[0002] In modern electronic devices and electrical systems, electrical connectors are key components for achieving circuit connections and signal transmission. The stability and reliability of their performance are of paramount importance, especially in special environments such as areas with lightning strike risks or places sensitive to electromagnetic interference. Electrical connectors not only need to have good electrical connection performance, but also effective shielding and lightning protection functions.

[0003] Existing electrical connectors typically use sleeve-type insulating sleeves, which are mainly installed by simple direct connection. When maintenance or repair of electrical connectors is required, disassembling the sleeve-type insulating sleeve also faces difficulties. After long-term use, the sleeve and electrical connector may stick together due to the accumulation of dust and dirt or material aging, making the disassembly process extremely difficult. Operators may need to use additional tools, such as pry bars, to forcibly remove the insulating sleeve, which undoubtedly further increases the risk of damaging the electrical connector. Therefore, the above problems need to be improved. Utility Model Content

[0019] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments.

[0020] Example: See Figure 1-5This utility model discloses a shielded lightning protection electrical connector, comprising an electrical connector 1, on which an insulating protective sleeve is fitted. The insulating protective sleeve consists of a symmetrically arranged left protective sleeve 2 and a right protective sleeve 3, which, when joined together, form a cylindrical shape. The ends of the left and right protective sleeves 2 and 3 are flared. During installation, a fixing component is provided at the point where the left and right protective sleeves 2 and 3 abut against each other. The symmetrical design of the insulating protective sleeves (left and right protective sleeves 2 and 3) and their cylindrical shape when joined together on the electrical connector 1 facilitates installation and disassembly. Compared to traditional integral sleeve-type connectors... The insulating sleeves reduce installation difficulty, and the flared design at both ends facilitates the insertion and exit of cables, etc. The fixing components ensure that the left protective sleeve 2 and the right protective sleeve 3 can be firmly attached to the electrical connector 1, improving the stability of the insulating protective sleeve installation and effectively achieving insulation protection for the electrical connector 1, reducing the risk of leakage, short circuit, etc. The inner walls of one end of the left protective sleeve 2 and the right protective sleeve 3 are symmetrically provided with L-shaped adhesive strips 12. Multiple locking seats 4 are horizontally provided on one side of the outer wall of the electrical connector 1. The locking seats 4 have sliding grooves corresponding to the shape of the two L-shaped adhesive strips 12 after they are attached. The L-shaped adhesive strips 12 and the locking seats... The engagement of the connector 4 and its sliding groove allows the L-shaped rubber strip 12 to embed into the sliding groove of the connector 4 during the installation of the insulating protective sleeve, providing precise positioning and ensuring that the left protective sleeve 2 and the right protective sleeve 3 can be accurately installed on the electrical connector 1. This engagement also increases the connection stability between the insulating protective sleeve and the electrical connector 1, preventing displacement or movement of the insulating protective sleeve on the electrical connector 1, further enhancing the insulation protection effect and reliability. The fixing assembly includes several fixing blocks 5 symmetrically arranged on the left and right protective sleeves 2 and 3. The outer wall of the sheath 3 is abutted against each other during installation. The fixing block 5 is provided with a pin 6 for fixing the left protective sleeve 2 and the right protective sleeve 3. The fixing component consisting of the fixing block 5 and the pin 6, through the pin 6 passing through the abutting and fitting fixing block 5, firmly fixes the left protective sleeve 2 and the right protective sleeve 3 together, forming a complete and stable insulating protective sleeve structure. This fixing method is relatively simple to operate and can effectively enhance the overall strength and stability of the insulating protective sleeve, ensuring that the left protective sleeve 2 and the right protective sleeve 3 will not separate during use, and continuously provide reliable insulation protection for the electrical connector 1.

