Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of electrical connectors, specifically an electrical connector with an anti-detachment structure. Background Technology

[0002] Electrical connectors are key components in electronic devices and electrical systems, used to achieve reliable connections between circuits and transmit power, signals, or data. Their development is driven by advancements in materials science, mechanical engineering, and electronic technology, and will continue to evolve towards higher speeds, higher density, and higher reliability to meet the needs of emerging industries such as 5G, AI, and new energy.

[0003] Traditional electrical connectors often lack anti-disconnection mechanisms, which can cause them to loosen or even detach during use due to mechanical vibration and impact, human pulling and misinsertion, or environmental interference. This can lead to poor contact causing overheating, accidental circuit disconnection causing signal loss, and plug detachment causing poor sealing and reduced plug life. Utility Model Content

[0004] To overcome the shortcomings of existing technologies, electrical connectors can become loose or even detach during use due to factors such as mechanical vibration and impact, human pulling and misinsertion, or environmental interference. This can lead to problems such as poor contact causing overheating, accidental circuit disconnection causing signal loss, and plug detachment causing poor sealing and reduced plug life. This utility model proposes an electrical connector with an anti-detachment structure.

[0005] The technical solution adopted by this utility model to solve its technical problem is: an electrical connector with an anti-disconnection structure, including a plug, a first base fixedly connected to the surface of the plug, a socket slidably connected to the surface of the plug, a second base fixedly connected to the surface of the socket, and an anti-disconnection mechanism provided on one side of the socket;

[0006] The anti-dislodgement mechanism includes a first groove, which is located on one side of the plug. A locking block is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the first groove. A second groove is provided on the inner wall of the socket. A spring is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the second groove. A protrusion is fixedly connected to one end of the spring. One side of the protrusion engages with one side of the locking block.

[0007] Preferably, a connecting rod is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the protrusion, the surface of the connecting rod is slidably connected to the inner cavity of the socket, and a handle is fixedly connected to one end of the connecting rod.

[0008] Preferably, an electromagnetic post is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the plug, and an electromagnetic coil is sleeved on the surface of the electromagnetic post, with the surface of the electromagnetic coil disposed in the inner cavity of the plug.

[0009] Preferably, a magnet is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the socket, and the magnet is magnetically connected to the electromagnetic post.

[0010] Preferably, a connecting groove is provided on one side of the socket, and a connecting post is fixedly connected to the output end of the plug, with the surface of the connecting post slidably connected to the inner wall of the connecting groove.

[0011] Preferably, a guide cylinder is fixedly connected to one side of the second base, and a guide rod is fixedly connected to one side of the first base, with the surface of the guide rod slidably connected to the inner cavity of the guide cylinder.

[0012] Preferably, an elastic sealing block is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the second groove, and one side of the elastic sealing block is in contact with one side of the protrusion.

[0013] The advantages of this utility model are:

[0014] This invention employs an anti-disengagement mechanism. When the plug is inserted into the inner cavity of the socket, the protrusion in the second groove moves with the plug until it contacts the locking block in the first groove. The inclined surface of the protrusion fits against the inclined surface of the locking block, and the inclined surface of the locking block is pushed by the protrusion. Since the locking block is fixed, its reaction force pushes the protrusion to move vertically while moving axially, causing the protrusion to slide on the inclined surface of the locking block and compress the spring. As the protrusion no longer fits against the locking block, the spring releases its elastic potential energy, causing the protrusion to pop out and lock against one side of the locking block, thus achieving the effect of preventing disengagement. This solves the problems of loosening or even disengagement of electrical connectors during use due to mechanical vibration and impact, human pulling and mis-insertion or environmental interference, resulting in poor contact causing overheating, accidental circuit disconnection causing signal loss, and plug detachment causing poor sealing and reduced plug life.

Detailed Implementation

[0022] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present utility model.

[0023] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figures 1-5 This application will be described in further detail.

[0024] This application discloses an electrical connector with an anti-disconnection structure. (Refer to...) Figures 1 to 4 An electrical connector with an anti-disengagement structure includes a plug 1, a first base 2 fixedly connected to the surface of the plug 1, a socket 3 slidably connected to the surface of the plug 1, a second base 4 fixedly connected to the surface of the socket 3, and an anti-disengagement mechanism 5 provided on one side of the socket 3.

[0025] The anti-disconnection mechanism 5 includes a first groove 501, which is located on one side of the plug 1. A locking block 502 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the first groove 501. A second groove 503 is located on the inner wall of the socket 3. A spring 504 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the second groove 503. A protrusion 505 is fixedly connected to one end of the spring 504. One side of the protrusion 505 engages with one side of the locking block 502. By setting the anti-disconnection mechanism 5, when the plug 1 is inserted into the inner cavity of the socket 3, the protrusion 505 in the second groove 503 moves with the plug. 1. Move until it contacts the locking block 502 in the first groove 501. The inclined surface of the protrusion 505 fits against the inclined surface of the locking block 502. The inclined surface of the locking block 502 is pushed by the protrusion 505. Since the locking block 502 is fixed, its reaction force pushes the protrusion 505 to move vertically while moving axially, so that the protrusion 505 slides on the inclined surface of the locking block 502 and compresses the spring 504. As the protrusion 505 is no longer in contact with the locking block 502, the spring 504 releases its elastic potential energy, so that the protrusion 505 pops out and locks against one side of the locking block 502.

