[0025] In order to fully understand the present application, detailed steps and detailed structures will be presented in the following description to illustrate the technical solution of the present application. The preferred embodiments of the present application are described in detail below. However, in addition to these detailed descriptions, the present application may also have other implementation methods.

[0026] Please refer to Figure 1-Figure 3 As shown, a cable connector according to a preferred embodiment of the present application is used to secure a cable 3. The connector includes a connector assembly 1 and a buckle 2. The connector assembly 1 includes an upper base 12 and a lower base 11. The lower base 11 includes a first clamping portion 111 and a first plugging portion 112 connected to the first clamping portion 111. The first plugging portion 112 is provided with an insertion port 1122. The upper base 12 includes a second clamping portion 121 and a second plugging portion 122 connected to the second clamping portion 121. The second plugging portion 122 is adapted to pass through the insertion port 1122 to plug and secure the upper base 12 and the lower base 11. A first clamping space 13 is provided between the first clamping portion 111 and the second clamping portion 121. The buckle 2 is located above the connector assembly 1. The buckle 2 includes a third clamping portion 21 and a third plug-in portion 22 connected to the third clamping portion 21. The third plug-in portion 22 is suitable for inserting into the connecting seat assembly 1 to plug and fix the buckle 2 to the connecting seat assembly 1. There is a second clamping space 23 between the third clamping portion 21 and the second clamping portion 121. The cable 3 is configured so that its end passes through the second clamping space 23 and the first clamping space 13 in sequence to be clamped and fixed, thereby providing double clamping and fixation for the cable 3; and after the cable 3 is bent, it is clamped in the first clamping space 13 and the second clamping space 23 to disperse stress, improve the strength and stability of the connection, reduce the risk of breakage of the cable 3 during use, extend its service life, and ensure the stability of signal transmission.

[0027] It's worth noting that in this embodiment, the diameter of each cable 3 is 1 mm, which increases conductivity and reduces the risk of cable 3 overload. This helps improve the cable's carrying capacity, conductivity, and stability. Furthermore, the larger wire diameter reduces the cable's resistance and power loss during current transmission, while also providing a larger heat dissipation area. This reduces the risk of overheating and overcurrent, improving the safety and reliability of the cable 3.

[0028] In this embodiment, the first plug-in portion 112 also includes a first supporting surface, and the second plug-in portion 122 also includes a second supporting surface. The first supporting surface and the second supporting surface abut against each other. The supporting structure can prevent the upper base 12 and the lower base 11 from relative displacement after plugging in, thereby ensuring the connection quality of the cable connector.

[0029] The lower base 11 also includes a protrusion 113 disposed on the first plug-in portion 112, located above the plug-in port 1122. The third plug-in portion 22 includes a hook 221 that mates with the protrusion 113, with the hook 221 abutting against the protrusion 113. This arrangement provides the advantage of more securely securing the buckle 2 to the connector assembly 1, preventing it from becoming loose during use. Furthermore, the engagement of the buckle 2 with the protrusion 113 through the hook 221 makes the entire connector structure more compact. Specifically, the hook 221 has a third abutting surface, and the protrusion 113 has a fourth abutting surface that mates with the third abutting surface, with the third and fourth abutting surfaces abutting against each other.

[0030] The second retaining portion 121 also includes a first protrusion 1212 that protrudes toward the first retaining portion 111. The length of the first protrusion 1212 is equal to or less than the length of the first retaining space 13. The third retaining portion 21 also includes a second protrusion 211 that protrudes toward the second retaining portion 121. The length of the second protrusion 211 is equal to or less than the length of the second retaining space 23. The provision of the first protrusion 1212 and the second protrusion 211 prevents the cable 3 from being excessively squeezed by the buckle 2 and the upper base 12 and thus damaged when the cable 3 is retained in the first retaining space 13 and the second retaining space 23.

[0031] Taking the second holding space 23 as an example, specifically, when a force is applied to the buckle 2, the buckle 2 squeezes the cable 3 in the second holding space 23. Since the external insulation part of the cable 3 can produce a certain deformation, the cable 3 is fixed; when too much force is applied to the buckle 2, the second protrusion 211 abuts against the upper end of the second holding part 121 to prevent the buckle 2 from excessively squeezing the cable 3.

[0032] As described above, the first holding portion 111 has a first holding surface, and the second holding portion 121 has a second holding surface, and at least one of the first holding surface and the second holding surface is serrated. In this embodiment, both the first holding surface and the second holding surface are serrated, that is, both the first holding surface and the second holding surface have a plurality of trapezoidal slots. The circular cable 3 is held in the plurality of trapezoidal slots, increasing the friction between the cable 3 and the first holding space 13, thereby more firmly fixing the cable 3 and preventing it from loosening.

[0033] The above is only a specific implementation of the present application. Any other improvements made based on the concept of the present application are considered to be within the scope of protection of the present application.
