Description

Two-in-one electric power connector joint

Technical field

The utility model belongs to the technical field of line connector, especially refers to a kind of adapter connector with two kinds of different agreements.

Background technology

Usually link to each other with signal transmission line between different electronic installations so that transmission signal each other, and signal transmission line and electronic installation connect removably mostly through joint on transmission line one end and the connector body on the electronic installation at present.

The most universal signal transmission standard of computer equipment is no more than universal serial bus (USB now, Universal Serial Bus), connector body and the transmission line made with this specification can make the peripheral equipment that is external in computer, as mouse, drawing board and carry-on dish, the carry-on hard disk of circumscribed or the like, exist side by side for computer is measured in real time and promptly use, need not to wait for that computer starts shooting again, this is so-called plug and play, the USB specification has 2.0 versions at present, and theoretical transmission value can arrive 480Mbps.

Yet, the software document amount of computer is constantly soaring at present, easily count Gb, corresponding, the main flow hard disk also possesses up to Gb up to a hundred and holds ever-increasing software document, so prior USB 2.0 is not applied high flow capacity data transmission requirements gradually, therefore another kind of at present with the transmission standard of inserting with usefulness, advanced supplementary technology (the eSATA of sequence, External Serial ATA), the theoretical transmission value of this specification can arrive 1.5Gbps, helps the data transmission of periphery at a high speed such as external hard drive than USB2.0.

Above-mentioned USB and eSATA interface are also incompatible, only connector body and the joint under both is rather similar, and with regard to the connector combination hub, both all form a slot in a hollow housing, the projection of slot bosom has a sheet of insulation tongue piece, and tongue piece is provided with plural metal terminal; With regard to joint, both all are formed with a tank to hold corresponding tongue piece in a housing, and a tank wherein inwall is provided with a stator, plural metal terminal is set on this stator carries out the signal transmission to contact with metal terminal on the tongue piece.

With mobile computer, mostly possesses the USB connector socket, and in a short time the USB interface still be widely used in various in low speed periphery transmission and do not have the anxiety of disappearance, and in response to the high flow capacity transmission requirements, following mobile computer also will be included the eSATA connector body in, therefore, in the future mobile computer will possess the connector body of above-mentioned two kinds of specifications simultaneously soon.And an essential USB connector joint or the eSATA adapter connector of connecting of each external peripheral equipment, in the connector body that is plugged in same size.Thus, the essential adapter connector of making two sections of different sizes of producer is installed on it external peripheral equipment again, can increase the complexity of production management.

Moreover, the user need select adapter connector is plugged on the connector body of same size, if but this connector body has supplied the peripheral equipment of another same size to plant when connecting, at this moment, can only select to use wherein a peripheral equipment and can't use simultaneously, to be used finishing pulled out again, changes another adapter connector plant and uses, and causes user's inconvenience.

The utility model content

In order to improve above-mentioned shortcoming, main purpose of the present utility model is to provide a kind of two-in-one electric power connector joint, on same electric power connector joint, the USB terminal group is set simultaneously, and eSATA terminal group, make it can be inserted in the connector body of USB specification arbitrarily, and the eSATA connector body, reach the convenient purpose of manufacturing and using.

Because the USB joint is thicker, and the wider width of eSATA joint, in order to meet the connector joint chair of these two kinds of specifications simultaneously, design direction of the present utility model be get two kinds of joints the little value person of height, width (promptly getting the width value of USB joint, the height value of eSATA joint) as designed joint dimension, for it firmly is plugged on the higher USB connector socket, the metal shell of the utility model joint is also done special plug-in card design again.

The concrete technological means of implementing above-mentioned design concept comprises:

One insulation holder is the rectangle framework, and its inner preceding half section tank that forms open front on one day forms most the first terminal grooves, second terminal groove respectively in the end face and the bottom surface of tank;

One eSATA terminal group is propped up the eSATA terminal by majority and is constituted, and each eSATA terminal is inserted in respectively in each the first terminal groove, and eSATA terminal back segment protrudes in outside the insulation holder;

One USB terminal group is propped up the USB terminal by majority and is constituted, and each USB terminal is inserted in respectively in each second terminal groove, and USB terminal back segment protrudes in outside the insulation holder;

One metal shell, be located at insulation holder periphery wall, its top margin perisporium is provided with first elastic arm of giving prominence to one day and two short slots that are positioned at first elastic arm, two sides outward, and metal shell base perisporium is provided with second an outstanding elastic arm down, it is standing shape that this second elastic arm is positioned at the metal shell middle section, is positioned at highlight on this second elastic arm and is provided with two short slots.

Implement after the above-mentioned technological means, the obtainable concrete benefit of the utility model is:

1. because insulation holder inside is respectively equipped with an eSATA terminal group and a USB terminal group, can correspondingly be plugged in eSATA connector body or USB connector socket, the user is plugged in eSATA connector body or USB connector socket arbitrarily, that is, when if main frame is only established the connector body of single specification, it is all applicable to be provided with peripheral equipment of the present utility model.

2. if former eSATA connector body and the USB connector socket of being provided with of main frame, but when wherein a kind of connector body has used for pegging graft, have the connector of the applicable another kind of specification of peripheral equipment of the present utility model, and do not need the equipment of originally having pegged graft is pulled out.

3. for the producer, it helps the arrangement and the production control of production line as long as a kind of adapter connector of manufacture order promptly has two kinds of different sizes.
