[0027] Figs. 1-3 It is the structural schematic diagram of the connector of the utility model, please refer to Figs. 1-3 For the detailed introduction of this kind of connector.
[0028] Example 1
[0029] Reference Figs. 1-3 The utility model discloses a kind of connectors, its main part includes connector body 100 and protection mechanism 200.
[0030] Connector body 100 is used to be used in electronic device;
[0031] The protection mechanism 200 is used to automatically protect the connecting end of the connector body 100 when the connector body 100 is not in use. The protection mechanism 200 is installed on the connector body 100 and corresponds to the connecting end of the connector body 100. The protection mechanism 200 has a first state of unfolding when the connector body 100 is in use and a second state of automatically closing to protect the connecting end of the connector body 100 when the connector body 100 is not in use. Thus, when the connector body 100 is not in use, the protection mechanism 200 is in the second state to protect the connecting end of the connector body 100. When the connector body 100 is in use, the protection mechanism 200 is in the unfolded first state, thus not affecting the connection and use of the connector body 100.
[0032] The connector body 100 includes a busbar connecting end 110 having a plug-in slot 110a on one side and a sealing end 120 having a plug-in block 120a on one side. The plug-in block 120a matches the plug-in slot 110a. The plug-in block 120a cooperates with the plug-in slot 110a to seal the busbar connecting end 110. Thus, after the sealing end 120 is plugged into the busbar connecting end 110, the connection between the busbar connecting end 110 and the sealing end 120 is in a high-pressure environment, thus preventing water from seeping into the busbar connecting end 110 from the connecting end.
[0033] The busbar connecting end 110 has limit sliding grooves 110b at both ends of the side away from the plug-in slot 110a. The limit sliding grooves 110b facilitate the connection of the first protection plate 210 and the second protection plate 220.
[0034] The protection mechanism 200 includes a first protection plate 210 extending into the limit sliding grooves 110b and a second protection plate 220 extending into the limit sliding grooves 110b above the first protection plate 210. The top of the first protection plate 210 and the bottom of the second protection plate 220 have magnetic sheets with opposite polarities. The first protection plate 210 and the second protection plate 220 cooperate with each other to protect the connecting end of the busbar connecting end 110 when they move along the limit sliding grooves 110b to close. When they move away from each other, the busbar connecting end 110 is convenient for connection and use. The two magnetic sheets with opposite polarities automatically cause the first protection plate 210 and the second protection plate 220 to close after the busbar connecting end 110 is not in use and the pin is pulled out.
[0035] In the embodiment, the following procedure is specifically used: when the connector body 100 is not used, the connecting end of the connector body 100 is protected by the protection mechanism 200 in the closed second state, preventing impurities such as dust from entering the inside of the connecting end of the connector body 100, and avoiding the connecting end of the connector body 100 from being damaged by extrusion; when the connector body 100 is used, the protection mechanism 200 is in the unfolded first state, thereby facilitating the connection and use of the connector body 100; after the use of the connector body 100 is completed, the protection mechanism 200 automatically closes from the first state to the second state to continue protecting the connecting end of the connector body 100.
[0036] Embodiment 2
[0037] On the basis of Embodiment 1, in the embodiment, the outer side wall of the plug-in block 120a has an annular sealing strip 120a-1 for increasing the air tightness between the plug-in block 120a and the plug-in groove 110a, so that after the sealing end 120 is plugged into the busbar connecting end 110, the high pressure in the connecting space between the two remains stable.
[0038] Embodiment 3
[0039] On the basis of Embodiment 2, the top of the first protection plate 210 has a clamping groove 210a for clamping the clamping protrusion 220a;
[0040] The bottom of the second protection plate 220 has a clamping protrusion 220a corresponding to the clamping groove 210a, for clamping into the clamping groove 210a, so that after the first protection plate 210 and the second protection plate 220 are closed to each other, the sealing property of the connection between the two is increased, thereby avoiding the penetration of external air or moisture through the gap between the first protection plate 210 and the second protection plate 220, and the magnetic sheets are respectively located at the inner wall bottom of the clamping groove 210a and the bottom of the clamping protrusion 220a.
[0041] In the embodiment, the outer side walls of the first protection plate 210 and the second protection plate 220 are both provided with anti-skid protrusions, for facilitating the pushing of the first protection plate 210 and the second protection plate 220 away from each other by the fingers of the staff when the connector body 100 is used, thereby unfolding the protection mechanism 200.
[0042] Although the utility model has been described above with reference to the embodiments, various modifications can be made thereto, and equivalent replacements can be made to the components thereof, without departing from the scope of the utility model. In particular, as long as there is no structural conflict, each feature in the embodiments disclosed by the utility model can be combined with each other in any manner, and the combinations are not exhaustively described in the specification merely for the purpose of omitting the length and saving the resources. Therefore, the utility model is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed herein, but includes all technical solutions falling within the scope of the claims.
