Abstract
A connecting structure comprises a board-side connector and a wire-side connector. The board-side connector comprises a frame pedestal surrounding an accommodating chamber; a metal outer shell covering the exterior of the frame pedestal; a metal inner shell mounted to a mounting hole at a rear end of the accommodating chamber; and a transmission main body mounted to an interior of the metal inner shell. The wire-side connector comprises a transmission main body having multiple terminals having multiple first ends soldered to discrete core wires of a wire cable and multiple second ends configured to contact terminals of the board-side connector; a clamp cage at a rear side of the transmission main body; and a plastic case surrounding an accommodating chamber, wherein the accommodating chamber receives second ends of the terminals.
Claims26
A board-side connector for plugging with a wire-side connector, comprising:
- a frame pedestal surrounding an accommodating chamber, wherein an opening is at a front end of the accommodating chamber and a mounting hole is at a rear end of the accommodating chamber, wherein the accommodating chamber is configured for accommodating the wire-side connector from the opening;
- a metal outer shell covering the exterior of the frame pedestal;
- a metal inner shell mounted to the mounting hole, wherein the metal inner shell protrudes into the accommodating chamber, wherein the metal inner shell comprises an elastic contacting arm contacting the metal outer shell;
- and
- a transmission main body mounted to an interior of the metal inner shell, wherein the transmission main body has a terminal having a first portion extending in the metal inner shell and accommodating chamber for contacting a terminal of the wire-side connector and a second portion extending outside the metal inner shell and accommodating chamber for connection to a circuit board.
A wire-side connector mounted to an end of a cable wire and configured for plugging with a board-side connector, wherein the cable wire has multiple discrete core wires, comprising:
- a transmission main body having multiple terminals having multiple first ends soldered to the discrete core wires and multiple second ends configured to contact terminals of the board-side connector;
- a clamp cage at a rear side of the transmission main body, wherein multiple clamp slots at the clamp cage clamp the discrete core wires;
- and
- a plastic case surrounding an accommodating chamber, wherein the accommodating chamber receives the second ends of the terminals, wherein the plastic case comprises a thin sheet with two supporting points at two opposite ends of the thin sheet, wherein a gap is under the thin sheet and between the supporting points, and a first buckle at a top surface of the thin sheet, wherein the first buckle is configured to be received in a positioning hole at the board-side connector.
A board-side connector for plugging with a wire-side connector, comprising:
- a frame pedestal surrounding an accommodating chamber, wherein an opening is at a front end of the accommodating chamber and a mounting hole is at a rear end of the accommodating chamber, wherein the accommodating chamber is configured for accommodating the wire-side connector from the opening;
- a metal outer shell covering the exterior of the frame pedestal;
- a metal inner shell mounted to the mounting hole, wherein the metal inner shell protrudes into the accommodating chamber, wherein the metal inner shell comprises a first welding foot configured to be bonded with a circuit board;
- and
- a transmission main body mounted to an interior of the metal inner shell, wherein the transmission main body has a terminal having a first portion extending in the metal inner shell and accommodating chamber for contacting a terminal of the wire-side connector and a second portion extending outside the metal inner shell and accommodating chamber for connection to the circuit board.
