[Background Technology]

[0002] In existing connectors, signal transmission is achieved using probes. Each probe includes a hollow tube, an upper needle tip, a lower needle tip, and an elastic element. The elastic element is housed within the hollow tube. The upper and lower needle tips, movable axially, are located at both ends of the tube and abut against the ends of the elastic element. The probe is installed into the mounting cavity of an insulating body, which contains a grounding layer. The outer wall of the tube of the probe used for grounding abuts against the grounding layer. The outer wall of the tube of the probe used for signal transmission is electrically insulated from the grounding layer. For the grounding probe, the signal transmission path is from the center of the end of the upper or lower needle tip, around the tube, and finally reaches the contact point between the tube and the grounding layer.

[0003] Both the needle and the syringe are machined parts, which increases the processing cost. In addition, the syringe has a fully enclosed cylindrical structure, which will result in a much lower impedance of the probe.

[0024] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0025] In this invention, the tubular component, upper contact, and lower contact are all formed by rolling metal plates. The rolling process replaces traditional turning, significantly reducing production costs and improving efficiency. Furthermore, by creating a non-closed structure with alternating circumferentially arranged connecting segments and openings in the tubular component, the capacitance of the signal terminals is effectively reduced, increasing their impedance and ensuring it falls within a preset impedance range. This avoids the low impedance caused by excessive capacitance in traditional fully enclosed tubular components, thus improving the overall signal transmission integrity and data transmission rate of the connector. Because the tubular component has openings and connecting strips, to prevent signal transmission path extension caused by misalignment between the upper and lower conductors and the connecting segments, the upper contact... The upper conductive portion of the component, the lower conductive portion of the lower contact component, and the connecting section of the pipe are aligned vertically, enabling the signal to be directly transmitted from the upper contact portion through the connecting section to the lower contact portion during transmission. This greatly shortens the signal transmission path. When the conductive terminal is a signal terminal, it can reduce dielectric loss and radiation loss during signal transmission, reduce amplitude attenuation and waveform distortion, and ensure the accuracy and reliability of data transmission. In addition, the shortened signal path can further reduce the possibility of the signal acting as an antenna to receive external interference. At the same time, shortening the return path can reduce electromagnetic radiation and sensitivity, and enhance anti-interference capability. When the conductive terminal is a grounding terminal, the short path reduces the length of the grounding loop, suppresses electromagnetic interference (EMI) and crosstalk, and improves equipment stability.

Detailed Implementation Methods

[0043] To facilitate a better understanding of the purpose, structure, features, and effects of this utility model, the present utility model will now be further described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0044] For ease of understanding, we define the Z-axis extension direction as the up-down direction (where the positive Z-axis direction is upward), the Y-axis extension direction as the left-right direction (where the positive Y-axis direction is to the right), and the X-axis extension direction as the front-back direction (where the positive X-axis direction is forward).

[0045] This utility model is an electronic device, such as Figure 1As shown, the device includes a circuit board 100, a connector 200, and a chip 300. The connector 200 is mounted downwards on the circuit board 100, and the chip 300 is mounted on the connector 200. The chip 300 is electrically connected to the circuit board 100 through the connector 200.

[0046] like Figure 1 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the connector 200 includes a base 10 and multiple conductive terminals 20. The base 10 includes an insulating body 101 and at least one grounding layer 102. Specifically, the grounding layer 102 is a metal plate. The insulating body 101 and the grounding layer 102 are integrated through an embedding process. The grounding layer 102 is embedded in the insulating body 101. The insulating body 101 has multiple receiving slots 1011 that penetrate the insulating body 101 vertically. The multiple receiving slots 1011 include multiple signal slots 1011a and multiple grounding slots 1011b. The structures of the grounding slots 1011b and the signal slots 1011a are partially different. Multiple grounding slots 1011b are arranged around the signal slots 1011a. The grounding layer 102 is partially exposed in each grounding slot 1011b, but not in each signal slot 1011a.

