[0043] The head shell 15 of the present invention is provided with a shielding ring 14 in the middle, and the shielding ring 14 is located between the annular spring seat 120 and the annular groove J156. The front end of the head shell 15 is provided with a plurality of axially arranged convex keys H152 (the number of convex keys H152 in this embodiment is five), and the front end of the seat shell 2 is provided with a concave key Q21 (the number of concave keys Q21 in this embodiment is five) that cooperates with the convex key H152. The head shell 15 is provided with at least one vertical groove I151 axially on the outside, and the locking sleeve 12 is provided with a convex key F122 that movably cooperates with the vertical groove I151 on the inside. Two vertical grooves I151 are symmetrically provided on the outside of the head shell 15, and the vertical groove I151 has a first end side 1511 and a second end side 1512. Two convex keys F122 are provided on the inside of the locking sleeve 12, and the two convex keys F122 are symmetrically arranged on the inside of the annular spring seat 120 of the locking sleeve 12.

One end of the torsion spring 13 is connected and fixed in the hole E123, and the other end of the torsion spring 13 is connected and fixed in the hole G153.

[0045] The structural principle of the socket body of this embodiment is as follows: the sealing ring 1 is installed in the groove of the seat shell 2, the seat shell 2 has a transverse hole for assembling the steel ball 3, the steel ball 3 is installed in the transverse hole of the seat shell 2, and the riveting interface of the seat shell 2 is riveted so that the steel ball 3 can move radially between a certain position in the transverse hole of the seat shell without falling out; the tooth sleeve A6 is installed in the hole of the pin insulator 5, and then the small boss of the insulating pressure plate A8 blocks the tooth sleeve A6 so that the tooth sleeve A6 cannot fall out axially. The interface gasket A4 and the pin insulator 5, the pin insulator 5 and the insulating pressure plate A8, and the insulating pressure plate A8 and the sealing body A9 are bonded with glue; after bonding, the interface gasket 4, the pin insulator 5, the insulating pressure plate A8, the sealing body A9 and the tooth sleeve A6 form a pin insulator assembly. The convex key of the pin insulator 5 is installed in the concave key in the seat shell 2 to prevent the rotation between the pin insulator assembly and the seat shell 2; the fixing ring 10 mechanically fixes the pin insulator assembly to the seat shell 2 by buckling the step in the cavity of the seat shell 2. The pin 7 (crimped wire before use) passes through the hole of the sealing body A9 and is installed in the pin insulator assembly. The gear sleeve A6 fixes the pin 7 to prevent the pin 7 from axial withdrawal. The through hole of the sealing body A9 tightly wraps the outer rubber of the wire to achieve the sealing of the tail of the socket with the outside world. The seat shell 2 is designed with external threads and anti-rotation teeth, which can be used with the wire tail accessories. The screws can be installed and fixed to the chassis panel through the four through holes on the flange of the seat shell 2.

[0046] The plug body structure principle of this embodiment is as follows: the tooth sleeve B61 is installed in the hole of the hole insulator 17, and the small boss of the insulating pressure plate B81 blocks the tooth sleeve B61, so that the tooth sleeve B61 cannot be axially disengaged; the hole insulator 17 and the insulating pressure plate B81, and the insulating pressure plate B81 and the sealing body B91 are bonded with glue; after bonding, the hole insulator 17, the insulating pressure plate B81, the sealing body B91 and the tooth sleeve B61 form a hole insulator assembly. The convex key of the hole insulator 17 is installed in the concave key of the head shell 15 to prevent the hole insulator assembly from rotating with the head shell 15; the fixing ring B101 mechanically fixes the hole insulator assembly to the head shell 15 by buckling the step in the cavity of the head shell 15; the jack 18 (the wire is crimped before use) passes through the hole of the sealing body 9 and is installed in the hole in the insulator assembly, and the tooth sleeve B61 fixes the jack 18 to prevent the jack 18 from axial withdrawal; the through hole of the sealing body B91 tightly wraps the outer rubber of the wire to achieve the sealing of the tail of the plug with the outside world. The shielding ring 14 is installed in the outer groove of the head shell 15; the head shell 15 is designed with external threads and anti-rotation teeth to be used with the tail accessories of the wire protection. One end of the torsion spring 13 is installed in the hole G153 of the head shell 15, and the other end is installed in the hole E123 of the locking sleeve 12. The torsion spring 13 provides elastic force and torque between the head shell 15 and the locking sleeve 12. The convex key F122 of the locking sleeve 12 cooperates with the vertical groove I 151 of the head housing 15, and the convex key F122 can only rotate in the vertical groove I 151. Under the torsion torque of the torsion spring 13, the convex key F122 leans against the second end side 1512 of the vertical groove I 151. The limiting hoop 16 is installed in the annular groove C113 of the connecting ring 11; the connecting end 161 of the limiting hoop 16 is installed in the vertical groove B112 of the connecting ring 11, so that the limiting hoop 16 and the connecting ring 11 cannot rotate relative to each other. The straight section 162 of the limiting hoop 16 falls into the annular groove K1551 of the head housing 15. The head shell 15 has three planar matching parts 154, and the three planar matching parts 154 correspond to the three straight sections 162 of the limiting hoop 16. When the three straight sections 162 of the limiting hoop 16 rotate to the same position as the three planar matching parts 154, the limiting hoop 16 can be moved from the annular groove K1551 of the head shell 15 to the rear end (i.e. Figure 1 The convex key D121 of the locking sleeve 12 cooperates with the vertical groove A111 of the connecting ring 11, so that the locking sleeve 12 and the connecting ring 11 cannot rotate relative to each other.

