The protection level can reach IP68, and it can protect the large cable connection points in the street lamp poles and manholes of municipal street lamps. Background Art:

[0002] Urban road lighting is an important part of urban infrastructure, and plays a significant and positive role in improving urban functions, enhancing the urban human environment, raising the living standards of the people, and ensuring safety.

[0003] With the acceleration of the urban modernization process, the municipal construction has advanced by leaps and bounds. The specifications of power cables have become diversified, and the demand for cable connectors has increased. Due to the size limitation of the inspection hatch of the lamp post at the construction site, usually after the cable joint is crimped by the construction personnel, ordinary insulating tape is wound or a water pipe is sleeved to achieve the insulation purpose. However, with the aging of the tape and the hose, the insulation performance decreases. Especially in rainy days or due to other reasons such as spraying, the lamp post body becomes electrified, and pedestrians passing by may cause electric shock accidents. At the same time, when flood disasters and rainstorm weather occur, the cable joints will be flooded. Due to reasons such as waterlogging, the terminals of conventional cable joints will let in water and leak electricity, unable to operate normally, and even may cause dangers such as electric shock to personnel. The safety connectors in the prior art do not meet the usage requirements of large cable street lamps. For example, a safety connector for a coal mining equipment motor disclosed in Chinese Patent No. 201810907428.2 has a cooling layer provided inside the wall of a cylindrical seat. The cooling layer is connected to a coolant inlet and a coolant outlet. The coolant inlet is connected to the coolant, and a solenoid valve is installed on the coolant inlet or the coolant outlet; the circuit board is circular, and a number of insulating limiting protrusions are provided on the outer side of the circuit board.

A cavity that matches the shape of the wiring conductor is provided inside the insulating colloid fixing cavity for fixing the wiring conductor. Small holes are opened in the insulating colloid fixing cavity and threaded, for the set screw to fasten the cable. The set screw cooperates with the insulating rubber fixing sleeve through the threaded opening on the insulating colloid fixing cavity to press the cable onto the wiring conductor. A rotary extrusion closed safety connector disclosed in Chinese Patent No. 02160165.8 is composed of two major parts: a sealed plug and a sealed socket. The sealed plug has two structures: fully enclosed and semi-enclosed. The fully enclosed sealed plug is composed of a telescopic outer shell, a rotary core, a core spring, a sealing gasket, a sealed wiring cover, a wire sealing sleeve, etc.The telescopic housing is a circular cover-shaped hollow structure that can be folded and compressed, with an oval opening at the front; the front section of the rotary insert core is oval, and positive and negative power conducting strips are installed on the two widest sides of the oval. The ground wire conducting strip is installed in the middle of the front part of the rotary insert core. There is a concave bayonet at the top of each of the two widest sides of the oval. The rear section of the rotary insert core is circular, and a circular card is installed at the top; the insert core spring is sleeved on the rotary insert core, pressing against the circular card and supported inside the telescopic housing to compress the rotary insert core inside the telescopic housing; the sealing gasket is installed in front of the rotary insert core to cover the oval opening of the telescopic housing; the sealed wiring cover is placed on top of the telescopic housing, and the wire sealing sleeve is composed of a trapezoidal sealing rubber tube and a trapezoidal sleeve.

[0022] The present invention will be further described below through embodiments and in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0023] Example 1:

[0024] A kind of street lamp diving safety connector involved in this embodiment has a protection level of IP68, and the main structure is as Figures 1-5 shown, including a wiring barrel 1, a tightening flange 2, a cable terminal 3, a sealing disc 4, a clamping joint 5, a large terminal hole 6, a small terminal hole 7, a large crimping hole 8, a small crimping hole 9, an 8# crimping screw 10, a 6# crimping screw 11, an inner inclined surface 12, an outer inclined surface 13, a large through hole 14, a small through hole 15, a large sealing ring 16, a small sealing ring 17, a plug 18, a thread 19 and a convex rib 20;

[0025] The cylindrical hollow wiring barrel 1 is threadedly connected to the tightening flange 2. A cable terminal 3 is arranged inside the wiring barrel 1, and the tightening flange 2 is connected to the sealing disc 4;