[0047] like Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 6 As shown, each of the receiving slots 1011 has at least two recesses 1012 on its inner wall. The recesses 1012 are arranged along the vertical direction of the receiving slot 1011 and penetrate at least one side of the base 10 in the vertical direction. Since the multiple receiving slots 1011 include multiple signal slots 1011a and multiple grounding slots 1011b, that is, both the signal slot 1011a and the grounding slot 1011b have at least two recesses 1012 on their inner walls, in this embodiment, the recesses corresponding to the signal slot 1011a... The groove 1012 penetrates the upper and lower sides of the base 10. The groove 1012 corresponding to the signal groove 1011a penetrates only one side of the base 10. Each receiving groove 1011 is provided with two grooves 1012, and the two grooves 1012 are arranged laterally opposite each other. For example, the two grooves 1012 are arranged left and right opposite each other. The groove 1012 corresponding to the grounding groove 1011b penetrates the lower side of the base 10. The grounding terminal 20G can be installed from the lower side of the base 10 into the corresponding grounding groove 1011b.

[0048] like Figure 2 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, the plurality of conductive terminals 20 include a plurality of signal terminals 20S and a plurality of ground terminals 20G. The structure of the signal terminals 20S is the same as that of the ground terminals 20G. Each signal terminal 20S is correspondingly housed in a signal slot 1011a. The signal terminals 20S can be installed from the upper or lower side of the base 10 into the corresponding signal slot 1011a. Each ground terminal 20G is correspondingly housed in a ground slot 1011b, and a grounding groove is provided around each signal terminal 20S. Multiple grounding terminals 20G are provided, which are electrically connected to the grounding layer 102 by contacting each other, while preventing the grounding layer 102 from being exposed to the signal slot 1011a, so that the signal terminal 20S is electrically isolated from the grounding layer 102. The lower ends of the signal terminal 20S and the lower ends of the grounding terminal 20G are electrically connected to the circuit board 100 by contacting each other, and the upper ends of the signal terminal 20S and the upper ends of the grounding terminal 20G are electrically connected to the chip 300 by contacting each other.

[0049] like Figure 6 , Figure 10 and Figure 11 As shown, the conductive terminal 20 includes a tube 1, an upper contact 2, a lower contact 3, and an elastic member 4. The tube 1, upper contact 2, and lower contact 3 are all formed by rolling metal plates. The tube 1 is a cylindrical structure extending longitudinally in the vertical direction. Both the upper and lower ends of the tube 1 have openings (not labeled). The elastic member 4 is installed inside the tube 1 through one of the openings. The upper contact 2 is installed to the tube 1 through the opening at the upper end of the tube 1. The lower contact 3 is installed to the tube 1 through the opening at the lower end of the tube 1. The upper contact 2 and lower contact 3 are connected to the elastic member 4. The upper and lower ends abut against each other. The upper end of the upper contact 2 abuts against the chip 300, and the lower end of the lower contact 3 abuts against the circuit board 100. The upper contact 2 and the lower contact 3 can move up and down relative to the tube 1. When both the upper contact 2 and the lower contact 3 are under pressure, the upper contact 2 and the lower contact 3 move relative to the tube 1 and move closer to each other, so that the elastic element 4 undergoes elastic deformation. When the pressure on the upper contact 2 and the lower contact 3 is removed, the elastic element 4 returns to its original state and drives the upper contact 2 and the lower contact 3 to move along the tube 1 to achieve reset.

[0050] like Figure 10 , Figure 11 and Figure 12As shown, the pipe fitting 1 includes an upper pipe body 11, a lower pipe body 12, at least two connecting sections 13, and at least two openings 14. The upper pipe body 11 and the lower pipe body 12 are both cylindrical structures. The upper and lower ends of each connecting section 13 are connected to the upper pipe body 11 and the lower pipe body 12. At least two connecting sections 13 and at least two openings 14 are arranged alternately along the circumference of the pipe fitting 1. In this embodiment, two connecting sections 13 and two openings 14 are provided. The two connecting sections 13 are distributed laterally on opposite sides of the pipe fitting 1. Of course, in other embodiments, the required number of connecting sections 13 and openings 14 can be provided according to the needs.

[0051] like Figure 10 , Figure 11 and Figure 12 As shown, a first gap 113 is formed between the two ends of the tube body along the curling direction at the upper tube body 11. The first gap 113 is arranged along the vertical direction of the upper tube body 11.

