Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of electrical connection structure technology, and more particularly to a plug-in assembly and electronic device. Background Technology

[0002] Electronic devices such as mobile phones, tablets, computers, and smartwatches typically have one or more of the following: charging jacks, headphone jacks, and data transmission jacks. These jacks enable the transmission of power, signals, and data when an external plug is connected.

[0003] Example, Figure 1 For an electronic device in the prior art, see [link to previous document]. Figure 1 The electronic device includes an electronic device body 02 and a plug 01. The electronic device body 02 includes a housing 021 and a socket 022 disposed within the housing 021. The housing 021 has a through hole 0211. The socket 022 has a socket hole 0221 opposite to the through hole 0211. The plug 01 includes a support member 011 and a plug 012 disposed on the support member 011. The support member 011 is supported outside the housing 021 of the electronic device body 02. The end of the plug 012 away from the support member 011 passes through the through hole 0211 and is inserted into the socket hole 0221 to realize the transmission of power, signal or data.

[0004] exist Figure 1 In the illustrated electronic device, to reduce the difficulty of connecting the main body 02 of the electronic device to the plug 01, the size of the through hole 0211 is usually designed to be much larger than the cross-sectional size of the ferrule 012. This facilitates the alignment of the ferrule 012 with the through hole 0211, allowing the ferrule 012 to pass through the through hole 0211 and be inserted into the socket 0221, thereby reducing the difficulty of connecting the main body 02 of the electronic device to the plug 01. Meanwhile, the socket 022 is located inside the housing 021 of the main body 02 of the electronic device. To meet the miniaturization design requirements of the main body 02 of the electronic device, the size of the socket 022 along the length of the socket 0221 is usually made smaller. Thus, after the plug 01 is inserted into the main body 02 of the electronic device, there is a large gap between the side wall of the core 012 and the inner wall of the through hole 0211, and the length of the part of the core 012 inserted into the socket 0221 is relatively short. As a result, the core 012 forms a cantilever beam structure with one end fixed. The stability of the cantilever beam structure is poor. Under the action of external force, it will sway radially along the through hole 0211, thereby affecting the insertion stability between the main body 02 of the electronic device and the plug 01, and thus affecting the user experience of the electronic device. Summary of the Invention

[0005] Embodiments of this application provide a plug-in assembly and an electronic device for solving the problem of how to improve the plug-in stability between a plug and a socket in an electronic device.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the embodiments of this application adopt the following technical solutions:

[0007] In a first aspect, embodiments of this application provide a plug-in assembly, which includes a plug and a socket. The plug includes a support member and a core fixed to the support member. The core includes a plug section and a transition section. The plug section is used to plug into a socket hole in the socket. The side wall of the transition section is provided with a first protrusion.

[0008] Compared with the prior art, when the plug-in assembly provided in this application is applied to an electronic device, the socket of the plug-in assembly is disposed inside the housing of the electronic device. The housing of the electronic device has a through hole, which is opposite to the socket hole. The plug section of the plug-in assembly is inserted into the socket hole, and the transition section of the plug-in assembly passes through the through hole. A first protrusion is located in the gap between the inner wall of the through hole and the transition section. In this way, the first protrusion can fill the gap between the transition section and the inner wall of the through hole to a certain extent, thereby reducing the amplitude of radial wobbling of the plug along the through hole under external force. This can improve the plug-in stability between the plug and the socket in the electronic device to a certain extent, thereby improving the user experience of the electronic device.

[0009] Optionally, the first boss is a rigid boss. In this way, the first boss cannot be compressed, which can effectively reduce the radial wobble of the plug along the through hole and improve the connection stability between the plug and the socket in the electronic device.

[0010] Optionally, the first boss is an elastic boss, which can protect the ferrule and reduce the wear of the ferrule during frequent insertion and removal.

[0011] Optionally, the plug includes a plug housing, and the first protrusion is integrally formed with the plug housing. In this way, there is no need to make the first protrusion separately, which can reduce the manufacturing difficulty of the plug.

[0012] Optionally, the height of the first boss is 0.02 to 0.25 mm. In this way, the first boss can fill the gap between the transition section and the through hole, thereby reducing the radial wobbling of the plug along the through hole and improving the connection stability between the plug and the socket in the electronic device.

