[0034] The present application will be further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. It should be noted here that the technical features involved in the various embodiments of the present application described below can be combined with each other as long as they do not conflict with each other. The embodiments described below by referring to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are intended to explain the present application, and should not be construed as a limitation to the present application.
[0035] As Figures 1 to 12 shown, this embodiment provides a connector, including: a plug 1, a socket 2, and a locking handle 3. The locking handle 3 is connected between the plug 1 and the socket 2. The locking handle 3 has a first locking stroke moving along a first direction and a second locking stroke moving along a second direction, and the first direction intersects with the second direction. When the locking handle 3 moves within the first locking stroke, the locking handle 3 moves synchronously with the socket 2. When the locking handle 3 is located within the second locking stroke, the plug 1 and the socket 2 are combined.
[0036] Furthermore, the second locking stroke includes a starting position and an ending position. When the locking handle 3 moves from the starting position to the ending position within the second locking stroke, the locking handle 3 is engaged with the plug 1.
[0037] In this embodiment, when the locking handle 3 needs to lock the plug 1 and the socket 2, first move the locking handle 3 along the first direction (for example, counterclockwise), and the locking handle 3 will drive the socket 2 to move synchronously, so that the plug 1 and the socket 2 are combined, that is, the first locking stroke; then move the locking handle 3 along the second direction (for example, horizontally) from the starting position to the ending position, and the locking handle 3 is engaged with the plug 1, so that the locking handle 3 and the plug 1 are locked, and further the locking of the plug 1 and the socket 2 is realized, that is, the second locking stroke. Therefore, the connector can realize the locking of the plug 1 and the socket 2 only by operating the locking handle 3, without installing an additional locking structure, which can not only improve the convenience of the installation operation of the connector, but also reduce the occupation of the vehicle interior space and the production cost of the connector.
[0038] It should be understood that the starting position and the ending position of the second locking stroke can be switched with each other, and the second locking stroke and the first locking stroke can also be switched with each other. Therefore, the separation of the plug 1 and the socket 2 can also be realized through the locking handle 3.
[0039] In this embodiment, as Figures 1 to 3 shown, the first direction is the direction in which the locking handle 3 rotates relative to the plug 1 and the included angle between the locking handle 3 and the plug 1 gradually decreases (that is, counterclockwise), and the second direction is the direction in which the plug 1 faces the socket 2.
[0040] In this embodiment, as Figure 1As shown, the locking handle 3 is provided with a guiding groove 301, and the socket 2 is provided with a guiding post a. When the locking handle 3 moves within the first locking stroke, the guiding post a slides synchronously within the guiding groove 301, enabling the locking handle 3 to drive the socket 2 to move towards the plug 1, ultimately achieving the connection between the socket 2 and the plug 1.
[0041] In this embodiment, during the connection Figure 1 and Figure 6 As shown, one end of the guiding groove 301 is externally connected to the locking handle 3, and the guiding post a of the socket 2 can enter the guiding groove 301 through the opening where the guiding groove 301 is externally connected to the locking handle 3, and slide synchronously within the guiding groove 301 along with the movement of the locking handle 3.
[0042] In other embodiments, the locking handle 3 is provided with a guiding post a, and the socket 2 is provided with a guiding groove 301. When the locking handle 3 moves within the first locking stroke, the socket 2 can move synchronously with the locking handle 3 to achieve the connection between the plug 1 and the socket 2.
[0043] During the connection Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the guiding groove 301 includes a first groove section 301a and a second groove section 301b that are interconnected. The first groove section 301a is an "arc-shaped" section, and the second groove section 301b is located on the inner tangent of the first groove section 301a and extends towards the center of the circle of the first groove section 301a; when the locking handle 3 moves from the first locking stroke to the second locking stroke, the guiding post a moves from the first groove section 301a to the second groove section 301b.
