[0020] Example: A dustproof industrial connector, such as Figures 1-5 As shown, the assembly includes an industrial connector 1, a limiting rod 2, a limiting buckle 3, a torsion spring 4, a rotating rod 5, a cover plate 6, and a sealing ring 7. Limiting rods 2 are welded to both the front and rear sides of the right end of the industrial connector 1. A limiting buckle 3 is rotatably connected between the two limiting rods 2. Torsion springs 4 are connected between the front and rear sides of the industrial connector 1 and the limiting buckle 3. A rotating rod 5 is welded between the front and rear sides of the upper end of the limiting buckle 3. A cover plate 6 is rotatably connected to the rotating rod 5. The cover plate 6 is slidably connected to the industrial connector 1. The torsion spring 4 provides a torque to the limiting buckle 3, keeping the cover plate 6 in contact with the industrial connector 1. A sealing ring 7 is adhered to the right side of the industrial connector 1.

[0021] like Figures 1-5 As shown, it also includes an industrial plug 8, a second limiting rod 9, a second limiting buckle 10, and a second cover plate 11. The right end of the industrial connector 1 is electrically connected to the industrial plug 8. The sealing ring 7 ensures that the industrial connector 1 and the industrial plug 8 fit together precisely, further enhancing the sealing effect and effectively preventing dust, moisture, etc. from entering the connection part, ensuring the stability and reliability of the internal electrical connection between the industrial connector 1 and the industrial plug 8. The left end of the industrial plug 8 has two limiting rods 9 welded on both the front and rear sides. The two limiting rods 9 are rotatably connected to the second limiting buckle 10. A torsion spring 4 is also connected between the limiting rods and the second limiting buckle 10. The bottom right end of the second limiting buckle 10 is rotatably connected to the second cover plate 11. The second cover plate 11 is slidably connected to the industrial plug 8. The torsion spring 4 provides a torque for the second limiting buckle 9 to keep the second cover plate 11 in contact with the industrial plug 8.

[0022] like Figure 3 and Figure 5As shown, it also includes guide rods 12, guide blocks 13, and sealing strips 14. Guide rods 12 are welded to both the front and rear sides of the right end of the industrial connector 1, and guide blocks 13 are welded to both the front and rear sides of the left end of the industrial plug 8. The guide rods 12 and guide blocks 13 are slidably connected to ensure that the industrial plug 8 and the industrial connector 1 can be accurately connected, avoiding connection failure or damage to the internal connection structure due to connection deviation. Sealing strips 14 are glued to the bottom of cover plate 1 6 and cover plate 2 11. Sealing strips 14 are also glued to the bottom of cover plate 2 11. The sealing strips 14 make cover plate 1 6 and cover plate 2 11 fit tightly against the industrial connector 1 and the industrial plug 8, preventing dust, debris, etc. from entering the interior of the industrial connector 1 and the industrial plug 8, thus playing a dustproof role.

[0023] like Figure 1 As shown, it also includes a first connecting cover 15, a second connecting cover 16, a screw 17, and a nut 18. The first connecting cover 15 is welded to the left end of the industrial connector 1, and the second connecting cover 16 is welded to the right end of the industrial plug 8. The first connecting cover 15 and the second connecting cover 16 are slidably connected to each other on the front and rear sides by screws 17. Nuts 18 are threaded onto each screw 17. Tightening the nuts 18 will make the first connecting cover 15 and the second connecting cover 16 tightly connected, which will further play a role in dust prevention and protection, and prevent the connection from becoming loose due to external force pulling or other reasons during use.

[0024] When the industrial connector 1 is not connected to the industrial plug 8, the cover plate 6 and the cover plate 11 are closed under the action of the torsion spring 4. The torsion spring 4 provides a torque for the limit buckle 3 and the limit buckle 10 to keep the cover plate 6 and the cover plate 11 in contact with the industrial connector 1 and the industrial plug 8. The sealing strip 14 makes the cover plate 6 and the cover plate 11 fit tightly against the industrial connector 1 and the industrial plug 8, preventing dust, debris and other objects from entering the interior of the industrial connector 1 and the industrial plug 8, thus playing a dustproof role.

[0025] When connecting the industrial plug 8 to the industrial connector 1, the cover plate 16 overcomes the torque of the torsion spring 4 and rotates upward around the rotating rod 5 to open the industrial connector 1, thus exposing the connection port of the industrial connector 1. Pass the power cord through the bottom of the industrial connector 1, unscrew the terminals, and connect the live, neutral, and ground wires according to the markings. Tighten the screws and check that the wiring is secure. Then, the cover plate 21 overcomes the torque of the torsion spring 4 and rotates around the limit buckle 210 to open the industrial plug 8, thus exposing the connection port of the industrial plug 8. Insert the connected industrial plug 8 into the industrial connector 1 at the power source. At this time, the guide rod 12 inserts into the guide block 13 to ensure accurate mating between the industrial plug 8 and the industrial connector 1, avoiding connection failure or damage to the internal connection structure due to mating deviation. This completes the power connection, realizing functions such as power transmission and signal transmission. The sealing ring 7 ensures a precise fit between the industrial connector 1 and the industrial plug 8, further enhancing... The sealing effect effectively prevents dust and moisture from entering the connection parts, ensuring the stability and reliability of the internal electrical connection between the industrial connector 1 and the industrial plug 8. The screw 17 is passed through the corresponding holes on the front and rear sides of the first connecting cover 15 and the second connecting cover 16, and the nut 18 is tightened on the screw 17, making the first connecting cover 15 and the second connecting cover 16 tightly connected. This further serves as dustproof and protective, preventing the connection from loosening due to external pulling during use. When it is necessary to disconnect the industrial plug 8 from the industrial connector 1, the nut 18 on the screw 17 is loosened, and the screw 17 is pulled out from the first connecting cover 15 and the second connecting cover 16. The industrial plug 8 is then slowly pulled out of the industrial connector 1. During the pulling process, the cover plate 1 6 and the cover plate 2 11 gradually return to their closed state under the action of the torsion spring 4, again protecting the industrial connector 1 and the industrial plug 8 from dust. This completes the use of the device.