[0026] Reference Figures 2 to 4A connecting rod 6 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the protrusion 505. The surface of the connecting rod 6 is slidably connected to the inner cavity of the socket 3. A handle 7 is fixedly connected to one end of the connecting rod 6. By setting the connecting rod 6 and the handle 7, when the plug 1 and the socket 3 need to be actively disengaged, the connecting rod 6 is extended outward from the socket 3 by pulling the handle 7. The connecting rod 6 moves the protrusion 505 so that the protrusion 505 is no longer engaged with the locking block 502. Then, the electromagnetic coil 9 is turned off and the plug 1 and the socket 3 are pulled respectively to pull the protrusion 505 out of the first groove 501, thus completing the active disengagement. The connecting rod 6 can also guide the movement of the protrusion 505 and improve the stability of the extension and retraction of the spring 504.

[0027] Reference Figure 4 An electromagnetic post 8 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the plug 1. An electromagnetic coil 9 is sleeved on the surface of the electromagnetic post 8. The surface of the electromagnetic coil 9 is located in the inner cavity of the plug 1. By setting the electromagnetic coil 9 and the electromagnetic post 8, the electromagnetic coil 9 starts to work. Utilizing the electromagnetic effect, the electromagnetic coil 9 sleeved on the surface of the electromagnetic post 8 causes the electromagnetic post 8 to generate magnetism.

[0028] Reference Figure 4 and Figure 5 A magnet 10 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the socket 3. The magnet 10 is magnetically connected to the electromagnetic post 8. By setting the magnet 10, when the electromagnetic coil 9 makes the electromagnetic post 8 magnetic, the magnet 10 will attract the electromagnetic post 8 to contact the magnet 10, thereby the electromagnetic post 8 will drive the plug 1 to be inserted into the socket 3, and after insertion, it will continue to attract to achieve the effect of positioning and fastening.

[0029] Reference Figure 5 A connecting groove 11 is provided on one side of the socket 3. A connecting post 12 is fixedly connected to the output end of the plug 1. The surface of the connecting post 12 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the connecting groove 11. By setting the connecting groove 11, the connecting post 12 of the plug 1 can be stably inserted into the connecting groove 11 and connected to the socket 3, which can improve the stability of the structure.

[0030] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 A guide cylinder 13 is fixedly connected to one side of the second base 4, and a guide rod 14 is fixedly connected to one side of the first base 2. The surface of the guide rod 14 is slidably connected to the inner cavity of the guide cylinder 13. By setting the guide rod 14 and the guide cylinder 13, since different connecting columns 12 have different functions, the connecting column 12 must be inserted into the corresponding connecting groove 11. The positioning of the guide rod 14 and the guide cylinder 13 is used to avoid inserting into the wrong connecting groove 11.

[0031] Reference Figure 4An elastic sealing block 15 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the second groove 503. One side of the elastic sealing block 15 fits against one side of the protrusion 505. By setting the elastic sealing block 15, foreign objects can be prevented from entering the device from the first groove 501 and the second groove 503 when the plug 1 and the socket 3 are connected.

[0032] Working principle: When plug 1 is inserted into the inner cavity of socket 3, protrusion 505 in the second groove 503 moves with plug 1 until it contacts the locking block 502 in the first groove 501. The inclined surface of protrusion 505 fits against the inclined surface of locking block 502. The inclined surface of locking block 502 is pushed by protrusion 505. Since locking block 502 is fixed, its reaction force pushes protrusion 505 to move vertically while moving axially, causing protrusion 505 to slide on the inclined surface of locking block 502 and compress spring 504. As protrusion 505 is no longer in contact with locking block 502, spring 504 releases elastic potential energy, causing protrusion 505 to pop out and lock onto one side of locking block 502. When the electromagnetic coil 9 is activated, it utilizes the electromagnetic effect to magnetize the electromagnetic post 8 by applying the electromagnetic coil 9 to the surface of the electromagnetic post 8. The magnet 10 attracts the electromagnetic post 8 to contact the magnet 10, thereby causing the electromagnetic post 8 to drive the plug 1 to insert into the socket 3. After insertion, the electromagnetic post 8 continues to attract and achieve a positioning and fastening effect. When the plug 1 and the socket 3 need to be separated, the connecting rod 6 is extended out of the socket 3 by pulling the handle 7. The connecting rod 6 moves the protrusion 505 so that the protrusion 505 is no longer locked to the locking block 502. After that, the electromagnetic coil 9 is turned off, and the plug 1 and the socket 3 are pulled separately to pull the protrusion 505 out of the first groove 501, thus completing the active separation.

[0033] The foregoing has shown and described the basic principles, main features, and advantages of this utility model. Those skilled in the art should understand that this utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. The embodiments and descriptions in the specification are merely illustrative of the principles of this utility model. Various changes and modifications can be made to this utility model without departing from its spirit and scope, and all such changes and modifications fall within the scope of the claimed utility model.
