Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of connectors, in particular to a connector for a vehicle-mounted camera. Background Art
[0002] When a vehicle is modified to add a camera, the camera's wiring harness connector needs to be connected to the wiring harness socket inside the vehicle to power the camera.
[0003] Since the additionally modified camera harness connector and the harness socket inside the vehicle are connected by a snap connection method without an additional protective structure, the stability between the camera harness connector and the harness socket inside the vehicle cannot be guaranteed. Once the vehicle is flooded, water will flow between the camera harness connector and the harness socket inside the vehicle, causing the harness to malfunction.
[0004] Therefore, the conventional camera connector can be improved to increase the protection of the camera harness connector and the harness socket inside the vehicle, thereby avoiding the above-mentioned problems. Utility Model Content
[0005] The purpose of the utility model is to solve the above-mentioned problem and to provide a connector for a vehicle-mounted camera.
[0006] In order to achieve the above purpose, the utility model adopts the following technical solutions:
[0007] A connector for a vehicle-mounted camera comprises a socket and a plug, wherein the socket and the plug are fixed by a snap-on connection, a fixing block is fixed on the plug, and a round sleeve is slidably connected to the plug, a fixing rod is fixed on the round sleeve, and the fixing rod passes through an opening formed on the fixing block, a spring is sleeved on the fixing rod, and a limiter for limiting the position of the round sleeve is provided on the plug.
[0008] Preferably, the limiting member comprises a round block fixed on the plug, and the round block is connected to the rotating ring by a thread, an end cover is rotatably connected to the rotating ring, and the end cover is provided with a sleeve hole sleeved on the end of the fixing rod.
[0009] Preferably, a protrusion is fixed to the end of the fixing rod, and the sleeve hole of the end cover is sleeved on the protrusion.
[0010] Preferably, a threaded sleeve is connected to the socket via threads.
[0011] Preferably, an elastic rubber gasket protrudes from the portion where the threaded sleeve abuts against the circular sleeve.
[0012] In summary, due to the adoption of the above technical solution, the beneficial effects of the utility model are:
[0013] 1. The present application can cause the round sleeve to move to the connection between the socket and the plug under the elastic force of the spring. Under the action of the round sleeve, the connection between the socket and the plug is shielded and protected, effectively preventing liquids and other substances from flowing into the connection between the socket and the plug.
[0014] 2. The present application changes the position of the screw sleeve on the socket by rotating the screw sleeve, thereby changing the position of the round sleeve on the socket and the plug to adapt to different sockets. That is, under the action of the screw sleeve, the round sleeve can better shield and protect the connection between the socket and the plug according to the actual situation.

[0021] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model. Example
[0022] The utility model provides a technical solution, please refer to Figure 1-4 :
[0023] A connector for a vehicle-mounted camera includes a socket 1 and a plug 2. The socket 1 and the plug 2 are fixed by a snap-on connection. This is a direct reference to the prior art and is not described in detail herein. A fixing block 4 is fixed to the plug 2, and a round sleeve 7 is slidably connected to the plug 2. A sealing ring is provided on the part where the round sleeve 7 is slidably connected to the plug 2 and the socket 1 to prevent liquid from entering the connection between the socket 1 and the plug 2. A fixing rod 8 is fixed to the round sleeve 7, and the fixing rod 8 passes through an opening 6 provided on the fixing block 4. A spring 9 is sleeved on the fixing rod 8. A limiting member for limiting the position of the round sleeve 7 is provided on the plug 2. Example
[0024] The technical solution is basically the same as that of the first embodiment, except that Figure 3 As shown, the stopper includes a round block 5 fixed on the plug 2, and the round block 5 is connected to the rotating ring 12 by a thread, and the rotating ring 12 is rotatably connected with an end cover 11, and the end cover 11 is provided with a sleeve hole 13 sleeved on the end of the fixed rod 8. A protrusion 10 is fixed to the end of the fixed rod 8, and the sleeve hole 13 of the end cover 11 is sleeved on the protrusion 10. When the protrusion 10 extends into the sleeve hole 13, it is impossible to apply force to the fixed rod 8 through the protrusion 10, thereby changing the position of the round sleeve 7. Example
[0025] The technical solution is basically the same as that of the first embodiment, except that Figure 3 As shown, the socket 1 is connected with a screw sleeve 3 by a thread, and the position of the screw sleeve 3 on the socket 1 is changed by rotating the screw sleeve 3, thereby changing the position of the round sleeve 7 on the socket 1 and the plug 2 to adapt to different sockets 1, that is, under the action of the screw sleeve 3, the round sleeve 7 can better shield and protect the connection between the socket 1 and the plug 2 according to the actual situation. An elastic rubber gasket protrudes from the part where the screw sleeve 3 abuts against the round sleeve 7.
[0026] In summary, the present embodiment provides that the screw sleeve 3 is connected to the socket 1 by threads, and then the socket 1 can be connected to the plug 2. Under the elastic force of the spring 9, the round sleeve 7 can be moved to the connection between the socket 1 and the plug 2, and the end of the round sleeve 7 abuts against the screw sleeve 3. The sleeve hole 13 is aligned with the protrusion 10, and then the rotating ring 12 is connected to the round block 5 by threads until the sleeve hole 13 is sleeved on the protrusion 10. At this time, under the action of the round sleeve 7, the connection between the socket 1 and the plug 2 is shielded and protected, effectively preventing liquids and other substances from flowing into the connection between the socket 1 and the plug 2.
[0027] The above description of the embodiments enables those skilled in the art to implement or use the present invention. Various modifications to these embodiments will be apparent to those skilled in the art, and the general principles defined herein may be implemented in other embodiments without departing from the spirit or scope of the present invention. Therefore, the present invention will not be limited to the embodiments shown herein, but will conform to the widest scope consistent with the principles and novel features disclosed herein.
