Connectors are mainly composed of contacts, insulators, shells, and accessories
1. Contact piece is the core component of a connector, mainly responsible for completing the connection. It is generally composed of a positive contact piece and a negative contact piece to form a contact pair, and the electrical connection is completed through the insertion and closing of the female and male contacts.
2. Insulators, also known as bases or mounting plates, are mainly used to arrange contacts in an orderly manner, fix the spacing between contacts, and ensure insulation between contacts and between contacts and the housing.
3. The main function of the shell is to provide protection, ensuring that the insulation mounting board and pins inside are not damaged by external forces, and providing alignment when the plug and socket are inserted, thereby fixing the electronic connector to the device.
4. Accessories generally have industry standards that can be used universally on the market. They can be divided into two categories: structural attachments and installation attachments, such as snap rings, locating keys, locating pins, guide pins, connecting rings, cable clamps, sealing rings, gaskets, and other structural attachments; Screws, nuts, screws, spring coils, etc. are installation accessories.
Connectors greatly reduce the volume of electronic products, save production costs, improve production efficiency, and facilitate the connection between electronic components.