One of the first upper sliding grooves 111 is formed at the first gap 113. The upper tube body 11 is provided with an upper stop 112 at the upper end of the first upper sliding groove 111. In addition, the tube 1 also has at least one second upper sliding block 114 protruding into the upper tube body 11. In this embodiment, one first upper sliding groove 111 and one second upper sliding block 114 are each provided, and the second upper sliding block 114 is arranged laterally facing the first gap 113. Of course, in other embodiments, the required number of first upper sliding grooves 111 and second upper sliding blocks 114 can be provided according to the needs.

[0052] like Figure 10 , Figure 12 and Figure 13 As shown, a second gap 123 is formed between the two ends of the tube body along the curling direction at the lower tube body 12. The second gap 123 is arranged along the vertical direction of the lower tube body 12. The lower tube body 12 is provided with at least one first sliding groove 121, which is arranged along the vertical direction of the lower tube body 12. One of the first sliding grooves 121 is formed at the second gap 123. The lower tube body 12 is provided with a stop 122 at the lower end of the first sliding groove 121. In addition, the tube 1 also has at least one second sliding block 124 protruding into the lower tube body 12.

Of course, in other embodiments, the required number of first sliding grooves 121 and second sliding blocks 124 can be provided according to the needs.

[0053] like Figure 6 , Figure 10 and Figure 11 As shown, the end of the connecting segment 13 connected to the upper tube 11 is defined as the first end 131, and the end connected to the lower tube 12 is defined as the second end 132. Each connecting segment 13 is laterally arched outward, and the middle position of each connecting segment 13 in the vertical direction is the part with the largest lateral arch, so that the conductive terminal 20 has the largest lateral dimension at the middle position of the tube in the vertical direction, which facilitates the installation of the conductive terminal 20 into the corresponding receiving groove 1011. Each connecting segment 13 of the grounding terminal 20G is provided with an abutment portion 133, which protrudes laterally outward from the corresponding first end 131 and second end 132 and arches towards the grounding layer 102. The arching directions of the abutment portions 133 of the two connecting segments 13 are opposite, and the abutment portions 133 are stably abutted against the grounding layer 102 by elastically deforming inward.

[0054] like Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 6 As shown, during the process of installing the conductive terminal 20 into the corresponding receiving groove 1011, the two grooves 1012 corresponding to the receiving groove 1011 correspond to the two connecting segments 13 of the same conductive terminal 20. The grooves 1012 are used to guide the corresponding connecting segments 13, so that the slot of each groove 1012 faces the corresponding connecting segment 13 in the lateral direction. The connecting segment 13 is at least partially received in the corresponding groove 1012. In this embodiment, the connecting segment 13 is only partially received in the corresponding groove 1012.

[0055] like Figure 12 , Figure 13 and Figure 14 As shown, the fitting 1 has a connecting part at the upper end of the upper tube 11 opposite to the first gap 113 or at the lower end of the lower tube 12 opposite to the second gap 123. The connecting part is used to connect a strip 6, and multiple conductive terminals 20 are connected through the strip 6 and then synchronously installed into the corresponding receiving groove 1011, improving installation efficiency. Since the conductive terminals 20 are installed from below the base 10 into the corresponding receiving groove 1011, the connecting part is located at the lower end of the lower tube 12 opposite to the second gap 123. Of course, if the conductive terminals 20 are installed from above the base 10 into the corresponding receiving groove 1011, the connecting part is located at the upper end of the upper tube 11 opposite to the first gap 113.

[0056] like Figure 10 , Figure 11 and Figure 13 As shown, the upper contact 2 includes an upper guide portion 21 and at least one upper contact portion 22. The upper guide portion 21 is housed in the upper tube 11 and can move up and down relative to the upper tube 11. The upper guide portion 21 is a rolled structure formed by rolling a metal sheet, specifically a cylindrical structure. In this embodiment, there are two upper contact portions 22. The two upper contact portions 22 extend upward from the upper end of the upper guide portion 21 and are laterally distributed on opposite sides of the upper guide portion 21. Of course, in other embodiments, there may be one upper contact portion 22 or more than three upper contact portions 22.

