Background technology
The general expansion slot (slot) that is provided with on the motherboard of computer is used so that computer can be installed expansion board (add-in card) according to user's demand.Yet now in the trend of volume miniaturization development, along with the expansion of computer function, the size of expansion board also increases thereupon, can interfere with each other when many expansion boards are set on motherboard.
In view of this, industry develops and a kind of interface exchanging structure, i.e. perpendicular card (riser card), and this perpendicular card is plugged in expansion slot on the motherboard along the direction perpendicular to motherboard, and has more than one switching slot.Expansion board (add-in card) can be coupled to the switching slot of perpendicular card (riser card) along the direction that is parallel to motherboard.So as to expansion board is electrically connected at motherboard.So, make that expansion board can be along the direction setting that is parallel to motherboard.
When the direction that is parallel to motherboard was respectively coupled to the switching slot of perpendicular card both sides, yet the baffle plate of being located at the expansion board of the relative both sides of perpendicular card can produce interference to desire with the expansion board more than two.Therefore, can use two perpendicular cards to be plugged in two expansion slots of the spacing of being separated by on the motherboard respectively usually.The baffle plate that makes two expansion boards only part overlaps, and the phenomenon of avoiding the assembly of two expansion boards to interfere, also thereby increased the cost of interface exchanging structure.
Moreover, along with the function of expansion board is become stronger day by day, must be able to dispose more and more many assemblies on the baffle plate of expansion board.Therefore, how can increase the area of configurable assembly on the baffle plate under the whole manufacturing cost of taking into account the interface exchanging structure is considered, real is one of present problem demanding prompt solution.
Summary of the invention
The invention provides a kind of interface adapter and butterfly-shaped interface exchanging structure (butterfly interface transfer structure), connector makes adapter both sides, interface have different slotting attached height, with the problem of avoiding generating assembly to interfere.
According to an aspect of the present invention, a kind of interface adapter (interface transfer card) is proposed, in order to be coupled to the expansion slot of a motherboard (mother board).The interface adapter comprises plate body, first connector (connector), second connector and distance member.Plate body has one group of electrical pin, first surface and second surface, and first connector is arranged at first surface, and second connector is arranged at second surface, and first connector and second connector are electrically connected at electrical pin respectively.Distance member is arranged between first connector and the plate body, and the top that makes first connector to the distance of first surface is different from the distance of the top of second connector to second surface.
According to another aspect of the invention, other proposes a kind of butterfly-shaped interface exchanging structure, comprises interface adapter, first expansion board and second expansion board.The interface adapter is in order to being coupled to the expansion slot of motherboard, and comprise plate body, first connector and, second connector and distance member.Plate body has one group of electrical pin, first surface and second surface, and first connector is arranged at first surface, and second connector is arranged at second surface, and first connector and second connector are electrically connected at electrical pin respectively.Distance member is arranged between first connector and the plate body, and the top that makes first connector to the distance of first surface is different from the distance of the top of second connector to second surface.First expansion board is coupled to first connector, and second expansion board is coupled to second connector.
Above-mentioned according to the interface adapter of the embodiment of the invention and butterfly-shaped interface exchanging structure, utilize the mode of distance member between first connector and plate body is set, make first expansion board and second expand to be stuck in and have different slotting attached height on the adapter of interface.So can reduce the width of first baffle plate and the parallel crossover of second baffle, avoid the phenomenon that assembly interferes on first baffle plate and the second baffle, and then increase the area of configuration component on first baffle plate and the second baffle.Moreover, in the embodiments of the invention, a distance member only need be set between first connector and plate body, need not change the specification of first connector and second connector, can be compatible with in the known butterfly-shaped interface exchanging structure, avoid because of changing the cost increase that the connector specification is caused.
