[0052] In this embodiment, the socket 2 is provided with a plurality of pins, and the external indicator light plug 3 is provided with a plurality of jacks. The socket 2 includes a socket body, pins 204, and a cylindrical protrusion 203. The socket body includes a sleeve 202 and a base 201. One end of the sleeve 202 is fixedly connected to the base 201, and the other end is provided with an opening. The base 201 is fixedly connected to the node outer shell 1. The sleeve 202 has a pin 204 inserted axially inside. The pin 204 passes through a through-hole on the base 201 and extends into the node outer shell 1 to connect to the circuit inside the node outer shell. The pin 204 is fixedly connected to the base 201.
[0053] The cylindrical protrusion 203 has a through hole in the middle thereof for the insertion pin 204 to pass through. The cylindrical protrusion 203 is sleeved outside the insertion pin 204 and connected to the base.
[0054] The external indicator light plug 3 includes a plug body 302, which has an axially arranged inner hole 3024, into which a socket 307 made of a conductive material is inserted. An end of the inner hole 3024 near the socket is provided with a cylindrical hole groove 30241 that cooperates with the cylindrical protrusion 203, and an annular protrusion 30242 extending inwardly from the inner wall of the cylindrical hole groove 30241.
[0055] When the socket 2 is plugged into the external indicator light plug 3, the pin 204 is inserted into the jack 307, the cylindrical protrusion 203 is inserted into the cylindrical hole 30241 and squeezes the annular protrusion 30242, and the cylindrical protrusion 203 and the annular protrusion 30242 are interference fit;
[0056] The sealing of the socket 2 and the external indicator light plug 3 is achieved, the structure is simple, the sealing effect is good, and the sealing effect can be guaranteed when used above water or underwater.
[0057] In this embodiment, a plurality of annular protrusions 30242 are provided on the cylindrical hole groove 30241 along its axial direction to further ensure the sealing effect.
[0058] In this embodiment, the socket and the cylindrical protrusion on the socket are made of hard PC material, and the plug body is made of soft polyurethane material, so that the cylindrical protrusion 203 inserted into the cylindrical hole 20341 can squeeze and press the annular protrusion 30242 to ensure the sealing effect.
[0059] In this embodiment, the plug body is formed by thermoplastic injection molding using polyurethane material.
[0060] The number of pins on the socket corresponds to the number of jacks of the external indicator light plug and is set according to specific needs. In this embodiment, a six-core plug is taken as an example.
[0061] The cylindrical protrusion 203 includes a cylindrical section and a guide section, which are coaxially arranged and connected. The guide section is close to the plug-in end of the pin 204. The setting of the guide section facilitates the cylindrical protrusion 203 to be smoothly inserted into the cylindrical hole 30241.
[0062] In this embodiment, the cylindrical hole groove 30241 also includes a cylindrical section and a guide section. The cylindrical section of the cylindrical hole groove 30241 cooperates with the cylindrical section of the cylindrical protrusion 203, and the guide section of the cylindrical hole groove 30241 cooperates with the guide section of the cylindrical protrusion 203. The guide section can adopt a hemispherical, frustum-shaped, conical or other structures, and is provided with a guiding slope to play a guiding role during insertion.
[0063] The external indicator light plug 3 further includes a locking nut 301 and an axial limiter. The locking nut 301 is sleeved on the outside of the plug body 302 and is axially limited by the axial limiter and can rotate circumferentially.
[0064] The outer wall of the sleeve 202 of the socket 2 is provided with an external thread 2021. When the socket 2 is plugged into the external indicator light plug 3, the internal thread of the locking nut 301 is threadedly connected with the external thread 2021 on the outer wall of the sleeve 202 and drives the plug body 302 to move axially so that the pin 204 is tightly plugged into the socket 307.
[0065] The inner wall of the sleeve 202 is provided with one of the guide groove 2022 and the raised guide bar 3025 extending along its axial direction, and the outer wall of the plug body 302 is provided with the other of the guide groove 2022 and the raised guide bar 3025 extending along its axial direction. The guide groove 2022 and the raised guide bar 3025 are slidably matched to ensure that when the locking nut 301 rotates, the plug body 302 can move along the axial direction to ensure the tightening effect of the pin and the socket.
