Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of network connectors, and particularly to a network connector with a function of maintaining stability after engagement. Background Art

[0002] With the rapid development of information technology, network connectors, as important components for information transmission, play an indispensable role among computers, communication devices, and various electronic devices. To ensure the stability and reliability of data transmission, the design of network connectors not only needs to consider efficient signal conduction capabilities but also ensure the firmness of physical connections. However, there are certain limitations in the design of existing network connectors.

[0003] Traditional network connectors usually adopt a mechanical clamping structure to reinforce the joint to prevent the connector from accidentally detaching or shifting during use. Although these reinforcement structures can improve the stability of the connector to a certain extent, some problems are exposed in actual applications. Especially in a high-frequency data transmission environment, the connector may accumulate heat due to the rapid exchange of current or signals, resulting in an increase in the connector temperature. According to the physical principle of thermal expansion and contraction, temperature changes can cause the expansion or contraction of materials, which may cause the originally tightly fitted joint to become loose or misaligned, resulting in poor contact and thus affecting the quality and stability of data transmission.

[0004] To solve the above problems, the present invention proposes a network connector with a function of maintaining stability after engagement. This network connector can automatically increase the pressure on the connector head when the temperature rises, and compensate for the influence of thermal expansion and contraction by applying additional pressure in a timely manner, thereby effectively maintaining the stability of the connection at both ends of the connector, avoiding poor contact, and ensuring the reliability and continuity of data transmission even under high-temperature working conditions. Summary of the Invention

[0005] In order to overcome the drawback that existing network connectors only lock the position with a clamping structure but cannot solve the problem of poor contact caused by thermal expansion and contraction of connector materials, the present invention provides a network connector with a function of maintaining stability after engagement. This network connector can automatically increase the pressure on the connector head when the temperature rises, and compensate for the influence of thermal expansion and contraction by applying additional pressure in a timely manner, thereby effectively maintaining the stability of the connection at both ends of the connector, avoiding poor contact, and ensuring the reliability and continuity of data transmission even under high-temperature working conditions.

[0006] The technical solution is as follows: A network connector with a function of maintaining stability after connection, including a plug. A plug is inserted into the mating interface. On one side of the mating interface where the plug is inserted, two longitudinally symmetric elastic cards are fixedly connected. The end of the elastic card away from the mating interface is a hook-like structure for clamping the plug for fixation. It also includes a heating rack sleeved on the mating interface. The heating rack is a hollow structure with ethyl ether liquid inside. On the top of the mating interface, two longitudinally symmetric rotating racks are rotatably connected. At the bottom end of the rotating rack, an expansion air block is fixedly connected. The expansion air block is located on the right side of the plug. An air delivery pipe is connected to the expansion air block, and the tail end of the air delivery pipe passes through the rotating rack and is connected to the heating rack. On the mating interface, there is a reinforcement component for reinforcing the elastic card, and a limiting component for limiting the rotating rack.

[0007] Further, the reinforcement component includes two longitudinally symmetric rotating rods rotatably connected to the mating interface. On the side of the rotating rod close to the elastic card, a elastic piece is fixedly connected. One end of the elastic piece away from the rotating rod is rotatably connected to the elastic card. At the end of the rotating rod away from the elastic piece, a matching frame is rotatably connected. A torsion spring is connected between the matching frame and the adjacent rotating rod. On both longitudinal sides of the mating interface, a top block is slidably connected. Inside the top block, a contact block is fixedly connected. When the plug is inserted into the mating interface, it is in pressing fit with the contact block.

[0008] Further, a convex plate is provided in the middle of the matching frame, and the top block is in pressing fit with the convex plate of the matching frame.

[0009] Further, the limiting component includes a first elastic rope connected to the rotating rod. On the top of the mating interface, two longitudinally symmetric first limiting blocks are slidably connected. The tail end of the first elastic rope is connected to the outside of the first limiting block. A second elastic rope is connected to the inside of the first limiting block, and the tail end of the second elastic rope is connected to the rotating rod. The elasticity of the second elastic rope is greater than that of the first elastic rope.

[0010] Further, a notch is opened on one side of the rotating rack close to the first limiting block, and the first limiting block is clamped into the notch to limit the rotating rack.