[0013] Optionally, the plug has a receiving hole for accommodating the socket's tongue. The inner wall of the receiving hole has a second protrusion. When the plug is inserted into the socket's hole, the second protrusion contacts the tongue. In this way, the second protrusion fills the gap between the inner wall of the receiving hole and the tongue, increasing the insertion strength between the plug and socket, thereby improving the insertion stability between them.

[0014] Optionally, the inner wall of the receiving hole is also provided with a third protrusion. When the plug section is inserted into the socket hole, the third protrusion contacts the tongue. In this way, the third protrusion can fill the gap between the inner wall of the receiving hole and the tongue, improve the insertion strength between the plug and the socket, and thus improve the insertion stability between the plug and the socket.

[0015] Optionally, the second boss is located at the end of the receiving hole near the support, and the third boss is located at the end of the receiving hole away from the support. In this way, the second and third bosses can respectively fill the gap between the inner wall of the receiving hole and the prong, effectively preventing the prong from wobbling within the receiving hole, improving the insertion strength and stability between the plug and socket, and avoiding the need for bosses on the entire inner wall of the receiving hole, thereby reducing the weight and material cost of the plug.

[0016] Optionally, the plug is a USB Type-C plug. The USB Type-C plug can be inserted into the USB Type-C socket regardless of its orientation, making the connection process convenient.

[0017] Optionally, the height of the second boss is 0.025–0.1 mm. This allows the second boss to fill the gap between the receiving hole and the tongue, thereby improving the connection strength between the plug and the socket.

[0018] Optionally, the height of the third boss is 0 to 0.05 mm. In this way, the third boss can fill the gap between the receiving hole and the tongue, thereby improving the mating strength between the plug and the socket.

[0019] Optionally, the plug includes an inner core, a receiving hole is provided on the inner core, and the second boss is integrally formed with the inner core; the third boss is integrally formed with the inner core. In this way, there is no need to manufacture the second and third bosses separately, thereby reducing the manufacturing difficulty of the plug.

[0020] Optionally, the end face of the first boss away from the support member is formed with a guide bevel or a guide arc. This facilitates the insertion of the first boss into the through hole.

[0021] Optionally, the end face of the second boss away from the support member is formed with a guide bevel or a guide arc, and the end face of the third boss away from the support member is also formed with a guide bevel or a guide arc. This facilitates the insertion of the tongue into the receiving hole.

[0022] Secondly, embodiments of this application provide a plug-in assembly, which includes a plug and a socket. The socket includes a socket housing and a socket hole formed in the socket housing. The socket hole is used to mate with the plug. The inner wall of the socket hole is provided with a fourth protrusion. When the plug is plugged into the socket hole of the socket, the fourth protrusion contacts the plug.

[0023] Compared with the prior art, when the plug-in assembly provided in this application is applied to an electronic device, the socket of the plug-in assembly is disposed inside the housing of the electronic device. The housing of the electronic device has a through hole, which is opposite to the socket hole. In the plug-in assembly, the plug is inserted into the socket hole and passes through the through hole, and the fourth protrusion is located in the gap between the inner wall of the socket hole and the plug. In this way, the fourth protrusion can fill the gap between the inner wall of the socket hole and the plug to a certain extent, improve the plug-in strength between the plug and the socket, thereby reducing the amplitude of the plug's radial wobbling along the through hole under external force and improving the user experience of the electronic device.

[0024] Optionally, the fourth boss is a rigid boss, so that the fourth boss cannot be compressed, which can effectively improve the insertion strength between the plug and the socket, reduce the amplitude of the plug's radial wobbling along the through hole, and improve the insertion stability between the plug and the socket in the electronic device.

[0025] Optionally, the fourth boss is an elastic boss, which can protect the inner wall of the socket and reduce the wear of the socket during frequent plugging and unplugging of the plug.

[0026] Optionally, the fourth protrusion is integrally molded with the socket housing. This eliminates the need to fabricate the fourth protrusion separately, reducing the manufacturing complexity of the socket.

[0027] Optionally, the height of the fourth boss is 0.02 to 0.08 mm. In this way, the fourth boss can fill the gap between the socket and the plug, thereby improving the insertion strength between the plug and the socket and reducing the radial wobble of the plug along the through hole.

