Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The utility model relates to the field of plug connector, specifically point to a kind of plug connector of high temperature resistance. BACKGROUND

[0002] The electric connector is a switching structure for transmitting electrical signals from the sensing end to the processing end. The electric connector is connected with the sensing end component and the processing end component by welding, crimping or riveting. The contact resistance of the connection surface directly affects the signal transmission effect. Generally, to reduce the electrical loss of the contact interface, the existing technology performs electroplating treatment on the contact part of the electric connector. According to the corresponding scene, nickel, gold and silver are electroplated on the surface of the contact part in sequence.

[0003] However, the electric connector formed by the above-mentioned existing technology has the following problems in high-temperature application fields. The nickel plating layer itself will oxidize in an environment with a temperature higher than 300°C. Meanwhile, the mutual diffusion of gold and nickel will eventually lead to the failure of the gold layer. Silver itself will migrate and the plating layer will peel off in a high-temperature environment. Ultimately, the above electroplating types will cause the failure of the electroplated surface of the electric connector due to oxidation and diffusion. This further affects the connection effect with the sensing end or the processing end, and more seriously, it will directly lead to connection failure and signal interruption. In order to solve the technical problem of high-temperature deformation, the existing application with publication number CN206332229 and the name of a high-temperature-resistant temperature sensor connector structure only improves the structural features of the high-temperature-resistant connector. The existing technology with publication number CN204391338 and the name of a high-temperature-resistant connector structure realizes higher temperature resistance by replacing materials. The existing technology with publication number CN117650380 and the name of a gas-tight connector with electroplatable high-temperature-resistant plating layer realizes resistance through a high-temperature-resistant layer. In summary, the existing technology does not solve the risk of oxidation and diffusion of electroplated materials in a high-temperature environment, or it does not disclose how to realize high-temperature resistance.
