Underwater electromagnetic separation electric connector

Abstract

An underwater electromagnetic separation electric connector contains two parts, namely a plug and a socket. The socket comprises a socket limit steel ball (1), an unlocking sleeve (2) and a socket body (3). The plug comprises a plug body (4), an electric signal receiving end (5), a limit collar (6), a bumping sleeve (7), a plug limit steel ball (8), a spring (9), a reed set (10), a movable electromagnet (11), a fixed electromagnet (12) and a tail cover (13). By electrifying the electromagnet, magnetism is generated and motion in opposite directions happens. Thus, the plug is driven for mechanical movement on equipment and separation of the plug and the socket is realized. Therefore, separation can be realized only by externally inputting an electric signal without design of a motor. The electric connector provided by the invention has an ingeniously-designed structure. By the adoption of the electric connector, the whole occupying space of separation units of the equipment can be minimized.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of electric connection, and particularly relates to an electric connector used for underwater equipment, which plays the role of circuit connection and transmission of electric signals, and can realize underwater sealing and underwater electromagnetic separation. Background technique [0002] Separation electrical connectors belong to a relatively special type of electrical connectors. The separation methods of separation electrical connectors can generally be divided into mechanical separation and electromagnetic separation. The application fields of separate electrical connectors are also relatively special, mainly used in aerospace, weapons and ships and other fields. Its function is mainly to automatically separate the plug and socket when needed, so as to achieve the purpose of disconnecting a certain signal path in the device. The electrical connectors used in different occasions have different separa...

Problems solved by technology

[0003] In the above structure, the external axial force applied to the pull rod needs to be provided by the motor, which requires sufficient space in the device to design and place the motor, which undoubtedly increases the space occupancy rate of the device and is not conducive to reducing space

In addition, there is an old way to disconnect the underwater equipment path, which is to forcibly cut the cable, that is, the path where the electrical connector is located is first cut off, and then the cable at the outlet of the plug is cut off with the help of a cutting tool, and finally the electrical connection is realized. The forced separation of the device is not conducive to equipment maintenance and reduces the efficiency of equipment use.
