[0023] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0024] See also Figure 1-7The present invention provides a technical solution: a rectangular electrical connector for parallel plugging and separation, comprising a plug 1 and a socket 2 plugged with the plug 1, wherein the plug 1 comprises a first shell 101, a pin mounting hole 102, a contact head 103, and a spring 104, wherein the first shell 101 is provided with a pin mounting hole 102, wherein one end of the pin mounting hole 102 is slidably mounted with a contact head 103, wherein the contact head 103 is provided inside the first shell 101 and is sleeved with a spring 104 on the outside of one end thereof, wherein the socket 2 comprises a second shell 201 and a contact point 202, wherein the second shell 201 is provided with a contact point 202, wherein the tail of the second shell 201 is provided with a groove 203, wherein the second shell 201 is electrically connected by sliding contact with the first shell 101 in a transverse direction. The cable is connected from the direction of the groove 203.

[0025] Furthermore, a wire 105 is welded to the tail of the contact head 103 , and the wire 105 passes through the spring 104 .

[0026] Furthermore, the contact heads 103 are arranged in two rows, and the lower ends of the contact heads 103 in the two rows are triangular shapes with flat sides, the arrangement direction of the triangular shapes is consistent, and the upper ends are cylindrical structures.

[0027] When the triangle shape is slidably inserted, the insertion force is decomposed into vertical and lateral directions, which facilitates pushing the contact head 103 for insertion.

[0028] Furthermore, the first shell 101 and the second shell 201 are made of insulating materials.

[0029] Furthermore, the contact points 202 are rectangular at the upper end and cylindrical at the lower end, and are arranged in two rows. A small hole is provided at the cylindrical position at the lower end, and one end of the cable can be inserted for welding connection.

[0030] Furthermore, the position where the pin mounting hole 102 is connected to the contact head 103 is stepped, and the outer shape of the contact head 103 is also stepped.

[0031] Embodiment: The contact point 202 on the socket is designed as a plane, which makes elastic contact with the contact head 103 on the plug. The contact head 103 on the plug is designed as a rectangular inclined surface, which cooperates with the internal spring 104 to form an elastic contact point 103. When in use, the insulator of the socket applies a thrust to the inclined surface of the plug contact head 103, and a downward force is generated after the force is decomposed, pushing the contact head 103 of the plug to move downward, and the contact head 103 retracts into the plug insulator. After the socket is plugged in place, the plug contact head 103 contacts the contact point 202 of the socket under the action of the spring force, and the electrical connection of the circuit is realized. During installation, the distance and position of the sliding of the socket and the plug are controlled by the external installation to ensure that the plug and the socket slide to the electrically connected and separated state. The external installation control is not introduced in detail, and it is sufficient to realize the control position required by the socket and the plug of the present invention.

[0032] It should be noted that, in this article, relational terms such as first and second, etc. are only used to distinguish one entity or operation from another entity or operation, and do not necessarily require or imply any such actual relationship or order between these entities or operations. Moreover, the terms "include", "comprise" or any other variants thereof are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion, so that a process, method, article or device including a series of elements includes not only those elements, but also other elements not explicitly listed, or also includes elements inherent to such process, method, article or device. In the absence of further restrictions. The sentence "includes an element defined by ... does not exclude the existence of other identical elements in the process, method, article or device including the element".

[0033] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and variations may be made to the embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, and that the scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
