The portion 1820 and the second clamping portion 1822 collectively clamp the signal line to prevent it from coming off. After the signal line passes through the terminal opening 100 of the base 10, it passes through the clamping space 1824 of the engaging member 182 to electrically connect the conductive terminals. Of course, the fixed structure is not limited to the embodiment shown in the third figure, and the above description and drawings are merely a reference example.

The connector 1a of the present embodiment also includes a base 10a, a plurality of connecting terminals 12 disposed on the first outer side 104, and a first connecting slot 120. The difference between the embodiment and the first and second embodiments is: The second connecting groove 140 is disposed inside the base 10a, and the position where the second connecting groove 140 is disposed still corresponds to the position of the connecting opening 102. When the signal terminal penetrates into the second connecting slot 140, the signal terminal penetrates into the base 10a. In the base 10a of the embodiment, the structure 18 is fixed by the body 180 and the engaging member 182, and the signal line penetrating the first connecting slot 120 is locked by the engaging member 182 to make the metal wire of the signal line The clamping space 1824 formed by the first clamping portion 1820 and the second clamping portion 1822 passes through the conductive terminal and is electrically connected to the signal terminal penetrating the second connecting groove 140.

The adapter terminal 32 is disposed on the first body outer side 300, and the second boss portion 34 is disposed on the second body outer side 302. The second protruding portion 34 is provided with a plurality of third connecting slots 340 extending through the second protruding portion 34 . The position of each of the third connecting slots 340 corresponds to the plurality of switching openings 304 provided by the main body 30 . Each of the adapter terminals 32 is electrically connected to a third connection slot 340 by a conductive terminal 36 in the body 30.

其中,連接器1b的每個連接端子12仍用於供訊號線穿入其第一連接槽120,而轉接器3的複數轉接端子32則一一對應穿入連接器1b的第二連接槽140,使轉接端子32與穿入第一連接槽120的訊號線電連接。轉接器3的第三連接槽340用於電連接一組訊號端子。Each of the connection terminals 12 of the connector 1b is still used for the signal line to penetrate into the first connection slot 120, and the plurality of adapter terminals 32 of the adapter 3 correspond to the second connection of the connector 1b.

本實施例之連接裝置50之組合示意圖請參照第七圖。由於每一連接端子12個別與一個第二連接槽140電連接;每一個轉接端子32個別與一個第三連接槽340電連接;而連接器1b與轉接器3又透過轉接端子32穿入第二連接槽140而一一電連接;因此,穿入第三連接槽340的訊號端子,即可接收到穿入第一連接槽120之訊號線所傳送的訊號源。當使用者將傳送訊號源的訊號線穿入不同的第一連接槽120時,訊號源就會由該組訊號端子中不同的端子所接收。Please refer to the seventh figure for the schematic diagram of the combination of the connecting device 50 of this embodiment. Each of the connection terminals 12 is electrically connected to a second connection slot 140; each of the adapter terminals 32 is electrically connected to a third connection slot 340; and the connector 1b and the adapter 3 are further passed through the adapter terminal 32. The second connection slot 140 is electrically connected to each other; therefore, the signal terminal that penetrates the third connection slot 340 can receive the signal source transmitted by the signal line that penetrates the first connection slot 120. When the user penetrates the signal line of the transmission signal source into the different first connection slot 120, the signal source is received by different terminals of the group of signal terminals.

在其他的連接裝置實施例中,所述的連接器係可如第四圖所示,將第二連接槽140設置在基座10a中,並且亦以固定結構18將訊號線固定;而轉接器之設置亦可仿照第四圖之連接器的結構,將第三連接槽340設置在主體30中,以減少連接裝置的體積。In other embodiments of the connecting device, the connector can be disposed in the base 10a as shown in the fourth figure, and the signal line is also fixed by the fixing structure 18; The arrangement of the device can also be similar to the structure of the connector of the fourth figure, and the third connecting groove 340 is disposed in the main body 30 to reduce the volume of the connecting device.

第八圖係為本發明所提供的一種電子裝置控制系統實施例之示意圖,其係供控制單元利用上述實施例中的連接裝置,便利地對不同規格的電子裝置進行控制。在本實施例中,控制單元為嵌入式系統的一主機板52,電子裝置係為一顯示裝置54,二者以低電壓差分訊號(Low Voltage Difference Signal,LVDS)傳輸介面進行訊號傳輸,顯示裝置54的一組訊號端子540及主機板52之一組訊號傳輸端子520係相容於低電壓差分訊號之標準。The eighth figure is a schematic diagram of an embodiment of an electronic device control system provided by the present invention, which is used by the control unit to conveniently control electronic devices of different specifications by using the connection device in the above embodiment. In this embodiment, the control unit is a motherboard 52 of the embedded system, and the electronic device is a display device 54. The two are transmitted by a low voltage difference signal (LVDS) transmission interface, and the display device is displayed. A set of signal terminals 540 of 54 and a set of signal transmission terminals 520 of the motherboard 52 are compatible with the standard of low voltage differential signals.

