Please refer to FIG. 1, which is a schematic diagram of the structure of the light source module connector of the first embodiment of the present creation. In FIG. 1, the light source module connector 10 is applied to a light source module, for example, the light source module is a backlight layer of a liquid crystal display screen.

The light source module connector 10 includes a board end 12, a wire end 14 and a wire 16. In another embodiment, the light source module connector 10 may further include a cover 18 and a wire end 14 to cover the wire 16 in the accommodating space SP mentioned later.

Refer also to Figure 2 for a detailed schematic diagram of the plate end of Figure 1 of this creation. In FIG. 2, the board end 12 forms a first conductive terminal 122 and a first fastener 124. The board end module 12 can be disposed in the light source module, so that one end of the first conductive terminal 122 is electrically connected to the light source module for transmitting power or electronic signals. Here, twelve first conductive terminals 122 are used as an example. The board end 12 only needs to retain the first conductive terminals 122 that need to be connected to the wires of the wire 16, and the unconnected parts are removed. The first fastener 124 is formed on the periphery of the plate end 12. Here, the first fastener 124 is illustrated with an O-shaped opening as an example. In other embodiments, the first fastener 124 may be a bump. The design of the structure of the first fastener 124 is related to the structure of the second fastener 146 mentioned later.

Also refer to Figure 3, which is a detailed schematic diagram illustrating the line end of Figure 1 of this creation. The wire end 14 is combined with the board end 12. In FIG. 3, the wire end 14 forms an accommodation space SP, an opening 144 and a second fastener 146. When the board end 12 and the wire end 14 are combined, the second buckle 146 buckles the first buckle 124 so that the wire end 14 is fixed to the board end 12 and the opening 144 corresponds to the first conductive terminal 122. The accommodating space SP can be used to accommodate the wire 16. Here, six openings 144 are taken as an example for illustration, which respectively cover the part of the wire 16. The second buckle 146 is formed on the periphery of the wire end 14, where the second buckle 146 Taking the protrusion as an example, in other embodiments, the second locking member 146 may be an O-shaped opening. Therefore, when the second buckle 146 buckles the first buckle 124, the bump is buckled in the O-shaped opening, so that the wire end 14 is fixed to the board end 12. In another embodiment, the wire end 14 may further include a positioning post 148.

Also refer to Figure 4, which illustrates the top view of the wire in Figure 1 of this creation. The wire 16 may be arranged in the accommodation space SP. In FIG. 4, the wire 16 has an insulating layer 162 and a plurality of wires. Among them, the wires are for convenience of description, and a first wire 164 and a second wire 166 are taken as examples for description. The insulating layer 16 covers the first wire 164 and the second wire 166 so that the first wire 164 and the second wire 164 are electrically isolated from the external environment of the wire 16. Also in this embodiment, the insulating layer 16 is removed at a place of the wire 16 corresponding to the opening 144 while simultaneously revealing the first wire 164 and the second wire 166, that is, the wires are located there without the insulating layer 16 Electrical isolation. In another embodiment, the wire 16 may further include a positioning hole 168 corresponding to the positioning post 148, so that after the positioning post 148 is combined with the positioning hole 168, the first wire 164 and the second wire 166 are positioned in the opening 144 .

Also refer to FIG. 5, which illustrates a top view of the wire contacting the first conductive terminal of FIG. 1 of the present invention. In FIG. 5, by arranging the position of the first conductive terminal 122 on the board end 12, it is determined that the other end of the first conductive terminal 122 passes through the opening 144 to electrically contact one end of the first wire 164 or the second wire 166. In short, since the insulating layer 16 near the opening 144 is removed, all the wires (including the first wire 164 and the second wire 166) are exposed.

Therefore, as long as the position of the first conductive terminal 122 is designed and configured, the first conductive terminal 122 can be used to contact the set conductive wire. Here, the first conductive terminal 122 is connected to the first wire 164.

Please refer to FIG. 6, which is a schematic structural diagram of the light source module connector of the second embodiment of the present creation applied to the light source module. In Fig. 6, the light source module connector 10' is similarly applied to the light source module 2. The light source module connector 10' has the same board end 12 and wire end 14 as in the first embodiment. The difference lies in the part of the wire 16'. In another embodiment, the light source module connector 10' may also include a cover 18, and the function of the cover 18 is as described above.

Here, the board end 12 forms a first conductive terminal 122, a second conductive terminal 126, and a first buckle 124. Refer to FIG. 7 together. The first conductive terminal 122 here represents a part that needs to be connected, and the second conductive terminal 122 The terminal 126 here means that it does not need to be turned on. Here, the total number of the first conductive terminals 122 and the second conductive terminals 126 is described by taking 20 as an example.

The description of the terminal 14 is as described above, and will not be repeated here.

Refer also to Figure 8 to illustrate the top view of the wire of Figure 6 of the present creation. In FIG. 8, the wire 16' is different from the aforementioned wire 16'. The insulating layer 162 of the wire 16 is completely removed at the opening 144. The wire 16' only removes the insulating layer at a particular wire. In this embodiment Here, it is assumed that the first wire 164 needs to be designed to connect the first conductive terminal 122 and the second wire 166 without connecting the second conductive terminal 126. Therefore, by removing the insulating layer 162 according to the wire 16' to reveal the first wire 164, it can be determined that the other end of the first conductive terminal 122 passes through the opening 144 to electrically contact the first wire 164. In addition, the wire 16' only removes the insulating layer 162 at one of the first wires 164 and does not remove the insulating layer 162 at one of the second wires 166, so it passes through the opening 144 at the other end of the second conductive terminal 126. When contacting the insulating layer plate 162, the second conductive terminal 126 is insulated from the second wire 166, and there is no electrical connection.

Therefore, as long as the first wire 164 is designed to further remove the insulating layer 162, it can be used to selectively conduct conduction with the first conductive terminal 122 or the second conductive terminal 126.

According to the above description, since the first embodiment selects the wires by the conductive terminals of the board end 12, it is called the board end type; in addition, the second embodiment uses the wire 16' to remove the position of the insulating layer 162 to reveal Conductive terminals are used for wires, so they are called wire type. It is worth noting that the board end type and the wire type can be used in the same backlight layer at the same time, and the type used at the same time can be called a hybrid type.

Refer also to FIG. 9, which is a structural diagram of the light source module connector of the third embodiment of the present creation. In FIG. 9, the light source module connector 10" has the board end 12, the wire end 14, the wire 16 and the cover 18 of the first embodiment, or the board end 12, the wire end of the second embodiment 14. In addition to the wire 16' and the cover 18, it further includes a wire configuration adapter 20.

The descriptions of the board end 12, the wire end 14, the wires 16, 16 and the cover 18 are as described above and will not be repeated here.

The wire configuration connector 20 has a plurality of pins (not shown). These pins can be connected to the other ends of the first wire 164 and the second wire 166. The pins can be connected to the first wire 164 through jumpers, transitions, etc. Configured with the second wire 166.

This creation has been disclosed in preferred embodiments above, but those familiar with this technology should understand that the embodiments are only used to describe the creation, and should not be interpreted as limiting the scope of this creation. It should be noted that all changes and replacements equivalent to the embodiments should be included in the scope of this creation. Therefore, the protection scope of this creation shall be subject to the scope of the patent application.
