[0049] Embodiment 1

[0050] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, Embodiment 1 provides a connector 100, which can be a male plug or a female plug, and a magnetic connection portion 104 is provided at the plug-in end face 101 of the connector 100. It should be noted that the plug-in end face 101 here refers to two surfaces that are parallel to each other and close to each other when the connector 100 is plugged in, generally the front end face of the connector 100, such as the plug-in end face 101 of the male plug is the end face where the pin is set, and the plug-in end face 101 of the female plug is the end face where the socket is set. The magnetic connection portion 104 itself has magnetism, that is, it can generally be made of magnet-like materials. The magnetic connection portion 104 is provided on the plug-in end face 101, mainly to provide guidance and support for the subsequent plug-in matching.

[0051] like Figure 2 As shown, as an equivalent form of the magnetic connection part 104, the magnetic connection part 104 can also be arranged on one side of the connector 100, mainly to ensure that when the magnetic connection part 104 generates mutual attraction, the direction of its attraction is consistent with the direction of insertion.

[0052] Specifically, when there is only one magnetic connection portion 104, it can be set at any position of the plug-in end face 101. In order to ensure a better positioning effect, it is best to set the magnetic connection portion 104 at the center of the plug-in end face 101 to ensure that the connector 100 is subjected to a balanced attraction.

[0053] When there are two magnetic connection parts 104, the two magnetic connection parts 104 are symmetrically arranged along the central axis of the socket body, and are also preferably arranged on the plugging end surface 101 of the socket body, and can also be arranged circumferentially of the plugging end surface 101 of the socket body.

[0054] Specifically, if the magnetic connection part 104 is a magnet, its shape can generally be set to be sheet-shaped, block-shaped or column-shaped. If the magnet is sheet-shaped, it can be directly attached to the plug-in end face 101 of the connector 100; if the magnet is block-shaped, a slot is provided on the plug-in end face 101 of the connector 100, and the magnet is clamped in the slot; if the magnet is column-shaped, it can be plugged into the plug-in end face 101 of the connector 100. Similarly, no matter whether the magnet is column-shaped, sheet-shaped or block-shaped, its fixing form can be one of the above three forms or a combination of the three forms.

[0055] Generally, in order to enhance the overall plug-in effect of the connector 100 during the plug-in process, different connection structures are required. Generally, a structure similar to a pin-and-socket is provided, and a key 102 is provided on the plug-in end face 101 of the socket body. The key 102 is mainly used to achieve a good positioning effect similar to the insertion of a pin into a socket during the subsequent plug-in process. As an alternative to the key 102, a slot 105 can also be provided on the plug-in end face 101 of the connector 100.

[0056] If the connector 100 is a male plug, pins need to be provided on its plug-in end face 101. In order to protect these pins, an annular side wall 103 is provided around the plug-in end face 101. The annular side wall 103 can better protect the pins and can fully embrace the female plug, thereby improving the installation stability of the connector, preventing loosening and reducing maintenance costs.

[0057] As another form, the annular side wall 103 can also be provided on the female plug, that is, the annular side wall 103 located on the female plug is only provided for connection, that is, when plugging, the annular side wall 103 can hold the male plug tightly.

[0058] Similarly, when the connector 100 has a key 102, the annular side wall 103 can simultaneously protect the key 102. In order to enhance the positioning accuracy of the key 102 and improve its own structural strength, preferably, the key 102 is integrally arranged on the inner wall of the annular side wall 103 to ensure the stability of the key 102 during use, thereby avoiding the loosening of the connector 102, which affects the use and increases the maintenance cost.
