請參閱第一圖,電連接器1包括絕緣本體10、收容於絕緣本體10的導電端子20和卡持於絕緣本體10兩端的鎖板結構30。Referring to the first figure, the electrical connector 1 includes an insulative housing 10 , a conductive terminal 20 received in the insulative housing 10 , and a lock plate structure 30 held on opposite ends of the insulative housing 10 .

請參閱第二圖與第三圖,絕緣本體10為沿導電端子20排列方向延伸的塑膠殼體,絕緣本體10設有一個對接面101和與對接面101相對的安裝面102,以及垂直於對接面101和安裝面102的第一側面103和第二側面104。第一側面103和第二側面104彼此平行相對。貫穿於對接面101和安裝面102設有複數收容導電端子20的收容槽105。絕緣本體10靠近導電端子20排列方向的兩端凹陷形成用以干涉卡持鎖板結構30的干涉槽106。該干涉槽106與第一側面103和安裝面102相貫通。第一側面103沿導電端子20排列方向的兩端凸出設有凸台部107。干涉槽106靠近凸台部107的部分凹陷設有用以方便鎖板結構30安裝的凹陷部108。Referring to the second and third figures, the insulative housing 10 is a plastic housing extending along the direction in which the conductive terminals 20 are arranged. The insulative housing 10 is provided with an abutting surface 101 and a mounting surface 102 opposite to the mating surface 101, and perpendicular to the docking Face 101 and first side 103 and second side 104 of mounting surface 102. The first side 103 and the second side 104 are parallel to each other. A plurality of receiving grooves 105 for accommodating the conductive terminals 20 are provided through the mating surface 101 and the mounting surface 102. The two ends of the insulative housing 10 adjacent to the direction in which the conductive terminals 20 are arranged are recessed to form interference grooves 106 for interfering with the latching plate structure 30. The interference groove 106 penetrates the first side surface 103 and the mounting surface 102. The first side surface 103 is convexly provided at both ends of the direction in which the conductive terminals 20 are arranged. A portion of the interference groove 106 near the boss portion 107 is recessed to provide a recess 108 for facilitating the mounting of the lock plate structure 30.

導電端子20包括干涉卡持於收容槽105內的卡持部201,卡持部201向絕緣本體10的第二側面104延伸設有與一印刷電路板(未圖示)焊接的焊接部202,同時卡持部201向絕緣本體10的對接面101延伸設有與一對接連接器(未圖示)對接的對接部203。導電端子20的卡持部201、焊接部202和對接部203共同構成大致L型。The conductive terminal 20 includes a latching portion 201 that interferes with the receiving slot 105. The latching portion 201 extends to the second side surface 104 of the insulative housing 10 to provide a soldering portion 202 that is soldered to a printed circuit board (not shown). At the same time, the holding portion 201 extends to the mating surface 101 of the insulative housing 10 with a mating portion 203 that abuts against a pair of connectors (not shown). The holding portion 201 of the conductive terminal 20, the welded portion 202, and the abutting portion 203 together form a substantially L-shape.

鎖板結構30包括一固持部301,該固持部301包括一固持板3010,固持板3010向對接面101延伸有第一固持臂3011和第二固持臂3012,第一固持臂3011長於第二固持臂3012設置。第一固持臂3011的兩相對側面凸設有干涉塊3013。自第一固持臂3011延伸並且向凸台部107彎折形成突出第一側面103的抵持部3014。兩抵持部3014能夠抵於凸台部107的上表面,即遠離安裝面的一側,而產生一定的抵持力。抵持部3014彼此反向延伸,用以提供左右兩端平衡的抵持力。固持部301靠近安裝面102的一側延伸有一對具有彈性的鎖板腳302。The locking plate structure 30 includes a holding portion 301. The holding portion 301 includes a holding plate 3010. The holding plate 3010 extends to the mating surface 101 with a first holding arm 3011 and a second holding arm 3012. The first holding arm 3011 is longer than the second holding. Arm 3012 is provided. The opposite sides of the first holding arm 3011 are convexly provided with an interference block 3013. The first holding arm 3011 extends and is bent toward the boss portion 107 to form a resisting portion 3014 that protrudes from the first side surface 103. The two abutting portions 3014 can abut against the upper surface of the boss portion 107, that is, the side away from the mounting surface, and generate a certain resisting force. The abutting portions 3014 extend in opposite directions to each other to provide a balanced holding force between the left and right ends. A pair of elastic locking plates 302 extend from a side of the holding portion 301 adjacent to the mounting surface 102.

組裝時,導電端子20由絕緣本體10的安裝面102組入並干涉卡持於收容槽105。鎖板結構30連接於料帶上,並且抵持部3014未被折彎。將同一料帶上彼此有一定間距的鎖板結構30,自絕緣本體10的安裝面102由下向上組入,並使鎖板結構30干涉卡持於複數絕緣本體10同一側的干涉槽106中。另一料帶上的鎖板結構30也以同樣的方式組入絕緣本體10另一側的干涉槽106中。鎖板結構30全部組入絕緣本體10之後,將料帶裁切,並用治具(未圖示)將鎖板結構30的抵持部3014向對應凸台部107的方向折彎,使抵持部3014位於凸台部107上。這種結構和組裝方式,使得原來繁瑣的逐個插鎖板結構30的流程得到簡化,凹陷部108方便端子的彎折。當電連接器受到外力被向上拉扯時(即遠離安裝面),凸台可限制鎖板結構30的抵持部3014向上移動,即電連接器受到與運動方向相反的抵持力,保證電連接器能夠穩定固持於印刷電路板之上。而第一固持臂3011和第二固持臂3012長短不同的設計,也能夠提供穩定的固持力。During assembly, the conductive terminals 20 are assembled by the mounting surface 102 of the insulative housing 10 and interfere with the receiving slots 105. The lock plate structure 30 is attached to the tape and the abutment portion 3014 is not bent. The same material is placed on the lock plate structure 30 with a certain distance from each other, and the mounting surface 102 of the insulative housing 10 is assembled from the bottom to the top, and the lock plate structure 30 is interfered with the interference groove 106 on the same side of the plurality of insulating bodies 10. . The lock plate structure 30 on the other tape is also incorporated into the interference groove 106 on the other side of the insulative housing 10 in the same manner. After the lock plate structure 30 is completely assembled into the insulative housing 10, the tape is cut, and the resisting portion 3014 of the lock plate structure 30 is bent in the direction of the corresponding boss portion 107 by a jig (not shown) to resist The portion 3014 is located on the boss portion 107. This structure and assembly method simplifies the flow of the original cumbersome latch-by-lock structure 30, and the recess 108 facilitates the bending of the terminals. When the electrical connector is pulled upward by an external force (ie, away from the mounting surface), the boss can restrict the upward movement of the resisting portion 3014 of the lock plate structure 30, that is, the electrical connector is subjected to a resisting force opposite to the moving direction to ensure electrical connection. The device can be stably held on the printed circuit board. The design of the first holding arm 3011 and the second holding arm 3012 is different in length and length, and can also provide stable holding force.
