[0028] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, not all of the embodiments. The following description of at least one exemplary embodiment is actually only illustrative and is by no means intended to limit the present application and its application or use. Embodiment 1

[0029] Reference Figure 1 The present embodiment provides a waterproof socket with an elastic mounting portion, which includes a socket housing 1, a seal 2 and a mounting panel 4. The seal 2 is circumferentially fixed on the socket housing 1, and a terminal 3 is provided in the cavity of the socket housing 1; an elastic fixing component is provided on the socket housing 1, and the bottom of the socket housing 1 passes through a through hole on the mounting panel 4. The fixing component elastically releases and fixes the socket housing 1, and the socket housing 1 is fixed to the mounting panel 4 so that the seal 2 is pressurized to seal the sealing area between the mounting panel 4 and the socket housing 1.

[0030] During production, a harder rubber block is used for the fixing component. After the rubber block is exposed from the through hole, it will restore its deformation to limit and fix the socket housing 1. At this time, the seal 2 is squeezed with the edge of the through hole, which not only achieves the sealing effect but also plays a limiting role. The design is simple and the installation is efficient.

[0031] The arrangement of the sealing member 2 in this embodiment affects its service life. When a rubber block is used as the fixing component, there is a large friction between the rubber block and the through hole, which inadvertently increases the difficulty of installation.

[0032] Observation attachment Figure 2 In this embodiment, the fixing component can also use other structures, which include multiple elastic parts 102. Here, the elastic parts 102 are of two types, one is a first elastic member and the other is a second elastic member. In this embodiment, the two first elastic members are arranged on the two outer walls in the length direction of the bottom end of the socket housing 1, and the two second elastic members are arranged on the two outer walls in the width direction of the bottom end of the socket housing 1.

[0033] The number of the first elastic member and the second elastic member is not limited to two, and can be set to an even number. Multiple first elastic members are evenly fixed on the two outer side walls in the length direction of the bottom end of the socket housing 1, and multiple second elastic members are evenly fixed on the two outer side walls in the width direction of the bottom end of the socket housing 1. The uniform arrangement of the two elastic members can effectively ensure the stability during fixation.

[0034] Observation attachment Figure 1 and 2 In this embodiment, a guide structure is provided. When installing the socket, the relative position of the terminal 3 needs to be determined to avoid the socket housing 1 being installed upside down, which will lead to subsequent rework and unnecessary installation man-hours. A guide member 104 is provided on the outer wall at the bottom end of the socket housing 1, and a guide opening 402 is provided on the inner wall of the through hole of the mounting panel 4. When the socket housing 1 is fixed, the guide member 104 moves and cooperates with the guide opening 402 to ensure that the socket is accurately fixed and used.

[0035] Reference Figure 2 In this embodiment, a pair of flanges 106 are axially spaced and vertically extended on the outer periphery of the socket housing 1; a groove 101 is formed between the two flanges 106 and the socket housing 1, and the groove 101 is used for installing and accommodating the seal 2. After installation, the edge of the seal 2 axially exposes the groove 101, so that when the socket housing 1 and the installation panel 4 are matched, extrusion is generated between the seal 2 and the through hole of the socket housing 1, which naturally improves the sealing performance.

[0036] In order to further improve the overall installation sealing performance of the socket, the designers continued to observe the surrounding Figure 1 In this embodiment, a mounting groove 401 is set in the through hole of the mounting panel 4. At this time, the guide port 402 is set on the bottom of the mounting groove 401. During the installation and fixing process of the socket housing 1 and the mounting panel 4, the sealing member 2 is squeezed to contact the side wall of the mounting groove 401. When the bottom of the mounting groove 401 contacts the flange 106 at the lower end, it plays a role of limiting movement. At this time, the two elastic members are elastically released to limit the socket housing 1; at this time, the sealing area is the area between the groove wall of the mounting groove 401 and the surface of the adjacent socket housing 1.

[0037] In addition, after the socket housing 1 and the mounting panel 4 are installed, the flange 106 at the upper end will cover the groove 101 to prevent dust and other impurities from contacting the seal 2 and prevent the seal 2 from being exposed to sunlight, thereby increasing the service life of the seal 2 and improving the service life and quality of the product; it should be noted here that the seal 2 in Examples 1 and 2 can use an elastic sealing ring; the first elastic member and the second elastic member use an elastic plastic sheet, and an inclination angle is set between the plastic sheet and the socket housing 1.

[0038] In order to enhance the strength of the socket housing 1 , a reinforcing member 105 is fixed to the outside of the socket housing 1 , and the lower end of the reinforcing member 105 is connected to the flange 106 at the upper end. Embodiment 2

[0039] This embodiment provides a device, which includes a device body and the waterproof socket with an elastic mounting portion in the above-mentioned embodiment 1, wherein the waterproof socket is mounted on the device body; Figure 6 This waterproof socket is fixed on the integrated panel 6 or the mounting plate surface of the equipment body.

[0040] Specific use:

[0041] Observation attachment Figures 3 to 6 , the terminal 3 and the socket housing 1 are fixed and installed in advance. At this time, it is only necessary to set the sealing member 2 in the groove 101. The operator holds the socket housing 1 to make the guide member 104 move along the guide opening 402. The sealing member 2 and the groove wall of the installation groove 401 are in contact and pressure, and the installation groove 401 is sealed until the flange 106 at the lower end contacts the installation groove 401. At this time, the tail ends of the first elastic member and the second elastic member are released at the moment of exposing the installation groove 401, and finally the socket housing 1 is fixed. At the same time, the sealing between the socket housing 1 and the installation panel 4 can also be effectively guaranteed. This socket avoids the use of bolts, achieves higher installation efficiency, and has better waterproof effect.
