[0035] The application field of the connector is wide, such as automation, industrial control and communication equipment fields. The connector is an electrical connector, which is used in electrical and electronic equipment to connect circuits or devices, such as connecting two active devices to transmit current or electrical signals. In the prior art, the connector includes a connector plug, the connector plug is used to be plugged with a socket, and a sealing member is arranged on the socket of the connector plug to protect the electronic devices inside the connector plug.
[0036] However, the sealing member is prone to uneven force and inward indentation during the assembly of the sealing member, resulting in poor sealing effect of the sealing member. In addition, in some cases, such as during the plugging or unplugging of the connector plug with the socket, the sealing member is also prone to uneven force and inward indentation.

The connector plug comprises: a body, the body having a mounting cavity; a plugging member, the plugging member being partially arranged in the mounting cavity, one end of the plugging member in the plugging direction being used to be connected with a cable, and the other end being used to be connected with a socket; a sealing member, the sealing member being sleeved on one end of the plugging member and being connected with the body; and a reinforcing member, the reinforcing member being arranged on the body and being connected with the sealing member to support the sealing member. By arranging the reinforcing member on the body and connecting the reinforcing member with the sealing member, the contact surface of the body and the sealing member is expanded, and the connection strength of the body and the sealing member is enhanced. When the body itself has manufacturing defects or is subjected to external forces such as sudden impact or bumping, the reinforcing member can disperse stress and provide support for the sealing member, so that the sealing member is subjected to uniform force, the possibility of inward indentation of the sealing member is reduced, the sealing effect of the sealing member is avoided to be invalid due to deformation of the body, and the sealing effect and sealing stability of the sealing member are improved.
[0038] The present application will be described in detail below in conjunction with Figs. 1-2 and specific embodiments. Fig. 1 The structural schematic diagram of the connector plug provided by the embodiments of the present application is provided. Fig. 2 The structural schematic diagram of the reinforcing member provided by the embodiments of the present application is provided.
[0039] In one aspect, the application provides a connector plug, comprising: a body 100, the body 100 having a mounting cavity; a plug-in part 200, the plug-in part 200 being partially inserted into the mounting cavity, one end of the plug-in part 200 in the insertion direction being used for connecting with a cable, the other end being used for connecting with a socket; a sealing member 300, the sealing member 300 being sleeved on one end of the plug-in part 200 and connected with the body 100; and a reinforcing member 400, the reinforcing member 400 being arranged on the body 100 and connected with the sealing member 300 to support the sealing member 300.
[0040] The body 100 has a mounting cavity for mounting the plug-in part 200 to realize electrical connection. The plug-in part 200 comprises a sleeve and a cable mounting cavity 210, and the sleeve is arranged at one end of the cable mounting cavity 210. The mounting cavity has a first mounting cavity and a second mounting cavity in communication, the sleeve is arranged in the first mounting cavity, and there is a gap between the sleeve and the inner wall of the first mounting cavity to facilitate cooperation with the socket, and the cable mounting cavity 210 is arranged in the second mounting cavity and used for connecting the cable. It should be noted that the shape and structure of the cable mounting cavity 210 are not limited in the application, as long as the cable connection can be realized, for example, the cable mounting cavity 210 is a flat metal piece, and the end of the flat metal piece is used for welding the cable.
[0041] It should be noted that the extension direction of the first mounting cavity and the extension direction of the second mounting cavity can be on the same straight line, so that the body 100 is columnar, at this time, the plug-in part 200 and the body 100 can be integrally formed, or the plug-in part 200 and the body 100 can be separately arranged to realize detachable connection. Of course, the extension direction of the first mounting cavity and the extension direction of the second mounting cavity can not be on the same straight line, for example, the extension direction of the first mounting cavity and the extension direction of the second mounting cavity are perpendicular to each other, at this time, the plug-in part 200 and the body 100 can be integrally formed. It should be noted that the distribution of the first mounting cavity and the second mounting cavity can be designed according to the actual situation, and the embodiment of the application does not limit this, as long as the function of the plug-in part 200 can be realized.
[0042] Moreover, the mounting cavity of the body 100 is used for arranging the plug-in part 200, and through the layout of the first mounting cavity and the second mounting cavity, the sleeve and the cable mounting cavity 210 are arranged as needed, so that different functional parts are installed in order, and in a complex electrical environment, a stable current transmission path can be maintained, and the risk of poor electrical contact or open circuit caused by improper installation is reduced.
