The male connector 1 includes a base 11 and a male connector 12 connected to the base 11. The female connector 2 includes a female connector 21. The male connector 12 has a first mounting groove 121 and a first insertion hole 122 on the side opposite to the base 11. The first mounting groove 121 has a second pin 15 and a plurality of first pins 13 connected to the male connector 12. The female connector 21 has a second mounting groove 211. The second mounting groove 211 has a connecting post 22 and a third pin 23 connected to the female connector 21. The connecting post 22 has a second insertion hole 222 and a plurality of third insertion holes 221. The first pins 13 are arranged one-to-one with the third insertion holes 221. When the male connector 1 is connected to the female connector 2, the first pin 13 is inserted into the third insertion hole 221, the second pin 15 is inserted into the second insertion hole 222, the third pin 23 is inserted into the first insertion hole 122, the male connector 12 is placed in the second mounting slot 211, and the base 11 abuts against the female connector 21, so that the male connector 1 and the female connector 2 can be quickly and accurately connected, and the dustproof performance requirements of the product can be met.

[0040] In some embodiments, the shape of the orthographic projection of the first mounting groove 121 along the first direction matches the shape of the orthographic projection of the connecting post 22. By setting the shape of the orthographic projection of the first mounting groove 121 along the first direction to match the shape of the orthographic projection of the connecting post 22 along the first direction, on the one hand, it is convenient and quick to plug the male connector 1 and the female connector 2 together; on the other hand, it improves the reliability of the connection between the male connector 1 and the female connector 2.

[0041] For example, when the orthographic projection shape of the first mounting groove 121 along the first direction X is circular, the orthographic projection shape of the connecting post 22 is also circular. When the orthographic projection shape of the first mounting groove 121 along the first direction X is square, the orthographic projection shape of the connecting post 22 is also square.

[0042] In some embodiments, multiple first mounting slots 121 are provided, and each first pin 13 is placed in a different first mounting slot 121. The first mounting slot 121 and the first pin 13 placed therein are coaxially arranged. By providing multiple first mounting slots 121, placing each first pin 13 in a different first mounting slot 121, and coaxially arranging the first mounting slots 121 and the first pin 13, it is easier and faster to connect the male connector 1 and the female connector 2 together. On the other hand, it improves the reliability of the connection between the male connector 1 and the female connector 2.

[0043] In some embodiments, the size of the second pin 15 is the same as the size of the third pin 23. By setting the size of the second pin 15 to be the same as the size of the third pin 23, the size of the first insertion hole 122 and the second insertion hole 222 can also be set to be the same, which not only facilitates the processing of the male connector 1 and the female connector 2, but also facilitates the insertion of the male connector 1 and the female connector 2.

[0044] In some embodiments, the orthographic projection of the first pin 13 along the first direction X matches the orthographic projection of the third socket 221. By matching the shape of the orthographic projection of the first pin 13 along the first direction with the shape of the orthographic projection of the third socket 221 along the first direction, it is more convenient and faster to connect the male connector 1 and the female connector 2 together; on the other hand, it improves the reliability of the connection between the male connector 1 and the female connector 2.

[0045] For example, when the orthographic projection of the first pin 13 along the first direction X is circular, the orthographic projection of the third socket 221 is also circular. When the orthographic projection of the first pin 13 along the first direction is square, the orthographic projection of the third socket 221 is also square.

[0046] In some embodiments, an elastic element is provided on the inner wall of the third insertion hole 221. When the first pin 13 is placed in the third insertion hole 221, the first pin 13 can compress the elastic element. By providing an elastic element on the inner wall of the third insertion hole 221, when the first pin 13 is inserted into the third insertion hole 221, the first pin 13 can compress the elastic element, and the elastic element deforms to generate elastic force, so that the first pin 13 can stay firmly in the third insertion hole 221, thereby improving the reliability of the connection between the male connector 1 and the female connector 2.

[0047] In some embodiments, the female end cap 21 is provided with a first connection hole 2131, which is used to connect an external device. By providing the first connection hole 2131 on the female end cap 21, it is convenient to connect the female end cap 21 to the external device through the first connection hole 2131.

[0048] In some embodiments, the female end-cap 21 includes a female end-cap body 212 and a connecting portion 213. The connecting portion 213 is connected to opposite ends of the female end-cap body 212, and a first connecting hole 2131 is provided on the connecting portion 213. By providing the female end-cap 21 with a female end-cap body 212 and a connecting portion 213, it is convenient to provide the first connecting hole 2131, and it is also convenient for the female end-cap 21 to be connected to an external device through the first connecting hole 2131.

[0049] Of course, connecting the connecting part 213 to the opposite ends of the female end seat body 212 is only one optional embodiment. There may be only one connecting part 213, which is bent and connected to the female end seat body 212.

[0050] In some embodiments, the base 11 is further provided with a second connection hole 111, and the male connector 1 can be connected to the female connector 2 by fasteners passing through the second connection hole 111 and the first connection hole 2131.

[0051] Furthermore, the fasteners can be bolts and nuts.

[0052] In some embodiments, a first sealing groove is provided on the side of the base 11 connected to the male terminal 12, the first sealing groove surrounds the male terminal 12, and a first sealing element is provided within the first sealing groove. By providing a first sealing groove on the side of the base 11 connected to the male terminal 12, surrounding the male terminal 12 with the first sealing groove, and providing a first sealing element within the first sealing groove, the sealing performance of the connector assembly is improved, and the waterproof rating of the connector assembly is enhanced.

[0053] Furthermore, the first seal can be made of rubber.

[0054] In some embodiments, a second sealing groove is provided on the side of the female connector body 212 near the male connector 1, and a second sealing element is provided in the second sealing groove. By providing a second sealing groove on the side of the female connector body 212 near the male connector 1 and providing a second sealing element in the second sealing groove, the sealing performance of the connector assembly is improved, and the waterproof rating of the connector assembly is improved.

[0055] Furthermore, the second seal can be made of rubber.

[0056] In some embodiments, the male connector 1 is provided with a handle 14. By providing a handle 14 on the male connector 1, it is convenient to pick up and put down the male connector 1.

[0057] Furthermore, the handle 14 is configured as a U-shape, and both ends of the handle 14 are respectively connected to the male connector 1.

[0058] The male connector also includes a first data line, which is connected to the base and / or the male connector, and is electrically connected to the first circuit board.
