It can be provided as much as possible. A plurality of holes or grooves into which the terminal 10 is inserted may be formed in the protrusion 110 of the first housing 100, and a conductor that can be electrically connected to the terminal 10 is disposed in the holes or grooves. It can be.

For example, when the conductor is disposed in the hole or groove and the end of the terminal 10 is inserted into the hole or groove, the first housing 100 and the second housing 200 may be electrically connected to each other. .

Therefore, when insertion of the protrusion 110 of the first housing 100 into the recessed part 210 of the second housing 200 is completed, the terminal provided in the recessed part 210 of the second housing 200 ( 10) is inserted into a hole or groove provided in the protrusion 110 of the first housing 100, so that the first housing 100 and the second housing 200 can be electrically connected to each other.

Figure 2 is a diagram showing the first housing 100 coupled to the support plate 300. The support plate 300 is mounted on the recessed portion 210 of the second housing 200, and has a plurality of through holes 310 (310) into which the plurality of terminals 10 provided in the second housing 200 are inserted. 16) may be formed.

In addition, the support plate 300 is provided to be detachable from the first housing 100, and the second housing 200 is coupled to the first housing 100 or separates from the first housing 100. In this case, it may be provided to be movable with respect to the second housing 200.

The first housing 100 is formed on the protrusion 110 and may include a first hook 120 that is detachably coupled to the support plate 300. Additionally, the support plate 300 may include a second hook 320 that is detachably coupled to the first hook 120.

When the protrusion 110 of the first housing 100 is inserted into the recess 210 of the second housing 200, first, the first hook 120 formed on the protrusion 110 is formed on the support plate 300. It is coupled to the second hook 320, and in this state in which the first housing 100 and the support plate 300 are coupled, the first housing 100 continues to be inserted deeper into the depression 210, and thus The support plate 300 may also move downward with respect to the second housing 200 .

Figures 3 and 4 are diagrams showing part of the process of combining the first housing 100 and the second housing 200. As shown in FIG. 3, the second housing 200 is formed on the side of the second housing 200 and is coupled to the side of the support plate 300 to limit the free movement of the support plate 300. It may further include a fourth hook 220.

The fourth hook 220 may have a third protrusion 221 formed at an end, and a first through hole 350 into which the third protrusion 221 is inserted may be formed on the side of the support plate 300. there is.

When the protrusion 110 is inserted deeper into the recessed groove, the third protrusion 221 provided at the end of the fourth hook 220 formed on the side of the second housing 200 can be pressed.

When the corner portion of the lower surface of the protrusion 110 presses the third protrusion 221, as shown in FIG. 4, the fourth hook 220 elastically deforms in the outer direction of the protrusion 110 to form the first through hole. It can be deviated from (350).

That is, when the protrusion 110 is inserted into the through hole, the lower surface of the protrusion 110 presses the third protrusion 221, and the fourth hook 220 is elastically deformed to the first through hole ( 350).

Figure 5 is a diagram showing the first housing 100 coupled to the support plate 300 and the second housing 200. Referring to FIG. 5, when the first housing 100 is completely coupled to the support plate 300 and the second housing 200, compared to FIG. 2, the lower surface of the support plate 300 and the recessed portion 210 It can be seen that the separation space (SP) between the inner bottom surfaces is filled.

That is, in the process of inserting the first housing 100 into the second housing 200 and completing the coupling, the support plate 300 is inside the depression 210 of the first housing 100 as much as the space SP. It can be seen that it moved toward the floor.

FIG. 6 is a diagram for explaining the coupling structure of the first housing 100, the support plate 300, and the second housing 200 in the state of FIG. 5.

Referring to FIG. 6, an escape groove 111 formed by recessing the outer surface of the protrusion 110 is formed on the side of the protrusion 110, and the protrusion 110 is inserted into the depression 210. Once completed, the third protrusion 221 can be placed in the escape groove 111.

In addition, the protrusion 110 is inserted into the inside of the support plate 300, the fourth hook 220 is disposed outside the support plate 300, and the support plate 300 has the escape groove ( A second through hole 360 into which the third protrusion 221 is inserted may be formed in a region corresponding to 111).

Therefore, when the first housing 100 is completely coupled to the support plate 300 and the second housing 200, the third protrusion 221 deviates from the first through hole 350, as shown in FIG. 6. is inserted into the second through hole 360, and the third protrusion 221 may be disposed in the escape groove 111.

