本方案中,连接部内缩于连接通道内,能够避免与插入连接腔内的线缆插头发生抵接干涉,保证线缆插头插入连接腔后能够直接与抵接部抵接,由抵接部承受全部插入力,提高了对连接器的保护作用,进一步保证了连接器的连接稳定性,提高了电子设备与线缆插头的连接可靠性。In this solution, the connecting part is retracted into the connecting channel, which can avoid abutment interference with the cable plug inserted into the connecting cavity, ensure that the cable plug can directly abut against the abutment part after being inserted into the connecting cavity, and the abutment part bears the entire insertion force, thereby improving the protection of the connector, further ensuring the connection stability of the connector, and improving the connection reliability between the electronic device and the cable plug.

在一种可能的设计中,所述连接通道包括通道内壁,所述通道内壁靠近所述安装腔的一端设置有第一倒角部。In a possible design, the connecting channel includes a channel inner wall, and a first chamfered portion is provided at one end of the channel inner wall close to the mounting cavity.
本方案中,连接器在安装时,需在安装腔内预留空间,使连接器能够在安装腔内倾斜插入连接通道,而第一倒角部的设置能够增加连接通道位于安装腔一侧的开口,且具有导向作用,从而使连接器更易沿第一倒角部插入连接通道内,降低了连接器的安装难度,且能够降低连接器在安装腔内沿轴向所需的安装空间,从而利于电子设备的小型化设计。In this solution, when installing the connector, space needs to be reserved in the installation cavity so that the connector can be inserted into the connecting channel at an angle in the installation cavity. The provision of the first chamfered portion can increase the opening of the connecting channel on one side of the installation cavity and has a guiding effect, thereby making it easier for the connector to be inserted into the connecting channel along the first chamfered portion, reducing the difficulty of installing the connector and reducing the installation space required for the connector in the axial direction in the installation cavity, thereby facilitating the miniaturization design of the electronic device.

Before the connector is assembled with the circuit board and the housing, the seal needs to be connected to the connection part, so that the electronic device can be waterproofed during the assembly process of the connector and the housing, which reduces the difficulty of installing the seal and improves the assembly efficiency of the whole machine. In addition, during the installation process, the seal and the tongue core will not interfere with each other, thereby improving the qualified yield rate of the electronic device. At the same time, the groove can increase the contact area between the seal and the connection part, thereby improving the connection strength between the seal and the connection part, and can limit the axial displacement of the seal on the connector, avoiding the seal from being squeezed and moved during the assembly process of the connector and the housing, thereby affecting the functions of other components on the connector, and further improving the structural stability and waterproof yield rate of the electronic device.
在一种可能的设计中,所述密封件通过注塑形成于所述凹槽内。 In a possible design, the sealing element is formed in the groove by injection molding.

此处的附图被并入说明书中并构成本说明书的一部分,示出了符合本申请的实施例,并与说明书一起用于解释本申请的原理。The accompanying drawings, which are incorporated in and constitute a part of this specification, illustrate embodiments consistent with the present application and, together with the description, serve to explain the principles of the present application.
具体实施方式Detailed ways
为了更好的理解本申请的技术方案,下面结合附图对本申请实施例进行详细描述。In order to better understand the technical solution of the present application, the embodiments of the present application are described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
在一种具体实施例中,下面通过具体的实施例并结合附图对本申请做进一步的详细描述。In a specific embodiment, the present application is further described in detail below through specific embodiments and in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.
图1示出了现有技术中电子设备10′中的部分结构,该部分结构为机壳1′、电路板2′和连接器3′配合形成的I/O接口部分。其中,为了便于整机装配,连接器3′一般由本体31′、外壳32′和止位件33′组成,连接器腔体34′和插接槽13′共同构成连接腔。在线缆插头20插入连接腔内与本体31′连接的过程中,线缆插头20会与连接器3′的止位件33′抵接,插入力会直接通过止位件33′传递到本体31′与电路板2′的焊接点6′处,从而导致焊接点6′处受损开裂,造成连接器3′的信号断路,使电子设备无法进行充电或数据传输,可靠性较低。FIG1 shows a partial structure of an electronic device 10′ in the prior art, which is an I/O interface part formed by the housing 1′, the circuit board 2′ and the connector 3′. In order to facilitate the assembly of the whole machine, the connector 3′ is generally composed of a body 31′, a shell 32′ and a stopper 33′, and the connector cavity 34′ and the plug slot 13′ together constitute a connection cavity. When the cable plug 20 is inserted into the connection cavity and connected to the body 31′, the cable plug 20 will abut against the stopper 33′ of the connector 3′, and the insertion force will be directly transmitted to the welding point 6′ between the body 31′ and the circuit board 2′ through the stopper 33′, thereby causing damage and cracking at the welding point 6′, causing the signal of the connector 3′ to be disconnected, making it impossible for the electronic device to charge or transmit data, and the reliability is low.
现有技术中,大多是通过在安装腔11′内设置一些能够对连接器3′或电路板2′进行限位的限位部件,使线缆插头20插入过程中产生的插入力能够被限位部件分担吸收,借此降低焊接点6′处的受力,从而保证I/O接口的在日常使用中或跌落过程中的强度。但是,这种设计方案结构较为复杂,一方面,为了保证限位部件对连接器3′或电路板2′的限位作用,对限位部件及其周边部件的加工精度要求极高,会增加额外成本,另一方面,限位部件会占用安装腔11′内的空间,不利于整机轻薄化和小型化。例如,图1中所示的限位部7′,限位部7′能够对连接器3′进行沿轴向方向的限位,并吸收一部分插入力,但是需要在机壳1′与外壳32′之间预留空间,以满足限位部7′的布置和受力需求。In the prior art, most of the methods are to set some limiting components that can limit the connector 3' or the circuit board 2' in the installation cavity 11', so that the insertion force generated during the insertion of the cable plug 20 can be shared and absorbed by the limiting components, thereby reducing the force at the welding point 6', thereby ensuring the strength of the I/O interface in daily use or during the falling process. However, this design scheme has a relatively complex structure. On the one hand, in order to ensure the limiting effect of the limiting component on the connector 3' or the circuit board 2', the processing accuracy of the limiting component and its surrounding components is extremely high, which will increase additional costs. On the other hand, the limiting component will occupy the space in the installation cavity 11', which is not conducive to the thinning and miniaturization of the whole machine. For example, the limiting part 7' shown in Figure 1 can limit the connector 3' in the axial direction and absorb part of the insertion force, but it is necessary to reserve space between the casing 1' and the outer shell 32' to meet the arrangement and force requirements of the limiting part 7'.