[0057] like Figure 6 , Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, the upper guide portion 21 is provided with at least one second upper sliding groove 211, at least one first upper sliding block 23, and two upper lugs 213 protruding inward relative to the upper guide portion 21. In this embodiment, there is one second upper sliding groove 211 and one first upper sliding block 23. Of course, in other embodiments, there can be more than two second upper sliding grooves 211 and one first upper sliding block 23.

[0058] like Figure 9 , Figure 10 and Figure 11 As shown, the end of the upper contact portion 22 connected to the upper guide portion 21 is defined as the third end 221. When viewed from a lateral direction perpendicular to the vertical direction, the third end 221 of each upper contact portion 22 is at least partially aligned with the first end 131 of one of the connecting segments 13. Specifically, the upper contact portion 22 includes an upper contact arm 222, which is connected to the lower guide portion 31. When viewed from the vertical direction, the proportion of the third end 221 on the total circumference of the upper guide portion 21 is less than one-quarter, making the upper contact arm 222 elastic.

[0059] like Figure 10 , Figure 12 and Figure 13As shown, a third gap 212 is formed between the two ends of the upper contact member 2 along the curling direction at the upper guide portion 21. The third gap 212 is arranged along the vertical direction of the upper guide portion 21. The second upper sliding groove 211 is arranged along the vertical direction of the upper guide portion 21. One of the second upper sliding grooves 211 is formed at the third gap 212. The second upper slider 114 on the tube 1 protrudes into the second upper sliding groove 211. The first upper slider 23 protrudes into the first upper sliding groove 111 and is located below the upper stop member 112. The first upper slider 23 and the... The upper stop 112 abuts against each other; therefore, when the upper contact member 2 moves up and down relative to the upper tube 11, the first upper slider 23 slides up and down in the first upper sliding groove 111, and the second upper slider 114 slides up and down in the second upper sliding groove 211; in addition, the two upper lugs 213 on the upper guide part 21 are distributed on opposite sides of the upper guide part 21 in the lateral direction, and the two upper lugs 213 abut against the corresponding side of the upper end of the elastic member 4, and there is a height difference between the two upper lugs 213 in the vertical direction, which is defined as the first height difference H1.

[0060] like Figure 9 , Figure 10 and Figure 11 As shown, the lower contact 3 includes a lower guide portion 31 and at least one lower contact portion 32. The lower guide portion 31 is housed in the lower tube body 12 and can move up and down relative to the lower tube body 12. The lower guide portion 31 is a rolled structure formed by rolling a metal sheet, specifically a cylindrical structure. In this embodiment, there are two lower contact portions 32. The two lower contact portions 32 extend downward from the lower end of the lower guide portion 31 and are laterally distributed on opposite sides of the lower guide portion 31. Of course, in other embodiments, there may be one or more lower contact portions 32.

[0061] like Figure 6 , Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, the lower guide portion 31 is provided with at least one second sliding groove 311, at least one first sliding block 33, and two lower lugs 314 protruding inward relative to the lower guide portion 31. In this embodiment, there is one second sliding groove 311 and one first sliding block 33. Of course, in other embodiments, there may be more than two second sliding grooves 311 and one first sliding block 33.

[0062] like Figure 9 and Figure 10As shown, the end of the lower contact portion 32 connected to the lower guide portion 31 is defined as the fourth end 321; viewed from a lateral direction perpendicular to the vertical direction, the fourth end 321 of each lower contact portion 32 is at least partially aligned with the second end 132 of one of the connecting segments 13; specifically, the lower contact portion 32 includes a lower contact arm 322, which is connected to the lower guide portion 31. Viewed from the vertical direction, the proportion of the fourth end 321 on the total circumference of the lower guide portion 31 is less than one-quarter, making the lower contact arm 322 elastic.

