[0031] In order to make the purpose, technical scheme and advantages of the present application more clear, the present application is further described in detail below with reference to the drawings and embodiments.

[0032] Please refer to Figure 1 The connector assembly includes a male connector 90 and the connector protection device 100.

[0033] The male connector 90 can be plugged with a female connector to realize the electrical connection of the wires connected by the male connector 90 and the wires connected by the female connector. The male connector 90 can be a plug, and the female connector is a socket at this time. The male connector 90 can also be a socket, and the female connector is a plug at this time. The male connector 90 has a head end and a tail end 901. The head end is used for plugging with the female connector, and the tail end 901 is the connection end of the wire. The wire connected with the male connector 90 extends from the tail end 901 of the male connector 90. The direction from the tail end 901 to the head end of the male connector 90 is the plugging direction of the male connector 90. The male connector 90 can be plugged into the female connector along the plugging direction until the male connector 90 is plugged with the female connector. The wire of the tail end 901 of the male connector 90 extends out of the male connector 90 in the opposite direction of the plugging direction. The connector protection device 100 can be detachably connected to the male connector 90. When it is needed to plug the male connector 90 with the female connector, the connector protection device 100 can be installed on the male connector 90 first, and then the connector protection device 100 is held to plug the male connector 90 with the female connector. The connector protection device 100 can protect the wire extending from the tail end 901 of the male connector 90 and provide a holding position for the hand.

[0034] Please refer to Figure 1 The connector protection device 100 provided by the embodiments of the present application includes a connecting member 10 and a holding member 20.

[0035] The connecting member 10 can be detachably connected to the male connector 90. The detachable connection mode includes but is not limited to clamping, plugging, clamping, threaded connection, etc. The connecting member 10 can be detachably connected to the inherent structure of the male connector 90 to save cost and assembly difficulty. Of course, the connecting member 10 can also be detachably connected with the accessory provided on the male connector 90. The accessory can be an auxiliary structural member independent of the male connector 90, which is not limited here.

[0036] The connecting member 10 is formed with a connecting channel 101 on the side of the tail end 901 of the male connector 90, and the connecting channel 101 extends in the reverse direction of the insertion direction of the male connector 90. The extension path of the connecting member 10 can be a straight path, in which case the straight path extends in the reverse direction of the insertion direction of the male connector 90. The extension path of the connecting member 10 can also be a curved or zigzag path, as long as it extends generally or entirely in the reverse direction of the insertion direction of the male connector 90. The connecting channel 101 has two channel openings, one facing the tail end 901 of the male connector 90 and the other away from the tail end 901 of the male connector 90. The connecting channel 101 is used for the wire to pass through, i.e. the wire extends in the connecting channel 101 and exits the connecting channel 101 from the channel opening away from the tail end 901 of the male connector 90. The extension direction of the wire at the connection with the tail end 901 of the male connector 90 is the same as or forms an angle with the extension direction of the connecting channel 101.

[0037] It should be noted that the connecting member 10 can be connected to the tail end 901 of the male connector 90 or other regions of the male connector 90 except the tail end 901, as long as the connecting channel 101 can be formed on the side of the tail end 901.

[0038] The handheld member 20 is connected to the side of the connecting member 10 away from the male connector 90 and extends along a bent path bent relative to the insertion direction of the male connector 90. The bent path can be a straight path, in which case the extension direction of the handheld member 20 forms an angle with the extension direction of the connecting channel 101. Of course, the bent path can also be a curved or zigzag path, which is not limited here, as long as the extension direction of the handheld member 20 at the connection with the connecting member 10 is different from the extension direction of the connecting channel 101. The handheld member 20 avoids the channel opening of the connecting channel 101 away from the male connector 90 to avoid affecting the wire extending out of the connecting channel 101.

[0039] Please refer to Figure 2 In which, the part of the wire 80 close to the tail end 901 of the male connector 90 can be named as the initial segment 81, which is located in the connecting channel 101. The part extending out of the connecting channel 101 can be named as the extension segment 82, and the setting of the handheld member 20 does not affect the extension of the extension segment 82. The extension segment 82 can extend along the extension direction of the handheld member 20 or other directions, which is not limited here.

