Description
Technical Field
The utility model relates to a connector and supporting side connector opposition and gomphosis and the connector assembly who forms.
Background
Fig. 1A, 1B, and 2 show a connector (referred to as a socket in patent document 1) 10 and a mating connector (referred to as a plug in patent document 1) 20 described in patent document 1 (japanese patent application laid-open No. 2019-121439), which are conventional examples of a connector and a mating connector that are fitted to each other to constitute a connector assembly.
The connector 10 is configured such that signal terminals 12, 13, and 14 and ground terminals 15 and 16 are mounted on a connector housing 11, and a shell-shaped conductor 17 is mounted thereon. The shell-shaped conductor 17 is integrally attached to the connector housing 11 by insert molding, is formed in a substantially rectangular ring shape continuous in the circumferential direction on the outer circumferential side of the connector housing 11, and surrounds the upper surface outer circumference and the side surface upper portion of the connector housing 11.
The signal terminals 12-14 are disposed with ground terminals 15, 16 interposed therebetween, and the signal terminals 12-14 are separated from each other by the ground terminals 15, 16. The ground terminals 15 and 16 are formed by press working of a plate material and have the shape shown in fig. 1B.
The connector housing 11 has a fitting portion insertion hole 11a at the center, and the signal terminals 12 to 14 and the ground terminals 15 and 16 are exposed in the fitting portion insertion hole 11 a. In fig. 1A and 1B, reference numerals 12a to 16a denote connection ends of the signal terminals 12 to 14 and the ground terminals 15 and 16, respectively, on the mounting board.
The mating connector 20 has a structure in which signal terminals 22, 23, and 24 and a shell conductor 25 are attached to a connector housing 21. The signal terminals 22 to 24 are held by protruding portions 26a to 26c arranged in line at the center of the insert-molded resin portion 26 of the connector housing 21. The shell-like conductor 25 has a shape along the peripheral wall portion 27 of the connector housing 21, is insert-molded as a part of the connector housing 21, and is integrated with the insert-molded resin portion 26.
SUMMERY OF THE UTILITY MODEL
Technical problem to be solved by the utility model
As described above, the conventional connector 10 and the mating connector 20 have the shell- shaped conductors 17 and 25 as the external shields, respectively, and the connector 10 has the ground terminals 15 and 16 forming the internal shields for shielding the signal terminals 12 to 14 from each other.
However, since the mating connector 20 does not have a ground terminal, it is not configured to connect the ground terminals of the connectors fitted to each other in reference 1, and in this respect, the ground terminals 15 and 16 of the connector 10 are simply formed in a flat plate shape that shields the signal terminals 12 to 14 from each other.
In the connector 10, the ground terminals 15 and 16 forming the inner shield and the shell-shaped conductor 17 forming the outer shield are separate bodies (different components), and the ground terminals 15 and 16 are also separate bodies, so that the number of components increases and the number of assembly steps increases.
The present invention has been made in view of the above circumstances, and an object of the present invention is to provide a connector assembly in which, in a structure in which both a connector and a mating connector constituting the connector assembly have a ground terminal and a housing forming an external shield, the number of components can be reduced by integrating the housing and the ground terminal, and in a case where elastic deformation occurs in order to allow good connection between the ground terminal integrated in this manner and the mating side ground terminal, simple and good arrangement can be performed on an insulator.
Technical solution for solving technical problem
In a connector assembly in which one connector and the other connector are combined with each other, the one connector has an insulator to which a signal terminal is fixed and a set of metal fittings. A portion of the metal fitting is all or a portion of the housing and all or a portion of the remainder of the metal fitting is all or a portion of an extension extending from the housing. The extension portion has an elastically deformable ground terminal. The extension is pressed into the insulator, as a result of which the insulator is fixed to the housing.
Effect of the utility model
According to the present invention, in the connector assembly in which the connector is fitted to the mating connector, the ground terminal is formed integrally with the housing in the connector, and therefore the number of components can be reduced accordingly.
