Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of electronic connectors, and in particular to automotive electronic connectors with strong sealing performance. Background Art

[0002] Automotive connectors are a type of component that electronic engineers often come into contact with. Its function is very simple: to build a bridge of communication between blocked or isolated circuits in a circuit, so that current can flow and the circuit can achieve its intended function. The form and structure of automotive connectors are ever-changing, and they are mainly composed of four basic structural components, namely: contacts, housings, insulators, and accessories.

[0003] In the prior art, the structure of connecting the automotive electronic connector to the automobile is usually connected in a plug-in manner, which results in a gap at the connection point where the automotive electronic connector is connected to the automobile, resulting in a poor sealing effect. In order to solve this problem, the prior art usually provides a rubber gasket at the connection point where the automotive electronic connector is connected to the automobile. However, the provision of the rubber gasket will cause the connection of the automotive electronic connector to the automobile to be unstable, because when the automotive electronic connector is plugged into the automobile, the rubber gasket may block a distance for plugging into the automobile, thereby resulting in poor contact between the automotive electronic connector and the automobile.

[0004] Therefore, a highly sealed automotive electronic connector is needed to solve this problem. Utility Model Content

[0005] In view of the shortcomings of the prior art, the purpose of the present application is to provide an automotive electronic connector with strong sealing performance to solve the technical problem in the prior art that the provision of a rubber gasket will lead to poor contact between the automotive electronic connector and the vehicle.

[0006] The above-mentioned purpose of the present application is achieved through the following technical solutions: an automotive electronic connector with strong sealing performance, including a male socket and a female socket, the female socket is arranged on the automobile, the male socket is arranged on the automotive electronic connector, the male socket is provided with a contact piece, the female socket is provided with an insertion interface, the ends of the male socket and the female socket close to each other are provided with external threads, and the female socket is threadedly connected with a connecting nut.

[0007] By adopting the above technical solution, after the contact piece of the male socket of the automotive electronic connector is plugged into the automobile through the plug interface of the female socket, the connecting nut is then rotated to the connection between the male socket and the female socket, so that the automotive electronic connector is connected to the automobile. Because the connecting nut blocks the gap at the connection between the male socket and the female socket, the sealing of the automotive electronic connector connected to the automobile is completed, and the technical problem that the provision of the rubber gasket in the prior art will cause poor contact between the automotive electronic connector and the automobile is solved, and the purpose of enhancing the sealing of the automotive electronic connector connected to the automobile is achieved.

[0008] Furthermore, a sliding groove is provided at one end of the male socket and the female socket away from the external thread, and a sealing device is slidably connected to the male socket and the female socket.

[0009] By adopting the above technical solution, although the connecting nut blocks the gap at the connection between the male socket and the female socket to complete the sealing of the automotive electronic connector connected to the automobile, due to the setting of the external thread, some gaps are left at the connection between the connecting nut and the external thread, which results in that the sealing of the automotive electronic connector connected to the automobile is not very strong. The setting of the sealing device solves this problem. The sealing device blocks the gap left at the connection between the connecting nut and the external thread to solve this technical problem.

[0010] Furthermore, the sealing device includes a circular plate, a slider, a push rod and a sealing rubber. The slider is slidably connected to the male socket and the female socket, the push rod is fixedly connected to one end of the slider close to the external thread, the circular plate is fixedly connected to one end of the push rod away from the slider, and the sealing rubber is fixedly connected to one side of the circular plate close to the external thread.

[0011] By adopting the above technical solution, the connecting nut is rotated to the connection between the male socket and the female socket, and then the slider is slid to make the circular plate fit on the nut. At this time, the sealing rubber on the side of the circular plate close to the external thread blocks the gap left at the connection between the connecting nut and the external thread. In this way, the technical problem that the connection between the connecting nut and the external thread leaves some gaps due to the setting of the external thread, resulting in the automotive electronic connector being not very tightly sealed when connected to the car is solved, and the purpose of enhancing the sealing of the automotive electronic connector when connected to the car is achieved.

[0012] Furthermore, there are two or more push rods and sliders evenly distributed in a circular array with the center point of the male socket and the female socket as the base point.

