Patent Application
20160197446
This application claims priority to Chinese Patent Application No. 201510002419.5 filed on Jan. 5, 2015, the contents of which are incorporated by reference herein.
The subject matter herein generally relates to a connector assembly.
A connector assembly is used for transmitting data between two electronic devices. The electronic devices include different types of connectors to transmit data under different protocols.
Implementations of the present technology will now be described, by way of example only, with reference to the attached figures.
It will be appreciated that for simplicity and clarity of illustration, where appropriate, reference numerals have been repeated among the different figures to indicate corresponding or analogous elements. In addition, numerous specific details are set forth in order to provide a thorough understanding of the embodiments described herein. However, it will be understood by those of ordinary skill in the art that the embodiments described herein can be practiced without these specific details. In other instances, methods, procedures, and components have not been described in detail so as not to obscure the related relevant feature being described. Also, the description is not to be considered as limiting the scope of the embodiments described herein. The drawings are not necessarily to scale and the proportions of certain parts may be exaggerated to better illustrate details and features of the present disclosure.
Several definitions that apply throughout this disclosure will now be presented.
The term “substantially” is defined to be essentially conforming to the particular dimension, shape, or other feature that the term modifies, such that the component need not be exact. For example, “substantially cylindrical” means that the object resembles a cylinder, but can have one or more deviations from a true cylinder. The term “comprising,” when utilized, means “including, but not necessarily limited to”; it specifically indicates open-ended inclusion or membership in the so-described combination, group, series and the like.
The present disclosure is described in relation to a connector assembly.
The first connector 10 includes a first plate 12, a first interface 14, and a connecting portion 16. The first interface 14 is engaged with the first plate 12. The first plate 12 defines two first holes 120. The two first holes 120 are located on the two sides of the first interface 14. The connecting portion 16 includes a first connecting portion 162 and a second connecting portion 164. The second connecting portion 164 extends from the first connecting portion 162 and is substantially perpendicular to the first connecting portion 162. The first connecting portion 162 is engaged with the first interface 14. The second connecting portion 164 can include a plurality of first pins. (not shown)
The second connector 20 includes a second plate 22 and a second interface 24. The second interface 24 is engaged with the second plate 22. The second plate 22 defines two second holes 220. The two second holes 220 are located on the two sides of the second interface 24. The second interface 24 includes a plurality of second pins 240.
Each of the two fixing members 30 includes a plate 32 and a fixing portion 34. The plate 32 defines a plurality of third holes 320. The fixing portion 34 includes a plurality of latching portions 340. In at least one embodiment, the plate 32 can be substantially L-shaped. The plurality of latching portions 340 is elastic. The mounting plate 40 defines a plurality of locking holes 42, a plurality of first fastening holes 44, and a plurality of second fastening holes 16. In at least one embodiment, the mounting plate 40 can be a base board or a motherboard of an electronic device.
The embodiments shown and described above are only examples. Many details are often found in the art such as the other features of a connector assembly. Therefore, many such details are neither shown nor described. Even though numerous characteristics and advantages of the present technology have been set forth in the foregoing description, together with details of the structure and function of the present disclosure, the disclosure is illustrative only, and changes may be made in the details, especially in matters of shape, size, and arrangement of the parts within the principles of the present disclosure, up to and including the full extent established by the broad general meaning of the terms used in the claims. It will therefore be appreciated that the embodiments described above may be modified within the scope of the claims.
