[0020] like Figure 1-Figure 3 As shown, the utility model discloses an anti-vibration SMP connector structure, including a snap screw sleeve 1 for connecting to a docking port, a radio frequency coaxial connector is concentrically arranged in the snap screw sleeve 1, the radio frequency coaxial connector includes an outer shell 2, a center conductor 3, an insulating medium 4 and a welding tail sleeve 5 arranged on the side of the outer shell 2 away from the docking port, the cable is connected to the center conductor 3 after passing through the welding tail sleeve 5, the snap screw sleeve 1 is provided with a limiting step 6 at the other end opposite to the docking port, the outer shell 2 is provided with a boss 7 corresponding to the limiting step 6 in the circumferential direction, a floating spring 8 is provided between the boss 7 and the end face of the limiting step 6, after the radio frequency connector is subjected to axial force, it floats along the extension and contraction direction of the floating spring 8, and a second boss 9 for limiting the end of the snap screw sleeve 1 is provided on the welding tail sleeve 5.
[0021] After the connector is assembled, the elastic force exerted by the floating spring 8 causes the end of the snap screw sleeve 1 to abut against the second boss 9, thereby ensuring the compactness of the structure, so that the docking end of the RF connector can still be blindly plugged into the docking port, and has axial floating capability, is compatible with dimensional deviations, and reduces connection difficulty.
[0022] Specifically, the side wall of the snap screw sleeve 1 of the utility model is provided with a card slot 10 for engaging with the docking port, and the snap screw sleeve 1 is provided with a through groove 11 matching the docking port between the docking end face and the card slot 10. The docking port enters the snap screw sleeve 1 through the through groove 11, and the snap screw sleeve 1 and the docking port are connected by cooperating with the card slot 10 through the pin provided on the side wall of the docking port; the docking port enters from the through groove 11, and when it reaches the area where the card slot 10 is located, the pin and the through groove 11 are staggered in the circumferential direction by rotation, thereby realizing locking and fixing of the connection, and being able to ensure the stability of the connector docking and signal transmission in a vibration environment.
[0023] In addition, in order to cooperate with the axial floating of the RF connector, in the embodiment of the present invention, as a preference, the card slot 10 of the present invention adopts a V-shaped structure, and the card slot 10 forms a space for the pin to move when the RF connector floats relative to the docking port in the axial direction of the snap screw sleeve 1, so that the RF connector can be adjusted in position within a certain axial range to meet the connection requirements of docking ports with different installation precision.