[0063] like Figure 10 , Figure 12 and Figure 13 As shown, a fourth gap 312 is formed between the two ends of the lower contact member 3 along the curling direction at the lower guide portion 31. The fourth gap 312 is arranged along the vertical direction of the lower guide portion 31. The second sliding groove 311 is arranged along the vertical direction of the lower guide portion 31. One of the second sliding grooves 311 is formed at the fourth gap 312. The second sliding block 124 on the tube 1 protrudes into the second sliding groove 311. The first sliding block 33 protrudes into the first sliding groove 121 of the upper tube body 11 and is located above the lower stop member 122. 33 abuts against the lower stop 122; therefore, when the lower contact 3 moves up and down relative to the lower tube 12, the first lower slider 33 slides up and down in the first lower sliding groove 121, and the second lower slider 124 slides up and down in the second lower sliding groove 311; in addition, the two lower lugs 314 on the lower guide portion 31 are distributed on opposite sides of the lower guide portion 31 in the lateral direction, and the two lower lugs 314 abut against the corresponding side of the lower end of the elastic member 4, and there is a height difference between the two lower lugs 314 in the vertical direction, which is defined as the second height difference H2.

[0064] like Figure 6 and Figure 10 As shown, the conductive terminal 20 also includes a guide member 5, which is housed in the tube 1. The elastic member 4 is a helical spring, which is sleeved on the outside of the guide member 5. By providing an insulating layer on the outer surface of the guide member 5, or by making the guide member 5 with insulating material, unnecessary conductive paths are blocked, so that the signal terminal 20S can maintain stable impedance characteristics, while reducing the energy loss of high-frequency signals during transmission.

[0065] like Figure 6 , Figure 7 and Figure 8As shown, when the connector 200 is mated with the chip 300 and the circuit board 100, the upper contact 2 and the lower contact 3 are both pressed together and move toward each other in the vertical direction, causing the elastic member 4 to be compressed by force. Because there is a first height difference H1 between the two upper lugs 213 in the vertical direction, the upper contact 2 is tilted and abuts against the inner wall of the tube 1. Because there is a second height difference H2 between the two lower lugs 314 in the vertical direction, the lower contact 3 is tilted and abuts against the inner wall of the tube 1. The two upper contact arms 222 of the same conductive terminal 20 elastically abut against the same conductive sheet (not shown) of the chip 300, and the lower contact arm 322 of the same conductive terminal 20 elastically abuts against the same gasket (not shown) of the circuit board 100.

[0066] In summary, the conductive terminal 20, connector 200, and electronic device of this utility model have the following beneficial effects:

[0067] (1) The tube 1, the upper contact 2, and the lower contact 3 are all made of rolled metal plates. The rolling process replaces the original turning process, which greatly reduces the production cost and improves the production efficiency. At the same time, by making the tube 1 form a non-closed structure with the connecting segments 13 and the openings 14 arranged alternately in the circumferential direction, the capacitance of the signal terminal 20S itself can be effectively reduced and the impedance of the signal terminal 20S can be increased, so that it falls within the preset impedance range. This avoids the problem of the impedance being too low due to the excessive capacitance of the traditional fully enclosed tube 1, and improves the overall signal transmission integrity and data transmission rate of the connector 200. Since the tube 1 is provided with the openings 14 and the connecting strip, in order to avoid the signal transmission path being extended due to the misalignment of the upper guide part 21, the lower guide part 31 and the connecting segment 13, the upper contact 14 is made of rolled metal plates. The upper conductive part 21 of component 2, the lower conductive part 31 of the lower contact 3, and the connecting section 13 of the pipe component 1 are aligned vertically, enabling the signal to be directly transmitted from the upper contact 22 through the connecting section 13 to the lower contact 32 during transmission, thereby greatly shortening the signal transmission path. When the conductive terminal 20 is a signal terminal 20S, it can reduce the dielectric loss and radiation loss of the signal during transmission, reduce amplitude attenuation and waveform distortion, and ensure the accuracy and reliability of data transmission. In addition, the shortened signal path can further reduce the possibility of the signal receiving external interference as an antenna. At the same time, shortening the return path can reduce electromagnetic radiation and sensitivity, and enhance anti-interference capability. When the conductive terminal 20 is a grounding terminal 20G, the short path reduces the length of the grounding loop, suppresses electromagnetic interference (EMI) and crosstalk, and improves equipment stability.