Further, the ground terminal is elastically deformed so as to be able to be connected to the mating-side ground terminal of the mating-side connector in a satisfactory manner, but since the housing integral with the ground terminal is fixed by press-fitting the insulator, the elastically deformed ground terminal can be easily and satisfactorily disposed on the insulator.

[ first embodiment ]
Fig. 3A, 3B, 4A, and 4B show a connector 100 constituting one of the first embodiment of the connector assembly of the present invention, and the connector 100 is composed of a first terminal 41, a second terminal 42, a ground terminal 40, a housing 50, and an insulator 60. The ground terminal 40 is in this example formed integrally with the housing 50 that forms the outline of the connector 100. Fig. 5 shows details of the ground terminal 40 and the housing 50 which are integrally formed, and fig. 6 shows the insulator 60 and the first terminal 41 and the second terminal 42 which are held by the insulator 60.
The insulator 60 is made of resin and is formed in a substantially rectangular parallelepiped shape as a whole. The first terminals 41 are attached to both ends of the insulator 60 in the longitudinal direction, and the second terminals 42 are attached to the center of the insulator 60 in two rows, two for each row, and four in total.
The first terminal 41 has a pair of contact pieces 41a facing each other, and the second terminal 42 also has a pair of contact pieces 42a facing each other. The first terminal 41 and the second terminal 42 are signal terminals, and the connection portions 41b and 42b with the substrate are located on the bottom surface side of the insulator 60. Two first terminals 41 are used in this example for high frequency signals (for high speed transmission) and four second terminals 42 are used for low frequency signals (for low speed transmission).
The conductive case 50 is formed by bending a metal plate, and a rectangular frame portion 51 is formed by two main bodies having コ -shaped outer walls. The frame-shaped portion 51 is formed by outer wall portions 52 located on opposite sides forming long sides of a quadrangle and outer wall portions 53 located on opposite sides forming short sides of the quadrangle, and bent portions 52a, 53a that slightly protrude and bend toward the inside of the frame are formed at the upper ends of the outer wall portions 52, 53, respectively.
The housing 50 has: a frame-shaped portion 51 constituting the outline of the connector 100, and an extension portion 54 formed to extend from the frame-shaped portion 51 into the frame. The extension portions 54 are formed so as to extend in a direction to approach each other from positions where the outer wall portions 52 face each other, and are formed at two positions in the longitudinal direction of the outer wall portion 52.
The extension portion 54 is formed by a coupling portion 55 formed in a shape bent and extended from the lower end of the outer wall portion 52, a press-in portion 56 bent and raised from the coupling portion 55, and a support portion 57 extended from the upper end of the press-in portion 56, and the ground terminal 40 is formed between the support portions 57 of the pair of extension portions 54 extended in the direction approaching each other, extending from both the support portions 57. The press-fitting portion 56 is formed with a pair of projections 56a projecting in the width direction.
The ground terminal 40 is constituted by a plate portion 44 formed by a pair of コ -shaped portions 43 formed in an コ shape opened upward being adjacent to each other and located on the same plane, and a protrusion 43b is formed on the tip end side of the コ -shaped leg portions 43a of the pair of コ -shaped portions 43 adjacent to each other and protruding outward from each other. The ground terminal 40 is provided at two positions in the longitudinal direction of the housing 50 and is elastically deformable, and the leg portions 43c of the pair of コ -shaped portions 43 located outside each other are coupled to and supported by the support portion 57 of the extension portion 54.
Two small-sized notches 58 are formed in the lower end of each outer wall 52 at the portions sandwiched between the two coupling portions 55. The notch 58 is provided corresponding to the position of the connection portion 42b of the second terminal 42 held by the insulator 60 and exposed to the bottom surface side of the insulator 60.
As described above, the housing 50 in which the ground terminal 40 is integrally formed is attached to the insulator 60 that holds the first terminal 41 and the second terminal 42. The mounting is performed by covering the housing 50 from above the insulator 60 and pressing. At this time, the four press-fitting portions 56 of the housing 50 having the protrusions 56a are press-fitted into the press-fitting portions 61 at four positions formed in the insulator 60, whereby the insulator 60 is fixed and held to the housing 50. The plate portions 44 of the two ground terminals 40, each formed by the pair of コ -shaped portions 43, are inserted into the slits 62 of the insulator 60, and positioned between the first terminal 41 and the second terminal 42 to form a shield portion, thereby completing the connector 100 shown in fig. 3A, 3B, 4A, and 4B.
