Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of electronic connection wires, specifically an electronic connection wire with a waterproof connector. Background Technology
[0002] In the field of modern electronic equipment, electronic connection cables, as key components for realizing electrical connections and signal transmission between devices, are widely used in various electronic products, such as smartphones, tablets, computer mainframes and peripherals, home appliances, and industrial automation equipment. With the continuous expansion of electronic device functions and the increasing complexity of application scenarios, the performance requirements for electronic connection cables are also becoming higher, among which waterproof performance has become an important consideration.
[0003] In special usage scenarios such as humid environments, outdoor operations, and underwater equipment, traditional electronic connectors lack effective waterproofing measures, making the connection between the connector and the cable susceptible to moisture intrusion. Once moisture enters the connection area, it can cause a series of problems: Short circuit risk: As a conductor, moisture can cause short circuits between different lines at the connection point, damaging the internal circuitry of electronic equipment, affecting normal operation, and even causing safety accidents. Corrosion risk: When moisture comes into contact with the metal components of the connection point, it accelerates the oxidation and corrosion process of the metal, reducing the conductivity of the connection point, leading to unstable signal transmission and increasing the equipment failure rate. Shortened lifespan: Long-term exposure to humid environments will gradually degrade the overall performance of traditional electronic connectors, significantly shortening their lifespan and increasing equipment maintenance costs and replacement frequency.
[0004] Currently, some electronic connectors on the market offer waterproof functionality, but most employ traditional waterproofing methods such as sealing rings and waterproof coatings. These methods have certain limitations: Sealing rings: While they can block moisture to some extent, they are prone to aging and deformation over long-term use, leading to a decline in sealing performance and an inability to provide consistently reliable waterproof protection. Waterproof coatings: The waterproofing effect of a coating is affected by various factors such as coating thickness, uniformity, and adhesion, and is easily damaged by friction and scratches during use, thus losing its waterproofing function. Furthermore, the application process for waterproof coatings is relatively complex, requiring a high level of technical skill from operators, making it difficult to guarantee consistent waterproofing quality across all connectors. Utility Model Content
[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide an electronic connector with a waterproof function at the joint, so as to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: an electronic connector with a waterproof function at the joint, comprising a connector base and a wire body connected to the connector base. The connector base has a hot melt adhesive wrapping component on the side near the wire body, used to wrap the connection between the connector base and the wire body after hot melting. Preferably, a wire groove is formed on one side of the connector base, with each wire groove corresponding to a wire body. Multiple wire grooves are provided, and the multiple wire grooves are evenly spaced and of equal size, arranged along the long side of the connector base.
[0007] Preferably, the connector has a notch at one end near the line body. The notch is an annular groove, and one end of the hot melt adhesive-wrapped component is fitted and fixed in the notch.
[0008] Preferably, the hot melt adhesive wrapping assembly includes a hot melt adhesive square tube, a hot melt adhesive connecting ring, and a hot melt adhesive-coated wire tube. One end of the hot melt adhesive square tube is fitted and fixed in a notch, the hot melt adhesive connecting ring is integrally formed in the notch at the other end of the hot melt adhesive square tube, and the hot melt adhesive-coated wire tube is integrally formed on the surface of the hot melt adhesive connecting ring. Preferably, the surface of the hot melt adhesive connecting ring has multiple perforations, each corresponding to a wire groove. The hot melt adhesive-coated wire tube corresponds to each perforation, and the hot melt adhesive-coated wire tube is fitted onto the wire body of the wire.
[0009] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0010] This invention proposes an electronic connector cable with a waterproof joint. The cable uses hot melt adhesive to wrap the components. After the cable is installed, a flame is used to heat and shrink the hot melt adhesive square tube, hot melt adhesive connecting ring, and hot melt adhesive-wrapped tubing, tightly wrapping the connection between the cable and the connector. This comprehensive wrapping method effectively prevents moisture from penetrating the connection from all directions, completely sealing the gap between the connector and the cable, forming a reliable waterproof barrier, and significantly improving the waterproof capability of the electronic connector cable in humid environments.

[0017] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clear and complete, the embodiments of this utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only some, not all, embodiments of this utility model, and are merely used to explain the embodiments of this utility model. They are not intended to limit the embodiments of this utility model. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this utility model.
[0018] Please see Figures 1-5 This utility model provides a technical solution: an electronic connector with a waterproof function at the joint, including a connector 1 and a wire 2 connected to the connector 1. A groove 3 is provided on one side of the connector 1, with each groove 3 corresponding to a wire 2. Multiple grooves 3 are provided, evenly spaced and of equal size, arranged along the long side of the connector 1. A hot melt adhesive wrapping component is provided on the side of the connector 1 near the wire 2, used to wrap the connection between the connector 1 and the wire 2 after hot melting. A notch 4 is provided at one end of the connector 1 near the wire 2, the notch 4 being an annular groove. One end of the hot melt adhesive wrapping component is fitted and fixed in the notch 4. The hot melt adhesive wrapping component is pre-fitted and fixed in the notch 4. When installing the wire 2, one end of the wire 2 passes through the hot melt adhesive wrapping component and is inserted into the groove 3.