[0028] Optionally, the socket is provided with a tongue for mating with the receiving hole of the plug. The side wall of the tongue is also provided with a fifth protrusion, which contacts the plug when the plug is inserted into the socket. In this way, the fifth protrusion can fill the gap between the inner wall of the receiving hole and the tongue, which can further improve the insertion strength between the plug and the socket and reduce the radial wobble of the plug along the through hole.

[0029] Optionally, the side wall of the plug tongue is also provided with a sixth protrusion, which contacts the plug when the plug is inserted into the socket hole. In this way, the sixth protrusion can fill the gap between the inner wall of the receiving hole and the plug tongue, which can further improve the insertion strength between the plug and the socket and reduce the radial wobbling of the plug along the through hole.

[0030] Optionally, the tongue includes a tip and a base, with a fifth protrusion positioned near the tip and a sixth protrusion positioned near the base. This allows the fifth and sixth protrusions to fill the gap between the inner wall of the receiving hole and the tongue, effectively preventing the tongue from wobbling within the receiving hole, improving the connection strength and stability between the plug and socket, and avoiding the need for protrusions on the entire side wall of the tongue, thus reducing the weight and material cost of the socket.

[0031] Optionally, the socket is a USB Type-C socket. The USB Type-C plug can be inserted into the socket from either side, making the connection process convenient.

[0032] Optionally, the height of the fifth boss is 0.025–0.1 mm. The fifth boss can fill the gap between the receiving hole and the tongue, thereby improving the mating strength between the plug and the socket.

[0033] Optionally, the height of the sixth boss is 0 to 0.05 mm. In this way, the sixth boss can fill the gap between the receiving hole and the tongue, thereby improving the mating strength between the plug and the socket.

[0034] Optionally, the fifth protrusion is integrally formed with the tongue; the sixth protrusion is also integrally formed with the tongue. This eliminates the need to manufacture the fifth and sixth protrusions separately, reducing the manufacturing difficulty of the socket.

[0035] Optionally, the end face of the fourth protrusion near the opening of the socket is formed into a guide bevel or a guide arc. This facilitates the insertion of the plug into the socket.

[0036] Optionally, the end face of the fifth protrusion near the tip of the tongue forms a guide bevel or a guide arc, and the end face of the sixth protrusion near the tip of the tongue forms a guide bevel or a guide arc. This facilitates the insertion of the tongue into the receiving hole of the plug.

The socket of the plug-in component is disposed inside the housing, and the housing is provided with a through hole. The through hole is disposed opposite to the socket hole, and the plug of the plug-in component is inserted into the socket hole and passes through the through hole.

[0051] The technical solutions in the embodiments of this application will now be described with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0052] In the description of this application, it should be understood that the terms "center", "upper", "lower", "front", "rear", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "top", "bottom", "inner", "outer", etc., indicate the orientation or positional relationship based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings. They are only for the convenience of describing this application and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this application.

[0053] Firstly, such as Figure 2 As shown, this application embodiment provides a plug-in assembly 1, which includes a plug 11 and a socket 12. See also... Figure 3 and Figure 4 The plug 11 includes a support member 111 and a plug core 112 fixed to the support member 111. The plug core 112 includes a plug section a and a transition section b. The plug section a is used to plug into the socket hole of the socket. The side wall of the transition section b is provided with a first boss 113.

[0054] Compared with the prior art, when the plug-in component 1 provided in this application is applied to an electronic device, such as Figure 6 As shown, the socket 12 of the plug assembly 1 is disposed inside the housing 3 of the electronic device. The housing 3 of the electronic device has a through hole 4, which is disposed opposite to the socket 121 of the socket 12. The plug section a of the plug 11 in the plug assembly 1 is inserted into the socket 121 of the socket 12, and the transition section b of the plug 11 in the plug assembly 1 passes through the through hole 4. The first protrusion 113 is located in the gap between the inner wall of the through hole 4 and the transition section b. In this way, the first protrusion 113 can fill the gap between the transition section b and the inner wall of the through hole 4 to a certain extent, thereby reducing the amplitude of the radial wobbling of the plug 11 along the through hole 4 under the action of external force. This can improve the plug-in stability between the plug 11 and the socket 12 in the electronic device to a certain extent, thereby improving the user experience of the electronic device.

