Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of socket structures, and more particularly to a socket structure. Background Technology
[0002] In the current technological field, the crown spring design in socket assemblies generally suffers from the problem of being non-replaceable or difficult to replace, leading to increased maintenance costs in the later stages. This problem is particularly prominent in round hole socket assemblies. As a key component of the connector, the performance of the crown spring directly affects the overall electrical performance, durability, and key indicators such as insertion and extraction force of the connector.
[0003] However, in some scenarios, traditional edge-sealed socket assemblies use stainless steel metal edge-sealing designs, which require the use of specific jigs for press-fitting. Furthermore, the tight fit between the crown spring and the edge-sealing after press-fitting makes the disassembly of the crown spring extremely inconvenient, and even almost impossible to achieve non-destructive disassembly.
[0004] In other scenarios, the crown spring is fixed to the socket assembly using high-precision laser welding technology. The disadvantage of this method is obvious: once the welding is completed, the crown spring becomes an inseparable whole, and any replacement or adjustment of the crown spring means that re-welding is required.
[0005] In other scenarios, while using a slot to house the crown spring socket assembly simplifies the crown spring installation process to some extent, making installation easier, it presents numerous challenges in the design and manufacturing of the slot. Due to the tiny size and complex shape requirements of the slot, ensuring machining accuracy is difficult, and measurement becomes extremely challenging. Furthermore, although crown spring installation is relatively simple, disassembly and replacement become exceptionally difficult due to the limitations of the slot structure, potentially even damaging the slot or the crown spring itself.
[0006] Therefore, this application studies a socket structure that allows the crown spring to be easily installed and disassembled, saving maintenance costs. Utility Model Content
[0007] In order to facilitate the installation and removal of the crown spring and save maintenance costs, this application provides a socket structure.
[0008] This application provides a socket structure, which adopts the following technical solution:
[0009] A socket structure includes a socket body, a crown spring, and a fixing member. The socket body has an installation groove and forms an abutment portion. The crown spring extends into the installation groove and abuts against the abutment portion at one end. The fixing member abuts against the side of the crown spring away from the abutment portion and is detachably connected to the socket body.
[0010] By adopting the above technical solution, the contact between the abutment and the fixing member at both ends of the crown spring can ensure the stability of the crown spring. The detachable connection between the fixing member and the socket body allows the crown spring to be easily disassembled and replaced without damaging other components. This design greatly reduces maintenance costs and shortens the maintenance cycle.
[0011] Optionally, the fastener has a fixing groove, with a pressing part and a fixing part formed on both sides of the fixing groove, and a plug-in part connected to the socket body. The plug-in part is inserted into the fixing groove, the pressing part presses against the crown spring, and the fixing part is detachably connected to the socket body.
[0012] Optionally, the inner diameter of the plug part is larger than the inner diameter of the socket body, and a relief groove is formed between the plug part and the socket body that communicates with the relief groove. The pressing part abuts against the crown spring, and the other part abuts against the bottom wall of the relief groove.
[0013] Optionally, during installation, the inner wall surface of the fastener and the inner wall surface of the crown spring are on the same plane.
[0014] Optionally, the outer wall of the plug-in part is provided with a first snap-fit part, and the fixing part is provided with a second snap-fit part, and the first snap-fit part and the second snap-fit part are snapped together.
[0015] Optionally, a number of second snap-fit parts are provided at intervals along the inner periphery of the fixing part.
[0016] Optionally, a deformation groove is provided on the fixing part between the second snap-fit parts.
[0017] Optionally, the outer wall of the socket body is provided with a receiving groove, the first snap-fit part is connected to the side wall of the receiving groove, and the fixing part is located in the receiving groove.
[0018] In summary, this application includes at least one of the following beneficial technical effects:
[0019] 1. The contact between the abutment and the fixing member at both ends of the crown spring ensures the stability of the crown spring. The detachable connection between the fixing member and the socket body allows the crown spring to be easily disassembled and replaced without damaging other components. This design greatly reduces maintenance costs and shortens the maintenance cycle.
[0020] 2. The first and second snap-fit parts facilitate the installation and removal of the fastener and the socket body, reducing later maintenance costs;
[0021] 3. The pressing part presses against the crown spring, which can make the crown spring more stably fixed in the socket body. The pressing part presses against the wall of the relief groove, so that the fixing part can better limit the position of the crown spring through the relief groove, and better protect the crown spring.

[0026] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figure 1-3 This application will be described in further detail.