[0068] (2) Two upper contact portions 22 are provided on the upper conductor portion 21, and the two upper contact portions 22 are distributed laterally on opposite sides of the upper conductor portion 21; two lower contact portions 32 are provided on the lower conductor portion 31, and the two lower contact portions 32 are distributed laterally on opposite sides of the lower conductor portion 31. At the same time, two connecting segments 13 are provided and distributed laterally on opposite sides of the pipe fitting 1. This structure makes the two upper contact portions 22 and the two lower contact portions 32 correspond to the two connecting segments 13 in a left-right symmetrical relationship, forming two parallel and symmetrical signal transmission paths, ensuring that the impedance of the two signal transmission paths is as close as possible, so that the current can be divided into two as evenly as possible and transmitted from the two signal transmission paths, effectively reducing the current load and contact resistance of a single contact portion, reducing the heat generation at the connection, and even in extreme cases, even if one of the upper contact portions 22 or the lower contact portion 32 has poor contact due to contamination, wear or other reasons, the other contact portion can still maintain the conduction of current.

[0069] (3) By controlling the proportion of the third end 221 of the upper contact portion 22 on the total circumference of the upper guide portion 21 to less than one-quarter, and at the same time controlling the proportion of the fourth end 321 of the lower contact portion 32 on the total circumference of the lower guide portion 31 to less than one-quarter, the upper contact arm 222 and the lower contact arm 322 can be given good elastic deformation capability, ensuring that the upper contact arm 222 and the chip 300 and the lower contact arm 322 and the circuit board 100 maintain stable contact, and also ensuring that there is sufficient structural strength between the upper contact arm 222 and the upper guide portion 21 and between the lower contact arm 322 and the lower guide portion 31, the risk of the upper contact arm 222 and the lower contact arm 322 breaking due to long-term pressure is effectively reduced, and a balance is formed between elastic contact stability and structural durability.

[0070] (4) One of the first upper sliding grooves 111 is directly disposed at the first gap 113 between the two ends of the upper tube 11 along the curling direction. This structure does not require material removal through machining to form the first upper sliding groove 111, which can preserve the structural integrity of the upper tube 11 to the greatest extent. This not only enhances the overall structural strength and deformation resistance of the upper tube 11, but also simplifies the processing flow, eliminates additional processes such as cutting and grinding, improves processing efficiency, and reduces material loss and manufacturing costs. The first upper slider 23 of the upper contact member 2 protrudes into the first upper sliding groove 111 and is located below the upper stop member 112 disposed at the upper end of the first upper sliding groove 111. The first upper slider 23 abuts against the upper stop 112 to prevent the upper contact 2 from detaching from the upper tube 11. The first upper groove 111 has a guiding and limiting function. When the upper guide part 21 moves up and down relative to the upper tube 11, the first upper slider 23 slides up and down synchronously along the first upper groove 111 to prevent the upper contact 2 from shifting or shaking during movement, thereby improving the movement stability of the upper contact 2. The first upper groove 111 restricts the rotation of the upper contact 2, ensuring that when viewed from a lateral direction perpendicular to the vertical direction, for one of the connecting segments 13, the third end 221 of the upper contact part 22 is always connected to the connecting segment. The first end 131 of 13 is at least partially aligned in the vertical direction to prevent lateral deflection of signal transmission between the upper contact portion 22, the connecting segment 13, and the grounding layer 102 due to structural misalignment. Correspondingly, one of the first sliding grooves 121 is directly disposed at the second gap 123 between the two ends of the lower tube body 12 along the curling direction. This structure does not require material removal through machining to form the first sliding groove 121, thus maximizing the preservation of the structural integrity of the lower tube body 12. This enhances the overall structural strength and deformation resistance of the lower tube body 12, simplifies the processing flow, eliminates additional processes such as cutting and grinding, improves processing efficiency, and reduces... This reduces material waste and manufacturing costs. The first lower slider 33 of the lower contact member 3 protrudes into the first lower sliding groove 121 and is located above the lower stop 122 provided at the lower end of the first lower sliding groove 121. By using the first lower slider 33 to abut against the lower stop 122, the lower contact member 3 is prevented from detaching from the lower tube body 12. The first lower sliding groove 121 has a guiding and limiting function. When the lower guide part 31 moves up and down relative to the lower tube body 12, the first lower slider 33 slides up and down synchronously along the first lower sliding groove 121, avoiding the lower contact member 3 from shifting or shaking during the movement, thereby improving the stability of the lower contact member 3 when it moves.The first sliding groove 121 can also restrict the rotation of the lower contact 3. Viewed from a lateral direction perpendicular to the vertical direction, for one of the connecting segments 13, the fourth end 321 of the lower contact 32 is always at least partially aligned with the second end 132 of the connecting segment 13 in the vertical direction, preventing lateral detours in signal transmission between the lower contact 32, the connecting segment 13, and the grounding layer 102 due to structural misalignment.