[0055] In some embodiments, such as Figure 3 As shown, the first boss 113 is a rigid boss. In this way, the first boss 113 cannot be compressed, which can effectively reduce the radial sway of the plug 11 along the through hole 4 and improve the connection stability between the plug 11 and the socket 12 in the electronic device.

[0056] In some embodiments, such as Figure 3 As shown, the first boss 113 is an elastic boss. In this way, the first boss 113 can protect the ferrule 112 and reduce the wear of the ferrule 112 during frequent insertion and removal.

[0057] The first boss 113 and the transition segment b can be integrally formed. Alternatively, the first boss 113 and the transition segment b can be separate. The first boss 113 can be sleeved onto the transition segment b; it is understood that the first boss can also be combined with the transition segment b. The embodiments of this application do not limit the combination method of the first boss 113 and the transition segment b.

[0058] In some embodiments, such as Figure 4 As shown, the plug 112 includes a plug housing 1121, and the first boss 113 is integrally formed with the plug housing 1121. In this way, there is no need to make the first boss 113 separately, which can reduce the manufacturing difficulty of the plug 11.

[0059] In some embodiments, such as Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the height of the first boss 113 is 0.02–0.25 mm, thus, as Figure 6 As shown, the first boss 113 can fill the gap between the transition section b and the through hole 4, thereby reducing the radial wobbling amplitude of the plug 11 along the through hole 4, so as to improve the insertion stability between the plug 11 and the socket 12 in the electronic device.

[0060] In some embodiments, such as Figure 4 As shown, the insert 112 is provided with a receiving hole 114, such as Figure 6 As shown, the receiving hole 114 can be used to receive the prong 122 of the socket 12, such as Figure 4 As shown, the inner wall of the receiving hole 114 is provided with a second protrusion 115. When the plug segment a is inserted into the socket 121 of the socket 12, the second protrusion 115 contacts the tongue 122. In this way, the second protrusion 115 can fill the gap between the inner wall of the receiving hole 114 and the tongue 122, improve the insertion strength between the plug 11 and the socket 12, and thus improve the insertion stability between the plug 11 and the socket 12 in the electronic device.

[0061] In some embodiments, such as Figure 4 As shown, the second boss 115 can be either a rigid boss or a flexible boss; no specific limitation is made here. When the second boss 115 is a rigid boss, it cannot be compressed, effectively improving the insertion strength between the plug 11 and the socket 12. When the second boss 115 is a flexible boss, it can protect the inner wall of the receiving hole 114, reducing the wear on the inner wall of the receiving hole 114 during frequent plugging and unplugging of the plug 11.

[0062] In some embodiments, such as Figure 4 As shown, the inner wall of the receiving hole 114 is also provided with a third protrusion 116, such as... Figure 6As shown, when the plug segment a is inserted into the socket 121 of the socket 12, the third protrusion 116 contacts the tongue 122. In this way, the third protrusion 116 can fill the gap between the inner wall of the receiving hole 114 and the tongue 122, thereby improving the insertion strength between the plug 11 and the socket 12 and thus improving the insertion stability between the plug 11 and the socket 12.

[0063] In some embodiments, it should be noted that terminals (not shown in the figure) may also be provided on the inner wall of the receiving hole 114, such as... Figure 5 As shown, the second boss 115 and the third boss 116 are provided with first clearance grooves 117 corresponding to the positions of the terminals. The terminals on the side wall of the tongue 122 of the socket 12 can slide into the first clearance grooves 117 and make electrical contact with the terminals in the receiving hole 114. There can be one or more first clearance grooves 117. The first clearance grooves 117 can be continuous or discontinuous.

[0064] In some embodiments, such as Figure 4 As shown, the third boss 116 can be either a rigid boss or a flexible boss; no specific limitation is made here. When the third boss 116 is a rigid boss, it cannot be compressed, effectively improving the insertion strength between the plug 11 and the socket 12. When the third boss 116 is a flexible boss, it can protect the inner wall of the receiving hole 114, reducing the wear on the inner wall of the receiving hole 114 during frequent plugging and unplugging of the plug 11.