[0040] The connector protection device 100 is provided with the connecting channel 101 formed by the connecting member 10, which protects the initial segment 81 of the wire 80 from being bumped and prevents the initial segment 81 of the wire 80 from being excessively bent. The handheld member 20 can be used for holding by hand. When the male connector 90 needs to be inserted into the female connector, the operator can hold the connector protection device 100 to indirectly hold the male connector 90 and apply force to the handheld member 20 by hand to realize the plug-in connection of the male connector 90 and the female connector, which increases the area of the position that can be operated by hand and avoids the hand from pressing the wire 80, thereby reducing the possibility of damage to the wire 80.

[0041] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 In some embodiments, the handheld member 20 is formed with a guide channel 201 that is in communication with the connecting channel 101, and the guide channel 201 is used to guide the wire 80 that passes through the connecting channel 101 to extend along a bending path. The guide channel 201 can ensure that the extension segment 82 of the wire 80 extends along a specific bending path, avoids the extension segment 82 from swinging randomly to cause poor contact between the wire 80 and the male connector 90, and further avoids the hand from applying force to the extension segment 82 of the wire 80. The channel opening of the guide channel 201 close to the connecting channel 101 can be connected to the channel opening of the connecting channel 101 away from the male connector 90, and the initial segment 81 of the wire 80 can be gently bent and transitioned in the connecting channel 101 to enable the extension segment 82 to extend along the guide channel 201.

[0042] It should be noted that the extension segment 82 of the wire 80 can be guided by the channel wall of the guide channel 201, or can be guided by other accessories, such as a belt, to guide the extension segment 82 to extend along the extension direction of the guide channel 201. The wire 80 can be completely accommodated in the guide channel 201, or can be partially accommodated in the guide channel 201.

[0043] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2In some embodiments, the connecting member 10 comprises a shield 11 detachably connected to the male connector 90, the shield 11 comprising a first side plate 111, a second side plate 112 and a connecting plate 113, the first side plate 111 and the second side plate 112 oppositely arranged, the first side plate 111 and the second side plate 112 respectively located at opposite sides of the male connector 90, and the connecting plate 113 connected to the first side plate 111 and the second side plate 112 and jointly enclosing the connecting channel 101 with the first side plate 111 and the second side plate 112. In this way, the connecting channel 101 can be a non-circumferentially closed channel, i.e. the connecting channel 101 is formed with an opening at the opposite side of the connecting plate 113 to avoid the wire 80 when the connector shield 100 is assembled with the male connector 90, and meanwhile improve the heat dissipation effect of the connecting channel 101.

[0044] Optionally, the connecting plate 113 is integrally connected with the first side plate 111 and the second side plate 112 to facilitate processing and improve structural strength. The connecting member 10 can be made of insulating material to avoid leakage of the wire 80 or the male connector 90.

[0045] The end surface of the tail end 901 of the male connector 90 is generally square-shaped, and thus the first side plate 111 and the second side plate 112 can be arranged in parallel, the connecting plate 113 can be perpendicular to the first side plate 111 and the second side plate 112, and the connecting plate 113 can be connected to the same side of the first side plate 111 and the second side plate 112. The cross section of the shield 11 can be U-shaped, and the first side plate 111, the second side plate 112 and the connecting plate 113 correspond to the three right-angled edges of the end surface of the tail end 901 of the male connector 90 respectively. In other embodiments, the cross section of the shield 11 can also be H-shaped, i.e. the connecting plate 113 is arranged at the middle part of the first side plate 111 and the second side plate 112, which is not limited here as long as the first side plate 111 and the second side plate 112 can be limited and the connecting channel 101 can be formed.

[0046] In other embodiments, the shield 11 can also be tubular, i.e. the shield 11 comprises the first side plate 111, the second side plate 112 and two connecting plates 113, the two connecting plates 113 oppositely arranged and spaced to improve the structural strength of the shield 11.

[0047] Please refer to Figure 3 , the end surface of the tail end 901 of the male connector 90 is provided with a spring 92, which can be used for pressing by hand to release the plug-in of the male connector 90 and the female connector, so as to separate the male connector 90 and the female connector.

