Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to an electrical connector socket with an integrated fuse and an electrical connector with an integrated fuse. Background Technology

[0002] In traditional electric vehicles, the conductive cables from the battery box are led out to a PDU (Power Distribution Unit) enclosure or a multi-functional enclosure. These enclosures are located in the front compartment of the vehicle, and from there, cables are routed to electrical equipment in the front and / or rear compartments. Currently, fuses are built into the circuits of low-current electrical equipment such as compressors and PTCs in electric vehicles to prevent short-term overload current from burning out the equipment. These fuses are mostly located in the PDU enclosure or multi-functional enclosure. This wiring method is costly, requires significant installation space, and is inconvenient for maintenance.

[0003] In fact, there are also existing technologies that integrate fuses into connectors. For example, the safety plug device for high-voltage batteries disclosed in Chinese invention patent CN103872531B has terminals for inserting into the battery box to connect the plug to the battery box. The plug is equipped with a fuse to cut off the circuit. Another example is the connector with instantaneous overload protection function disclosed in Chinese utility model patent CN209800299U, which has a fuse soldered and fixed on the printed circuit board pads inside the connector to achieve overload protection.

[0004] However, most of these integrated fuse electrical connectors are used as part of a circuit, with the sole purpose of facilitating fuse replacement. For example, when the fuse blows, the connector can be pulled out and replaced with a new one, making future maintenance convenient. The circuit is still located in the battery and other electrical equipment that uses this type of connector, and it is not suitable for use in conductive connections between electrical equipment and electrical users. Therefore, it is necessary to develop electrical connectors with integrated fuses that are suitable for use between battery boxes and electrical users. Summary of the Invention

[0065] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the embodiments.

[0066] Specific embodiment 1 of the electrical connector with integrated fuse provided by the present invention:

[0067] The electrical connector provided in this embodiment includes a fixed socket 100 and an adapter plug 200. The fixed socket 100 is used to fix itself to the battery box and serves as a power supply socket. The adapter plug 200 is used to detachably plug and unplug from the fixed socket 100. A power supply cable is connected to the adapter plug 200. When the adapter plug 200 is plugged into the fixed socket 100, the battery pack can directly supply power to the electrical equipment. A fuse 8 is integrated in the fixed socket 100. When an overload current occurs, the fuse 8 melts to prevent high overload current from damaging the electrical equipment.

[0068] The structure of the electrical connector provided in this embodiment is as follows: Figures 1 to 6As shown, the electrical connector includes a detachable and mating fixed socket 100 and an adapter plug 200. The fixed socket 100 is used for fixed installation on the battery box, and the adapter plug 200 is used for connecting the power supply cable.

[0069] The fixed socket 100 includes a base 1 and a top cover 2. The base 1 is used to fix the battery box to the enclosure, and the top cover 2 is detachably fixed to the outside of the base 1. The base 1 itself includes a base body 12 and a panel 11. The base body 12 and the panel 11 are tightly fitted together. When the base 1 is fixedly installed on the enclosure, the panel 11 blocks the connector mounting port on the enclosure.

[0070] A socket core 13 protrudes from the base body 12. The socket core 13 includes a socket insulator, and a socket contact is disposed within the socket insulator. This socket contact includes two positive contacts 131 and two negative contacts 132. The base body 12 also has a positive terminal 3 and a negative terminal 4. When the base 1 is fixed to the battery box, the positive terminal 3 is used to electrically connect with the positive conductive component inside the battery box, and the negative terminal 4 is used to electrically connect with the negative conductive component inside the battery box. Furthermore, the negative terminal 4 is electrically and fixedly connected to the two negative contacts 132. The positive terminal 3 is electrically connected to the two positive contacts 131 correspondingly via two fuses 8. It should be noted that the two ends of the fuses 8 are fixed with screws to electrically connect with the corresponding positive terminals 3 and positive contacts 131, achieving a one-to-two power split. In fact, as... Figure 4 As shown, a positive wire 202 and a negative wire 203 are connected to the adapter plug 200 so that when the adapter plug 200 is fixedly plugged into the fixed socket 100, the positive wire 202 is electrically connected to the positive terminal 3 and the negative wire 203 is electrically connected to the negative terminal 4.

[0071] Furthermore, both fuses 8 are arranged along the extension direction of the panel 11, in a horizontal arrangement relative to the panel 11, and the fuses 8 are located inside the base body 12 of the base 1, which can relatively reduce the overall height occupied by the fixed socket 100.

