Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of medical devices, and in particular to a connector. Background Art

[0002] Connectors, also known as connectors, plugs and sockets, generally refer to electrical connectors, that is, devices that connect two active devices to transmit current or signals. There are two main types of connectors on the market, one with an insertion feel and the other without an insertion feel. The advantage of the former is that the operator has a clear insertion feel when inserting the connector. The disadvantage is that in addition to the main functional components of the connector, it is usually necessary to set components on the outer shell of the connector to give the connector an insertion feel, which will make the connector larger overall. The other type of connector without an insertion feel is low in cost and only requires the functional components of the connector. The disadvantage is that there is no insertion feel, which makes the operator's experience of inserting the connector poor. Summary of the Invention

[0029] like Figure 1 As shown, the present invention provides a connector. When plugging or unplugging the connector, the first connector on the male socket 5 is connected or separated from the second connector 3 on the female socket 1, and a plugging and unplugging feel is generated, which brings a good user experience to the operator.

[0030] Specifically, the connector includes a male socket 5 and a female socket 1. The male socket 5 is equipped with a male pin 6 and a first connector; the female socket 1 is equipped with a female pin 2 and a second connector 3. When the male socket 5 is connected to the female socket 1, the male pin 6 connects with the female pin 2, and the second connector 3 attracts the first connector. When the male socket 5 is plugged into the female socket 1, the second connector 3 exerts a suction force on the first connector, making the connector feel easy to plug and unplug during use. Furthermore, the male socket 5 and female socket 1 are detachably connected, facilitating insertion, removal, and installation.

[0031] In this embodiment, the female connector 1 is provided with a first groove 12, with a female end positioning block 11 at the bottom of the first groove 12, and a gap 13 between the female end positioning block 11 and the sidewall of the first groove 12. A second groove 52 is provided at one end of the male connector 5. After the male connector 5 is connected to the female connector 1, one end of the male connector 5 is inserted into the gap 13, and the female end positioning block 11 is placed in the second groove 52. When the male connector 5 and the female connector 1 are connected, the first groove 12 and gap 13 guide the male connector 5, making the overall structure convenient for assembly and disassembly and easy to use.

[0032] Furthermore, a through hole 111 is axially defined in the middle of the female end positioning block 11, into which the second connector 3 is mounted. A first connector is positioned within the second recess 52, which can be inserted into the through hole 111 and connected to the second connector 3. During insertion and removal, the through hole 111 acts as a guide, guiding the operator to bring the first connector closer to the second connector 3 and engage it, making it quick and easy to use.

[0033] Furthermore, an elastic member 4 is disposed within through-hole 111, through which the first connector can pass to connect with the second connector 3. When plugging and unplugging the connector, the first connector stretches the elastic member 4, causing it to deform radially outward. This creates resistance against the first connector and clamps it. The elastic member 4 and the first connector are connected in a snap-fit manner, providing a stable connection. When plugging and unplugging the connector, the resistance of the elastic member 4 and the suction of the second connector 3 complement each other, enhancing the feel of the plugging and unplugging process.

[0034] Furthermore, the first connector includes a connecting rod 7. The end of the connecting rod 7 connected to the second connecting member 3 is provided with a circumferentially defined snap-in groove 71. The snap-in groove 71 is recessed radially inwardly along the connecting rod 7, allowing the elastic member 4 to snap into place within the snap-in groove 71. In this embodiment, the elastic member 4 is preferably a crown spring. The snap-in groove 71 matches the shape of the crown spring. Because the crown spring has a large diameter at both ends and a small diameter in the middle, when the connecting rod 7 is inserted into the crown spring, the connecting rod 7 first opens the crown spring's head. As the connecting rod 7 is inserted, the diameter of the crown spring in contact gradually decreases, and the insertion resistance gradually increases. When the snap-in groove 71 on the connecting rod 7 is halfway inserted, the resistance of the connecting rod 7 gradually decreases, and the snap-in groove 71 finally slides into the crown spring. The resistance gradually decreases during insertion and removal, further enhancing the insertion and removal feel.

[0035] In this embodiment, the connecting rod 7 is made of ferromagnetic material, and the second connecting member 3 includes a magnet that can attract and connect the connecting rod 7. The connecting rod 7 is preferably made of iron, cobalt, nickel or an alloy thereof, which is low in cost and easy to use.

[0036] like Figure 2 As shown, in this embodiment, a plurality of female end pin holes 112 are provided on the female end positioning block 11 along the axial direction, and the female end pin holes 112 surround the through hole 111. The female end pin 2 is arranged in the female end pin hole 112, and one end of the female end pin 2 is placed in the female end pin hole 112, and the other end passes through the female end pin hole 112 and is placed on the outside of the female seat 1.

[0037] Further, continue to refer to Figure 1 The end of the male connector 5 opposite the second groove 52 is provided with a third groove 53. The bottom of the third groove 53 is provided with a male end positioning block 51. One end of the male end pin 6 is inserted through the male end positioning block 51 and placed in the second groove 52, and the other end of the male end pin 6 is placed in the third groove 53. After the male connector 5 is connected to the female connector 1, the male end pin 6 can be inserted into the female end pin hole 112 and contact and connect with the female end pin 2, realizing the transmission of current and signals.

[0038] In particular, the outer wall of the female base 1 is fixedly connected with two positioning ears 14 for fixing the female base 1, and the two positioning ears 14 are symmetrically arranged. The positioning ears 14 are provided with screw holes, and screws are passed through the screw holes to fix the female base 1.

[0039] Obviously, the above embodiments of the present invention are merely examples for the purpose of clearly illustrating the present invention and are not intended to limit the embodiments of the present invention. A person skilled in the art would be able to make various obvious changes, readjustments, and substitutions without departing from the scope of protection of the present invention. It is not necessary and impossible to enumerate all embodiments here. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present invention shall be included within the scope of protection of the claims of the present invention.
