Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of connectors for new energy electric vehicles, and more specifically, to a mounting plate and connector with pre-installed fasteners. Background Technology

[0002] Connectors are an important component of new energy electric vehicles. Currently, the connectors used in the new energy electric vehicle connector industry are only of the type that require the locking screw assembly to be installed afterward. When tightening, the client needs to install the locking screw assembly first and then tighten it, which is inconvenient for installation and tightening.

[0003] Its specific structure is as follows Figure 1 As shown, during the locking process, the locking screw assembly 1-2 needs to be installed into the connector assembly 1-1 first, then the screw needs to be tightened from the top of the connector, and then the flip cover assembly 1-3 needs to be assembled into place. This makes it inconvenient for the client to install and lock the screws.

[0004] Therefore, the current connector structure needs to be improved to overcome the above-mentioned defects. Utility Model Content

[0005] The main purpose of this application is to provide a mounting plate and connector with pre-installed fasteners, which eliminates the need for fastener installation and makes installation more convenient.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, in a first aspect, this application provides a mounting plate pre-installed with fasteners, including a mounting plate body. The mounting plate body has at least one receiving cavity for placing fasteners, and the opening of the receiving cavity is arranged facing upwards. When a copper busbar is engaged with the mounting plate body, the end of the copper busbar with a through hole covers the opening, and the locking end of the fastener faces the through hole.

[0026] In addition, the term "multiple" should mean two or more.

[0027] It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features described in this application can be combined with each other. This application will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0028] like Figure 2 As shown, a mounting plate with pre-installed fasteners includes a mounting plate body 1. The mounting plate body 1 has at least one receiving cavity 2 for placing fasteners 6, and the opening of the receiving cavity 2 is arranged facing upward. When the copper busbar 4 is engaged with the mounting plate body 1, the end of the copper busbar 4 with a through hole 7 covers the opening, and the locking end of the fastener 6 is directly opposite the through hole 7.

[0029] In practice, since two through holes 7 are usually opened on the copper busbar 4, two receiving cavities 2 are usually used, that is, two fasteners 6 are pre-installed, and the fasteners 6 are preferably locking bolts.

[0030] The key to using pre-installed fasteners 6 lies in ensuring that the locking end of the fastener 6 is aligned with the through hole 7 on the copper busbar 4. Therefore, the receiving cavity 2 is provided with a limiting structure to limit the fastener 6. Specifically, the limiting structure is a limiting groove 3 opened at the bottom of the receiving cavity 2. The limiting groove 3 cooperates with the operating end of the fastener 6. Therefore, when the fastener 6 is installed into the receiving cavity 2, its operating end falls into the limiting groove 3 that cooperates with it. The limiting groove 3 restricts the fastener 6 so that the locking end of the fastener 6 can be aligned with the through hole 7, making it easier for the client to lock the copper busbar 4. In addition, the connection between the receiving cavity 2 and the limiting groove 3 has a guide slope that facilitates the insertion of the operating end of the fastener 6 into the limiting groove 3. This guide slope allows the operating end of the fastener 6 to fall into the limiting groove 3 more smoothly.

[0031] In addition, to facilitate the operation of the fastener 6 to lock the copper busbar 4 by the client, the bottom of the two receiving cavities 2 is provided with operating holes 8 for easy operation of the fastener 6. When locking the copper busbar 4, the client only needs to operate the fastener 6 through the operating holes 8 using an Allen wrench. To prevent the fastener 6 from falling out of the receiving cavity 2, the size of the operating hole 8 is smaller than the size of the operating end of the fastener 6. In order to lock the copper busbar 4, the size of the through hole 7 is larger than the size of the locking end of the fastener 6 and smaller than the size of the operating end of the fastener 6.

[0032] In order to effectively limit the copper busbar 4, the mounting plate body 1 is also provided with a cavity 5. At least a part of the copper busbar 4 is located in the cavity 5. The copper busbar 4 is usually L-shaped, so part of it is located in the cavity 5, while the part with the perforation 7 covers the opening of the receiving cavity 2.

[0033] like Figure 3 , Figure 4 As shown, a connector includes a mounting plate with pre-installed fasteners 6. The connector actually has two sets of copper busbars 4, and this design locks both busbars 4 simultaneously. Therefore, the connector also includes another copper busbar 4 mounted on a sheath 9. The sheath 9 is pre-installed with a nut 10 that mates with the locking end of the fasteners 6. Figure 4 As shown, when the client operates the fastener 6, it only needs to use an Allen wrench to operate the fastener 6 through the operating hole 8. Its locking end cooperates with the nut 10, and at the same time, the two copper busbars 4 are locked.

[0034] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this application and is not intended to limit this application. Various modifications and variations can be made to this application by those skilled in the art. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of this application should be included within the protection scope of this application.
