[0029] See also Figure 1~Figure 3 This embodiment provides a plug-in inflation device 300 for inflating and deflation of an airbag. The inflation device 300 includes a housing 301 and a male connector 310 externally disposed on the housing 301, and a female connector 320 and an air pump 330 are disposed inside the housing 301. One end of the male connector 310 is connected to the airbag, and the other end is plugged and matched with the female connector 320 to connect the airbag and the air pump 330.

[0030] In this embodiment, the female connector 320 is provided with one or more guide channels 321 that penetrate from front to back, and the guide channels 321 are connected to the air pump 330 through an inner conduit (not shown). Specifically, the guide channel 321 protrudes outward from one side of the male connector 310 to form a first connecting terminal 322, and the first connecting terminal 322 is used to connect to the inner conduit. Furthermore, a conical flange 323 is provided around the end of the first connecting terminal 322. The bottom surface of the conical flange 323 forms a step shape with the side wall of the first connecting terminal 322. Through this arrangement, the first connecting terminal 322 can be more firmly clamped in the inner conduit to avoid falling off during airflow delivery. The number of guide channels 321 can be determined according to the number of airbags, for example, set to 1, 3, 4, etc., and the present disclosure does not impose specific restrictions.

[0031] Furthermore, one or more connection holes 324 are provided on the female connector 320 , and the female connector 320 is locked and fixed in the housing 301 by fasteners such as screws cooperating with the connection holes 324 .

[0032] In this embodiment, the housing 301 is provided with a first opening 302 adapted to the flow guiding channel 321. The male connector 310 is provided with one or more tracheal connectors 311, one end of which passes through the first opening 302 and is plugged into the flow guiding channel 321 one by one. The other end of the tracheal connector 311 is used to be connected to the airbag through the outer conduit 360, so that the outer conduit 360 is connected to the inner conduit, thereby realizing the conduction between the airbag and the air pump 330.

[0033] In order to ensure the sealing of gas transmission, the trachea connector 311 of the male connector 310 and the guide channel 321 are sealed and plugged together through the seal 350. Specifically, the seal 350 includes a sealing plate 351 and a plug 352 protruding from the sealing plate 351. The plug 352 protrudes toward the direction of the female connector 320, and is penetrated at both ends. There are one or more plugs 352, and they are inserted into the guide channel 321 one by one. The end of the trachea connector 311 is inserted into the plug 352, so that the gap between the trachea connector 311 and the guide channel 321 is closed by the seal 350. The seal 350 is an integrated structure, and the material of the seal 350 can be, for example, silicone or rubber, to ensure a good sealing effect.

[0034] Furthermore, the housing 301 is recessed on one side facing the male connector 310 to form a socket 340, the first opening 302 is provided in the socket 340, and the end of the male connector 310 is inserted into the socket 340. Specifically, the outline of the socket 340 is substantially consistent with the outline of the end of the male connector 310. By inserting the male connector 310 into the socket 340, the inner wall of the socket 340 forms a limit block to the peripheral side of the male connector 310, so as to effectively improve the connection stability of the plug-in structure.

[0035] Further, in this embodiment, the male connector 310 is provided with an elastic clamping member 314, and the socket 340 is provided with a clamping groove 341 that cooperates with the elastic clamping member 314, so that the male connector 310 is clamped and fixed with the housing 301. Specifically, the elastic clamping member 314 includes a clamping hook respectively arranged on both sides of the male connector 310. The clamping hook is clamped with the clamping groove 341, and a side of the clamping hook away from the clamping groove 341 forms an escape space. When the clamping hook is subjected to pressure, it can be deformed, thereby separating from the clamping groove 341, and releasing the locking state with the housing 301.

[0036] Further, in this embodiment, the trachea connector 311 has a second connection end 312 protruding toward the female connector 320 and a third connection end 313 protruding toward the outer conduit 360. The second connection end 312 is used to be inserted into the guide channel 321 of the female connector 320, and the third connection end 313 is used to be connected to the outer conduit 360.

[0037] Furthermore, in this embodiment, a guide slope 315 is provided at the end of the second connecting terminal 312 , and the guide slope 315 is substantially a conical surface. By providing the conical guide slope, the second connecting terminal 312 can be guided to be inserted into the guide channel 321 more smoothly.

[0038] Further, in this embodiment, a conical flange 316 is provided around the end of the third connection terminal 313. Similar to the first connection terminal 322, the bottom surface of the conical flange 316 and the side wall of the third connection terminal 313 form a step shape, through which the third connection terminal 313 can be more firmly clamped in the outer conduit 360.

[0039] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the male connector 310 is also provided with an identification probe 371, the female connector 320 is provided with an identification controller 372, and the housing 301 is provided with a second opening 303 for the identification probe 371 to pass through, and the identification probe 371 passes through the second opening 303 and is electrically connected to the identification controller 372. Specifically, a resistor is connected to the end of the identification probe 371, and the resistance value of the resistor is identified by the identification controller 372 to determine the specifications of the airbag connected to the male connector 310. The identified airbag specifications are sent to the control chip of the air pump, and the control chip inflates the airbag according to the preset inflation program. For example, if the identified resistance value is A, the corresponding inflation program is inflation for 10 minutes. If the identified resistance value is B, the corresponding inflation program is inflation for 5 minutes.

[0040] Furthermore, in this embodiment, a cover plate 317 is detachably connected to the upper side of the male connector 310, and a receiving space is formed in the cover plate 317, and the identification probe 371 is inserted in the receiving space. By removing the cover plate 317, the identification probe 371 can be replaced, so that the male connector 310 can be applied to airbags of different specifications. Specifically, the cover plate 317 can be connected to the male connector 310 by means of a snap fastener or screw fixation, for example.

[0041] See also Figure 4 The embodiment of the present disclosure also provides an artificial green 100, which includes an artificial terrain layer 110 and the above-mentioned plug-in inflation device 300. One or more air bags (not shown) are arranged in the artificial terrain layer 110. The air bags are connected to the trachea connector 311 of the male connector 310 through the external catheter 360. The male connector 310 is plugged into the female connector 320 to achieve the connection between the air bags and the inflation pump.