當測試人員欲將顯示裝置54連接到主機板52以進行測試時,可先將訊號端子540***連接裝置50中的第三連接槽以對應電連接;或是經由一連接纜線58,由連接纜線58兩端分別將訊號端子540與第三連接槽對應連結。與顯示裝置54連接後的連接裝置50,其每一連接端子12即相當於訊號端子540上的每一接腳(pin)。測試人員即可將訊號線56的一端連接於主機板52之訊號傳輸端子520上,另一端則根據每一個訊號端子540與每一個訊號傳輸端子520的接腳配置(pin assignment)關係,將連接於訊號傳輸端子520上特定孔位的訊號線56穿入連接端子的第一連接槽,以將訊號透過連接裝置50傳送到應與所述孔位對應連接的訊號端子540接腳上。When the tester wants to connect the display device 54 to the motherboard 52 for testing, the signal terminal 540 may be first inserted into the third connection slot in the connection device 50 to be electrically connected; or connected via a connection cable 58. The signal terminals 540 are respectively connected to the third connection slots at opposite ends of the cable 58. Each of the connection terminals 12 connected to the display device 54 corresponds to each pin on the signal terminal 540. The tester can connect one end of the signal line 56 to the signal transmission terminal 520 of the motherboard 52, and the other end will be connected according to the pin assignment relationship of each of the signal terminals 540 and each of the signal transmission terminals 520. The signal line 56 of the specific hole position on the signal transmission terminal 520 penetrates into the first connection slot of the connection terminal to transmit the signal through the connection device 50 to the signal terminal 540 pin correspondingly connected to the hole position.

經由連接裝置50傳送訊號的優點在於,當使用者欲連接不同規格的各個顯示裝置到主機板52上一一測試,而各個顯示裝置與主機板52的接腳配置不同時,使用者並不需要為了適應各種不同接腳配置關係,而準備多種專用傳輸線。使用者只需要根據顯示裝置的訊號端子與訊號傳輸端子520的接腳配置關係,改變訊號線56所穿入的第一連接槽120的位置即可。The advantage of transmitting the signal via the connection device 50 is that when the user wants to connect the display devices of different specifications to the motherboard 52 for testing one by one, and the pin configuration of each display device and the motherboard 52 is different, the user does not need to In order to adapt to various pin configuration relationships, a variety of dedicated transmission lines are prepared. The user only needs to change the position of the first connection slot 120 through which the signal line 56 is inserted according to the pin arrangement relationship between the signal terminal of the display device and the signal transmission terminal 520.

舉一具體例子說明,例如顯示裝置A為一1280×1024像素的雙通道面板,而顯示裝置B為一1680×1050像素的雙通道面板,其訊號端子a及b各具有30個接腳,自第1個接腳到第30個接腳分別用於傳輸不同的訊號,如電源(VCC)輸入、電源接地(GND)或時脈(CLK)輸入。顯示裝置A與主機板52的接腳配置異於顯示裝置B與主機板52的接腳配置,換言之,訊號端子a與訊號端子b中相同的接腳位置並不一定連接到訊號傳輸端子520上的相同孔位。例如:訊號端子a的第30個腳位不需要連接到訊號傳輸端子520,但是訊號端子b的第30個腳位則需要連接到訊號傳輸端子520的第15個孔位上。在此情形下,當顯示裝置A連接在連接裝置50上時,連接裝置50的第30個連接端子12不需穿入任何訊號線56;但顯示裝置B連接於連接裝置50時,第30個連接端子12則穿入連著訊號傳輸端子520的第15個孔位上的訊號線56。如此,即可供使用者,特別是嵌入式系統的測試人員,自由變換不同規格的電子裝置,而便利且省時地進行與控制單元的連接測試。For example, the display device A is a two-channel panel of 1280×1024 pixels, and the display device B is a two-channel panel of 1680×1050 pixels, and the signal terminals a and b each have 30 pins. The first pin to the 30th pin are used to transmit different signals, such as power (VCC) input, power ground (GND) or clock (CLK) input. The pin configuration of the display device A and the motherboard 52 is different from the pin configuration of the display device B and the motherboard 52. In other words, the same pin position in the signal terminal a and the signal terminal b is not necessarily connected to the signal transmission terminal 520. The same hole position.
