Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of connectors, and more particularly to a connector with a positioning function. Background Technology
[0002] With societal development, electronic devices are becoming increasingly diverse and functionally sophisticated, making their internal circuit connections more complex. Among the various circuit connection methods, connectors are widely used due to their convenience, speed, and detachability. Connectors enable electrical connections and signal transmission between different electronic components, playing a crucial role in ensuring the normal operation of electronic devices.
[0003] However, existing connectors have a significant drawback during installation: they cannot achieve proper positioning and fixation. This can lead to a series of serious problems. First, during installation, the lack of positioning functionality makes it difficult for the plug to be accurately inserted into the corresponding position in the socket. This can cause misalignment between the pins and the socket, resulting in poor contact. Poor contact can lead to unstable electrical connections, signal transmission interruptions or errors, severely affecting the performance of electronic equipment and potentially causing equipment malfunction. Second, connectors that cannot be fixed are prone to loosening and falling off under slight vibration, impact, or external pulling. This can not only cause the equipment to lose normal function instantly but may also lead to wear and deformation of the pins and socket due to repeated insertion and removal, reducing the connector's lifespan and increasing maintenance costs and repair difficulty.

[0006] By adopting the above technical solution, the plug and socket can be quickly fixed during the connection process, which effectively prevents the plug from loosening due to external force during use and improves the stability and reliability of the connector connection.
[0007] As a further description of the above technical solution: the fixing component also includes a limiting block, a limiting groove, a stop block, and anti-slip texture. Two limiting blocks are fixedly connected to both sides of the outer wall of the moving rod. Two sets of limiting grooves are distributed vertically on the inner wall of the movable groove. The limiting blocks are located inside the limiting grooves. The stop blocks are fixedly connected to the front and rear ends of the moving rod. The stop blocks fit against the inner and outer walls of the positioning block. The anti-slip texture is formed on the outer wall of the stop block.
[0008] By adopting the above technical solution, the moving rod is prevented from moving excessively and detaching from the movable slot, thus ensuring the integrity and reliability of the fixed component structure.
[0009] As a further description of the above technical solution: the plug is internally fixedly connected with a pin, and the pins are arranged in a linear pattern. The top of the socket has a socket hole, and the pins are installed inside the socket hole.
[0010] By adopting the above technical solution, the precise matching of the pin and the socket ensures the accuracy and efficiency of the electrical connection, and reduces signal transmission loss and interference.
[0011] As a further description of the above technical solution: two first fixing spring plates are fixedly connected to the outer wall of the positioning block, and two second fixing spring plates are fixedly connected to the inside of the positioning block.

[0013] As a further description of the above technical solution: two positioning rods are fixedly connected to the top of the positioning block, and the positioning rods are located inside the socket.
[0014] By adopting the above technical solution, a preliminary positioning guide is provided for the insertion of the plug, enabling the plug to be inserted into the socket more quickly and accurately.
[0015] As a further description of the above technical solution: the top of the socket has two first mounting slots and two second mounting slots, the positioning rod is located inside the first mounting slots, and the two movable blocks are located inside the second mounting slots.

[0017] By employing the above technical solution, the plug-in component with positioning function of this utility model has at least the following beneficial effects:
[0018] 1. Compared with existing technologies, this plug-in connector with positioning function is equipped with a moving rod, movable blocks, a traction spring, a conical block, a limiting block, and a limiting groove. In use, the traction spring pulls the two movable blocks closer together. Then, as the plug is inserted, the two movable blocks enter the second mounting groove. Pulling the moving rod upwards simultaneously moves the conical block upwards. Through contact between the conical block and the two movable blocks, the two movable blocks are pushed outwards, fixing the positioning block to the top of the socket to prevent the plug from detaching. The limiting block and limiting groove also fix the position of the moving rod. Simultaneously, the pins inside the plug insert into the socket's socket to achieve electrical connection and signal transmission. This invention enables rapid installation, greatly improving installation efficiency, reducing installation time, and effectively avoiding connection problems caused by improper installation, thereby improving the production efficiency and reliability of electronic equipment.
[0019] 2. Compared with existing technologies, this positioning connector utilizes a first and second fixing spring plate to provide elastic support and reset for the positioning block. When the connector is subjected to external forces such as vibration or impact, it maintains good contact between the pin and the socket, ensuring the stability of electrical connection and signal transmission. Simultaneously, it securely connects the plug and socket with the fixing component, preventing loosening and detachment, extending the connector's service life, and reducing equipment maintenance costs and repair frequency.

