Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of circular connector technology, specifically to a circular connector designed to prevent detachment. Background Technology
[0002] Circular connectors are devices that establish stable circuit connections between different electronic devices or cables. They are commonly used in industrial gateways, industrial internet gateways, and industrial smart gateways. They can prevent connections from loosening or falling off in harsh environments such as vibration and impact, and maintain the stability of connections between devices.
[0003] However, existing anti-detachment circular connectors have the following shortcomings:
[0004] In automated production lines such as automobile manufacturing and electronic equipment production, the robot arm frequently extends, rotates, and bends during its movement. This causes the cable connecting the robot and the gateway to generate torsional force. However, repeated torsion over a long period of time can cause the connection between the cable and the circular connector to gradually loosen, eventually leading to detachment and affecting the normal operation of the equipment and data transmission.
[0005] Therefore, we propose a new type of anti-detachment circular connector to solve the problems mentioned in the background art. Summary of the Invention

[0038] The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0039] Example 1: Please refer to Figures 1-15 As shown, the present invention provides a technical solution: a circular connector for preventing detachment, comprising a connector mechanism 1 and two cables 3. The connector mechanism 1 includes two connector caps 101, with a female connector 102 and a male connector 103 respectively fixed inside the openings at opposite ends of the two connector caps 101. A sealing ring 104 is provided inside the groove at the front end of the male connector 103. A positioning groove 105 is preset on the inner wall of the female connector 102, and a positioning block 106 is fixed on the inner wall of the male connector 103. The positioning groove 105 and the positioning block 106 are adapted to each other. A set of locking holes 107 is preset on the inner wall of the female connector 102, and a set of locking blocks 108 is fixed on the outer wall of the male connector 103. Each locking block 108 is respectively connected to each locking hole. The female seat 102 is fitted with a set of mounting grooves 109 on its outer wall. Each mounting groove 109 has a cylindrical groove 110 inside. Each mounting groove 109 has an L-shaped rod 111 inside. The snap-fit end of each L-shaped rod 111 passes through the inner wall of each mounting groove 109 and the outer surface of each L-shaped rod 111 in sequence. The snap-fit end of each L-shaped rod 111 is slidably embedded in the inner wall of each snap-fit hole 107. Each cylindrical groove 110 is movably fitted with a limiting rod 112. One end of each limiting rod 112 is fixed to the surface of each L-shaped rod 111. Each mounting groove 109 has a spring body inside. 113, each spring body 113 is movably sleeved on each limiting rod 112, one end of each spring body 113 is fixed to the surface of each L-shaped rod 111, and the other end of each spring body 113 is fixed to the inner wall of each mounting groove 109. Each round hole of the female seat 102 is provided with a female pin 114, and each round hole of the male seat 103 is provided with a male pin 115. Each female pin 114 is adapted to each male pin 115. The openings at opposite ends of the two connecting caps 101 are provided with sealing rings 116 and locking rings 117. The two cables 3 are movably sleeved inside the two sealing rings 116. Each locking ring 117... Ring 117 is movably fitted onto each sealing ring 116. Nuts 118 are installed on opposite ends of the two connecting caps 101. Each nut 118, corresponding locking ring 117, and corresponding sealing ring 116 are used to fix the corresponding cable 3 onto the corresponding connecting cap 101. The connector mechanism 1 is provided with an anti-torsion mechanism 2. The anti-torsion mechanism 2 includes two sets of side-opening rings 201, two sets of sliding grooves 209, two slots 215, and two support rods 216. An iron ring 202 is fixed between each set of side-opening rings 201. A perforated slider 203 is slidably connected between each set of side-opening rings 201. An arc-shaped electromagnet 204 is provided inside each perforated slider 203.