[0011] Further, it also includes a limiting component for preventing the rotation of the rotating rod. The limiting component includes a square block fixedly connected to the rotating rod. On both longitudinal sides of the mating interface, a fixed block is fixedly connected. Two elastic pieces are fixedly connected to the fixed block, and a second limiting block is fixedly connected between the bottom ends of the two elastic pieces. The second limiting block is in contact with the top end of the square block.

[0012] Further, it also includes a guiding component for guiding the plug. The guiding component includes a fixed shaft fixedly connected to both longitudinal sides of the mating interface, and a guiding wheel is rotatably connected to the fixed shaft.

[0013] The present invention has the following advantages: 1. After the plug is inserted into the mating interface, the elastic card resets to clamp the plug for fixation. During the use of the plug and the mating interface, the heat dissipated by the mating interface is transferred to the heat receiving frame. The rotating frame is heated, causing the ether to vaporize and expand. The gas enters the expansion air block through the air delivery pipe, and then the expansion air block expands to squeeze the plug. By applying additional pressure in a timely manner to compensate for the influence of thermal expansion and contraction, the stability of the connection at both ends of the connector is effectively maintained, avoiding poor contact, and ensuring the reliability and continuity of data transmission even under high-temperature working conditions.

[0014] 2. After the elastic card clamps the plug, the rotating rod drives the elastic piece to rotate into a horizontal state, which can limit the front-back swinging deformation of the elastic piece, and then limit the position of the elastic card to reinforce the elastic card to ensure the stability of the connection between the plug and the mating interface.

[0015] 3. After the plug is inserted into the mating interface, the rotating frame rotates downward to reset. The first limiting block slides backward and is clamped into the notch of the rotating frame, thereby restricting the rotating frame and preventing the rotating frame from rotating abnormally during the use of the device, causing the expansion air block to be unable to effectively apply pressure to the plug.

[0016] 4. After the rotating rod stops rotating, the second limiting block will be pressed against the square block under the action of the elastic rebound of the elastic piece, thereby limiting the rotating rod and preventing the abnormal rotation of the rotating rod from affecting the reinforcement effect of the elastic piece on the elastic card.

[0017] 5. When the plug is inserted into the mating interface, it will contact the guide wheel. The guide wheel reduces the friction between the plug and the mating interface, making it easier for the plug to be inserted into the mating interface. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

Specific Embodiment

[0031] The following further illustrates the technical solution with specific embodiments. It should be noted that: The words indicating directions such as up, down, left, and right in this text are only in terms of the positions of the shown structures in the corresponding drawings. The serial numbers assigned to the components in this text, for example: first, second, etc., are only used to distinguish the described objects and do not have any sequential or technical meanings. And as used in this application: connection, coupling, unless otherwise specified, both include direct and indirect connection (coupling).

[0032] Embodiment 1: A network connector having a function of maintaining stability after engagement, such as Figures 1 - 4As shown, it includes a plug 1, a docking port 11, elastic cards 12, a heat-receiving frame 13, a rotating frame 14, an air delivery pipe 15, an expanding air block 16, a reinforcement assembly, and a limiting assembly. The plug 1 is inserted into the docking port 11. Elastic cards 12 are fixedly connected to both the front and rear sides of the right part of the docking port 11. The right end of the elastic card 12 is in a hook shape for fixing the plug 1 by clamping. A heat-receiving frame 13 is sleeved on the docking port 11. The heat-receiving frame 13 is a hollow structure with ether liquid inside. Two symmetrically arranged rotating frames 14 are rotatably connected to the upper right part of the docking port 11. An expanding air block 16 is fixedly connected to the lower right part of the rotating frame 14. An air delivery pipe 15 is connected to the expanding air block 16, and the tail end of the air delivery pipe 15 passes through the rotating frame 14 and is connected to the heat-receiving frame 13. A reinforcement assembly for reinforcing the elastic card 12 is provided on the docking port 11, and a limiting assembly for limiting the rotating frame 14 is provided on the docking port 11.

