Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of connector technology and belongs to a smart identification connector structure that prevents mis-insertion. Background Technology

[0002] Connectors generally refer to electrical connectors, that is, devices that connect two active devices to transmit current or signals. The male and female terminals, upon contact, enable the transmission of information or current. Connectors are primarily used for electrical connections and signal transmission between devices, components, and systems, and are essential basic components for forming a complete system. Intelligent identification connectors are electronic components that add intelligent identification functions to traditional connectors. Their principle is to embed intelligent chips, sensors, communication modules, etc., inside the connector or in related systems, enabling the connector to automatically identify the type, specifications, and functions of the connected device or cable, and perform corresponding operations and processing according to preset rules and logic, thereby achieving a more efficient, accurate, and secure connection.

[0003] When connectors are used with plugs, mis-insertion can occur. This mis-insertion can lead to malfunction of the device and, in severe cases, short circuits. Therefore, existing connectors are designed with anti-mis-insertion structures for protection. For example, an anti-mis-insertion electrical connector with prior art publication number CN221862065U has multiple fixing mechanisms. When the outer cylinder is inserted into the annular slot, the limiting block automatically engages in the limiting groove under the action of the return spring, further fixing the connector seat and connector head to improve stability. The positioning mechanism prevents mis-insertion of the connector head, and the guiding mechanism ensures that the insertion parts automatically align when the connector head approaches the connector seat, making mating easier.

[0004] However, the above-mentioned existing technology still has the following problems when used: due to the frequent plugging and unplugging of the connector socket and the plug, it is easy to wear. After long-term use, it will not only affect the connection between the plug and the connector socket, but also affect the accuracy of plug identification. Based on this, the present invention provides an intelligent identification connector structure to prevent mis-plugging. Utility Model Content

[0005] To address this issue, the present invention provides an intelligent identification connector structure that prevents mis-insertion, thereby solving the problem in the prior art where frequent insertion and insertion of the connector socket and plug can easily cause wear, which affects both the connection strength between the plug and the connector socket and the accuracy of plug identification.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:

[0007] A smart identification connector structure for preventing mis-mating includes a connector body. A connection port is provided at the front end of the connector body. An anti-mis-mating component is provided inside the connection port. The anti-mis-mating component includes a wear-resistant sleeve. Multiple circular holes are provided at the rear end of the wear-resistant sleeve. A connected annular groove and multiple limiting grooves are provided on the inner wall of the wear-resistant sleeve.

A contact piece penetrates through the center of the rear end of the wear-resistant sleeve. A microcontroller is connected to the rear end of the contact piece. A mounting groove is provided at the top of the connector body, and the microcontroller is mounted in the mounting groove via a mounting component.

[0008] Furthermore, a square green light and a round red light are fixedly embedded on both sides of the top of the connector body. When the microcontroller detects and recognizes the plug, the square green light is on and the round red light is off. When the microcontroller fails to detect and recognize the plug, the round red light is on and the square green light is off. The user can know the recognition status of the connector body on the plug by observing the status of the square green light and the round red light.

[0009] Furthermore, the front end of the mounting groove has a connecting hole that communicates with the connection socket, and the contact piece passes through the connecting hole to make contact with the identification chip on the plug.

[0010] Furthermore, the mounting assembly includes a mounting plate with a fixing groove at the front end. The microcontroller is detachably fixed in the fixing groove. By removing the bolts between the microcontroller and the fixing groove, the microcontroller and contact plate can be quickly removed for replacement.

[0011] Furthermore, an arc-shaped plate is fixedly provided on the top of the mounting plate, and an arc-shaped groove communicating with the mounting slot is provided on the top of the connector body. The arc-shaped plate is detachably connected to the arc-shaped groove by multiple bolts. By removing the arc-shaped plate, the user can easily take out the microcontroller and contact pieces for inspection and replacement.

[0012] Furthermore, a slide bar is fixedly provided at the bottom of the arc-shaped plate, and a slide groove is provided at the top of the connector body. The slide bar is detachably connected in the slide groove. By using the cooperation between the slide bar and the slide groove, the stability of the arc-shaped plate movement can be improved.

[0013] Furthermore, the top of the arc-shaped plate and the bottom of the connector body are provided with heat dissipation holes that communicate with the mounting groove. A removable dustproof screen is fixed inside each of the two heat dissipation holes. The dustproof screen inside the two heat dissipation holes can block dust and impurities and prevent dust and impurities from affecting the heat dissipation of the microcontroller and the contact plate.

[0014] Furthermore, the wear-resistant sleeve and the connector body are detachably connected together by multiple bolts, making it convenient to remove the wear-resistant sleeve for replacement.

[0015] This utility model has the following advantages:

[0016] 1. This utility model provides wear protection by inserting a wear-resistant sleeve into the connector socket, which can improve the wear resistance and service life of the connector socket. At the same time, the limiting groove on the wear-resistant sleeve can help to accurately insert the plug, avoiding damage to the plug and connector body by misinsertion. When removing the wear-resistant sleeve, dust and impurities on the surface of the contact rod can be cleaned to prevent dust and impurities from affecting the use of the contact rod.

