The disclosure relates to a belt associating with multiple jumper terminals in parallel, particularly to a jumper terminal belt structure.
Modern electronic devices usually use a jumper to adjust connection and disconnection of different electric signals. In other words, a jumper is inserted into an electronic component (such as a pin) of an electronic device (such as a computer mother board, a hard disk drive or an optical disk drive) for switch of different electric signals.
Also, with the popularization of the computer applications and the continuous upgrade of the systems, the jumper terminals are applied more and more frequently. As a result, a jumper terminal belt appears in the market. The belt associates with multiple jumper terminals in parallel to allow users to cut the number of required jumper terminals.
However, junctions between the multiple jumper terminals of the belt are composed of a metal covered by rubber, so a user must cut off the rubber with a scissors first and then use his or her hands to break off the metal to cut off the junctions between the multiple jumper terminals, but a scissors may be blocked by the metal and unable to cut off the rubber. That may cause cutting difficulty or an uneven incision.
In view of this, the inventors have devoted themselves to the above-mentioned related art, researched intensively and cooperated with the application of science to try to solve the above-mentioned problems. Finally, the invention which is reasonable and effective to overcome the above drawbacks is provided.
The disclosure provides a jumper terminal belt structure, which uses that each connecting bridge and each tying portion are separated from each other and arranged at intervals to accomplish the advantages of the jumper terminal belt structure being easily cut and having flat incisions.
In the embodiment of the disclosure, the disclosure provides a jumper terminal belt structure, which includes a metal stamping member and a soft insulative body. The metal stamping member includes multiple jumper terminals and multiple connecting bridges connected between the multiple jumper terminals. The soft insulative body includes multiple insulative seats covering an end of each jumper terminal and multiple tying portion connected between the multiple insulative seats. Each connecting bridge and each tying portion are separated from each other and arranged at intervals.
According to the above, the connecting bridge of the metal stamping member and the tying portion of the soft insulative body are separated from each other and arranged at an interval, when a user uses a scissors to cut the tying portion, the scissors is not blocked by the connecting bridge in the interval to make adjacent two of the insulative seats cut with a flat incision, then the user uses his or her hands to break off the connecting bridge to separate adjacent two of the jumper terminals to obtain the jumper terminals with a required quantity. Therefore, the jumper terminal belt structure has advantages of being easy to be cut and having a flat incision.
The technical contents of this disclosure will become apparent with the detailed description of embodiments accompanied with the illustration of related drawings as follows. It is intended that the embodiments and drawings disclosed herein are to be considered illustrative rather than restrictive.

As shown in
In detail, each jumper terminal 11 has a rear end section 111, a pair of elastic clamping pins 112 and a middle section 113 connected between the rear end section 111 and the pair of elastic clamping pins 112. Each connecting bridge 12 is connected between every adjacent two of the rear end sections 111 to jointly constitute a transverse strip 13.
As shown in
Furthermore, each insulative seat 21 covers each rear end section 111 and each middle section 113 by injection molding. An end of each insulative seat 21, which is away from each pair of elastic clamping pins 112, is extended with a block 211. Each tying portion 22 is connected between every adjacent two of the blocks 211 to jointly constitute a transverse rib 23.
In addition, each rear end section 111 is disposed with a through hole 1111. Each of two lateral sides of each middle section 113 is formed with a notch 1132. Each insulative seat 21 covers each rear end section 111 and each middle section 113 by injection molding, and thus each insulative seat 21 has multiple fillers 212 embedded in each through hole 1111 and each notch 1132 so as to make each insulative seat 21 be firmly connected to and cover an end of each jumper terminal 11.
Moreover, the block 211 may be used to be held by a user. Each block 211 is greater than each tying portion 22 in thickness to make each of an upper side and a lower side of each tying portion 22 form a dent 221 corresponding to each block 211.
As shown in
In addition, the block 211 is greater than the tying portion 22 in thickness to make each of an upper side and a lower side of each tying portion 22 form a dent 221 corresponding to each block 211, so that when a scissors is used to cut the tying portion 22, the scissors may be positioned by abutting against the two dents 221 to make adjacent two of the insulative seats 21 be cut off smoothly.
