Detailed Implementation

[0021] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0022] Please see Figure 1 This embodiment provides a high-efficiency copper connector, including a connector body 1, a connector head 2 fixed on the left side of the connector body 1, a quick connection mechanism 3 on the left side of the connector head 2, and locking mechanisms 4 at both the upper and lower ends of the left side of the connector body 1.

[0023] Please see Figure 2 To secure the copper component, the quick-connect mechanism 3 in this embodiment includes a through hole 301 on the left side of the connector 2, a vertical groove 302 on the right side of the through hole 301, a copper rod 303 inside the through hole 301, a sealing ring 304 fixed to the outer surface of the copper rod 303, and an external threaded ring 305 fixed to the right side of the sealing ring 304. The rotation of the sealing ring 304 causes the external threaded ring 305 to rotate, thereby screwing the external threaded ring 305 into the inner cavity of the threaded groove. The external threaded ring 305 is fixed to the connector 2, thereby fixing the copper rod 303 to the connector 2 and fixing the copper rod 303 to the connector body 1. A connecting block 306 is fixed to the right side of the copper rod 303. The copper rod 303 is inserted into the inner cavity of the through hole 301, and the longer side of the connecting block 306 is in a horizontal state until the connecting block 306 enters the inner cavity of the vertical groove 302. The copper rod 303 can be rotated, and the rotation of the copper rod 303 causes the connecting block 306 to rotate to a vertical state.

[0024] In this embodiment, the width of the inner cavity of the through hole 301 is adapted to the width of the connecting block 306, the length and width of the inner cavity of the vertical groove 302 are adapted to the length and width of the connecting block 306, the outer diameter of the sealing ring 304 is larger than the inner diameter of the through hole 301, and the length of the vertical groove 302 in the vertical direction is larger than the length of the through hole 301 in the vertical direction.

[0025] The connector 2 has a threaded groove on its left side, and the threaded groove is threadedly connected to the external threaded ring 305.

[0026] It should be noted that the rapid insertion and fixing of the copper rod 303 is achieved, which greatly shortens the installation time and improves work efficiency. The application of the sealing ring 304 and threaded connection ensures the sealing and firmness of the connection, reduces the risk of loosening and failure, not only prevents liquid or gas leakage, but also protects the internal components from the influence of the external environment and extends the service life of the connector body 1.

[0027] Please see Figures 3 to 4 To improve the stability of fixing the copper rod 303, the locking mechanism 4 in this embodiment includes a fixing plate 401 fixed to the upper and lower ends of the left side of the connector body 1. A connecting plate 402 is fixed in the middle between opposite sides of the left and right side walls of the inner cavity of the fixing plate 401. Telescopic rods 403 are fixed to the left and right ends of the front and rear sides of the connecting plate 402. A return spring 404 is movably sleeved on the outer surface of the telescopic rod 403. A linkage plate 405 is fixed to the opposite side of the front and rear telescopic rods 403. The upper and lower linkage plates 405 are also fixed to the connecting plate 405. A movable plate 406 is fixed between opposite sides. A positioning block 407 is fixed in the middle of opposite sides of the movable plates 406. Before the copper rod 303 is fixed, the movable plates 406 on both sides are pulled to move away from the connector 2. The movement of the movable plates 406 causes the upper and lower linkage plates 405 to move away from the fixed plate 401. The movement of the linkage plates 405 will cause the telescopic rod 403 and the return spring 404 to extend, thereby causing the positioning block 407 to move with the movement of the movable plates 406.

[0028] In this embodiment, fixing holes are provided on both the front and rear sides of the fixing plate 401. The size of the inner cavity of the fixing hole is larger than the size of the linkage plate 405. The shape of the fixing plate 401 is a cuboid with a hollow interior and a missing lower surface. Mounting holes are provided on both the front and rear sides of the connector 2.

[0029] Furthermore, once the copper rod 303 and the connecting block 306 can enter the inner cavity of the through hole 301, and the copper rod 303 is fixed to the connector 2, the limit on the moving plate 406 can be released. After the return spring 404 is no longer compressed, it rebounds and drives the telescopic rod 403 to shorten, thereby causing the linkage plates 405 on the upper and lower sides to drive the moving plate 406 to move closer to the connector 2. This causes the positioning blocks 407 on the front and rear sides to move relative to each other, which can fit and clamp the outer surface of the copper rod 303.

[0030] The size of the positioning block 407 is adapted to the size of the inner cavity of the mounting hole, and the side of the positioning block 407 facing the copper rod 303 is an arc surface.

[0031] It should be noted that the locking mechanism 4 improves the stability of fixing the copper rod 303 and ensures a stable connection with the connector body 1.

[0032] The working principle of the above embodiments is as follows:

[0033] (1) When in use, first insert the copper rod 303 into the inner cavity of the through hole 301 and make the longer side of the connecting block 306 horizontal until the connecting block 306 enters the inner cavity of the vertical groove 302. The copper rod 303 can be rotated. The rotation of the copper rod 303 causes the connecting block 306 to rotate to the vertical state. At this time, the rotation of the sealing ring 304 drives the external thread ring 305 to rotate, so that the external thread ring 305 is screwed into the inner cavity of the thread groove. The external thread ring 305 can be fixed to the connector 2, so that the copper rod 303 can be fixed on the connector 2, and the copper rod 303 can be fixed to the connector body 1.

[0034] (2) In order to improve the stability of fixing the copper rod 303, before fixing the copper rod 303, the moving plates 406 on both sides can be pulled to move away from the connector 2. The movement of the moving plates 406 will drive the upper and lower linkage plates 405 to move away from the fixing plate 401. The movement of the linkage plates 405 will drive the telescopic rod 403 and the return spring 404 to extend, so that the positioning block 407 moves with the movement of the moving plates 406 until the copper rod 303 and the connector 306 can enter the inner cavity of the through hole 301. After the copper rod 303 is fixed with the connector 2, the limit on the moving plate 406 can be released. After the return spring 404 is not squeezed, it rebounds and drives the telescopic rod 403 to shorten, so that the upper and lower linkage plates 405 drive the moving plates 406 to move closer to the connector 2, so that the positioning blocks 407 on the front and rear sides can move relative to each other, so that the outer surface of the copper rod 303 can be attached and clamped for positioning.