[0027] This application discloses a socket structure. (Refer to...) Figure 1 and Figure 2 The socket structure includes a socket body 1, a crown spring 2, and a fixing member 3. The socket body 1 has an installation groove 4 and a contact portion 5. The crown spring 2 extends into the installation groove 4, with one end abutting against the contact portion 5, thus limiting the installation position of the crown spring 2. The fixing member 3 abuts against the side of the crown spring 2 opposite to the contact portion 5, and the fixing member 3 cooperates with the contact portion 5 to stably confine the crown spring 2 within the installation groove 4. The fixing member 3 is detachably connected to the socket body 1. When the crown spring 2 needs to be replaced, simply remove the fixing member 3 from the socket body 1 to remove the crown spring 2 from the socket body 1. This facilitates the installation and removal of the crown spring 2, reducing maintenance costs.
[0028] Reference Figure 2 In some embodiments, the fixing member 3 has a fixing groove 6, and a pressing part 7 and a fixing part 8 are formed on both sides of the fixing groove 6 respectively. The insertion part 9 is connected to the insertion body 1. In this embodiment, the insertion part 9 is integrally formed with the insertion body 1. The insertion part 9 is inserted into the fixing groove 6. The pressing part 7 presses against the crown spring 2, so that the crown spring 2 can be stably fixed. The fixing part 8 is detachably connected to the insertion body 1. The fixing part 8 is located on the outside of the insertion body 1. The connection between the fixing member 3 and the insertion body 1 can better ensure the connection stability between the fixing member 3 and the insertion body 1.
[0029] In some embodiments, the inner diameter of the insertion part 9 is larger than the inner diameter of the insertion hole body 1, and a relief groove 10 is formed between the insertion part 9 and the insertion hole body 1, which communicates with the relief groove 10. The relief groove 10 is formed by the difference in diameter between the insertion part 9 and the insertion hole body 1. The pressing part 7 abuts against the crown spring 2, and the other part abuts against the bottom wall of the relief groove 10. The bottom wall of the relief groove 10 is the upper wall surface of the insertion hole body 1, so that the insertion depth of the fixing member 3 can be limited by the bottom wall of the relief groove 10, so as to better limit and protect the crown spring 2.
[0030] In some embodiments, during installation, the inner wall surface of the fastener 3 and the inner wall surface of the crown spring 2 are on the same plane, making the socket structure easier to use.
[0031] In some embodiments, the outer wall of the plug-in portion 9 is provided with a first snap-fit portion 11, and the fixing portion 8 is provided with a second snap-fit portion 12. The first snap-fit portion 11 and the second snap-fit portion 12 are snapped together, so that the fixing member 3 can be easily assembled and disassembled.
[0032] In some embodiments, a plurality of second snap-fit portions 12 are provided at intervals along the inner periphery of the fixing portion 8. This allows the fixing member 3 to be more stably fixed to the socket body 1.
[0033] Reference Figure 3 In some embodiments, deformation grooves 13 are provided on the fixing portion 8 between the second snap-fit portions 12. In this embodiment, two deformation grooves 13 are provided at intervals between the two second snap-fit members, so that the fixing member 3 can undergo elastic deformation through the deformation grooves 13 during installation, thereby making it easier for the fixing member 3 to snap-fit. In this embodiment, several deformation grooves 13 are also provided at intervals on the top of the fixing member 3.
[0034] Refer again Figure 2 In some embodiments, the outer diameter of the plug-in portion 9 is smaller than the outer diameter of the plug-in body, and a receiving groove 14 is formed between the outer side wall of the plug-in portion 9 and the outer side wall of the plug-in body. The first snap-fit portion 11 is connected to the side wall of the receiving groove 14, and the side wall of the receiving groove 14 is the side wall of the plug-in portion 9. The fixing portion 8 is located in the receiving groove 14, which saves space. In this embodiment, the outer side wall of the fixing portion 8 and the outer side wall of the plug-in body are on the same plane.
[0035] The implementation principle of the socket structure in this application embodiment is as follows: the contact part 5 and the fixing member 3 abut against the two ends of the crown spring 2 can ensure the stability of the crown spring 2. The detachable connection between the fixing member 3 and the socket body 1 allows the crown spring 2 to be easily disassembled and replaced without damaging other components. This design greatly reduces maintenance costs and shortens the maintenance cycle.
[0036] The above are all preferred embodiments of this application, and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this application. Therefore, all equivalent changes made in accordance with the structure, shape and principle of this application should be covered within the scope of protection of this application.