另外,为满足用户对电子设备一体化的需求,一般会在连接器腔体34′内壁镀设颜色,以使连接器腔体34′内壁与插接槽13′的颜色一致,提升连接腔内的精致度,但是增加了额外成本,且插拔线缆插头20易使连接器腔体34′内壁磨损掉色,降低了用户使用体验。In addition, in order to meet the user's demand for the integration of electronic devices, the inner wall of the connector cavity 34' is generally plated with color to make the inner wall of the connector cavity 34' consistent with the color of the plug-in slot 13', thereby improving the refinement of the connection cavity. However, this adds extra costs, and plugging and unplugging the cable plug 20 can easily cause the inner wall of the connector cavity 34' to wear and discolor, reducing the user experience.
为了解决上述技术问题,本申请提供了一种电子设备,电子设备包括例如手机、平板电脑、个人数字助理(personal digital assistant,PDA)、笔记本电脑、车载电脑、AR&VR设备等终端电子设备,在此不做限制。下面通过具体的实施例并结合附图对本申请做进一步的详细描述。In order to solve the above technical problems, the present application provides an electronic device, which includes terminal electronic devices such as mobile phones, tablet computers, personal digital assistants (PDAs), laptop computers, car computers, AR & VR devices, etc., which are not limited here. The present application is further described in detail below through specific embodiments and in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.
本申请实施例提供了一种电子设备10,如图2~5所示,包括壳体16和连接器3,壳体16设有依次连通的安装腔11、连接通道12和连接腔13,在壳体16上,连接通道12包括通道内壁121,连接腔13包括连接内壁131,连接通道12与连接腔13的底部连通,且第一轮廓与第二轮廓至少有部分不重合,其中,第一轮廓为通道内壁121在底部的轮廓,第二轮廓为连接内壁131在底部的轮廓,连接器3为嵌件成型,连接器3的至少部分能够通过连接通道12伸入连接腔13内,其中,底部中位于第一轮廓与第二轮廓之间的部分为抵接面141,抵接面141用于与伸入到连接腔13内的线缆插头20接触。An embodiment of the present application provides an electronic device 10, as shown in Figures 2 to 5, including a shell 16 and a connector 3, the shell 16 is provided with an installation cavity 11, a connecting channel 12 and a connecting cavity 13 which are connected in sequence, on the shell 16, the connecting channel 12 includes a channel inner wall 121, the connecting cavity 13 includes a connecting inner wall 131, the connecting channel 12 is connected to the bottom of the connecting cavity 13, and the first contour and the second contour at least partially do not overlap, wherein the first contour is the contour of the channel inner wall 121 at the bottom, and the second contour is the contour of the connecting inner wall 131 at the bottom, the connector 3 is insert-molded, and at least a portion of the connector 3 can extend into the connecting cavity 13 through the connecting channel 12, wherein the portion of the bottom located between the first contour and the second contour is an abutment surface 141, and the abutment surface 141 is used to contact the cable plug 20 extending into the connecting cavity 13.
本实施例中,如图2~图5所示,线缆插头20可伸入连接腔13内与连接器3连接,以使用户可以对电子设备10进行充电或数据传输。在线缆插头20沿连接内壁131插入连接腔13的过程中,沿线缆插头20的插入方向,抵接面141能够对线缆插头20进行限位,即当线缆插头20与连接器3连接到位时,线缆插头20能够与抵接面141接触,防止线缆插头20继续伸入,且线缆插头20在插入过程中产生的插入力能够完全由抵接面141承担,从而能够避免连接器3受外力导致与安装腔11中其他部件连接失效,影响连接器3的使用功能,保证了电子设备10在日常使用或跌落过程中,连接器3的连接稳定性,提高了电子设备10 与线缆插头20的连接可靠性,提高了电子设备10的使用寿命,同时,由于无需在安装腔11内设置额外的能够对连接器3进行限位的限位部件,从而降低了电子设备10的结构复杂程度和生产制造难度,节约了成本,且节约了安装腔11内的空间,有利于电子设备10轻薄化和小型化的设计。另外,连接腔13设置于壳体16中,连接腔13的连接内壁131的材料一致,颜色统一,且在线缆插头20的插接过程中连接内壁131不会因磨损而脱色,提高了连接腔13内部的精致度,提升了整机设计的一体性,而且无需对连接内壁131再进行额外的镀色处理,进一步节约了成本。In this embodiment, as shown in FIGS. 2 to 5 , the cable plug 20 can be inserted into the connection cavity 13 and connected to the connector 3, so that the user can charge or transfer data to the electronic device 10. In the process of inserting the cable plug 20 into the connection cavity 13 along the connection inner wall 131, the abutment surface 141 can limit the cable plug 20 along the insertion direction of the cable plug 20, that is, when the cable plug 20 is connected to the connector 3 in place, the cable plug 20 can contact the abutment surface 141 to prevent the cable plug 20 from continuing to extend, and the insertion force generated by the cable plug 20 during the insertion process can be completely borne by the abutment surface 141, thereby preventing the connector 3 from being subjected to external forces and causing the connection with other components in the installation cavity 11 to fail, affecting the use function of the connector 3, ensuring the connection stability of the electronic device 10 during daily use or falling, and improving the electronic device 10. The reliability of the connection with the cable plug 20 improves the service life of the electronic device 10. At the same time, since there is no need to set an additional limiting component in the installation cavity 11 to limit the connector 3, the structural complexity and manufacturing difficulty of the electronic device 10 are reduced, the cost is saved, and the space in the installation cavity 11 is saved, which is conducive to the design of the electronic device 10 to be thinner and smaller. In addition, the connection cavity 13 is arranged in the shell 16, and the connecting inner wall 131 of the connection cavity 13 is made of the same material and color, and the connecting inner wall 131 will not be discolored due to wear during the plugging process of the cable plug 20, which improves the refinement of the interior of the connection cavity 13 and the integrity of the overall design. In addition, there is no need to perform additional color plating on the connecting inner wall 131, which further saves costs.