[0065] In some embodiments, such as Figure 4 As shown, the second boss 115 is located at the end of the receiving hole 114 near the support member 111, and the third boss 116 is located at the end of the receiving hole 114 away from the support member 111. Thus, as... Figure 6 As shown, the second boss 115 and the third boss 116 can respectively fill the two ends of the gap between the inner wall of the receiving hole 114 and the tongue 122, effectively preventing the tongue 122 from shaking in the receiving hole 114, improving the insertion strength and stability between the plug 11 and the socket 12, and avoiding the need to set bosses on the entire inner wall of the receiving hole 114, thereby reducing the weight and material cost of the plug 11.

[0066] In the above embodiments, it should be noted that the inner wall of the receiving hole 114 may also be provided with more bosses, which are located between the second boss 115 and the third boss 116 to fill the middle of the gap between the inner wall of the receiving hole 114 and the tongue 122.

[0067] Optional, such as Figure 3As shown, plug 11 can be a USB Type-C plug. USB Type-C plugs can be inserted into USB Type-C sockets regardless of their orientation, making connection convenient.

[0068] In some embodiments, such as Figure 4 As shown, the height of the second boss 115 can be 0.025–0.1 mm. Thus, as… Figure 6 As shown, the second boss 115 can fill the gap between the receiving hole 114 and the tongue 122, thereby improving the insertion strength between the plug 11 and the socket 12.

[0069] In some embodiments, such as Figure 4 As shown, the height of the third boss 116 can be 0–0.05 mm. Thus, as… Figure 6 As shown, the third boss 116 can fill the gap between the receiving hole 114 and the tongue 122, thereby improving the insertion strength between the plug 11 and the socket 12.

[0070] In some embodiments, such as Figure 4 As shown, the plug 112 includes an inner core 1122, a receiving hole 114 is provided on the inner core 1122, a second boss 115 is integrally formed with the inner core 1122, and a third boss 116 is integrally formed with the inner core 1122. In this way, it is not necessary to manufacture the second boss 115 and the third boss 116 separately, thereby reducing the manufacturing difficulty of the plug 11.

[0071] Optional, such as Figure 4 As shown, the end face of the first boss 113 away from the support member 111 forms a guide slope or guide arc surface. This facilitates the insertion of the first boss 113 into the through hole.

[0072] Optional, such as Figure 4 As shown, the end face of the second boss 115 away from the support member 111 forms a guide slope or a guide arc surface, and the end face of the third boss 116 away from the support member 111 forms a guide slope or a guide arc surface. This facilitates the insertion of the tongue 122 into the receiving hole 114.

[0073] Secondly, such as Figure 7 As shown, an embodiment of this application provides a plug-in assembly 2, which includes a plug 21 and a socket 22. See also... Figure 8 As shown, the socket 22 includes a socket housing 221 and a socket hole 222 formed in the socket housing 221. The socket hole 222 is used to mate with the plug 21. The inner wall of the socket hole 222 is provided with a fourth protrusion 224. When the plug 21 is inserted into the socket hole 222 of the socket 22, the fourth protrusion 224 contacts the plug 21.

[0074] Compared with the prior art, when the plug-in component 2 provided in the embodiments of this application is applied to an electronic device, such as Figure 9 As shown, the socket 22 of the plug-in assembly 2 is disposed inside the housing 3 of the electronic device. The housing 3 of the electronic device has a through hole 4, which is disposed opposite to the socket 222 of the socket 22. The plug 21 of the plug-in assembly 2 is inserted into the socket 222 of the socket 22 and passes through the through hole 4. The fourth protrusion 224 is located in the gap between the inner wall of the socket 222 and the plug 21. In this way, the fourth protrusion 224 can fill the gap between the inner wall of the socket 222 and the plug 21 to a certain extent, improve the insertion strength between the plug 21 and the socket 22, thereby reducing the amplitude of the plug 21's radial wobbling along the through hole 4 under the action of external force, and improving the user experience of the electronic device.

[0075] In some embodiments, such as Figure 8 As shown, the fourth boss 224 is a rigid boss. In this way, the fourth boss 224 cannot be compressed, which can effectively improve the insertion strength between the plug 21 and the socket 22, reduce the radial sway of the plug 21 along the through hole 4, and improve the insertion stability between the plug 21 and the socket 22 in the electronic device.