[0019] The hot melt adhesive wrapping assembly includes a hot melt adhesive square tube 5, a hot melt adhesive connecting ring 6, and a hot melt adhesive wire-wrapped tube 7. One end of the hot melt adhesive square tube 5 is fitted and fixed in the notch 4. The hot melt adhesive connecting ring 6 is integrally formed in the notch at the other end of the hot melt adhesive square tube 5. The hot melt adhesive wire-wrapped tube 7 is integrally formed on the surface of the hot melt adhesive connecting ring 6. The surface of the hot melt adhesive connecting ring 6 has multiple through holes, and each through hole corresponds to a wire groove 3. The hot melt adhesive wire-wrapped tube 7 corresponds to each through hole, and the hot melt adhesive wire-wrapped tube 7 is fitted onto the wire body 2. After the cable is installed, the hot melt adhesive square tube 5, hot melt adhesive connecting ring 6, and hot melt adhesive wrapped tube 7 are heated with a flame. The hot melt adhesive square tube 5, hot melt adhesive connecting ring 6, and hot melt adhesive wrapped tube 7 shrink after being heated and tightly wrap the cable 2. At this time, the cable groove 3 is sealed by the shrunken hot melt adhesive square tube 5, hot melt adhesive connecting ring 6, and hot melt adhesive wrapped tube 7, which improves the waterproof effect after the connector 1 and the cable 2 are connected.
[0020] Detailed instructions for using electronic connection cables with waterproof connectors:
[0021] Confirm component integrity: Inspect the entire electronic connection cable to ensure that connector 1, cable body 2, and hot melt adhesive wrapped components (hot melt adhesive square tube 5, hot melt adhesive connecting ring 6, hot melt adhesive wrapped cable tube 7) are all intact and undamaged, with no missing or damaged parts.
[0022] Prepare tools: Prepare a flame spray tool (such as a small spray gun) for heating the hot melt adhesive-wrapped components, and ensure that the tool can ignite normally and adjust the flame size. At the same time, prepare necessary safety protective equipment, such as heat-resistant gloves and goggles, to ensure safe operation.
[0023] Install the hot melt adhesive wrapping component: Pre-install one end of the hot melt adhesive wrapping component onto the notch 4 of the connector 1. Specifically, align the open end of the hot melt adhesive square tube 5 with the notch 4 on the connector 1, press firmly or use a suitable fixing method (such as a snap-fit, if the hot melt adhesive square tube 5 and the notch 4 are designed with a corresponding fixing structure) to ensure that the hot melt adhesive square tube 5 is tightly and securely installed in the notch 4, ensuring that it will not easily fall off during subsequent operations.
[0024] Inserting the wire: Pass one end of wire 2 through the holes on the hot melt adhesive-coated tube 7 and the hot melt adhesive connecting ring 6 in sequence, and finally insert it into the corresponding wire groove 3 on the connector 1. During the insertion process, pay attention to the one-to-one correspondence between wire 2 and wire groove 3 to avoid threading wire 2 into the wrong wire groove 3. At the same time, ensure that wire 2 passes smoothly through the hot melt adhesive-coated tube 7 and the holes without any jamming or damage to the hot melt adhesive-coated components.
[0025] Ignition and Flame Adjustment: After donning heat-resistant gloves and goggles, turn on the ignition switch of the flamethrower to ignite the flame. Adjust the flame size to an appropriate level according to the material and characteristics of the hot melt adhesive-coated components. Generally, the flame should be moderate, ensuring that the hot melt adhesive-coated components are heated and melted evenly without damaging line 2 or connector 1 due to an excessively large flame.
[0026] Uniform Heating: Using a handheld flamethrower, aim the flame at the hot melt adhesive square tube 5, the hot melt adhesive connecting ring 6, and the hot melt adhesive-wrapped tubing 7 to heat them. During heating, move the flame slowly across the surface of the hot melt adhesive-wrapped components to ensure even heating of all parts. Maintain a proper distance from the hot melt adhesive-wrapped components during heating to avoid direct flame contact that could cause localized overheating.
[0027] Observe the shrinkage: As heating progresses, closely observe the changes in the hot melt adhesive square tube 5, the hot melt adhesive connecting ring 6, and the hot melt adhesive-wrapped wire tube 7. When the hot melt adhesive-wrapped assembly begins to gradually shrink, continue heating until the hot melt adhesive-wrapped assembly has completely shrunk and tightly wrapped around the wire body 2. At this point, the wire groove 3 will be sealed by the shrunk hot melt adhesive square tube 5, the hot melt adhesive connecting ring 6, and the hot melt adhesive-wrapped wire tube 7, forming a good sealing effect.
[0028] Stop heating and allow to cool: Once the hot melt adhesive-wrapped assembly has shrunk to its final position, immediately turn off the ignition switch of the flame jet tool to stop heating. Allow connector 1 and cable 2 to cool naturally for a period of time until the hot melt adhesive-wrapped assembly is fully cured, ensuring its waterproof performance is stable and reliable.
