(b) Description of the Prior Art

Referring to FIG. 1 and FIG. 2 , a front end of an insulator A 1 of a conventional power connector A, and a rear end of the insulator A 2 are provided with containing chambers A 2 which are installed with a plurality of conductive terminals A 3 . A side end of the insulator A 1 is provided with a clipping plate A 4 which is installed with a screw member A 5 , wherein the screw member A 5 is used to fix the power connector A to the circuit board A 7 via a screw A 8 . However, when the clipping plate A 4 and the screw member A 5 are affixed to the insulator A 1 of power connector A, they are easy to be fallen off, and when the power connector A is connected to a power plug A 6 , it is also easy to cause an ill contact to the power plug A 6 by the screw member A 5 of clipping plate A 4 .

Accordingly, how to eliminate the aforementioned drawbacks is a technical issue which needs to be solved by the inventor.

The present invention is to provide a power connector assembly device, wherein a latching slot of an insulator is provided with a slideway which is corresponding to a track of a fixing side plate having a screw hole and a fixing slot, and the screw hole and the fixing slot of the fixing side plate are also corresponding to a screw part and a fixing part of a screw member, such that the screw member and the fixing side plate are affixed to the insulator by fixing the track of fixing side plate into the slideway, thereby firmly assembling the power connector.

Referring to FIG. 3 , FIG. 4 , and FIG. 5 , the present invention is to provide a power connector assembly device which includes a power connector B, an insulator C, a fixing side plate D, and conductive terminals E.

A front end of the insulator C is formed with a containing chamber C 1 and a containing hole C 2 , a rear end of the insulator C is formed with containing slots C 3 , and a side end of the insulator C is formed with a latching slot C 4 which is latched with the fixing side plate D being provided with a screw member F.

The latching slot C 4 of insulator C is provided with a slideway C 5 which is corresponding to a track D 1 of the fixing side plate D, and the fixing side plate D is also provided with a screw hole D 2 and a fixing slot D 3 which is corresponding to the screw member F, wherein the screw hole D 2 and the fixing slot D 3 of the fixing side plate D are corresponding to a screw part F 1 and a fixing part F 2 of the screw member F. The containing slots C 3 of power connector B further include a first containing slot C 6 , a second containing slot C 7 , a third containing slot C 8 , a fourth containing slot C 9 , and a plurality of related containing slots C 3 for emplacing the conductive terminals E, whereas the conductive terminals E of power connector B further include a first terminal E 1 , a second terminal E 2 , a third terminal E 3 , a clipping terminal E 4 , and a plurality of related terminals E 3 which can be emplaced in the containing slots C 3 .

Accordingly, the fixing side plate D and the screw member F of the power connector B are affixed to the insulator C, by fixing the track D 1 of fixing side plate D into the slideway C 5 of latching slot C 4 of insulator C, so as to firmly assemble the power connector B.

Referring to FIG. 5 , FIG. 6 , FIG. 7 , and FIG. 8 , the front end of insulator C is provided with the containing chamber C 1 and the containing hole C 2 , the rear end of insulator C is provided with the containing slots C 3 , and the side end of insulator C is provided with the latching slot C 4 which is extended to form the slideway C 5 , wherein the fixing side plate D is installed with the screw hole D 2 and the fixing slot D 3 which is corresponding to the screw member, and the side end of fixing side plate D is extended to form the track D 1 .

The screw member F is provided with the screw part F 1 and the fixing part F 2 which are corresponding to the screw hole D 2 and the fixing slot D 3 of the fixing side plate D. When the latching slot C 4 at the side end of insulator C is affixed to the fixing side plate D of power connector B, the insulator C and the fixing side plate D can be assembled together through the slideway C 5 extended from the latching slot C 4 and the track D 1 extended from the fixing side plate D.

The slideway C 5 of latching slot C 4 can be further a projected slideway, a concaved slideway, a projected and concaved slideway, and one or more than one related fixed slideway which is correspondingly assembled with the fixing side plate D. In addition, the track D 1 of fixing side plate D can be further a projected track, a concaved track, a projected and concaved track, and one or more than one related fixed track which is correspondingly assembled with the slideway C 5 .

The containing slots C 3 of power connector B further includes the first containing slot C 6 , the second containing slot C 7 , the third containing slot C 8 , the fourth containing slot C 9 , and the plurality of related containing slots C 3 for emplacing the conductive terminals E; whereas the conductive terminals E of power connector B further includes the first terminal E 1 , the second terminal E 2 , the third terminal E 3 , the clipping terminal E 4 , and the plurality of related conductive terminals E which can be emplaced in the containing slots C 3 . Furthermore, the conductive terminals E further include a projection part E 5 which is protruded from the containing slot C 3 and can be contacted with a power plug G, and a welding part E 6 which is protruded from an exterior of the insulator C and can be provided for a welding. The screw member H 1 is penetrated through the circuit board H and has the power connector B screw-fastened on the circuit board H by the screw part F 1 of the screw member F, so as to effectively conduct electricity to the power plug G.

To further manifest the advancement and practicability of the present invention, the present invention is compared with a conventional device:

Shortcomings of a conventional application

1. The clipping side plate and the screw member, which are assembled with the insulator, are easy to be fallen off. 2. It is easy to cause an ill contact when the power connector is attached to the power plug.

Advantages of the present invention
