They are only for the convenience of describing the present invention and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, they cannot be understood as limitations on the present invention.
[0023] In the description of the present invention, unless otherwise clearly defined, terms such as setting, installing, connecting, and fixing should be understood in a broad sense, and technicians in the relevant technical field can reasonably determine the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention based on the specific content of the technical solution.
[0024] Please refer to Figure 1-4 As shown, a connector with an unlocking structure includes a connector body 1, the connector body including a socket 2, and a plug 3 fixedly plugged into the socket 2, wherein the socket 2 and the plug 3 are fixed by a locking mechanism 4; wherein the connector body 1 also includes an unlocking component 5 used in conjunction with the locking mechanism 4, and when the unlocking component 5 is in operation, the locking mechanism 4 can be unlocked to separate the socket 2 from the plug 3.
[0025] Specifically, the plug is inserted into the socket, and the socket and the plug are fixedly connected by a locking mechanism. The locking mechanism can only be unlocked by a separate unlocking component, and the plug can then be pulled out of the socket. This allows connectors with a locking mechanism to be plugged and unplugged with the help of a corresponding unlocking component, reducing the risk of non-operating personnel performing plugging and unplugging operations and improving the safety of the connector.
[0026] In this embodiment, the locking mechanism 4 is provided with a socket 6 for the unlocking component 5 to be pressed and inserted.
[0027] Specifically, the unlocking component is inserted into the socket, and the locking mechanism is unlocked by pressing the unlocking component to complete the plugging and unplugging operation between the socket and the plug.
[0028] In this embodiment, the locking mechanism 4 includes a buckle 401 disposed on the outer periphery of the end of the plug 3, and an elastic hook 402 disposed on the end of the socket 2 and adapted to the buckle 401. The socket 6 is disposed on the buckle 401. The elastic hook 402 is disposed inside the buckle 401 and expands outward.
[0029] The unlocking component 5 includes an inserting portion 501 inserted into the inserting hole 6 and a pressing portion 502 for pressing.
[0030] Specifically, the elastic hook is inserted into the buckle. Since the elastic hook is expanded outward after being built in, the elastic hook is engaged with the inner wall of the buckle, thus completing the fixation of the socket and the plug. When the socket and the plug need to be separated, the insertion portion of the unlocking component is inserted into the socket, and the unlocking component is pressed, so that the elastic hook is squeezed inward, so that the elastic hook is separated from the buckle, and the plug can be pulled out of the socket.
[0031] Among them, the socket can be set at the top of the buckle, so that the unlocking part is pressed downward to unlock, and the socket can also be set on the side of the buckle, so that the two sides of the inserting part on the unlocking part are pressed inward to complete the unlocking. It is preferred to set the socket at the top of the buckle.
[0032] In this embodiment, a first inclined surface 7 is provided on the outer side of the end of the elastic hook 402 , and a second inclined surface 8 is provided on the inner side of the insertion portion 501 that abuts against the elastic hook 402 . The first inclined surface 7 and the second inclined surface 8 are arranged in parallel.
[0033] Specifically, a first inclined surface is provided on the elastic hook, and a second inclined surface parallel to the first inclined surface is provided on the insertion portion, so that when the insertion portion is inserted into the insertion hole from the upper end, the insertion portion can better contact the end of the elastic hook, and the elastic hook is provided with an inclined surface on one side to reserve space for the insertion portion to be inserted, so that it can be effectively pressed down to unlock.
[0034] In this embodiment, the cross-section of the inserting portion 501 gradually increases from the bottom end upward.
[0035] Specifically, the cross-section of the insertion portion gradually increases upwards, so that when the unlocking component is pressed downwards, an inward squeezing force can be more effectively applied to the elastic hook, thereby enabling faster unlocking.
[0036] In this embodiment, the insertion hole 6 may be a through-hole design.
[0037] Specifically, setting the jack to be through can prevent the plug-in portion from being too long and thus preventing the locking mechanism from being effectively unlocked.
[0038] In this embodiment, an annular groove 9 is provided on the plug 3 , and a sealing ring 10 is provided in the annular groove.
[0039] Specifically, a sealing ring is sleeved in the annular groove, and the sealing ring is made of rubber and plays a sealing role.
[0040] In this embodiment, an annular protrusion 11 is provided on the outer periphery of the end of the socket 2 , a plurality of grooves 12 are provided on the annular protrusion 11 , and a fixing portion 13 adapted to the grooves 12 is provided on the inner wall of the plug 3 .
[0041] Specifically, the annular protrusion cooperates with the groove to play a role of limiting and fixing, thereby preventing relative rotation between the socket and the plug, and better fixing the elastic hook and the buckle.
[0042] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present application and is not intended to limit the scope of implementation of the present application. Other embodiments whose principles and basic structures are the same or similar to those of the present application are within the scope of protection of the present application.
