Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to an electrical connector, specifically an environmentally resistant and explosion-proof circular electrical connector. Background Technology
[0002] With the widespread application of electrical connector technology, it is being used in more and more special environments. In particular, for harsh environments and occasions with potential explosion hazards, it is necessary to use electrical connectors that are safe and have a long service life. The head and base of the existing protective electrical connectors adopt an end-to-end mating and pin-hole plugging structure. The resulting pinhole gap and end-to-end gap are prone to generating electric arcs, which affects the explosion-proof performance. At the same time, the electric arcs will also affect the insulation performance of the mating and plugging points, thus affecting the overall safety and service life. Summary of the Invention
[0003] This utility model provides an environmentally friendly explosion-proof circular electrical connector with a simple structure and comprehensive sealing, environmental resistance, stable insulation and explosion-proof properties.
[0004] The technical solution adopted by this utility model is: an environmentally resistant explosion-proof circular electrical connector, including a plug and a socket. The plug's head housing contains a pin assembly, and the socket's base housing contains a corresponding socket assembly. The pin assembly comprises a pin sintering plate, front and rear insulating plates, pins, and a pin insulating pad. Multiple pins pass through the pin sintering plate, which is sintered with glass within the head housing. The front and rear insulating plates are respectively positioned at the front and rear of the pin sintering plate. A pin insulating pad is glued forward-facing onto the front insulating plate. Multiple pins pass through a pin insulating pad. An arc-extinguishing boss, which extends above the front end of the pin insulating pad and wraps around the pin with the pin as its axis, is integrally provided on the pin insulating pad at the pin protrusion position. The socket assembly includes a socket sintering plate, front and rear insulating plates, and sockets. Multiple sockets pass through the socket sintering plate, which is sintered with glass in the housing. The front and rear insulating plates are respectively located at the front and rear of the socket sintering plate. An arc-extinguishing groove, which is lower than the front end of the front insulating plate and corresponds to the arc-extinguishing boss, is integrally provided on the socket insulating plate at the pin protrusion position.
[0005] A silicone pad is provided between the pin sintering plate and the front insulating plate or the rear insulating plate of the pin.
[0006] The pins and holes are provided with one or more sintering bosses or sintering grooves on the outer circumference of the glass sintering position.
[0007] An environmentally resistant explosion-proof circular electrical connector includes a plug and a socket. The plug's head housing contains a pin assembly, and the socket's base housing contains a corresponding socket assembly. The pin assembly comprises a pin injection plate, front and rear insulating plates, pins, and pin insulating pads. Multiple pins pass through the pin injection plate, which is molded into the head housing. The front and rear insulating plates are respectively positioned before and after the pin injection plate. A pin insulating pad is glued forward-facing onto the front insulating plate. Multiple pins pass through the socket... The needle insulating pad has an arc-extinguishing boss integrally formed on the needle insertion position, which is higher than the front end face of the needle insulating pad and wraps around the needle with the needle as the axis; the socket assembly includes a socket injection plate, front and rear insulating plates and sockets, and multiple sockets are connected to the socket injection plate which is injection molded in the housing. The front and rear insulating plates are respectively set in front of and behind the socket injection plate. The socket insulating plate has an arc-extinguishing groove integrally formed on the insertion position of the socket at the insertion position, which is lower than the front end face of the front insulating plate and corresponds to the arc-extinguishing boss.
[0008] A silicone pad is provided between the pin injection plate and the front insulating plate or the rear insulating plate of the pin.
[0009] The silicone pad is fitted into a groove around the center of the pin.
[0010] The outer end face and outer periphery of the arc-extinguishing boss are respectively inserted into the arc-extinguishing groove.
[0011] The cross-sections of the arc-extinguishing bosses corresponding to the multiple pins may be the same or different.
[0012] The pin and the insertion hole are provided with one or more glue injection bosses or glue injection grooves on the outer circumference of the glue injection molding position.
[0013] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0014] 1. A silicone pad and a glue injection plate or sintered plate are set between the front and rear insulating plates of the plug and socket. The integral molding structure is stable and has good sealing performance, which meets the environmental sealing requirements and is also conducive to explosion-proof performance.
[0015] 2. At the joint of the plug and socket, an insulating pad is used to connect the plug and socket to the front insulating plate of the socket. An arc-extinguishing protrusion is set on the insulating pad corresponding to the plug. The arc-extinguishing protrusion corresponds to the sealing groove of the front insulating plate of the socket. While ensuring the stability of the plug connection, the joint surfaces are staggered at the plug and socket insertion positions to eliminate the electric arc. This ensures stable insulation performance and comprehensively improves explosion-proof performance and safety of use. Attached Figure Description
