[0029] To address the problem that traditional communication connectors, often designed for single use, suffer from aging of sealing elements after prolonged use, leading to poor sealing performance and difficulty in reuse, this invention provides a reusable sealed communication connector. The technical solutions of this invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of this invention, not all of them. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of this invention without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this invention.

[0030] Please see Figure 1-7 This utility model provides a reusable sealed communication connector, including a communication connector body 1. A sealing gasket 2 is provided at the connecting end of the communication connector body 1. A fastening assembly 3 is provided at the connecting end of the communication connector body 1. The fastening assembly 3 includes an internal groove 301 formed at the connecting end of the communication connector body 1. Fastening support plates 302 are provided on both sides of the internal groove 301, and the fastening support plates 302 are in the shape of an inverted "L". An inner liner cover plate 303 is slidably connected inside the internal groove 301. Channels 304 are provided on both sides of the inner liner cover plate 303 to cooperate with the fastening support plates 302, allowing the inner liner cover plate 303 to move outside the fastening support plates 302 through the channels 304. Multiple sets of return springs 305 are provided inside the internal groove 301, and the return springs 305 are located below the inner liner cover plate 303, allowing the inner liner cover plate 303 to move elastically within the internal groove 301 via the return springs 305. The lower surface of the fastening support plate 302 is provided with two sets of positioning protrusions 306. The inner groove 301 is provided with guide grooves 307 on both sides for the movement of the inner lining cover plate 303.

[0031] A mating component 4 is provided on the side where the sealing gasket 2 connects to the communication connector body 1; the mating component 4 includes a pad 401 located below the sealing gasket 2, and positioning support plates 402 are provided on both sides of the bottom surface of the pad 401, which cooperate with the fastening support plate 302. Two sets of positioning grooves 403 are provided on the surface of the positioning support plate 402 to cooperate with the positioning protrusion 306.

[0032] The sealing gasket 2 is connected to the fastening assembly 3 at the communication connector body 1 via the mating part 4.

[0033] The working principle of the reusable sealed communication connector provided by this utility model is as follows: When replacing the sealing gasket 2, the sealing gasket 2 is placed against the inner cover plate 303 of the communication connector body 1 by the connecting pad 401. The sealing gasket 2 is pressed down, causing it to compress the return spring 305 located in the built-in groove 301 through the inner cover plate 303. The return spring 305 is compressed by the force, and the inner cover plate 303 moves towards the bottom of the built-in groove 301 through the guide groove 307 until the positioning support plate 402 is located below the fastening support plate 302.

[0034] Rotate the sealing gasket 2, which drives the positioning support plate 402 to rotate via the pad 401. The positioning support plate 402 rotates to be directly below the fastening support plate 302, so that the positioning protrusion 306 of the fastening support plate 302 is engaged with the positioning groove 403 of the positioning support plate 402. Then release the pressing action on the sealing gasket 2, and the return spring 305 firmly engages the fastening support plate 302 and the positioning support plate 402 through the elastic force, thus completing the connection between the sealing gasket 2 and the communication connector body 1.

[0035] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