[0044] In this embodiment, the first groove section 301a is an arc-shaped groove. When the locking handle 3 rotates within the first locking stroke, it can drive the guiding post a to slide within the first groove section 301a to achieve the connection between the plug 1 and the socket 2. When the locking handle 3 moves within the second locking stroke, the guiding post a moves from the first groove section 301a into the second groove section 301b, keeping the plug 1 and the socket 2 in a connected state all the time, avoiding the separation of the socket 2 and the plug 1 caused by the reverse sliding of the locking handle 3 within the first groove section 301a.
[0045] It should be understood that when the guiding post a slides within the first groove section 301a, the guiding post a should gradually approach the plug 1 to connect the plug 1 and the socket 2.
[0046] In this embodiment, during the connection Figures 1 to 3 , as well as Figure 6As shown, the locking handle 3 is provided with a mounting hole 302. The mounting hole 302 includes a first hole section 302a and a second hole section 302b that communicate with each other. The second hole section 302b is arranged along the radial direction of the first hole section 302a. The plug 1 is provided with a rotating shaft b. When the locking handle 3 moves from the first locking stroke to the second locking stroke, the rotating shaft b moves from the first hole section 302a to the second hole section 302b.
[0047] Specifically, when the locking handle 3 moves within the first locking stroke, the rotating shaft b is located within the first hole section 302a. The locking handle 3 rotates counterclockwise around the rotating shaft b and drives the guide post a to move synchronously within the first groove section 301a, so that the distance between the guide post a and the rotating shaft b gradually decreases to achieve the combination of the plug 1 and the socket 2. When the locking handle 3 moves from the starting position to the ending position within the second locking stroke, the locking handle 3 moves along the direction of the plug 1 approaching the socket 2. The guide post a moves from the first groove section 301a to the second groove section 301b, and the rotating shaft b also moves from the first hole section 302a to the second hole section 302b, so that the locking handle 3 is clamped with the plug 1 to achieve the locking of the plug 1 and the socket 2.
[0048] It should be understood that the second groove section 301b, the first hole section 302a, and the second hole section 302b should all be located on the same straight line, so that when the locking handle 3 moves along the second direction, both the guide post a and the rotating shaft b can change their positions simultaneously.
[0049] In this embodiment, in combination Figure 1 and Figure 6 As shown, the diameter of the first hole section 302a is larger than the diameter of the rotating shaft b, so that when the locking handle 3 moves within the first locking stroke, the locking handle 3 can rotate relative to the rotating shaft b to achieve the first locking stroke of the locking handle 3. Both the first hole section 302a and the second hole section 302b are circular holes. The length of the common chord of the first hole section 302a and the second hole section 302b is smaller than the diameter of the rotating shaft b, so that when the locking handle 3 rotates around the rotating shaft b, the rotating shaft b still remains within the first hole section 302a, preventing the locking handle 3 from moving into the second hole section 302b during rotation and affecting the locking of the plug 1 and the socket 2 by the locking handle 3.
[0050] It should be understood that the common chord refers to the line connecting the two intersection points when two circles intersect. Since both the first hole section 302a and the second hole section 302b are circular holes and the first hole section 302a and the second hole section 302b communicate with each other, therefore, to prevent the locking handle 3 from moving into the second hole section 302b when the locking handle 3 rotates around the rotating shaft b, the length of the common chord needs to be set smaller than the diameter of the rotating shaft b. If the rotating shaft b needs to move from the first hole section 302a to the second hole section 302b or from the second hole section 302b to the first hole section 302a, applying a certain external force to the locking handle 3 can change the position of the rotating shaft b.
[0051] Combined with Figure 1 、 Figure 4 and Figure 7 As shown, the plug 1 includes a plug body 11 and a first engaging member 12 that are connected to each other. The locking handle 3 includes a handle body 31 and a second engaging member 32 that are connected to each other. The plug body 11 is connected to the handle body 31. When the locking handle 3 is in the second locking stroke, the first engaging member 12 and the second engaging member 32 abut against each other along the second locking stroke in the direction of the first locking stroke.
