Description
本創作係關於一種卡緣連接器組合之定位方法，尤其涉及一種以頭靠頭方式設置之卡緣連接器組合之定位方法。 The present invention relates to a positioning method of a card edge connector combination, and more particularly to a positioning method of a card edge connector combination provided by a headrest.
美國發明專利公告第5,882,211號揭示了一種卡緣連接器組合，其包括以頭靠頭方式設置之標準連接器(Standard Connector)與反向連接器(Reverse Connector)。其中，所述標準連接器包括縱長之絕緣本體及位於絕緣本體兩端向前延伸之絕緣支臂，絕緣本體內還固定有複數導電端子以傳輸訊號。絕緣本體內於靠近右邊支臂的位置處設有鍵扣以防止電子卡安裝時誤插。反向連接器的結構與標準連接器的結構相似，其中鍵扣設置於絕緣本體靠近左邊支臂的位置處。標準連接器與反向連接器以頭靠頭方式設置於電路板上，這樣可以縮短連接標準連接器與反向連接器之對應端子之間的線路軌跡。 U.S. Patent No. 5,882,211 discloses a card edge connector assembly comprising a standard connector and a reverse connector disposed in a headrest manner. The standard connector includes an elongated insulating body and an insulating arm extending forwardly at opposite ends of the insulating body, and a plurality of conductive terminals are fixed in the insulating body to transmit signals. A key is provided at the position of the insulating body near the right arm to prevent mis-insertion when the electronic card is installed. The structure of the reverse connector is similar to that of a standard connector in which the key is placed at a position near the left arm of the insulative body. The standard connector and the reverse connector are placed on the circuit board in a head-to-head manner, which shortens the line trace between the standard connector and the corresponding terminal of the reverse connector.
由於標準連接器與反向連接器之絕緣本體的兩端一般都向後延伸一段距離以方便包裝，這就會造成以頭靠頭方式設置之標準連接器與反向連接器之間存在一定的距離，並不利於電子產品小型化的發展趨勢。 Since both ends of the insulating body of the standard connector and the reverse connector are generally extended backward by a distance to facilitate packaging, there is a certain distance between the standard connector and the reverse connector provided by the headrest. It is not conducive to the development trend of miniaturization of electronic products.
另，在向電路板上安裝時，標準連接器與反向連接器都需要分別 準確定位，這就增加了安裝的難度且不利於簡化流程。又，電路板上設置過多的定位孔來定位連接器勢必會影響電路板的電路排布，從而增加製造成本。 In addition, when installing on a circuit board, both the standard connector and the reverse connector need to be separated. Accurate positioning increases the difficulty of installation and is not conducive to streamlining the process. Moreover, placing too many positioning holes on the circuit board to position the connector will inevitably affect the circuit arrangement of the circuit board, thereby increasing manufacturing costs.
是以，有必要提供一種改進的卡緣連接器組合之定位方法以解決上述技術問題。 Therefore, it is necessary to provide an improved positioning method of the card edge connector combination to solve the above technical problem.
本創作之主要目的在於提供一種簡單的卡緣連接器組合之定位方法。 The main purpose of this creation is to provide a simple positioning method for the card edge connector combination.

第一卡緣連接器1包括絕緣本體11、設置於絕緣本體11兩端之支臂12及收容於絕緣本體11內之導電端子14。絕緣本體11由塑膠等絕緣材料注塑成型，其內部沿縱長方向設有中央插槽115以收容電子卡的前邊緣，中央插槽115於靠近右邊支臂12處還設有鍵扣13以防止電子卡安裝時誤插。導電端子14分為上下兩排，並且分別收容於中央插槽115之上下兩側以接觸電子卡。導電端子14之焊接腳為針狀焊腳，這將縮小導電端子14於絕緣本體11下方佔用的空間從而讓頭靠頭設置的第一卡緣連接器1與第二卡緣連接器2之間的距離可以縮小。當然，導電端子14之焊接腳也可以係其他 結構，例如焊球結構。在本實施方式中，支臂12由塑膠材料形成，當然，在其他實施方式中，支臂12也可以由金屬材料形成。支臂12自絕緣本體11兩端向前延伸形成，其包括靠內設置之扣持臂121及位於扣持臂121外側之阻擋臂122。扣持臂121於電子卡安裝時提供扣持作用，而阻擋臂122則可以阻止扣持臂121過度向外移動。絕緣本體11之兩端還向後延伸形成相對設置之突出部110，突出部110之間形成一收容空間112。絕緣本體11之底部於突出部的對應位置向下突伸形成定位柱111以在第一卡緣連接器1向電路板上安裝時提供定位作用。 The first card edge connector 1 includes an insulative housing 11 , an arm 12 disposed at two ends of the insulative housing 11 , and a conductive terminal 14 received in the insulative housing 11 . The insulating body 11 is injection-molded by an insulating material such as plastic, and has a central slot 115 in the longitudinal direction to receive the front edge of the electronic card. The central slot 115 is further provided with a key 13 near the right arm 12 to prevent The electronic card is inserted incorrectly during installation. The conductive terminals 14 are divided into upper and lower rows, and are respectively received on the upper and lower sides of the central slot 115 to contact the electronic card. The soldering leg of the conductive terminal 14 is a pin-shaped soldering foot, which will reduce the space occupied by the conductive terminal 14 under the insulating body 11 to allow the first card edge connector 1 and the second card edge connector 2 disposed between the headrest head The distance can be reduced. Of course, the soldering legs of the conductive terminals 14 can also be other Structure, such as solder ball structure. In the present embodiment, the arm 12 is formed of a plastic material. Of course, in other embodiments, the arm 12 may also be formed of a metal material. The arm 12 is formed to extend forward from the two ends of the insulative housing 11 and includes a latching arm 121 disposed therein and a blocking arm 122 located outside the latching arm 121. The latching arm 121 provides a latching action when the electronic card is installed, and the blocking arm 122 prevents the latching arm 121 from moving excessively outward. The two ends of the insulative housing 11 also extend rearward to form oppositely disposed protrusions 110, and a receiving space 112 is formed between the protrusions 110. The bottom of the insulative housing 11 projects downwardly at a corresponding position of the protrusion to form a positioning post 111 to provide a positioning function when the first card edge connector 1 is mounted on the circuit board.
