Specific embodiment
Structural principle and working principle of the invention are described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawing:
It please refers to shown in Fig. 1 and Fig. 2, is a kind of electric signal transmission extension apparatus disclosed by first embodiment of the invention
100, include one first adapter 110, signal coupling card 130 and one second adapter 120.
As shown in Figure 1 and Figure 2, the first adapter 110 have the electrical slot 114 of a first circuit board 112, one first with
And one first electric connector 116.
First electrical slot 114 is set to the one side of first circuit board 112, and the first electric connector 116 is set to first
A side of circuit board 112, and the first electrical slot 114 is electrically connected at by route provided by first circuit board 112.
Above-mentioned first electrical slot 114 can be but be not limited to PCI, AGP, PCIE, ATA or SATA slot, be also possible to different rule
The combination of lattice slot;The foot position of first electric connector 116 is then the communications protocol for cooperating the first electrical slot 114, and first is electrically connected
Connecing device 116 can be the terminal assembly for being independently disposed to first circuit board 112, be also possible to a bayonet connector (edge
Connector is commonly called as golden finger connector).First electric connector 116 is used to be electrically connected at the home slot of a motherboard 200
210 (applicable communications protocol is identical as the first electrical slot 114).
As shown in Fig. 2, signal coupling card 130 has a tertiary circuit plate 132, one second electric connector 134 and one the
Three electric connectors 136.Tertiary circuit plate 132 is a printed circuit board, and characteristic is that can provide support effect with certain rigidity
Fruit, and tertiary circuit plate 132 has the signal circuit of more metal layers composition, can provide excellent signal transmission effect
Fruit, the degree for dropping low signal attenuation or being interfered.Second electric connector 134 and third electric connector 136 are respectively arranged at
The opposite dual side-edge of tertiary circuit plate 132, and the second electric connector 134 is electrically connected at third electricity by tertiary circuit plate 132
Connector 136.Wherein, the second electric connector 134 is for being electrically connected at the first electrical slot 114.Similarly, the second electrical connection
Device 134 and third electric connector 136 can be the terminal assembly for being independently disposed to signal coupling card 130, be also possible to card edge
Connector.
As shown in Fig. 2, the second adapter 120 is with the electrical slot 124 of a second circuit board 122, one second and at least
One extending slot 126.Second electrical slot 124 and extending slot 126 are respectively arranged at opposite two sides of second circuit board 122
Face;Third electric connector 136 is for being plugged in the second electrical slot 124, and extending slot 126 is electrically connected at second and electrically inserts
Slot 124.
The quantity of extending slot 126 can be one or more, such as the electric signal transmission of the present embodiment extends dress
Setting 100 has two extending slots 126, meanwhile, two expansion slots 126 can be same size, it is also possible to different size,
For example, then two expansion slots 126 are same sizes when the home slot 210 of motherboard 200 only has single specification;Motherboard 200
Home slot 210 when being that the slots of two different communications protocols combines, then two expansion slots 126 can correspond with two it is logical
Interrogate the specification of agreement.Communications protocol above-mentioned is including but not limited to PCI, AGP, PCIE, ATA or SATA.
As shown in Figure 1, by said combination, the first circuit board 112 of the first adapter 110 is parallel to the second adapter
120 second circuit board 122, and the tertiary circuit plate 132 of signal coupling card 130 is perpendicular to first circuit board 112 and the second electricity
Road plate 122.
It, can between the third electrical property slot of 116 to the second adapter 120 of the first electric connector of first adapter 110
Signaling path is formed, so that the first electric connector 116 is to can reach extension signaling path between extending slot 126
Effect.
Expansion slot 126 can allow different expansion board grafting, use the connection between the expansion board made and motherboard 200
Mode can be extended through electric signal transmission extension apparatus 100.In particular, original expansion board is grafting in a vertical manner
In home slot 210, the card height of the height and expansion board that cause computer chassis, which must be criticized, matches.If the casing of low clearance, such as 1U
The card higher position of casing, expansion board will receive limitation.However, electric signal transmission extension apparatus 100 through the invention, expansion board
Plugging direction can switch to parallel with motherboard 200, and the part except motherboard 200 be extended to, so that the card of expansion board
Height can not be limited.In addition, the tertiary circuit plate 132 of signal coupling card 130 is a printed circuit board, excellent letter is provided
Number laser propagation effect, the degree for dropping low signal attenuation or being interfered.
As shown in figure 3, including a motherboard 200 for a kind of motherboard assembly structure that second embodiment of the invention discloses
An and electric signal transmission extension apparatus 100.
As shown in figure 3, motherboard 200 has a home slot 210 and constitutes other electronic components of motherboard 200.Before
Stating electronic component includes cpu socket, memory slots, storage device connecting interface, system chipset etc..Motherboard
The prior art that 200 framework is familiar with by having usually intellectual in technical field, repeats no more in this.
Electric signal transmission extension apparatus 100 includes with one first adapter 110, signal coupling card 130 and one the
Two adapters 120.Particular technique details is identical with the first embodiment;Wherein, the first electric connector 116 of the first adapter 110
For grafting home slot 210, and the interface that home slot 210 is provided, extend to extending slot 126.
In addition, home slot 210 is located at the edge of motherboard 200, and tertiary circuit plate 132 is parallel to motherboard 200, and
The direction for being directed away from motherboard 200 extends, so that being connected to the second switching of tertiary circuit plate 132 (signal coupling card 130)
Card 120 will not be located at the top of motherboard 200, meanwhile, the opening of expansion slot 126 is also to be directed away from the direction of motherboard.
That is, when expansion board is plugged in the expansion slot 126 of the second adapter 120, expansion board be extend in motherboard 200 it
Outside, rather than 200 top of motherboard is coincided with.Since motherboard 200 is not at this time below expansion board, motherboard 200 is not
Need special cut-out region with the necessary structure on expansion board of dodging.For example, when expansion board is drafting card, if drafting card is straight
Frame is connect right above motherboard 200, then motherboard 200 must just be hollowed out with GPU chip of dodging, with matching for the elements such as sharp radiator
It sets.And in the present invention, drafting card extends into except motherboard 200, therefore motherboard 200 is there is no need to hollow out, that is,
It says, motherboard 200 can be standard specification motherboard, without being customized, to maintain wide usage.
Motherboard assembly structure above-mentioned is applicable to the casing of a low clearance, such as 1U casing.Pass through electric signal transmission
Extension apparatus 100, the plugging direction of expansion board can switch to it is parallel with motherboard 200 so that the card height of expansion board do not need for
Low-calorie is high, it is also possible that expansion board can be installed in the casing of low clearance.
Meanwhile the tertiary circuit plate 132 of signal coupling card 130 is a printed circuit board, provides excellent signal transmission
Effect, the degree for dropping low signal attenuation or being interfered.
Certainly, the invention may also have other embodiments, without deviating from the spirit and substance of the present invention, ripe
It knows those skilled in the art and makes various corresponding changes and modifications, but these corresponding changes and change in accordance with the present invention
Shape all should fall within the scope of protection of the appended claims of the present invention.
