If any, the terms "vertical", "horizontal", "upper", "lower", "left", "right" and similar expressions used in this application are for illustrative purposes only and do not represent the only embodiment.
[0029] A through-the-wall connector provided in one embodiment of the present application is used to be installed through a wall portion of a fixed structure to electrically connect electrical components located on both sides of the wall portion. The through-the-wall connector is installed on the wall portion, with one end of the through-the-wall connector located on one side of the wall portion and the other end extending through the wall portion to the other side of the wall portion. The fixed structure can be a structure such as a housing or bracket of an electronic device, or a structure such as a wall of a building. In other words, the through-the-wall connector is not limited to fixed structures of electronic devices, but can also be installed on the walls of buildings.
[0030] Furthermore, a through hole (not shown in the figure, the same below) may be formed through the wall portion of the fixed structure, and the through-wall connector is inserted into the through hole.
[0031] See Figure 1 and Figure 2 , Figure 1 FIG. 1 shows an axial schematic diagram of a through-wall connection 0 provided in an embodiment of the present application. Figure 2 Shown Figure 1An exploded schematic diagram of a through-the-wall connector. The through-the-wall connector 10 provided in one embodiment of the present application includes a connection base 100, a conductive post 200, and a wire cap 300. The connection base 100 is hollow, and the conductive post 200 is inserted into the connection base 100. The connection base 100 is used to penetrate a wall portion mounted on a fixed structure (not shown, the same below). The two ends of the conductive post 200 are respectively located on opposite sides of the wall portion and are both used for conductive connection cables. The wire cap 300 defines a wire outlet 301, which is connected to one end of the conductive post 200, allowing the cable connected to the conductive post 200 to be led out through the wire outlet 301. A first annular portion is provided at one end of the connection base 100, and a second annular portion is provided on the wire cap 300. The second annular portion is nested with the first annular portion, allowing the wire cap 300 to be rotatably mounted on one end of the connection base 100 to adjust the orientation of the wire outlet 301.
[0032] In the aforementioned wall-burying connector 10, because the wire outlet 301 is connected to one end of the conductive post 200, the wire outlet 301 can lead the cable connected to that end of the conductive post 200 out of the wall-burying connector 10. Furthermore, the wire cap 300 is rotatably mounted on one end of the connector 100, allowing the orientation of the wire outlet 301 to be adjusted. By adjusting the orientation of the wire outlet 301, the position of the wires led out can be flexibly adjusted to accommodate various wiring layouts.
[0033] In one embodiment, the connection base 100 can be configured as an insulator. The connection base 100 is provided with a receiving cavity 102 for the conductive pillar 200 to pass through and install.
[0034] See also Figures 1 to 3 In one embodiment, the first annular portion is configured as an annular groove 101 defined on the outer periphery of the connector 100, and the second annular portion is configured as a locking ring 310. The locking ring 310 engages with the annular groove 101 and can rotate along the groove 101. This simple structure allows the wire cap 300 to rotate smoothly relative to the connector 100, adjusting the direction of wire output to accommodate various wiring layouts. Furthermore, the locking ring 310 can be configured as a complete or incomplete annular element.
[0035] See also Figures 1 to 3In one embodiment, the wire cap 300 is removably connected to the connector 100. Therefore, the wire cap 300 can be removed from the end of the connector 100 to conveniently connect or remove the cable from the conductive post 200. Specifically, removing the wire cap 300 exposes the end of the conductive post 200 relative to the connector 100, facilitating the installation and removal of the cable from the conductive post 200. After installation and removal, the wire cap 300 can be reattached to the connector 100 to cover the conductive post 200. This reduces external interference at the connection between the cable and the conductive post 200 and improves conductive stability.
[0036] See also Figure 2 , combined with Figure 3 In one embodiment, the wire protection cap 300 further includes a cap body 320, with a wire outlet 301 formed on the peripheral wall of the cap body 320. A locking ring 310 is connected to the end of the cap body 320. The arcuate edge of the locking ring 310, facing away from the cap body 320, forms an entrance 302 for the connector 100 to pass through. The locking ring 310 includes a first locking arm 311 and a second locking arm 312, both of which engage with the annular groove 101. That is, the first locking arm 311 and the second locking arm 312 are held within the annular groove 101, allowing the wire protection cap 300 to rotate relative to the connector 100 and remain fixed relative to the connector 100 in other directions. In the circumferential direction around the rotation axis O of the wire protection cap 300, the first locking arm 311 and the second locking arm 312 are separated to form a gap 303, which connects the wire outlet 301 and the entrance 302. In other words, a virtual space exists within the cable cap 300, extending continuously from the end surface (i.e., inlet 302) to the circumferential side (i.e., notch 303 and cable outlet 301). This virtual space facilitates the passage of cables from outside the cable outlet 301 of the cable cap 300 into the cable outlet 301. Consequently, after aligning the cable with the notch 303, the cable cap 300 can be directly inserted into the connector 100. This allows the cable to enter the cable outlet 301 through the notch 303 simultaneously with the cable cap 300 installation, thus facilitating installation of the cable cap 300.
