When the plug-in cylinder 201 is pulled out of the sleeve 101, the insulating frame 504 is provided with a reset elastic force, so that the insulating frame 504 drives the conductive head 505 to separate from the conductive rod. When the plug-in cylinder 201 is inserted into the sleeve 101, the insulating frame 504 is driven to move, which can cause the second tension spring 503 to deform.

[0070] After the plug-in cylinder 201 is inserted into the sleeve 101, the buffer spring 8 is compressed. After being locked by the assembly mechanism 3, the buffer spring 8 provides elastic pressure for the upper shell 2 and the lower shell 1, playing a role of clamping. The stopper 7 is used to stop the plug-in cylinder 201 in place after it is inserted into the sleeve 101. The plug-in cylinder 201 contacts the stopper 7, and the positioning plug 305 is aligned with the positioning hole.

[0071] A sealing ring 6 is fixedly mounted on the bottom edge of the upper shell 2 , and an annular embedding groove 102 for embedding the sealing ring 6 is provided on the top edge of the lower shell 1 , and the annular embedding groove 102 is connected to an oil injection mechanism 9 .

The annular tube 902 is connected to the oil storage tank 905 through the driving part. A pressure rod 901 is provided on the driving part. The blocking column 7 is a hollow structure. The driving part is installed in any blocking column 7. The pressure rod 901 passes through the blocking column 7 and is arranged upward. When the corresponding plug-in cylinder 201 is inserted into the sleeve 101, the pressure rod 901 is pressed down to press the engine oil in the oil storage tank 905 into the annular groove 102 through the number of oil outlet tubes 9021.

[0073] The driving part includes an oil filling cylinder 908 fixedly installed in the retaining column 7 and a piston disk 909 arranged in the oil filling cylinder 908. The inner periphery of the oil filling cylinder 908 and the outer periphery of the piston disk 909 are slidably sealed. The lower end of the pressure rod 901 passes through the upper wall of the oil filling cylinder 908 and is connected to the piston disk 909. The piston disk 909 divides the oil filling cylinder 908 into an upper chamber and a closed lower chamber. A compression spring 910 is arranged in the lower chamber. The two ends of the compression spring 910 are respectively against the lower wall of the oil filling cylinder 908 and the piston disk 909.

[0074] The oil filling mechanism 9 is used for filling oil into the sealing ring 6 at the connection position between the upper shell 2 and the lower shell 1. By filling oil into the sealing ring 6, an oil film is formed, which can isolate air and water and protect the sealing ring 6. The oil can also fill the gap between the sealing ring 6 and the annular groove 102 after being compressed, thereby playing a role in improving the sealing.

[0075] The specific operation of the oil filling mechanism 9 is as follows: during the installation process between the upper shell 2 and the lower shell 1, the plug-in cylinder 201 is inserted into the sleeve 101 to push the pressure rod 901, and the pressure rod 901 drives the piston plate 909 to move, squeeze the oil in the lower chamber, and compress the compression spring 910 to produce compression deformation until the plug-in cylinder 201 contacts the stop column 7. The oil is pushed by the piston plate 909, passes through the first one-way valve 906 and the oil filling pipe 903, and then enters the annular pipe 902, and then evenly disperses to the annular embedded groove through a plurality of oil outlets 9021. 102, the annular groove 102 is evenly filled with oil, the upper shell 2 and the lower shell 1 are installed, and the two clamp the sealing ring 6, which is pressed in the annular groove 102, and oil is injected at the same time to protect the sealing ring 6; during the disassembly process between the upper shell 2 and the lower shell 1, the plug-in cylinder 201 is pulled out from the sleeve 101, the pressure rod 901 loses the downward pressure, and the piston disk 909 is driven to move upward through the elastic force of the compression spring 910, and the oil in the oil storage tank 905 is sucked through the oil extraction pipe 904, so that the oil enters the lower chamber.

[0076] In the above, the driving part performs the oil filling process, and the drive is provided by means of the installation and disassembly between the upper shell 2 and the lower shell 1.
