Detailed Implementation
[0029] To address the problems of traditional RF connectors requiring additional labels, color rings, or documentation to identify their purpose and connection direction, which are prone to label detachment and difficulty in color ring identification, this invention provides an RF connector with integrated identification functionality. The technical solutions of this invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of this invention, not all of them. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of this invention without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this invention.
[0030] Please see Figure 1-9This utility model provides an RF connector with an identification function, including an RF connector body 1. An identification area 101 is provided on the outer periphery of the RF connector body 1. An identification plate 2 is provided at the identification area 101, and identification information is provided on the identification plate 2. A protective cylinder 305 is provided below the identification plate 2 and the protective cylinder 305 has guide grooves 306 on both sides for moving the locking rod 3023. The depth of the guide grooves 306 is greater than the depth of the inner groove 301, so that the locking rod 3023 moves out of the locking groove 104 and connects to the protective cylinder 305 for rotation.
[0031] The sign 2 is connected to the signage area 101 via a locking member 3. The locking member 3 includes content slots 301 on both sides of the sign 2, with a locking bolt 302 disposed within each content slot 301. A locking spring 303 is located below the locking bolt 302 within each content slot 301, allowing the locking bolt 302 to move elastically within the content slot 301 via the locking spring 303. A channel 304 for the movement of the locking bolt 302 is provided at the bottom end of the content slot 301. The locking bolt 302 includes a locking cap 3021, the lower part of which is connected to a locking rod 3023 via a connecting rod 3022. The locking rod 3023 is rectangular in shape. A rotating groove 3024 for screwdriver insertion is provided on the upper part of the locking cap 3021. The inner diameter of the inner groove 301 is larger than the outer diameter of the locking cap 3021, so that the locking cap 3021 moves downward in the inner groove 301.
[0032] The RF connector body 1 has slides 102 on both sides of the marking area 101 for sliding the locking rod 302. A rotating groove 103 is provided at the tail end of the slides 102, and the diameter of the rotating groove 103 matches the length of the locking rod 3023 so that the locking rod 3023 can rotate inside the rotating groove 103. The upper wall of the rotating groove 103 has a locking groove 104 for engaging the locking rod 3023, and the shape of the locking groove 104 matches the locking rod 3023.
[0033] The working principle of the RF connector with identification function provided by this utility model is as follows:
[0034] Installation of sign 2:
[0035] Place the label 2 in the labeling area 101 of the RF connector body 1, so that the locking parts 3 on both sides of the label 2 are aligned with the slide rails 102 on the RF connector body 1.
[0036] Place the sign 2 against the side of the sign area 101, and move the sign 2 to the side of the sign area 101 so that the locking rod 3023 of the locking component 3 slides into the rotating groove 103 through the slide 102. At this time, insert a screwdriver into the rotating groove 3024 on the upper part of the locking cap 3021 and apply downward pressure through the screwdriver so that the locking cap 3021 moves down against the elastic force of the locking spring 303.
[0037] As the locking cap 3021 moves downward, the connecting rod 3022 connected to it drives the locking rod 3023 downward through the channel 304. Rotating the screwdriver causes the locking rod 3023 to rotate within the rotating groove 103 until it aligns with the locking groove 104 on the upper wall of the rotating groove 103. Releasing the pressure on the screwdriver, the locking rod 3023 is then engaged in the locking groove 104 under the action of the spring, completing the locking and fixing of the sign 2. The protective sleeve 305, located below the inner groove 301, protects the locking bolt 302 from damage during use.
[0038] Removal of signboard 2:
[0039] Insert a screwdriver into the rotating groove 3024 on the upper part of the locking cap 3021 and apply downward pressure to move the locking cap 3021 down, causing the locking rod 3023 to move out of the locking groove 104 and rotate in the rotating groove 103 to a position aligned with the slide rail 102.
[0040] Simply slide sign 2 out from slide rail 102 to easily remove sign 2 for replacement or maintenance.
