Abstract
A power interface may include a housing, a connection body, and a second stopping plate. A first stopping plate may be arranged in the housing. The connection body may be arranged in the housing. An engaging flange may be arranged on the connection body. A second stopping plate may be attached on an inner face of the housing along a circumference direction of the housing. The second stopping plate may be spaced apart from the first stopping plate. The engaging flange may be sandwiched between the first stopping plate and the second stopping plate. A mobile terminal and a method for manufacturing a power interface are also provided.
Claims20
A power interface, comprising:
- a housing, wherein a first stopping plate is arranged in the housing;
- a connection body, arranged in the housing, wherein an engaging flange is arranged on the connection body;
- and
- a second stopping plate, attached on an inner face of the housing along a circumference direction of the housing, wherein the second stopping plate is spaced apart from the first stopping plate, and the engaging flange is sandwiched between the first stopping plate and the second stopping plate;
- wherein the second stopping plate extends along a peripheral circumferential direction of the connection body to shape an annular configuration;
- wherein the connection body comprises at least one power-pin assembly, and each power-pin assembly comprises a pair of power pins spaced apart from each other, the power interface further comprising an intermediate patch sandwiched between the pair of power pins and directly contacted with each power pin of the pair of power pins.
A method for manufacturing a power interface, comprising:
- processing a housing, wherein a first stopping plate is arranged in the housing;
- mounting a connection body into the housing, wherein an engaging flange is arranged on the connection body;
- and
- welding a second stopping plate on an inner face of the housing, wherein the second stopping plate is attached on the inner face of the housing along a circumference direction of the housing and spaced apart from the first stopping plate, such that the engaging flange is sandwiched between the first stopping plate and the second stopping plate;
- wherein the second stopping plate extends along a peripheral circumferential direction of the connection body to shape an annular configuration;
- wherein the connection body comprises at least one power-pin assembly, and each power-pin assembly comprises a pair of power pins spaced apart from each other, the power interface further comprising an intermediate patch sandwiched between the pair of power pins and directly contacted with each power pin of the pair of power pins.
A mobile terminal comprising:
- a circuit board;
- and
- a power interface, configured to be connected to a power adapter and comprising:
- a housing, connected to the circuit board;
- a stopping plate arranged in the housing and connected to the housing, defining a first through hole;
- an annular baffle arranged in the housing and connected to the housing, defining a second through hole, and spaced apart from the stopping plate;
- a connection body arranged in the housing and passing through the first through hole and the second through hole, connected to the circuit board;
- and
- a plurality of positioning protrusions arranged on a peripheral face of the connection body, sandwiched between the stopping plate and the annular baffle;
- wherein the connection body comprises at least one power-pin assembly, and each power-pin assembly comprises a pair of power pins spaced apart from each other, the power interface further comprises an intermediate patch sandwiched between the pair of power pins and directly contacted with each power pin of the pair of power pins.
The mobile terminal of claim of 17, wherein at least one of the pair of power pins comprises an expanded portion, and the expanded portion has a cross-sectional area larger than that of a data pin of the connection body to increase a current load of the at least one of the pair of power pins.
The mobile terminal of claim of 17, wherein the intermediate patch comprises a head end close to a front end of the pair of power pins, a tail end close to a rear end of the pair of power pins, a connection portion connected between the head end and the tail end, and a crimping arranged at the tail end and bent in a direction towards one of the pair of power pins to wrap the one of the pair of power pins.
