Definitions
- the present invention relates to a connector, more particularly, relates to a RAST connector for home appliance system.
- RAST connector not only has many technical advantages, but also achieves a high modularized system.
- the standardized and modularized RAST connector system may be integrated with multiple single devices and a plurality of connectors, saving the installation time, and reducing the risk of human installation error. Meanwhile, since the number of components to be installed is reduced, it reduces the occupied space and the manufacturing cost of PCB.
- an additional chain structure is formed on the housing of the RAST connector.
- the additional chain structure is only used for linking the plurality of RAST connectors together. After the contact and the wire are crimped together, the additional chain structure must be cut off from the housing of the connector. Otherwise, it will hinder the match between the connector and a mating connector. That is, the additional chain structure is not a necessary feature of the final product of the connector, but a temporary feature.
- the present invention has been made to overcome or alleviate at least one aspect of the above mentioned disadvantages.
- a connector comprising: a housing having a first surface and a second surface opposite to each other in a thickness direction of the housing; a first foolproof installation key formed on the first surface of the housing and adapted to mate with a first foolproof installation slot formed in a mating connector; and a stop portion formed on the second surface of the housing and adapted to mate with a stop portion formed on the mating connector, wherein a hook is formed on the first foolproof installation key, and a recess, configured to mate with the hook, is formed in the stop portion of the connector, wherein the hook is adapted to be engaged into the recess, so that connectors are capable of being linked in a manner of one after another by engaging the hook of one connector to the recess of the another connector.
- the housing has a first end and a second end opposite to each other in a length direction thereof, an insertion slot extending in the length direction is formed in the housing, the connector comprises a contact located at the first end of the housing and held in the insertion slot, and a wire to be crimped with the contact together is inserted into the insertion slot from the second end of the housing.
- the first foolproof installation key is formed at a location on the first surface of the housing adjacent to the first end of the housing; and the stop portion of the connector is formed at a location on the second surface of the housing adjacent to the second end of the housing.
- a second foolproof installation key is formed on the second surface of the housing and adapted to mate with a second foolproof installation slot of the mating connector.
- the second foolproof installation key is formed at a location on the second surface of the housing adjacent to the first end of the housing.
- a plurality of first foolproof installation keys are formed on the first surface of the housing, and the plurality of first foolproof installation keys are same to or different from each other in size and/or shape.
- a plurality of second foolproof installation keys are formed on the second surface of the housing, and the plurality of second foolproof installation keys are same to or different from each other in size and/or shape.
- the plurality of first foolproof installation keys are arranged on the first surface of the housing in a width direction of the housing; and the plurality of second foolproof installation keys are arranged on the second surface of the housing in the width direction of the housing.
- the stop portion of the connector comprises a stopping face, when the connector and the mating connector are mated together, the stopping face of the stop portion of the connector abuts against a stopping face of the stop portion of the mating connector, so as to prevent one of the connector and the mating connector from being excessively inserted into the other.
- the connector and the mating connector are not capable of being mated together if the first foolproof installation key and the second foolproof installation key of the connector are not aligned to the first foolproof installation slot and the second foolproof installation slot of the mating connector, respectively.
- the connector is a RAST connector.
- the existing and necessary foolproof installation key on the connector is used as the chain structure to link connectors, instead of providing an additional and unnecessary chain structure. Thereby, it saves the cost. Furthermore, the foolproof installation key is used as the necessary feature of the final product; it does not need to cut off the existing and necessary foolproof installation key in the following process, simplifying the manufacturing process of the connector.
- a connector comprising: a housing having a first surface and a second surface opposite to each other in a thickness direction of the housing; a first foolproof installation key formed on the first surface of the housing and adapted to mate with a first foolproof installation slot formed in a mating connector; and a stop portion formed on the second surface of the housing and adapted to mate with a stop portion formed on the mating connector, wherein a hook is formed on the first foolproof installation key, and a recess, configured to mate with the hook, is formed in the stop portion of the connector, wherein the hook is adapted to be engaged into the recess, so that connectors are linked in a manner of one after another by engaging the hook of one connector to the recess of the another connector.

- a pair of first foolproof installation keys 110 are formed on the first surface 100a of the housing 100 and adapted to mate with a pair of first foolproof installation slots 110' formed in a mating connector 10' (see Fig.4 ).
- the first foolproof installation keys 110 of the connector 10 must be aligned to the first foolproof installation slots 110' of the mating connector 10' before mating the connector 10 and the mating connector 10' together; otherwise, the connector 10 and the mating connector 10' cannot be mated together.
- the first foolproof installation keys 110 may prevent the connector 10 from being incorrectly connected, for example, connected to the mating connector 10' in an incorrect posture or connected to a mismatched connector.
- a pair of stop portions 130 are formed on the second surface 100b of the housing 100 and adapted to mate with a pair of stop portions 130' formed on the mating connector 10' (see Fig.4 ). In this way, when the connector 10 and the mating connector 10' are mated together, the stop portions 130 of the connector 10 abut against the stop portions 130' of the mating connector 10', so as to prevent one of the connector 10 and the mating connector 10' from being excessively inserted into the other.
- the stop portion 130 of the connector 10 comprises a stopping face 132.
- the stopping face 132 of the stop portion 130 of the connector 10 abuts against a stopping face 132' of the stop portion 130' of the mating connector 10', so as to prevent one of the connector 10 and the mating connector 10' from being excessively inserted into the other.
- the first end of the housing 100 of the connector 10 is inserted into an insertion chamber of the housing 100' of the mating connector 10', and a plug 101' of the mating connector 10' is inserted into the insertion slot 101 of the connector 10.
- a contact 102' on the plug 101' of the mating connector 10' electrically contacts the contact 102 in the insertion slot 101 of the connector 10.
- first foolproof installation key 110 and the stop portion 130 both are necessary structure features of the connector 10. Thereby, it does not need to cut off these necessary structure features after crimping the wire and the contact 102 together. According to the embodiments of the present invention, these necessary structure features are constructed to be used as chain structures to link a plurality of connectors 10. Hereafter, it will describe it in detail with reference to drawings.
- a hook 111 is formed on the first foolproof installation key 110.
- a recess 131 configured to mate with the hook 111, is formed in the stop portion 130 of the connector 10.