[0013] By adopting the above technical solution, one push rod can only push one side of the circular plate to fit completely on the nut, and the other side will tilt up without the support of the push rod, resulting in reduced sealing. This problem can be solved by providing two or more push rods. The two push rods can push both sides of the circular plate to fit completely on the nut, thus solving the technical problem that the other side will tilt up without the support of the push rod, resulting in reduced sealing.

[0014] Furthermore, a connecting threaded hole is provided on the circular plate, the connecting threaded hole opens toward the connecting nut, a fixing threaded hole corresponding to the connecting threaded hole is provided on the connecting nut, and a fixing device is provided on the circular plate to fix the circular plate on the connecting nut.

[0015] By adopting the above technical solution, the circular plate fitted on the connecting nut has made the sealing rubber block the gap left at the connection between the connecting nut and the external thread. However, vibration will be generated during the driving of the car, so it is necessary to reinforce the fit between the circular plate and the connecting nut. The setting of the fixing device solves this problem. After pushing the push rod to make the circular plate fit the connecting nut, the fixing device is used to fix the circular plate on the connecting nut, which solves the technical problem of needing to reinforce the fit between the circular plate and the connecting nut.

[0016] Furthermore, the fixing device includes a fixing screw, and the fixing screw is threadedly connected to the circular plate.

[0017] By adopting the above technical solution, the circular plate is fixed on the connecting nut. After pushing the push rod to make the circular plate fit the connecting nut, the fixing screw is passed through the circular plate through the connecting threaded hole, so that the fixing screw is threadedly connected to the connecting nut through the fixing threaded hole, thereby achieving the purpose of fixing the circular plate on the connecting nut.

[0018] Furthermore, the sealing rubber is made of natural rubber.

[0019] By adopting the above technical solution, the sealing rubber made of natural rubber has a higher elastic modulus and good tensile strength.

[0020] Furthermore, the connecting nut is a nut made of nylon 66.

[0021] By adopting the above technical solution, the nut made of nylon 66 is light, cheap and easier to open threaded holes.

[0022] In summary, the present application includes at least one of the following beneficial technical effects.

[0023] Through the arrangement of the male socket, the female socket and the connecting nut, it is achieved that after the contact piece of the male socket of the automotive electronic connector is plugged into the automobile through the plug interface of the female socket, the connecting nut is rotated to the connection between the male socket and the female socket, so that the automotive electronic connector is connected to the automobile, and because the connecting nut blocks the gap at the connection between the male socket and the female socket, the purpose of sealing the automotive electronic connector connected to the automobile is achieved.

[0024] By setting the sealing device, it is possible to slide the slider in the direction of the connecting nut, so that the push rod pushes the circular baffle to fit the side of the connecting nut. At this time, the sealing rubber on the side of the circular plate close to the external thread blocks the gap left at the connection between the connecting nut and the external thread, thereby enhancing the sealing of the automotive electronic connector when connected to the car.

[0025] Through the arrangement of the circular plate, the connecting nut and the fixing screw, the fixing screw is passed through the circular plate through the connecting threaded hole, so that the fixing screw is threadedly connected to the connecting nut through the fixing threaded hole, thereby preventing the circular plate from detaching from the connecting nut and strengthening the connection between the circular plate and the connecting nut.

[0029] The present application is further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0030] Example, see Figure 1 , Figure 2The invention discloses an automotive electronic connector with strong sealing performance, comprising a male socket 1 and a female socket 2, wherein the female socket 2 is arranged on the automobile, the male socket 1 is arranged on the automotive electronic connector, a contact piece is arranged on the male socket 1, and a plug interface is provided on the female socket 2. An external thread is provided at one end of the male socket 1 and the female socket 2 close to each other, and a connecting nut 3 is threadedly connected to the female socket 2. After the contact piece of the male socket 1 of the automotive electronic connector is plugged into the automobile through the plug interface of the female socket 2, the connecting nut 3 is rotated, and the connecting nut 3 is rotated to the connection between the male socket 1 and the female socket 2, so that the automotive electronic connector is connected to the automobile, and because the connecting nut 3 blocks the gap at the connection between the male socket 1 and the female socket 2, the sealing of the automotive electronic connector connected to the automobile is completed, and the technical problem that the setting of the rubber gasket in the prior art will cause the automotive electronic connector to have poor contact with the automobile is solved, and the purpose of enhancing the sealing performance of the automotive electronic connector connected to the automobile is achieved.