其中,嵌件成型也叫嵌件注塑成型,嵌件成型是指将准备好的金属端子等异材质部件作为嵌件预先装入模具中后,在模具中再注入塑胶或树脂等材料,使熔融的材料包裹嵌件后,与嵌件接合固化成型,制成一体化产品的工艺。其由于注塑材料的易成型性、弯曲性与金属的刚性、强度及耐热性的相互组合补充可结实地制成复杂精巧的金属塑料一体化产品。特别是利用了注塑材料的绝缘性和金属的导电性的组合,制成的成型品能满足电子产品的基本机能,且多个嵌件的事前成型组合,使得产品单元组合的后工程更合理化,还能够使得后工序的自动化组合更容易。因为是熔融的材料与金属嵌件的接合,与压入成型法相比较,金属嵌件间隙可以设计得更狭窄,复合产品成型的可靠性更高。其中,嵌件品不尽限于金属,也有布、纸、电线、塑料、玻璃、木材、线圏类、电子零件等多种。Among them, insert molding is also called insert injection molding. Insert molding refers to the process of pre-loading prepared metal terminals and other heterogeneous material parts into the mold as inserts, and then injecting plastic or resin and other materials into the mold, so that the molten material wraps the insert, and then solidifies and forms an integrated product. Due to the combination of the easy formability and bendability of the injection molding material and the rigidity, strength and heat resistance of the metal, complex and delicate metal-plastic integrated products can be firmly made. In particular, the combination of the insulation of the injection molding material and the conductivity of the metal is utilized, and the molded products can meet the basic functions of electronic products, and the pre-molding combination of multiple inserts makes the post-processing of the product unit combination more rational, and can also make the automation combination of the post-process easier. Because it is the bonding of molten material and metal inserts, compared with the press-in molding method, the gap between the metal inserts can be designed to be narrower, and the reliability of the composite product molding is higher. Among them, the insert products are not limited to metals, but also cloth, paper, wire, plastic, glass, wood, coils, electronic parts and many other types.

另外,线缆插头20可以是耳机、充电器或数据传输装置的线缆插头,在此不做限制。In addition, the cable plug 20 may be a cable plug of an earphone, a charger, or a data transmission device, which is not limited here.
其中,机壳1为包裹于电子设备的各零部件外部的保护部件,机壳1包括壳体16,还可以包括抵接部14,抵接部14形成于壳体16的内壁上,抵接部14可与壳体16一体成型,或者,抵接部14可注塑形成于壳体16。安装腔11为加工形成于机壳1内部的空腔,用于为电子设备的各个部件提供安装空间。连接腔13加工形成于机壳1的一端,为能够使电子设备的内部安装腔11能够与外部连通的接口,连接腔13的连接内壁131与线缆插头20配合,用于限制线缆插头20的径向自由度,以提高线缆插头20的连接稳定性,且能够保护连接器3的舌芯32不受外力损坏。连接通道12为加工形成于机壳1上的用于连通安装腔11和连接腔13的通道,通道内壁121并能够为连接器3提供部分固定支撑,提高连接器3的固定效果。Among them, the housing 1 is a protective component wrapped around the outside of each component of the electronic device. The housing 1 includes a shell 16 and may also include an abutment portion 14. The abutment portion 14 is formed on the inner wall of the shell 16. The abutment portion 14 can be integrally formed with the shell 16, or the abutment portion 14 can be injection molded on the shell 16. The installation cavity 11 is a cavity formed inside the housing 1, which is used to provide installation space for various components of the electronic device. The connecting cavity 13 is formed at one end of the housing 1, which is an interface that enables the internal installation cavity 11 of the electronic device to communicate with the outside. The connecting inner wall 131 of the connecting cavity 13 cooperates with the cable plug 20 to limit the radial freedom of the cable plug 20, so as to improve the connection stability of the cable plug 20, and can protect the tongue core 32 of the connector 3 from damage by external forces. The connecting channel 12 is a channel formed on the housing 1 for connecting the installation cavity 11 and the connecting cavity 13. The inner wall 121 of the channel can also provide partial fixed support for the connector 3, thereby improving the fixing effect of the connector 3.
也就是说,抵接部14位于安装腔11和连接腔13之间,抵接部14大致平行于连接内壁131的环形面即为通道内壁121,抵接部14朝向连接腔13一侧的大致垂直于连接内壁131的环形面即为抵接面141。That is to say, the abutment portion 14 is located between the installation cavity 11 and the connecting cavity 13, the annular surface of the abutment portion 14 roughly parallel to the connecting inner wall 131 is the channel inner wall 121, and the annular surface of the abutment portion 14 roughly perpendicular to the connecting inner wall 131 on the side facing the connecting cavity 13 is the abutment surface 141.
如图4~6所示,抵接面141平整、光滑,且抵接面141大致垂直于链接内壁131,当线缆插头20与连接器3连接到位时,抵接面141与线缆插头20抵接,能够有效阻止线缆插头20继续伸入,并承担线缆插头20的插入力,防止连接器3受线缆插头20的插入力影响。As shown in Figures 4 to 6, the abutment surface 141 is flat and smooth, and the abutment surface 141 is roughly perpendicular to the link inner wall 131. When the cable plug 20 is connected to the connector 3, the abutment surface 141 abuts against the cable plug 20, which can effectively prevent the cable plug 20 from further extending and bear the insertion force of the cable plug 20, thereby preventing the connector 3 from being affected by the insertion force of the cable plug 20.

在一种具体实施例中,如图6所示,抵接面141形成于抵接部14朝向连接腔13的一侧,抵接部14形成于通道内壁121与连接内壁131之间,抵接部14注塑形成于壳体16上。In a specific embodiment, as shown in FIG. 6 , the abutting surface 141 is formed on the side of the abutting portion 14 facing the connecting cavity 13 , the abutting portion 14 is formed between the channel inner wall 121 and the connecting inner wall 131 , and the abutting portion 14 is injection molded on the housing 16 .
本实施例中,如图6所示,抵接部14通过注塑形成于壳体16上时,抵接部14与壳体16的连接强度高,不易与壳体16脱离,使线缆插头20与抵接部14抵接时的插入力能够传递到壳体16上,提高了抵接部14的可靠性,且使抵接部14与壳体16可以采用不同材质,以满足机壳1在不同部位上硬度或材料需求 等,节约制造成本。In this embodiment, as shown in FIG. 6 , when the abutting portion 14 is formed on the shell 16 by injection molding, the connection strength between the abutting portion 14 and the shell 16 is high and it is not easy to separate from the shell 16, so that the insertion force when the cable plug 20 abuts against the abutting portion 14 can be transmitted to the shell 16, thereby improving the reliability of the abutting portion 14 and allowing the abutting portion 14 and the shell 16 to be made of different materials to meet the hardness or material requirements of different parts of the housing 1. Etc., saving manufacturing costs.