[0052] In this embodiment, the cross-sectional shapes of both the first engaging member 12 and the second engaging member 32 are right-angled triangles. One right-angled side of the first engaging member 12 is used to connect to the plug body 11, and the other right-angled side is used to abut against the second engaging member 32. One right-angled side of the second engaging member 32 is used to connect to the handle body 31, and the other right-angled side is used to abut against the first engaging member 12. Therefore, the right-angled sides of the first engaging member 12 and the second engaging member 32 abut against each other along the second locking stroke in the direction of the first locking stroke, which can better achieve the first locking of the connector and prevent the locking handle 3 from moving along the first direction when the locking handle 3 is in the second locking stroke.
[0053] It should be understood that since the locking handle 3 will move along the second direction when the locking handle 3 is in the second locking stroke, in order to prevent the locking handle 3 from moving along the first direction at the same time, the locking handle 3 and the plug 1 need to achieve the first locking of the connector by the abutting of the first engaging member 12 and the second engaging member 32 to ensure the realization of the second locking of the connector.
[0054] Furthermore, the plug 1 includes two first engaging members 12, and the two first engaging members 12 are respectively connected to two opposite sides of the plug body 11. The locking handle 3 includes two second engaging members 32, and the two second engaging members 32 are respectively connected to two opposite sides of the handle body 31. When the locking handle 3 is in the second locking stroke, the two first engaging members 12 and the two second engaging members 32 abut against each other in a one-to-one correspondence to better achieve the first locking of the connector.
[0055] Combined with Figure 1 、 Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, the first engaging member 12 is provided with a first inclined surface 121, and the second engaging member 32 is provided with a second inclined surface 321. When the locking handle 3 moves in the first locking stroke, the first inclined surface 121 comes into contact with the second inclined surface 321.
[0056] In this embodiment, the first inclined surface 121 and the second inclined surface 321 have a certain guiding effect. When the locking handle 3 moves within the first locking stroke, the second inclined surface 321 contacts the first inclined surface 121, guiding the second engaging member 32 to lean against the first engaging member 12 to achieve the first locking of the connector.
[0057] As shown in combination with Figure 1 and Figure 5 shown, the plug 1 is provided with a protrusion 13. The protrusion 13 protrudes relative to the plug body 11. The locking handle 3 is provided with a locking hole 303. When the locking handle 3 is in the end position, the protrusion 13 is located within the locking hole 303 and is elastically engaged with the locking handle 3.
[0058] In this embodiment, the protrusion 13 includes a first protruding portion 131 and a second protruding portion 132. The first protruding portion 131 is connected to the second protruding portion 132, and the second protruding portion 132 is connected to the plug body 11. When the locking handle 3 is in the end position, the first protruding portion 131 is located within the locking hole 303 and is elastically engaged with the locking handle 3, enabling the locking handle 3 to remain locked with the plug 1, ensuring the locking of the plug 1 and the socket 2 to achieve the second locking of the connector.
[0059] In other embodiments, the protrusion 13 is provided with a locking groove, and the locking handle 3 is provided with a corresponding locking block. When the locking handle 3 moves along the plug 1 towards the socket 2, the locking block of the locking handle 3 will move into the locking groove of the protrusion 13 and be engaged with the groove wall of the locking groove to achieve the engagement of the locking handle 3 and the plug 1.
[0060] In addition, the handle body 31 is provided with an avoidance groove 305 for avoiding the second protruding portion 132, ensuring that the first protruding portion 131 can be elastically engaged with the locking handle 3 to achieve the second locking of the connector.
[0061] In this embodiment, as shown in combination with Figure 1 and Figure 12 shown, the first protruding portion 131 has a "right triangle structure", and the second protruding portion 132 has a "rectangular structure". One of the right-angled sides of the first protruding portion 131 is connected to the second protruding portion 132, and the protruding height of the first protruding portion 131 gradually increases along the direction of the plug 1 towards the socket 2.
