A lock 8 is rotatably provided on the outer side of the lower housing 2, and the lock 8 has two locking grooves 9. The upper housing 1 is covered by the sealing element above the lower housing 2. The lock 8 is engaged with the corresponding locking rod 5, and the locking rod 5 is located in the corresponding locking groove 9. The plug 4 is inserted into the socket 7.

[0021] In this embodiment, the design utilizes a double-layer sealing material structure to prevent dust and water damage, ensuring stable data transmission throughout the oxygen generator's operation. Furthermore, the addition of locks 8 and 5 enhances the stability and durability of the oxygen generator's data transmission connection. The modular structure facilitates inspection and maintenance, saving time and effort. Finally, the use of enhanced connectors ensures more stable signal transmission, faster operation, and stronger load-bearing capacity, making the entire oxygen generator system more efficient in data acquisition, monitoring, and transmission. This improves the long-term stable operation of the equipment. This approach effectively solves the problems of unstable connections, poor sealing, and susceptibility to damage encountered with traditional aviation connectors in operating environments, which undoubtedly introduce instability into the oxygen generator's operation. It should be noted that the upper housing 1 and lower housing 2 of this design are made of high-grade and corrosion-resistant materials.

[0022] Furthermore, the sealing element includes an upper sealing gasket 10 and a lower sealing gasket 11. The upper sealing gasket 10 is bonded to the upper housing 1 and located below the upper housing 1. The lower sealing gasket 11 is bonded to the lower housing 2 and located above the lower housing 2. The upper sealing gasket 10 and the lower sealing gasket 11 abut against each other.

[0023] In this embodiment, by enhancing sealing performance, strengthening connection reliability, and incorporating modular integrated design, the smooth operation of the product in the pressure swing adsorption oxygen generation system is improved. The development and widespread use of this product will also bring technological changes to the pressure swing adsorption industry and promote further improvement in the industry's technical level. It should be noted that the sealing element in this design is made of high-quality waterproof rubber material to ensure sealing and waterproofing effects.

[0024] Furthermore, the plug 4 is provided with a plurality of male pins 12, and the socket 7 is provided with a plurality of female pins 13, with the top of the female pin 13 inserted into one end of the male pin 12 and the other end of the male pin 12 embedded in the bottom of the female pin 13.

[0025] In this embodiment, the plug 4 and the socket 7 are electrically connected through the male pin 12 and the female pin 13. First, the signal line is connected to the plug 4, the plug 4 enters the male pin 12, and the male pin 12 is inserted into the female pin 13. When connecting the device end, the external wire is connected first, and then the male pin 12 and the female pin 13 are inserted into the corresponding positions of the plug 4 and the socket 7.

[0026] Furthermore, the inner side of the plug 4 has a plurality of insertion slots 14, and the outer side of the socket 7 is provided with a plurality of insertion blocks 15, and the insertion blocks 15 are located within the insertion slots 14.

[0027] In this embodiment, the insertion slot 14 and the insertion block 15 are used to enable the plug 4 and the socket 7 to connect and disconnect. During the insertion and removal process, the structure of the insertion slot 14 and the insertion block 15 can guide the direction of the plug 4 and the socket 7 to prevent them from being inserted at an angle.

[0030] Furthermore, the enhanced pressure swing adsorption oxygen generator aviation connector also includes a threaded cap 18 and a threaded sleeve 19. The threaded cap 18 is threadedly connected to the threaded sleeve 19 and is located inside the threaded sleeve 19. The threaded sleeve 19 is fixedly connected to the upper housing 1 and is located above the upper housing 1.

[0031] In this embodiment, the threaded cap 18 can effectively seal the threaded sleeve 19, and the threaded sleeve 19 can facilitate direct electrical connection without disassembling the upper housing 1.

[0032] In this invention, when the oxygen generator terminal integrated circuit needs to be connected, the technician aligns the plug 4 with the socket 7 and pushes it. The plug-in slot 14 and the plug-in block 15 respond quickly, allowing the plug 4 to initially connect with the socket 7. Then, the lock 8 and the locking rod 5 automatically lock together, ensuring a secure and stable connection. During this process, the multi-layer composite sealing structure fits tightly, forming an effective seal. At this point, the connection point is firmly secured, and data transmission begins, with real-time monitoring of the connection status and various parameters. If an abnormality is detected, the enhanced connector of the oxygen generator will send a feedback signal to the host computer terminal for more efficient troubleshooting and reduced maintenance costs and time.

[0033] In this invention, key components of the connector are improved and structural parts are reinforced to ensure stable line transmission. The double-layer sealing material enhances the sealing effect, making it suitable for use in the harsh environment of pressure swing adsorption oxygen generation. The use of high-strength materials strengthens the locking and fastening mechanism to prevent loosening. The modular design allows the host computer terminal to diagnose each module in real time. Once an abnormality is detected, each module of the connector will provide feedback signals, which is beneficial for rapid diagnosis and troubleshooting. This ensures that the connector's service life is protected from vibration, environmental pollution, temperature differences, etc., during the data transmission process of pressure swing adsorption oxygen generation. It also solves the problems of unstable equipment operation caused by poor contact and transmission of the pressure swing adsorption oxygen generation instrument wiring harness.
