In related technologies, when a connector is used to electrically connect a first object and a second object, for example, when the connector is a gasket, the connector contacts and connects to both the first and second objects respectively. When the electronic device vibrates, friction occurs between the connector and the first and second objects. Prolonged friction can easily cause the contact protrusions on the gasket to wear down, resulting in the failure of the electrical connection between the first and second objects.

[0017] It should be understood that the above general description and the following detailed description are exemplary and explanatory only, and are not intended to limit this disclosure. Attached Figure Description

[0024] Figure 6 This is a side view of a connector according to an exemplary embodiment. Detailed Implementation

[0025] Exemplary embodiments will now be described in detail, examples of which are illustrated in the accompanying drawings. When the following description relates to the drawings, unless otherwise indicated, the same numerals in different drawings denote the same or similar elements. The embodiments described in the following exemplary embodiments do not represent all embodiments consistent with this disclosure. Rather, they are merely examples of apparatuses and methods consistent with some aspects of this disclosure as detailed in the appended claims.

[0026] In the field of electronic equipment technology, in order to achieve electrical connection between different objects, it is usually necessary to use connectors for connection, such as using connectors to connect a first object and a second object.

[0027] During the long-term research process, the applicant discovered that, Figures 1-2 As shown, when a connector 30' is used to electrically connect the first object 10' and the second object (not shown in the figure), for example, when the connector 30' is a gasket, the connector 30' is positioned between the first object 10' and the second object, and the connector 30' is in contact with the first object 10' and the second object respectively. When the connector 30' is configured as a planar structure, and multiple protrusions 3111' are provided on the connector 30', point contact is achieved between the connector 30' and the first object 10' and the second object. When the electronic device vibrates, friction will occur between the connector 30' and the first object 10' and the second object. Prolonged friction can easily cause wear on the contact protrusions (i.e., protrusions 3111') on the connector 30', resulting in the failure of the electrical connection between the first object 10' and the second object, affecting the use of the electronic device.

[0028] To improve the connection effect and ensure the reliability of the electrical connection, this disclosure proposes a connector, an electrical connection assembly, and an electronic device, wherein the second connection portion is configured to be warped relative to the first connection portion, so that the second connection portion can maintain an elastic state when the connector is in contact, thereby improving the stability of the connection, reducing wear during the contact process between the connector and the first and second objects, and reducing the risk of electrical connection failure.

[0029] According to an exemplary embodiment, such as Figures 3-6 As shown, this embodiment of the disclosure provides a connector 30 for electrically connecting a first object 10 and a second object 20. For ease of understanding and explanation, this embodiment will be described below in conjunction with specific orientations. It is understood that in practical applications, the orientation of the connector 30, the first object 10, and the second object 20 may differ from the example in this embodiment, and the positions of the first object 10 and the second object 20 may also be interchanged. Figure 3 Taking the orientation shown as an example, the first object 10, the connector 30, and the second object 20 are arranged sequentially from top to bottom. The connector 30 is in contact with the first object 10 and the second object 20 respectively, and the connector 30 is conductive, thereby realizing the electrical connection between the first object 10 and the second object 20. The connector 30 can be made of a conductive metal material, such as steel, iron, copper, or other metals or alloys.

[0030] In this embodiment, the connector 30 includes a first connecting portion 31 and a second connecting portion 32, with the second connecting portion 32 connected to the first connecting portion 31. In its natural state, the second connecting portion 32 is warped relative to the first connecting portion 31 at a first angle; in its assembled state, the second connecting portion 32 is warped relative to the first connecting portion 31 at a second angle. Warping refers to a state where the first connecting portion 31 is located on a first plane, the second connecting portion 32 is located on a second plane, and there is an angle between the first and second planes. Furthermore, the first connecting portion 31 and the second connecting portion 32 are connected by a curved surface transition. The angle of warping of the second connecting portion 32 relative to the first connecting portion 31 refers to the angle (usually an acute angle) between the plane containing the second connecting portion 32 and the plane containing the first connecting portion 31, i.e., the angle between the first and second planes.

