[0028] See also Figure 1-5 The embodiment of the utility model provides a floating structure of a floating connector, including a fixed plate 1, a floating shell 2 and a floating spring 3. The fixed plate 1 is provided with a mounting port 11. The floating shell 2 is installed on the mounting port 11 of the fixed plate 1 and can float in any direction in the mounting port 11. The floating spring 3 is connected between the outer wall of the floating shell 2 and the fixed plate 1. The floating spring 3 has a first hook 31 and a second hook 32. The outer wall of the floating shell 2 is provided with a first hooking portion 221 that can be hooked with the first hook 31. The fixed plate 1 is provided with a second hooking portion 12 that can be hooked with the second hook 32.

[0029] The floating structure of the floating connector of the present application is used for the floating connector. When the floating connector is used, the fixing plate 1 can be fixedly installed on the corresponding component, such as a battery box or a battery compartment of an electric vehicle, and combined with Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the planes formed by the first hook 31 and the second hook 32 are perpendicular to each other, so that the second hooking portion 12 on the fixing plate 1 and the first hooking portion 221 of the floating housing 2 are easy to mold.

[0030] Furthermore, an extension plate 21 extending outward is provided on the outer wall of the floating shell 2, and there are two extension plates 21 located on the left and right sides of the outer wall of the floating shell 2. The lower end of the floating shell 2 extends out of the installation opening 11, and the extension plate 21 cooperates with the fixed plate 1 to prevent the floating shell 2 from escaping from the lower end of the fixed plate 1. The cross-sectional size of the floating shell 2 is smaller than the size of the installation opening 11 on the fixed plate 1, so that after the installation is completed, a floating gap is formed between the floating shell 2 and the inner wall of the installation opening 11, which can be displaced and moved in any direction. Ear plates 22 are provided on the extension plates 21, and two ear plates 22 are provided on each extension plate 21. The first hooking portion 221 is a fixing hole set on the ear plate 22, and the first hook 31 is hooked with the fixing hole. The fixing hole structure of the present application has a smaller space, which is convenient for fixing the floating spring 3.

[0031] Specific, combined Figure 2 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the second hooking portion 12 includes a fixed shaft 121 hooked with the second hook 32, and the fixed shaft 121 is provided with an anti-slip portion 122 for preventing the second hook 32 from falling off. By setting the anti-slip portion 122, the floating spring 3 can be effectively prevented from falling off from the fixed shaft 121 when the force is uneven, thereby ensuring the stability of the installation of the floating spring 3. The fixed shaft 12 and the anti-slip portion 122 are in an inverted L shape, and the fixed shaft 12 and the anti-slip portion 122 are made as one piece. A notch 13 is provided on the fixed plate 1 corresponding to the fixed shaft 12. It should be noted that the parts not described in detail in this application are all prior art.

[0032] In addition, the floating spring 3 is a tension spring, and the floating spring 3 is arranged on at least two opposite sides of the floating shell 2.

There are four floating springs 3 in total. After the four floating springs 3 are assembled, they are in a pre-stretched whole in the product. When the floating shell 2 is offset relative to the fixed plate, the unbalanced force on the four floating springs 3 makes the floating shell 2 have a centripetal return force, thereby realizing the automatic return function within the plane.

[0033] The present application has the advantages of simple structure, small size and low cost. By providing a first hooking portion 221 hooked with the first hook 31 and a second hooking portion 12 hooked with the second hook 32, the floating spring 3 is easy to assemble, thereby improving the assembly convenience of the product and reducing the size and cost of the connector.