[0071] (5) Both the upper contact 2 and the lower contact 3 are formed by rolling metal plates to create a rolled structure. The upper contact 2 is provided with at least one second upper sliding groove 211, one of which is directly located at the third gap 212 between the two ends of the upper contact 2 along the rolling direction. This structure does not require material removal through machining to form the second upper sliding groove 211, thus maximizing the preservation of the structural integrity of the upper contact 2. This not only enhances the overall structural strength and deformation resistance of the upper contact 2, but also simplifies the processing flow, eliminating additional processes such as cutting and grinding, improving processing efficiency, and reducing material loss and manufacturing costs. The second upper slider 114 correspondingly provided on the upper tube 11 protrudes into the second upper sliding groove 211, and one of the second lower sliding grooves 311 is directly located at the fourth gap 312 between the two ends of the lower contact 3 along the rolling direction. This structure does not require material removal through machining to form the second lower sliding groove 311, thus maximizing the preservation of the structural integrity of the upper contact 2. This enhances the overall structural strength and deformation resistance of the upper contact 2, simplifies the processing flow, eliminates additional processes such as cutting and grinding, improves processing efficiency, and reduces material loss and manufacturing costs. The structure of the lower contact member 3 is largely preserved, which not only enhances the overall structural strength and deformation resistance of the lower contact member 3, but also simplifies the processing flow, eliminates additional processes such as cutting and grinding, improves processing efficiency, and reduces material consumption and manufacturing costs. When the upper contact member 2 moves up and down relative to the upper tube 11, the second upper slider 114 slides up and down synchronously along the second upper sliding groove 211, forming a cooperation with the structure of the first upper sliding groove 111 and the first upper slider 23, further improving the stability of the upper contact member 2 moving up and down relative to the tube 1. Similarly, the second lower slider 124 correspondingly provided on the lower tube 12 protrudes into the second lower sliding groove 311. When the lower contact member 3 moves up and down relative to the lower tube 12, the second lower slider 124 slides up and down synchronously along the second lower sliding groove 311, forming a cooperation with the structure of the first lower sliding groove 121 and the first lower slider 33, further improving the stability of the lower contact member 3 moving up and down relative to the tube 1.

[0072] (6) The function of the strip 6 is to connect the tubes 1 of the multiple conductive terminals 20 into a whole in a continuous arrangement. The tube 1 is a rolled structure formed by rolling metal sheet. The first gap 113 is formed at the upper tube 11 and the second gap 123 is formed at the lower tube 12 between the two ends along the rolling direction. In order to avoid the strip 6 interfering with the formation of the first gap 113 and the second gap 123 in the rolling operation of the tube 1, the connecting part is set at the upper end of the upper tube 1 opposite to the first gap 113 or at the lower end of the lower tube 12 opposite to the second gap 123. This can achieve the connection between the multiple tubes 1 by means of the strip 6, and at the same time ensure that the first gap 113 and the second gap 123 can be formed by rolling.

