Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the field of connectors, in particular to a lockable low-current connector. Background Art
[0002] A connector generally refers to an electrical connector. That is, a device that connects two active devices, transmits current or signals, and the male end and the female end can transmit information or current after contact.
[0003] Most of the current connectors rely solely on plugging into each other to achieve connection. Although the plugging can be effective and fast, in actual use, they are prone to loosening and falling off after plugging, thereby affecting the normal transmission of current or signals.
[0004] For this reason, it is necessary to invent a lockable low-current connector. Summary of the invention
[0005] To this end, the utility model provides a lockable low-current connector to solve the problems in the background technology.
[0006] In order to achieve the above-mentioned object, the utility model provides the following technical solutions: a lockable low-current connector, comprising a plug and a socket that can be plugged into each other, wherein a locking mechanism is provided at the connection position of the top of the plug and the socket;
[0007] The locking mechanism includes an upper cover fixedly arranged on the top of the socket, a card slot is provided on the top of the upper cover, a button is embedded and installed inside the card slot, a card block 1 and limit blocks located on the front and rear sides of the card block 1 are provided at the bottom of the button, a slot is provided on the side of the upper cover close to the plug, and the locking mechanism also includes a plug-in block arranged on the top of the plug, the plug-in block is arranged corresponding to the slot, and a card block 2 is provided at the end of the plug-in block.
[0008] Preferably, a waterproof ring is provided on the outside of the plug, a plurality of male hardware are embedded inside the plug, and insulating caps are provided on the ends of the plurality of male hardware.
[0009] Preferably, a plurality of female hardware are embedded in the socket, and the plurality of female hardware respectively correspond to a plurality of male hardware.
[0010] Preferably, the top surface of the button is provided with anti-slip patterns.
[0011] The beneficial effects of the utility model are:
[0012] The utility model designs a locking mechanism at the connection between the plug and the socket. When in use, the male hardware of the plug is plugged into the female hardware of the socket in a one-to-one correspondence. At the same time, the plug-in block will extend into the slot of the upper cover, and the second clamping block will press against one side of the clamping block to form a clamping engagement, thereby further realizing a stable connection between the plug and the socket. When the clamping engagement needs to be released, the user presses the push button, and the limit blocks on both sides of the first clamping block will press the second clamping block down to separate it from the clamping engagement with the first clamping block, thereby realizing the release of the clamping engagement, thereby effectively improving the stability of the connection between the plug and the socket. In actual use, it is not easy to accidentally fall off, thereby ensuring the safe and stable transmission of current during use. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0021] The preferred embodiments of the present invention are described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the preferred embodiments described herein are only used to illustrate and explain the present invention, and are not used to limit the present invention.
[0022] Embodiment 1:
[0023] Refer to the attached Figure 1 -Attached Figure 3 The utility model provides a lockable low-current connector, comprising a plug 1 and a socket 2 that can be plugged into each other, and a locking mechanism is provided at the top connection position of the plug 1 and the socket 2;
[0024] The locking mechanism includes an upper cover 3 fixedly arranged on the top of the socket 2, a card slot 4 is provided on the top of the upper cover 3, a button 5 is embedded and installed inside the card slot 4, a card block 6 and limit blocks 7 located at the front and rear sides of the card block 6 are provided at the bottom of the button 5, a slot 8 is provided on the side of the upper cover 3 close to the plug 1, and the locking mechanism also includes a plug-in block 9 arranged on the top of the plug 1, the plug-in block 9 is arranged corresponding to the slot 8, and a card block 2 10 is provided at the end of the plug-in block 9;
