如圖4及圖5所示,當該散熱器4位於該非作用位置,該等輔助彈簧部54朝下地施壓於該等輔助彈簧作用部45,該散熱器4的熱耦合面411a通過該頂壁11的窗口162進入該插接空間16,此時該散熱器4的主彈簧作用部44不接觸該施壓構件5的主彈簧部53,且該施壓構件5的主彈簧部53不作用於該散熱器4的主彈簧作用部44。當該可插拔模組3***該罩體1的插接空間16,該可插拔模組3將先推動該散熱器4的導引部412,以使該散熱器4克服該等輔助彈簧部54所提供的作用力並朝上抬升,接著該散熱器4的熱耦合面411a上的熱介面材料411b將接觸到該可插拔模組3的上表面,此時該散熱器4的主彈簧作用部44仍不接觸該施壓構件5的主彈簧部53,且該施壓構件5的主彈簧部53不作用於該散熱器4的主彈簧作用部44。如圖6及圖7所示,最後,當該可插拔模組3朝後推動該散熱器4的受推凸部413及到達與該插座連接器2對接的行程中,使該散熱器4由
該非作用位置朝後移動至該作用位置,需要說明的是,在該散熱器4的受推凸部413被朝後推動後,該受推凸部413將容納於該窗口162的後端的一後端凹部162a處。當該散熱器4在該作用位置,該散熱器4的主彈簧作用部44與該施壓構件5的主彈簧部53接觸,且該施壓構件5的主彈簧部53作用於該散熱器4的主彈簧作用部44的主彈簧作用面441,以提供朝下的作用力使該散熱器4的熱耦合面411a上的熱介面材料411b通過該窗口162具正向力地接觸於該可插拔模組3的上表面。整體來說,在本第一實施例中,該散熱器4在該可插拔模組3***的過程中是由該非作用位置朝上且朝後地移動至該作用位置。另外,需要說明的是,在一變化實施例中,該散熱器4的熱耦合面411a也可以不透過該熱介面材料411b而是直接地接觸該可插拔模組3的上表面。
As shown in FIG. 4 and FIG. 5 , when the
進一步來說,由於該散熱器4的主彈簧作用部44與該施壓構件5的主彈簧部53的傾斜構造,使當該散熱器4在該作用位置時,該施壓構件5的主彈簧部53不僅提供給該散熱器4朝下的作用力,同時也提供給該散熱器4朝前的作用力。因此,當該可插拔模組3自該罩體1的插接空間16退出時,該施壓構件5的主彈簧部53的作用力與該可插拔模組3的摩擦力將使該散熱器4朝前移動,且該施壓構件5的輔助彈簧部54將使該散熱器4朝下移動,以使該散熱器4自該作用位置移動至非作用位置。
Further, due to the inclined structure of the main
在此過程中,該施壓構件5的主彈簧部53提供的較主要且使該散熱器4的熱耦合部411與該可插拔模組3的表面緊密接觸的較大作用力,該施壓構件5的輔助彈簧部54則提供的較次要且使該散熱器4的熱耦合部411透過該窗
口162進入該插接空間16的較小預作用力。並且,由於該施壓構件5的主彈簧部53是在該散熱器4被該可插拔模組3朝後推動之後,才對該散熱器4提供使該散熱器4的熱耦合面411a緊密接觸於該可插拔模組3表面的作用力,因此能夠減少該散熱器4的熱耦合面411a與該可插拔模組3之間在該可插拔模組3的***過程中所產生的摩擦情形,以防止該散熱器4的熱耦合面411a的磨損問題,或是該散熱器4的熱耦合面411a所設置的該熱介面材料411b被刮破的問題。

該導光件用連接件7設於該兩導光件6與該電路板的發光元件之間。該導光件用連接件7具有多個容置孔71,各容置孔71的兩端分別容置對應
的導光件6的導光管61的入光端611以及對應的發光元件,以確保該等發光元件所發出的光線能各自進入對應的導光件6的導光管61的入光端611。另外,每一導光件6的後連接柱64形成有位於內側的一卡槽641,該導光件用連接件7還具有由內而外卡固於對應的導光件6的卡槽641的兩個卡勾72,以及用以穿設於該電路板的定位柱73,藉此使該導光件用連接件7固定於該兩導光件6與該電路板之間。

