Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of endoscopes, and in particular to a connection structure of a connector seat. Background Art

[0002] An endoscope system is a commonly used medical device. During use, an endoscope enters the patient's body through a natural orifice or a surgical incision. Once the endoscope is inserted into the organ to be examined, the doctor can view images of the lesion on the main unit's display screen, allowing for medical diagnosis. The endoscope is connected to the main unit via a connector. Typically, the main unit's cover is equipped with a connector socket. When a connector is inserted into the connector socket, it connects to an adapter plate in the main unit, allowing the main unit to connect to the endoscope via the connector.

[0003] Typically, to ensure the reliability of the connection between the adapter plate and the connector, the connector base and the cover are fixed with screws. However, this makes the assembly of the connector base and the cover more complicated and inconvenient, which is not conducive to improving the assembly efficiency of the connector base and the cover. Utility Model Content

[0004] Based on this, it is necessary to provide a connection structure of the connector seat that can not only ensure reliable connection between the connector seat and the cover shell, but also improve the assembly efficiency of the connector seat and the shell to address the above problems.

[0033] See Figures 1 to 5 One embodiment of the present application provides a connection structure of a connector seat 1, comprising a shell 2a and a connector seat 1. The shell 2a forms a mainframe cavity 2b, and the shell 2a includes a cover 2. The cover 2 is provided with a through-hole 22, which is in communication with the mainframe cavity 2b. A guide groove 23 is provided on the opening edge of the accommodating hole 22 facing away from the mainframe cavity 2b. The extension direction of the guide groove 23 is the same as that of the accommodating hole 22. The shell 2a is provided with a first clamping portion. The connector seat 1 is inserted into the accommodating hole 22. The connector seat 1 is provided with a second clamping portion that is clamped with the first clamping portion. The outer surface of the connector seat 1 is provided with a guide portion 11, which is disposed in the guide groove 23.

[0034] In the above-mentioned connector seat connection structure, the cover shell 2 is provided with a receiving hole 22, a guide groove 23, and a first engaging portion, and the connector seat 1 is provided with a second engaging portion that engages with the first engaging portion and a guide portion 11 that engages with the guide groove 23. This allows that when assembling the connector seat 1 and the housing 2a, only one end of the connector seat 1 needs to be inserted into the receiving hole 22 from the end facing away from the host cavity 2b. That is, the first engaging portion and the second engaging portion can be used to secure the connector seat 1 to the cover shell 2. Compared with the solution of using screws to secure the connector seat 1 and the housing 2a, this can effectively simplify the assembly operation between the connector seat 1 and the housing 2a and improve the assembly efficiency of the connector seat 1 and the housing 2a. In addition, the cooperation between the guide groove 23 and the guide portion 11 ensures that the connector seat 1 can be connected to the cover shell 2 in the correct posture, thereby enabling the first engaging portion and the second engaging portion to reliably engage to secure the connector seat 1, so that when the connector is inserted into the connector seat 1, the connector can be connected to the adapter plate 3 located in the host cavity 2b. Therefore, the connection structure of the connector seat can not only ensure the reliability of the connection between the connector seat 1 and the cover shell 2, but also improve the assembly efficiency of the connector seat 1 and the cover shell 2.

[0035] Optionally, the first clamping portion is integrally formed with the cover shell 2. In this way, the structural strength of the first clamping portion can be effectively ensured.

[0036] In one embodiment, see Figure 1 、 Figure 2 and Figure 4 The first engaging portion includes a buckle 21, which is protruding from the receiving hole 22 near the opening edge of the host cavity 2b. The second engaging portion includes a groove 16 provided on the outer surface of the connector base 1, and the buckle 21 engages with the groove 16. In this way, the buckle 21 is provided in the host cavity 2b and is located at the opening edge of the host cavity 2b. This allows the block 21 to engage with the groove 16 provided on the outer surface of the connector base 1 when the connector base 1 is inserted into the receiving hole 22 from the end of the receiving hole 22 facing away from the host cavity 2b, thereby achieving the fixation of the connector base 1 and the cover shell 2, thereby achieving convenient assembly between the connector base 1 and the shell 2a, and improving the assembly efficiency of the two.

[0037] In other embodiments, the first engaging portion may also include a positioning groove provided on the side wall of the receiving hole 22, with the outer surface of the connector housing 1 provided with a positioning hole. The second engaging portion may also include an elastic member and a positioning protrusion, with one end of the elastic member connected to the bottom wall of the positioning hole and the other end connected to the positioning protrusion. A portion of the positioning protrusion may protrude from the outer surface of the connector housing 1, and the positioning protrusion may engage with the positioning groove. In this manner, when the connector housing 1 and the cover 2 are assembled, the positioning protrusion can be embedded in the positioning groove, thereby conveniently securing the connector housing 1 to the housing 2a.

