking detection conductor docking structure 12232) docks with the first side plate end docking detection member 12121 and the second side plate end docking detection member 12122 as expected. However, it should be noted that in this application, the first side end docking detection conductor docking structure 12231 and the second side end docking detection conductor docking structure 12232 are not limited to plate-shaped structures, and the first side plate end docking detection member docking structure 121211 and the second side plate end docking detection member docking structure 121221 are not limited to spring arm docking structures.

[0089] At Figure 2 , Figure 5 and Figure 10 In the illustrated embodiment, the board-end connector 121 further includes a board-end holding member assembly 1214, which includes a first side board-end holding member 12141 and a second side board-end holding member 12142.