[0031] Although the connecting nut 3 blocks the gap at the connection between the male socket 1 and the female socket 2 to complete the sealing of the automotive electronic connector connected to the car, the setting of the external thread leaves some gaps at the connection between the connecting nut 3 and the external thread, which results in that the sealing of the automotive electronic connector connected to the car is not very strong. In order to solve this technical problem, in this embodiment, a slide groove 4 is provided at one end of the male socket 1 and the female socket 2 away from the external thread, and a sealing device 5 is slidably connected to the male socket 1 and the female socket 2. The sealing device 5 includes a circular plate 50, a slider 51, a push rod 52 and a sealing rubber. The slider 51 is slidably connected to the male socket 1 and the female socket 2. The push rod 52 is fixedly connected to one end of the slider 51 close to the external thread, the circular plate 50 is fixedly connected to the end of the push rod 52 away from the slider 51, and the sealing rubber is fixedly connected to one side of the circular plate 50 close to the external thread. After rotating the connecting nut 3 to the connection between the male socket 1 and the female socket 2, slide the slider 51 to make the circular plate 50 fit on the nut. At this time, the sealing rubber on the side of the circular plate 50 close to the external thread blocks the gap left at the connection between the connecting nut 3 and the external thread. In this way, the technical problem that the connection between the connecting nut 3 and the external thread leaves some gaps due to the setting of the external thread, resulting in the automotive electronic connector being not very tightly sealed when connected to the car is solved.

[0032] One push rod 52 can only push one side of the circular plate 50 to fit completely on the nut, and the other side without the support of the push rod 52 will tilt up, resulting in reduced sealing. In order to solve this technical problem, in this embodiment, the push rods 52 and the sliders 51 are evenly distributed in a circular array with the center point of the male socket 1 and the female socket 2 as the base point. The four push rods 52 can push the four sides of the circular plate 50 to fit completely on the nut without tilting. This solves the technical problem that the other side without the support of the push rod 52 will tilt up, resulting in reduced sealing.

[0033] The circular plate 50 fitted on the connecting nut 3 has made the sealing rubber block the gap left at the connection between the connecting nut 3 and the external thread, but vibration will be generated during the driving of the car, so it is necessary to reinforce the fit between the circular plate 50 and the connecting nut 3. In order to strengthen the connection between the circular plate 50 and the connecting nut 3, in this embodiment, a connecting threaded hole 53 is provided on the circular plate 50, and the opening of the connecting threaded hole 53 faces the connecting nut 3. A fixing threaded hole 30 corresponding to the connecting threaded hole 53 is provided on the connecting nut 3. The circular plate 50 is threadedly connected with a fixing screw 6. After the push rod 52 is pushed to make the circular plate 50 fit the connecting nut 3, the fixing screw 6 is passed through the circular plate 50 through the connecting threaded hole 53, so that the fixing screw 6 is threadedly connected to the connecting nut 3 through the fixing threaded hole 30, thereby achieving the purpose of fixing the circular plate 50 on the connecting nut 3.

[0034] Specific implementation process: first, plug the contact of the male socket 1 of the automotive electronic connector into the car through the plug interface of the female socket 2, then rotate the connecting nut 3, rotate the connecting nut 3 to the connection between the male socket 1 and the female socket 2, and then slide the slider 51 in the direction of the connecting nut 3, so that the push rod 52 pushes the circular baffle to fit the side of the connecting nut 3. At this time, the sealing rubber on the side of the circular plate 50 close to the external thread blocks the gap left at the connection between the connecting nut 3 and the external thread, and then use the fixing screw 6 to pass through the circular plate 50 through the connecting threaded hole 53, so that the fixing screw 6 is threadedly connected to the connecting nut 3 through the fixing threaded hole 30.

[0035] The embodiments of this specific implementation method are all preferred embodiments of the present application, and are not intended to limit the protection scope of the application. Therefore, all equivalent changes made based on the structure, shape, and principle of the present application should be included in the protection scope of the present application.
