What are the advantages of energy storage connectors


1. Improve production technology

Energy storage connectors simplify the assembly process of electronic products. It also simplifies the mass production process;


2.Easy to repair

If an electronic component fails, the faulty component can be quickly replaced when installing the energy storage connector;

3.Easy to upgrade

As technology advances, components can be updated when installing energy storage connectors, replacing old ones with new and better ones;


4. Improve design flexibility

The use of energy storage battery connectors provides engineers with greater flexibility when designing and integrating new products and building systems from components;


Interface mode between energy storage battery connector circuit boards

The interface methods between energy storage connector circuit boards are different, and their types are also different. Each type has its own characteristics. The following is a brief detailed introduction to these aspects:


1. Pin header/pin header. Female and pin headers are relatively cheap, cost-effective and common interface methods. Application areas: low-end, large-sized smart products, development boards, debugging boards, etc.;

Advantages: Cheap, cost-effective, convenient, solid hard connection, strong over-current capability, conducive to wire bonding and testing;

Disadvantages: large size, difficult to bend, large spacing, hundreds of pins cannot be connected (too big).


2. Some board-to-board connectors are used for compact products and are denser than pin headers. Application areas: Widely used, basic intelligent hardware products are basically in use.

Advantages: small size, large number of needles, 1 cm long can do 40 stitches (the same specification can only do 20 stitches).

Disadvantages: The overall design must be fixed and is expensive and cannot be plugged in and out frequently.


3. The thickened board-to-board connector can be combined, disassembled and inserted on the pin header. Application scenarios: detection boards, development boards, large fixed equipment (such as main chassis wiring). Advantages: It is cheap and common to use with pins, and it is very convenient to connect and measure. Disadvantages: Not easy to repair, large in size, not suitable for mass production scenarios.


4.FPC connector plug-in/ZIF connector. Many smart products and equipment need to pull signals out from the motherboard, and FPC is a good choice due to its small size, flexibility, and various shapes. Application scenarios: power circuit bending, connection between motherboard and external equipment, connection between auxiliary board and motherboard, tight product space. Advantages: Small and cheap.


Energy storage battery connector plug connection form


Energy storage connector plug


1. Energy storage battery connector plug thread connection method

This is a connection form often used in some connector plugs that have larger-sized contacts and operate in strong vibration environments. This type of connection can be installed with a fuse or nut to prevent loosening after the connection is completed. This type of connection is reliable, but the connection and removal speed is slow.


2. Energy storage connector plug bayonet connection method

This is a reliable and fast form of connection and disconnection. Most card 121 connection style electrical connectors have a visual display of correct connection and locking that can be viewed through a small hole in the side of the electrical connector's connecting nut.

3. Energy storage connector plug plug connection method

This is a versatile form of connection. When the plug and socket of an electrical connector are connected and disconnected, their moving direction is usually a reciprocating linear motion. There is no need to twist or rotate, and only a small working space is required to complete the connection and disconnection. Common plug-in connections have two structures: ball or pin. Since this connection type does not have a mechanical labor-saving mechanism, once misplugged, the mechanical resistance increases significantly and can be detected in time.


4 Energy storage connector plug cabinet connection method

This is an electrical connector used on some equipment that needs to be blindly connected close to the frame. It can make the electrical equipment lighter and smaller, easier to maintain and more reliable. This form of connection makes it impossible for the operator to feel the connection. A precise positioning device must be designed to avoid forcibly connecting mis-inserted connector plugs together, making mis-insertion impossible. Connector plugs usually use floating or elastic contact design structures to ensure their correct connection.

Energy storage dedicated connector


1. Energy storage battery connectors have the characteristics of high temperature resistance, voltage resistance, chemical corrosion resistance and high purity.


2. It has the characteristics of high reliability, precise positioning, low noise and vibration, strong impact resistance, easy installation and high reliability, making it widely used in various types of power systems with higher requirements.


3. Features include fine workmanship, high strength, stable quality, good protection effect, good ventilation, high temperature resistance, safety and reliability, and voltage resistance, which can greatly shorten the replacement and fixation time and are easy to disassemble.


Brief description of energy storage connector manufacturing process

Many people feel that there are too many types of energy storage connectors and the manufacturing processes should be different. In fact, the manufacturing process of energy storage connectors is basically the same, and can be divided into four manufacturing processes: stamping, electroplating, injection molding, and assembly.


1. Stamping

Stamping uses a large-scale high-speed stamping machine to punch the electronic energy storage connector (pin) from a thin metal strip. One end of the large roll of metal strip is fed into the front end of the stamping machine, and the other end passes through the hydraulic workbench of the stamping machine and is wound into the take-up wheel. The metal strip is pulled out by the take-up wheel and rolled up to punch out the finished terminal.


2.Electroplating

After the energy storage connector pins are stamped, they should be sent to the plating stage. In the electroplating stage, the electronic contact surface of the energy storage connector will be plated with various metal platings, such as nickel plating, tin plating, and semi-gold plating, to prevent oxidation and enhance conductivity. During the process of feeding the stamped pins into the plating equipment, the pins can also become twisted, broken or deformed. These quality defects are easily detected by the above-mentioned techniques.


3.Injection molding

Injection molding means that the plastic box seat of the electronic energy storage connector is formed by injecting molten plastic into the metal tire film and then rapidly cooling it.

Also pay attention to detecting "short shots" when the molten plastic does not completely fill the film. This is a typical defect that needs to be detected during the injection molding stage. Other defects include full or partial blockage of receptacles (these receptacles must be kept clean and unobstructed in order to receive the pins correctly during final assembly).


4. Assembly

The final stage of electronic energy storage connector manufacturing is finished product assembly. There are two ways to connect and assemble electroplated pins and injection molded box seats: the first is to insert them individually, that is, insert one pin at a time;


The second type is a combination combination plug, which refers to connecting multiple pins to the box socket at the same time. No matter which connection method is used for assembly, make sure that all pins cannot be missing and must be positioned correctly.