[0066] In this embodiment, a plurality of guide grooves 2022 are formed on the inner wall of the sleeve 202 at intervals along its circumference, and a plurality of raised guide strips 3025 are formed on the outer wall of the plug body 302 at intervals extending outward along its circumference.
[0067] The axial limiter includes a limit block and a retaining spring 304. An annular groove 3021 is formed on the outer wall of the plug body 302 along its circumference. The limit block is sleeved on the annular groove 3021. The annular groove 3021 and the plug body 302 form an annular front limit surface 30261 and a rear limit surface 30262.
[0068] The locking nut 301 includes a threaded section 3011, an intermediate section, and a limiting section 3012. The threaded section 3011, the intermediate section, and the limiting section 3012 are arranged coaxially in sequence. The inner diameter of the intermediate section is smaller than the inner diameters of the limiting section 3012 and the threaded section 3011. An annular clamping block limiting surface 3013 is formed between the limiting section 3012 and the intermediate section. A retaining ring groove is formed on the inner wall of the retaining section 3012, and the retaining ring 304 is retained in the retaining ring groove.
[0069] The cross-section of the limit block is stepped. The limit block includes a front limit block 3031, a middle limit block 3032, and a rear limit block 3033. The front end of the middle limit block 3032 is connected to the front limit block 3031, and the rear end of the middle limit block 3032 is connected to the rear limit block 3033. The front end of the middle limit block 3032 cooperates with the block limit surface 3013, and the rear end of the middle limit block 3032 cooperates with the rear limit surface 30262 of the plug body.
[0070] The front end surface of the front limit block 3031 cooperates with the front limit surface 30261 of the plug body, and the rear end surface of the rear limit block 3033 cooperates with the retaining spring 304;
[0071] By means of the interference between the retaining spring 304 and the rear end face of the rear limit block 3033, the interference between the middle limit block 3032 and the block limit surface 3013, the interference between the middle limit block 3032 and the rear limit surface 30262 of the annular groove, and the interference between the front limit block 3031 and the front limit surface 30261 of the annular groove, the locking nut 301 and the plug body 302 can rotate relative to each other in the circumferential direction but be limited in the axial direction.
[0072] The overall height of the front limit block 3031 and the middle limit block 3032 is smaller than the height of the annular groove 3021 so as to provide an axial adjustment gap for easy insertion and removal.
[0073] The limiting block includes two semicircular blocks 303, which are docked and clamped in the annular groove 3021, making installation and disassembly convenient.
[0074] The plug body 302 includes a plug-in section, an intermediate limiting section, an axial limiting section and a lamp bead installation section. The plug-in section, the intermediate limiting section, the axial limiting section and the lamp bead installation section are coaxially connected in sequence. When the socket 2 is plugged into the external indicator light plug 3, the sleeve 202 of the socket 2 is inserted between the plug-in section and the threaded section 3011 of the locking nut 301. The outer diameter of the intermediate limiting section is matched with the inner diameter of the intermediate section of the locking nut. The axial limiting section forms a circumferential annular groove 3021. The lamp bead installation section is used to install the luminous lamp bead 306. The setting of the intermediate limiting section of the plug body ensures the stability of the matching between the locking nut 301 and the plug body 302.
[0075] In this embodiment, a transparent light guide column 305 is fixed inside the lamp bead installation section, and the transparent light guide column 305 is sleeved on the outside of the luminous lamp bead 306. The transparent light guide column 305 partially exposes the lamp bead installation section to allow the light of the luminous lamp bead 306 to penetrate the outside of the plug body 302. The operator can judge the current status of the submarine sensing node by the luminous state of the transparent light guide column 305, and take corresponding solutions in time according to the prompts.
[0076] In this embodiment, the inner diameter of the locking nut threaded section 3011 is set to be larger than the inner diameter of the middle section, so that the distance between the locking nut threaded section 3011 and the plug section of the plug body 302 is sufficient to allow the socket sleeve 202 to be inserted.
[0077] In this embodiment, the axial limit member adopts the cooperation of the limit block and the retaining spring, but is not limited to this. Other structures can also be used to achieve axial limitation of the locking nut and the plug body without affecting the circumferential rotation. The axial limit member includes a limit block, and the locking nut 301 includes a threaded section 3011 and a limit section 3012. One of the outer wall of the plug body 302 and the inner wall of the locking nut limit section 3012 is provided with an annular groove along its circumference, and the other one of the outer wall of the plug body 302 and the inner wall of the locking nut limit section 3012 is connected to the limit block, and the limit block is engaged with the annular groove; so as to achieve relative circumferential rotation of the locking nut and the plug body but axial limitation.