[0017] 2. The wear-resistant sleeve utilizes contact plates and a microcontroller to intelligently identify the plug. The structure is simple, and it is more intelligent and safer to use.

[0018] 3. The microcontroller and contact plate are fixed by the arc plate and mounting plate, which facilitates the disassembly of the microcontroller and contact plate for maintenance. At the same time, the two heat dissipation holes can allow air circulation in the mounting slot, thereby facilitating the heat dissipation of the microcontroller and contact plate.

[0030] The following specific embodiments illustrate the implementation of this utility model. Those skilled in the art can easily understand other advantages and effects of this utility model from the content disclosed in this specification. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some, not all, of the embodiments of this utility model. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of this utility model.

[0031] Refer to the instruction manual appendix Figure 1-6 This utility model provides a smart identification connector structure to prevent mis-insertion, including a connector body 1, a connection socket 2 at the front end of the connector body 1, an anti-mis-insertion component 3 inside the connection socket 2, the anti-mis-insertion component 3 including a wear-resistant sleeve 301, a plurality of circular holes 302 at the rear end of the wear-resistant sleeve 301, a connected annular groove 303 and a plurality of limiting grooves 304 on the inner wall of the wear-resistant sleeve 301, the plurality of limiting grooves 304 being arranged in an annular array on the inner wall of the wear-resistant sleeve 301, a contact piece 4 penetrating through the center of the rear end of the wear-resistant sleeve 301, a microcontroller 5 connected to the rear end of the contact piece 4, and a mounting groove 6 at the top of the connector body 1, the microcontroller 5 being mounted in the mounting groove 6 through a mounting component 7.

[0032] The connector body 1 has a square green light 8 and a round red light 9 fixedly embedded on its top two sides. When the microcontroller 5 detects and recognizes the device, the square green light 8 lights up and the round red light 9 turns off. When the microcontroller 5 fails to detect and recognize the device, the round red light 9 lights up and the square green light 8 turns off, making it convenient for users to observe the recognition status.

[0033] The mounting slot 6 has a connecting hole 10 at the front end that communicates with the connection socket 2. The contact piece 4 passes through the connecting hole 10 to make contact with the identification chip on the plug.

[0034] The wear-resistant sleeve 301 is detachably connected to the connector body 1 by multiple bolts. The wear-resistant sleeve 301 can be removed from the connector socket 2 by inserting a finger into the annular groove 303. When removing the wear-resistant sleeve 301, the wear-resistant sleeve 301 can scrape the surface of the contact rod in the connector socket 2 to prevent dust and impurities from affecting the use of the contact rod.

[0035] During use, the wear-resistant sleeve 301 is inserted into the connector 2 to provide wear protection. At the same time, the multiple limiting grooves 304 on the wear-resistant sleeve 301 can limit the plug, thereby helping the user to accurately insert the plug and avoid damage from misinsertion. When the plug is inserted in place, the identification chip on the plug contacts the contact piece 4 to exchange data. The identification circuit in the microcontroller 5 reads the information in the plug identification chip. The microcontroller 5 judges the plug according to the preset database and algorithm. Specifically, when the microcontroller 5 detects that the identification is successful, the square green light 8 is on and the round red light 9 is off. When the microcontroller 5 detects that the identification is unsuccessful, the round red light 9 is on and the square green light 8 is off. The user can know whether the plug is compatible by the square green light 8 and the round red light 9. The structure is simple and the use is more intelligent.

[0036] Refer to the instruction manual appendix Figure 1-6 The mounting component 7 includes a mounting plate 701. The front end of the mounting plate 701 has a fixing groove 702. The microcontroller 5 is detachably fixed in the fixing groove 702. An arc plate 703 is fixedly provided on the top of the mounting plate 701. The top of the connector body 1 has an arc groove 704 that communicates with the mounting groove 6. The arc plate 703 is detachably connected in the arc groove 704 by multiple bolts.

[0037] When it is necessary to disassemble the microcontroller 5 and the contact piece 4, first move the arc plate 703 backward so that the contact piece 4 moves from the wear-resistant sleeve 301 into the mounting groove 6. Then, the arc plate 703 can be removed from the arc groove 704, and the mounting plate 701, the microcontroller 5 and the contact piece 4 can be moved out of the mounting groove 6 together, which facilitates the disassembly and maintenance of the microcontroller 5 and the contact piece 4.

[0038] An arc-shaped plate 703 is fixedly provided on the top of the mounting plate 701, and a slide bar 11 is fixedly provided on the bottom of the arc-shaped plate 703. A slide groove 12 is provided on the top of the connector body 1. The slide bar 11 is detachably connected in the slide groove 12. By using the slide bar 11 and the slide groove 12 in cooperation, the stability of the movement of the arc-shaped plate 703 can be improved.

[0039] The top of the arc plate 703 and the bottom of the connector body 1 are both provided with heat dissipation holes 13 that communicate with the mounting groove 6. A removable dustproof mesh 14 is fixed inside the two heat dissipation holes 13. The air in the mounting groove 6 is allowed to circulate through the two heat dissipation holes 13, which facilitates the heat dissipation of the microcontroller 5 and the contact piece 4.
