C) [0005] compared to the prior art 'the connector protection device can be fixed on a circuit board' to receive the interface on the circuit board in the receiving portion, and a body of the connector plugged into the interface It is housed between the two elastic arms to protect the connector 'to prevent the connector from coming loose. [Embodiment] [0006] Referring to Figures 1 and 2, a preferred embodiment of the connector protection device 1 of the present invention is used to prevent the connector 20 from being ejected from a corresponding interface 33 on a circuit board 30. The connector 2 includes a body 21 and a cable 23. The circuit board 30 is provided with two card holes 35 at two opposite corners of the interface 33. 100100146 Form No. A0101 Page 3 of 1 Page 1002000242-0 201230537 [0007] The side connector protection device 10 includes a hollow receiving portion 12 that is open at the front and rear ends, and a housing portion 1-2 that is respectively separated by the receiving portion Two outwardly curved resilient arms 14 extending rearwardly from opposite sides. The front end of the receiving portion 12 is provided with two elastic legs 123 corresponding to the two card holes 35 of the circuit board 30. Each of the opposite side edges of the elastic arm 14 extends perpendicularly inwardly from the receiving portion 12 to a fixing plate 142. A fixing hook 143 extends from a side of the two fixing plates 142 of the elastic arm 14 away from the elastic arm 14. The two hooks 143 have the opposite direction of the test. The two fixing plates 142 of the other elastic arms 14 are respectively provided with a card slot 145. A baffle 146 is attached to the front end of each of the two fixing plates 142 of each of the elastic arms 4. Each of the baffles 146 is provided with a semi-circular notch 147 on a side remote from the corresponding elastic arm brace 4. Referring to FIG. 2 and FIG. 3, during assembly, the interface 33 on the circuit board 30 is inserted into the receiving portion 12 of the connector protection device 1 such that the two legs 123 of the connector protection device 10 pass through the circuit. The two corresponding card holes 35 of the board 30 are placed on the side of the remote circuit board 30 facing away from the interface 33. Thereby, the connector protection device 10 is fixed to the way-up board 30. At this time, the end of the interface 33 is exposed at the rear side of the accommodating portion 12. The body 21 of the connector 2 is inserted into the interface 33. The body 21 is located between the interface 33 and the baffle 146 of the two resilient arms 14. The two resilient arms 14 are pressed against each other to elastically deform the two resilient arms 14. The two hooks 143 of one of the elastic arms 14 are elastically deformed against the two fixing plates 42 of the other elastic arms 14 and then slid along the inner sides of the two fixing plates 142 respectively until the two hooks 143 are respectively facing the other A latching groove 145 is formed in the two fixing plates 142 of the elastic arm 14. The elastic hooks 143 of the two latching hooks 143 are disposed in the two latching slots 145. Thereby, the two elastic arms 14 are locked. At this time, the two baffles 1 4 6 are abutted. The body 21 of the connector 20 is surrounded by 100100146.

The notches 147 of the two baffles 146 are facing each other and are enclosed by a perforation for the cable 23 of the connector 20 to pass through. When the connector 20 is to be removed, the two hooks 143 are pressed toward each other to disengage the two hooks 143 from the corresponding card slots 145. The two resilient arms 14 are flexibly retracted outwardly so that the connector 20 can be easily removed from the interface 33. In other embodiments, the ends of the two elastic arms 14 (ie, the end away from the receiving portion 12) can be locked by other means, such as hooks and slots that can be engaged with each other on the two baffles 146. . In other embodiments, the baffle 146 may not have a notch 147. When the two resilient arms 14 are locked to each other, there is a gap between the two baffles 146 to allow the cable 23 of the connector 20 to pass through. In other embodiments, the connector protection device 10 can be secured to the circuit board 30 by other means, such as screw locking or the like. In summary, the present invention has indeed met the requirements of the invention patent, and the patent application is filed according to law. However, the above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention, and it is not possible to limit the scope of the patent application of the present invention. Equivalent modifications or variations made by persons skilled in the art in light of the present invention are intended to be included within the scope of the following claims.
