It should be noted that the embodiments and features of the embodiments in the present application may be combined with each other without conflict. The present application will be described in detail below with reference to the embodiments with reference to the attached drawings.

For convenience of understanding and explanation, the adaptor, the data line and the connector provided in the embodiment of the present application are described in detail below with reference to fig. 1 to 7.

Please refer to fig. 1, which is a schematic diagram of a basic structure of an adapter according to an embodiment of the present application. The adapter 100 includes a circuit board 101, a base 102, a terminal 103 mounted on the base 102, and a housing 104 covering the base 102.

Wherein, an included angle is formed between the circuit board 101 and the base 102. Optionally, the angle between the circuit board 101 and the base 102 is less than 180 °. Illustratively, as shown in FIG. 1, the included angle is 90. Because the included angle exists between the circuit board 101 and the base 102, the welding direction of the circuit board and the direction of the base are not on the same straight line, so that the data line is prevented from being bent, the service life is prolonged, the size of the insertion direction of the adapter 100 is shortened, and the operation of a user on the electronic equipment is not influenced. Alternatively, the electronic device may include, but is not limited to, a Personal Digital Assistant (PDA), a Tablet Computer (Tablet Computer), a wireless handheld device, a cell phone, and the like.

It should be noted that, in the embodiment of the present invention, the included angle between the circuit board 101 and the base 102 may be a fixed included angle, that is, the included angle cannot be changed after the adapter 100 is manufactured. Or, the included angle between the circuit board 101 and the base 102 is a movable included angle, that is, the user can flexibly adjust the included angle according to the change of the application scene, so that the application range of the adapter 100 is wide.

Optionally, the adapter 100 may include, but is not limited to, any one of a Micro USB interface or a Type-C interface, so as to meet the use requirements of various types of electronic devices on the market.

Optionally, as shown in fig. 2, it is a schematic view of an overall structure of a terminal provided in an embodiment of the present application. As can be seen from fig. 2, a plurality of terminals 103 are arranged in parallel. Taking one of the terminals as an example, referring to fig. 3, the terminal 103 includes a contact region 1031, a transition region 1032 and a bonding region 1033 which are sequentially formed. The transition region 1032 is provided with an insulating layer, the contact region 1031 is used for electrically connecting an interface terminal of an external device, and the bonding pad 1033 is used for being soldered on the circuit board 101. In the actual manufacturing process, the dashed box shown in fig. 3 is a tape used for terminal stamping and positioning holes on the tape used for robot tip positioning, in other words, the dashed box is removed after assembly.

Optionally, a protrusion 1034 pointing towards the interior of the housing 104 is further disposed on the transition region 1032 of the terminal 103. The benefit that sets up like this lies in, after the core is glued in the terminal 103 insertion, can prevent that the contact zone 1031 of terminal 103 from playing too big, has avoided the head closed angle of terminal 103 to be higher than the plastic face of gluing the core, has reduced the kneeling PIN risk of adapter 100 in the plug in-process simultaneously. It should be noted that the housing 104 is a shell made of metal, and the socket shape of the shell may include, but is not limited to, any one of a Micro USB interface or a Type-C interface, and is used for protecting and shielding the base 102 and the terminal 103 inserted therein from interference.

Optionally, the transition region 1032 of the terminal 103 and the critical portion of the bonding region 1033 are provided with at least two convex hulls 1035, the at least two convex hulls 1035 pointing in opposite directions. The advantage of this arrangement is that, as shown in fig. 4, considering that the groove width of the rubber core is 0.05mm wider than the thickness of the terminal 103, i.e. the distance between the terminal 103 and the grooves on both sides is 0.025mm, the at least two convex hulls 1035 with opposite directions can prevent the phenomenon that the terminal 103 is inclined left and right after being inserted into the groove, and the female seat is more easily worn during the insertion and extraction process.

Optionally, as shown in fig. 5, which is a partially enlarged schematic view of a terminal structure provided in an embodiment of the present application. As can be seen from the dashed frame portion of fig. 5, the end of the terminal 103 where the land 1033 is located is stepped, wherein the end is located away from the transition region 1032. This arrangement is advantageous in that when the end of the land 1033 is soldered to the circuit board 101 by Surface Mount Technology (SMT), it is possible to prevent a burr generated at the position plane of the dicing tape from adversely affecting the soldering, thereby improving the reliability of circuit connection.

Optionally, the base 102 comprises a first base surface 1021 and a second base surface 1022, the first base surface 1021 and the second base surface 1022 being parallel to each other. Wherein a first row of terminals is disposed on the first seating surface 1021, a second row of terminals is disposed on the second seating surface 1022, and the terminals 103 include the first row of terminals and the second row of terminals.

It should be noted that the total number of terminals 103 may include, but is not limited to, 12, 16, and 24. Exemplarily, when the total number of the terminals 103 is 12, as shown in fig. 6, the first row of terminals includes a first ground terminal GND, a first power terminal VBUS, a first USB PD communication line terminal CC1, a first data terminal D +, a first data terminal D-, a second power terminal VBUS, a second ground terminal GND which are sequentially arranged; and the second row of terminals includes a third ground terminal GND, a third power terminal VBUS, a second USB PD communication line terminal CC2, a fourth power terminal VBUS, and a fourth ground terminal GND arranged in sequence.

Likewise, when the total number of the terminals 103 is 16, the first row of terminals includes a first ground terminal GND, a first power terminal VBUS, a first USB PD communication line terminal CC1, a first data terminal D +, a first data terminal D-, a first auxiliary terminal SBU1, a second power terminal VBUS, and a second ground terminal GND, which are sequentially arranged; and the second row of terminals includes a third ground terminal GND, a third power terminal VBUS, a second USB PD communication line terminal CC2, a second data terminal D +, a second data terminal D-, a second auxiliary terminal SBU2, a fourth power terminal VBUS, a fourth ground terminal GND, which are arranged in order.

Optionally, in this embodiment of the present application, the terminal 103 is a blanking terminal. The term "blanking terminal" refers to a terminal having a contact surface or an interference fixing surface formed by using a cut surface in blanking. This arrangement has advantages in that the positive force of the terminal can be enhanced, the contact reliability can be improved, and a large current can be realized more easily.

When the plug includes any of the USB interface, the Type-C interface, or the Audio interface, the data line 200 is of a "one-in-many" Type, for example, one end of the connection line 201 is connected to the adapter 100, and the other end is connected to the USB interface and the Type-C interface simultaneously, which is of a "one-in-two" Type; for another example, one end of the connection line 201 is connected to the adapter 100, and the other end is connected to the USB interface, the Type-C interface, and the Audio interface simultaneously, which is a "one-in-three" Type.