[0078] In this embodiment, a jack skeleton plate 3022 is fixed inside the plug body 302. The jack skeleton plate 3022 is made of hard PC material through hot injection molding, and multiple jacks are injection-molded into one piece with the jack skeleton plate at a specific interval; this ensures that the jacks 307 can be fixed at a specific interval without tilting or displacement relative to each other, and further ensures that there will be no deformation, dislocation, bending, and other problems when plugged into the socket, thereby ensuring reliable circuit connection and sealing effect.
[0079] In this embodiment, a multi-hole wiring plate 3023 is fixed inside the plug body 302 , and the jack 307 is electrically connected to the pins of the light-emitting lamp bead through the wiring on the multi-hole wiring plate 3023 .
[0080] like Figure 9As shown, the light-emitting lamp adopts a two-pin light-emitting diode. The socket 1 3071 in the plug body 302 is connected to the output pin 1 of the control chip of the internal circuit of the submarine sensing node through a pin and draws power, and is electrically connected to the positive pole of the light-emitting lamp 306 through a series diode and a voltage-dropping resistor in turn. The negative pole of the light-emitting lamp 306 is electrically connected to the socket 3 3073, and the socket 3 3073 is connected to the output pin 3 of the control chip of the internal circuit of the submarine sensing node through a pin, forming a complete loop; the status of the submarine sensing node is fed back through the on and off status of the light-emitting lamp 306, and the light-emitting lamp 306 is powered by the internal power supply of the submarine sensing node, which reduces the need to add an external power supply or battery replacement to the external indicator light plug.
[0081] like Figure 10 As shown, the light-emitting lamp bead 306 adopts a three-pin light-emitting diode. The socket 1 3071 in the plug body 302 is connected to the output pin 1 of the control chip of the internal circuit of the submarine sensing node through a pin and takes power. The socket 1 3071 is connected to one of the positive pins of the light-emitting lamp bead 306 through a series diode and a voltage drop resistor. The socket 2 3072 is connected to the output pin 2 of the control chip of the internal circuit of the submarine sensing node through a pin and takes power. The socket 2 3072 is connected to the output pin 30 of the control chip of the internal circuit of the submarine sensing node through a pin and takes power. 6 is connected to the other positive pin, the negative pin of the light-emitting lamp is connected to the jack three 3073, and the jack three 3073 is grounded to form a complete loop; the chip pin connected to the jack one 3071 drives the light-emitting lamp 306 to emit red light according to the normally closed high level or flashing high level output by the internal power detection module of the submarine sensing node. When the power is between 40% and 100%, the light-emitting lamp 306 is on, when the power is between 10% and 40%, the light-emitting lamp 306 flashes, and when the power is less than 10%, the light-emitting lamp 306 is in an off state;
[0082] The chip pin connected to the second jack 3072 drives the light-emitting bead 306 to emit green light according to the normally closed high level or flashing high level output by the internal storage capacity detection module of the submarine sensing node. When the storage capacity is between 50% and 100%, the light-emitting bead 306 is in an off state; when the storage capacity is between 20% and 50%, the light-emitting bead 306 is in a flashing state; when the storage capacity is less than 20%, the light-emitting bead 306 is in a constantly on state;
[0083] The status of the submarine sensing node is fed back through the color changes, on and off, and flashing of the luminous lamp beads. At the same time, the luminous lamp beads are powered by the internal power supply of the submarine sensing node, which reduces the need to add an external power supply or battery replacement to the external indicator light plug.
[0084] The number of pins and the luminous color of the light-emitting lamp beads are not limited to this and can be set according to actual use needs.
[0085] When using this utility model:

During the rotation of the locking nut 301, the plug body 302 is driven to move axially along the guide groove 2022, and the pin 204 is inserted into the socket 307 through the cylindrical hole 30241. The cylindrical protrusion 203 outside the pin 204 is inserted into the cylindrical hole 30241 and squeezes the annular protrusion 30242 on the cylindrical hole 30241. The pin 204 contacts the socket 307 and forms a complete circuit with the luminous lamp bead 306. The current status of the submarine sensing node is judged by the on and off and flashing of the luminous lamp bead 306.