第二卡緣連接器2之結構與第一卡緣連接器1之結構相似，其包括絕緣本體21、設置於絕緣本體21兩端之支臂22及收容於絕緣本體21內之導電端子24。絕緣本體21之底部並沒有設置定位柱。絕緣本體21於支臂22的相反一側設有一對凹陷部210從而讓絕緣本體21的後側呈向外突伸狀態。 The structure of the second card edge connector 2 is similar to that of the first card edge connector 1 . The structure includes an insulative housing 21 , an arm 22 disposed at two ends of the insulative housing 21 , and a conductive terminal 24 received in the insulative housing 21 . A positioning post is not provided at the bottom of the insulative housing 21. The insulating body 21 is provided with a pair of recessed portions 210 on the opposite side of the arm 22 to allow the rear side of the insulative housing 21 to protrude outward.
參閱第二圖至第四圖所示，電路板3上設置有安裝孔31，在卡緣連接器組合向電路板3上安裝時，首先將第一卡緣連接器1之定位柱111對準安裝孔31安裝至電路板3，由於定位柱111與安裝孔31之間的固持關係，第一卡緣連接器1的位置首先被確定。其次，讓第二卡緣連接器2靠近第一卡緣連接器1，並且將第二卡緣連接器2安裝入第一卡緣連接器1之突出部110之間的收容空間112內而定位於電路板上，這時，第一卡緣連接器1之突出部110收容於第二卡緣連接器2之凹陷部210內，從而讓第一卡緣連接器1與第二卡緣連接器2咬合在一起，這將大大縮短第一卡緣連接器1與第二卡緣連接器2之間的距離，從而減小這對卡緣連接器組合在電路 板上佔用的空間。另，第一卡緣連接器1之突出部110可以防止第二卡緣連接器2向兩側運動，從而實現較好的定位效果。 Referring to the second to fourth figures, the circuit board 3 is provided with a mounting hole 31. When the card edge connector assembly is mounted on the circuit board 3, the positioning post 111 of the first card edge connector 1 is first aligned. The mounting hole 31 is mounted to the circuit board 3, and the position of the first card edge connector 1 is first determined due to the holding relationship between the positioning post 111 and the mounting hole 31. Next, the second card edge connector 2 is brought close to the first card edge connector 1, and the second card edge connector 2 is mounted into the receiving space 112 between the protruding portions 110 of the first card edge connector 1 to be positioned. On the circuit board, at this time, the protruding portion 110 of the first card edge connector 1 is received in the recess portion 210 of the second card edge connector 2, thereby allowing the first card edge connector 1 and the second card edge connector 2 Bite together, which will greatly shorten the distance between the first card edge connector 1 and the second card edge connector 2, thereby reducing the pair of card edge connector combinations in the circuit The space occupied on the board. In addition, the protruding portion 110 of the first card edge connector 1 can prevent the second card edge connector 2 from moving to both sides, thereby achieving a better positioning effect.
本創作第一卡緣連接器1之突出部110與第二卡緣連接器2之凹陷部210可以在卡緣連接器組合向電路板上安裝時提供導引及定位作用，因此也可以被稱為配合安裝部。另，本創作之卡緣連接器組合之定位方法簡單方便，有利於簡化流程。 The protruding portion 110 of the first card edge connector 1 and the recess portion 210 of the second card edge connector 2 can provide guiding and positioning functions when the card edge connector assembly is mounted on the circuit board, and thus can also be called To match the installation department. In addition, the positioning method of the card edge connector combination of the present invention is simple and convenient, and is advantageous for simplifying the process.
