In the description of the present invention, it is to be understood that the terms "left", "right", "upper", "lower", "front", "rear", and the like indicate orientations or positional relationships based on those shown in the drawings, and are only for convenience of description and simplification of description, but do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and thus, should not be construed as limiting the present invention.

The following will explain the contents of the present invention in detail with reference to the specific embodiments, and fig. 1 and fig. 2 respectively show the explosion schematic diagram of the Fakra electrical connector assembly of the present invention, it can be known that the Fakra electrical connector assembly mainly comprises the Fakra electrical connector male socket 1, the Fakra electrical connector female socket 2, and the cable assembly 3. The cable assembly 3 is arranged in and fixed in the Fakra electric connector male base 1, and is inserted and matched with the Fakra electric connector female base 2 as a whole to realize signal transmission in a cooperative manner.

As shown in fig. 3, 4 and 5, the cable assembly 3 is mainly composed of a cable 31, a conductive terminal 32, an insulating sheath 33, a shielding mesh furling sheath 34, a metal shielding sheath 35, and the like. The cable 31 is formed by sequentially sheathing a central conductor 311, an inner insulating layer 312, a shielding mesh layer 313, and an outer sheath layer 314 from inside to outside. The conductive terminal 32 is connected to the central conductor 311 and electrically conducted. The insulating sleeve 33 is sleeved on the periphery of the conductive terminal 32. The shielding net furling sleeve 34 is sleeved on the periphery of the shielding net layer 313, and is shrunk under the action of external force to compress the shielding net layer 313. The metal shielding sleeve 35 is simultaneously sleeved on the outer sheath layer 314, the shielding net furling sleeve 34 and the periphery of the insulating sleeve 33, and is shrunk under the action of external force to compress the outer sheath layer 314. As shown in fig. 8, an annular stop flange 331 extends outward around the outer side wall of the insulating sleeve 33, and correspondingly, an annular stop step 351 (shown in fig. 11, 12 and 13) matching with the annular stop flange 331 is formed in the inner cavity of the metal shielding sleeve 35. When the insertion of the insulating sleeve 33 with respect to the metallic shielding sleeve 35 is completed, the annular abutment step 351 abuts against the annular abutment flange 331 to limit the axial displacement movement of the insulating sleeve 33 (as shown in fig. 14).

As shown in fig. 6 and 7, the conductive terminals 32 are sequentially connected by the clamping section 321 and the inserting section 322 along the left-to-right direction. The clamping section 321 surrounds or semi-surrounds the center conductor 311 and contracts when subjected to an external force to effect a grip on the center conductor 311. The insertion section 322 is provided with a stop limit unit 3221 and a stop limit unit 3222. The stopping and limiting unit 3221 is composed of two stopping pieces 32211, which are extended from the side wall of the inserting and matching section 322 and are oppositely arranged. The stopping and limiting unit 3222 is separated from the stopping and limiting unit 3221 by a predetermined distance, and is composed of two stopping and retaining fins 32221, which are extended from the side wall of the insertion and assembly section 322 and are disposed opposite to each other. As shown in fig. 8, 9 and 10, an annular limiting step 332 is disposed in the inner cavity of the insulating sleeve 33, and when the conductive terminal 32 is inserted into position relative to the insulating sleeve 33, the annular limiting step 332 abuts against the right side of the stopping piece 32211 to limit the axial displacement movement of the stopping piece 32211. In addition, two opposite limiting notches 333 are formed on the side wall of the insulating sleeve 33.

By adopting the above technical solution, after the conductive terminal 32 is inserted in place relative to the insulating sleeve 33, the annular limiting step 332 is stopped against the right side of the stopping piece 32211 to limit the axial displacement movement of the stopping piece 32211, and meanwhile, the stopping fin 32221 is positioned relative to the limiting notch 333 to limit the axial displacement movement of the stopping fin 32221. In addition, the insulating sleeve 33 is limited in the inner cavity of the metal shielding sleeve 35, and the metal shielding sleeve 35 is connected with the outer sheath layer 314, so that on one hand, the conductive terminal 32 can be effectively ensured to be always kept at a correct assembly position relative to the insulating sleeve 33 in the insertion process, the occurrence of a premature fatigue fracture phenomenon caused by repeated insertion of the central conductor 311 is further avoided, and finally, the signal transmission process is reliably and stably executed; on the other hand, the difficulty of inserting and assembling the conductive terminal 32 and the wiring terminal can be effectively reduced, and the conductive terminal 32 is beneficial to keeping a correct inserting and assembling posture relative to the wiring terminal in the inserting and assembling process.

In addition, as can be seen from fig. 6 and 7, the conductive terminal 32 is preferably an integral stamping bent piece in view of reducing the molding difficulty and reducing the manufacturing cost, and the stopping piece 32211 is formed by continuously extending the abutting edge of the conductive terminal 32 and outwardly folding the abutting edge by 90 °. The retaining clip wings 32221 are punched from the side walls of the conductive terminals 32 and are bent outward.

As is known, the conductive terminal 32 can take various designs to achieve the grip of the central conductor 311, however, an embodiment is proposed herein that has a simple design, is easy to form, and facilitates the pressing and deforming operation, as follows: as shown in fig. 6, the clamping section 321 is formed by sequentially connecting a front clamping fin 3211, a clamping section body 3212, and a rear clamping fin 3213 in this order around the circumferential direction. The clamping section body 3212 is used for directly carrying the central conductor 311, and the front clamping fin 3211 and the rear clamping fin 3213 are disposed on both sides of the central conductor 311 in a semi-surrounding manner. When the center conductor 311 is placed in position relative to the conductive terminals 32, the front and rear clamping fins 3211, 3213 are simultaneously compressed when subjected to external forces to achieve a tight hold of the center conductor 311.

In order to ensure that the pre-clamping fin 3211 maintains sufficient holding force with respect to the central conductor 311 after deformation is completed and to prevent the central conductor 311 from slipping out of the conductive terminals 32, as a further optimization of the structure of the pre-clamping fin 3211, a pre-friction-increasing groove 32111 is formed on the side opposite to the central conductor 311. The front friction-increasing grooves 32111 are provided in plural numbers and arranged linearly along the lengthwise extension direction of the front clamping fins 3211 (as shown in fig. 6).

Similar to the design of the front clamping fin 3211, a rear friction-increasing groove 32131 is formed on the rear clamping fin 3213 on the side opposite to the center conductor 311. The rear friction-increasing grooves 32131 are provided in plural numbers and arranged linearly along the lengthwise extension direction of the rear clamping fins 3213 (as shown in fig. 7).

The previous description of the disclosed embodiments is provided to enable any person skilled in the art to make or use the present invention. Various modifications to these embodiments will be readily apparent to those skilled in the art, and the generic principles defined herein may be applied to other embodiments without departing from the spirit or scope of the invention. Thus, the present invention is not intended to be limited to the embodiments shown herein but is to be accorded the widest scope consistent with the principles and novel features disclosed herein.
