[0033] Specifically, refer to Figure 5 The front part of the plug 8 is provided with an inner cavity 81 opening forward, and the elastic ring 6 and the locking buckle 7 are both arranged in the inner cavity 81. Figure 3 , Figure 4 The locking buckle 7 is a conical structure, and the end with a smaller diameter of the locking buckle 7 is at the front side. The elastic ring 6 is sleeved on the outer side of the front end with a smaller diameter of the locking buckle 7. The locking buckle 7 is a petal structure composed of four arc-shaped petals 71 distributed along the circumference. The rear end faces of the four arc-shaped petals 71 are all arc-shaped structures. An inner groove 811 is provided at the rear cavity wall of the inner cavity 81. The rear end of the arc-shaped petal 71 extends into the inner groove 811, and cooperates with the inner groove 811 structure to make the front end of the arc-shaped petal 71 active in the radial direction. The arc-shaped petal 71 can move its front end radially toward / away from the axis of the connecting seat with its rear end and the inner groove 811 as the axis, so as to realize the reduction / increase of the inner diameter of the front end of the locking buckle 7.

When unlocking is required, the hose core 2 is pushed forward, and the connecting part 21 continues to move forward in the connecting cavity 11. The unlocking ring 9 contacts the inner side wall of the front end of the locking buckle 7, and the front end inner diameter of the locking buckle 7 is increased. The front end of the locking buckle 7 slides into the unlocking groove 91, and the hose core 2 is pulled backward. Since the outer diameter of the unlocking ring 9 is consistent with the outer diameter of the connecting part 21, the hose core 2 can be disengaged from the connecting seat 1, and the hose core 2 and the connecting seat 1 are unlocked. The front and rear side walls of the unlocking groove 91 are inclined, which is convenient for cooperation with the locking buckle, and can reduce the locking force. The hose of the hose connector The connection, locking, unlocking and disengagement of the core 2 and the connecting seat 1 are simple and easy to operate quickly. The quick-insert locking / unlocking structure formed by the locking buckle 7, the locking groove 22 and the plug 8 is simple and sophisticated, easy to operate, and has a low manufacturing cost. The hose connector has a very good application prospect. The locking buckle 7 composed of four arc-shaped petals 71 has a sophisticated structure, can be used repeatedly, and has a long service life. The conical locking buckle is used to convert the radial elastic force into an axial locking force. Only a small radial elastic force is required to achieve a large axial locking force. The structure is sophisticated, which significantly improves the locking force, significantly improves the locking reliability, and significantly improves the reliability of the use of the connector.
[0035] The hose core 2 is provided with an anti-drop buckle 10 at the rear side of the connecting part 21 to prevent the hose core 2 from falling off the connecting seat 1. The anti-drop buckle 10 is a spring sheet structure with an opening. The corresponding part of the hose core 2 is provided with an anti-drop groove matching the anti-drop buckle 10. The anti-drop buckle 10 and the anti-drop groove are detachably connected. When connected, the anti-drop buckle 10 is stuck in the anti-drop groove to limit the length of the hose core inserted into the connecting seat. In this embodiment, the rear side of the plug is on the rear and outer side of the connecting seat. After the connection is locked, the front end face of the anti-drop buckle 10 conflicts with the rear end face of the plug 8, limiting the further forward movement of the connecting part 21, thereby avoiding triggering the unlocking operation of the locking buckle and the unlocking ring. The anti-drop buckle can be removed before unlocking to achieve unlocking of the hose core and the connecting seat.
[0036] An axial hole running through the front and back is provided at the axial center of the hose core 2. The rear end of the hose core 2 is a bamboo head connected to the connecting pipe. The outer peripheral surface of the bamboo head is a serrated barb structure, which is convenient for connection with the connecting pipe. An elastic ring groove 82 matching the elastic ring 6 is opened in the inner cavity 81 of the plug 8 at the position corresponding to the elastic ring 6. The elastic ring groove 82 is used to set the elastic ring 82 to stabilize the position of the elastic ring 8 and ensure sufficient locking force.
[0037] The working process of the present invention is as follows: first, the external thread connection structure of the connecting seat 1 is connected to the hydraulic system port. When in use, the anti-drop buckle 10 is clamped in the anti-drop buckle groove of the hose core 2, and then the connecting part 21 of the hose core 2 is inserted into the connecting seat 1. Since the front end inner diameter of the locking buckle 7 is smaller than the diameter of the connecting part 21 of the hose core, under the action of thrust, the locking buckle 7 is deformed by squeezing the elastic ring 6, so that the connecting part 21 of the hose core 2 passes through the front end of the locking buckle 7. Since the diameter of the locking groove 22 of the hose core 1 is smaller than the front end inner diameter of the locking buckle 7, the locking buckle 7 is in a locked state, and the L-shaped locking groove at the front end of the locking buckle 7 is clamped at the front side wall of the locking groove. Under the sealing effect of the sealing ring, the hose core 2 and the connecting seat 1 are reliably sealed; when disassembly is required, only the anti-drop buckle 10 needs to be removed, and the hose core 1 is pushed into the inside of the connecting seat. Under the push of the unlocking ring 9, the unlocking ring pushes the locking buckle to open it, and the hose core can be smoothly taken out with the sliding of the unlocking ring to complete the disassembly.
[0038] Embodiment 2: In this embodiment, after the plug 8 is installed on the connecting seat 1, the rear end face of the plug 8 is located on the front side of the rear end face of the connecting seat 1, and the front end of the anti-drop buckle 10 abuts against the rear end face of the connecting seat 1 to limit and prevent dropout.
[0039] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and does not limit the present invention in any form. Any simple modification or equivalent changes made to the above embodiments based on the technical essence of the present invention shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
