Therefore, the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed below.
[0027] The embodiments of the present application provide a waterproof Fakra connector to address the problem of existing Fakra connectors with a power PIN and poor waterproofing. It should be noted that, in this application, the direction of the plug post relative to the rear cover is defined as front, front end, and front, while the opposite direction is defined as rear, rear end, and rear; the direction of the elastic eyelet relative to the first plug-in portion is defined as up, above, upper side, upper end, top, top, or top, while the opposite direction is defined as down, below, lower side, lower end, bottom, bottom end, or bottom.
[0028] like Figures 1 to 8 As shown in the embodiment of the present application: a waterproof Fakra connector, comprising: a line end connector 1, a board end connector 2,
[0029] Reference Figure 3-Figure 5 The line end connector 1 includes a line end plastic housing 10, a plug post 11 is provided inside the line end plastic housing 10, a first plug cavity 101 and a second plug cavity 102 are provided inside the plug post 11, a first plug portion 103 is provided around the plug post 11, a power female terminal 60 is provided inside the first plug cavity 101, and a connection terminal 70 is provided inside the second plug cavity 102;
[0030] The board-side connector 2 includes a board-side plastic housing 80 and a second plug-in portion 801 disposed within the board-side plastic housing 80. The second plug-in portion 801 includes a power terminal pin 100 and a connection terminal pin 90. When the line-side connector 1 and the board-side connector 2 are mated and connected, the power terminal pin 100 is inserted into the first plug-in cavity 101 and connected to the power female terminal 60, and the connection terminal pin 90 is inserted into the second plug-in cavity 102 and connected to the connection terminal 70.
[0031] Among them, such as Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the end of the plug-in column 11 protrudes from the front end surface of the first plug-in part 103, and a liquid silicone waterproof ring 30 is provided on the side of the plug-in column 11. When the second plug-in part 801 is inserted into the first plug-in part 103, the liquid silicone waterproof ring 30 is located between the two.
[0032] By lengthening the wire end plastic housing 10 (extending the plug post 11 ) and adding a liquid silicone waterproof ring 30 , the lengthened board end plastic housing 80 cooperates with the liquid silicone waterproof ring 30 to achieve a waterproof function at the plugging position.

A pair of locking grooves 6010 are provided on the top and bottom surfaces of the plastic sleeve 601. A pair of outwardly protruding stoppers 6011 are provided behind the locking grooves 6010. A pair of spring hooks 106 are provided inside the first plug-in cavity 101. When the spring hooks 106 extend into the locking grooves 6010, the stoppers 6011 are just located behind the spring hooks 106.
[0034] Reference Figure 8 The side of the plastic sleeve 601 is also provided with a flip cover 6012 for securing the power female terminal 60. Preferably, the flip cover 6012 employs a hinge structure, and a stopper 60120 is provided within the flip cover 6012 to secure the position of the power female terminal 60. The assembly process is as follows: the power female terminal 60 is assembled into the plastic sleeve 601. Once in place, the hinge structure is folded and snapped shut. The snapped-in assembly is then inserted into the wire end plastic housing 10. The plastic sleeve 601 and the wire end plastic housing 10 are secured and prevented from retreating by means of the spring hook 106 and the latching groove 6010. By adding the plastic sleeve 601 structure to the existing conductor assembly, the waterproof function of the wire end connector 1 is further enhanced.