[0038] Further, combined with Figure 1 and Figure 4 As shown, the end of the clip 21 facing away from the cover shell 2 includes a first straight surface 211, which is perpendicular to the extension direction of the receiving hole 22. The side wall of the groove 16 includes a second straight surface 161, and the first straight surface 211 abuts against the second straight surface 161. In this way, the first straight surface 211 can strengthen the strength of the clip 21, so that when the first straight surface 211 and the second straight surface 161 abut and fit, the connector seat 1 can be fixed by the fit between the clip 21 and the groove 16. In addition, when the connector seat 1 is subjected to an outward pull force, the arrangement of the first straight surface 211 and the second straight surface 161 enables the connection between the clip 21 and the connector seat 1 to generate sufficient resistance, thereby preventing the connector seat 1 from being separated from the receiving hole 22 due to the force, and reliably improving the reliability of the connection structure.

[0039] Optionally, a reinforcing rib is provided on the side of the buckle 21 facing away from the connector seat 1, and the reinforcing rib is connected to the cover shell 2. In this way, the strength of the buckle 21 can be effectively enhanced to ensure the reliability of the connection between the connector seat 1 and the shell 2a.

[0040] Optional, combined Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, there are multiple first and second engaging portions, each of which is spaced apart on the cover 2 along the periphery of the receiving hole 22. The first engaging portions and the second engaging portions engage with each other in a one-to-one correspondence. This helps improve the reliability and stability of the connection between the connector base 1 and the cover 2, thereby ensuring that when the connector is inserted into the connector base 1, it can more reliably connect to the adapter board 3 located in the main body cavity 2b.

[0041] Schematically, the number of the first clamping parts and the number of the second clamping parts can be set as needed, for example, can be one, two, three or more. Preferably, the number of the first clamping parts and the number of the second clamping parts are both two, and the two first clamping parts are arranged opposite to each other.

[0042] In one embodiment, combined Figure 1 、 Figure 3 、 Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, a stop groove 24 is formed in the end surface of the cover 2 facing away from the main body cavity 2b, and the accommodating hole 22 is formed at the bottom of the stop groove 24. A stop ring 13 is provided on the outer surface of the connector base 1, and the stop ring 13 is located in the stop groove 24. In this way, when assembling the connector base 1 and the cover 2, the fit between the stop ring 13 and the bottom of the stop groove 24 can be used to limit the insertion depth of the connector base 1, thereby preventing damage to the first clamping portion and components located in the main body cavity 2b due to over-insertion of the connector base 1, thereby effectively improving the reliability of the connection between the connector base 1 and the cover 2.

[0043] In one embodiment, combined Figures 1 to 5 As shown, the connector seat 1 is provided with a through-hole for connection. A partition 15 is provided in the hole for connection. The partition 15 divides the hole for connection into a first hole 14 and a second hole 12. The second hole 12 is connected to the host cavity 2b. The first hole 12 is located on the side of the second hole 14 facing away from the host cavity 2b. A through hole 151 is provided on the partition 15. The through hole 151 connects the first hole 14 and the second hole 12. The first hole 14 is used to insert the connector, and the second hole 12 is used to accommodate the connection end 32 of the adapter board 3. The connector and the connection end 32 are plugged and matched through the through hole 151. In this way, when the connector is inserted into the first hole 14, the connection between the connector and the adapter board 3 can be achieved through the through hole 151, thereby completing the connection between the host and the connector. The provision of the partition 15 can limit the insertion depth of the connector, thereby preventing damage to the connection end 32 in the adapter board 3 due to excessive insertion depth of the connector, which is beneficial to ensuring the safety of various components.

[0044] Furthermore, if Figure 5 As shown, a first clearance groove 153 is formed in the end surface of the partition plate 15 facing the first connection hole 14. The first clearance groove 153 is used to clear the connector housing. Thus, when the connector is inserted into the first connection hole 14, the first clearance groove 153 provides a reliable clearance space for the connector housing to avoid interference between the connector housing and the partition plate 15, thereby ensuring a reliable connection between the connector and the adapter board 3.

[0045] Furthermore, if Figure 5 As shown, the side wall of the first connection hole 14 is provided with a guide protrusion 141. The extension direction of the guide protrusion 141 is the same as that of the first connection hole 14. The guide protrusion 141 is used to mate with the guide groove on the outer surface of the connector. In this way, when plugging the connector, the cooperation between the guide protrusion 141 and the guide groove not only serves as a guide, but also acts as a limiter, preventing the connector from deflecting or slipping after being inserted into the first connection hole 14, thereby improving the reliability of the connection between the connector and the connector seat 1.

[0046] Furthermore, if Figure 4 As shown, a second escape groove 152 is formed in the end surface of the partition plate 15 facing the second connection hole 12. The second escape groove 152 is used to avoid the support plate 31 supporting the connection end 32. In this way, the second escape groove 152 can provide a reliable escape space for the support plate 31 in the adapter plate 3, thereby preventing the connector and the adapter plate 3 from being reliably connected due to interference between the support plate 31 and the partition plate 15.

[0047] The technical features of the above-mentioned embodiments can be combined arbitrarily. In order to make the description concise, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above-mentioned embodiments are described. However, as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features, they should be considered to be within the scope of this specification.

[0048] The above-described embodiments merely represent several implementation methods of the present application. While the descriptions are relatively specific and detailed, they should not be construed as limiting the scope of the patent application. It should be noted that a person of ordinary skill in the art may make various modifications and improvements without departing from the spirit of the present application, and these modifications and improvements fall within the scope of protection of the present application.
