At the same time, the style of such structure can be conveniently used in various memory connectors.

Description

Memory card connector with detection function

[Technical Field] The utility model belongs to a memory card connector in the field of electronic technology, which is suitable for use in occasions where a digital camera, a digital video camera, a mobile phone, etc. need to be connected and fixed by a card, especially in the application. The digital device detects whether the memory card is placed in the device.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION Nowadays, the rapid development of computer technology, and desktop computers or notebook computers have been ubiquitous in all corners of society, and the development of computers tends to move toward a powerful computing function, a fast speed and a small volume. The internal connectors of the computer have also been greatly reduced to accommodate the development of computers, such as digital cameras, digital video cameras, mobile phones and other digital products. Various memory cards are used in the above products, and when using these memory cards, various memory card connectors are necessarily used. For example, if a message such as a memory card has been inserted in a digital device during use, and there is no such function in an existing digital device, it is often the case that the memory device is forgotten to be inserted, resulting in the inability of the digital device to be used. Therefore, in actual use, there is a great need for a memory card connection device that can provide a variety of information at any time and has a detection function.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION In view of the above problems, it is an object of the present invention to provide a novel memory card connector capable of detecting the presence or other information of a memory card.

In order to achieve the above object, the technical solution adopted by the utility model includes the following contents: A memory card connector with a detecting function, comprising a base, a shielding shell, a plurality of conductive terminals, a plurality of connecting terminals, and advance and retreat The card mechanism, the plurality of conductive terminals are arranged on the circuit board according to a certain regularity, and are connected with the connection terminals. The improvement of the utility model is that at least one detection is provided on the other side of the circuit board where the conductive terminals are located. Terminal. .

The detecting terminal is composed of a metal piece having a certain elasticity, and the top end of the detecting terminal is also obliquely below. The connection has a contact, and the other end of the detection terminal is connected to the IC of the digital device.

The detecting terminal is correspondingly connected to a connecting terminal through a circuit of the circuit board, and is connected to the IC of the digital device through the connecting terminal.

The plurality of detecting terminals are respectively, and respectively detecting different times in the use process of the digital device and the memory card

5 information.

By adopting the above technical solution, the utility model obtains the following positive technical effects and advantages: Firstly, by setting the manner of detecting the terminal, the utility model obtains the function capable of detecting whether or not the memory card exists therein; The structure of the connection terminal electrically connected to the detection terminal enables the above-mentioned detection terminal to be conveniently and reliably connected to the digital device, and at the same time, the memory card connector is easily disassembled; ':.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings:

As shown in FIG. 1 and FIG. 2, the utility model is used in a memory card connector, and a memory card connector with a detection function of the belt 20 includes a base 2, a shielding shell 1, and a plurality of The conductive terminal 3, the plurality of connection terminals, and the advance/backward card mechanism 5, the plurality of conductive terminals 3 are arranged side by side on the circuit board 6, and are connected in a one-to-one correspondence with the connection terminals through the circuit, at the conductive terminal 3 The other side of the circuit board 6 on which is located is provided with a detection terminal 7. The mounting position of the detecting terminal 7 is generally below the third conductive terminal on the left side: , the detecting terminal 7 is composed of a metal piece having a certain elasticity, and the top end of the detecting terminal 7 is also connected obliquely downward 25 A contact 4, which should generally be parallel to the detection terminal 7, is located below the side of the detection terminal 7, and is connected to the IC of the digital device at the other end of the detection terminal 7. This connection method can be connected by means of dry connection. In addition, the terminal 7 is also connected, that is, the circuit through the circuit board 6 is connected to a connection terminal, and the connection terminal is used as a plug, and the combination connection socket on the digital device is connected with the IC on the digital device. , this connection can make assembly and disassembly more

30 convenient.

The above-mentioned detection terminal 7 can also be multiple, respectively detecting the use of the digital device and the memory card. Different information.

In short, the configuration of the detecting terminal 7 in the present invention in the memory card connector is not limited to the use in the above embodiment, and the method of setting the detecting terminal 7 and providing information through the digital device can be used. In various existing memory card connectors, and the setting process is simple and does not require creative labor, the structure used in the present invention should be protected in all memory card connectors.
