Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the technical field of connectors, and in particular to a connector with stable connection. Background Technology
[0002] Connectors, as a crucial component of electronic devices, are responsible for transmitting current and signals. The mating design of male plugs and female sockets is particularly common in various electrical connection scenarios. This design greatly facilitates the rapid assembly and disassembly of devices, while ensuring high stability and safety of the connection.
[0003] In existing technology, a connector design includes a male plug and a female socket. The male plug is equipped with multiple prongs, while the female socket has corresponding holes for these prongs to be inserted. To enhance the stability of the connection, a locking block is fixed to the outside of the female socket, and an extension plate is provided on the outside of the male plug. The extension plate has a locking through hole for the locking block to pass through. When the male plug and the female socket are fully mated, the extension plate deforms under force and then returns to its original shape, allowing the locking block to smoothly engage in the locking through hole, thus achieving locking.
[0004] However, this design faces a challenge in practical applications: once the male plug and female socket are connected and left in a corner or concealed location for an extended period, external dust or impurities can easily adhere to the inner wall of the locking through-hole, gradually filling the tiny gap between the locking block and the locking through-hole. When the connector needs to be disassembled, these impurities may prevent the locking block from smoothly disengaging from the locking through-hole. Given that this connector is used in circuits, wiping away dust with a damp cloth or other moist items is not only inconvenient but may also pose a safety hazard, indicating room for improvement. Utility Model Content
[0005] The purpose of this application is to provide a connector with stable connection, solving the problem in the above-mentioned related technologies that external impurities may adhere to the inner wall of the locking through hole, affecting the subsequent disassembly of the connector.
[0006] The connector with stable connection provided in this application adopts the following technical solution:
[0007] A stable connector includes a male plug and a female socket. A plurality of plug blocks are fixed on one side of the male plug, and the female socket has slots for the plug blocks to be inserted. A positioning block is fixed on the outer side of the female socket, and an adjustment plate capable of deformation and recovery is fixed on the outer side of the male plug. A pressing block is fixed on the end of the adjustment plate away from the plug blocks, a portion of the adjustment plate extends to the side of the plug blocks, and a positioning groove for the positioning block to be inserted is formed on the side of the adjustment plate facing the plug blocks.
[0008] By adopting the above technical solution, during the assembly of the male plug and female socket, the user first presses the pressing block to deform and restore the adjusting plate, then inserts the positioning block into the positioning groove on the adjusting plate until the block is fully inserted into the slot, and then stops pressing to reset the adjusting plate. Since the positioning groove is only open on the side near the male plug, the possibility of external dust or other impurities adhering to the inside of the positioning groove is reduced, which facilitates the subsequent disassembly of the male plug and female socket, thereby improving the performance of the connector.
[0009] Optionally, the positioning block has a guide slope on its side edge facing the male plug, and the adjusting plate has a guide slope on its side edge away from the male plug that can abut against the guide slope.
[0010] By adopting the above technical solution, during the insertion of the male plug and female socket, the positioning block is easily inserted into the positioning groove along the guide slope and guide slope due to the cooperative setting of the guide slope and guide slope.
[0011] Optionally, the pressing block has a clearance notch on the side facing the male plug that communicates with the positioning groove.
[0012] By adopting the above technical solution, the opening of the clearance notch on the pressing block can save the raw materials required for processing the male plug, reduce the corresponding production cost, and also reduce the difficulty for users to press the pressing block and the adjustment plate.
[0013] Optionally, the male plug is provided with a sealing plate on its exterior, and a sealing block is fixedly provided on the sealing plate; the sealing plate can abut against the side of the pressing block away from the adjusting plate, and the sealing block can be fixedly inserted into the clearance notch.
[0014] By adopting the above technical solution, when the sealing block is inserted into the clearance notch, the user cannot deform the adjustment plate by pressing the pressing block, thereby reducing the possibility of unauthorized personnel accidentally touching the connector and unlocking it, and improving the safety performance of the connector during use; and the sealing block can seal the opening of the clearance notch, further preventing external dust or other impurities from entering from the opening and adhering to the inner wall of the positioning groove.
[0015] Optionally, the sealing block is fixed with an arc-shaped protrusion, and the inner wall of the clearance notch is provided with an arc-shaped groove for the arc-shaped protrusion to be inserted.
[0016] By adopting the above technical solution, when the sealing block is inserted into the clearance notch, the arc-shaped protrusion on the sealing block is inserted into the arc-shaped groove inside the clearance notch due to the cooperation between the arc-shaped protrusion and the arc-shaped groove, thereby improving the installation stability of the sealing block on the inner wall of the clearance notch.
[0017] Optionally, the sealing block has a first inclined surface on its side edge away from the sealing plate.
[0018] By adopting the above technical solution, it is easier for the sealing block to be inserted into the clearance gap along the first inclined surface, thereby improving the performance of the sealing block.
[0019] Optionally, a guide rod is fixedly provided on the sealing plate, and a support block is fixedly provided on the outer surface of the male plug. The support block has a guide through hole for the guide rod to be inserted and slid.
[0020] By adopting the above technical solution, when the sealing plate slides back and forth along the length of the guide rod, the sealing block and the clearance notch can be inserted and separated. The user does not need to make additional judgments on the alignment of the sealing block and the clearance notch, which reduces the difficulty of inserting the sealing block into the clearance notch and improves the performance of the sealing block during insertion.
[0021] Optionally, a guide protrusion is fixed on the outer side of the sealing plate, and a guide groove is provided on the outer side of the male plug for the guide protrusion to be inserted and slid.
[0022] By adopting the above technical solution, when the sealing plate slides back and forth along the length of the guide rod, due to the cooperation between the guide protrusion and the guide groove, the guide protrusion on the sealing plate slides along the length of the guide groove, thereby improving the stability of the sealing plate when sliding.