[0040] In this embodiment, when a circular connector is required, the two arc-shaped electromagnets 204 are first connected to the controller of the device requiring the circular connector (such as a robot in an automated production line for automobile manufacturing or electronic equipment production). Then, one of the nuts 118 is fitted onto one end of one of the cables 3. Next, the sealing ring 116 with a locking ring 117 is also fitted onto one end of one of the cables 3. Then, the multiple wires at one end of the cable 3 are connected to each female pin 114 installed on the female connector 102. Next, the sealing ring 116 with the locking ring 117 is moved into the corresponding connector cap 101. Finally, the nut 118 is threaded onto the corresponding connector cap 101, thus enabling the use of the connector cap 101 and the corresponding locking ring. The engagement of the tightening ring 117, the corresponding sealing ring 116, and the corresponding nut 118 secures the cable 3 tightly to the corresponding connecting cap 101. Then, repeating the above steps, connects multiple wires at one end of the other cable 3 to each male pin 115 on the male connector 103 and secures them to the corresponding connecting cap 101. Simultaneously, connects the other ends of both cables 3 to their respective equipment components. When one end of both cables 3 is secured, the anti-torsion mechanism 2 secures the two nuts 118. When the two nuts 118 are secured by the anti-torsion mechanism 2, the two connecting caps 101 are moved towards each other. The moving connecting caps 101 will then drive the male connector 103 with male pins 115 and the female connector 115 respectively. As the female connector 102 moves, the two moving connector caps 101 also move the corresponding sealing ring 116, locking ring 117, nut 118, one end of cable 3, and parts of the anti-torsion mechanism 2. Simultaneously, the moving male connector 103 moves all its locking blocks 108 and sealing rings 104. The moving female connector 102 also moves all spring bodies 113, all L-shaped rods 111, and all limit rods 112. When the female connector 102 and male connector 103 are about to align, the positioning groove 105 and positioning block 106 are used to adjust the alignment angle between them. Then, the male connector 103 aligns with the female connector 102. Move all the L-shaped rods 111. Each moving L-shaped rod 111 will cause the connected limiting rod 112 to move into the cylindrical groove 110. At the same time, the movement of each L-shaped rod 111 will also compress the corresponding spring body 113 in cooperation with the corresponding mounting groove 109. When the snap-fit ends of all the L-shaped rods 111 move out of the corresponding snap-fit holes 107, the female seat 102 and male seat 103 will then be engaged. When the female seat 102 and male seat 103 are engaged, each snap-fit block 108 will be engaged in the corresponding snap-fit hole 107. At the same time, the sealing ring 104 will be compressed and deformed, positioned between the female seat 102 and male seat 103. Simultaneously, each male pin 115 will also be engaged with the corresponding female pin 114.Then, the force applied to all L-shaped rods 111 is loosened. Each L-shaped rod 111 will then return to its original position under the combined effect of the rebound force of its corresponding cylindrical groove 110, mounting groove 109, and spring body 113. When all L-shaped rods 111 have returned to their original positions, the locking end of each L-shaped rod 111 passes through its corresponding locking block 108. Under the action of all L-shaped rods 111, each locking block 108 will be tightly locked inside its corresponding locking hole 107. Therefore, even if the assembled circular connector is subjected to vibration or impact, there will be no loosening between the female connector 102 and the male connector 103, or the male connector 103 falling off the female connector 102, thus ensuring the stability of the connection between the devices.
[0041] Example 2: According to Figures 1-3 , Figures 5-8 , Figures 10-13 and Figure 15As shown, the connector mechanism 1 is equipped with an anti-torsion mechanism 2, which is used to ensure a tight connection between the connector mechanism 1 and the two cables 3. The anti-torsion mechanism 2 includes two sets of side-opening rings 201, two sets of sliding grooves 209, two slots 215, and two support rods 216. An iron ring 202 is fixed between each set of side-opening rings 201, and a perforated slider 203 is slidably connected between each set of side-opening rings 201. Each perforated slider 203 has an arc-shaped electromagnet 204 inside. Each arc-shaped electromagnet 204, the corresponding iron ring 202, and the corresponding set of side-opening rings 201 are used to control whether the corresponding perforated slider 203 can slide. The inner wall of the opening at one end of each support rod 216 has two symmetrical mounting holes 211. Each of the two slides 211 has a T-shaped pull rod 213 and a return spring 212 inside. Each set of slides 209 has an auxiliary rod 210 inside. Each auxiliary rod 210 has a locking rod 214 fixed at one end near its bottom. Each T-shaped pull rod 213 is used to control whether the corresponding auxiliary rod 210 can move. Each support rod 216 is used to adjust the distance between the corresponding locking rod 214 and the corresponding perforated slider 203. The outer wall of each iron ring 202 is in contact with the magnetic end surface of each arc electromagnet 204. Each of the two perforated sliders 203 has a connecting block 205 inside its through hole. The bottom of each of the two connecting blocks 205 is fixed to the top of the two arc electromagnets 204. The bottom of each of the two support rods 216 has a rectangular groove 2. 06. T-shaped holes 207 are pre-set on the top of the inner walls of both rectangular grooves 206. The tops of two connecting blocks 205 are slidably connected to the inside of the two rectangular grooves 206. Rectangular blocks 208 are slidably connected inside the two T-shaped holes 207. The two rectangular blocks 208 are respectively installed on the tops of the two connecting blocks 205. Each set of sliding grooves 209 is pre-set on both sides of the inner wall of one end opening of each support rod 216. One end of each return spring 212 is fixed to the inner wall of each mounting hole 211, and the other end of each return spring 212 is fixed to the surface of each T-shaped pull rod 213. One end of each return spring 212 is movably sleeved on one end of each T-shaped pull rod 213. One end of each T-shaped pull rod 213 is respectively... The sliding rod 214 is slidably embedded on the surface of the corresponding auxiliary rod 210. The bottom end of each locking rod 214 is movably locked into the inside of each locking groove 215. One end of each support rod 216 moves through the surface of each perforated slider 203 and the inner wall of the through hole of each perforated slider 203 in sequence. A set of hand-tightening bolts 217 are threaded through the top of each perforated slider 203. The threaded end of each set of hand-tightening bolts 217 abuts against the top of the corresponding support rod 216. The connector mechanism 1 includes two connecting caps 101. A nut 118 is installed on the opposite end of each of the two connecting caps 101. Each set of side-opening rings 201 and each iron ring 202 are fixed on each connecting cap 101. The two locking grooves 215 are respectively preset on the outer wall of the two nuts 118.
