Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of male connectors, and particularly relates to a male connector. Background Technology
[0002] The controller housing and gearbox housing of a car need to be protected against not only water vapor leakage but also gasoline leakage. Therefore, a male connector is installed between the controller housing and the gearbox housing to achieve electrical connection between the controller housing and the gearbox housing.
[0003] Typically, male connectors work together using a connector body mounted on the cylinder block and a female connector located inside the cylinder block. The female connector primarily mates with the end face of the connector body facing inwards and transmits signals. In existing technologies, the female connector and connector body mostly use a plug-in structure, relying on friction between them to achieve connection. However, the contact surface structure between the female connector and connector body is simple, resulting in low friction. Under high-speed driving conditions, the female connector and connector body are prone to loosening, causing signal transmission distortion. Utility Model Content