[0047] The principle of the plugging and separating mechanism of the present invention is as follows:

[0048] (1) Before the plug and the socket are plugged in: the limiting hoop 16 is in the annular groove C113 of the connecting ring 11, the straight section 162 of the limiting hoop 16 is stuck in the annular groove K1551 of the head shell 15, and the positions of the three straight sections 162 of the limiting hoop 16 and the three flat matching parts 154 of the head shell 15 are staggered, and the limiting hoop 16 cannot be moved from the annular groove K1551 of the head shell to the rear end (i.e. Figure 1The right end of the head shell 15 is withdrawn. The torsion spring 13 is compressed between the head shell 15 and the locking sleeve 12; under the action of the elastic force of the torsion spring 13, the step surface of the locking sleeve 12 is pressed against the step surface of the connecting ring 11; under the action of the torsion torque of the torsion spring 13, the convex key F122 of the locking sleeve 12 is against the second end side 1512 of the vertical groove I 151 of the head shell 15. At this time, the connecting ring 11 and the head shell 15 will not rotate relative to each other. Holding the connecting ring 11 and rotating it by hand can drive the head shell 15 to rotate together, so that the 5 convex keys H152 of the head shell 15 can find the 5 concave keys Q21 of the seat shell 2, so as to achieve the positioning and plugging before the head and the seat are plugged in.

[0049] (2) The plug and socket plugging process: The steel ball 3 pushes the locking sleeve 12 to compress the torsion spring 13; the inner wall of the seat shell 2 compresses the shielding ring 14; the five convex keys H152 of the head shell 15 are inserted into the five concave keys Q21 of the seat shell 2 to realize the positioning function of the head and socket plugging.

[0050] (3) The plug and the socket are plugged in place: all the steel balls 3 fall into the annular groove J156 of the head shell 15; the locking sleeve 12 is reset under the elastic force of the torsion spring 13 and is again close to the step surface of the connecting ring 11; the inner surface of the locking sleeve 12 blocks the steel balls 3, so that the steel balls 3 cannot be withdrawn from the annular groove J156 of the head shell 15; the plug and the socket are plugged in and fixed; the inner wall of the seat shell 2 compresses the shielding ring 14; at this time, the pin 7 and the socket 8 are plugged in and connected; the head shell 15 and the seat shell 2 are connected through the shielding ring 14; the head shell 15 compresses the sealing ring 1 to achieve the sealing between the plug and the socket; the conical boss of the sealing gasket 4 is squeezed tightly with the conical concave surface of the hole insulator 17, and each hole position is sealed.

[0051] (4) Separation process of plug and socket: Hold the connecting ring 11 by hand and rotate it clockwise until it stops. At this time, the hand overcomes the torque of the torsion spring 13 and drives the connecting ring 11, the locking sleeve 12 and the limiting hoop 16 to rotate until the convex key F122 of the locking sleeve 12 is at the first end side 1511 of the vertical groove I 151 of the head shell 15. Then, pull the connecting ring 11 to the rear end (press the Figure 1 At this time, the three straight sections 162 of the limiting hoop 16 rotate to correspond to the three flat matching sections 154 of the head shell 15, and the annular groove K1551 restricts the limiting hoop 16 from moving to the rear end (by Figure 1 The restriction of moving to the right is released, and the connecting ring 11 drives the locking sleeve 12 to the rear end (press Figure 1 The locking sleeve 12 releases the constraint on the steel ball 3, and the steel ball 3 leaves the annular groove J156 of the head shell, and the constraints on the plug and socket are released; continue to move to the rear end (press Figure 1 Pull the connecting ring 11 to the right, and the plug will move with the connecting ring 11 to the rear end (press Figure 1After separation, loosen the connecting ring 11 by hand, and push the locking sleeve 12 to rotate counterclockwise (with the head shell 15 as the reference system) under the torque of the torsion spring 13 until the convex key F122 rests against the second end side 1512 of the vertical groove I 151, and the locking sleeve 12 pushes the connecting ring 11 to rotate counterclockwise, and the connecting ring 11 drives the limiting hoop 16 to rotate counterclockwise, and the positions of the three straight sections 162 of the limiting hoop 16 and the three flat matching parts 154 of the head shell 15 are staggered.