[0042] In this embodiment, when one end of both cables 3 is fixed, one of the perforated sliders 203 is first moved between a set of side-opening rings 201. The moving perforated slider 203 will then drive the corresponding arc-shaped electromagnet 204, a set of hand-tightening bolts 217, a corresponding connecting block 205, a corresponding rectangular block 208, two corresponding T-shaped pull rods 213, two corresponding return springs 212, a corresponding auxiliary rod 210, and a corresponding locking rod 214 to move simultaneously. When the bottom center of the moving locking rod 214 moves to a straight line on the center of the corresponding slot 215, the control on the aforementioned equipment is then activated. The device activates the arc electromagnet 204, energizing it. The energized arc electromagnet 204 will then be firmly fixed to the iron ring 202, preventing the locking rod 214 from rotating around the corresponding connecting cap 101. Next, loosen the corresponding set of hand-tightening bolts 217. Then, move the corresponding support rod 216. With the assistance of the auxiliary rod 210, the moving support rod 216 will drive the locking rod 214 to move. When the locking rod 214 moves directly above the corresponding slot 215, stop moving the support rod 216. Then, tighten all the loosened hand-tightening bolts 217. Finally, move the corresponding support rod 216... One end of each of the two T-shaped tie rods 213 on the support rod 216 is removed from the corresponding auxiliary rod 210. At this time, each moving T-shaped tie rod 213, in cooperation with the corresponding mounting hole 211, stretches the corresponding return spring 212. Then, the auxiliary rod 210 moves inside the corresponding set of sliding grooves 209. Next, the auxiliary rod 210 drives the locking rod 214 to move. When the bottom end of the locking rod 214 moves into the slot 215 and cannot move further, the force applied to each T-shaped tie rod 213 is released, allowing each T-shaped tie rod 213 to cooperate with the rebound force of the corresponding return spring 212. When both T-shaped levers 213 are returned to their original positions, the corresponding auxiliary lever 210 is fixed, meaning the locking lever 214 can no longer move. Then, repeat the above steps to move the bottom of the other locking lever 214 into the corresponding slot 215 and fix the corresponding auxiliary lever 210. When the two nuts 118 are fixed by the anti-torsion mechanism 2, the connection between the cable 3 and the circular connector will not loosen due to the torsional force generated by the cable 3 during the robot's movement, thus ensuring the normal operation of the equipment and data transmission.
[0043] The overall effect and working principle of the mechanism are as follows:
[0044] In the preparation phase, first connect the two arc-shaped electromagnets 204 to the controller on the equipment that requires circular connectors (such as robots in automated production lines for automobile manufacturing and electronic equipment production). Then, put one of the nuts 118 on one end of one of the cables 3. Next, put the sealing ring 116 with the locking ring 117 on one end of one of the cables 3. Then, connect the multiple wires at one end of the cable 3 to each of the female pins 114 installed on the female connector 102. Finally, move the sealing ring 116 with the locking ring 117 to... Inside the corresponding connector 101, the nut 118 is then threaded onto the corresponding connector 101. By using the cooperation of the connector 101, the corresponding locking ring 117, the corresponding sealing ring 116, and the corresponding nut 118, the cable 3 is tightly fixed to the corresponding connector 101. Finally, the above operation steps are repeated to connect the multiple wires at one end of the other cable 3 to each male pin 115 on the male connector 103 and fix them to the corresponding connector 101. At the same time, the other ends of the two cables 3 are connected to the corresponding equipment components.