7 to 11 are diagrams to explain the process of separating the first housing 100 from the support plate 300 and the second housing 200.

As shown in FIG. 7, in order to separate the first housing 100 from the second housing 200, when the first housing 100 moves upward with respect to the second housing 200, the escape groove 111 ) presses the third protrusion 221, and the third hook 340 can be elastically deformed and separated from the second through hole 360.

At this time, the first housing 100 and the support plate 300 are coupled to each other by the first hook 120 and the second hook 320, so as the first housing 100 moves upward, the support plate ( 300) can also move upward.

Referring to FIGS. 8 and 9 , the first hook 120 formed on the first housing 100 and the second hook 320 formed on the support plate 300 may each be provided with a protrusion. That is, the first hook 120 is formed with a first protrusion 121 protruding in the direction of the second hook 320, and the second hook 320 is arranged to face the first protrusion 121. A second protrusion 321 may be formed.

At this time, when the protrusion 110 is inserted into the depression 210, each surface where the first protrusion 121 and the second protrusion 321 contact is formed as an inclined surface, and the protrusion 110 ) is separated from the depression 210, at least one of the surfaces where the first protrusion 121 and the second protrusion 321 are in contact may be formed as a flat surface.

Due to the structure of the first protrusion 121 and the second protrusion 321 described above, when the protrusion 110 moves downward to be inserted into the depression 210, the first protrusion 121 and the second protrusion ( Due to the inclined surface structure of 321, the first hook 120 and the second hook 320 can be easily combined.

Conversely, when the protrusion 110 moves upward to separate from the depression 210, the first hook 120 and the first protrusion 120 due to the planar structure of at least one of the first protrusion 121 and the second protrusion 321. The second hook 320 is not easily separated, and the support plate 300 may also move upward as the protrusion 110 moves upward.

Referring to FIGS. 9 and 10, the support plate 300 is provided to be movable with respect to the second housing 200, and includes a third hook 340 detachably coupled to the second housing 200. This can be formed.

At this time, the third hook 340 is inserted into a hole formed in the second housing 200, and a guide bar 341 moves relative to the second housing 200 along the hole, and the guide bar 341 ) It may include a stopper 342 formed at the end to limit the moving distance of the support plate 300.

Referring to FIG. 9, the surface of the stopper 342 that contacts the second housing 200 may be formed as a flat surface, and the surface opposite to the flat surface may be formed as an inclined surface. Therefore, when the support plate 300 is coupled to the second housing 200, the third hook 340 is easily elastically deformed due to the inclined surface of the stopper 342 and inserted into the hole of the second housing 200. It can be.

However, when separating the support plate 300 from the second housing 200, the plane of the stopper 342 contacts the side lower surface of the second housing 200, and as a result, the worker uses the stopper 342. Unless elastically deformed by pressure, the support plate 300 cannot be easily separated from the second housing 200.

Therefore, as shown in FIG. 9, the stopper 342 of the support plate 300, which moves upward as the protrusion 110 moves upward, contacts the lower surface of the side of the second housing 200. Once you do this, you can no longer move upward. As a result, the support plate 300 stops, and if the protrusion 110 continues to move upward, the protrusion 110 and the support plate 300 may be separated from each other.

That is, referring to FIG. 10, when the support plate 300 stops and the protrusion 110 continues to move upward, the second hook 320 is elastically deformed and the second protrusion 321 is formed accordingly with an arrow pointing to the right. They move together, and as a result, the first hook 120 and the second hook 320 are separated from each other, and eventually, the protrusion 110 and the support plate 300 can be separated from each other.

In other words, when the protrusion 110 is separated from the recess 210, the first protrusion 121 contacts and presses the second protrusion 321, so that the first housing 100 is separated from the protrusion 210. The support plate 300 is moved a certain distance in the direction of movement of 110, and when the certain distance is exceeded, the first housing 100 may be separated from the support plate 300. At this time, it is natural that the constant distance may vary depending on the length of the guide bar 341.

In addition, as described above, when the first housing 100 is separated from the support plate 300, the second hook 320 elastically deforms to connect the first hook 120 to the second hook 320. ) can be separated from. As the first hook 120 is separated from the second hook 320, the first housing 100 including the protrusion 110 can be completely separated from the support plate 300 and the second housing 200.