[0072] like Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, the upper cover 2 is detachably fixed to the outside of the base 1 with a buckle, which can effectively cover the fuse 8 and the sealing base 1. In this embodiment, a socket housing 21 protrudes from the upper cover 2. The socket housing 21 is an annular housing. When the upper cover 2 is fixed to the outside of the base 1, the socket housing 21 is fitted over the corresponding socket core 13. The socket housing 21 is used to mate with the plug housing of the adapter plug 200. The socket housing 21 is provided with a locking-unlocking connection structure 22, and the plug housing is provided with an adapter locking-unlocking connection structure 201. The locking-unlocking connection structure 22 and the adapter locking-unlocking connection structure 201 are correspondingly matched to achieve effective locking of the adapter plug 200 and the fixed socket 100. In this embodiment, the locking-unlocking connection structure 22 is a latch commonly used on existing connectors, while the adapter locking-unlocking connection structure 201 is an elastic locking arm commonly used on existing connectors. The elastic locking arm is provided with a hook for hooking and engaging with the latch. When the adapter plug 200 and the fixed socket 100 are plugged in, the hook of the elastic locking arm hooks and engages with the latch. When unlocking is required, the elastic locking arm can be pressed to disengage the hook from the latch and achieve normal unlocking.

[0073] Of course, the locking-unlocking connection structure 22 and the adapter locking-unlocking connection structure 201 here can also adopt the locking connection structure commonly used in existing connectors. The specific structure will not be described in detail here.

[0074] In this embodiment, the upper cover 2 is detachably fixed to the outside of the base 1 by fastening bolts 5. In fact, the fastening bolts 5 have an internal connecting end, and the base body 12 is provided with bolt through holes for the internal connecting end of the fastening bolts 5 to pass through and be threadedly connected to the battery box body to fix both the upper cover 2 and the base 1 to the battery box.

[0075] The aforementioned fastening bolts 5 are distributed in six circumferential directions. Correspondingly, six bolt holes are provided on the top cover 2 and the panel 11. The panel 11 is provided with a guide cylinder 7 extending toward the inside of the battery box. The inner hole of the guide cylinder 7 forms part of the bolt holes on the panel 11.

[0076] It should be noted that in this embodiment, a blocked position 110 is provided on the panel 11 at the position corresponding to the socket housing 21. The blocked position 110 is blocked by the adapter plug 200. That is, when the adapter plug 200 is plugged into the fixed socket 100, the projection of the adapter plug 200 on the base 1 will form a blocking area. This blocking area will form a corresponding blocked position 110 on the panel 11. Furthermore, at least one of the six fastening bolts 5 is located at the blocked position 110, so that the adapter plug 200 can prevent the corresponding fastening bolt 5 from being removed. In this way, when the adapter plug 200 is not unplugged from the fixed socket 100, the operator cannot turn the fastening bolt 5 located at the blocked position 110, and therefore cannot remove the fastening bolt 5 located at the blocked position 110, and thus cannot remove the top cover 2.

[0077] During assembly, the positive terminal 3, negative terminal 4, fuse 8, and socket core 13 are pre-installed in the base body 12. Then, the base body 12 is fixedly fastened to the panel 11 to form the base 1. The upper cover 2 is then snapped onto the outside of the base 1, and the socket housing 21 on the upper cover 2 is fitted into the socket core 13. At this point, the base 1 is snapped onto the connector mounting port on the battery box, and the upper cover 2 and base 1 are fixed together on the box using the fastening bolts 5 passing through them, completing the fixed assembly of the socket 100. At this point, the positive terminal 3 is electrically connected to the positive conductive component inside the battery box, and the negative terminal 4 is electrically connected to the negative conductive component inside the battery box. Specifically, a top-pressing conductive connection can be used. Then, the adapter plug 200 for connecting to electrical equipment can be plugged into the fixed socket 100 to achieve a power supply conductive connection and form a power supply circuit.

[0078] When an overload current occurs, the excessive current will burn out fuse 8, disconnecting the power supply circuit and preventing damage to the electrical equipment, thus providing effective protection.

[0079] When it is necessary to replace fuse 8, the adapter plug 200 must first be unplugged from the fixed socket 100 to expose the fastening bolts 5 in the blocked position 110. Then, all the fastening bolts 5 can be removed to remove the top cover 2 from the base 1, making it easy to replace fuse 8. This enhances safety and avoids accidents caused by directly removing the top cover 2 or by misoperation while the circuit is energized.