[0031] The first angle is greater than the second angle. That is, in the natural state, the warping of the second connecting part 32 is more obvious than that of the first connecting part 31. However, in the assembled state, the connector 30 is subjected to the compressive force between the first object 10 and the second object 20, and the second connecting part 32 undergoes a certain elastic deformation, making the warping of the second connecting part 32 more gradual than that of the first connecting part 31.

[0032] because Figure 1 and Figure 2 The connector 30' shown is typically in the form of a flat gasket. Therefore, during use, the two sides of the connector 30' are pressed by the first object 10' and the second object, respectively. When the electronic device vibrates or is bumped, the first object 10' and the second object move relative to each other, causing friction on the protrusions on the connector 30', resulting in wear. Prolonged wear of the protrusions leads to a reduction in their height. When the height decreases to a certain extent, the protrusions may fail to contact the first object 10' or the second object in some situations, resulting in poor contact between the connector 30' and the connected object, and even the risk of electrical connection failure. However, in the technical solution of this embodiment, the connector 30 is configured to include a warped second connecting portion 32, which is different from... Figure 1 The connector 30' is designed as a flat gasket, which ensures that the second connecting part 32 and the second object 20 maintain elastic contact at all times. The second connecting part 32 abuts against the second object 20 through the restoring force of elastic deformation. Even when the protrusions on the connector 30 that are used to contact the connected object wear, the second connecting part 32 will tilt upward under the action of the restoring force, thereby maintaining tight contact with the contacted object and improving contact stability and reliability. At the same time, since the contact between the two is elastic, there is a certain buffer between the connector 30 and the second object 20 when relative movement occurs, effectively preventing electrical connection failure caused by wear of the connector 30.

[0033] by Figure 3Taking the orientation shown as an example, in the natural state, the second connecting part 32 is warped downward relative to the first connecting part 31; in the assembled state, the first object 10 exerts pressure on the connector 30, the second connecting part 32 abuts against the second object 20 below, and the second connecting part 32 undergoes upward elastic deformation, which reduces the angle (i.e., the second angle) of the second connecting part 32 relative to the first connecting part 31. Under the action of elastic restoring force, the second connecting part 32 abuts against the second object 20, that is, the second connecting part 32 and the second object 20 are elastically connected, which is conducive to achieving a stable electrical connection effect of the connector 30.

[0034] In this embodiment of the present disclosure, by configuring the connector 30 to include a first connecting portion 31 and a second connecting portion 32, and by having an angle between the first connecting portion 31 and the second connecting portion 32, compared to the scheme where the connector is a flat gasket, the second connecting portion 32 can always maintain elastic contact with the object it is connected to, thereby increasing the contact force and improving the contact stability. At the same time, since the second connecting portion 32 and the second object 20 are in elastic contact, they also have a certain buffering effect when vibration occurs between them, thereby preventing the electrical connection from failing due to wear of the connector 30.

[0035] In some embodiments, both the first connecting portion 31 and the second connecting portion 32 are provided with contact portions. For example... Figures 3-6 As shown, the first connecting portion 31 is provided with a first contact portion 311, and the second connecting portion 32 is provided with a second contact portion 3201, and the first contact portion 311 and the second contact portion 3201 are located on the same side of the connecting member 30. Figure 3 Taking the orientation shown as an example, both the first contact portion 311 and the second contact portion 3201 are located on the bottom surface of the connector 30, that is, the first surface 301. In the assembled state, the contact area of ​​the first contact portion 311 and the contact area of ​​the second contact portion 3201 are located on the same plane to ensure that the contact areas of the first contact portion 311 and the second contact portion 3201 can both... Figure 3 The first object 10 shown (by way of example only) makes a contact connection to improve connection reliability. The first surface 301 of the connector 30 (i.e., Figure 3 The bottom surface shown in the figure. Figures 4-6 The top surface shown is provided with a first contact portion 311 and a second contact portion 3201. The first surface 301 is connected to one of the first object 10 and the second object 20, and the second surface 302 opposite to the first surface 301 is connected to the other of the first object 10 and the second object 20.

