[0024] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to Figures 1-4.

[0025] Example 1

[0026] The present invention discloses a replaceable plug socket. Referring to Figures 1 and 2, the replaceable plug socket comprises a plug socket body 1, a conductive sheet 2 disposed within the plug socket body 1, an inserting port 3, and a retaining block 4. The retaining blocks 4 are disposed on opposite sides of the inserting port 3, opposite the conductive sheet 2. The conductive sheet 2 abuts and electrically connects with a circuit board 5. The plug socket body 1 is an insulating socket. The plug socket is plugged into a socket 6 of the circuit board 5. When a pin 7 is inserted into the inserting port 3, the pin 7 abuts against the conductive sheet 2 and the retaining block 4 on both sides, respectively.

[0027] During assembly, the plug socket body 1 is inserted into the socket 6, and then the pin 7 is aligned with the plug interface 3 and inserted, so that the pin 7 is pressed against the conductive sheet 2 under the action of the pressing block 4, and then the conductive sheet 2 is connected to the circuit board 5. The current flows from one pin 7 through the conductive sheet 2 to the circuit board 5 and then to the other pin 7 connected to the component, thus forming a closed loop and achieving the effect of circuit conduction. When the component needs to be removed, the component is directly pulled out to separate the pin 7 from the pressing block 4, and the disassembly is completed. This is conducive to improving the convenience of component removal and replacement, and the removal does not directly contact the circuit board 5, which is conducive to protecting the circuit board 5.

[0028] In this embodiment, the socket body 1 is a plastic socket.

[0029] 2 and 3 , in this embodiment, the socket body 1 and the pressing block 4 are integrally formed.

[0030] The pressing block 4 is integrally connected to the plug socket and is integrally injection-molded with the plug socket, which reduces the trouble of setting and installing the pressing block 4.

[0031] 2 and 3 , in this embodiment, a cavity 8 is left between the side of the pressing block 4 away from the conductive sheet 2 and the socket body 1 .

[0032] When the pin 7 is inserted, the pressing block 4 and the conductive sheet 2 cooperate to press the pin, so the pressing block 4 undergoes a certain deformation. The setting of the cavity 8 provides space for the pressing block 4 to deform, making it easier to insert the pin 7.

[0033] 2 and 3 , in this embodiment, a plug-in gap 9 is left between the conductive sheet 2 and the pressing block 4 for the pin 7 to be plugged in and pressed against. The plug-in gap 9 is connected to the plug interface 3. The width of the opening of the plug interface 3 is greater than the width of the plug-in gap 9. The pressing block 4 is provided with a guide surface 10, which extends obliquely from the plug interface 3 to the plug-in gap 9.

[0034] After aligning the pin 7 with the plug interface 3 and inserting it, continue to slide the pin 7 so that the bottom of the pin 7 slides along the guide surface 10 into the plug gap 9. The cooperation between the wide-mouth plug interface 3 and the guide surface 10 makes it easier for the pin 7 to align with the plug gap 9, which helps to reduce the impact caused by the misalignment of the pin 7 and the top of the plug socket body 1, and thus reduces deformation and damage, which helps to improve the convenience of component installation.

[0035] 2 and 3 , in this embodiment, the guide surface 10 is located on a side wall of the plug interface 3 perpendicular to the top of the plug socket body 1 , and the inclined section of the guide surface 10 extends from the bottom of the plug interface 3 to the plugging gap 9 .

[0036] The guide surface 10 is not completely inclined, which can reduce the opening area required for the plug interface 3, which is beneficial to reducing the difficulty of the bottom of the component covering the opening of the plug interface 3, causing dust to enter the plug interface 3, and thus causing the pin 7 to rub against the dust entering the plug gap 9 when it is pulled out.

[0037] 2 and 3 , in this embodiment, fixing wings 11 are provided on both sides of the plug socket body 1 , and the fixing wings 11 are fixedly connected to the circuit board 5 .

