[0002] An electrical connector is a device used for electrical connection. It can connect wires and cables between electronic devices, electrical appliances or circuit boards to achieve the transmission of current and the transfer of signals. Electrical connectors are widely used in various fields in modern society, including communication, industry, automotive, aerospace, etc. Among them, the snap - type electrical connector is a special electrical connector, and its design feature is to achieve connection and fixation through a snap - fitting mechanism.

[0003] The utility model with the publication number "CN218456193U", a snap - type electrical connector, belongs to the technical field of snap - type electrical connectors, including a socket housing. One side of the socket housing is provided with a waterproof sealing component, the inner wall surface of the socket housing is provided with a guiding slide rail, self - locking snap - fitting components are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the socket housing, a plug is arranged at the upper end of the socket housing, and positioning card slots corresponding to the self - locking snap - fitting components are arranged on both sides of the plug. By setting the self - locking snap - fitting component, when the plug is connected and installed, the limiting block can be snapped into the limiting card slot to snap - fit and fix the plug, improving the convenience of equipment use, ensuring the stability of installation, saving human resources. At the same time, the adjusting plate can be rotated to make the abutting rod abut against the limiting block to prevent the limiting block from loosening due to accidental touch, improving the use quality of the equipment. By setting the waterproof sealing component, the service life of the equipment is improved, and the probability of short - circuit damage is reduced.

[0004] Although the above - mentioned utility model can prevent the limiting block from loosening due to accidental touch, improve the use quality of the equipment, and improve the service life of the equipment and reduce the probability of short - circuit damage by setting the waterproof sealing component, when removing the plug, it is necessary to pull the adjusting rods at both ends respectively to end the clamping connection between the limiting block and the positioning card slot before the plug can be removed. This results in the user being unable to remove the plug alone. In scenarios where the plug needs to be frequently replaced or removed, if two people need to cooperate each time, it will greatly increase the labor cost and time cost. At the same time, especially in emergency situations where the equipment or plug needs to be quickly replaced, the cooperation of two people may delay time and reduce the overall work efficiency.
