[0028] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand the technical solution of this utility model, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0029] This utility model provides, for example Figure 1-4 The present invention relates to an easy-locking radio frequency connector, including a connector plug end 1 and a connector socket end 2. The connector plug end 1 is provided with a connector seat 3 on the outside and an inner conductor 4 on the inside. The connector socket end 2 is provided with a plurality of bayonet components 5 on the housing. The connector seat 3 is provided with a plurality of corresponding bayonet blocks 31 on the connector seat 5. The bottom periphery of the connector seat 3 is also provided with a fixing component 6.

[0030] Specifically, the bayonet assembly 5 includes an L-shaped positioning bayonet 51 disposed at the end of the connector socket end 2, a limiting block 52 is provided on one side of the L-shaped positioning bayonet 51, and a fixing bayonet 53 is provided on one side of the limiting block 52.

[0031] Reference Figure 3The connecting seat 3 is provided with multiple mounting slots 32, and a locking block 31 is installed in the multiple mounting slots 32. A spring 33 is provided between the locking block 31 and the mounting slot 32. The locking block 31 passes through the L-shaped positioning slot 51 and is subjected to force by the limiting block 52, and finally locks into the fixing slot 53.

[0032] Reference Figure 4 The fixing component 6 is secured at the bottom of the L-shaped positioning slot 51.

[0033] In this embodiment, the connector plug end 1 is aligned with the connector socket end 2. Since multiple bayonet assemblies 5 and the locking blocks 31 are all concentrically arranged, the alignment operation is more convenient and accurate. Then, the plug end 1 is inserted toward the socket end 2. At this time, the upper inclined surface of the locking block 31 on the connector plug end 3 (because one side of its upper inclined surface faces the rotational installation direction of the connector socket end 2) will slide along the inner wall of the L-shaped positioning bayonet 51 of the connector socket end 2.

[0034] Specifically, when the locking block 31 reaches the turning point of the L-shaped positioning slot 51, due to the spring 33 between the locking block 31 and the mounting groove 32, the locking block 31 will maintain contact with the inner wall of the L-shaped positioning slot 51 under the action of the spring 33. Rotating the connector plug end 1, the locking block 31 is forced by the limiting block 52 and continues to move along one side of the limiting block 52 under the elastic force of the spring 33, eventually locking into the fixed slot 53. During this process, the fixing component 6 on the bottom periphery of the connector base 3 also begins to function. Because the telescopic block 62 is wedge-shaped with its upper inclined side facing the rotational installation direction of the connector socket end 2, it moves along the bottom end of the L-shaped positioning slot 51 as the plug end 1 rotates, compressing the telescopic spring 63 between the bottom of the telescopic block 62 and the telescopic groove 61. When the locking block 31 is fully locked into the fixed slot 53, the telescopic block 62, under the elastic force of the telescopic spring 63, locks into the bottom end of the L-shaped positioning slot 51, completing the entire connection process.

[0035] Specifically, the fixing component 6 includes a telescopic groove 61 located on the outer periphery of the bottom of the connecting seat 3. A telescopic block 62 is installed in the telescopic groove 61. Multiple sets of telescopic springs 63 are provided between the bottom of the telescopic block 62 and the telescopic groove 61. The telescopic block 62 moves up and down in the telescopic groove 61.

[0036] Specifically, the inner wall of the telescopic groove 61 is recessed inward with a positioning groove 64, and the bottom of the telescopic block 62 is extended outward with a positioning block 65. The positioning block 65 moves up and down in the positioning groove 64, and the bottom of the telescopic block 62 is provided with a groove. The telescopic block 62 is wedge-shaped as a whole, with one side of its upper inclined surface facing the rotational installation direction of the connector socket end 2, and it is positioned in conjunction with the L-shaped positioning bayonet 51.

[0037] Specifically, the inner wall of the mounting groove 32 has recessed grooves 34 around its perimeter, and the bottom of the locking block 31 has outward extending moving strips 35 around its perimeter. The moving strips 35 cooperate with the grooves 34, and the locking block 32 is wedge-shaped as a whole, with one side of its upper inclined surface facing the rotational installation direction of the connector socket end 2 and cooperating with the fixed locking slot 53.

[0038] Reference Figure 1-2 The inner wall of the connector socket end 2 is attached to the outer wall of the connector seat 3, and the size of the locking block 31 matches the size of the fixed bayonet 53 and the L-shaped positioning bayonet 51, and the size of the telescopic block 62 matches the bottom size of the L-shaped positioning bayonet 51.

[0039] Specifically, multiple bayonet components 5 and card blocks 31 are all arranged concentrically.

[0040] Specifically, multiple anti-slip protrusions 7 are provided on the outer walls of both the connector plug end 1 and the connector socket end 2.

[0041] In this embodiment, when disassembly is required, an outward force is first applied to the fixing component 6 at the bottom of the connecting seat 3. Since there are positioning blocks 65 extending outward around the bottom of the telescopic block 62, and positioning grooves 64 recessed inward on the inner wall of the telescopic groove 61, the positioning blocks 65 move upward within the positioning grooves 64, and the telescopic block 62 moves upward within the telescopic groove 61, compressing the telescopic spring 63, causing the telescopic block 62 to disengage from the bottom end of the L-shaped positioning slot 51.

[0042] Specifically, an outward pulling force is applied to the connector plug end 1 to overcome the engagement between the locking block 31 and the fixed latch 53, as well as the elastic force of the spring 33. Since there are moving strips 35 extending outward around the bottom of the locking block 31, and the inner wall of the mounting groove 32 has recessed grooves 34, the locking block 31 moves stably within the mounting groove 32 and disengages from the fixed latch 53, thereby allowing the plug end 1 to be pulled out from the socket end 2.

[0043] In this embodiment, through the connection operation described above, utilizing the cooperation between the locking block 31 and the bayonet assembly 5, along with the auxiliary fixation of the fixing component 6, the entire connection process requires no complex tools and is simple and quick to operate. Furthermore, due to the concentric arrangement of the bayonet assembly 5 and the locking block 31, and the precise cooperation of each component, the connection accuracy is very high, ensuring the initial alignment accuracy of the RF signal transmission. The locking block 31 engages with the fixing bayonet 53, and the telescopic block 62 engages with the bottom end of the L-shaped positioning bayonet 51. This double-fixing structure makes the connector plug end 1 and socket end 2 very secure after connection. During use, even under certain external pulling or vibration, it is not easy to loosen or disconnect, ensuring the stability of the RF signal transmission.

[0044] In this embodiment, the structural design of the fixing component 6 and the locking block 31 makes the disassembly operation relatively easy. Each fixing structure can be released by simply applying external force, thereby quickly pulling the plug end 1 out of the socket end 2, facilitating equipment maintenance, replacement, or reconfiguration.

[0045] Specifically, during the disassembly process, the cooperative structure between the components allows each component to move in a predetermined direction when external force is applied, reducing the possibility of component damage due to forced disassembly and improving the service life of the RF connector.

[0046] The foregoing description only illustrates certain exemplary embodiments of the present invention. Undoubtedly, those skilled in the art can modify the described embodiments in various ways without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Therefore, the above drawings and descriptions are illustrative in nature and should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of the claims of the present invention.