[0080] In the connector provided in this embodiment, the fuse is directly integrated into the fixed socket, and the socket can directly plug in and unplug the corresponding adapter plug, thereby enabling direct connection from the battery box to the electrical equipment, reducing the overall vehicle wiring cost, and allowing for maintenance and replacement by removing the top cover, thus providing better maintainability.

[0081] Specific embodiment 2 of the electrical connector with integrated fuse provided by the present invention:

[0082] The main difference between this embodiment and Embodiment 1 is that in Embodiment 1, the positive terminal is electrically connected to the corresponding positive contact via a fuse. In this embodiment, the negative terminal is electrically connected to the negative contact via a fuse. At this time, the positive terminal is electrically connected to the positive contact. The positive terminal and the positive contact can be configured as an integral structure or designed as a separate conductive connection structure, and the connection can be achieved using an intermediate wire.

[0083] Of course, in other embodiments, the positive and negative terminals can be electrically connected to the positive and negative contacts respectively via a fuse.

[0084] Specific embodiment 3 of the electrical connector with integrated fuse provided by the present invention:

[0085] The main difference between this embodiment and Embodiment 1 is that in Embodiment 1, the base includes a base body and a panel, which are assembled separately for easy processing. In this embodiment, the base body and the panel can also be an integral structure, which can be injection molded and then processed accordingly.

[0086] Specific embodiment 4 of the electrical connector with integrated fuse provided by the present invention:

[0087] The main difference between this embodiment and Embodiment 1 is that in Embodiment 1, the fastening bolts pass through the base to fix the top cover and the base together to the battery box body. In this embodiment, the top cover can be detachably fixed to the base by the first fastening bolt, and the base can be fixed to the battery box body by the second fastening bolt.

[0088] Specific embodiment 5 of the electrical connector with integrated fuse provided by the present invention:

[0089] The main difference between this embodiment and Embodiment 1 is that in Embodiment 1, the top cover is detachably mounted on the base using fastening bolts. In this embodiment, the top cover can also be detachably fixed to the battery box body using a snap-fit ​​connection structure.

[0090] Specific embodiment 6 of the electrical connector with integrated fuse provided by the present invention:

[0091] The main difference between this embodiment and Embodiment 1 is that in Embodiment 1, the fuse is arranged along the extension direction of the panel, reducing the height occupied. In this embodiment, the fuse is arranged in the corresponding fixed base along the insertion direction of the adapter plug, which reduces the area occupied.

[0092] Specific embodiment 7 of the electrical connector with integrated fuse provided by the present invention:

[0093] The main difference between this embodiment and Embodiment 1 is that in Embodiment 1, a socket housing is provided on the top cover for fitting onto the socket insert on the base. In this embodiment, the socket housing is directly placed on the panel, and the top cover only covers the corresponding fuse.

[0094] Specific embodiment 8 of the electrical connector with integrated fuse provided by the present invention:

[0095] The main difference between this embodiment and Embodiment 1 is that in Embodiment 1, the base body and the panel are tightly fitted together. In this embodiment, for the base, the panel 11 has a positioning hole 111, and the base body 12 has an insertion flange 121. The insertion flange 121 is used to fit into the positioning hole 111. The insertion flange 121 has a notch, and a snap-fit ​​arm 122 is provided at the notch. The snap-fit ​​arm 122 has a barb structure on its outer side. When the insertion flange 121 of the base body 12 is inserted into the positioning hole 111 of the panel 11 from the bottom up, the barb structure on the snap-fit ​​arm 122 will press against the panel to achieve reverse snap-fit ​​fixation, thereby fixing the panel and the base body together.

[0096] When it is necessary to separate the panel and the base body, you can first manually push the snap-fit ​​spring 122 to deform it elastically. The barbed structure will no longer press against the panel. At this time, the panel can be removed from the base body to separate the two.

[0097] Of course, in other embodiments, bolt connections can be used to achieve a fixed connection between the base body and the battery box, and then a detachable fixed connection between the panel and the base body.

[0098] The present invention also provides an embodiment 1 of an electrical connector socket with an integrated fuse:

[0099] The structure of the electrical connector socket in this embodiment is the same as that of the fixed socket in embodiment 1 of the electrical connector, and will not be described again here.

[0100] Of course, in other embodiments, the structure of the electrical connector socket may also adopt the structure of the fixed socket in any of the embodiments of electrical connector 2 to 7, which will not be described in detail here.

[0101] Finally, it should be noted that the above descriptions are merely preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still make modifications to the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments without creative effort, or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included within the protection scope of the present invention.
