Description
本發明係與電連接器有關，特別有關於一種連接器之舌板結構及其製法。 The present invention relates to electrical connectors, and more particularly to a tongue structure for a connector and a method of making same.
傳統上，各電子產品之間可利用一電連接器及纜線來作電性連接，其係將訊號自一電子產品傳輸至另一電子產品上，藉以達到產品間的連接功能。 Traditionally, an electrical connector and a cable can be electrically connected between electronic products, which are used to transmit signals from one electronic product to another electronic product, thereby achieving a connection function between products.
目前在資料傳輸之規格上，USB(Universal Serial Bus，通用序列匯流排)及eSATA(External Serial Advanced Technology Attachment，外部序列高階技術配置)係為較常見的傳輸介面。為符合上述二種規格，市面上已有符合USB與eSATA二種規格以上的多合一型的電連接器插座。 At present, in terms of data transmission specifications, USB (Universal Serial Bus) and eSATA (External Serial Advanced Technology Attachment) are common transmission interfaces. In order to meet the above two specifications, there is an all-in-one type of electrical connector socket that meets both USB and eSATA specifications.
上述多合一型的電連接器插座主要係透過舌板之上、下表面來分別供USB端子與eSATA端子配置，以供USB接頭及eSATA接頭分別***使用。由於該舌板的上、下表面皆須開設有複數端子槽，以結合複數導電端子，然而，該些端子槽的開設卻影響舌板的整體結構強度，進而影響插接時的穩定度，且將該些導電端子分別組設在端子槽內，亦相當耗時費力；再者，當舌板毀損時通常須將整 個連接器丟棄，造成材料浪費與損失。 The above-mentioned all-in-one type of electrical connector sockets are mainly configured by the USB terminal and the eSATA terminal through the upper and lower surfaces of the tongue plate for respectively inserting and using the USB connector and the eSATA connector. Since the upper and lower surfaces of the tongue plate are to be provided with a plurality of terminal slots for combining the plurality of conductive terminals, the opening of the terminal slots affects the overall structural strength of the tongue plate, thereby affecting the stability during the insertion, and It is also time-consuming and laborious to set the conductive terminals separately in the terminal slots; in addition, when the tongue is damaged, it is usually necessary to The connectors are discarded, resulting in material waste and loss.
有鑑於此，本發明人為改善並解決上述之缺失，乃特潛心研究並配合學理之運用，終於提出一種設計合理且有效改善上述缺失之本發明。 In view of the above, the present inventors have made great efforts to improve and solve the above-mentioned shortcomings, and have finally made a proposal to rationally and effectively improve the above-mentioned defects.
本發明之一目的，在於提供一種用於連接器之舌板結構及其製法，以維持舌板的整體結構強度，並保持插接時的穩定度。 It is an object of the present invention to provide a tongue plate structure for a connector and a method of making the same to maintain the overall structural strength of the tongue and maintain stability during insertion.
本發明之另一目的，在於提供一種用於連接器之舌板結構及其製法，其舌板結構強度高，不致因外力的撞擊而毀損，故可降低維修率，並避免材料浪費。 Another object of the present invention is to provide a tongue plate structure for a connector and a method for manufacturing the same, wherein the tongue plate structure has high strength and is not damaged by the impact of an external force, thereby reducing the maintenance rate and avoiding material waste.
為了達成上述之目的，本發明係為一種用於連接器之舌板結構，其係連接在連接器的絕緣座上，舌板結構包括舌板及複數導接墊，舌板為不具任何電路的板體，板體上係定義有複數導接區，導接墊以印刷方式對應結合在導接區上。 In order to achieve the above object, the present invention is a tongue plate structure for a connector which is connected to an insulating seat of a connector, the tongue plate structure includes a tongue plate and a plurality of guiding pads, and the tongue plate has no circuit. The board body defines a plurality of guiding areas on the board body, and the guiding pads are correspondingly combined on the guiding area in a printing manner.
為了達成上述之目的，本發明係為一種用於連接器之舌板結構的製法，舌板連接在連接器的絕緣座上，舌板的製造方法包括：a)提供不具任何電路的一板體；b)在該板體上定義複數導接區；以及c)利用印刷方式在該些導接區上形成複數導接墊。 In order to achieve the above object, the present invention is a method for fabricating a tongue plate structure for a connector, the tongue plate being coupled to an insulating seat of the connector, the method of manufacturing the tongue plate comprising: a) providing a plate body without any circuit ; b) defining a plurality of guiding regions on the plate; and c) forming a plurality of guiding pads on the guiding regions by printing.
本發明之又一目的，在於提供一種用於連接器之舌板結構及其製法，其係在導接區上形成凹槽，並將導接墊印刷在凹槽中，以利於精確地印刷出導接墊，增加印刷導接墊時的良率。 Another object of the present invention is to provide a tongue plate structure for a connector and a method for manufacturing the same, which form a groove on the guiding area and print the guiding pad in the groove to facilitate accurate printing The pad is used to increase the yield when printing the pad.
相較於習知技術，本發明之舌板係單純為絕緣板體而非電路板， 因而不具有任何電路，本發明係以印刷方式將導接墊印刷在導接區上而作為導電部，藉以取代習知在舌板上開設複數溝槽，並將導電端子結合在溝槽的技術手段，由於本發明之舌板不需開設溝槽，固可維持舌板的整體結構強度，以保持插接時的穩定度；再者，本發明係藉由改變導電部的設置方式，省略習知導電端子的設置與組設，並可降低維修率，避免材料浪費，增加本發明之實用性。 Compared with the prior art, the tongue plate of the present invention is simply an insulating plate body instead of a circuit board. Therefore, there is no circuit, and the present invention prints the conductive pad on the guiding area as a conductive part, thereby replacing the conventional technique of forming a plurality of grooves on the tongue plate and bonding the conductive terminals to the groove. According to the method, the tongue plate of the present invention does not need to have a groove, so that the overall structural strength of the tongue plate can be maintained to maintain the stability during the insertion; further, the present invention omits the manner of changing the arrangement of the conductive portion. Knowing the arrangement and assembly of the conductive terminals, the maintenance rate can be reduced, material waste can be avoided, and the utility of the invention can be increased.