[0036] Among them, the first side of the connector 30 (i.e. Figure 6The first surface 301 shown is provided with a first contact portion 311 and a second contact portion 3201 to reduce the contact area between the connector 30 and the second object 20, and to avoid wear and tear on the connector 30 due to prolonged use, which could lead to electrical connection failure. The second side of the connector 30 opposite to the first side (i.e., the second side of the connector 30) Figure 6 The second surface 302 shown is fixedly connected to the first object 10, and the surface contact method is used to increase the connection area and improve the reliability of the connection.

[0037] In some embodiments, the second connecting portion 32 includes a first end portion 321 and a second end portion 322. The first end portion 321 and the second end portion 322 are opposite ends. The first end portion 321 is connected to the first connecting portion 31, and the second end portion 322 is warped in a direction away from the plane where the first connecting portion 31 is located. The second end portion 322 is provided with at least one second contact portion 3201, which is used to make contact with the second object 20. The overall thickness of the second end portion 322 and the second contact portion 3201 is a second thickness, and the overall thickness of the first connecting portion 31 and the first contact portion 311 is a first thickness. The first thickness is greater than or equal to the second thickness to ensure that even if the second connecting portion 32 is in a warped state relative to the first connecting portion 31, the second contact portion 3201 on the second end portion 322 can still make contact with the second object 20.

[0038] In one example, the first thickness is greater than the second thickness, thereby ensuring that even during the initial use phase (i.e., without wear), the second connection portion 32 can connect with, for example... Figure 3 The first object 10 in the middle maintains a flexible contact connection to improve the reliability of the electrical connection.

[0039] In another example, the first thickness is equal to the second thickness. During the initial use of the connector 30, the second contact portion 3201 does not show wear during this initial use phase. Figure 3Taking the structure shown as an example, after the second connecting portion 32 is compressed, since the first thickness is equal to the second thickness, the upper surfaces of the first connecting portion 31 and the second connecting portion 32 are approximately on the same plane, and the lower surfaces of the first connecting portion 31 and the second connecting portion 32 are also approximately on the same plane. However, as the usage time increases, the second contact portion 3201 of the second connecting portion 32 wears down, causing the second thickness to be less than the first thickness, and a gap will appear between the second contact portion 3201 and the first object 10. Since the second connecting portion 32 is in a state of being raised relative to the first connecting portion 31 in its natural state, in the assembled state, the second connecting portion 32 has a tendency to return to its natural state. Therefore, the second connecting portion 32 will have a force that raises relative to the first connecting portion 31 toward the first object 10. Under this force, the second connecting portion 32 warps toward the first object 10, compensating for the gap caused by the wear of the second contact portion 3201, so that the second connecting portion 32 and the first object 10 maintain an elastic contact connection, thereby improving the reliability of the electrical connection.

[0040] The second angle is related to the second thickness. Furthermore, the second angle is also related to parameters such as the material and dimensions of the connector 30. Those skilled in the art can select and set these parameters according to actual needs, and this embodiment does not impose excessive limitations in this regard. For example, if the material of the connector 30 is relatively hard, the second angle can be set smaller, i.e., the degree of warping is smaller, making processing easier. When the material of the connector 30 is relatively soft, the second angle can be set larger to avoid warping failure due to the soft material. Furthermore, when the second angle is large, the second thickness can be set larger; when the second angle is small, the second thickness can be set thinner to ensure effective contact.

[0041] In some embodiments, the connector 30 can be configured differently to ensure that the first thickness is greater than or equal to the second thickness. In one example, such as... Figure 6As shown, the thicknesses of the first connecting portion 31 and the second connecting portion 32 are equal, and the thickness of the first contact portion 311 is greater than or equal to the thickness of the second contact portion 3201, so that the overall first thickness of the first connecting portion 31 is greater than or equal to the overall second thickness of the second connecting portion 32. In another example, the thicknesses of the first contact portion 311 and the second contact portion 3201 are equal, and the thickness of the first connecting portion 31 is greater than or equal to the thickness of the second connecting portion 32. In yet another example, the thickness of the first connecting portion 31 is greater than or equal to the thickness of the second connecting portion 32, and the thickness of the first contact portion 311 is greater than or equal to the thickness of the second contact portion 3201. Of course, it is understood that those skilled in the art can adjust the thickness relationship between the first connecting portion 31 and the second connecting portion 32, as well as the thickness relationship between the first contact portion 311 and the second contact portion 3201, according to actual needs, as long as the first thickness is greater than or equal to the second thickness. This disclosure does not impose excessive limitations in this regard.

