Detailed Description
The invention is further illustrated with reference to the following figures and examples.
The first embodiment:
referring to fig. 4 to 7, the battery connector includes: a plurality of elastic probes 1, an insulating base 2 and an SMT welding part 3.
The elastic probe 1 comprises a head part 11 and a body part 12 with a hollow structure, wherein the head part 11 is sleeved with the body part 12, the head part 11 can move relative to the body part 12 along the central axis direction of the probe 1, a spring 13 is arranged in the body part 12, and the spring 13 provides power for the head part 11 to extend out of the body part 12 so as to keep the head part 11 in an extending state. Such elastic probes 1 are known in the art.
The number of the elastic probes 1 can be flexibly set according to actual needs. In this embodiment, the number of the elastic probes 1 is eight, and the eight probes 1 are arranged at intervals.
The insulating base body 2 is fixedly matched with each probe 1 to support the probes 1. The insulating base 2 can be made of materials including, but not limited to, plastic, ceramic, glass, acrylic, etc. The shape of the end of the insulating base 2 is not limited, and may be rectangular, circular, D-shaped, polygonal, etc.
SMT is an english abbreviation for surface mount technology. The SMT solder portion 3 is used for the probe 1 and the circuit board 4 to perform SMT soldering. As shown in fig. 5 and 6, the SMT solder 3 is disposed in the middle of the probe 1. The shape of the SMT solder 3 may be any sheet-like structure. The SMT solder portion 3 in this embodiment is specifically a sheet-like annular structure. The SMT solder portion 3 is integrally formed with the probe 1, and more specifically, is integrally formed with the body portion 12 of the probe 1.
With further reference to fig. 7, the SMT solder portion 3 is disposed at the above-mentioned position of the probe 1 so that the tip of the probe 1 can sink into the circuit board 4 after the SMT solder portion 3 of the present battery connector is soldered to the circuit board 4. Thus, the overall height of the battery connector in combination with the circuit board 4 is equal to the length a of the probe 1.
Whereas in the prior art the overall height of the battery connector combined with the circuit board 4 is the sum of the length a of the probe 1 and the thickness b of the circuit board 4. It can be seen that the configuration of the battery connector of the first embodiment enables the height of the space required for the location of the battery connector to be reduced, thereby enabling the battery connector to be applied to a device having a small thickness.
In the above battery connector, the head 11 of the probe 1 extends from the insulating base 2, and when the external force is applied, the head 11 can retract to the probe 1 against the pressure of the spring 13 inside the probe 1, and the probe 1 has a retractable structure, so that the probe can be reliably electrically connected with the butt joint portion. In order to further enable the head 11 of the probe 1 to be reliably contacted and connected with the butting part under any condition, the length of the head 11 of the probe 1 extending out of the insulating base body 2 is set as follows: the length of the head 11 extending out of the insulation base 2 is greater than or equal to the maximum retractable length of the head 11.
With further reference to fig. 7, in the first embodiment, the SMT solder 3 on the probe 1 is located at a distance from the tip of the probe 1 equal to the thickness of the circuit board 4. This allows the rear of the circuit board 4 to be free of projections after the battery connector is coupled to the circuit board 4, which can be suitable for applications requiring the rear of the circuit board 4 to be free of projections.
As shown in fig. 7, the circuit board 4 is provided with a relief hole 41 at a position corresponding to the probe 1.
Second embodiment:
referring to fig. 8 and 9, the battery connector of the second embodiment is substantially the same as the first embodiment except that in the second embodiment, the distance from the SMT solder joint 3 of the probe 1 to the end of the probe 1 is greater than the thickness of the circuit board 4, and after the probe 1 is combined with the circuit board 4, a portion of the probe 1 protrudes from the back of the circuit board 4, so that the length of the probe 1 exposed out of the face of the circuit board 4 is reduced.
In some applications, for example, when there is a gap for accommodating the probe 1 in the battery connector mounting position of the device, the portion of the probe 1 protruding from the back of the circuit board 4 can be recessed in the gap, which further reduces the height of the space required for the battery connector mounting position, and is more beneficial to the thinning of the device.
As another embodiment, the battery connector further includes a circuit board 4, as shown in fig. 7 or 9, the SMT solder portion 3 is soldered to the circuit board 4, and the circuit board 4 is provided with an avoiding hole 41 corresponding to the probe 1.
The present invention has been described in detail with reference to the specific embodiments, and the detailed description is only for the purpose of helping those skilled in the art understand the present invention, and is not to be construed as limiting the scope of the present invention. Various modifications, equivalent changes, etc. made by those skilled in the art under the spirit of the present invention shall be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
