What is the purpose of an automobile connector?

Automobile connectors have many uses and many structural components. What is the technical trend of automobile connectors? What is the purpose of the customer buying the automobile connector? This article will take you to understand these issues.


Four basic structural components of automobile connector

Four basic structural components of automotive connectors

First, the contact is the core part of the automobile connector to complete the electrical connection function. Generally, a contact pair is composed of a male contact piece and a female contact piece, and the electrical connection is completed by the insertion of the female and male contact pieces.

The automobile connector is a rigid part, and its shape is cylindrical (round pin), square cylinder (square pin) or flat (insert piece). The male contact is generally made of brass or phosphor bronze. The female contact piece, namely the socket, is the key part of the contact pair. It relies on the elastic structure to be elastically deformed when it is inserted into the pin to generate elastic force to form close contact with the male contact piece to complete the connection. There are many types of jack structures, including cylindrical (split, necking), tuning fork, cantilever type (longitudinal slot), folding type (longitudinal slot, 9-shaped), box-shaped (square jack) And the hyperboloid wire spring jack and so on.

Second, the shell, also called the shell (shell), is the outer cover of the automobile connector. It provides mechanical protection for the built-in insulation mounting plate and pins, and provides the alignment of the plug and socket when mating, and then fixes the connector To the device.

Third, the insulator, the insulator is also often called the base or the insert of the automobile connector. Its function is to arrange the contacts according to the required position and spacing, and to ensure that the contacts and the contacts Insulation performance between the shell and the shell. Good insulation resistance, withstand voltage performance and easy processing are the basic requirements for selecting insulating materials to be processed into insulators.

Fourth, accessories, accessories are divided into structural accessories and installation accessories. Structural accessories such as clamp rings, positioning keys, positioning pins, guide pins, connecting rings, cable clamps, sealing rings, gaskets, etc. Install accessories such as screws, nuts, screws, spring rings, etc. Most of the accessories have standard parts and common parts.

It is these four basic structural components that enable automotive connectors to act as bridges and operate stably.

Automobile connector technology trends

The "miniaturization", "high-speed mobility" and intelligence of connector products are the future development trends. The future technological innovation of the industry will mainly focus on the following directions:

Miniaturized development


Automobile connector miniaturization development technology

This technology is mainly developed for the trend of automobile connector miniaturization and can be applied to micro-miniature automobile connectors below 0.3mm. It is a new product of the MINI USB series. It can be used for multi-contact expansion card slot connectors, which can meet and exceed the strict requirements of multi-contact surface adhesion technology for coplanar contact points, with high accuracy and low cost.

Wireless transmission

High-frequency and high-speed wireless transmission automobile connector technology

This technology is mainly aimed at a variety of wireless device communication applications and has a wide range of applications.