Next, a mating connector 200 that is fitted to the connector 100 to constitute a connector assembly will be described.
Fig. 7A, 7B, 8A, and 8B show a mating-side connector 200, and the mating-side connector 200 is configured by a mating-side first terminal 71 and a mating-side second terminal 72 that form a mating-side signal terminal, a mating-side ground terminal 70, a mating-side housing 80, and a mating-side insulator 90. Fig. 9 shows details of the mating side housing 80, and fig. 10 shows a state where the mating side housing 80 is removed from the mating side connector 200.
The mating-side insulator 90 is made of resin and includes: a bottom plate 91, and side walls 92 provided at four corners of the bottom plate 91. The first terminals 71 on the mating side are attached to both ends of the bottom plate 91 in the longitudinal direction, and the second terminals 72 on the mating side are formed in two rows, two for each row, and four in total in the center of the bottom plate 91. Further, between each of the two mating side first terminals 71 and the four mating side second terminals 72, a mating side ground terminal 70 is mounted.
The mating-side first terminal 71 is formed in a columnar shape and has a connecting portion 71a at a lower end thereof for connection to the substrate. The mating-side second terminal 72 is formed in a plate shape and has a connection portion 72a at a lower end thereof for connection to a substrate. Two mating side first terminals 71 are for high frequency signals and four mating side second terminals 72 are for low frequency signals.
As shown in fig. 8B, the mating-side ground terminal 70 has a mating-side plate portion 73 at the center in the extending direction, and the mating-side plate portion 73 is formed in a shape having a pair of protruding portions 75 that form a recess 74 that opens upward between each other. The pair of projections 75 project from the bottom plate 91 of the mating insulator 90. In the mating side plate portion 73, a connecting portion 76 connecting the lower ends of the pair of projections 75 is exposed on the bottom surface side of the mating side insulator 90. The mating-side ground terminal 70 is formed of the mating-side plate portion 73 having the above-described configuration and the extension portions 77 extending from both ends of the connection portion 76 of the mating-side plate portion 73. The mating side plate portions 73 of the two mating side ground terminals 70 are respectively located between the mating side first terminal 71 and the mating side second terminal 72, forming a mating side shield portion.
The conductive mating-side housing 80 formed in a rectangular frame shape is formed by bending a metal plate, and includes, as shown in fig. 9: the outer wall portions 81 located on the two opposite sides forming the long sides of the quadrangle, the outer wall portions 82 located on the two opposite sides forming the short sides of the quadrangle, and the pair of connecting portions 83 connecting the upper ends of the outer wall portions 81 and 82. The pair of coupling portions 83 have plate surfaces that slightly block both ends in the longitudinal direction of the rectangular frame.
Two cutouts 84 are formed at the lower end of each outer wall portion 81, and cutouts 85 are formed on both sides in the side direction of the two cutouts 84. The notch 84 is provided corresponding to the position of the connection portion 72a of the mating-side second terminal 72 held by the mating-side insulator 90 and exposed to the bottom surface side of the mating-side insulator 90, and the notch 85 is provided corresponding to the position of the extension portion 77 of the mating-side ground terminal 70 held by the mating-side insulator 90 and exposed to the bottom surface side of the mating-side insulator 90. At both ends of each outer wall portion 82 in the side direction, protrusions 82b are formed to protrude outward from each other.
The mating side housing 80 having the above-described structure is mounted on the mating side insulator 90 that holds the mating side first terminal 71, the mating side second terminal 72, and the mating side ground terminal 70. The fitting-side housing 80 is attached by covering the fitting-side insulator 90 and pressing the fitting-side housing 80, and the two outer wall portions 82 having the protrusions 82B are respectively pressed into the recesses 93 formed outside the side walls 92 across the two side walls 92 of the fitting-side insulator 90, thereby completing the fitting-side connector 200 shown in fig. 7A, 7B, 8A, and 8B.
