DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0022] The following embodiments of the technical solution of the utility model are described in detail in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. The following embodiments are only used to more clearly illustrate the technical solution of the utility model, and are therefore only used as examples and cannot be used to limit the protection scope of the utility model.

[0023] It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the technical terms or scientific terms used in this application should have the common meanings understood by technicians in the field to which the utility model belongs.

[0024] The aviation plug structure of the utility model embodiment is as follows Figures 1 to 5As shown, it includes a wiring side housing 1 for connecting a cable 7 and a socket side housing 2 connected to the wiring side housing 1. The wiring side housing 1 and the socket side housing 2 can be made into one piece or fixedly connected by assembly to form a plug shell; the wiring side housing 1 and the socket side housing 2 form a mounting cavity inside, and a plug terminal 3 and an insulating inner sleeve 4 with a plurality of terminal insertion holes 41 are arranged in the mounting cavity. The insulating inner sleeve 4 is fixed inside the plug shell, and the plug terminal 3 includes a wiring terminal 31 and a plug terminal 32 connected to the wiring terminal 31. The side periphery of the plug terminal 32 is provided with a power connection surface 33, and an insulating inner sleeve 4 is fixed on the top of the plug terminal 32. The insulating seed 5 is made of insulating material; the plug-in terminal 3 is connected to the wire 71 on the cable 7 through the wiring terminal 31, and the plug-in terminal 32 is inserted into the terminal jack 41. A gap is provided between the power contact surface 33 and the hole wall of the terminal jack 41, and the female terminal on the aviation socket is inserted into the gap. When the aviation plug and the aviation socket are mated, the circuit is connected through the contact between the female terminal and the power contact surface 33; since the insulating seed 5 is provided at the top of the plug-in terminal 32, the insulating seed 5 plays a blocking role at the outer port of the terminal jack 41, which can prevent the finger from contacting the top of the plug-in terminal 32 during operation, thereby enhancing the safety protection performance.

[0025] Specifically, the insulating seed 5 can be fixed on the plug-in end 32 by injection molding, clamping, gluing, hot riveting, etc.

[0026] like Figure 5 As shown, the insulating seed 5 includes an outer stopper 51 and a connecting portion 52 connected to the outer stopper 51. A connecting hole 34 is provided at the top of the plug-in end 32. The connecting portion 52 is fixed in the connecting hole 34. The outer stopper 51 protrudes from the top of the plug-in end 32. The outer stopper 51 protruding outward can play a shielding and protective role. The connecting portion 52 extends into the connecting hole 34 to achieve fixed connection between the insulating seed 5 and the plug-in end 32.

[0027] Further reading Figure 5 In order to enhance the connection strength between the connection portion 52 and the connection hole 34, a plurality of annular protrusions 53 are provided on the outer peripheral surface of the connection portion 52, and a plurality of annular grooves 35 adapted to the annular protrusions 53 are formed on the hole wall of the connection hole 34. The annular grooves 35 cooperate with the annular protrusions 53 to enhance the bonding force between the connection portion 52 and the connection hole 34, thereby enhancing the reliability of the installation of the insulating seed 5 on the plug-in end 32.

[0028] like Figure 3As shown, in order to reliably fix the plug-in terminal 3, a terminal positioning seat 6 is also fixed in the installation cavity, the terminal positioning seat 6 is connected to the insulating inner sleeve 4, and the plug-in terminal 3 is positioned and connected to the terminal positioning seat 6 through a positioning structure; during assembly, the plug-in terminal 3 is first connected to the wire 71, and then the plug-in terminal 3 is positioned on the terminal positioning seat 6 through the positioning structure, and then the terminal positioning seat 6 is fixed inside the installation cavity.

[0029] This embodiment provides a specific implementation scheme of a positioning structure: Figure 3 As shown, the positioning structure includes a positioning column 61 which is integrally provided on the terminal positioning seat 6 and protrudes into the terminal insertion hole 41, the positioning column 61 has a terminal insertion cavity 62 which passes through it along its axial direction, and a clamping block 63 is provided on the inner wall of the terminal insertion cavity 62, and a clamping groove 36 adapted to the clamping block 63 is formed on the wiring terminal 31, the wiring terminal 31 is inserted into the terminal insertion cavity 62 and clamped with the clamping groove 36 through the clamping block 63, thereby constituting the clamping positioning of the plug-in terminal 3 on the terminal positioning seat 6, and when assembling, the plug-in terminal 3 is inserted into the terminal insertion cavity 62 along the axial direction, and the plug-in terminal 3 is positioned by the terminal insertion cavity 62 to prevent it from swinging, and further combined with the clamping cooperation formed by the clamping block 63 and the clamping groove 36, the plug-in terminal 3 is effectively positioned.

[0030] Continue to view Figure 3 In order to facilitate the insertion of the terminal 31 into the terminal insertion cavity 62, a plurality of dividing grooves 64 extending from the cavity opening of the terminal insertion cavity 62 toward the cavity bottom are opened on the cavity wall of the terminal insertion cavity 62. The cavity wall of the terminal insertion cavity 62 and the associated clamping block 63 are divided into a plurality of elastic claw structures 65 through the plurality of dividing grooves 64. Since the elastic claw structure 65 has a certain elasticity, the elastic claw structure 65 can be deformed appropriately during the process of inserting the terminal 31 into the terminal insertion cavity 62, and the clamping block 63 is clamped into the clamping groove 36 when the plug-in terminal 3 is installed in place. The assembly process is relatively labor-saving and can improve the convenience of assembly; and since the positioning column 61 extends into the terminal insertion hole 41, the hole wall of the terminal insertion hole 41 can play a role of resisting and limiting the elastic claw structure 65 from the outer periphery of the positioning column 61, so as to prevent the elastic claw structure 65 from expanding and deforming outwards and affecting the cooperation between the clamping block 63 and the clamping groove 36, thereby ensuring the positioning effect of the plug-in terminal 3.

[0031] In order to further strengthen the positioning of the plug-in terminal 3 on the terminal positioning seat 6, a resistance surface 1 facing the terminal positioning seat 6 is provided in the terminal socket 41, and a resistance surface 2 37 that resists and cooperates with the resistance surface 1 is provided on the plug-in terminal 3. The positioning of the plug-in terminal 3 can be strengthened through the resistance cooperation between the resistance surface 2 37 and the resistance surface 1.

[0032] Preferably, the insulating seed 5 is in the terminal jack 41; and the outer diameter of the outer stopper 51 is smaller than the outer diameter of the plug-in end 32 and the outer stopper 51 is a conical structure, so that when the plug-in end 32 of the plug-in terminal 3 is inserted into the female terminal of the aviation socket, the outer stopper 51 is avoided from causing interference, so that the plug-in process is smooth.

[0033] Obviously, the above embodiments of the present invention are merely examples for clearly explaining the present invention, and are not intended to limit the implementation methods of the present invention. For ordinary technicians in the relevant field, other different forms of changes or modifications can be made based on the above description. It is not necessary and impossible to list all the implementation methods here. However, these obvious changes or modifications derived from the essential spirit of the present invention still belong to the protection scope of the present invention.