[0076] In some embodiments, such as Figure 8 As shown, the fourth boss 224 is an elastic boss. In this way, the fourth boss 224 can protect the inner wall of the socket 222 and reduce the wear of the socket 222 during the frequent plugging and unplugging of the plug 21.

[0077] In some embodiments, such as Figure 8 As shown, the fourth protrusion 224 is integrally formed with the socket housing 221. This eliminates the need to manufacture the fourth protrusion 224 separately, reducing the difficulty of socket manufacturing.

[0078] In some embodiments, such as Figure 8 As shown, the height of the fourth boss 224 can be 0.02–0.08 mm. Thus, as... Figure 9 As shown, the fourth boss 224 can fill the gap between the socket 222 and the plug 21, thereby improving the insertion strength between the plug 21 and the socket 22 and reducing the amplitude of the plug 21's radial wobbling along the through hole 4.

[0079] In some embodiments, such as Figure 8 As shown, the socket 222 is provided with a tongue 223, such as Figure 9As shown, the tongue 223 is used to mate with the receiving hole 211 of the plug 21. The side wall of the tongue 223 is provided with a fifth protrusion 225. When the plug 21 is inserted into the socket 222 of the socket 22, the fifth protrusion 225 contacts the plug 21. In this way, the fifth protrusion 225 can fill the gap between the inner wall of the receiving hole 211 and the tongue 223, which can further improve the insertion strength between the plug 21 and the socket 22 and reduce the amplitude of the plug 21's radial wobble along the through hole 4.

[0080] In some embodiments, such as Figure 8 As shown, the side wall of the tongue 223 is also provided with a sixth protrusion 226. Thus, as... Figure 9 As shown, the sixth boss 226 can fill the gap between the inner wall of the receiving hole 211 and the tongue 223, which can further improve the insertion strength between the plug 21 and the socket 22 and reduce the amplitude of the plug 21's radial wobbling along the through hole 4.

[0081] In some embodiments, such as Figure 8 As shown, the tongue 223 includes a tip c and a root d. A fifth protrusion 225 is positioned near the tip c, and a sixth protrusion 226 is positioned near the root d. Thus, as... Figure 9 As shown, the fifth boss 225 and the sixth boss 226 can respectively fill the two ends of the gap between the inner wall of the receiving hole 211 and the tongue 223, effectively preventing the tongue 223 from shaking in the receiving hole 211, improving the insertion strength and stability between the plug 21 and the socket 22, and avoiding the need to set bosses on the entire side wall of the tongue 223, thereby reducing the weight and material cost of the socket 22.

[0082] In some embodiments, such as Figure 8 As shown, the socket can be a USB Type-C socket. The USB Type-C plug can be inserted into either side of the socket, making connection convenient.

[0083] In some embodiments, such as Figure 8 As shown, the height of the fifth boss 225 is 0.025–0.1 mm. Thus, as… Figure 9 As shown, the fifth boss 225 can fill the gap between the receiving hole 211 and the tongue 223, thereby improving the insertion strength between the plug 21 and the socket 22.

[0084] In some embodiments, such as Figure 8 As shown, the height of the sixth boss 226 is 0–0.05 mm. Thus, as… Figure 9 As shown, the sixth boss 226 can fill the gap between the receiving hole 211 and the tongue 223, thereby improving the insertion strength between the plug 21 and the socket 22.

[0085] In some embodiments, such as Figure 8 As shown, the fifth protrusion 225 and the tongue 223 are integrally formed; the sixth protrusion 226 and the tongue 223 are integrally formed. In this way, there is no need to manufacture the fifth protrusion 225 and the sixth protrusion 226 separately, which reduces the manufacturing difficulty of the socket 22.

[0086] In some embodiments, such as Figure 8 As shown, the end face of the fourth boss 224 near the opening e of the socket 22 forms a guide slope or guide arc surface, which facilitates the insertion of the plug 21 into the socket 222 of the socket 22.

[0087] In some embodiments, such as Figure 8 As shown, the end face of the fifth boss 225 near the tip c of the tongue forms a guide bevel or a guide arc; the end face of the sixth boss 226 near the tip c of the tongue forms a guide bevel or a guide arc. This facilitates the insertion of the tongue 223 into the receiving hole 211 of the plug 21.
