Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of connectors, and more particularly to a lightweight nanomaterial cabinet quick connector. Background Technology
[0002] Currently, with reduced rainfall and persistent high temperatures, hydropower generation is facing a supply shortage. When power outages occur in some areas, emergency generators are needed to temporarily generate electricity to supply power to the ring mains units of the surrounding power grid, thereby distributing power to nearby residential areas. In existing technologies, to meet the emergency power needs of outdoor operations and to facilitate the lightweight design and easy cleaning and maintenance of the ring mains units, the outer surface of the ring mains units is coated with a layer of polymer resin-based nanomaterials.
[0003] Existing nanomaterial ring main units are equipped with integrated node switches and power input interfaces. When the power input interface is not in use, it needs to be sealed with a plug to ensure dust and moisture protection. However, traditional plugs use a simple plug-in fixing method, and their mechanical stability depends heavily on the friction of the contact surface. They are prone to loosening under equipment vibration or temperature deformation conditions, causing the power input interface to fail to seal and leading to corrosion problems. Utility Model Content

[0029] The following combination Figures 1-8 This application will be described in further detail below.
[0030] Example:
[0031] This application discloses a lightweight nanomaterial cabinet quick connector. (See also...) Figures 1-3 A lightweight quick connector for a nanomaterial cabinet includes a connector sleeve 1, a fixing sleeve 2, and a sealing plug 3. The connector sleeve 1 is fixed in the solid structure of the nanomaterial cabinet. The fixing sleeve 2 is located outside the connector sleeve 1, and an insertion space 11 is formed between the fixing sleeve 2 and the connector sleeve 1. The sealing plug 3 is located at the interface end of the connector sleeve 1, and one end of the sealing plug 3 is embedded in the insertion space 11. To facilitate the smooth insertion of the sealing plug 3, the end of the sealing plug 3 used for insertion into the insertion space 11 is provided with a guide cone surface 31.
[0032] Reference Figures 3-5To reduce the possibility of the plug coming loose when sealing the power interface, the fixing sleeve 2 is provided with a locking mechanism 4 for locking the sealing plug 3. The sealing plug 3 is embedded in the outer side of the insertion space 11 and has a locking ring groove 32. The side wall of the fixing sleeve 2 has a through hole 21 corresponding to the position of the locking ring groove 32. The locking mechanism 4 includes a locking bead 41 and a clamping component 42. The locking bead 41 is movably disposed in the through hole 21, and the clamping component 42 is used to clamp the locking bead 41 against the groove wall of the locking ring groove 32.
[0033] Reference Figures 4-5 The clamping assembly 42 includes a movable sleeve 421 and a clamping ring 422 integrally formed inside the movable sleeve 421. The movable sleeve 421 is disposed on the fixed sleeve 2. The fixed sleeve 2 has a mounting groove 22 on its outer side, and the clamping ring 422 is located in the mounting groove 22. A first elastic member 23 is also installed in the mounting groove 22, and one end of the first elastic member 23 abuts against the side of the mounting groove 22 near the sealing plug 3, and the other end abuts against the side of the clamping ring 422 away from the sealing plug 3. In this embodiment, the first elastic member 23 is a compression spring.
[0034] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 6 A limiting pin 24 is fixed to the outer side of the fixed sleeve 2. A groove 4211 is provided at the end of the movable sleeve 421 away from the sealing plug 3. A receiving groove 4212 is provided on one side of the groove 4211. A latch 43 is slidably disposed in the receiving groove 4212, and the limiting pin 24 is engaged between the latch 43 and the groove wall of the receiving groove 4212. A second elastic element 44 is also installed in the receiving groove 4212, with one end abutting against the bottom wall of the receiving groove 4212 and the other end abutting against the latch 43. In this embodiment, the second elastic element 44 is a compression spring.
[0035] Reference Figures 6-8 To facilitate the retraction of the latch 43 into the receiving groove 4212, a lever 431 is fixed to the portion of the latch 43 located within the receiving groove 4212. A lever 4213 is provided on the movable sleeve 421 along the extending direction of the receiving groove 4212. The lever 4213 communicates with the receiving groove 4212, and the lever 431 extends out of the lever 4213 and can slide within the lever 4213.