參閱圖8至圖10,本發明連接器組件100之一第二實施例與該第一實施例的不同之處在於,該罩體1的頂壁11與該散熱器4的基板41之間設有多個支撐彈簧8。進一步來說,在本第二實施例中,罩體1的頂壁11具有位於該窗口162旁且呈一體構造形成的彈片狀的該等支撐彈簧8,但需要說明的是,在其他實施態樣中,該等支撐彈簧8也可以是一體構造地形成於該散熱器4,或該等支撐彈簧8也可以為獨立的構件。

當該散熱器4在該非作用位置,該支撐彈簧8將該散熱器4朝上撐高且使該散熱器4的基板41與該罩體1的頂壁11相間隔,並使該散熱器4的熱耦合面411a不進入該罩體1的插接空間16,此時該散熱器4的主彈簧作用部44不接觸該施壓構件5的主彈簧部53,且該施壓構件5的主彈簧部53不作用於該散熱器4的主彈簧作用部44。當該可插拔模組3(見圖1)***該罩體1的插接空間16及在推動該受推凸部413之前的行程中,該散熱器4的主彈簧作用部44仍不接觸該施壓構件5的主彈簧部53,且該施壓構件5的主彈簧部53不作用於該散熱器4的主彈簧作用部44,因此,此時該散熱器4的熱耦合面411a仍不進入該罩體1的插接
空間16與該可插拔模組3接觸。最後,當該可插拔模組3推動該散熱器4的受推凸部413及到達與該插座連接器2(見圖1)對接的行程中,該散熱器4由該非作用位置朝後移動至該作用位置,當該散熱器4在該作用位置,該散熱器4的主彈簧作用部44與該施壓構件5的主彈簧部53接觸,且該施壓構件5的主彈簧部53作用於該散熱器4的主彈簧作用部44的主彈簧作用面441,以提供朝下的作用力將該散熱器4下壓使該散熱器4的熱耦合面411a通過該窗口162進入該罩體1的插接空間16,並使該散熱器4的熱耦合面411a上的熱介面材料411b具正向力地接觸於該可插拔模組3的上表面。也就是說,在所述可插拔模組3推動所述散熱器4的受推凸部413而使所述散熱器4移動至所述作用位置之前,所述散熱器4的熱耦合面411a不接觸所述可插拔模組3的表面,藉此能夠更進一步地防止所述散熱器4的熱耦合面411a的磨損問題,或是所述散熱器4的熱耦合面411a所設置的所述熱介面材料411b被刮破的問題。整體來說,在本第二實施例中,該散熱器4在該可插拔模組3***的過程中是由該非作用位置朝後且朝下地移動至該作用位置。
When the
另外,當該可插拔模組3自該罩體1的插接空間16退出時,該施壓構件5的主彈簧部53的作用力與該可插拔模組3的摩擦力將使該散熱器4朝前移動,且該等支撐彈簧8將使該散熱器4朝上移動,以使該散熱器4自該作用位置移動至非作用位置。
In addition, when the
綜上所述,本發明連接器組件100的所述施壓構件5不僅用於組裝所述散熱器4,同時也提供了能用於作用在散熱器4的主彈簧部53,並且,所述
施壓構件5的主彈簧部53是在所述散熱器4被所述可插拔模組3朝後推動之後,才對所述散熱器4提供使所述散熱器4的熱耦合面411a接觸於所述可插拔模組3表面的作用力,如此能夠減少所述散熱器4的熱耦合面411a與所述可插拔模組3之間在所述可插拔模組3的***過程中所產生的摩擦情形,以防止所述散熱器4的熱耦合面411a的磨損問題,或是所述散熱器4的熱耦合面411a所設置的所述熱介面材料411b被刮破的問題。