[0037] like Figure 4 In one embodiment, the wire cap 300 is hollow to form a wire cavity 304 , which is connected between the wire outlet 301 and the accommodating cavity 102 , allowing the cable to extend from the conductive column 200 to the wire outlet 301 .
[0038] In one embodiment, at least one of the first locking arm 311 and the second locking arm 312 is elastic. Therefore, during installation and removal of the wire cap 300, the elastic locking arm can be opened to disengage the annular groove 101, facilitating installation and removal of the wire cap 300. Because the free ends of the first locking arm 311 and the second locking arm 312 are spaced apart from each other, they are roughly cantilevered and can be easily opened under force. Furthermore, portions of the side edges of the first and second locking arms 311 and 312 near the cap body 320 are spaced apart from each other, allowing the first and second locking arms 311 and 312 to easily open and close relative to the cap body 320. Furthermore, both the first and second locking arms 311 and 312 can be elastic. Of course, in other embodiments, other methods can be configured to allow the wire cap 300 to be removed relative to the connector 100. For example, the connecting base 100 may be provided with elastic restraints to facilitate the first locking arm 311 and the second locking arm 312 to escape from the slot 220. Alternatively, the wire cap 300 and the connecting base 100 may be provided with mutually cooperating engaging portions, and the engaging portions of the two may cooperate with each other to allow the wire cap 300 and the connecting base 100 to be detachably connected.
[0039] See also Figure 1 In one embodiment, the outer periphery of the wire cap 300 is further provided with anti-slip grooves 321. The extending direction of the anti-slip grooves 321 can be configured to be different from the disassembly direction of the wire cap 300, so that the wire cap 300 can be easily disassembled by holding the area where the anti-slip grooves 321 are located.
[0040] See also Figure 2 and Figure 3 In one embodiment, the connecting seat 100 includes a plate body 110 and a cylinder body 120, the plate body 110 is connected to the outer periphery of the cylinder body 120, and the accommodating cavity 102 is opened in the cylinder body 120. The annular groove 101 can be opened in the outer peripheral wall of one end of the cylinder body 120. The plate body 110 is used to connect with the wall portion. For example, the plate body 110 can be locked to the wall portion by a fastener such as a screw. Furthermore, the connecting seat 100 can also include a reinforcing rib 130, which is connected between the outer wall of the cylinder body 120 and the end face of the plate body 110 to improve the structural strength of the connecting seat 100.
[0041] See also Figure 4 , combined with Figure 2 and Figure 3In one embodiment, the through-the-wall connector 10 further includes a sealing gasket 400, which has a flexible property. A mounting groove 111 is recessed on one side of the plate body 110 facing the wall, and part of the structure of the sealing gasket 400 is arranged in the mounting groove 111, while another part of the structure protrudes from the mounting groove 111, so as to fit tightly against the wall. Since the sealing gasket 400 is arranged in the mounting groove 111, and the mounting groove 111 is arranged on the side of the plate body 110 facing the wall, when the through-the-wall connector 10 is installed on the wall, the sealing gasket 400 is clamped between the plate body 110 and the wall. In this embodiment, a part of the structure of the sealing gasket 400 protrudes from the mounting groove 111, so that the sealing gasket 400 can fully contact the wall and be deformed by being clamped by the plate body 110 and the wall, filling the space between the plate body 110 and the wall, thereby improving the sealing performance. As mentioned above, the wall is provided with a through hole, and the through hole connects the opposite sides of the wall. The sealing gasket 400 provided in the present application can improve the sealing performance at the through-hole and reduce the weakening of the waterproof performance of the electronic device caused by installing the through-wall connector 10 .
[0042] See also Figure 5 and Figure 6 In one embodiment, the plate 110 defines a connection hole 112 for a locking member, such as a screw, to pass through to secure the plate 110 to the wall. The sealing gasket 400 includes a main body 410 and an annular portion 420. The annular portion 420 surrounds the connection hole 112 in its orthographic projection on the plate 110. The annular portion 420 is connected to the main body 410, and a portion of the annular portion 420 circumferentially separates from the main body 410 to form a filling area 401. The filling area 401 provides an extension for the deformed portion of the annular portion 420 during deformation. It will be appreciated that since the locking member passes through the connection hole 112 to secure the plate 110 to the wall, the portion of the sealing gasket 400 near the connection hole 112 (i.e., the annular portion 420) experiences a greater degree of clamping, resulting in a greater amount of deformation of the annular portion 420. Thus, the reserved filling area 401 for the deformed and extended portions of the annular portion 420 and the main body 410 can reduce the likelihood of the deformed and extended portions of the two portions colliding with each other, causing the sealing gasket 400 to bulge relative to the plate 110 and thus compromise the sealing performance. In short, the predetermined spacing between the annular portion 420 and the main body 410 can reduce the likelihood of stress concentration in a localized area of the sealing gasket 400 when compressed, thereby compromised sealing performance. The orthographic projection of the annular portion 420 can be an orthographic projection along the rotation axis O.