另外,如图2所示,壳体16和抵接部14共同形成包裹于电子设备外部的机壳1,以为其内部的部件提供保护。In addition, as shown in FIG. 2 , the housing 16 and the abutting portion 14 together form a casing 1 that wraps around the outside of the electronic device to provide protection for the components inside the electronic device.
具体地,壳体16的材质可以为铝合金,抵接部14的材质可以为塑胶。Specifically, the shell 16 may be made of aluminum alloy, and the abutting portion 14 may be made of plastic.
本实施例中,壳体16为铝合金时,具有较高的硬度,以及较轻的重量,使壳体1更加耐磨、抗摔的同时,降低了整机的重量,利于整机轻薄化设计,另外,抵接部14的材质为塑胶,节约了机壳1的制造成本,且不易产生形变,进一步提高了抵接部14的可靠性。In this embodiment, when the shell 16 is made of aluminum alloy, it has higher hardness and lighter weight, which makes the shell 1 more wear-resistant and drop-resistant, while reducing the weight of the whole machine, which is conducive to the lightweight design of the whole machine. In addition, the material of the abutment part 14 is plastic, which saves the manufacturing cost of the casing 1 and is not easy to deform, further improving the reliability of the abutment part 14.
当然,壳体16也可以为其他金属材料等,抵接部14也可为其他塑料材料等,在此不做限制。Of course, the housing 16 may also be made of other metal materials, and the abutting portion 14 may also be made of other plastic materials, which are not limited here.
在另一种具体实施例中,如图6所示,壳体16和抵接部14一体成型。In another specific embodiment, as shown in FIG. 6 , the housing 16 and the abutting portion 14 are integrally formed.
本实施例中,如图6所示,壳体16和抵接部14一体成型,结构简单,易于加工制造,且提高了抵接部14与壳体16之间的连接强度,以进一步提高了抵接部14对线缆插头20的限位可靠性,避免抵接部14在线缆插头20的了解过程中产生朝向安装腔11方向的位移,从而避免连接器3受到线缆插头20的轴向插入力,进一步提高了电子设备10与线缆插头20的连接可靠性,提高了电子设备10的使用寿命。In this embodiment, as shown in FIG. 6 , the shell 16 and the abutting portion 14 are integrally formed, with a simple structure, and are easy to manufacture. The connection strength between the abutting portion 14 and the shell 16 is improved, so as to further improve the reliability of the abutting portion 14 limiting the cable plug 20, and avoid the abutting portion 14 from being displaced toward the mounting cavity 11 during the insertion of the cable plug 20, thereby avoiding the connector 3 from being subjected to the axial insertion force of the cable plug 20, further improving the connection reliability between the electronic device 10 and the cable plug 20, and improving the service life of the electronic device 10.
其中,壳体16和抵接部14一体成型时,壳体16与抵接部14的材质同为为金属或塑料等,在此不做限制。When the shell 16 and the abutting portion 14 are integrally formed, the shell 16 and the abutting portion 14 are made of the same material, such as metal or plastic, which is not limited here.
在一种具体实施例中,如图6所示,抵接部14为环状,在壳体16位于连接通道12的位置上沿径向设置。In a specific embodiment, as shown in FIG. 6 , the abutment portion 14 is annular and is radially disposed at a position where the housing 16 is located in the connecting channel 12 .
本实施例中,如图6所示,当抵接部14为环状时,能够增加抵接部14与线缆插头20的抵接的抵接面141的面积,从而使抵接部14能够承受更大的插入力,且抵接部14的受力更加均匀,进一步避免抵接部14损坏,且抵接部14为环状时,连接通道12内的通道内壁121平整无凸起,能够减小通道内壁121与连接器3之间的间隙,从而便于进行防水设置。In this embodiment, as shown in Figure 6, when the abutment portion 14 is annular, the area of the abutment surface 141 of the abutment portion 14 and the cable plug 20 can be increased, so that the abutment portion 14 can withstand a larger insertion force, and the force on the abutment portion 14 is more uniform, further avoiding damage to the abutment portion 14. When the abutment portion 14 is annular, the channel inner wall 121 in the connecting channel 12 is flat and has no protrusions, which can reduce the gap between the channel inner wall 121 and the connector 3, thereby facilitating waterproof settings.
在另一种具体实施例中,抵接部14为壳体16位于连接通道12的位置上间隔地分布的凸起。In another specific embodiment, the abutting portions 14 are protrusions distributed at intervals at the position of the housing 16 located at the connecting channel 12 .
本实施例中,当抵接部14为间隔分布的凸起时,能够减小制造材料的使用,降低机壳1的重量,从而利于电子设备10整机更加轻量化的设计。In this embodiment, when the abutting portions 14 are protrusions distributed at intervals, the use of manufacturing materials can be reduced, and the weight of the housing 1 can be reduced, thereby facilitating a more lightweight design of the entire electronic device 10 .
当然,抵接部14也可以是上述环状和凸起的结合,或其他的结构,只要能够对线缆插头20进行限位即可,在此不作限制。Of course, the abutting portion 14 may also be a combination of the above-mentioned ring shape and protrusion, or other structures, as long as it can limit the cable plug 20, and there is no limitation here.
在一种具体实施例中,如图4和图6所示,连接通道12包括通道内壁121,通道内壁121靠近安装腔11的一端设置有第一倒角部122。In a specific embodiment, as shown in FIG. 4 and FIG. 6 , the connecting channel 12 includes a channel inner wall 121 , and a first chamfered portion 122 is provided at one end of the channel inner wall 121 close to the mounting cavity 11 .
本实施例中,如图4和图6所示,连接器3在安装时,需在安装腔11内预留空间,使连接器3能够在安装腔11内倾斜插入连接通道12,而第一倒角部122的设置能够增加连接通道12位于安装腔11一侧的开口,且具有导向作用,从而使连接器3更易沿第一倒角部122插入连接通道12内,降低了连接器3的安装难度,且能够降低连接器3在安装腔11内沿轴向所需的安装空间,从而利于电子设备10的小型化设计。In this embodiment, as shown in Figures 4 and 6, when the connector 3 is installed, space needs to be reserved in the installation cavity 11 so that the connector 3 can be obliquely inserted into the connecting channel 12 in the installation cavity 11, and the setting of the first chamfered portion 122 can increase the opening of the connecting channel 12 on one side of the installation cavity 11 and has a guiding effect, so that the connector 3 is easier to insert into the connecting channel 12 along the first chamfered portion 122, thereby reducing the installation difficulty of the connector 3 and reducing the installation space required for the connector 3 in the axial direction in the installation cavity 11, thereby facilitating the miniaturization design of the electronic device 10.
