Description

Vertical electrical connector

This creation is about electrical connectors, especially a vertical electrical connector.

The existing electrical connectors can be roughly divided into horizontal and vertical according to the arrangement of the circuit boards. Whether it is a horizontal electrical connector or a vertical electrical connector, the outer casing extends generally out of a plurality of soldering legs, and the soldering legs are respectively inserted into the circuit board and soldered and fixed, thereby fixing the electrical connector to the circuit board and soldering The foot is electrically connected to the circuit board and has a grounding effect.

The horizontal electrical connector is laid flat on the circuit board, and the plugging direction is perpendicular to the soldering leg. Therefore, when the horizontal electrical connector is plugged and unplugged, the soldering leg can hook the circuit board and effectively resist the electrical connector during plugging and unplugging. External force; when the horizontal electrical connector is pulled laterally, it is not easily damaged by torque because it abuts against the circuit board.

The vertical electrical connector is erected on the circuit board, and its insertion and removal direction is parallel to the solder fillet, and is often pulled laterally to withstand lateral torque during use. Moreover, the welding script is inflated in a sheet shape, and the soldering leg directly bears the torque. Therefore, when the vertical vertical electrical connector is laterally pulled, the soldering leg is easily bent and damaged due to the torque. In order to reinforce the structural strength of the vertical electrical connector to withstand torque, it is not an efficient solution to increase the thickness of the electrical connector housing or to increase the cost by screwing in a common manner. Other less cost-effective solutions, such as reinforcing the structural strength by auxiliary welds, extend laterally from the outer casing to the auxiliary solder-welded circuit board. The auxiliary soldering foot is generally extended in the parallel insertion direction of the soldering foot, and then the auxiliary soldering foot is bent outwardly from the outer casing to extend laterally. The purpose of the auxiliary soldering leg laterally extending is to form the force arm to disperse the soldering foot to bear Torque. However, the bending line between the auxiliary soldering foot and the outer casing extends in the lateral direction of the vertical electrical connector. When the vertical electrical connector is laterally pulled, the bending line between the auxiliary soldering foot and the outer casing is still easily deformed. damage.
