The design of the connector's anti-rotation cavity 213, rotation limit buckle 211 and anti-rotation pin 212 allows the connector to be flexible in operation when in use. The user can easily insert or remove the plug keycap 2 from the connector, and fix it by rotating the limit buckle 211 and inserting the anti-rotation pin 212. Such a design facilitates the installation and removal of the connector, and improves the convenience and efficiency of operation. The non-rotatable design can prevent misoperation of the connector due to rotation during use. At the same time, the stable fixing method can ensure the stability of the connector and reduce the risk of loose connection or falling off. Such a design improves the safety of the connector and reduces the probability of accidents.
[0057] like Figures 1 to 13As shown, an energy storage connector assembly includes the non-rotatable plug-in energy storage connector 10, and also includes a socket connector 20, one end of which is inserted into the plug-in cavity 13 and connected to the plug keycap 2. By inserting one end of the socket connector 20 into the plug-in cavity 13 of the non-rotatable plug-in energy storage connector and connecting it to the plug keycap 2, the complementary connection of the two connectors is achieved. Such a design can easily combine the two connectors together to form a complete connection system. Avoid misoperation or cable kinking caused by rotation of the connector during use. The rotation limit buckle 211 is clamped on the rotation limit platform 151, and the anti-rotation pin 212 is inserted into the anti-rotation slot 152, so that the anti-rotation connection end 21 is firmly connected. The connector assembly can maintain a good electrical connection during use, and will not be disconnected or cause poor connection due to rotation. The socket connector 20 is tightly connected to the plug-in cavity 13 of the non-rotatable plug-in energy storage connector 10, which enhances the stability of the connection. Such a design can reduce the loosening or disconnection of the connector due to external force or vibration during operation, and improve the reliability and stability of the connection.

The socket housing 5 is composed of a connecting plug 51, a fixing panel 52 and a fixing seat 53, and the structure between the connecting plug 51 and the fixing seat 53 is compact. Such a design makes the installation and maintenance of the connector more convenient, reducing the complexity and time cost of the operation.
[0059] The port of the connecting plug 51 is provided with an insertion guide inclined surface 513 and a limiting groove 514 on the periphery; a clamping buckle 112 is provided on one side of the plug-in portion 11 for cooperating with the limiting groove 514 to limit the connecting plug 51 in the plug-in portion 11; a pressing portion 113 is provided at one end of the clamping buckle 112 for pressing and opening the clamping buckle 112. In this embodiment, the insertion guide inclined surface 513 can guide the connecting plug 51 to be correctly inserted into the plug-in portion 11 and ensure the correct alignment between the plug and the plug-in portion 11. Such a design simplifies the insertion process of the plug and reduces the risk of misalignment or damage that may occur during insertion. The matching design of the limiting groove 514 and the clamping buckle 112 can limit the position of the connecting plug 51 in the plug-in portion 11. The clamping buckle 112 ensures the firm fixation of the connecting plug 51 by cooperating with the limiting groove 514 to prevent it from loosening or falling off. One end of the clamping buckle 112 is provided with a pressing portion 113, which can be pressed to open the clamping buckle 112. Such a design makes the installation and removal of the connecting plug 51 more convenient, and improves the convenience of operation.
[0060] The plug-in end 22 is provided with a plurality of plug-in positioning grooves 221, which are evenly distributed in an annular direction at the port of the plug-in end 22, and the plug-in positioning pin 512 can be inserted into any one of the plug-in positioning grooves 221 according to the radial angle of the required plug-in; in this embodiment, through the combined design of the plug-in positioning grooves 221 and the plug-in positioning pins 512, the connector can achieve flexible plug-in. The annular uniform distribution of the plug-in positioning grooves 221 provides multiple positions for selecting angles for plug-in, and the insertion of the plug-in positioning pins 512 can select any one of the plug-in positioning grooves 221 for fixing according to the requirements. Such a design enables the connector to adapt to different plug-in requirements and improves the flexibility and applicability of the connection. The combination of the plug-in positioning grooves 221 and the plug-in positioning pins 512 can achieve accurate plug-in positioning. By selecting a suitable combination of the plug-in positioning grooves 221 and the plug-in positioning pins 512, the connector can ensure that the plug keycap 2 or the connector is accurately positioned and aligned during the plug-in process to avoid poor plug-in or misalignment. Such a design improves the accuracy and stability of the connection. The use of the plug positioning groove 221 and the plug positioning pin 512 can enhance the stability of the connection. By selecting appropriate plug positioning grooves 221 and plug positioning pins 512 for fixing, the connector can effectively prevent the plug keycap 2 or the connector from rotating or loosening during use, thereby improving the stability and reliability of the connection.
[0061] A stop plug platform 131 is provided at one end of the plug-in cavity 13 for stopping the plug-in of the connecting plug 51. In this embodiment, when the connecting plug 51 is inserted into the plug-in cavity 13, its stop plug portion will cooperate with the stop plug platform 131 to realize the stop plug function of the connecting plug 51. Such a design ensures the stable fixation of the plug in the plug-in cavity 13. Through the setting of the stop plug platform 131, the connecting plug 51 can be firmly fixed in the plug-in cavity 13, providing reliable electrical connection and mechanical support.
[0062] The connection plug 51, the fixing panel 52 and the fixing seat 53 are integrally molded. In this embodiment, they are manufactured by integral injection molding, so the connection is more secure and has higher strength and stability. Integral injection molding can reduce material waste because it can complete the manufacture of multiple parts in a single injection molding process, avoiding additional processing and assembly steps.
[0063] A mounting seal ring 521 is provided on one side of the fixed panel 52, and a fixed mounting hole 522 is provided on the fixed panel 52 for passing screws to fix and install the fixed panel 52. In this embodiment, the mounting seal ring 521 is an annular sealing element, usually made of materials such as rubber or silicone. It is installed on one side of the fixed panel 52 to provide a sealing effect to prevent dust, moisture or other impurities from entering the interior of the connector or device, thereby protecting the performance and reliability of the connector or device. By passing the screws through the fixed mounting hole 522 and tightening them, the fixed panel 52 can be firmly fixed at the position where it needs to be installed. Such a design makes the installation of the fixed panel 52 more convenient and quick, and can provide a stable fixing effect.
[0064] The fixing seat 53 is provided with a floating groove 531 for forming a clearance gap at the installation position of the second power contact element 6. The floating groove 531 provides the second power contact element 6 with a certain floating force when plugged in, thereby ensuring the plugging accuracy and plugging guidance.