在一种具体实施例中,如图5和图6所示,连接腔13包括连接内壁131,连接内壁131远离连接通道12的一端设有第二倒角部132。In a specific embodiment, as shown in FIG. 5 and FIG. 6 , the connecting cavity 13 includes a connecting inner wall 131 , and a second chamfered portion 132 is provided at one end of the connecting inner wall 131 away from the connecting channel 12 .
本实施例中,如图5和图6所示,第二倒角部132能够连接腔13远离连接通道12一侧的开口,且具有导向作用,从而能够降低线缆插头20的插入难度,提高线缆插头20与电子设备10的连接效率,提高用户的使用体验。In this embodiment, as shown in Figures 5 and 6, the second chamfered portion 132 can connect the opening of the cavity 13 away from the connecting channel 12 and has a guiding function, thereby reducing the difficulty of inserting the cable plug 20, improving the connection efficiency between the cable plug 20 and the electronic device 10, and improving the user experience.
当然,第一倒角部122和第二倒角部132也可为平滑过渡的倒圆,在此不做限制。Of course, the first chamfered portion 122 and the second chamfered portion 132 may also be rounded with a smooth transition, which is not limited here.
在一种具体实施例中,如图7所示,连接器3包括连接部31和舌芯32,连接部31固定于连接通道12内,舌芯32与连接部31靠近连接腔13一侧固定连接,且至少部分位于连接腔13内。In a specific embodiment, as shown in Figure 7, the connector 3 includes a connecting portion 31 and a tongue core 32, the connecting portion 31 is fixed in the connecting channel 12, the tongue core 32 is fixedly connected to the connecting portion 31 near the connecting cavity 13, and is at least partially located in the connecting cavity 13.
本实施例中,如图7所示,连接部31固定于连接通道12内,从而使舌芯32能够悬置于连接腔13中,便于与线缆插头20配合连接。且连接部31固定于连接通道12内能够提高连接器3的连接稳定性,限制连接器3在连接通道12内的位移,从而保证了舌芯32在连接腔13中的位置和伸出量均保持不变,避免线缆插头20与舌芯32连接失效,从而保证了线缆插头20插入连接腔13内能够与舌芯32配合连接的有效性,提高了电子设备10与线缆插头20的连接可靠性。In this embodiment, as shown in FIG. 7 , the connecting portion 31 is fixed in the connecting channel 12, so that the tongue core 32 can be suspended in the connecting cavity 13, so as to facilitate the connection with the cable plug 20. Moreover, the fixing of the connecting portion 31 in the connecting channel 12 can improve the connection stability of the connector 3, limit the displacement of the connector 3 in the connecting channel 12, thereby ensuring that the position and extension amount of the tongue core 32 in the connecting cavity 13 remain unchanged, avoiding the failure of the connection between the cable plug 20 and the tongue core 32, thereby ensuring the effectiveness of the cable plug 20 inserted into the connecting cavity 13 to be able to cooperate with the tongue core 32 for connection, and improving the connection reliability between the electronic device 10 and the cable plug 20.
在一种具体实施例中,如图5和图7所示,舌芯32位于连接腔13内的长度为L,4.4mm≤L≤4.5mm。 例如,长度L可以为4.44mm、4.45mm、4.46mm等,在此不作限制。In a specific embodiment, as shown in FIG. 5 and FIG. 7 , the length of the tongue core 32 in the connecting cavity 13 is L, and 4.4 mm≤L≤4.5 mm. For example, the length L can be 4.44 mm, 4.45 mm, 4.46 mm, etc., which is not limited here.
本实施例中,如图5和图7所示,当舌芯32在连接腔13内的长度L不满足4.4mm≤L≤4.5mm时,电子设备10不能够与市面通用的线缆插头20相适配,需要定制线缆插头20,会增加制造成本,且不便于用户的日常生活使用,增加额外的使用成本。其中,若舌芯32在连接腔13内的长度L<4.4mm,则舌芯32的伸出量较短,当线缆插头20与抵接部14抵接时,线缆插头20不能与舌芯32配合到位,从而影响电子设备10的充电或数据传输。若舌芯32在连接腔13内的长度L大于4.5mm时,则舌芯32的伸出量较长,从而在线缆插头20的插入过程中,舌芯32远离连接部31的一端会与线缆插头20发生抵接干涉,使线缆插头20的插入力经舌芯32传递到连接器3与电路板2的连接处,造成连接处的开裂断路,影响电子设备10的充电或数据传输。In this embodiment, as shown in FIG. 5 and FIG. 7 , when the length L of the tongue core 32 in the connection cavity 13 does not satisfy 4.4 mm ≤ L ≤ 4.5 mm, the electronic device 10 cannot be compatible with the common cable plug 20 on the market, and the cable plug 20 needs to be customized, which increases the manufacturing cost and is inconvenient for the user's daily life, increasing the additional use cost. Among them, if the length L of the tongue core 32 in the connection cavity 13 is less than 4.4 mm, the extension of the tongue core 32 is short, and when the cable plug 20 abuts against the abutment portion 14, the cable plug 20 cannot fit in place with the tongue core 32, thereby affecting the charging or data transmission of the electronic device 10. If the length L of the tongue core 32 in the connecting cavity 13 is greater than 4.5 mm, the protrusion of the tongue core 32 is longer, so that during the insertion of the cable plug 20, the end of the tongue core 32 away from the connecting portion 31 will abut and interfere with the cable plug 20, so that the insertion force of the cable plug 20 is transmitted to the connection between the connector 3 and the circuit board 2 through the tongue core 32, causing the connection to crack and open, thereby affecting the charging or data transmission of the electronic device 10.