[0048] In some embodiments, the connecting plate 113 is provided with an avoiding gap 1131 which is communicated with the connecting channel 101 and is used for inserting an external tool or finger into the connecting channel 101. When the protection member 11 is connected with the male connector 90, the connecting plate 113 of the protection member 11 is arranged on the side far away from the elastic sheet 92. When the elastic sheet 92 needs to be operated, the external tool or finger can be inserted into the connecting channel 101 through the avoiding gap 1131, so as to avoid affecting the normal operation of the male connector 90.

[0049] Please refer to Figure 2 and Figure 4 In some embodiments, the connecting member 10 further comprises a clamping structure 12, and the connecting member 10 is clamped to the male connector 90 through the clamping structure 12. The tail end 901 of the male connector 90 is circumferentially provided with a flange 91 which protrudes from the circumferential surface of the body portion of the male connector 90. The flange 91 has opposite inner side 911 and outer side 912. The inner side 911 of the flange 91 is directed to the insertion direction of the male connector 90, and the outer side 912 of the flange 91 is directed away from the insertion direction of the male connector 90. The clamping structure 12 of the connecting member 10 can be clamped with the flange 91 to achieve detachable connection with the male connector 90.

[0050] Specifically, the clamping structure 12 comprises a clamping head 121 and a limiting block 122 which are both connected to the protection member 11. The clamping head 121 is used to abut against the inner side 911 of the flange 91, and the limiting block 122 is used to abut against the outer side 912 of the flange 91. When the connecting member 10 needs to be clamped to the male connector 90, the connecting member 10 can be pushed along the insertion direction of the male connector 90 until the clamping head 121 deforms elastically to pass over the flange 91 and abut against the inner side 911 of the flange 91. At this time, the limiting block 122 abuts against the outer side 912 of the flange 91. In this way, the clamping head 121 limits the reverse movement of the protection member 11 along the insertion direction, and the limiting block 122 limits the movement of the protection member 11 along the insertion direction.

[0051] Optionally, the clamping joint 121 is provided with four, two on the side of the first side plate 111 facing the second side plate 112 and two on the side of the second side plate 112 facing the first side plate 111, the two clamping joints 121 on the same side are spaced to avoid the protruding part on the peripheral side of the body part of the male connector 90, which can also limit the movement of the connecting member 10 in the direction parallel to the first side plate 111. The limiting block 122 is provided with two, two limiting blocks 122 are respectively arranged on the side of the first side plate 111 facing the second side plate 112 and the side of the second side plate 112 facing the first side plate 111, the limiting block 122 can extend in the direction parallel to the end surface of the tail end 901 of the male connector 90 and form a strip to increase the limiting length and improve the stability of the clamping structure 12 and the flange 91.

[0052] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 In some embodiments, the handheld member 20 includes a first handheld plate 21 and a second handheld plate 22, the first handheld plate 21 is connected to the side of the first side plate 111 away from the male connector 90, and the second handheld plate 22 is connected to the side of the second side plate 112 away from the male connector 90, the first handheld plate 21 and the second handheld plate 22 both extend along the bending path, and the first handheld plate 21 and the second handheld plate 22 are spaced apart. The first handheld plate 21 and the second handheld plate 22 provide a handheld position and increase the area of the handheld area of the connector protection device 100. At the same time, a guide channel 201 can also be formed between the first handheld plate 21 and the second handheld plate 22, the extension 82 of the wire 80 can pass out of the end of the protection member 11 away from the male connector 90, or can pass out of the guide channel 201. Among them, the first handheld plate 21 and the second handheld plate 22 can be parallel and oppositely arranged in the normal direction perpendicular to their planes.

[0053] When passing through the guide channel 201, the limiting of the wire 80 can be provided by the palm when the hand holds the handheld member 20, that is, the palm pushes the extension 82 of the wire 80 to the hand holding the first handheld plate 21 and the second handheld plate 22 at the same time, at this time the space between the hand and the first handheld plate 21 and the second handheld plate 22 can be passed through by the extension of the wire 80, and the hand exerts force on the first handheld plate 21 and the second handheld plate 22 to avoid the wire 80 being pressed.