[0062] Specifically, when the locking handle 3 is in the head position, the locking handle 3 is lifted by the first protruding portion 131, and the first protruding portion 131 is closer to the socket 2 relative to the clamping hole 303; when the locking handle 3 is in the end position, the first protruding portion 131 is located in the clamping hole 303 and is elastically clamped with the locking handle 3. Therefore, the locking handle 3 needs to move along the plug 1 in the direction towards the socket 2 (the second direction), and the plug 1 and the socket 2 are locked by the clamping of the locking handle 3 and the first protruding portion 131, thereby realizing the second locking of the connector.
[0063] Combined with Figure 5 and Figure 9 As shown, the handle body 31 is provided with a through hole 304, and the locking handle 3 further includes an elastic clamping member 33, and the elastic clamping member 33 is located in the through hole 304; the elastic clamping member 33 includes a main body portion 331 and two connecting portions 332, and the two connecting portions 332 are respectively connected to two opposite sides of the main body portion 331, the main body portion 331 is spaced from the hole wall of the through hole 304, and both connecting portions 332 are connected to the hole wall of the through hole 304, and the clamping hole 303 is located in the main body portion 331.
[0064] In this embodiment, one end of the main body portion 331 is provided with an anti-slip structure c, the clamping hole 303 is located at the other end of the main body portion 331, the anti-slip structure c is disposed opposite to the clamping hole 303, and the two connecting portions 332 are located between the anti-slip structure c and the clamping hole 303. The anti-slip structure c can increase the friction of the main body portion 331 and facilitate the operation of the elastic clamping member 33.
[0065] Specifically, when the plug 1 and the socket 2 need to be separated, the anti-slip structure c of the main body portion 331 of the elastic clamping member 33 can be pressed, the main body portion 331 rotates relative to the through hole 304 around the two connecting portions 332, and the first protruding portion 131 disengages from the clamping hole 303, so that the locking handle 3 can move relative to the plug 1 in the direction opposite to the second direction; then the locking handle 3 is moved in the direction opposite to the first direction, and the socket 2 is driven to move synchronously, so that the socket 2 is separated from the plug 1 to realize the separation of the plug 1 and the socket 2.
[0066] In summary, when the plug 1 needs to be locked with the socket 2, first place the guiding post a of the socket 2 into the guiding groove 301, then rotate the locking handle 3 counterclockwise around the rotating shaft b, and drive the guiding post a to move synchronously in the first groove section 301a, so that the distance between the guiding post a and the rotating shaft b gradually decreases, and the first engaging part 12 abuts against the second engaging part 32. At this time, the plug 1 and the socket 2 are combined, and the connector achieves the first locking; then move the locking handle 3 along the plug 1 towards the socket 2, so that the guiding post a moves from the first groove section 301a to the second groove section 301b, the rotating shaft b moves from the first hole section 302a to the second hole section 302b, and the first protrusion 131 is located in the engaging hole 303 and elastically engages with the main body part 331 of the elastic engaging part 33. At this time, the plug 1 and the socket 2 are locked, and the connector achieves the second locking.
[0067] When the plug 1 needs to be separated from the socket 2, first press the anti-slip structure c of the main body part 331 of the elastic engaging part 33, the main body part 331 rotates around the two connecting parts 332 relative to the through hole 304, and the end of the main body part 331 provided with the engaging hole 303 is lifted. At the same time, pull the locking handle 3 along the socket 2 towards the plug 1, so that the first protrusion 131 is separated from the elastic engaging part 33, and the guiding post a moves from the second groove section 301b to the first groove section 301a, and the rotating shaft b moves from the second hole section 302b to the first hole section 302a; then rotate the locking handle 3 clockwise around the rotating shaft b and drive the guiding post a to move synchronously in the first groove section 301a, so that the first engaging part 12 is separated from the second engaging part 32, and the distance between the guiding post a and the rotating shaft b gradually increases. Finally, the guiding post a is disengaged from the first groove section 301a. At this time, the plug 1 and the socket 2 are separated, and the unlocking of the connector is achieved.
[0068] This embodiment also provides a vehicle, including an electronic device and the above-mentioned connector, and the electronic device is connected to the connector.