[0045] During the anti-torsion installation phase, when one end of both cables 3 is fixed, one of the perforated sliders 203 is moved between the corresponding set of side-opening rings 201. The moving perforated slider 203 will then drive the corresponding arc-shaped electromagnet 204, a set of hand-tightening bolts 217, the corresponding connecting block 205, the corresponding rectangular block 208, the corresponding two T-shaped pull rods 213, the corresponding two return springs 212, the corresponding auxiliary rod 210, and the corresponding locking rod 214 to move simultaneously. When the bottom center of the moving locking rod 214 moves to the corresponding... When the arc electromagnet 204 is aligned with the center of the slot 215, the controller on the aforementioned device is used to activate the arc electromagnet 204, energizing it. The energized arc electromagnet 204 will then be firmly fixed to the iron ring 202, preventing the locking rod 214 from rotating around the corresponding connecting cap 101. Next, the corresponding set of hand-tightening bolts 217 are loosened, and then the corresponding support rod 216 is moved. With the assistance of the auxiliary rod 210, the moving support rod 216 will drive the locking rod 214 to move. When the locking rod 214 moves to the corresponding slot... When the support rod 216 is directly above 215, stop moving it. Then tighten all the loosened hand-tightening bolts 217. Next, remove one end of each of the two T-shaped pull rods 213 on the corresponding support rod 216 from the corresponding auxiliary rod 210. At this time, each moving T-shaped pull rod 213 will stretch the corresponding return spring 212 in cooperation with the corresponding mounting hole 211. Then, move the auxiliary rod 210 inside the corresponding set of slide grooves 209. Then, the auxiliary rod 210 will drive the locking rod 214 to move. When the locking rod 214 moves... When the bottom end of 14 moves into the slot 215 and cannot move, the force applied to each T-shaped lever 213 is released, allowing each T-shaped lever 213 to return to its original position under the cooperation of the corresponding return spring 212. When both T-shaped levers 213 have returned to their original positions, the corresponding auxiliary rod 210 is fixed, meaning that the lever 214 can no longer move. Then, the above operation steps are repeated to move the bottom end of the other lever 214 into the corresponding slot 215 and fix the corresponding auxiliary rod 210.
[0046] During the docking phase, when the two nuts 118 are fixed by the anti-torsion mechanism 2, the two connecting caps 101 are moved towards each other. The moving connecting caps 101 will then move the male connector 103 with the male pin 115 and the female connector 102 with the female pin 114, respectively. Simultaneously, the moving connecting caps 101 will also move the corresponding sealing ring 116, the corresponding locking ring 117, the corresponding nut 118, one end of the corresponding cable 3, and the corresponding parts of the anti-torsion mechanism 2. At the same time, the moving male connector 103 will also move all the locking blocks 108 and sealing rings 104 on it, and the moving female connector 102 will also move all the spring bodies. 113. All L-shaped rods 111 and all limiting rods 112 move. When the female seat 102 and male seat 103 are about to align, the aligning angle of the female seat 102 and male seat 103 is adjusted by the cooperation of the positioning groove 105 and the positioning block 106. Then, the male seat 103 aligns with the female seat 102. Next, all L-shaped rods 111 move simultaneously. At this time, each moving L-shaped rod 111 will drive the connected limiting rod 112 to move into the cylindrical groove 110. At the same time, the movement of each L-shaped rod 111 will also compress the corresponding spring body 113 under the cooperation of the corresponding mounting groove 109. When the locking ends of all L-shaped rods 111 respectively move out of their corresponding... When the internal part of the locking hole 107 is removed, the female seat 102 and male seat 103 are then aligned. When the female seat 102 and male seat 103 are aligned, each locking block 108 is locked into the internal part of each locking hole 107. At the same time, the sealing ring 104 is also compressed and deformed, positioned between the female seat 102 and male seat 103. Simultaneously, each male pin 115 is aligned with its corresponding female pin 114. Then, the force applied to all L-shaped rods 111 is released. At this time, each L-shaped rod 111 will return to its original position under the cooperation of the rebound force of the corresponding cylindrical groove 110, the corresponding mounting groove 109, and the corresponding spring body 113. When all L-shaped rods 111 have returned to their original positions... When in position, the locking end of each L-shaped rod 111 passes through the corresponding locking block 108. Under the action of all L-shaped rods 111, each locking block 108 will be tightly locked inside the corresponding locking hole 107. At this time, even if the connected circular connector is subjected to vibration, impact, etc., there will be no loosening between the female connector 102 and the male connector 103, or the male connector 103 will fall off the female connector 102, thus ensuring the stability of the connection between the devices. At the same time, under the action of the anti-torsion mechanism 2, the connection between the cable 3 and the circular connector will not be loosened due to the torsional force generated by the cable 3 when the robot moves, thus ensuring the normal operation of the equipment and data transmission.
