Wire-to-Board Connector Structure

This creation is related to an electrical connector, especially a wire-to-board connector structure.

Press, among the existing electrical connectors, such as wire-to-board connectors, have been widely used in various electronic products; it is mainly a board-end connector on a circuit board, and provides a cable with a cable Or the cable end connector for plugging. Generally speaking, this kind of connector can be plugged into the board-end connector by two insertion methods, such as horizontal or vertical.

However, in the vertical insertion direction, in order to increase the stability of the above-mentioned connector after insertion, there can be buckle arms on the two sides of the wire-end connector to be buckled on the board-end connector to prevent insertion. Accidentally left. However, it must be visually positioned when inserting, which means that the buckle arm of the wire end connector must be aligned with the corresponding buckle edge of the board end connector before it can be inserted smoothly; otherwise, it is easy to cause mutual collision and It is inconvenient for the insertion operation, and even damages the connector components.

In view of this, in order to improve and solve the above-mentioned deficiencies, the author of this book has devoted himself to research and the application of academic principles, and finally proposed a book with a reasonable design and effective improvement of the above deficiencies.

Please refer to FIG. 1 and FIG. 2 , which are a three-dimensional exploded view of the present creation and a three-dimensional combined view from another perspective, respectively. The present invention provides a wire-to-board connector structure, including an insulating base 1, a plurality of terminals 2, and a metal shell 3; wherein:

The insulating base 1 has a base portion 10 extending laterally, and side portions 11 extending from two sides of the base portion 10 to form a “U”-shaped body to form a socket 12, and the terminals 2 It is mounted on the base portion 10 and protrudes toward the plug port 12 , so as to be used for a mating connector (as shown in FIG. 3 ) to be plugged.

The metal shell 3 is covered on the insulating base 1 and has a cover 30 and two arms 31 extending from two sides of the cover 30 corresponding to the base 10 of the insulating base 1 . The two arm portions 31 are respectively covered on the two side portions 11 of the insulating base 1 . In addition, at least one locking rib 300 can be protruded from the front edge of the cover portion 30 of the metal casing 3 to be locked at the front end of the base portion 10 of the insulating base 1 .

Please also refer to FIG. 3 , the above-mentioned docking connector includes a docking body 4 , a plurality of docking terminals 5 disposed in the docking body 4 , and a metal cover 6 covering the docking body 4 . The mating body 4 can be fitted into the insertion port 12 of the insulating base 1, and is provided with a plurality of terminal sockets 40 corresponding to the terminals 2, so that the mating terminals 5 are respectively embedded in the terminal sockets 40, and the mating terminals 5 are respectively embedded in the terminal sockets 40. The terminal 5 is electrically connected to a wire connector 50. The wire connector 50 can be formed by a row of wires or a plurality of cables side by side, and is extended from the rear end of the mating body 4, so that when it is inserted into the mating connector, the The terminal 2 can be electrically connected to its mating terminal 5 .

As mentioned above, the metal shell 3 is provided with a buckle edge 310 hollowed out from the outer lower edge of the metal shell 3 on the two arm portions 31, and a corresponding pair of metal shells 6 are respectively provided on both sides of the mating connector. After the clamping arm 60 is used for connecting with the butt connector, the two clamping arms 60 of the metal cover 6 can span over the two arms 31 of the metal shell 3 respectively to be clamped into the buckle edge 310 to prevent separation , as shown in Figure 6.

Please refer to FIG. 1 and FIG. 2 again. In the present invention, a limit seat 32 is respectively provided at the outer rear ends of the two arms 31 of the metal shell 3 , and the limit seat 32 has at least one position on the buckle edge 310 . The guide structure 320 that is tilted at the rear end may further have a rear pin 321 integrally connected downward by the guide structure 320 ; and in the embodiment of the present invention, the guide structure 320 The system has an upwardly raised root portion 320a, and a leading edge 320b extending backward from the root portion 320a. Furthermore, the rear ends of the two arm portions 31 of the metal shell 3 can be further provided with an extension portion 311 respectively. The rear end of the two side portions 11 of the insulating base 1 is abutted against the rear ends of the two side portions 11 of the insulating base 1 to cooperate with the locking ribs 300 that are clamped to the front end of the base 10 of the insulating base 1 , so that the metal shell 3 can be more firmly combined with the insulating base 1 superior.

Furthermore, a front pin 312 extending downward can also be provided on the outer sides of the front ends of the two arms 31 of the metal shell 3 respectively, and the buckle edge 310 is formed from the rear edge of the front pin 312 to the front edge of the guiding structure 320 Between the rear pins 321 and the front pins 312 of the limiting seat 32, the present invention can also provide the stability and stability of the wire-to-board connector when it is disposed on, for example, a circuit board.

Therefore, the wire-to-board connector structure of the present invention can be obtained by the above-mentioned structure.

Accordingly, as shown in FIG. 4 , if the wire end connector is slightly deviated and the clamping arm 60 cannot be aligned with the buckle edge 310 during insertion, it can be guided by the lifting of the above-mentioned limiting seat 32 The structure 320 guides the rear edge of the clamping arm 60 into the buckle edge 310 , as shown in FIG. 5 .

Therefore, according to the structure of the wire-to-board connector of the present invention, in addition to the above-mentioned insertion function of oblique guiding during insertion, the limiting seat 32 itself can improve its structure through the arrangement of the rear pins 321 . Strength; even the strength can be increased through the connection area between the rear leg 321 and the arm portion 31 or the extension portion 311 . At the same time, the guiding structure 320 can also increase the structural strength of the guiding edge 320b through the arrangement of the root portion 320a; and the guiding structure 320 is not only formed by bending the rear legs 321, but also can be formed by the arm portion 31 Or the extension portion 311 is formed by bending outward.
