[0017] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0018] See also Figures 1 to 4The utility model provides a technical solution: a firmly connected automobile connector, comprising a male connector 1 and a female connector 2 plugged into the male connector 1, a card block 4 is provided on the top of the male connector 1, protrusions 5 are provided on the front and rear sides of the card block 4, a first inclined surface 6 is provided on the right side of the card block 4, when the male connector 1 and the female connector 2 are plugged into each other, the elastic buckle 10 will be tilted under the guidance of the first inclined surface 6, so that the card block 4 is easier to be inserted into the card slot 11, a stop block 3 is provided on the left side of the card block 4, the stop block 3 is used to be inserted into the notch 8 to limit the elastic buckle 10 from tilting, the protrusion 5 is inserted into the groove 9, and can also be inserted into the groove 9. In order to limit the elastic buckle 10 from tilting up, thereby preventing the elastic buckle 10 from separating from the block 4, resulting in a loose connection between the male head 1 and the female head 2, or even separation, to ensure the reliability of the connection between the male head 1 and the female head 2, an elastic buckle 10 is provided on the top of the female head 2, and the elastic buckle 10 cooperates with the block 4 to fix the male head 1 and the female head 2 to prevent the two from separating. A card slot 11 is provided in the middle of the elastic buckle 10, and the inner side wall of the card slot 11 is symmetrically provided with a groove 9 that cooperates with the protrusion 5, and the inner side wall of the card slot 11 is also provided with a notch 8 that cooperates with the block 3.

[0019] A second inclined surface 12 is provided on a side of the stop block 3 away from the clamping block 4 . The second inclined surface 12 is used to guide the elastic buckle 10 so that the stop block 3 can be more easily clamped into the notch 8 .

[0020] One end of the elastic buckle 10 is provided with a gripping portion 7 , which facilitates people to pry the elastic buckle 10 .

[0021] Among them, the stop block 3, the clamping block 4, the protrusion 5 and the male head 1 are an integrally molded structure, and the gripping part 7, the elastic buckle 10 and the female head 2 are an integrally molded structure. The integrally molded structure makes production simpler, eliminates the need for assembly operations, improves production efficiency, and the integrally molded structure can also ensure the firmness of the structure.

[0022] The notch 8 , the groove 9 and the card slot 11 are connected.

[0023] The protrusion 5 is a hemispherical structure, which makes it easier for the protrusion 5 to fit into the groove 9 .

[0024] Specifically, when the male connector 1 and the female connector 2 are plugged in, as the male connector 1 and the female connector 2 gradually approach each other, the elastic clip 10 will contact the card block 4, and the elastic clip 10 will gradually tilt up under the guidance of the first inclined surface 6, and then the first inclined surface 6 will move into the card slot 11. At this time, due to the obstruction of the stop block 3, the elastic clip 10 is still in a tilted state, and then the elastic clip 10 is bent downward by hand. Under the guidance of the second inclined surface 12, the elastic clip 10 returns to a horizontal state, the stop block 3 is stuck in the notch 8, and at this time the protrusion 5 is stuck in the groove 9, thereby limiting the elastic clip 10 and preventing the elastic clip 10 from tilting up and separating from the card block 4, ensuring that the male connector 1 and the female connector 2 are firmly connected.