[0043] The sealing member 300 is in a columnar shape, is sleeved on one end of the plug-in member 200, and is arranged at the end of the body 100 to seal and protect the plug-in member 200 and the cable. For example, in an environment with dust, water vapor and other adverse factors, the intrusion of external impurities can be effectively prevented, the electrical performance degradation or short circuit caused by impurities can be prevented, and the service life of the connector plug can be prolonged.
[0044] The reinforcing member 400 is arranged on the body 100, for example, is arranged at the end of the body 100 and is connected with the sealing member 300 to support the sealing member 300. The reinforcing member 400 is arranged in the inside of the connector plug, enhances the connection strength with the sealing member, prevents the sealing effect of the sealing member from being invalid due to the deformation of the body 100, such as sudden impact or collision, or frequent use of the plug and socket of the connector, or the process of assembling the sealing member 300. The structure of the reinforcing member 400 is not limited in the application. For example, the reinforcing member 400 can be a reinforcing rib, a boss or a rib plate. It should be noted that the reinforcing member 400 increases the contact area of the body 100 and the sealing member 300, enhances the connection strength of the body 100 and the sealing member 300, makes the stress of the sealing member uniform, avoids the inward indentation of the sealing member, and improves the sealing effect of the sealing member.
[0045] The connector plug in the embodiment of the application is arranged on the body 100 and connected with the sealing member 300 through the reinforcing member 400, expands the contact surface of the body 100 and the sealing member 300, and enhances the connection strength of the body 100 and the sealing member 300. When the body 100 itself has manufacturing defects or is subjected to external force such as sudden impact or collision, the reinforcing member 400 can disperse stress, provide support for the sealing member, make the stress of the sealing member uniform, reduce the possibility of inward indentation of the sealing member, avoid the invalidation of the sealing effect of the sealing member 300 due to the deformation of the body 100, and improve the sealing effect and stability of the sealing member.
[0046] The materials and processes of the body 100, the plug-in member 200, the sealing member 300 and the reinforcing member 400 are not limited in the application. For example, the plug-in member 200 and the body 100 are plastic-coated, the plug-in member 200 is a metal piece, the body 100 is a plastic piece, the sealing member 300 is a rubber piece, and the reinforcing member 400 is a plastic piece.
[0047] The structure of the sealing member 300 is not limited in the application. For example, the sealing member 300 is a sealing sleeve, which can be a circular sleeve, a square sleeve or a sleeve combined with a circle and a square, and the shape can be related to the actual situation. The embodiment of the application does not limit this. For example, one end facing the body 100 is a circular sleeve, and the other end away from the body 100 is a square sleeve.
[0048] In some other embodiments, the connector plug provided by the embodiments of the present application further comprises an outer shell 500, which is sleeved on the body 100, and has a receiving cavity in which the sealing member 300 is located.
[0049] In a possible implementation, the connector plug provided by the embodiments of the present application has a mounting surface 111 at one end of the mounting cavity, and the sealing member 300 and the reinforcing member 400 are arranged on the mounting surface 111.
[0050] Specifically, the body 100 has a mounting surface at one end, and the mounting surface 111 is located at the end of the mounting cavity. The embodiments of the present application do not limit the shape of the mounting surface, for example, the mounting surface is annular. The sealing member 300 and the reinforcing member 400 are arranged on the mounting surface 111, so that the sealing member 300 and the reinforcing member 400 are located in the same plane.
[0051] The sealing member 300 and the reinforcing member 400 are arranged on the mounting surface 111, for example, the reinforcing member 400 is also annular, and the inner ring diameter of the reinforcing member 400 is greater than or equal to the inner ring diameter of the mounting surface. The axis of the sealing member 300, the axis of the reinforcing member 400 and the axis of the mounting surface 111 are on the same straight line. Such coaxial arrangement enables the sealing member 300 to uniformly transmit stress when the sealing member 300 is stressed or the body 100 is stressed, thereby reducing stress concentration.
[0052] In a possible implementation, the connector plug provided by the embodiments of the present application has the reinforcing member 400 circumferentially arranged on the mounting surface 111, and the sealing member 300 has a fitting portion 310 at one end facing the mounting surface, and the fitting portion 310 is connected with the reinforcing member 400.
