Abstract

A connector includes a housing, an adapter plate, a flexible transmitter, a conductive tab and a conductive connection tab. The housing is provided with an accommodation cavity. One end of the adapter plate is mounted on an inner wall of the housing, and the other end of the adapter plate extends out of one end of the accommodation cavity. The flexible transmitter is accommodated in the accommodation cavity. One end of the flexible transmitter is connected to the adapter plate. The conductive tab is accommodated in the accommodation cavity. One end of the conductive tab is connected to the other end of the flexible transmitter. The conductive connection tab is accommodated in the accommodation cavity. One end of the conductive connection tab is connected to the adapter plate, the other end of the conductive connection tab is connected to the conductive tab, and the conductive connection tab is deformable.

Claims (15)

1. A connector, comprising:

a housing provided with an accommodation cavity extending through the housing in a length direction of the housing;

an adapter plate for transmitting an electrical signal, wherein one end of the adapter plate is mounted on an inner wall of the housing, and the other end of the adapter plate extends out of one end of the accommodation cavity;

a flexible transmitter accommodated in the accommodation cavity, wherein one end of the flexible transmitter is connected to the adapter plate;

a conductive tab accommodated in the accommodation cavity, wherein one end of the conductive tab is connected to the other end of the flexible transmitter, and the other end of the conductive tab faces the other end of the accommodation cavity; and

a conductive connection tab accommodated in the accommodation cavity, wherein one end of the conductive connection tab is connected to the adapter plate, the other end of the conductive connection tab is connected to the conductive tab, and the conductive connection tab is deformable.

2. The connector of claim 1 , wherein a fixing block is formed on the inner wall of the housing, the one end of the adapter plate passes through the fixing block, and the one end of the flexible transmitter extends into the fixing block and is connected to the adapter plate.

3. The connector of claim 2 , wherein a stop block is sleeved on the one end of the conductive tab, the fixing block and the stop block are disposed at intervals in the length direction of the housing, a first gap is formed between the stop block and the inner wall of the housing, and the other end of the flexible transmitter extends into the stop block and is connected to the conductive tab.

4. The connector of claim 3 , wherein a support block is provided on a surface of the fixing block facing the stop block, and a second gap is formed between a surface of the support block facing the stop block, and the stop block.

5. The connector of claim 4 , wherein a fixing head is formed at one end of the support block facing the fixing block, a mounting groove is provided on the fixing block, and the fixing head is mounted in the mounting groove.

6. The connector of claim 4 , wherein a detent rib extending in the length direction of the housing is formed on a side surface of the support block, one end of the detent rib abuts against the fixing block, and a surface of the detent rib facing away from the support block abuts against the inner wall of the housing.

7. The connector of claim 2 , wherein a stop baffle plate is formed on the housing, a positioning groove is formed on the fixing block, and the stop baffle plate is accommodated in the positioning groove.

8. The connector of claim 7 , wherein a via communicating with the accommodation cavity is formed on an outer surface of the housing, the stop baffle plate is a bending structure, and two ends of the stop baffle plate are connected to a via wall of the via separately.

9. The connector of claim 1 , wherein the flexible transmitter is a flexible circuit board or a cable.

10. The connector of claim 1 , wherein the conductive connection tab comprises a bending section, and two connection sections connected to two ends of the bending section respectively, one of the two connection sections is connected to the adapter plate, and the other of the two connection sections is connected to the conductive tab.