The second hook 320 may be formed on a rib 330 that protrudes from the inner lower surface of the support plate 300 in the direction of movement of the support plate 300. The second hook 320 may be formed integrally with the rib 330, but the second hook 320 needs to have a structure capable of elastic deformation.

Accordingly, a slit 331 may be formed in the rib 330 to limit the width of the second hook 320 so that the second hook 320 can be elastically deformed. Due to this structure, the second hook 320 is formed integrally with the rib 330 and can be elastically deformed.

Meanwhile, as shown in FIG. 11, the support plate 300 moves upward and further upward movement is stopped by the stopper 342, and the first hook 120 and the second hook 320 are separated from each other. When the protrusion 110 is separated from the support plate 300, the third protrusion 221 of the fourth hook 220 coupled to the second through hole 360 can be coupled to the first through hole 350 again. there is. This structure can be provided because the support plate 300 moves with respect to the second housing 200 in which the fourth hook 220 is provided.

Figure 12 is a cross-sectional perspective view to explain the combined state of the support play and the second housing 200 when the first housing 100 is separated. Figure 13 is an enlarged view showing a portion of Figure 12.

As described above, the support plate 300 may be provided to be movable in the second housing 200. Accordingly, the support plate 300 may be provided to be movable with respect to the terminal 10 provided in the second housing 200.

When the first housing 100 is completely separated from the support plate 300 and the second housing 200, as shown in FIG. 13, the third protrusion 221 of the fourth hook 220 penetrates the first It is coupled to the hole 350, and a separation space (SP) may be formed between the lower surface of the support plate 300 and the bottom surface of the recessed portion 210 of the second housing 200. When the first housing 100 is completely coupled to the support plate 300 and the second housing 200, the third protrusion 221 of the fourth hook 220 is coupled to the second through hole 360, The separation space (SP) can be filled.

Figure 14 is a diagram for explaining the process of separating the first housing 100 from the support plate 300. As described above, the first hook 120 can be separated from the second hook 320 by elastically deforming the second hook 320.

At this time, the first hook 120 may be formed integrally with the protrusion 110 on the first housing 100 by, for example, injection molding. Accordingly, when the first hook 120 and the second hook 320 are coupled or separated from each other, the first hook 120 does not elastically deform, and only the second hook 320 can elastically deform. However, it is not limited to this, and the first hook 120 may also be provided to be elastically deformable.

Figures 15 and 16 are perspective views showing the support plate 300 of one embodiment. Hereinafter, the third hook 340 and rib 330 will be described in more detail with reference to FIGS. 15 and 16.

Referring to FIG. 15, the third hook 340 may protrude from the lower edge of the support plate 300 in the direction of movement of the support plate 300. Additionally, the third hooks 340 may be provided in a pair symmetrical to each other with respect to the center of the support plate 300 at the edge of the lower surface of the support plate 300. At this time, in particular, the stoppers 342 are arranged symmetrically to each other and may serve to limit the moving distance of the guide bar 341.

Additionally, the third hook 340 may be disposed on both sides of the lower edge of the support flat. Therefore, as shown in FIG. 15, for example, a total of four may be provided. However, the number of third hooks 340 is not limited to this.

As shown in FIG. 16, the ribs 330 may be provided in a pair symmetrical to each other at the center of the support plate 300. However, in another embodiment, three or more ribs 330 may be provided.

The rib 330 prevents the terminal 10 coupled to the support plate 300 from being deformed or damaged when an external object, such as a work tool, enters the inner part of the support plate 300. It can play a deterrent role.

That is, when the external object intrudes into the inner part of the support plate 300, the tip of the external object contacts the top of the protruding rib 330, so that the external object penetrates the support plate deeper than the top of the rib 330. (300) Intrusion into the inner part and deformation or damage of the terminal 10 disposed in the inner part can be prevented.

In an embodiment, the ribs 330 have the effect of suppressing deformation and damage of the terminal 10 due to intrusion of external objects.

Therefore, it may be advantageous in terms of protecting the terminal 10 to form as many ribs 330 on the support plate 300 as possible. However, as the number of ribs 330 increases, the structure of the protrusion 110 of the first housing 100 increases. becomes complicated and the space to install the terminal 10 may become insufficient, so the location and number of ribs 330 can be appropriately selected by taking this into consideration.

Figure 17 is a perspective view to explain the combined state of the support play and the second housing 200 when the first housing 100 is separated. As described above, the lower portion of the support plate 300 may be formed with a through hole 310 through which the terminal 10 disposed in the second housing 200 is coupled.