[0042] In some embodiments, the first contact portion 311 includes at least one continuous protrusion, the width of which may be slightly smaller than the width of the first connecting portion 31, ensuring that the first contact portion 311 has sufficient contact area to form a surface contact with the first object 10 or the second object 20. Figures 3-6 As shown, the continuous protrusions are used to enable the connector 30 to make surface contact with the second object 20 in the assembled state, thereby improving the connection reliability. Due to the continuous protrusions, the interference area is larger under the same vibration scenario, which can also reduce the wear of the connector 30 and reduce the risk of electrical connection failure.

[0043] In some embodiments, the continuous protrusions extend along the extending direction of the first connecting portion 31. Wherein, with Figures 4-5 As shown in the example, the first connecting portion 31 includes a first end and a second end. The first end of the first connecting portion 31 is away from the second connecting portion 32, and the second end is connected to the second connecting portion 32. A continuous protrusion extends from the first end to the second end. Exemplarily, the overall shape of the connector 30 can be a part of a ring, with the first connecting portion 31 being a segment of the ring. The continuous protrusion extends along the extending direction of the first connecting portion 31, that is, along the circumferential direction of the ring. Of course, it is understood that the connector and the first connecting portion 31 can also be configured in other shapes, such as an elliptical ring, a square ring, a long strip, a zigzag shape, etc. This disclosure does not impose excessive limitations on these aspects, and those skilled in the art can choose according to actual needs.

[0044] In some embodiments, the first contact portion 311 includes at least two continuous protrusions. The specific arrangement of the at least two continuous protrusions can be set by those skilled in the art according to actual needs. For example, the at least two continuous protrusions can be evenly arranged on the first connecting portion 31, or the shape, size, spacing and other parameters of different continuous protrusions can be adjusted according to actual needs.

[0045] In one example, the first contact portion 311 includes at least two continuous protrusions arranged along the extending direction of the first connecting portion 31. For example, Figures 4-5 As shown, at least two continuous protrusions are arranged sequentially from the first end to the second end. That is, the continuous protrusions are divided into multiple segments along the extension direction of the first connecting portion 31, and the gap between two adjacent continuous protrusions extends along the width direction of the first connecting portion 31.

[0046] In another example, the first contact portion 311 includes at least two continuous protrusions, each extending along the extending direction of the first connecting portion 31, and the at least two continuous protrusions are arranged along the width direction of the first connecting portion 31. Wherein, as... Figures 4-5 As shown, each continuous protrusion extends from the first end to the second end, and at least two continuous protrusions are arranged sequentially along the width direction of the first connecting portion 31. That is, at least two continuous protrusions are arranged in the form of concentric arcs, and the gap between two adjacent continuous protrusions extends along the extension direction of the first connecting portion 31.

[0047] Of course, it is understood that the arrangement of the continuous protrusions of the first contact portion 311 is not limited to the forms listed in the embodiments of this disclosure. Those skilled in the art can combine the above-mentioned arrangements as needed, or adopt other similar arrangements. This disclosure does not impose too many restrictions on this, and those skilled in the art can choose according to actual needs.

[0048] In some embodiments, the second contact portion 3201 includes a convex hull, which is used to achieve point contact in the assembled state. For example... Figures 3-6 As shown, the convex hull is used to make point contact with the second object 20 in the assembled state. While realizing electrical connection, due to the small contact area and the elastic contact between the second connecting part 32 and the second object 20, the wear of the second contact part 3201 can be greatly reduced, and the stability and reliability of the electrical connection of the connector 30 can be improved.

