Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of connector technology, specifically to a communication connector with good stability. Background Technology

[0002] A communication connector is a type of connector. It generally refers to an electrical connector, that is, a device that connects two active devices to transmit current or signals. An RJ connector is one type of communication connector.

[0003] The main physical reasons affecting the stability of communication connectors are: 1. Loose mating leads to poor contact between terminals, thus affecting the stability of the connector; 2. Prolonged operation of the connector causes the temperature to rise, affecting the conductivity between terminals and thus affecting the stability of the connector. Utility Model Content

[0018] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0019] In the description of this utility model, it should be understood that the terms "center," "longitudinal," "lateral," "upper," "lower," "front," "rear," "left," "right," "horizontal," "vertical," "top," "inner," and "outer," etc., indicating the orientation or positional relationship, are based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings and are only for the convenience of describing this utility model and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore should not be construed as a limitation of this utility model. Furthermore, the terms "first" and "second" are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance.

[0020] Please see Figures 1 to 3This utility model provides an embodiment of a communication connector with good stability, including a housing 10, which is a connector socket installed on a device. The housing 10 has a receiving groove 1 for inserting an RJ plug. Guide grooves 2 are provided on both sides of the housing 10. A locking assembly 3 is provided in the guide groove 2. The locking assembly 3 includes an abutment 4, a guide 5, and a tension spring 6. The abutment 4 is located at the front end of the guide groove 2, and the abutment 4 extends beyond the edge of the opening of the receiving groove 1 near the inner end. The abutment 4 and the guide 5 are rotatably connected. A further arrangement is provided between the abutment 4 and the guide 5. With a torsion spring (not shown), the guide 5 can slide freely in the guide groove 2. The end of the guide 5 away from the abutment 4 is connected to the tension spring 6. The end of the tension spring 6 away from the guide 5 is connected to the inner end of the guide groove 2. The inner end of the guide groove 2 is nailed with a pin (not shown). One end of the tension spring 6 is fixedly connected to the pin. The torsion spring drives the abutment 4 to generate a torque from the outer end of the receiving groove 1 to the inner end of the receiving groove 1. After the RJ plug is inserted into the receiving groove 1, the RJ plug is always pushed inward by the abutment 4, which prevents the RJ plug from loosening with the connector and improves the stability of the connector.

[0021] Furthermore, the tension spring is in an unstretched state, meaning that it will not exert tension on the guide member 5 and the contact member 4 under normal circumstances.

[0022] Several heat dissipation slots 7 are provided on both sides of the receiving slot 1, and the heat dissipation slots 7 are evenly arranged. The arrangement of the heat dissipation slots 7 allows the housing 10 and the RJ plug to have more contact area with the air, so as to exchange heat through the air and achieve the heat dissipation effect, prevent the connector from being affected by overheating, and further improve the stability of the connector. At the same time, the slots are provided on both sides to prevent dust from entering the bottom and prevent dust from sticking to the connecting terminals 8, which would affect the conductivity.

[0023] In this embodiment, the guide member 5 is adapted to the shape of the guide groove 2. The guide groove 2 is a T-shaped groove with the small end of the guide groove 2 facing outward and the guide groove 2 penetrates the outer end face of the housing 10. The cross-section of the guide member 5 is "T" shaped. The above is only an example of one embodiment. Other embodiments do not limit the shape of the guide member 5 and the guide groove 2.

[0024] A cover plate (not shown) is provided at one end of the guide groove 2 near the outer side. The cover plate covers the portion of the guide groove 2 that penetrates the outer end face of the housing 10 and conceals the locking assembly 3, thereby improving the aesthetic appearance of the connector.

[0025] The bottom of the receiving slot 1 is provided with multiple connection terminals 8. One end of the multiple connection terminals 8 passes through the bottom of the housing 10 and is used to connect other electronic components of the device.

[0026] In this embodiment, LEDs 9 are provided at the top two corners of the receiving groove 1.

[0027] An inclined angle 11 is set at the outer end opening of the receiving groove 1, forming an opening that is larger at the outer end and smaller at the inner end, making it easier to insert the RJ plug. When the RJ plug is inserted into the receiving groove 1, the RJ plug pushes the contact member 4 inward, while driving the guide member 5 to pull forward, giving the contact member 4 more room to rotate. The contact member 4 can fit into the inclined angle 11 part, forming a clearance space, which does not affect the normal insertion of the RJ plug and facilitates the user's operation. After the RJ plug is inserted, the tension of the tension spring 6 drives the guide member 5 and the contact member 4 to return to their original positions. The torsion spring drives the contact member 4 to always maintain a torque from the outer end of the receiving groove 1 to the inner end of the receiving groove 1.

[0028] It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that this invention is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above, and that it can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential characteristics of this invention. Therefore, the embodiments should be considered illustrative and non-limiting in all respects, and the scope of this invention is defined by the appended claims rather than the foregoing description. Thus, it is intended that all variations falling within the meaning and scope of equivalents of the claims be included within this invention. No reference numerals in the claims should be construed as limiting the scope of the claims.
