Cavity Filter Connector Integrated Mounting Structure
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Conventional cavity filter connectors require a mounting slot, leading to space constraints, vibration issues due to decentralized structures, and high assembly costs, affecting communication quality.
Innovation Solution
A connector with an integrated structure comprising a housing, contact pin, insulating member, positioning pin, and transmission line, where the insulating member is fixedly configured in the housing, and the contact pin and transmission line are connected without the need for a mounting slot, using a mounting hole for fixation, reducing welding points and enhancing stability.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If a mounting slot is provided for mounting the connector, then the connector can be installed on the cavity filter, but the space for mounting is limited and the structure becomes more complex
Solution Approach 1:
The connector integrates the contact pin, insulating member, and positioning features into a single unified structure. The contact pin directly incorporates positioning holes and the insulating member is integrated within the same component, eliminating the need for separate mounting slots and reducing structural complexity while maintaining ease of installation
2Ease of manufacture
If the connector has a decentralized structure with multiple components, then the connector can be assembled from separate parts, but vibrations are easily generated and assembly tolerances accumulate affecting communication quality
Solution Approach 1:
The contact pin is designed as an integrated component that combines the conductive element, positioning features, and insulating member into one piece. This integration eliminates assembly tolerances between multiple components and prevents vibrations that occur in decentralized structures, while still allowing for straightforward manufacturing of the unified component
3Strength
If multiple welding points are used for connecting connector components, then the components can be securely connected, but the cost increases and communication quality deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The integrated contact pin structure eliminates the need for multiple welding points by combining all functional elements into a single component. The positioning holes and insulating member are built-in features rather than separate parts requiring welding, thereby reducing manufacturing cost while maintaining secure mechanical connection and improving communication quality