[0033] When the plug 1 needs to be inserted into the docking port 11, the staff first controls the rotating frame 14 to rotate upward. After the rotating frame 14 rotates upward, the staff can control the plug 1 to move leftward and insert it into the docking port 11. When the plug 1 moves leftward and inserts into the docking port 11, it will squeeze the right end of the elastic card 12 to deform outward. When the plug 1 is completely inserted into the docking port 11, the elastic card 12 will reset and clamp the plug 1. Then the staff controls the rotating frame 14 to rotate downward and reset. During the use of the plug 1 and the docking port 11, the heat dissipated by the docking port 11 is transferred to the heat-receiving frame 13. The rotating frame 14 is heated, causing the ether to vaporize and expand. The gas enters the expanding air block 16 through the air delivery pipe 15, causing the expanding air block 16 to expand. When the expanding air block 16 expands, since the rotating frame 14 restricts the right side of the expanding air block 16, the expanding air block 16 will expand and squeeze the plug 1 to the left. By applying additional pressure in a timely manner to compensate for the influence of thermal expansion and contraction, the stability of the connection at both ends of the connector can be effectively maintained, avoiding poor contact, and ensuring the reliability and continuity of data transmission even under high-temperature working conditions. When the plug 1 needs to be pulled out, the staff manually controls the right end of the elastic card 12 to deform outward to release the plug 1.

[0034] Such as Figure 1 , Figure 5 , Figure 6 and Figure 7As shown in the figure, the reinforcement component includes a spring piece 2, a rotating rod 21, a torsion spring 22, a mating frame 23, a top block 24 and a contact block 25. Rotating rods 21 are rotatably connected to the front and rear sides of the right part of the docking port 11. A spring piece 2 is fixedly connected to the right side of the rotating rod 21. The right part of the spring piece 2 is rotatably connected to the right part of the elastic card 12. The left part of the rotating rod 21 is rotatably connected to a mating frame 23. A torsion spring 22 is connected between the mating frame 23 and the adjacent rotating rod 21. Top blocks 24 are slidably connected to the front and rear sides of the docking port 11. A convex plate is provided in the middle of the mating frame 23. The top block 24 is in pressing fit with the convex plate of the mating frame 23. A contact block 25 is fixedly connected to the inner side of the top block 24. When the plug 1 is inserted into the docking port 11 to the left, it is in pressing fit with the contact block 25.

[0035] In the initial state, the spring piece 2 is in an upright state. When the plug 1 moves to the left and is inserted into the docking port 11, the right end of the elastic card 12 deforming outward will also drive the right end of the spring piece 2 to deform outward (i.e., deform forward or backward). When the plug 1 moves to the left until it contacts the contact block 25, if the plug 1 continues to move to the left, it will squeeze the contact block 25 to move outward. The contact block 25 moving outward drives the top block 24 to slide outward. The top block 24 sliding outward squeezes the convex plate on the rotating rod 21. Here, taking Figure 7 as an example, the top block 24 squeezes the convex plate to control the mating frame 23 to rotate clockwise. At this time, since the spring piece 2 is in an upright state and has already deformed, the spring piece 2 and the rotating rod 21 cannot rotate. The clockwise rotation of the mating frame 23 will cause the torsion spring 22 to deform. When the plug 1 is completely inserted into the docking port 11, the elastic card 12 and the spring piece 2 will reset. At this time, under the action of the torsion spring 22 resetting, the rotating rod 21 drives the spring piece 2 to rotate clockwise. After the spring piece 2 rotates clockwise, it is in a horizontal state. The spring piece 2 in the horizontal state cannot deform in the front and rear directions, thereby restricting the position of the elastic card 12 and reinforcing the elastic card 12 to ensure the stability of the connection between the plug 1 and the docking port 11. When it is necessary to pull out the plug 1, the staff manually controls the rotating rod 21 to rotate counterclockwise to rotate the spring piece 2 into an upright state so that the elastic card 12 can deform to release the plug 1.

