Description

Thin shrapnel connector

This creation relates to an electrical connector, and in particular to a thin shrapnel connector that reduces thickness and increases structural strength.

Connectors are widely used in various electronic devices, the connection between electronic components, with the continual evolution of the times, resulting in a variety of aspects, and different applications, which can be applied to battery modules Connection, board-to-board connection, wire-to-board connection.

Please refer to the first figure, which is a combined perspective view of a conventional battery connector; for example, the Republic of China Certificate No. M429202 patent, the conventional battery connector includes an insulative body 1 and a plurality of conductive terminals 2, the insulative body A plurality of terminal slots 3 extending through the front and rear end faces are arranged side by side, and the left and right slot walls of the terminal slots 3 protrude into the slots with a card edge 4, and the conductive terminals 2 are clamped and fixed in the terminal slots 3, The two ends of the conductive terminals 2 are outwardly protruded to form a retaining portion 5. When assembled, the conductive terminals 2 are pushed into the corresponding terminal slots 3, and are clamped to the card edges 4 and slots of the terminal slot 3 through the retaining portion 5. Between the bottom walls 6, the contact portion of the conductive terminal 2 protrudes from the upper end surface of the insulative housing 1.

The conductive terminal 2 can be assembled between the card edge 4 and the bottom wall 6 of the slot through the retaining portion 5, so that the conductive terminal 2 can be assembled in the terminal slot 3 of the insulative housing 1, and the snap-fit structure utilizes the card edge. 4 and the space formed by the bottom wall 6 of the groove is assembled with the conductive terminal 2, so the thickness of the card edge 4 and the bottom wall 6 of the groove is inevitably increased, so that the thickness of the connector cannot be made thinner, and the conductive terminal 2 is It is fixed in the terminal groove 3 by assembly, so the assembly structure is weak.

In view of this, it is indeed necessary to improve the conventional battery connector to solve the above drawbacks.

The main purpose of this creation is to provide a thin shrapnel connector that reduces the connection. The thickness of the connector makes the connector thinner.

A secondary objective of this creation is to provide a thin shrapnel connector that increases structural strength.

The present invention mainly provides a thin elastic connector, comprising an insulator and a plurality of conductive terminals spaced apart from the insulator, wherein the insulating system has a first plane, a second plane, and an interval through the first plane and the a plurality of through holes in the second plane, wherein the conductive terminals are respectively disposed in the through holes, and each has at least one fixing portion, a welded portion connecting the fixing portion, and one of the welded portions is bent And a connecting portion connecting the bent portion, the fixing portion is embedded and molded on the insulator, and the welded portion is exposed to the through hole, and is located at the second planar position, the curved portion is located Between the first plane and the second plane, the contact portion is exposed on the through hole and located at the first planar position.

Since the fixing portion of the conductive terminal of the present invention is embedded and formed on the insulator, it is not necessary to use the conventional card edge and the bottom wall of the groove for assembly, thereby reducing the overall thickness of the connector, and further, by using the embedded The type of the method can increase the bonding strength between the conductive terminal and the insulator.

The above and other objects, advantages and features of the present invention are apparent from the following detailed description of the preferred embodiments.

The second figure is a combined perspective view of the creation of the thin elastic connector.

The third figure is a perspective view of the conductive terminal of the creation.

The fourth figure is a combined sectional view of the creation of the thin elastic connector.

The fifth figure is a cross-sectional view of another combination of the creation thin elastic connector.

Please refer to the second figure, which is a combined perspective view of the thin elastic connector of the present invention. The thin elastic connector 100 of the present invention comprises: an insulator 10 having a first plane 11 and a second plane 12 and spaced apart therefrom. a plurality of through holes 13 of the first plane 11 and the second plane 12.

Please also refer to the third figure, which is a perspective view of the conductive terminal of the present invention; a plurality of conductive terminals 20 are disposed on the insulator 10 and are respectively located in the through holes 13, and each of the conductive terminals 20 is The fixing portion 21 is embedded with at least one fixing portion 21, a welding portion 22 connecting the fixing portion 21, a bending portion 23 connecting the welding portion 22, and a contact portion 24 connecting the bending portion 23. Inserting the insulator 10 on the insulator 10 (as shown in the fourth figure). In the present embodiment, the fixing portion 21 is plural and disposed on opposite sides of the soldering portion 22, and the soldering is performed. The portion 22 is exposed to the through hole 13 and located at the second plane 12, and the curved portion 23 is located between the first plane 11 and the second plane 12 (as shown in FIG. 5), the contact portion The 24 series is exposed on the through hole 13 and is located at the position of the first plane 11.

In order to further understand the characteristics of this creation, the use of technical means and the expected results, we will use the way of this creation to describe it. I believe that we can have a deeper and more specific understanding of this creation, as follows: Referring to the fourth and fifth figures, the conductive terminal 20 of the present invention is bonded to the insulator 10 by means of insert molding, so that the insulator 10 does not increase the thickness of the conventional card edge 4 and the bottom wall 6 of the groove. The thickness of the connector can be reduced, and the bonding strength between the conductive terminals 20 and the insulator 10 can be increased. Further, since the curved portion 23 of the conductive terminals 20 is located in the first plane 11 and the second The plane 12 is so that when it is assembled with a pair of connectors (not shown), the mating connector does not press against the curved portion 23, and affects the elastic covering force of the conductive terminal 20.
