In accordance with some embodiments of the present application, in assembling the connector, the circuit board 100 is first passed through the fold-over loop formed by the second connection part 400 and the first connection part 300; then bending the circuit board 100 to one side of the second connecting component 400, and connecting and fixing the circuit board 100 and the second connecting component 400 in a mode of glue and the like; next, the plug 200 is mounted on the circuit board 100 opposite to the second connection part 400 such that the first electrical connection part 220 of the plug 200 is in contact with the circuit layer 110 on the circuit board 100; finally, both sides of the installed plug 200 are fixed to the first connection member 300.

The conventional soldering leg of the plug 200 is eliminated, and the pins 230 directly contact the internal circuit layer 110 of the circuit board 100 by utilizing the raised contacts of the pins. In order to make the contact smoothly contact with the circuit layer 110 of the circuit board 100, the insulating layer 120 and the adhesive layer of the circuit board 100 on the side of the pin 230 of the plug 200 need to be slotted along the wiring mode of the internal circuit layer 110, and in a normal state, the insulating layer 120 and the adhesive layer are in a flattened state and cannot directly leak out of the circuit layer 110, when the contact of the pin 230 of the plug 200 slides through a certain position, the insulating layer 120 and the adhesive layer at the position can be pulled out to two sides of the contact; the copper leakage can not be avoided under the normal state of the circuit board 100, and the contact of the pin 230 of the plug 200 can be fully contacted with the wiring line layer 110 of the circuit board 100 when needed.

As shown in fig. 16, 17 and 18, when it is required to change the length of the connector, only the single-sided or double-sided plug 200 is slid inward/outward together with the second connection part 400. Since the circuit board 100 is fixedly connected with the second connecting member 400, the circuit board 100 is also linked together while the second connecting member 400 moves; along with the movement of the steel sheet and the plug 200, the circuit board 100 is bent to the back side along the movement direction, and finally, the change of the connector length is realized. In the sliding process of the steel sheet and the plug 200, the contacts of the pin 230 of the male head are correspondingly designed with the wiring of the circuit layer 110 of the circuit board 100, and meanwhile, the existence of the second connecting component 400 ensures that the circuit board 100 within the range of the pin 230 of the plug 200 is in a flat state, so that the problems of the change of the length of the circuit board 100 and the disconnection after multiple bending are not required to be worried about.