[0073] (7) The two opposite sides of the upper end of the elastic member 4 abut against the two upper lugs 213 of the upper guide portion 21, and the two upper lugs 213 have a first height difference H1 in the vertical direction. The elastic member 4 provides an inclined lateral force to the upper contact member 2, causing the upper contact member 2 to be in close contact with the upper tube body 11 at an incline, ensuring that the electrical signal can be stably transmitted from the upper contact member 2 to the upper tube body 11. Similarly, the two opposite sides of the lower end of the elastic member 4 abut against the two lower lugs 314 of the lower guide portion 31, and the two lower lugs 314 have a first height difference H1 in the vertical direction. The force exerted by the elastic element 4 provides an inclined lateral force to the lower contact element 3, causing the lower contact element 3 to be in close contact with the lower tube body 12 at an incline, ensuring that the electrical signal can be stably transmitted to the upper tube body 11 through the lower contact element 3; at the same time, the two upper lugs 213 abut against the opposite sides of the upper end of the elastic element 4, and the two lower lugs 314 abut against the opposite sides of the lower end of the elastic element 4, which can enhance the stability of the fit between the elastic element 4 and the upper contact element 2 and the lower contact element 3, effectively preventing the elastic element 4 from detaching from the upper lugs 213 or the lower lugs 314 under pressure, and further improving the reliability of the overall structure.

[0074] (8) The elastic element 4 is sleeved on the outside of the guide element 5. When the two ends of the elastic element 4 abut against the upper contact element 2 and the lower contact element 3 respectively, and the upper contact element 2 moves downward relative to the tube 1 and the lower contact element 3 moves upward relative to the tube 1, the elastic element 4 is prone to lateral buckling under pressure. At this time, the guide element 5 restricts the radial displacement of the elastic element 4, forcing the elastic element 4 to maintain axial compression movement, thereby significantly improving the structural stability of the elastic element 4 during compression and rebound, and avoiding the consistency of the elastic force output of the elastic element 4 due to lateral deformation. An insulating layer is provided on the outer surface of the guide element 5, which can effectively block unnecessary conductive paths, so that the conductive terminal 20 maintains stable resistance characteristics, and at the same time reduces the energy loss of high-frequency signals during transmission. Similarly, the guide element 5 is made of insulating material, which can also play the same role. By blocking unnecessary conductive paths, it reduces the energy loss during signal transmission and ensures the stability and efficiency of high-frequency signal transmission.

[0075] (9) The connecting segment 13 corresponding to the grounding terminal 20G directly abuts against the grounding layer 102, so that the electrical signal of the upper contact 2 can be transmitted to the upper conductor 21 through the upper contact 22, and then to the upper tube 11 through the upper conductor 21, and finally to the grounding layer 102 through the connecting segment 13. Similarly, the electrical signal of the lower contact 3 can be transmitted to the lower conductor 31 through the lower contact 32, and then to the lower tube 12 through the lower conductor 31, and finally to the grounding layer 102 through the same connecting segment 13. This structure realizes the common ground among multiple grounding terminals 20G, and also shortens the signal transmission path from the upper contact 2 to the grounding layer 102 and from the lower contact 3 to the grounding layer 102. The short path reduces the grounding loop length, suppresses electromagnetic interference (EMI) and crosstalk, and improves equipment stability.

[0076] (10) The abutting portion 133 of the connecting segment 13 protrudes laterally outward from the first end 131 and the second end 132. The abutting portion 133 can elastically deform inward to achieve stable contact with the grounding layer 102. The arching directions of the abutting portions 133 of the two connecting segments 13 are opposite, so that the two connecting segments 13 can provide opposite forces to each other, thereby improving the connection stability between the tube body and the abutting layer. In addition, during the installation of the conductive terminal 20, the first end 131 and the second end 132 of the connecting segment 13 can avoid interference and friction with the grounding layer 102, which facilitates the installation of the conductive terminal 20. Furthermore, the maximum lateral width of the upper tube body 11 and the lower tube body 12 is less than the maximum lateral width between the abutting portions 133 of the two connecting segments 13, which can avoid excessive interference and friction between the upper tube body 11 and the lower tube body 12 and the grounding layer 102 during the installation process.

[0077] (11) At least two grooves 1012 are provided on the inner wall of the receiving groove 1011. When the conductive terminal 20 is installed in the receiving groove 1011, the groove 1012 provides an installation guide for the connecting strip of the conductive terminal 20, so that the conductive terminal 20 can be installed in a preset direction, which can improve the installation efficiency.

[0078] The above detailed description is only a description of the preferred embodiment of this utility model and is not intended to limit the patent scope of this utility model. Therefore, all equivalent technical changes made using the content of this invention's specification and illustrations are included within the patent scope of this invention.