[0031] Reference Figures 1-6 This utility model provides a plug-in component with a positioning function, comprising a plug 1 as a front-end component for connecting to external equipment or wiring. A socket 2 is fixedly mounted on the bottom of the plug 1. A positioning block 5 is movably mounted inside the plug 1. A fixing component 9 is mounted on the bottom of the positioning block 5, which is the key part for achieving a stable connection between the plug 1 and the socket 2. The fixing component 9 includes a movable groove 901, a moving rod 902, a connecting rod 903, a movable block 904, a traction spring 905, and a conical block 906. Two movable grooves 901 are formed on both sides of the positioning block 5, providing a good installation position and movement conditions for the sliding of the moving rod 902. The moving rod 902 is slidably mounted inside the movable groove 901. There are four connecting rods 903, with two connecting rods 903 fixedly connected to the bottom of each side of the positioning block 5. Two connecting rods 903 on the same side are... Located on both sides of the bottom of the movable slot 901, the movable blocks 904 are movably installed at the bottom of the connecting rod 903. The shape and structure of the movable blocks 904 can be well matched with the corresponding positions inside the socket 2 to achieve the function of locking and fixing. The traction spring 905 is fixedly connected to the opposite surfaces of the two movable blocks 904 to provide appropriate elastic force. When the plug 1 is inserted into and removed from the socket 2, the movable blocks 904 can be accurately inserted into the socket 2. The conical block 906 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the moving rod 902. The outer wall of the conical block 906 fits against the opposite inner walls of the two movable blocks 904. The tapered design of the conical block 906 is reasonable, which can effectively convert the up and down movement of the moving rod 902 into the left and right movement of the movable blocks 904. It interacts with the internal structure of the socket 2 to fix the plug 1. The two movable blocks 904 are located inside the socket 2.
[0032] The fixing component 9 also includes a limiting block 907, a limiting groove 908, a stop block 909, and an anti-slip texture 910. Two limiting blocks 907 are fixedly connected to both sides of the outer wall of the moving rod 902. Two sets of limiting grooves 908 are distributed vertically on the inner wall of the movable groove 901. The limiting blocks 907 are located inside the limiting grooves 908. Through the cooperation of the limiting blocks 907 and the limiting grooves 908, the sliding range of the moving rod 902 is strictly limited, ensuring the stability and safety of the moving rod 902 during movement. The stop block 909 is fixedly connected to the front and rear ends of the moving rod 902. The stop block 909 fits against the inner and outer walls of the positioning block 5, preventing the moving rod 902 from coming out of the movable groove 901. The anti-slip texture 910 is formed on the outer wall of the stop block 909, which increases the friction between the operator's hand and the stop block 909, making it easier to manually operate the moving rod 902.
[0033] The plug 1 has a fixed internal connection of pins 3, which are arranged in a linear pattern to ensure a reliable electrical connection after being inserted into the socket 4. The socket 2 has a socket 4 on its top, and the pins 3 are installed inside the socket 4. After the plug 1 and the socket 2 are connected, the tight fit between the pins 3 and the socket 4 enables the transmission of electrical signals.
[0034] Two first fixing spring plates 6 are fixedly connected to the outer wall of the positioning block 5, and two second fixing spring plates 7 are fixedly connected to the inside of the positioning block 5. The first fixing spring plates 6 and the second fixing spring plates 7 are both fixedly installed inside the plug 1. The first fixing spring plates 6 and the second fixing spring plates 7 apply elastic force to the positioning block 5 from different directions, providing buffering, auxiliary positioning and reset functions for the positioning block 5 during the process of the plug 1 being inserted into the socket 2.
[0035] Two positioning rods 8 are fixedly connected to the top of the positioning block 5. The positioning rods 8 are located inside the socket 2. When the plug 1 is inserted into the socket 2, the positioning rods 8 first enter the first mounting groove 201, providing preliminary positioning guidance for the insertion of the plug 1, so that the plug 1 can be inserted into the socket 2 more quickly and accurately.
[0036] The top of the socket 2 has two first mounting slots 201 and two second mounting slots 202. The positioning rod 8 is located inside the first mounting slot 201, and the two movable blocks 904 are located inside the second mounting slots 202. The opening position and accuracy of the first mounting slots 201 and the second mounting slots 202 play a key role in the positioning and fixing effect of the entire connector.
[0037] Working principle: During installation, first align the plug 1 with the socket 2, and insert the positioning rod 8 on the positioning block 5 into the first mounting slot 201 of the socket 2 for initial positioning and guidance.
[0038] The pulling force of the traction spring 905 brings the two movable blocks 904 closer together. Then, as the plug 1 continues to be inserted, the two movable blocks 904 enter the second mounting slot 202. Next, the moving rod 902 is pulled upwards, simultaneously causing the conical block 906 to move upwards. Through the contact between the conical block 906 and the two movable blocks 904, the two movable blocks 904 are pushed outwards, thus fixing the positioning block 5 to the top of the socket 2 to prevent the plug 1 from detaching. Simultaneously, the position of the moving rod 902 is fixed by the limiting block 907 and the limiting groove 908. At the same time, the pin 3 inside the plug 1 is inserted into the socket hole 4 of the socket 2 to achieve electrical connection and signal transmission.
[0039] Finally, it should be noted that the above are merely preferred embodiments of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model. Although the present utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features.