[0036] Reference Figures 6-8The latch 43 has a guide slope 432 on the side away from the sealing plug 3. When unlocking the locking mechanism 4, the sliding sleeve is pushed away from the sealing plug 3, and the first elastic element 23 is compressed and stores energy. When the latch 43 abuts against the limiting pin 24, the sliding sleeve is pushed further. Through the setting of the guide slope 432, the limiting pin 24 can squeeze the latch 43, pushing the latch 43 towards the bottom wall of the receiving groove 4212. At the same time, the second elastic element 44 is compressed and stores energy, thus facilitating the latch 43 to pass through the limiting pin 24. After the latch 43 has completely passed through the limiting pin 24, the second elastic element 44 rebounds, driving the latch 43 to reset, and locking the limiting pin 24 between the latch 43 and the groove wall of the slot 4211, thereby limiting the movement of the movable sleeve 421. At this time, the clamping ring 422 is located on the side of the locking bead 41 away from the sealing plug 3. The locking bead 41 can move up and down in the through hole 21, which facilitates the insertion or removal of the sealing plug 3 into the insertion space 11. When the sealing plug 3 is inserted into place, and the locking mechanism 4 needs to lock the sealing plug 3, the paddle 431 can be moved to drive the latch 43 into the receiving groove 4212, releasing the limit pin 24 from limiting the movable sleeve 421. The first elastic element 23 rebounds, driving the movable sleeve 421 to reset. The movable sleeve 421 moves and drives the clamping ring 422 to reset to the outside of the through hole 21, thereby pressing the locking bead 41 against the groove wall of the locking ring groove 32, thereby locking the sealing plug 3 and reducing the possibility of the plug coming loose during sealing.
[0037] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 7 To prevent the movable sleeve 421 from detaching from the fixed sleeve 2 when the first elastic element 23 resets and causes the movable sleeve 421 to slide, an anti-slip edge 25 is integrally formed on the side wall of the fixed sleeve 2 near the sealing plug 3.
[0038] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 3 A flexible connector 5 connects the sealing plug 3 and the fixing sleeve 2. In this embodiment, the flexible connector 5 is a connecting rope, which avoids the risk of losing the sealing plug 3 while ensuring quick assembly and disassembly.
[0039] The implementation principle of a lightweight nanomaterial cabinet quick connector in this application embodiment is as follows: When unlocking the locking mechanism 4, the sliding sleeve is pushed away from the sealing plug 3, and the first elastic element 23 is compressed and stored. When the latch 43 abuts against the limiting pin 24, the sliding sleeve is pushed further. Through the setting of the guide slope 432, the limiting pin 24 can squeeze the latch 43, pushing the latch 43 towards the bottom wall of the receiving groove 4212. At the same time, the second elastic element 44 is compressed and stored, thus facilitating the latch 43 to pass through the limiting pin 24. After the latch 43 has completely passed through the limiting pin 24, the second elastic element 44 rebounds, driving the latch 43 to reset, and locking the limiting pin 24 between the latch 43 and the groove wall of the slot 4211, thereby achieving the limitation of the movable sleeve 421. At this time, the clamping ring 422 is located on the side of the locking bead 41 away from the sealing plug 3. The locking bead 41 can move up and down in the through hole 21, which facilitates the insertion or removal of the sealing plug 3 into the insertion space 11.
[0040] When the sealing plug 3 is inserted into place, and the locking mechanism 4 is needed to lock the sealing plug 3, the paddle 431 can be moved to drive the latch 43 to retract into the receiving groove 4212, releasing the limit pin 24 from limiting the movable sleeve 421. The first elastic element 23 rebounds, driving the movable sleeve 421 to reset. The movable sleeve 421 moves and drives the abutment ring 422 to reset to the outside of the through hole 21, thereby pressing the locking bead 41 against the groove wall of the locking ring groove 32, thereby locking the sealing plug 3 and reducing the possibility of the plug coming loose during sealing.
[0041] This application provides a precise axial positioning reference through the insertion space 11 formed by the fixed sleeve 2 and the connector sleeve 1. Combined with the locking mechanism 4, it forms a multi-dimensional mechanical constraint, eliminating the instability of traditional plug-in plugs that rely solely on friction, and reducing the possibility of the sealing plug 3 loosening during sealing. At the same time, the flexible connector 5 achieves a permanent physical connection between the sealing plug 3 and the cabinet, completely avoiding the risk of loss of the sealing plug 3 while ensuring the need for quick assembly and disassembly.
[0042] The above are all preferred embodiments of this application and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this application. Therefore, all equivalent changes made in accordance with the structure, shape and principle of this application should be covered within the scope of protection of this application.