The connector 100 and the mating connector 200 are board-to-board connectors that are mounted on the respective opposing surfaces of the opposing boards and are fitted and connected to each other, and in the connector 100, the connection portions 41b and 42b of the first terminal 41 and the second terminal 42, and the portions of the plate portion 44 of the ground terminal 40 that are exposed on the bottom surface of the insulator 60 (the intermediate portions of the コ shapes of the pair of コ -shaped portions 43) and the housing 50 are soldered and connected to the corresponding lands and patterns of the boards.
On the other hand, in the mating connector 200, the connection portions 71a and 72a of the mating first terminal 71 and the mating second terminal 72, the connection portion 76 and the extension portion 77 of the mating plate portion 73 of the mating ground terminal 70, and the mating housing 80 are soldered and connected to the corresponding lands and patterns of the substrate.
Fig. 11A, 11B, 11C, and 11D show the connector assembly of the present invention in which the connector 100 is fitted to the mating connector 200, and the illustration of the substrate is omitted.
The mating-side connector 200 is fitted to the connector 100, whereby the first terminals 41 and the mating-side first terminals 71 and the second terminals 42 and the mating-side second terminals 72 are fitted and connected to each other. The convex portions 81a and 82a provided in the mating-side housing 80 fit over the curved portions 52a and 53a of the housing 50, and thereby the mating-side housing 80 is fitted inside the housing 50.
On the other hand, the plate portion 44 of the ground terminal 40 and the mating side plate portion 73 of the mating side ground terminal 70 have plate surfaces parallel to each other and parallel to the fitting direction of the connector 100 and the mating side connector 200, and as shown in fig. 11D, the pair of protruding portions 75 of the mating side plate portion 73 are inserted into and positioned in the コ shapes of the pair of コ -shaped portions 43 of the plate portion 44, respectively, and the mutually adjacent コ -shaped leg portions 43a of the pair of コ -shaped portions 43 are inserted into and positioned in the recessed portions 74 of the mating side plate portion 73, respectively. When the adjacent コ -shaped leg portions 43a are inserted into the recessed portions 74, they are elastically deformed in directions approaching each other, and the protrusions 43b provided on the distal end sides of the leg portions 43a are elastically brought into contact with the inner side surfaces of the pair of protruding portions 75 by the elastic restoring force of the leg portions 43 a. Thereby, the plate portion 44 forming the shielding portion between the first terminal 41 and the second terminal 42 and the mating side plate portion 73 forming the mating side shielding portion between the mating side first terminal 71 and the mating side second terminal 72 are electrically connected to each other.
In this way, in this example, the plate portion 44 is combined with the mating side plate portion 73, and a shield is formed between the high-frequency signal first terminal 41 and the mating side first terminal 71, and the low-frequency signal second terminal 42 and the mating side second terminal 72. In fig. 11D, a portion a surrounded by a dotted line indicates a portion constituting the shield, and electromagnetic interference between the terminals (between the high-frequency signal terminal and the low-frequency signal terminal and between the high-frequency signal terminals) is shielded by the shield.
The plate portion 44 and the mating side plate portion 73 have the same thickness (plate thickness) in this example, and the plate portion 44 and the mating side plate portion 73 are combined into one plate in a range where the thicknesses are uniform. The gap between the plate portion 44 and the mating side plate portion 73 and the gap between the adjacent コ -shaped leg portions 43a of the plate portion 44 inserted into the recess 74 of the mating side plate portion 73 and positioned therein are smaller than the thickness of the plate portion 44 and the mating side plate portion 73, whereby a good shielding performance can be ensured in this example.