因此,当舌芯32位于连接腔13内的长度L为4.4mm≤L≤4.5mm时,电子设备10能够与市面上通用的线缆插头20相配合,从而提高电子设备10在充电或数据传输方面的适用范围,降低成本,且便于用户将电子设备10与其他终端或装置配合连接,满足用户的日常使用需求,降低使用成本,提高用户的使用体验。Therefore, when the length L of the tongue core 32 in the connecting cavity 13 is 4.4mm≤L≤4.5mm, the electronic device 10 can be matched with the common cable plug 20 on the market, thereby improving the applicability of the electronic device 10 in charging or data transmission, reducing costs, and making it convenient for users to connect the electronic device 10 with other terminals or devices, meeting the daily use needs of users, reducing use costs, and improving the user's use experience.
其中,如图5所示,连接腔13的尺寸也可与市面通用的线缆插头20的尺寸相配合,以使连接腔13能够全方位包括线缆插头20,从而避免线缆插头20在插入过程中发生偏移,进一步保证了线缆插头20插入连接腔13内能够与舌芯32配合连接的有效性,提高了电子设备10与线缆插头20的连接可靠性。As shown in FIG. 5 , the size of the connecting cavity 13 may also match the size of a commercially available cable plug 20, so that the connecting cavity 13 can fully include the cable plug 20, thereby preventing the cable plug 20 from being offset during the insertion process, further ensuring the effectiveness of the cable plug 20 being inserted into the connecting cavity 13 and being able to cooperate with the tongue core 32 for connection, and improving the connection reliability between the electronic device 10 and the cable plug 20.
在一种具体实施例中,如图8所示,连接部31包括朝向连接腔13一侧的端面311,端面311位于连接通道12内。In a specific embodiment, as shown in FIG. 8 , the connecting portion 31 includes an end surface 311 facing a side of the connecting cavity 13 , and the end surface 311 is located in the connecting channel 12 .
本实施例中,如图5和图8所示,连接部31内缩于连接通道12内,能够避免与插入连接腔13内的线缆插头20发生抵接干涉,保证线缆插头20插入连接腔13后能够直接与抵接部14抵接,由抵接部14承受全部插入力,提高了对连接器3的保护作用,进一步保证了连接器3的连接稳定性,提高了电子设备10与线缆插头20的连接可靠性。In this embodiment, as shown in Figures 5 and 8, the connecting portion 31 is retracted into the connecting channel 12, which can avoid abutment interference with the cable plug 20 inserted into the connecting cavity 13, ensuring that the cable plug 20 can directly abut against the abutment portion 14 after being inserted into the connecting cavity 13. The abutment portion 14 bears the entire insertion force, thereby improving the protection of the connector 3, further ensuring the connection stability of the connector 3, and improving the connection reliability between the electronic device 10 and the cable plug 20.
在另一种具体实施例中,连接部31也可以无端面311,如图8所示,则在连接部31与抵接部14之间形成避让空间7,避让空间7位于舌芯32靠近连接部31一端。In another specific embodiment, the connecting portion 31 may also have no end surface 311 , as shown in FIG. 8 , and an escape space 7 is formed between the connecting portion 31 and the abutting portion 14 , and the escape space 7 is located at one end of the tongue core 32 close to the connecting portion 31 .
本实施例中,如图8所示,避让空间7的设置能够保证线缆插头20与舌芯32有效连接的同时,避免线缆插头20与所述连接部31接触,从而避免连接器3受线缆插头20的插入力的影响与电路板2连接失效,提高了连接器3与电路板2之间的连接稳定性。In this embodiment, as shown in Figure 8, the setting of the avoidance space 7 can ensure that the cable plug 20 is effectively connected to the tongue core 32 while avoiding contact between the cable plug 20 and the connecting portion 31, thereby preventing the connector 3 from being affected by the insertion force of the cable plug 20 and causing the connection with the circuit board 2 to fail, thereby improving the connection stability between the connector 3 and the circuit board 2.
在一种具体实施例中,如图8所示,端面311与抵接部14之间的距离或避让空间7的高度为d,0.05mm≤d≤0.15mm。例如,d可以为0.08mm、0.1mm、0.12mm等,在此不做限制。In a specific embodiment, as shown in Fig. 8, the distance between the end surface 311 and the abutting portion 14 or the height of the avoidance space 7 is d, 0.05mm≤d≤0.15mm. For example, d can be 0.08mm, 0.1mm, 0.12mm, etc., which is not limited here.
本实施例中,如图8所示,若端面311与抵接部14之间的距离或避让空间的高度d<0.05mm,则端面311与抵接部14之间的距离或避让空间7的高度d太小,为保证抵接部14的限位效果,对抵接部14的加工精度要求较高,会增加额外的加工成本。若端面311与抵接部14之间的距离或避让空间7的高度d>0.05mm,则端面311与抵接部14之间的距离或避让空间的高度d太大,会增加连接通道12的长度,从而会增加壳体16的长度,增加了机壳1的制造材料,提升了制造成本,且不利于电子设备10的小型化设计。In this embodiment, as shown in FIG8 , if the distance between the end face 311 and the abutment portion 14 or the height d of the avoidance space is less than 0.05 mm, the distance between the end face 311 and the abutment portion 14 or the height d of the avoidance space 7 is too small. In order to ensure the limiting effect of the abutment portion 14, the processing accuracy of the abutment portion 14 is required to be high, which will increase the additional processing cost. If the distance between the end face 311 and the abutment portion 14 or the height d of the avoidance space 7 is greater than 0.05 mm, the distance between the end face 311 and the abutment portion 14 or the height d of the avoidance space is too large, which will increase the length of the connecting channel 12, thereby increasing the length of the housing 16, increasing the manufacturing materials of the housing 1, increasing the manufacturing cost, and being unfavorable to the miniaturization design of the electronic device 10.
因此,当端面311与抵接部14之间的距离或避让空间7的高度d满足0.05mm≤d≤0.15mm时,能够保证抵接部14对线缆插头20的限位效果的同时,对抵接部14的加工精度要求不高,且能够使电子设备10的结构更加紧凑,节约成本,有利于电子设备10的小型化设计,满足市场的需求。Therefore, when the distance between the end face 311 and the abutment portion 14 or the height d of the avoidance space 7 satisfies 0.05mm≤d≤0.15mm, the limiting effect of the abutment portion 14 on the cable plug 20 can be ensured while the processing accuracy requirements of the abutment portion 14 are not high, and the structure of the electronic device 10 can be made more compact, saving costs, which is conducive to the miniaturized design of the electronic device 10 and meets market demand.
