[0018] The utility model is further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings:
[0019] like Figures 1 to 2 As shown, a connector socket supporting blind plugging includes a plastic shell 1 and a connecting terminal 2. A plug-in cavity 11 is provided in the middle of the front end of the plastic shell 1. Multiple groups of connecting terminals 2 are arranged and inserted in the plastic shell 1. The front ends of the connecting terminals 2 correspond to the plug-in cavity 11. Multiple groups of guide bevels 12 are provided on the front edge of the plastic shell 1. The multiple groups of guide bevels 12 correspond to the outer periphery of the plug-in cavity 11, and the front ends of the guide bevels 12 are inclined toward the outside of the plug-in cavity 11.
[0020] By setting a guiding slope 12 at the front end of the plastic shell 1, when the user inserts the connector plug into the socket, there is no need to specifically check the specific position of the socket, nor to accurately align the plug with the plug cavity 11, so that blind insertion can be achieved, thereby improving the convenience and efficiency of connector plugging.
[0021] The plastic housing 1 comprises a plug-in base plate 13, a left guide housing 14 and a right guide housing 15. The left guide housing 14 and the right guide housing 15 are respectively fixed to the left and right ends of the front side of the plug-in base plate 13. The left guide housing 14 and the right guide housing 15 are both U-shaped and their openings are arranged facing each other. A gap is provided between the left guide housing 14 and the right guide housing 15. The front ends of the left guide housing 14 and the right guide housing 15 are both provided with guide slopes 12. The connecting terminals 2 are inserted into the plug-in base plate 13.
[0022] A gap is set between the left guide shell 14 and the right guide shell 15. When the plug is inserted, the end of the plug applies pressure to the guide slope 12, so that the front end of the left guide shell 14 or the right guide shell 15 is slightly deformed outward, thereby increasing the front end opening area of the plug-in cavity 11 and making it easier to insert the plug.
[0023] The plastic housing 1 is provided with anti-reverse insertion ribs 16 , and multiple groups of anti-reverse insertion ribs 16 are provided and fixed to the lower side of the left guide housing 14 and the lower side of the right guide housing 15 , respectively. The multiple groups of anti-reverse insertion ribs 16 correspond to the inside of the plug-in cavity 11 .
[0024] The plug is also provided with a groove matching the shape of the anti-reverse insertion rib 16. When the plug is inserted into the connector socket, the anti-reverse insertion rib 16 can prevent the plug from being reversely inserted.
[0025] The upper end of the plug-in base plate 13 is provided with a locking boss 17, which corresponds to between the left guide shell 14 and the right guide shell 15. The front and rear ends of the locking boss 17 are both inclined surfaces. The upper end of the front end surface of the locking boss 17 is inclined backward, and the upper end of the rear end surface of the locking boss 17 is inclined backward.
[0026] A locking rod is provided on the plug, and the buckle on the locking rod is buckled with the locking boss 17. The front end surface of the locking boss 17 guides the locking rod, so that the rear end of the locking rod is tilted upward and the buckle is smoothly buckled with the rear end surface of the locking boss 17. The rear end surface is provided with an inclined surface, which can make the buckle buckle more firmly and not easy to loosen.
[0027] The left and right sides of the plastic housing 1 are both provided with fixing slots 18, which are connected to the plug cavity 11. For some types of plugs, the fixing buckles are arranged on the left and right sides of the plug, and the fixing buckles are buckled in the fixing slots 18.
[0028] The rear end of the plug-in base plate 13 is provided with a plurality of strengthening ribs 131, which are arranged in the vertical direction, and each group of strengthening ribs 131 corresponds to between two groups of connecting terminals 2. The strengthening ribs 131 can improve the strength of the plug-in base plate 13, so that the connecting terminals 2 are fixed more firmly and are not easy to deviate.
[0029] The rear end of at least one group of connection terminals 2 is bent upward and extends backward, and the rear end of at least one group of connection terminals 2 is bent downward and extends backward. The rear end of the connection terminal 2 is designed to be bent in different directions in the forward and reverse directions, which can not only increase the damage strength of the product when it is obliquely inserted, but also increase the insulation distance of the PCB pad.
[0030] The above does not limit the technical scope of the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent changes and modifications made to the above embodiments based on the technical essence of the present invention are still within the scope of the technical solution of the present invention.
