Detailed implementation manners
[0027] Next, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present utility model, rather than all the embodiments.
[0028] As shown in the attached Figure 1 to the attached Figure 10 figures:
[0029] A push-pull type power connector with an anti-disconnection structure includes a plug housing 1 and a socket housing 2. The plug housing 1 and the socket housing 2 are sleeved with each other. A card slot 101 is opened on the outer wall of the plug housing 1, and a steel ball 11 matching the card slot 101 is fixedly clamped on the outer wall of the socket housing 2. The steel ball 11 is nested in the card slot 101. A cup ring 3 is slidably sleeved at the connection of the plug housing 1 and the socket housing 2. One end of the cup ring 3 extends to the outside of the steel ball 11. A limit ring 201 is provided on the outer wall of the socket housing 2. The extended end of the cup ring 3 is in contact with the limit ring 201. An installation groove 102 is opened on the outer wall of the middle part of the plug housing 1. A limit block 7 is placed in the plug housing 1 in the installation groove 102. A first spring 8 is placed on the lower surface of the limit block 7. A limit groove 302 matching the limit block 7 is opened on the inner wall of the cup ring 3. A fastening screw 4 is threadedly connected to the outer wall of the cup ring 3. A elastic piece 5 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the cup ring 3 through the fastening screw 4. The other end of the elastic piece 5 extends into the cup ring 3. The extended end of the elastic piece 5 corresponds to the limit block 7.
[0030] In the above technical solution, when the plug housing 1 and the socket housing 2 are in the locked state, the first spring 8 pushes the limit block 7 upward. The limit block 7 is affected by the force of the first spring 8. At this time, the front end of the limit block 7 enters the limit groove 302. At this time, the left side of the cup ring 3 is limited by the limit block 7, and the right side of the cup ring 3 is limited by the limit ring 201 on the socket housing 2. At this time, the cup ring 3 cannot move, and the cup ring 3 can stably limit and protect the steel ball 11, so as to realize stable connection when the plug housing 1 and the socket housing 2 are vertically installed, and realize the anti-disconnection function between the plug housing 1 and the socket housing 2;
[0031] When the connector needs to be opened, the user gently presses the elastic piece 5 with a finger. After the elastic piece 5 is affected by an external force, it will push and press the limit block 7, causing the limit block 7 to move downward and compress the first spring 8. The limit block 7 enters the installation groove 102 inside. At this time, the limit block 7 releases the restriction on the cup ring 3, and the cup ring 3 can move to the left. The cup ring 3 is separated from the steel ball 11. The cup ring 3 releases the restriction on the steel ball 11. At this time, the steel ball 11 can move in the slot hole of the socket housing 2, and pulling the plug housing 1 can easily separate the plug housing 1 and the socket housing 2.
[0032] As shown in the attached Figure 3 and the attached Figure 6As shown, a limiting shaft 6 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the middle part of the plug housing 1. A sliding groove 301 matching the limiting shaft 6 is provided on the inner wall of the cup ring 3, and the limiting shaft 6 is slidably connected to the cup ring 3 through the sliding groove 301.
[0033] In the above technical solution, the sliding groove 301 is provided on the inner wall of the cup ring 3. The sliding groove 301 cooperates with the limiting shaft 6 on the plug housing 1, which can effectively prevent the cup ring 3 from rotating during operation and ensure the accuracy of the working positions of the elastic piece 5 and the limiting block 7.
[0034] As shown in the Figure 10 attachment, the limiting block 7 is in a "convex" shape. A fixing groove 103 is provided at the installation groove 102 of the plug housing 1. A retaining ring 9 is sleeved on the plug housing 1 at the fixing groove 103, and the retaining ring 9 is slidably sleeved with the limiting block 7.
[0035] In the above technical solution, through the design of the retaining ring 9 and the "convex" shape of the limiting block 7, the retaining ring 9 limits and protects the limiting block 7 to prevent the limiting block 7 from popping out of the installation groove 102 when the cup ring 3 falls off.
[0036] As shown in the Figure 10 attachment, an upper groove 701 is provided at the bottom of the limiting block 7. A lower groove 104 is provided at the installation groove 102 of the plug housing 1. The lower groove 104 corresponds to the upper groove 701. One end of the first spring 8 is located in the lower groove 104, and the other end of the first spring 8 extends into the upper groove 701.
[0037] In the above technical solution, through the design of the upper groove 701 and the lower groove 104, it is used to limit and protect the first spring 8.
[0038] As shown in the Figure 8 attachment, the elastic piece 5 is in a "7" shape. The elastic piece 5 is made of a metal material with good elasticity. This design enables the elastic piece to respond flexibly when subjected to an external force.
[0039] As shown in the Figure 1 to the Figure 7 attachment, an outer convex ring 105 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the middle part of the plug housing 1. An inner convex ring 303 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the cup ring 3. A second spring 10 is sleeved on the outer wall of the plug housing 1. The second spring 10 is located between the plug housing 1 and the cup ring 3. One end of the second spring 10 contacts the outer convex ring 105, and the other end of the second spring 10 contacts the inner convex ring 303.
[0040] In the above technical solution, through the design of the second spring 10, the second spring 10 presses against the cup ring 3, thereby limiting the cup ring 3, enabling the cup ring 3 to be stably sleeved outside the socket housing 2, preventing the cup ring 3 from moving horizontally, and further improving the connection stability between the plug housing 1 and the socket housing 2.
[0041] Specific usage and function of this embodiment:
[0042] When the present utility model is in use, in the locked state of the plug housing 1 and the socket housing 2, the first spring 8 pushes the limiting block 7 upward. Under the action of the first spring 8, the front end of the limiting block 7 enters the limiting groove 302. At this time, the left side of the cup ring 3 is limited by the limiting block 7, and the right side of the cup ring 3 is limited by the limiting ring 201 on the socket housing 2. At this time, the cup ring 3 cannot move, so that even if the second spring 10 is displaced under the influence of an inertial force in the vertical direction, the position of the cup ring 3 can remain stable. The cup ring 3 can stably limit and protect the steel ball 11, so as to realize stable connection when the plug housing 1 and the socket housing 2 are vertically installed, and realize the anti-disconnection function between the plug housing 1 and the socket housing 2;
[0043] Please refer to the above structure and process Figures 1 - 10 。
[0044] When it is necessary to open the connector, the user gently presses the elastic piece 5 with a finger. After being acted on by an external force, the elastic piece 5 will push the limiting block 7, causing the limiting block 7 to move downward and compress the first spring 8. The limiting block 7 enters the interior of the installation groove 102. At this time, the limiting block 7 releases the restriction on the cup ring 3, and the cup ring 3 can move to the left. At this time, the second spring 10 is compressed, and the cup ring 3 is separated from the steel ball 11. The cup ring 3 releases the restriction on the steel ball 11. At this time, the steel ball 11 can move in the slot of the socket housing 2, and pulling the plug housing 1 can easily separate the plug housing 1 from the socket housing 2.
[0045] Please refer to the above structure and process Figures 1 - 10 。