为了提高电子设备的品质,现有电子设备一般都防水性能,以满足用户日常使用所需。如图1所示,现有技术中,由于连接器3′的本体31′穿设于外壳32′中,并且连接器3′通过外壳32′与机壳1′抵接,从而使连接器腔体34′和插接槽13′共同构成的连接腔内,具有连接器3′与本体31′之间的配合间隙,以及外壳32′与机壳1′之间的配合间隙,此两处间隙均与安装腔11′连通,因此,一般需要在此两处做两道防水以满足电子设备10′的防水需求。其中,现有技术一般在外壳32′与机壳1′之间设置第一密封件4′,在本体31′与外壳32′之间预留空间,填充第二密封件5′,但是,第一密封件4′的设置在连接腔外,会增加连接器3′的径向尺寸,不利于电子设备10′的轻薄化设计,第二密封件5′一般为填充的胶水,由于第二密封件5′、外壳32′和本体31′的热膨胀系数不同,在连接器3′与电路板2′焊接时,存在连接器3′温度升高后第二密封件5′开裂导致防水失效的问题,防水良率低,且沿用性差,常常因为外壳32′材质、形状变化而 重新选择胶水型号,需花费大量时间与成本验证工艺参数。In order to improve the quality of electronic devices, existing electronic devices generally have waterproof performance to meet the needs of daily use of users. As shown in Figure 1, in the prior art, since the body 31' of the connector 3' is inserted into the shell 32', and the connector 3' is abutted against the housing 1' through the shell 32', the connection cavity formed by the connector cavity 34' and the plug slot 13' has a matching gap between the connector 3' and the body 31', and a matching gap between the shell 32' and the housing 1'. These two gaps are connected to the installation cavity 11'. Therefore, it is generally necessary to make two waterproofing at these two places to meet the waterproof requirements of the electronic device 10'. Among them, the prior art generally sets a first seal 4' between the shell 32' and the housing 1', reserves a space between the body 31' and the shell 32', and fills the second seal 5'. However, the first seal 4' is set outside the connection cavity, which will increase the radial size of the connector 3', which is not conducive to the thin and light design of the electronic device 10'. The second seal 5' is generally filled with glue. Due to the different thermal expansion coefficients of the second seal 5', the shell 32' and the body 31', when the connector 3' is welded to the circuit board 2', there is a problem that the second seal 5' cracks after the temperature of the connector 3' rises, resulting in waterproof failure. The waterproof yield is low and the usability is poor. It is often due to changes in the material and shape of the shell 32'. Reselecting the glue model requires a lot of time and cost to verify the process parameters.
本申请的电子设备10中,仅连接部31与连接通道12的通道内壁121之间,存在能够与安装腔11连通的配合间隙,减少了水汽从连接腔13进入安装腔11内的路径,因此,仅需在连接部31与通道内壁121之间做一道防水即可保证安装腔11的密封性,降低了防水难度,提高了防水良率,节约了成本。In the electronic device 10 of the present application, there is only a fitting gap between the connecting portion 31 and the channel inner wall 121 of the connecting channel 12 that can communicate with the installation cavity 11, which reduces the path for water vapor to enter the installation cavity 11 from the connecting cavity 13. Therefore, only a waterproof layer needs to be made between the connecting portion 31 and the channel inner wall 121 to ensure the sealing of the installation cavity 11, which reduces the difficulty of waterproofing, improves the waterproofing yield, and saves costs.
在一种具体实施例中,如图4、图9和图10所示,电子设备10还包括密封件4,密封件4设置于连接部31与通道内壁121之间。In a specific embodiment, as shown in FIG. 4 , FIG. 9 and FIG. 10 , the electronic device 10 further includes a sealing member 4 , and the sealing member 4 is disposed between the connecting portion 31 and the inner wall 121 of the channel.
本实施例中,如图4、图9和图10所示,密封件4设置于连接部31与通道内壁121之间能够封堵连接部31与通道内壁121之间的配合间隙,防止水汽从连接部31与通道内壁121之间的配合间隙进入安装腔11内,提升了电子设备10的防水效果,且密封件4设置于连接部31与通道内壁121之间,占用空间小,不会额外占用沿径向方向高或宽于连接腔13以外的空间,能够实现小尺寸的防水设置,有利于电子设备10的整机轻薄化设计,满足市场的需求。In this embodiment, as shown in Figures 4, 9 and 10, the seal 4 is arranged between the connecting portion 31 and the inner wall 121 of the channel to block the fitting gap between the connecting portion 31 and the inner wall 121 of the channel, and prevent water vapor from entering the installation cavity 11 from the fitting gap between the connecting portion 31 and the inner wall 121 of the channel, thereby improving the waterproof effect of the electronic device 10. The seal 4 is arranged between the connecting portion 31 and the inner wall 121 of the channel, occupies a small space, and does not occupy additional space that is higher or wider than the connecting cavity 13 in the radial direction. A small-size waterproof setting can be achieved, which is conducive to the lightweight design of the electronic device 10 and meets market demand.
其中,密封件4可以通过多种方式设置于连接部31与通道内壁121之间,例如设置于通道内壁121上或设置于连接部31上等,下面通过具体实施例进行描述。The sealing member 4 may be disposed between the connecting portion 31 and the channel inner wall 121 in a variety of ways, such as being disposed on the channel inner wall 121 or on the connecting portion 31 , etc., which will be described below through specific embodiments.
在一种实施方案中,如图9和图10所示,连接部31设置有凹槽312,密封件4设置于凹槽312内,并与通道内壁121配合。In one embodiment, as shown in FIG. 9 and FIG. 10 , the connection portion 31 is provided with a groove 312 , and the sealing member 4 is disposed in the groove 312 and cooperates with the inner wall 121 of the channel.