[0026] The wiring barrel 1 is connected to the cable terminal 3 through a groove arranged inside the wiring barrel 1 and a clamping joint 5 arranged on the cable terminal 3;

[0027] Among them, two through large terminal holes 6 and three small terminal holes 7 are arranged between the upper and lower surfaces of the cable terminal 3. Two large crimping holes 8 communicating with the large terminal holes 6 are arranged between two corresponding side surfaces. Three small crimping holes 9 communicating with the small terminal holes 7 are arranged between the other two corresponding side surfaces. An 8# crimping screw 10 is arranged in the large crimping hole 8, and a 6# crimping screw 11 is arranged in the small crimping hole 9;

[0028] The tightening flange 2 is connected to the sealing disc 4 through an inner inclined surface 12 arranged on the tightening flange 2 and an outer inclined surface 13 arranged on the sealing disc 4;

[0029] Among them, two large through holes 14 and two small through holes 15 are opened on the tightening flange 2. A plurality of large sealing rings 16 and small sealing rings 17 with a conical structure are arranged on the sealing disc 4. The number of both the large sealing rings 16 and the small sealing rings 17 is 2, and both have plugs 18. A thread 19 is arranged at the bottom of the wiring barrel 1, which is convenient for installation on the fixed beam inside the lamp post when hoisting is required. A plurality of convex ribs 20 are arranged at equal intervals on the side wall of the wiring barrel 1 to prevent the wiring barrel 1 from contacting or rubbing against the inner wall of the lamp post.

[0030] The wiring barrel 1 involved in this embodiment is of a transparent structure; the large terminal hole 6 is used for crimping the main cable, and the small terminal hole 7 is used for crimping branch cables below 10 square. The cooperation of the large crimping hole 8, the small crimping hole 9, the 8# crimping screw 10 and the 6# crimping screw 11 can withstand the safety tension while ensuring the cable contact area, effectively avoiding the accident of overheating and burning caused by the cable loosening due to the tension; the inner inclined surface 12 and the outer inclined surface 13 correspond and can be closely attached.

[0031] When the street lamp diving safety connector involved in this embodiment is in use:

[0032] First, insert the cable through the large through-hole 14 or the small through-hole 15 into the large sealing ring 16 or the small sealing ring 17. According to the cable size, remove the plug 18 of the large sealing ring 16 or the small sealing ring 17, so that the large sealing ring 16 or the small sealing ring 17 fits tightly with the cable. The inherent elasticity of the large sealing ring 16 and the small sealing ring 17 can tightly hold the cable;

[0033] Then, insert the cable into the large terminal hole 6 or the small terminal hole 7, tighten the 8# crimping screw 10 or the 6# crimping screw 11 through the large crimping hole 8 or the small crimping hole 9, and embed the card joint 5 into the groove to connect the cable terminal 3 with the wiring barrel 1;

[0034] Finally, tighten the wiring barrel 1 and the tightening flange 2 to connect them. Pour the electronic potting adhesive into the wiring barrel 1 to completely cover the cable joint. The sealing function of the sealing disc 4 can ensure that the protection level reaches IP68 and avoid the problem of glue leakage of the electronic potting adhesive;

[0035] After the electronic potting adhesive is cured, it can prevent any water and air from directly contacting the cable joint, ensuring the power safety and continuous operation in harsh environments such as flooding;

[0036] The above-mentioned electronic potting adhesive is composed of vinyl silicone oil and hydrogen-containing silicone oil mixed in a volume ratio of 1:1. It can be cured within 30 minutes after being mixed evenly. After curing, it has transparency, which can clearly check the operation of the cable terminal and provide convenience for construction, operation and maintenance.

[0037] Embodiment 2:

[0038] A diving safety connector involved in this embodiment is as shown in Figure 6 shown. Install the electronic potting adhesive in the wiring barrel 1 made of transparent PC material. The protection level can reach IP68, which can completely isolate electricity from water and air, avoid the charged body touching the pole body of the street lamp pole, and prevent electric leakage and electric shock accidents. It has a dual protection function and can provide normal and safe power supply even in case of long-term flooding. The service life can reach more than 20 years.
