AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Existing connector housings with trapezoidal guide rails and slots that do not extend the entire length of the housing suffer from reduced bonding strength, leading to unreliable engagement and movement between connector housings.

Method used

The use of engagement structures, including trapezoidal guide rails and alignment features, ensures immovable connection of connector housings in lateral, longitudinal, and height directions, even when the guide rails and slots are limited in length, by engaging with mating structures on the opposing housings.

Benefits of technology

This solution provides a reliable and stable connection between connector housings, preventing relative movement and enhancing bonding strength, even when the guide rails and slots are shorter than one-third of the housing length.

Abstract

To make it impossible for a first connector housing and a second connector housing that are assembled to each other to be displaced from each other.SOLUTION: A first connector housing (10) is provided, including: a top wall (10a); a first joint structure (11) formed on the top surface of the top wall and disposed at one longitudinal end of the first connector housing; and second joint structures (12, 13) formed on the top surface of the top wall and disposed at the other longitudinal end of the first connector housing. The first joint structure and the second joint structures are used for a mutual joint of a first matching structure and a second matching structure on the bottom surface of a second connector housing (20) and thereby mutually combining and connecting the first connector housing and the second connector housing in a stacked manner.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 2