[0036] As Figure 1 、 Figure 8 and Figure 9 shown in the figure, the limiting component includes a first elastic rope 3, a first limiting block 31 and a second elastic rope 32. A first elastic rope 3 is connected to the rotating rod 21. First limiting blocks 31 that are symmetric in the front and rear are slidably connected to the upper side of the docking port 11. A notch is opened in the left part of the rotating frame 14. The first limiting block 31 is snapped into the notch to limit the rotating frame 14. The upper end of the first elastic rope 3 is connected to the outer side of the first limiting block 31. A second elastic rope 32 is connected to the inner side of the first limiting block 31. The tail end of the second elastic rope 32 is connected to the rotating rod 21. The elastic force of the second elastic rope 32 is greater than that of the first elastic rope 3.

[0037] Before the control plug 1 is inserted into the docking interface 11, the staff will first control the rotating frame 14 to rotate upward. Here, taking Figure 9 as an example, after the rotating frame 14 rotates upward, the notch of the rotating frame 14 faces forward. When the plug 1 is completely inserted into the docking interface 11, the rotating rod 21 rotates clockwise to wind up the second elastic cord 32. At this time, since the rotating frame 14 faces forward, the first limiting block 31 cannot slide backward and be stuck in the notch of the rotating frame 14. Therefore, the rotating rod 21 winding up the second elastic cord 32 will stretch it. When the staff controls the rotating frame 14 to rotate downward and reset, the notch of the rotating frame 14 faces upward. Under the action of the reset of the second elastic cord 32, the first limiting block 31 will be pulled by the second elastic cord 32 to slide backward and be stuck in the notch of the rotating frame 14, thereby restricting the rotating frame 14 and preventing the rotating frame 14 from rotating abnormally during the use of the device, which may cause the expansion air block 16 to be unable to effectively apply pressure to the plug 1. When the first limiting block 31 slides backward, the first elastic cord 3 is stretched. When the plug 1 needs to be pulled out, the rotating rod 21 rotates counterclockwise to loosen the second elastic cord 32. Under the action of the reset of the first elastic cord 3, the first elastic cord 3 will pull the first limiting block 31 to slide forward and release the rotating frame 14.

[0038] Embodiment 2: On the basis of Embodiment 1, as Figure 1 、 Figure 10 and Figure 11 shown, it further includes a limiting component for preventing the rotating rod 21 from rotating. The limiting component includes a square block 4, a fixed block 41, an elastic sheet 42 and a second limiting block 43. A square block 4 is fixedly connected to the left part of the rotating rod 21. Fixed blocks 41 are fixedly connected to the front and rear sides of the right part of the docking interface 11. Two elastic sheets 42 are fixedly connected to the fixed block 41. A second limiting block 43 is fixedly connected between the lower sides of the two elastic sheets 42. The second limiting block 43 is in contact with the upper side of the square block 4.

[0039] When using this device, the rotation of the rotating rod 21 will drive the square block 4 to rotate. When the square block 4 rotates, it will squeeze the second limiting block 43 to slide upward. Under the action of the expansion and contraction of the elastic sheet 42, the up and down movement of the second limiting block will not affect the normal rotation of the rotating rod 21 and the square block 4. When the rotating rod 21 stops rotating, the second limiting block 43 will be in close contact with the square block 4 under the action of the rebound of the elastic sheet 42, thereby limiting the rotating rod 21 and preventing the abnormal rotation of the rotating rod 21 from affecting the reinforcement effect of the elastic piece 2 on the elastic card 12.

[0040] As Figure 1 and Figure 12 shown, it further includes a guiding component for guiding the plug 1. The guiding component includes a guiding wheel 5 and a fixed shaft 51. Two upper and lower fixed shafts 51 are fixedly connected to the front and rear sides of the right part of the docking interface 11. The guiding wheel 5 is rotatably connected to the fixed shaft 51.

[0041] When the plug 1 is inserted into the mating interface 11, the plug 1 will contact the guide wheel 5, thereby driving the guide wheel 5 to rotate on the fixed shaft 51. The rotation of the guide wheel 5 can guide the plug 1 and at the same time reduce the frictional force between the plug 1 and the mating interface 11, making it easier for the plug 1 to be inserted into the mating interface 11.

[0042] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention rather than to limit the protection scope of the present invention. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the preferred embodiments, those of ordinary skill in the art should understand that the technical solutions of the present invention can be modified or equivalently replaced without departing from the essence and scope of the technical solutions of the present invention.
