In many equipment and cable connection parts, cable joints are used as cable fixing and protective parts, which can achieve the purpose of waterproofing, moisture-proofing and anti-rotation, and ultimately ensure the safety of equipment use. However, in the prior art, when the cable is connected, due to the influence of the installation space or other factors, the installation angle is large (not parallel to the axis of the joint), so that the cable is bent and twisted at a certain angle for a long time, which makes the cable have greater stress. The cable stress causes uneven force on one side of the seal in the joint, which makes the equipment very prone to water leakage. In addition, the cable is bent and twisted for a long time, and the outer sheath layer is also very easy to crack and break, which poses the risk of leakage and equipment short circuit.

[0029] The locking member 3 comprises two hemispheres 31, the circular surfaces of the two hemispheres 31 are fitted together to form a sphere, a concave cavity 32 is respectively arranged on the circular surface of the two hemispheres 31, the bottom of the two concave cavities 32 is respectively arranged with a first cable hole 33, and at least two positioning grooves 34 are arranged at intervals along the circumferential direction on the outer side wall of the hemispheres 31, and the positioning grooves 34 on the two hemispheres 31 correspond to each other one by one;
[0030] A second cable hole is provided at the center of the bottom of the claw core sleeve 2. The claw core sleeve 2 includes at least two claws 21 spaced apart in the circumferential direction. The lower parts of any two adjacent claws 21 are connected by a positioning rib 23. The inner wall of any positioning rib 23 protrudes from the inner wall of the claw 21 in the axial direction. A slide groove 24 is provided on the outer wall of any positioning rib 23. A gap 22 is provided between the upper parts of any two adjacent claws 21. The claw 21 is elastic, and the upper end of any claw 21 is retracted toward the axis.
[0031] The locking piece 3 is arranged in the claw core sleeve 2, the positioning ridges 23 are arranged one by one in the positioning grooves 34, the claw core sleeve 2 is arranged in the upper inner cavity of the joint body 5, and the steel balls 4 are arranged one by one in the slide grooves 24 of the claw core sleeve 2. The outer wall of the nut 1 is provided with a second external thread 12, and the lower part of the nut 1 is connected to the internal thread 51 of the joint body 5 through the second external thread 12.
[0032] Furthermore, the inner wall of the nut 1 is configured as a second concave cone surface 13 .
[0033] Furthermore, the outer diameter of the upper portion of the joint body 5 is greater than the outer diameter of the lower portion of the joint body 5 .
[0034] Furthermore, six first clamping surfaces 14 are evenly arranged on the outer wall of the nut 1 along the circumferential direction.
[0035] Furthermore, the joint body 5 is evenly provided with six second clamping surfaces 56 along the circumferential direction.
[0036] The first clamping surface 14 and the second clamping surface 56 facilitate clamping by a tool (such as an external hexagonal wrench, etc.).
[0037] Installation process:
[0038] Step 1: The sealing ring 6 is sleeved in the sealing groove 54 of the connector body 5 , all cables pass through the connector body 5 , and the connector body 5 is connected to the device housing through the first external thread 55 .
[0039] Step 2: a plurality of steel balls 4 are respectively placed into the blind holes 52 of the joint bodies 5 , and the steel balls 4 are exposed from the first concave cone surface 53 of the joint body 5 and can rotate freely.
[0040] Step 3: The cable passes through the second cable hole of the claw core sleeve 2, with the claw 21 facing upward.
[0041] Step 4: The two hemispheres 31 of the locking member 3 are combined into a sphere, the first cable holes 33 of the two hemispheres 31 are aligned, the cables pass through the first cable holes 33, and then align the positioning grooves 34 of the two hemispheres 31. The number of the first cable holes 33 can be set to one or more according to the number of cables.
[0042] Step 5: The locking piece 3 enters from the upper opening of the claw 21 of the claw core sleeve 2, and the positioning ridges 23 are embedded in the locking grooves 34 of the locking piece 3, and are aligned and aligned so that the claw core sleeve 2 is sleeved on the locking piece 3.
[0043] Step seven, the claw core sleeve 2 is installed into the upper inner cavity of the joint body 5, and the steel balls 4 enter into each positioning slide groove 24.
[0044] Step six, the front end of the cable passes through the nut 1, and the second external thread 12 of the nut 1 is locked with the internal thread 51 of the connector body 5, completing the installation of the connector.
[0045] After the cable is installed, the positioning ridge 23 is embedded in each locking groove 34 of the locking member 3, and the steel ball 4 enters each slide groove 24. The second concave cone 13 of the nut 1 squeezes the claw 21 of the claw core sleeve 2, and the claw 21 shrinks toward the center. The internal locking member 3 is squeezed and shrinks toward the center. The first cable hole 33 shrinks and squeezes the cable to ensure the seal between the locking member 3 and the cable, so that the cable, the locking member 3, and the claw core sleeve 2 are relatively fixed and locked. Because the steel ball 4 is located in the slide groove 24, the claw core sleeve 2, the locking member 3, and the cable cannot rotate around the circumferential direction of the connector body 1. However, the steel ball 4 can slide slightly along the extension direction of the slide groove 24, so that the claw core sleeve 2, the locking member 3, and the cable can rotate around the circumference of the connector body 1. Figure 2 Make a small turn (oscillate) in the direction of the arrow.
[0046] The cable, locking piece 3, and claw core sleeve 2 can swing, which can reduce the risk of failure of the seal due to uneven force caused by the cable bending angle being too small for a long time, protect the cable that swings back and forth, and keep the connection of the terminal firmly connected. The cable, locking piece 3, and claw core sleeve 2 cannot rotate, which can prevent the cable torque from being transmitted to the terminal post, causing the connection to become loose or damaged.
[0047] In industries such as robot arms, automated production lines, and charging piles, compared with traditional connectors, the advantages of cable locking, anti-rotation, and protection are particularly obvious, especially in cable locking conditions that often rotate and swing.
