Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to a connector, and more particularly to a multi-angle composite snap-fit ​​video transmission connector. Background Technology

[0002] The LVDS video transmission cable is a core component connecting the motherboard and the display screen inside the device; it is commonly referred to as an LVDS cable or screen cable. Internally, it acts as a data highway, responsible for transmitting image signals from the motherboard to the LCD screen at high speed, stably, and with low loss.

[0003] Because LVDS video transmission lines have multiple transmission channels (typically 32 pins) and high transmission rates, the connection requirements for LVDS video transmission lines are extremely high. To overcome the defects of unstable connections, some manufacturers directly connect the LVDS transmission lines to the connector in a fixed manner. However, this results in a rigid structure and inability to freely adapt to different models of LCD screens. To overcome the problem of LVDS transmission lines not being able to freely adapt to different models of LCD screens, some manufacturers use connectors to connect the LCD screen and the LVDS transmission line. However, there are problems with inaccurate alignment between the male and female connectors, making installation inconvenient. Utility Model Content

[0004] Therefore, it is necessary to provide a multi-angle composite snap-fit ​​video transmission connector to address the shortcomings of existing technologies.

[0005] A multi-angle composite snap-fit ​​video transmission connector includes a male head and a female head, which can be freely disassembled and assembled. The male head includes a first shell body, a second shell body, and a first connecting head sandwiched between the first shell body and the second shell body. The first shell body and the second shell body are respectively provided with a first spring and a second spring. The female head includes a shell and a second connecting head installed inside the shell. The shell has two opposing limiting plates and a connecting plate connecting the two limiting plates at one end. Each limiting plate has a guide groove on its inner side. The guide groove wall has a first guide surface, a second guide surface, and a third guide surface at the top groove opening. The first guide surface and the second guide surface are opposite to each other. The third guide surface is located on one side between the first guide surface and the second guide surface. The first guide surface, the second guide surface, and the third guide surface together form a gradually narrowing inlet. When the male and female connectors are installed together, the first guide surface, the second guide surface, and the third guide surface of one limiting plate guide the first spring, and the first guide surface, the second guide surface, and the third guide surface of the other limiting plate guide the second spring.

[0006] In one embodiment, the two limiting plates and the connecting plate of the outer shell form a receiving groove. The outer shell is also provided with an insertion port.

In addition, the second locking protrusion is provided on the outer side of the second mating segment.

[0012] In one embodiment, the first shell body is further provided with a hook, which is connected to the inner edge of the first shell body. The second shell body is provided with a slot, which is located near the inner edge of the second shell body. During assembly, the hook of the first shell body cooperates with the slot for installation.

[0013] In one embodiment, the outer shell is further provided with an inner groove, which is disposed inside the outer shell. The insertion port connects the inner groove and the receiving groove. The second connector is disposed in the inner groove. When the female connector and the male connector are installed together, the top of the male connector is stored in the receiving groove.

The first connector 13 extends out from between the first shell body 11 and the second shell body 12, and the hook part 118 of the first shell body 11 is installed in conjunction with the locking groove 128.

[0027] The female connector 20 includes a housing 21 and a second connector 22 installed inside the housing 21. The housing 21 has two opposing limiting plates 23 and a connecting plate 24 connecting the two limiting plates 23 at one end. The two limiting plates 23 and the connecting plate 24 together form a receiving groove 25. The housing 21 also has an inner groove and an insertion port 26. The inner groove is located inside the housing 21, and the insertion port 26 connects the inner groove and the receiving groove 25. The second connector 22 is located in the inner groove.

[0028] Each of the limiting plates 23 has a guide groove 27 on its inner side, which extends to the top surface of the limiting plate 23. The guide groove 27 has a first guide surface 28, a second guide surface 29 and a third guide surface 210 near the top opening of the groove wall. The first guide surface 28 and the second guide surface 29 are arranged opposite to each other. The third guide surface 210 is located on one side between the first guide surface 28 and the second guide surface 29. The first guide surface 28, the second guide surface 29 and the third guide surface 210 together form a gradually narrowing inlet. In addition, the connecting plate 24 has a fourth guide surface 211 near the opening of the receiving groove 25. The insertion port 26 has a fifth inlet surface 218 opposite to the connecting plate 24. The limiting plate 23 has a positioning hole 213.

[0029] When the female connector 20 and male connector 10 are installed together, the male connector 10 is inserted into the female connector 20, and the top of the male connector 10 is housed in the receiving groove 25. The first connector 13 passes through the insertion port 26 and is installed in conjunction with the second connector 22. The first guide surface 28, the second guide surface 29, and the third guide surface 210 on a limiting plate 23 guide the first spring piece 113, which engages with the guide groove 27 of the limiting plate 23, and the first locking protrusion 118 engages with the positioning hole 213 of the limiting plate 23. The first guide surface 28, the second guide surface 29, and the third guide surface 210 on another limiting plate 23 guide the second spring piece 123, which engages with the guide groove 27 of the limiting plate 23, and the second locking protrusion 127 engages with the positioning hole 213 of the limiting plate 23. The fourth guide surface 211 and the fifth guide surface 218 guide the first shell body 11 and the second shell body 12 of the male head 10.

[0030] The beneficial effects of this multi-angle composite snap-fit ​​video transmission connector are as follows: A first spring 113 and a second spring 123 are provided on the male connector 10, and two opposing limiting plates 23 are provided on the female connector 20. Each limiting plate 23 has a guide groove 27 on its inner side. The guide groove 27 has a first guide surface 28, a second guide surface 29, and a third guide surface 210 near the top opening. When the male connector 10 and female connector 20 are installed together, the first guide surface 28, the second guide surface 29, and the third guide surface 210 of one limiting plate guide the first spring 113, while the first guide surface 28, the second guide surface 29, and the third guide surface 210 of the other limiting plate guide the second spring 123. This allows the male connector 10 to snap into the female connector 20 from different angles, facilitating installation and ensuring accurate alignment between the installed male connector 10 and female connector 20.

[0031] The technical features of the above embodiments can be combined in any way. For the sake of brevity, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above embodiments are described. However, as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features, they should be considered to be within the scope of this specification.