[0038] After the plug socket is inserted into the socket 6, the fixing wings 11 are fixedly connected to the circuit board 5, which is beneficial to improving the stability of the fixation of the plug socket body 1, so that it is not easy to shake the connection between the plug socket body 1 and the circuit board 5 when the pin 7 is pulled out or installed, thereby improving the stability of the installation of the plug socket body 1 and the conduction between the conductive piece 2 and the circuit board 5.

[0039] 2 and 3 , in this embodiment, the fixing wing 11 is a copper sheet.

[0040] When the fixing wings 11 are fixedly connected to the circuit board 5 , the socket body 1 can be fixed by direct welding. The welding method is more stable than bonding and is simpler than connecting with external objects.

[0041] 2 and 3 , in this embodiment, the conductive piece 2 is integrally connected to the fixing wing 11 on one side of the socket body 1 .

[0042] After the fixing wings 11 are welded to the circuit board 5 , the conductive connection between the conductive piece 2 and the circuit board 5 can be realized through the fixing wings 11 , and the conductive piece 2 and the circuit board 5 can be stably conductive, which is beneficial to improving the overall structural compactness of the plug socket.

[0043] 2 and 3 , in this embodiment, a connection hole 12 and a connection groove 13 are respectively provided on both sides of the plug socket body 1. The fixed wing 11 integrally connected to the conductive sheet 2 passes through the connection hole 12, and the other fixed wing 11 is plugged and fixed in the connection groove 13. The connection hole 12 has only two openings along the length direction of the fixed wing 11, and the connection groove 13 has only one opening along the length direction of the fixed wing 11.

[0044] The side walls of the connecting hole 12 and the connecting groove 13 can be used to limit the separation of the fixing wing 11 from the plug socket body 1, so that the movement limit of the fixing wing 11 can be limited by the structural characteristics of the plug socket body 1 itself, reducing the cumbersome fixing operation steps, thereby helping to reduce the labor cost of plug socket production.

[0045] 2 and 3 , in this embodiment, a card interface 14 is recessed in the sidewall of the plug port 3 , the top end of the conductive piece 2 is bent toward a side away from the guide surface 10 , and the card interface 14 matches the shape of the top end of the conductive piece 2 .

[0046] During injection molding, the top of the conductive piece 2 is wrapped in the plug socket body 1, so that the top of the conductive piece 2 is inserted into the card interface 14. The card interface 14 cooperates with the fixing wing 11 to fix the conductive piece 2, so that the conductive piece 2 is firmly fixed in the plug socket body 1, reducing the trouble of subsequent installation. Example

[0047] The difference between Example 2 and Example 1 lies in the difference in the abutting block.

[0048] 2 and 4 , in other embodiments, fixed wings 11 are provided on both sides of the plug socket body 1, and the fixed wings 11 are welded and fixed to the circuit board 5, one of the fixed wings 11 is integrally connected to the conductive sheet 2, and the other fixed wing 11 is integrally connected to the tightening block 4, and both fixed wings 11 pass through the side wall of the plug socket body 1, and the tightening block 4 is a hollow triangular shape, surrounded by a metal sheet, and one vertex of the tightening block 4 is facing the conductive sheet 2.

[0049] The clamping block 4 and the fixing wing 11 cooperate with each other to limit the separation of each other from the plug socket body 1, making the clamping block 4 and the fixing wing 11 easier to process and install. At the same time, the clamping block 4 surrounded by metal sheets is elastic. When the pin 7 is inserted, the clamping block 4 can clamp the pin 7 through its own elasticity, making it difficult for the clamping block 4 and the pin 7 to wear each other. At the same time, the plug socket body 1 has the function of bilateral conduction.

[0050] 2 and 4 , in other embodiments, the socket body 1 is hollow, and a distance is left between the top of the abutting block 4 and the hollow inner top wall of the socket body 1 .

[0051] The distance between the top of the pressing block 4 and the hollow top wall of the socket body 1 can prevent the pressing block 4 from being worn, which is beneficial to protecting the pressing block 4 formed by the metal sheet.

[0052] The above are all preferred embodiments of the present invention, and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of the present invention. Therefore, any equivalent changes made based on the structure, shape, and principle of the present invention should be included in the scope of protection of the present invention.
