Definitions

  • the present invention relates in general to a plugging structure of an electric connector, and more particularly, to an electric connector having a handle allowing the electric connector to be easily connected or disconnected.
  • FIG. 1 shows an ATA connector 10a which includes an insulation body 101a and a cover 102a.
  • a narrow slit 103a is formed between insulation body 101a and the cover 102a allowing a paper tab 104a to extend through.
  • the paper tab 104a and the ribbon cable 105a are clipped to the insulation body 101a.
  • the ATA connector 10a can be easily removed from the socket by pulling the paper tab 104a from the ATA connector 10a.
  • FIG 3 uses a lift bar 106 instead of the paper tab 104a.
  • the present invention is to provide an electric connector with an insulation body and a cover.
  • the insulation body has a pair of opposing elongate surfaces and two end surfaces between the elongate surfaces.
  • the elongate surfaces and the end surfaces form a space in which a plurality of conductive terminals are embedded.
  • the cover has a handle and a pair of opposing side surfaces extending from two elongate edges of the handle. 6.
  • the handle includes a cylindrical stick topped with a spherical member.
  • the interior surface of the side surfaces has a locking mechanism, such that when the insulation body is inserted into the side surfaces of the cover, the insulation body can be secured within the cover.
  • the handle has a curved top portion and a recessed lower portion with rough surfaces thereon, such that the user can easily plug the connector in a socket or remove the connector from the socket by pushing and pulling the handle.
  • the handle may have a flat top surface and two curved recessed side rough surfaces or a flat top surface and two flat rough surfaces.
  • the handle may be in the form of a stick topped with a spherical member.
  • the connector 10 is a serial ATA connector including an insulation body 1 having a pair of opposing elongate surfaces 11 and pair of end surfaces 12 between the elongate surfaces 11.
  • the elongate surfaces 11 and the end surfaces 12 form a rectangular space in which a plurality of conductive terminals 2 are installed.
  • the end surfaces 12 extend over the elongate surfaces 11, and the conductive terminals 2 extend to the same level of the end surfaces 12.
  • Each of the conductive terminals 2 includes a base split into a connection part and a piercing part 21.
  • the connection parts (not shown) are located at the elongate surfaces 11, while the piercing parts 21 extend to the same level of the end surfaces 12.
  • the piercing parts 21 are connected to a ribbon cable 3.
  • the connector 10 further includes a cover 4 having handle 41 and two elongate surfaces extending downward from two elongate edges of the handle 41.
  • the handle 41 and the elongate surfaces form a space for receiving the protruding portions of the conductive terminals 2 therein, such that the conductive terminals 2 can be enclosed within the elongate surfaces of the cover 4 and the end surfaces 12 of the insulation body 1.
  • the handle 41 has a curved top portion allowing the user to hold it by one hand, and a lower recess portion 411 with a rough surface 412, such that the user can easily grab the handle 41 at the recess portion 411.
  • the lower portions of the conductive terminals 2 are inserted into the insulation body 1, while the piercing portions 21 extend between the side surfaces 12 and connect to the ribbon cable 3.
  • the insulation body 1 is then covered with the cover 4.
  • the internal surface of the elongate surfaces of the cover 4 has a locking mechanism for locking the cover 4 with the insulation body 1.
  • the user To plug the electric connector 10 in a socket, the user only need to hold the handle 41 of the cover 4, and align and press the electric connector 10 against the socket. To remove the electric connector 10 from the socket, the user can simply pull the electric connector 10 at the handle 41 upwardly.
  • top portion of the handle 41 can also be a flat surface as shown in Figure 6.
  • Figure 7 shows another embodiment of the handle 41.
  • the handle 41 has two flat rough surfaces 412 instead of curved or recessed surfaces.
  • the top surface of the handle 41 is also flat in this embodiment.
  • the handle 41 is in the form of a cylindrical stick 421 having a spherical top.
  • the diameter of the spherical top is larger than the diameter of the cylindrical stick 421.
  • the handle 41 is in the form of an elongate plate and an elongate cylinder on top of the elongate plate.
  • the above electric connector 1 uses various types of cover 4 having a handle 41 allowing user to easily hold the connector 1, so as to plug the electric connector 10 in a socket or remove the electric connector 10 from the socket.