[0053] For example, the reinforcing member 400 can be a complete annular ring circumferentially arranged on the mounting surface 111, or can be a plurality of arc-shaped portions circumferentially arranged on the mounting surface 111 at intervals. The sealing member 300 has a fitting portion 310 at one end facing the mounting surface, for example, the fitting portion 310 can be a convex annular structure matched with the reinforcing member 400, thereby increasing the contact area of the two and enhancing the connection strength of the sealing member 300 and the body 100.
[0054] The reinforcing member 400 provides stable boundary constraints for the sealing member 300. Under the support of the reinforcing member 400, the sealing member 300 can better maintain its shape and position, and prevent deformation or displacement of the sealing member 300 due to external pressure, which may cause sealing failure. The fitting portion 310 and the reinforcing member 400 can further enhance the sealing performance, protect the electrical connection environment of the internal plug-in connector 200 and the cable from external interference, and thereby improve the protection performance and service life of the entire connector plug.
[0055] Exemplarily, the outer diameter of the reinforcing member 400 abuts against the inner diameter of the sealing member 300. That is, the outer periphery of the reinforcing member 400 abuts against the inner periphery of the sealing member 300.
[0056] In a possible implementation, the connector plug provided by the embodiment of the present application has at least two reinforcing portions 410, the two reinforcing portions 410 are spaced apart and oppositely arranged, and the outer side of the reinforcing portion 410 abuts against the inner wall of the sealing member 300.
[0057] For example, the number of reinforcing portions 410 is two, and the two reinforcing portions 410 are both arc-shaped, and the outer side of the reinforcing portion 410 abuts against the inner wall of the sealing member 300. For example, the outer side of the reinforcing portion 410 can directly abut against the inner wall of the sealing member 300, and of course, the outer side of the reinforcing portion 410 can also abut against the outer side of the fitting portion 310 of the sealing member 300.
[0058] It can be understood that the at least two reinforcing portions 410 can avoid the connection damage caused by the stress concentration of a single part, and enhance the connection strength of the sealing member 300 and the body 100.
[0059] In the connector plug provided by the embodiment of the present application, one end of the plug-in member 200 has a cable mounting cavity 210, at least two avoiding portions 411 are formed between the adjacent end portions of the at least two reinforcing portions 410, and the two ends of the cable mounting cavity 210 are respectively connected with the two avoiding portions 411.
[0060] It can be understood that the two ends of the cable mounting cavity 210 are respectively connected with the two avoiding portions 411, so as to reserve space for the cable mounting cavity 210 and avoid affecting the connection with the cable.
[0061] In a possible implementation, the connector plug provided by the embodiment of the present application has an arc-shaped reinforcing member 400. It should be noted that the arc-shaped reinforcing member 400 can better assemble with the sealing member 300, smoothly transition the stress, and limit the excessive displacement and deformation of the sealing member 300.
[0062] In a possible implementation, the connector plug provided by the embodiment of the present application has an inclined surface on the side of the reinforcing member 400 facing the sealing member 300, and the inclined surface is inclined toward the plug-in member 200. The inclined surface facilitates the optimization of the force transmission path. When the connector plug is subjected to external force, the inclined surface can guide part of the external force to disperse along the inclined direction, so as to avoid the excessive local stress at the connection between the sealing member 300 and the reinforcing member 400.
[0063] In a possible implementation, the connector plug provided by the embodiment of the present application has a reinforcing member 400 with a thickness of 0.3mm-0.7mm and a height of 0.8mm-1.2mm.
[0064] For example, the thickness of the reinforcing member 400 is 0.5mm, and the height of the reinforcing member 400 is 1mm. The specific data can be adjusted according to the actual situation.
[0065] In another aspect, the application also provides a connector, comprising a body and the connector plug of any one of the above embodiments arranged on the body.
[0066] The structure of the connector is not limited in the application. For example, the connector can be a circular connector, a strip-shaped connector or a rectangular connector. The connector can also be a consumer electronic connector, an industrial connector or an automobile connector. The embodiments of the application are not limited in this regard.
[0067] For example, the connector comprises a body, the body comprises a socket, the plug-in part of the connector plug is used to plug with the socket, when the electrical connection is needed, the socket is plugged with the plug-in part, when the electrical connection is not needed, the socket is separated from the plug-in part. It should be noted that the reinforcing member 400 is arranged inside the connector plug, which enhances the connection strength with the sealing member, prevents the sealing effect of the sealing member from being invalid due to the deformation of the body 100, such as sudden impact or collision.
[0068] Other embodiments of the application will be apparent to those skilled in the art from consideration of the specification and practice of the application disclosed herein.
