Abstract

A plug device, for engaging a first connector with a second connector or disengaging the first connector from the second connector, includes a base, an operation platform, a sliding member, and an operation assembly. The operation platform is secured to the base. The operation platform is used for securing the second connector and support the first connector. The sliding member is used for grasping the first connector. The operation assembly includes a handle. The handle is rotatable relative to the base to slide the sliding member relative to the operation platform, so that the first connector is engaged with the second connector or disengaged from the second connector.

Claims (30)

1. A plug device, for engaging a first connector with a second connector or disengaging the first connector from the second connector, comprising:

a base;

an operation platform secured to the base and configured for securing the second connector and holding the first connector;

a sliding member configured for securing the first connector; and

an handling assembly comprising a handle rotatably mounted to the base and a sliding post fixed to the sliding member and slidably mounted to the base;

wherein the handle is rotatable relative to the base to slide the sliding post; and the sliding post is slidable to slide the sliding member relative to the operation platform, which is configured to engage the first connector with the second connector or disengage the first connector from the second connector.

2. The plug device of claim 1 , wherein the handling assembly further comprises a securing base secured to the base and a rotating piece rotatably mounted to the securing base; the handle is secured to the rotating piece; and the sliding post is rotatably mounted to the rotating piece.

3. The plug device of claim 2 , wherein the handling assembly further comprises a socket secured to the securing base, and the sliding post is slidably received in the socket.

4. The plug device of claim 1 , further comprising a guiding rail, wherein the guiding rail comprises a mounting base, a holding block located on the mounting base, and a limiting block located on the holding block; the sliding member comprises a sliding plate, which defines a sliding slot and comprises two sliding arms on opposite sides of the sliding slot; the two sliding arms abut the holding block; and the limiting block is received in the sliding slot.

5. The plug device of claim 4 , wherein the guiding rail further comprises an extension piece extending from each sliding arm, and the extension piece abuts the operation platform.

6. The plug device of claim 4 , wherein each sliding arm defines a positioning slot communicating with the sliding slot, and the positioning slot is configured for engaging limiting protrusion protruding from the first connector.

7. The plug device of claim 6 , wherein the operation platform defines a receiving slot and two limiting slots extending from opposite edges of the receiving slot; the receiving slot is configured for receiving a circuit board, which is configured for securing the second connector; and each limiting slot is configured for engaging a limiting tab extending from the circuit board.

8. The plug device of claim 7 , wherein an extending direction of each of the limiting slot and the positioning slot is substantially perpendicular to a sliding direction of the sliding member.

9. The plug device of claim 4 , wherein the guiding rail further comprises a positioning block extending from a bottom surface of each sliding arm; a sliding channel is defined between the operation platform and the guiding rail; the positioning block is received in the sliding channel; and the positioning block is slidable in the sliding channel when the sliding member is slid relative to the operation platform.

10. The plug device of claim 4 , further comprising a pressing block, wherein the pressing block comprises a resisting block and a mounting block extending from the resisting block; the mounting block is substantially perpendicularly to the resisting block, the mounting block is secured to the mounting base, and each sliding arm is slidable between the pressing block and the holding block.

11. A plug device, for engaging a first connector with a second connector or disengaging the first connector from the second connector, comprising:

a base;

an operation platform secured to the base and configured for securing the second connector and holding the first connector;

a sliding member configured for securing the first connector; and

an handling assembly comprising a handle rotatably mounted to the base and a sliding post fixed to the sliding member and slidably mounted to the base;

wherein the handle is rotatable relative to the base to slide the sliding member between a first position and a second position; when the sliding member is in the first position, a first angle is defined between the handle and the base, and a first distance is defined between the sliding member and the operation platform; when the sliding member is in the second position, a second angle is defined between the handle and the base, and a second distance is defined between the sliding member and the operation platform; the first angle is greater than the second angle; and the first distance is greater than the second distance.

12. The plug device of claim 11 , wherein the handling assembly further comprises a securing base secured to the base and a rotating piece rotatably mounted to the securing base; the handle is secured to the rotating piece; and the sliding post is rotatably mounted to the rotating piece.

13. The plug device of claim 12 , wherein the handling assembly further comprises a socket secured to the securing base, and the sliding post is slidably received in the socket.

14. The plug device of claim 11 , further comprising a guiding rail, wherein the guiding rail comprises a mounting base, a holding block located on the mounting base, and a limiting block located on the holding block; the sliding member comprises a sliding plate, which defines a sliding slot and comprises two sliding arms on opposite sides of the sliding slot; the two sliding arms abut the holding block; and the limiting block is received in the sliding slot.

15. The plug device of claim 14 , wherein the guiding rail further comprises an extension piece extending from each sliding arm, and the extension piece abuts the operation platform.

16. The plug device of claim 14 , wherein each sliding arm defines a positioning slot communicating with the sliding slot, and the positioning slot is configured for engaging limiting protrusion protruding from the first connector.

17. The plug device of claim 16 , wherein the operation platform defines a receiving slot and two limiting slots extending from opposite edges of the receiving slot, the receiving slot is configured for receiving a circuit board, which is configured for securing the second connector; and each limiting slot is configured for engaging a limiting tab extending from the circuit board.

18. The plug device of claim 17 , wherein an extending direction of each of the limiting slot and the positioning slot is substantially perpendicular to a sliding direction of the sliding member.

19. The plug device of claim 14 , wherein the guiding rail further comprises a positioning block extending from a bottom surface of each sliding arm; a sliding channel is defined between the operation platform and the guiding rail; the positioning block is received in the sliding channel; and the positioning block is slidable in the sliding channel when the sliding member is slid relative to the operation platform.

20. The plug device of claim 14 , further comprising a pressing block, wherein the pressing block comprises a resisting block and a mounting block extending from the resisting block; the mounting block; the mounting block is substantially perpendicularly to the resisting block, the mounting block is secured to the mounting base, and each sliding arm is slidable between the pressing block and the holding block.
