[0002] At present, the high-voltage connectors on new energy electric vehicles have different structures and shapes. The main problems are as follows:

[0003] 1. The connectors on the market are generally made of plastic shells, and only have a fixed angle of 90°, which is limited in use, and the strength of plastic is not suitable for all positions of the vehicle;

[0004] 2. The connectors on the market generally use tie rods as the head seat connection method. The tie rod requires a large operating space and is not suitable for the compact layout of the current vehicle. In addition, the tie rod connection requires high precision in the matching of parts;

[0005] 3. Connectors on the market generally use O-rings and single or double lip seals for sealing. Although this structure has low cost and small assembly space requirements, the current use requirements of new energy vehicles are more stringent and the use environment of vehicles is more complex. O-rings and double lips no longer meet the current use environment requirements;