[0049] In some embodiments, the number of second contact portions 3201 may be one or more. In one example, the number of second contact portions 3201 is one. In another example, the number of second contact portions 3201 is multiple, and the multiple second contact portions 3201 are spaced apart to improve contact stability by providing multiple second contact portions 3201.

[0050] Taking the second contact portion 3201 as an example where a convex hull is provided. In one example, there is one convex hull, which is located at the second end 322. In another example, there are two convex hulls, which are arranged side by side at the second end 322. In yet another example, there can be multiple convex hulls, which are arranged along the extending direction of the second connecting portion 32. To ensure a good contact effect, the convex hulls closer to the second end 322 have a smaller height. Of course, it is understood that the number and arrangement of the convex hulls are not limited to the above-mentioned embodiments listed in this disclosure, and those skilled in the art can set them according to actual needs.

[0051] According to an exemplary embodiment, such as Figures 3-6 As shown, this disclosure provides an electrical connection assembly, which includes a first object 10, a second object 20, and a connector 30 as disclosed in the above embodiments. The first object 10 and the second object 20 are electrically connected by the connector 30. The connector 30 includes a first connecting portion 31 and a second connecting portion 32. The first connecting portion 31 is provided with a first contact portion 311, and the second connecting portion 32 is provided with a second contact portion 3201. The first contact portion 311 and the second contact portion 3201 are located on the same side of the connector 30. The second connecting portion 32 is connected to the first connecting portion 31. In its natural state, the second connecting portion 32 is warped relative to the first connecting portion 31 at a first angle. In its assembled state, the contact area of ​​the first contact portion 311 and the contact area of ​​the second contact portion 3201 are located on the same plane, and the second connecting portion is warped relative to the first connecting portion at a second angle, where the first angle is greater than the second angle.

[0052] In some embodiments, the electrical connection assembly further includes a fastener 40. For example... Figures 3-6 As shown, the connector 30 is connected between the first object 10 and the second object 20 by a fastener 40. The connector 30 includes a first surface 301 and a second surface 302 that are opposite to each other, wherein a first contact portion 311 and a second contact portion 3201 of the connector 30 are located on the first surface 301. In the assembled state, the second surface 302 is in contact with one of the surfaces of the first object 10 and the second object 20, the first contact portion 311 is in contact with the other surface of the two objects by the compressive force applied by the fastener 40, and the second contact portion 3201 is in contact with the other surface of the two objects by the restoring force of the second connecting portion 32 of the connector 30.

[0053] In one example, the second surface 302 of the connector 30 is welded to one of the first object 10 and the second object 20. For example, the second surface 302 can be brazed to the first object 10 to achieve a stable fixed connection between the connector 30 and the first object 10. The first surface 301 is provided with a first contact portion 311 and a second contact portion 3201 for abutting connection with the second object 20, achieving electrical connection while minimizing wear on the connector 30. Of course, it is understood that the connector 30 can also be configured such that the second surface 302 is welded to the second object 20 and the first surface 301 is abutting to the first object 10; this disclosure does not impose excessive limitations on this aspect.

[0054] According to an exemplary embodiment, such as Figures 3-6 As shown, this disclosure provides an electronic device, such as a mobile terminal, laptop computer, tablet computer, smartwatch, smart bracelet, etc. The electronic device includes the electrical connection components described in the above embodiments.

[0055] In some embodiments, the first object 10 of the electrical connection assembly includes a circuit board, the second object 20 includes at least one of a mid-frame and a rear housing, and the connector 30 of the electrical connection assembly includes a gasket. That is, the connector 30 of the electrical connection assembly is used to achieve a ground connection of the circuit board.

[0056] In one example, connector 30 is soldered to the circuit board. In another example, connector 30 is bonded to the circuit board with conductive adhesive. It is understood that the connection method between connector 30 and circuit board in this embodiment is not limited to the examples listed above, as long as a fixed connection and electrical connection can be achieved. Furthermore, the electrical connection components in this embodiment can also be applied to electrical connections in other locations and for other purposes, and this embodiment does not impose excessive limitations on this.