[0054] Optionally, the connecting plate 113 is arranged on the opposite side of the connecting member 10 respectively with the handheld member 20, i.e. the first handheld plate 21 and the second handheld plate 22 are connected to the opening side of the protection member 11. The connecting plate 113 can also be non-flat, but includes a flat plate part 113a and a guide part 113b. The flat plate part 113a can be perpendicular to the end face of the male connector 90 tail end 901, and the guide part 113b can be bent towards the handheld member 20 direction relative to the connecting part, so as to deflect the starting section 81 of the wire 80 towards the channel opening of the guide channel 201. The guide part 113b can be flat or arc-shaped.

[0055] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 In order to improve the limiting effect on the extending section 82 of the wire 80, the handheld member 20 further includes a guide plate 23 connecting the first handheld plate 21 and the second handheld plate 22. The guide plate 23 extends along the bending path, i.e. the extending direction of the guide plate 23 is the same as that of the first handheld plate 21 and the second handheld plate 22. The arrangement of the guide plate 23 can improve the structural stability and structural strength of the part of the handheld member 20, so as to improve the supporting effect of the hand. The guide plate 23 can also guide the running direction of the extending section 82 of the wire 80, so as to limit the swing of the extending section 82. In actual application, the extending section 82 of the wire 80 can be close to the guide plate 23 under the limitation of the hand or the belt, so as to reduce the swing of the starting section 81 of the wire 80 relative to the male connector 90, and reduce the possibility of poor contact between the wire 80 and the male connector 90.

[0056] Optionally, the guide plate 23 is connected to the connecting plate 113, so as to improve the structural stability of the connector protection device 100, and can guide the running direction of the wire 80 together with the connecting plate 113. The guide plate 23 can be connected to the end of the guide part 113b of the connecting plate 113 away from the flat plate part 113a. At this time, the guide plate 23 is connected to the side of the first handheld plate 21 and the second handheld plate 22 close to the connecting plate 113, the cross section of the handheld member 20 is U-shaped, and the guide plate 23, the first handheld plate 21 and the second handheld plate 22 jointly form the guide channel 201. The guide channel 201 forms an opening on the opposite side of the guide plate 23, so as to avoid the wire 80 when the connector protection device 100 is assembled with the male connector 90, and improve the heat dissipation effect of the wire 80. In the illustrated embodiment, the opening of the guide channel 201 is inclined towards the direction of the male connector 90.

[0057] Please refer to Figure 1In some embodiments, the connector protection device 100 further comprises a limiting protrusion 30 protruding from the sidewall of the handheld member 20, the limiting protrusion 30 is spaced apart from the connecting member 10, and the limiting protrusion 30 is used to limit the strap wound on the handheld member 20 and located between the limiting protrusion 30 and the connecting member 10 from slipping off the handheld member 20. When arranged, the extension of the wire can be first attached to the guide plate 23, then the strap is wound on the handheld member 20, and the wire is wound together with the handheld member 20, or the wire is limited in the guide channel 201 formed by the strap and the handheld member 20. At this time, the limiting protrusion 30 can limit the strap from slipping off the handheld member 20, thereby improving the reliability during use.

[0058] Optionally, two limiting protrusions 30 are provided, one limiting protrusion 30 is arranged on the side of the first handheld plate 21 away from the guide plate 23, and the limiting protrusion 30 and the edge of the first handheld plate 21 and the edge of the first side plate 111 jointly form a groove-shaped structure 301. The other limiting protrusion 30 is arranged on the side of the second handheld plate 22 away from the guide plate 23, and the limiting protrusion 30 and the edge of the second handheld plate 22 and the edge of the second side plate 112 jointly form a groove-shaped structure 301, and the strap can be wound at the bottom of the two groove-shaped structures 301. In this way, the limiting protrusion 30 protrudes towards the male connector 90, which can reduce the occupation of external space by the limiting protrusion 30. The limiting protrusion 30 can be arranged at the end of the corresponding handheld plate away from the connecting member 10 to increase the space of the groove-shaped structure 301. In other embodiments, the limiting protrusion 30 can also be arranged at a position close to the middle of the corresponding handheld plate, which is not limited here.