When the protrusion 110 is separated from the recess 210, the through hole 310 may be located at the top of the terminal 10, as shown in FIG. 17. Conversely, when the protrusion 110 is completely inserted into the depression 210, that is, when the first housing 100, the support plate 300, and the second housing 200 are combined, the through hole 310 is It may be located below the terminal 10.

Due to this structure, when the protrusion 110 is coupled to the depression 210 or is separated from the depression 210, the support plate 300 is connected to the terminal 10 of the second housing 200 in the through hole 310. In the inserted state, it moves relative to the second housing 200 according to the moving direction of the protrusion 110, so when the first housing 100 and the second housing 200 are combined, in particular, the first housing 100 ), it is possible to prevent deformation and damage of the terminal 10 from occurring. This will be described in detail with reference to FIGS. 18 and 19.

Figure 18 is a perspective view showing the first housing 100 without the support plate 300 of the embodiment. Figure 19 is a perspective view showing the first housing 100 equipped with the support plate 300 of the embodiment. Figure 18 is used as a comparative example of the embodiment shown in Figure 19.

As shown in FIG. 18, when there is no support plate 300 in the embodiment, the protrusion 110 of the first housing 100 is inserted into the depression 210 of the second housing 200 or the depression 210 ), a plurality of terminals 10 arranged so that one end protrudes from the second housing 200 and a plurality of holes or grooves into which the plurality of terminals 10 are inserted into the first housing 100 If the protrusions 110 are misaligned or an uneven external force is applied to the protrusions 110 when they are inserted or separated, there is a high risk that the terminal 10 will be deformed or damaged.

However, as shown in FIG. 19, when the support plate 300 is mounted on the recessed portion 210, the protrusion 110 of the first housing 100 is connected to the recessed portion 210 of the second housing 200. When inserted into or separated from the recessed portion 210, the support plate 300 moves along the moving direction of the protrusion 110 and the terminals 10 of the second housing 200 are inserted into the through hole of the support plate 300. 310), deformation and damage can be effectively suppressed by the support plate 300.

That is, in the embodiment, when the protrusion 110 of the first housing 100 is inserted into or separated from the recessed portion 210 of the second housing 200, the support plate 300 is connected to the terminal. Since it supports (10) and moves in the same direction with the protrusion 110, deformation and damage of the terminals 10 due to abnormal movement of the protrusion 110 can be effectively suppressed.

Figure 20 is an exploded perspective view to explain the overall structure of the connector assembly of one embodiment. The connector assembly of the embodiment may further include a first spacer 400, a second spacer 500, a slider 600, a first sealing member 700, and a second sealing member 800.

The first spacer 400 is mounted on the first housing 100 and is electrically connected to terminals disposed in the first housing 100, that is, terminals 10 disposed in the second housing 200. It may serve to prevent them from being separated from the first housing 100.

The second spacer 500 is mounted on the second housing 200, and similarly to the first spacer 400, the terminals 10 disposed on the second housing 200 are separated from the second housing 200. It can play a role in suppressing

The slider 600 is coupled to the first housing 100 and may serve to couple or separate the protrusion 110 and the depression 210 from each other. That is, when the slider 600 is slid relative to the first housing 100 and tightly fitted into the first housing 100, the protruding portion 110 and the recessed portion 210 may be coupled to each other.

Conversely, when the slider 600 is released by sliding with respect to the first housing 100 in a state in which it is tightly fitted to the first housing 100, the protruding portion 110 and the recessed portion 210 may be separated from each other.

However, in another embodiment, the connector assembly is not provided with the slider 600, and the operator directly presses the protrusion 110 of the first housing 100 to connect the protrusion 110 to the second housing 200. It may be coupled to the recessed portion 210, or conversely, the protruding portion 110 may be separated from the recessed portion 210.

The first sealing member 700 is disposed between the coupling portion of the first housing 100 and the second housing 200, and therefore, moisture, etc. It can prevent foreign substances from penetrating.

The second sealing member 800 may be coupled to a coupling protrusion provided on the second housing 200, as shown in FIGS. 18 to 20. The second sealing member 800 can seal the gap between a mounting space (not shown) where the connector assembly is mounted and the outside of the mounting space, thereby preventing moisture and other foreign substances from penetrating through the gap.