The thickness of the plate portion 44 and the thickness of the mating side plate portion 73 may not necessarily be the same, and when the thicknesses are different, the plate portion 44 and the mating side plate portion 73 are combined so that the range of one thickness is within the range of the other thickness. In this way, when the thickness of the plate portion 44 is different from the thickness of the mating side plate portion 73, the gap between the plate portion 44 and the mating side plate portion 73 and the gap between the コ -shaped leg portions 43a located in the recessed portion 74 are smaller than the thickness of either the plate portion 44 or the mating side plate portion 73.

In fig. 12A, 12B, 13, 14A, 14B, 15A, 15B, 16A, and 16B, the same reference numerals are used for portions corresponding to the structures of the first embodiment shown in fig. 3A, 3B, 4A, 4B, 5, 6, 7A, 7B, 8A, 8B, 9, 10, 11A, 11B, 11C, and 11D, and detailed description thereof will be omitted.
In this example, as shown in fig. 15B, the mating-side shield portion of the mating-side ground terminal 70 'is formed by a flat plate portion 78 formed in a substantially rectangular shape, and the mating-side ground terminal 70' is formed by the flat plate portion 78 and extension portions 77 extending from both lower ends of the flat plate portion 78. The flat plate portion 78 projects from the bottom plate portion 91 of the mating insulator 90 and is positioned between the mating first terminal 71 and the mating second terminal 72, and the lower edge of the flat plate portion 78 and the extension portion 77 are positioned on the bottom surface side of the mating insulator 90 and are exposed.
On the other hand, as shown in fig. 13, the shield portion formed by the ground terminal 40' is formed by a pair of コ -shaped portions 48 adjacent to each other. The mutually adjacent コ -shaped leg portions of the pair of コ -shaped portions 48 form a contact portion 49 that elastically displaces in the contact direction perpendicular to the plate surface 48a of the コ -shaped portion 48, and the contact portion 49 has a shape curved く. The ground terminal 40' is integrally formed with the housing 50, and the leg portions 48b of the pair of コ -shaped portions 48 located on the outer sides extend from the extension portion 54 of the housing 50, respectively, as in the ground terminal 40 of the first embodiment.
The pair of コ -shaped portions 48 of the two ground terminals 40' are inserted into the slits 62 of the insulator 60 and are located between the first terminal 41 and the second terminal 42, respectively.
In the connector assembly in which the connector 100 'is fitted to and connected to the mating connector 200', in this example, as shown in fig. 16B, the contact portion 49 elastically displaceable in the contact direction perpendicular to the fitting direction is elastically contacted to the plate surface 78a of the flat plate portion 78 having a plate surface (mating side plate surface) parallel to the fitting direction, and the contact direction is perpendicular to the plate surface 78 a. Thus, the pair of コ -shaped portions 48 forming the shield portion of the ground terminal 40 'and the flat plate portion 78 forming the mating side shield portion of the mating side ground terminal 70' are electrically connected to each other and combined, and a shield for electromagnetic interference between the shield terminals similar to the first embodiment is formed between the first terminal 41 and the mating side first terminal 71 and between the second terminal 42 and the mating side second terminal 72.
In the above, the embodiments of the present invention have been described, and in the present invention, in one of the connectors constituting the connector assembly, the ground terminal that is elastically deformed is integrally formed in the extension portion of the housing, and the press-in portion provided in the extension portion is press-fitted into the press-in portion of the insulator, whereby the housing is attached to the insulator and the ground terminal is arranged at a desired position in the insulator.
As for the mounting of the housing on the insulator, as used in the connector 10 and the mating connector 20 of patent document 1, the housing is usually mounted on the insulator by insert molding (integral molding), and thus, the ground terminal disposed in the insulator is integrally formed in the housing mounted on the insulator by integral molding, and in order to prevent resin from entering a portion of the ground terminal that is elastically deformed due to the elastic deformation of the ground terminal, the portion must be closed by a mold. In addition, since the sealing is performed by the mold, a space for accommodating the mold is required in the insulator, and the presence of the space causes problems such as a problem of preventing the insulator (connector) from being downsized and an unstable elastic deformation of the ground terminal.
In this regard, in the present invention, the housing integrally formed with the ground terminal is press-fitted to the insulator, so that such a problem does not occur.
