Description

Connector with joint

The present invention relates to a connector structure, and more particularly to a connector capable of first fixing a terminal block to a coupling seat and assembling the same into the insulating body.

Button, the connector refers to all connected components and their accessories on the electronic signal and power supply. It is a bridge for all signals. Its quality will affect the reliability of current and signal transmission, and also with electronics. The operation of the device is closely related. Generally speaking, various types of connectors have been provided on various electronic devices (such as smart phones, tablets, desktop computers, notebook computers, digital cameras, etc.) so that various electronic devices can By exchanging data, it is known that the connector can make electrical connections and signal transmission between the device and the device, components and components, and the system and the system, and is a basic component required to form a complete system.

According to the research, in the past ten years, for many Taiwanese manufacturers entering the connector industry, the connector industry is still a lucrative industry relative to other component industries. The main reason is that In the connector industry, the technology used in high- and low-order connector products is quite different. The aforementioned features make the positioning of related products between international manufacturers and Taiwanese manufacturers extremely clear and clear. In addition, due to the international The various connector products that are commissioned are required to have a wide range of application capabilities. This demanding product requirement also forces Taiwanese manufacturers who have commissioned OEMs to have different specialized projects to avoid The subsequent Red Sea (Chinese related manufacturers) competed.

However, as early as in the decade since 2008, Taiwanese manufacturers who used connectors as their main products have experienced and experienced an industrial crisis. Therefore, many Taiwanese manufacturers at the time clearly recognized that they only rely on the PC industry and are extremely vulnerable to PCs. The industry is sluggish, the barriers to entry are too low, and the industry is fiercely competitive, leading to a survival crisis that cannot continue to operate. Therefore, many Taiwanese manufacturers have adjusted their business strategies and adjusted accordingly. They can use the strategy of multi-transformation to cover the application of connector products to communication or consumer electronic products, such as mobile phones and game consoles... In this way, Taiwanese manufacturers who have relied heavily on connectors for computers and their peripheral devices have turned to the development and production of various consumer electronic products, displays, etc. in recent years. Base connector.

However, as mentioned above, the 2008 financial turmoil has broken the industry tacit understanding that many operators have long followed in the connector industry in Taiwan, such as the US, European and Japanese manufacturers that originally produced high-end or high-end technology connectors. Under the reality of the growing shortage of profits, the consideration began to produce low-end connectors, which seriously invaded the main product line that Taiwan connector manufacturers have mastered for many years. In response to this change in situation, Taiwan connector manufacturers must speed up. Step by step, and add a new strategy to take into account the points and aspects that have not been reviewed in the past, and to explore, develop and improve the various characteristics of the connector to provide better connector products in the industry, so that it is sufficient in the market. To have a role to play.

For example, in the structure of the conventional connector, the manufacturer usually fixes the plurality of metal terminals to a terminal block by injection molding, and then assembles the terminal block into an insulating body, but the applicant finds In the above structure, since the rear end of the metal terminal is largely exposed, and there is no protective measure, it is easy to be externally applied during the assembly process. It is bent to affect the assembly quality. Secondly, the thickness of the aforementioned terminal block is usually thin, resulting in insufficient strength and being easily damaged during assembly. Since the connector acts as an important communication bridge between the complex electronic devices, its structural strength and durability have always been valued, and the manufacturer will repeatedly repeatedly test the quality of the components of the connector during the production process. Therefore, how to effectively solve the aforementioned problems without greatly affecting the overall volume and appearance of the connector is a major subject for the creation of the present invention.

In order to stand out in a highly competitive market, the creators have been working hard for a long time with the rich practical experience of designing, processing and manufacturing various power supply or signal connectors for many years, and adhering to the spirit of excellence in research. After the experiment, I finally developed a connector with a combination of the creation, which was born with the creation of this creation, which effectively improved the assembly yield of the connector and provided users with better experience.