[0059] In other embodiments, the guide channel 201 can also be a circumferentially closed channel, that is, the handheld member 20 comprises the first handheld plate 21, the second handheld plate 22 and two guide plates 23, and the two guide plates 23 are spaced apart. At this time, the limiting protrusion 30 and the strap do not need to be arranged.

[0060] The arrangement of the connector protection device 100 is not limited to the above embodiments. Please refer to Figure 5 In another embodiment, the handheld member 20 is connected to the side of the connecting member 10 where the connecting plate 113 is arranged, and the guide plate 23 is connected to the connecting plate 113. At this time, the opening of the guide channel 201 formed by the handheld member 20 is inclined towards the direction away from the male connector 90. This arrangement saves the arrangement area of the connecting plate 113, and the connecting plate 113 does not shield the connecting channel 101, which is convenient for the operator to observe the position of the wire and facilitate the connector protection device 100 to avoid the wire when assembling on the male connector 90.

[0061] Optionally, the limiting protrusion 30 can extend along the edge of the end of the handheld member 20 away from the connecting member 10 to increase the length of the limiting area and improve the limiting effect on the strap.

[0062] To improve the structural reliability near the handheld component 20, the connector protection device 100 also includes a first reinforcing rib 40 for the connection limiting protrusion 30, the guide plate 23, and the connecting plate 113. The first reinforcing rib 40 can improve the support force of the handheld component 20 when a person applies force to it, and reduce the possibility of deformation or breakage of the handheld component 20.

[0063] To improve the structural reliability of the first hand plate 21 and the second hand plate 22, a second reinforcing rib 50 may be provided on the side of the first side plate 111 facing away from the second side plate 112 and on the side of the second side plate 112 facing away from the first side plate 111. The second reinforcing rib 50 may extend along the edge of the corresponding side plate to improve the rigidity of the corresponding side plate and reduce the possibility of deformation under pressure.

[0064] Please see Figure 5 and Figure 6 When the protective member 11 is connected to the male connector 90, the connecting plate 113 side of the protective member 11 can be positioned away from the spring contact 92. At this time, the notch formed on the connecting channel 101 can also allow external tools or fingers to be inserted into the connecting channel 101, so as to facilitate the operation of the spring contact 92 by external tools or fingers. Therefore, it is not necessary to open an avoidance notch 1131 on the connecting plate 113. In this embodiment, the side of the first side plate 111 facing the second side plate 112 and the side of the second side plate 112 facing the first side plate 111 can each be provided with only one snap-fit ​​connector 121 and one limiting block 122. Another snap-fit ​​connector 121 is provided on the connecting plate 113 to improve the snap-fit ​​stability between the connecting member 10 and the male connector 90.

[0065] To facilitate the engagement of the snap-fit ​​connector 121 at the flange 91, the first side plate 111 may have a deformation notch 1132 on one or both sides of the corresponding snap-fit ​​connector 121, allowing the first side plate 111 to undergo slight elastic deformation at the corresponding snap-fit ​​connector 121, thus allowing the snap-fit ​​connector 121 to extend beyond the flange 91. Similarly, the second side plate 112 may have a deformation notch 1132 on one or both sides of the corresponding snap-fit ​​connector 121, allowing the second side plate 112 to undergo slight elastic deformation at the corresponding snap-fit ​​connector 121, thus allowing the snap-fit ​​connector 121 to extend beyond the flange 91. The connecting plate 113 also has deformation notches 1132 on both sides of the corresponding snap-fit ​​connector 121, allowing the connecting plate 113 to undergo slight elastic deformation at the corresponding snap-fit ​​connector 121, thus allowing the snap-fit ​​connector 121 to extend beyond the flange 91.

[0066] The above merely describes several specific embodiments of the present application, and only specifically describes the technical principles of the present application. These descriptions are only for the purpose of explaining the principles of the present application, and cannot be interpreted in any way as a limitation on the protection scope of the present application. Based on the explanations here, any modifications, equivalent replacements and improvements made within the scope of the present application, and other specific embodiments of the present application that can be conceived by those skilled in the art without creative labor, should be included in the protection scope of the present application.
