Abstract
A connector assembly including a female connector and a male connector. The female connector and the male connector both can rotate relatively. The female connector includes a plurality of female conductors, and the male connector includes a plurality of male conductors. When the female connector and the male connector both rotate relatively, each of the female conductors can be electrically connected to at least one of the plurality of male conductors, thereby assuring electrical connection between the female connector and the male connector. This configuration, when being applied to a wearable device, allows function elements of the wearable device to be expanded and modified.
Claims12
A connector assembly including:
- a female connector including:
- a female insulator defined with a first female circular trajectory, and including a first female circular insertion slot and a plurality of first female conductor mounting areas, wherein the first female circular insertion slot is extended along the first female circular trajectory, and the plurality of first female conductor mounting areas are placed at intervals along the first female circular trajectory in a manner that, on the first female circular trajectory there is an interval of first arc angle between adjacent two of the first female conductor mounting areas;
- a plurality of first female conductors, each of which is mounted on a corresponding one of the plurality of first female conductor mounting areas, wherein the plurality of first female conductors are provided on the first female circular trajectory with the interval of first arc angle between adjacent two of the first female conductors;
- and
- a male connector including:
- a male insulator defined with a first male circular trajectory and including a plurality of first male conductor mounting areas, wherein the plurality of first male conductor mounting areas are placed at intervals along the first male circular trajectory in a manner that, on the first male circular trajectory there is an interval of second arc angle between adjacent two of the first male conductor mounting areas;
- a plurality of first male conductors, each of which is mounted on a corresponding one of the plurality of first male conductor mounting areas, wherein the plurality of first male conductors are provided on the first male circular trajectory with the interval of second arc angle between adjacent two of the first male conductors;
- wherein,
- the first female circular trajectory and the first male circular trajectory have substantially identical contour, allowing each of the first male conductors to be able to enter the first female circular insertion slot;
- the first arc angle is substantially different in value from the second arc angle, allowing at least one of the plurality of first female conductors to be electrically connected to at least one of the plurality of first male conductors entering the first female circular insertion slot so as to assure electrical connection between the female connector and the male connector.