[0023] In summary, this application includes at least one of the following beneficial technical effects:
[0024] 1. Since the positioning groove is open only on the side closest to the male plug, the possibility of external dust or other impurities adhering to the inside of the positioning groove is reduced, which facilitates the subsequent separation of the male plug and female socket, thereby improving the performance of the connector.
[0025] 2. When the sealing block is inserted into the clearance notch, the user cannot deform the adjustment plate by pressing the pressing block, thereby reducing the possibility of unauthorized personnel accidentally touching the connector and unlocking it, and improving the safety performance of the connector during use; and the sealing block can seal the opening of the clearance notch, further preventing external dust or other impurities from entering through the opening and adhering to the inner wall of the positioning groove.

[0034] The present application will be further described in detail below with reference to all the accompanying drawings.
[0035] Example 1:
[0036] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 A stable connector includes a male plug 1 and a female socket 2. Eight plug blocks 11 are fixed on one side of the male plug 1, and the female socket 2 has a slot 21 for the plug blocks 11 to be inserted. A positioning block 22 is integrally formed on the outer side of the female socket 2, and an adjustment plate 12 that can be deformed and restored is fixed on the outer side of the male plug 1.
[0037] The end of the adjusting plate 12 away from the insert block 11 is integrally formed with a pressing block 13. A part of the adjusting plate 12 extends to the side of the insert block 11, and the length direction of the adjusting plate 12 is parallel to the length direction of the insert block 11. At the same time, a positioning groove 121 for the positioning block 22 to be inserted is provided on the side of the adjusting plate 12 facing the insert block 11.
[0038] During the assembly of the male plug 1 and the female socket 2, the user can deform and restore the adjustment plate 12 by pressing the pressing block 13, so that the positioning block 22 is inserted into the positioning groove 121, and then stop pressing to reset the adjustment plate 12.
[0039] Reference Figure 3 The positioning block 22 has a guide slope 221 on the side edge facing the male plug 1, and the adjusting plate 12 has a guide slope 122 on the side edge away from the male plug 1 that can abut against the guide slope 221; so that the positioning block 22 can be inserted into the positioning groove 121 along the guide slope 122 and the guide slope 221.
[0040] Reference Figure 3 The pressing block 13 has a clearance notch 131 on the side facing the male plug 1, which communicates with the positioning groove 121. This can save the raw materials required for processing the male plug 1, reduce the corresponding production cost, and reduce the difficulty for users to press the pressing block 13 and the adjustment plate 12.
[0041] The implementation principle of this application embodiment is as follows:
[0042] During the assembly of the male plug 1 and the female socket 2, the user first presses the pressing block 13 to deform and restore the adjusting plate 12. Then, the positioning block 22 is inserted into the positioning groove 121 on the adjusting plate 12 along the guide slope 221 and the guide slope 122 until the plug 11 is fully inserted into the slot 21. Then, the pressing is stopped to reset the adjusting plate 12. Since the positioning groove 121 is only open on the side near the male plug 1, the possibility of external dust or other impurities adhering to the inside of the positioning groove 121 is reduced.
[0043] Example 2:
[0044] Reference Figure 4 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 The difference between this embodiment and Embodiment 1 is that the male plug 1 is provided with a sealing plate 3 on the outside, wherein a sealing block 32 is integrally formed on the side of the sealing plate 3; a first inclined surface 321 is provided on the side edge of the sealing block 32 away from the sealing plate 3; so that the sealing block 32 can be inserted into the clearance notch 131 along the first inclined surface 321.
[0045] When the side of the sealing plate 3 near the sealing block 32 abuts against the side of the pressing block 13 away from the adjusting plate 12, the sealing block 32 can be inserted into the clearance notch 131, and the outer side of the sealing block 32 abuts against the inner wall of the clearance notch 131. When the sealing block 32 is inserted into the clearance notch 131, the user cannot deform the adjusting plate 12 by pressing the pressing block 13, thereby locking and limiting the adjusting plate 12 and reducing the possibility of unauthorized personnel accidentally touching the connector and unlocking it.
[0046] Reference Figure 5 and Figure 6 The sealing block 32 has an integrally formed arc-shaped protrusion 322, wherein the arc length of the cross-sectional shape of the arc-shaped protrusion 322 is a minor arc, and an arc-shaped groove 132 for inserting the arc-shaped protrusion 322 is provided on the inner wall of the clearance notch 131; when the sealing block 32 is inserted into the clearance notch 131, the arc-shaped protrusion 322 is inserted into the arc-shaped groove 132.
[0047] Reference Figure 5 and Figure 6 The sealing plate 3 is fixed with a guide rod 31, and the outer side of the male plug 1 is integrally formed with a support block 14, and the support block 14 is provided with a guide through hole 141 for the guide rod 31 to be inserted and slid. When the sealing plate 3 slides back and forth along the length direction of the guide rod 31, the sealing block 32 and the clearance notch 131 can be inserted and separated.
[0048] Reference Figure 5 and Figure 6 A guide protrusion 33 is fixed on the side of the sealing plate 3 facing the male plug 1, and the length direction of the guide protrusion 33 is parallel to the length direction of the guide rod 31. At the same time, a guide groove 15 is provided on the outer side of the male plug 1 for the guide protrusion 33 to be inserted and slid.
[0049] The implementation principle of this application embodiment is as follows:
[0050] The sealing block 32 can seal the opening of the clearance gap 131, further preventing external dust or other impurities from entering through the opening and adhering to the inner wall of the positioning sink 121. At the same time, the sealing block 32 can lock and limit the adjustment plate 12 by pressing it.