本实施例中,如图9和图10所示,密封件4设置于连接部31上,在连接器3与电路板2和机壳1装配前,需将密封件4与连接部31连接,从而能够在连接器3与机壳1的组装过程中,实现电子设备10的防水设置,降低了密封件4的安装难度,提升了整机装配效率,且在安装过程中,密封件4与舌芯32不会产生干涉,提高了电子设备10的合格良率。同时,凹槽312能够增加密封件4与连接部31的接触面积,从而提高密封件4与连接部31的连接强度,且能够限制密封件4在连接器3上沿轴向的位移,避免密封件4在连接器3与机壳1的组装过程中发生挤压移动,而影响连接器3上其他部件的功能,进一步提高了电子设备10的结构稳定性和防水良率。In this embodiment, as shown in FIG9 and FIG10, the seal 4 is arranged on the connection part 31. Before the connector 3 is assembled with the circuit board 2 and the housing 1, the seal 4 needs to be connected to the connection part 31, so that the electronic device 10 can be waterproofed during the assembly process of the connector 3 and the housing 1, which reduces the installation difficulty of the seal 4 and improves the assembly efficiency of the whole machine. In addition, during the installation process, the seal 4 and the tongue core 32 will not interfere with each other, thereby improving the qualified yield of the electronic device 10. At the same time, the groove 312 can increase the contact area between the seal 4 and the connection part 31, thereby improving the connection strength between the seal 4 and the connection part 31, and can limit the axial displacement of the seal 4 on the connector 3, avoiding the seal 4 from being squeezed and moved during the assembly process of the connector 3 and the housing 1, thereby affecting the functions of other components on the connector 3, and further improving the structural stability and waterproof yield of the electronic device 10.
具体地,如图9所示,密封件4可以通过注塑形成于凹槽312内。Specifically, as shown in FIG. 9 , the sealing member 4 may be formed in the groove 312 by injection molding.
本实施例中,如图9所示,当密封件4注塑形成于连接部31的凹槽312内时,进一步增加了密封件4与连接部31的连接强度,同时,使密封件4与连接器3形成一体,使密封件4无需通过另外的人工安装于连接部31,进一步提高了电子设备10的装配效率。In this embodiment, as shown in Figure 9, when the seal 4 is injection molded in the groove 312 of the connecting part 31, the connection strength between the seal 4 and the connecting part 31 is further increased. At the same time, the seal 4 is integrated with the connector 3, so that the seal 4 does not need to be installed on the connecting part 31 by additional manual operation, thereby further improving the assembly efficiency of the electronic device 10.
当密封件4可以通过注塑形成于凹槽312内时,在一种具体实施例中,如图9所示,密封件4可以包括本体41和凸起42,本体41与凹槽312固定连接,凸起42与通道内壁121配合连接。When the seal 4 can be formed in the groove 312 by injection molding, in a specific embodiment, as shown in FIG. 9 , the seal 4 can include a body 41 and a protrusion 42 , the body 41 is fixedly connected to the groove 312 , and the protrusion 42 is cooperatively connected to the inner wall 121 of the channel.
本实施例中,如图8所示,该结构能够降低密封件4的制造材料,节约成本,且凸起42易于产生形变,从而能够降低连接器3与机壳1的安装难度,提高电子设备10的装配效率。In this embodiment, as shown in FIG. 8 , the structure can reduce the manufacturing material of the seal 4 and save costs, and the protrusion 42 is easy to deform, thereby reducing the difficulty of installing the connector 3 and the housing 1 and improving the assembly efficiency of the electronic device 10 .
当然,密封件4也可以以其他形状的注塑形成于凹槽312,例如圈环状等,在此不作限制。Of course, the sealing member 4 may also be formed in the groove 312 by injection molding in other shapes, such as a ring shape, etc., which is not limited here.
在另一种具体实施例中,如图10所示,密封件4也可以卡设于凹槽312内。In another specific embodiment, as shown in FIG. 10 , the sealing member 4 may also be clamped in the groove 312 .
本实施例中,如图10所示,密封件4卡设与凹槽312内,能够实现密封件4与连接部31的可拆卸连接,便于密封件4的更换,有利于电子设备10的后续维修,降低了用户的维修成本,提升用户的使用体验。In this embodiment, as shown in FIG. 10 , the seal 4 is clamped in the groove 312 , which enables a detachable connection between the seal 4 and the connecting portion 31 , facilitates replacement of the seal 4 , is beneficial to subsequent maintenance of the electronic device 10 , reduces maintenance costs for users, and improves user experience.
当密封件4卡设与凹槽312时,在一种具体实施例中,如图10所示,密封件4可以为环状。When the sealing member 4 is engaged with the groove 312 , in a specific embodiment, as shown in FIG. 10 , the sealing member 4 may be annular.
本实施例中,如图10所示,密封件4为环状时,人工将密封件4安装于连接部31的过程中,无需考虑安装角度,降低了安装难度,易于拆装,提高了拆装效率,且环状密封件4易于生产加工成型,便于大批量生产,节约成本。In this embodiment, as shown in Figure 10, when the seal 4 is annular, there is no need to consider the installation angle when manually installing the seal 4 on the connecting portion 31, which reduces the difficulty of installation, facilitates disassembly and assembly, and improves disassembly and assembly efficiency. In addition, the annular seal 4 is easy to produce and process, which is convenient for mass production and saves costs.
当然,密封件4也可为其他形状,在此不做限制。Of course, the sealing member 4 may also be in other shapes, which is not limited here.
在另一种实施方案中,密封件4也可以与通道内壁121固定连接,并与连接部31配合连接。In another embodiment, the sealing member 4 may also be fixedly connected to the inner wall 121 of the channel and cooperatively connected to the connecting portion 31 .
本实施例中,密封件4设置于通道内壁121上时,连接部31无需设置另外的安装密封件4的相关的限位或连接结构,降低了连接器3的制造难度,且该结构设计可以在通道内壁121上,实现沿轴向长度分布范围更广的密封件4,从而进一步提高防水良率。In this embodiment, when the seal 4 is arranged on the inner wall 121 of the channel, the connection portion 31 does not need to be provided with any additional limiting or connecting structure for installing the seal 4, thereby reducing the manufacturing difficulty of the connector 3. In addition, this structural design can achieve a wider distribution range of the seal 4 along the axial length on the inner wall 121 of the channel, thereby further improving the waterproof yield.
上述密封件均可以为硅胶、硅橡胶、橡胶等具有防水、弹性佳、耐高温、不易老化的柔性材质制成,以提高密封件4的使用寿命和防水性能。The above-mentioned sealing members can all be made of flexible materials such as silicone, silicone rubber, rubber, etc. that are waterproof, elastic, high temperature resistant, and not easy to age, so as to improve the service life and waterproof performance of the sealing member 4.
需要说明的是,如图9和图10所示,上述连接通道12的长度只要保证能够容纳密封件4的同时,保 证连接部31的端面311能够位于连接通道12内即可,在此不作限制。It should be noted that, as shown in FIG9 and FIG10, the length of the connecting channel 12 is sufficient to accommodate the sealing member 4 while ensuring It is sufficient that the end surface 311 of the connecting portion 31 can be located in the connecting channel 12 , and no limitation is made here.