[0043] In one embodiment, the number of the connecting holes 112 and the annular portion 420 can both be multiple, and the distribution positions of the annular portions 420 correspond one-to-one with the distribution positions of the connecting holes 112. It is easy to understand that the annular portion 420 is provided with a through hole 421 for the locking member to pass through to connect between the plate body 110 and the wall portion.
[0044] Please continue reading Figure 5 and Figure 6 In one embodiment, the main body 410 is provided with a through-hole 411 for the cylinder 120 to pass through. The main body 410 is provided with a first positioning portion 412, and the outer periphery of the cylinder 120 is provided with a second positioning portion 124. The first positioning portion 412 and the second positioning portion 124 are positioned and matched to position the sealing gasket 400 and the cylinder 120, so as to facilitate the alignment of the annular portion 420 and the connecting hole 112. Furthermore, the first positioning portion 412 can be provided on the inner wall of the through-hole 411 or the outer wall of the main body 410. Furthermore, the first positioning portion 412 can be configured as a groove, and the second positioning portion 124 can be configured as a protrusion.
[0045] In one embodiment, the sealing gasket 400 and the first sealing ring 500 and the second sealing ring mentioned below can be made of insulating and waterproof materials with elastic deformation capabilities such as silicone and rubber.
[0046] Please refer again Figure 4 In one embodiment, a retaining ring 210 protrudes from one end of the conductive post 200, while a recessed outer wall at the other end forms a slot 220. One end of the connector 100 abuts against the side of the retaining ring 210 facing the slot 220, while a locking tab 121 is provided on the inner wall of the other end. This tab abuts against the side of the slot 220 facing the retaining ring 210, thereby defining the axial position of the conductive post 200 and securing it.
[0047] The locking piece 121 is elastic. Before the locking piece 121 and the slot 220 are aligned, the protruding portion of the conductive post 200 relative to the slot 220 pushes against the locking piece 121, causing it to turn outward, allowing the conductive post 200 to pass smoothly within the accommodating cavity 102. When the conductive post 200 is inserted into the position where the locking piece 121 and the slot 220 are aligned, the locking piece 121 snaps into the slot 220, and the retaining ring 210 abuts against the end of the connector 100, securing it.
[0048] See also Figure 4 , combined with Figure 2 In one embodiment, the direction from the limiting ring 210 to the card slot 220 along the axis of the conductive column 200 is recorded as the insertion direction S. The locking plate 121 is provided on the cavity wall of the accommodating cavity 102, and along the insertion direction S, the locking plate 121 gradually deflects into the accommodating cavity 102. Thus, when the conductive column 200 is inserted to the position of the locking plate 121 along the insertion direction S, it can gradually push the locking plate 121 to turn outward. The cavity wall of the accommodating cavity 102 is recessed to provide a avoidance groove 122. In the direction perpendicular to the insertion direction S, the avoidance groove 122 is aligned with the locking plate 121 to provide space for the locking plate 121 to swing. In other words, the provision of the avoidance groove 122 can provide space for the locking plate 121 to turn outward.
[0049] Furthermore, along the insertion direction S, the locking piece 121 can be gradually bent or tilted toward the accommodating cavity 102. The bottom wall of the locking slot 220 can be configured to be curved or tilted to match the tilt angle of the locking piece 121, thereby fitting closely with the locking piece 121, increasing the contact area between the locking piece 121 and the conductive pillar 200, and improving locking stability.
[0050] Furthermore, the number of the locking pieces 121 and the number of the card slots 220 can be multiple, and the multiple locking pieces 121 are used to be engaged with the card slots 220 in a one-to-one correspondence.
[0051] See also Figure 4 , combined with Figure 2 In one embodiment, the wall-thru connector 10 further includes a first sealing ring 500. The first sealing ring 500 is sleeved over the conductive post 200 to tightly contact the inner wall of the connector 100 and the outer wall of the conductive post 200, thereby improving the sealing of the accommodating cavity 102. Furthermore, a first fitting groove 230 may be defined on the outer periphery of the conductive post 200 for installation of the first sealing ring 500. In another embodiment, the first fitting groove 230 may also be defined in the wall of the accommodating cavity 102.
[0052] See also Figure 3 , combined with Figure 6 In one embodiment, the through-wall connector 10 may further include a second sealing ring. A second adapting groove 123 is defined on the outer periphery of the connection base 100. The second sealing ring is installed in the second adapting groove 123 to tightly contact the outer wall of the connection base 100 and the wall of the through hole.
[0053] Please refer again Figure 2 In one embodiment, threaded connections 240 are provided at each end of the conductive post 200 for threaded connection with a cable. Compared to conventional methods of connecting the conductive post 200 to the cable through welding, the threaded connection employed in this embodiment offers advantages such as convenient wiring, easy replacement, and reusability. Furthermore, the mechanical connection provides greater connection stability and retention. It is understood that a fastener such as a copper lug can be used to securely connect the cable to the conductive post 200.
[0054] In one embodiment, the wire protection cap 300 may be provided at one end of the connection base 100 located outside the electronic device.

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.
[0056] 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.