[0021] In this invention, one end of the pin 6 has a cross-shaped opening, and an expansion cover 7 is provided on the outer wall of one end of the pin 6. The expansion cover 7 is frustoconical in shape. The fixing block 5, the expansion cover 7, and the pin 6 are all made of plastic material for lightning protection. The cross-shaped opening at one end of the pin 6 facilitates the application of pressure, allowing the rod at one end of the pin 6 to be squeezed together and smoothly pass through the hole on the fixing block 5. After passing through the hole, the rod returns to its original shape. With the help of the frustoconical expansion cover 7, after being inserted into the fixing block 5, the expansion cover 7 will expand and deform under pressure, further securing it tightly to the fixing block. In section 5, the connection between the pin 6 and the fixing block 5 is made more secure and less prone to loosening. The choice of plastic material gives the fixing block 5, expansion cover 7, and pin 6 a certain degree of insulation performance, without affecting the insulation protection effect of the electrical connector 1. At the same time, it reduces costs and lightens the weight. Multiple mounting posts 8 are provided on the outer wall of the flared opening of the left protective sleeve 2 and the right protective sleeve 3. Waterproof rubber sleeves 9 are covered by the mounting posts 8 on the insulating protective sleeve. The top of the mounting post 8 is provided with a post head. The waterproof rubber sleeve 9 is made of heat shrink tubing. The mounting post 8 and the post head are provided with waterproof rubber sleeves 9. The installation provides reliable support and fixing points, allowing the waterproof sleeve 9 to be stably installed at the flared end of the insulating protective sleeve. The heat-shrink tubing-material waterproof sleeve 9, after heat shrinking, can tightly adhere to the insulating protective sleeve and the electrical connector 1, effectively preventing moisture from penetrating the interior of the electrical connector 1, improving its waterproof performance, and enhancing its reliability in humid or harsh environments. A rotating sleeve 10 is provided on the outer wall of one end of the electrical connector 1. Multiple insertion interfaces are equidistantly distributed along the axial side of one end of the rotating sleeve 10. An inner groove 11 is provided on the inner wall of the rotating sleeve 10, and anti-slip textures are provided on the rotating sleeve 10. The insertion interfaces on the rotating sleeve 10 facilitate connection with other components, enabling multiple functional expansions of the electrical connector 1. The design of the inner groove 11 may provide storage space for cables, making the internal structure of the electrical connector 1 more organized and tidy. The anti-slip textures increase the friction on the surface of the rotating sleeve 10, making it easier for operators to grip and rotate the rotating sleeve 10, improving operational convenience and comfort, and making insertion and removal operations easier and more accurate, thus enhancing the user experience of the electrical connector 1.

[0022] Working principle: When using this utility model, firstly, align the left protective sleeve 2 and right protective sleeve 3 with the two sides of the electrical connector 1 respectively, so that the L-shaped adhesive strips 12 on the inner wall of one end of the left protective sleeve 2 and right protective sleeve 3 are aligned with the snap-fit ​​seat 4 on the outer wall of the electrical connector 1. Since the snap-fit ​​seat 4 has a sliding groove that corresponds to the shape of the two L-shaped adhesive strips 12 after they are attached, slowly push the left protective sleeve 2 and right protective sleeve 3 so that the L-shaped adhesive strips 12 are embedded in the sliding groove, thus achieving the initial positioning and installation of the left protective sleeve 2 and right protective sleeve 3 on the electrical connector 1. At this time, the left protective sleeve 2 and right protective sleeve 3 are joined together to initially form a cylindrical shape. The left protective sleeve 2 and the right protective sleeve 3 are fitted onto the electrical connector 1, with the left protective sleeve 2 and the right protective sleeve 3 corresponding to the two sides of the electrical connector 1 respectively. The L-shaped adhesive strips 12 on the inner wall of one end of the left protective sleeve 2 and the right protective sleeve 3 are aligned with the snap-fit ​​seat 4 on the outer wall of the electrical connector 1. Since the snap-fit ​​seat 4 has a sliding groove that corresponds to the shape of the two L-shaped adhesive strips 12 after they are attached, the left protective sleeve 2 and the right protective sleeve 3 are slowly pushed so that the L-shaped adhesive strips 12 are embedded in the sliding groove, thus achieving the initial positioning and installation of the left protective sleeve 2 and the right protective sleeve 3 on the electrical connector 1. At this time, the left protective sleeve 2 and the right protective sleeve 3 are spliced ​​together to initially form a cylindrical sleeve on the electrical connector 1.

Any equivalent substitutions or changes made by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present utility model, based on the technical solution and the inventive concept of the present utility model, should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
