Description
A pluggable electrical connector assembly Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of electrical connector technology, and specifically to a pluggable electrical connector assembly. Background Technology
[0002] Electrical connectors are widely used in various electrical appliances and usually consist of a socket and a plug. However, existing electrical connectors still pose a risk of reverse insertion, which can lead to certain safety hazards.
[0003] A search revealed that prior art CN219760128U discloses a reverse-insertion-resistant pluggable electrical connector, including a socket and a plug. The socket has a pair of male conductors suitable for insertion, and the plug has a pair of female conductors suitable for insertion. The male conductors have a cylindrical structure with an insulating head at their ends. The female conductors have a cylindrical end suitable for insertion into the cylindrical male conductors. The inner wall of the female conductors has an elastic conductor. When the male conductors and female conductors are inserted, the elastic conductor presses against the outer wall of the male conductors. The front end of the plug also has an insulating front end, which is used to block the end of the female conductors.
[0004] However, the above connectors have the following problems when in use: they do not have an anti-detachment structure, the socket and plug are easy to detach during use, and external water can easily enter the interior, resulting in poor safety. Summary of the Invention
[0005] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a pluggable electrical connector assembly to solve the problems of existing connectors not having an anti-detachment structure during use, which makes the socket and plug easy to fall off during use, and external water can easily enter the interior, resulting in poor safety.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows: This utility model provides a pluggable electrical connector assembly, including a main connector, an auxiliary connector is plugged into one side of the main connector, and fixing parts are provided on both sides of the main connector, with semi-circular grooves provided on the fixing parts;
[0007] The auxiliary connector is provided with an elastic locking part, and the elastic locking part is provided with a semi-circular block, which can be locked into the semi-circular groove.
[0008] It also includes auxiliary components;
[0009] The auxiliary components include a mating platform, a sealing ring, a partition plate, a first connecting component, and a second connecting component. The mating platform is integrally formed with the main connector and is slidably connected to the positioning part of the auxiliary connector. The sealing ring is spaced apart in the mounting cavity of the mating platform and is slidably connected to the positioning part of the auxiliary connector. The partition plate is integrally formed with the main connector and is disposed inside the main connector, dividing the interior of the main connector into independent working cavities after installation. The first connecting component is disposed inside the main connector, and the second connecting component is disposed inside the auxiliary connector and mates with the first connecting component.
[0010] The first connecting component includes a cannula and a first cable. The cannula is disposed inside the main connector and on both sides of the isolation plate. The first cable is electrically connected to the cannula and is disposed on one side of the main connector.
[0011] The outer side of the insertion tube is provided with a reinforcing part, which is slidably connected to the mating cavity of the auxiliary connector and integrally formed with the housing of the main connector.
[0012] The second connecting component includes a pin and a second cable. The pin is disposed on the auxiliary connector and is slidably inserted into the insertion tube. The second cable is electrically connected to the pin and is disposed on one side of the auxiliary connector.
[0013] The auxiliary component also includes a guide post, which is integrally disposed on the mating platform and slides in contact with the mating groove on the auxiliary connector.
[0014] This utility model discloses a pluggable electrical connector assembly. After the main connector and auxiliary connector are plugged in, conductivity is achieved through the contact and cooperation of the first connecting part and the second connecting part. Further, by setting a fixing part on the main connector and a semi-circular groove on the fixing part, the auxiliary connector can be pressed to deform the elastic locking parts on both sides and move closer to each other during insertion. Then, the auxiliary connector is pushed to move and insert. Finally, after insertion, the elastic locking parts are released. At this time, the semi-circular block can slide into the semi-circular groove, thus forming an anti-detachment structure to prevent the main connector and auxiliary connector from falling off after plugging in. The set mating platform and sealing ring structure helps to reduce the ingress of external water into the interior. Thus, it can solve the problem that existing connectors do not have an anti-detachment structure during use, and the socket and plug are easy to fall off during use, and external water can easily enter the interior, resulting in poor safety.

Detailed Implementation
[0021] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand this utility model, the technical solution of this utility model will be further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments.
[0022] Example 1:
[0023] As shown in Figures 1 to 3, where Figure 1 is a schematic diagram of the overall structure of the pluggable electrical connector assembly, Figure 2 is a schematic diagram of the main connector 101, and Figure 3 is a schematic diagram of the auxiliary connector 102, this utility model provides a pluggable electrical connector assembly: including a main connector 101, an auxiliary connector 102, and auxiliary components. The auxiliary components include a mating platform 107, a sealing ring 108, an isolation plate 109, a first connecting component, and a second connecting component. The first connecting component includes a insertion tube 110 and a first cable 111, and the second connecting component includes a pin 113 and a second cable 114. The aforementioned solution solves the problem that existing connectors lack an anti-detachment structure during use, making the socket and plug prone to detachment and allowing external water to easily enter, resulting in poor safety. It is understood that the aforementioned solution can prevent connector detachment and improve safety during use.
[0024] In this embodiment, an auxiliary connector 102 is inserted and installed on one side of the main connector 101.
[0025] The main connector 101 has fixing parts 103 on both sides, and each fixing part 103 has a semi-circular groove 104. The fixing parts 103 do not undergo elastic deformation during operation, and the semi-circular groove 104 is provided on the fixing parts 103. Vertically symmetrical limiting parts are provided on the fixing parts 103, which facilitate the sliding guidance and limiting of the elastic locking part 105. Limiting posts are provided on both sides of the main connector 101. These limiting posts limit the elastic locking part 105 when it is pressed close, preventing breakage when its travel is at its maximum position. They are made of hard plastic and do not affect the installation and removal of the elastic locking part 105. When the semi-circular block 106 on the elastic locking part 105 is completely disengaged from the semi-circular groove 104, a safe gap exists between the semi-circular block 106 and the limiting post, facilitating removal.
[0026] The auxiliary connector 102 is provided with an elastic locking part 105, and the elastic locking part 105 is provided with a semi-circular block 106, which can be inserted into the semi-circular groove 104; the elastic locking part 105 can be brought closer by pressing to deform it when the auxiliary connector 102 is installed.
[0027] The mating platform 107 is integrally formed with the main connector 101 and slidably connected to the positioning part of the auxiliary connector 102. The sealing ring 108 is spaced apart in the mounting cavity of the mating platform 107 and slidably connected to the positioning part of the auxiliary connector 102. The isolation plate 109 is integrally formed with the main connector 101 and is disposed inside the main connector 101. After installation, it divides the interior of the main connector 101 into independent working cavities. The first connecting component is disposed inside the main connector 101, and the second connecting component is disposed inside the auxiliary connector 102 and mates with the first connecting component. The mating platform 107 has two mounting slots to facilitate the installation of the sealing ring 108. The sealing ring 108 is an O-ring made of wear-resistant rubber. The auxiliary connector 102 has a T-shaped positioning part. The isolation plate 109 is integrally disposed inside the main connector 101. After its placement, it divides the mounting area of the insertion tube 110 of the main connector 101, improving safety. The first connecting component and the second connecting component achieve electrical conductivity after insertion and mating.
[0028] Secondly, the insertion tube 110 is disposed inside the main connector 101 and on both sides of the isolation plate 109; the first cable 111 is electrically connected to the insertion tube 110 and is disposed on one side of the main connector 101. After one end of the first cable 111 is electrically connected to the insertion tube 110, the other end will pass through the housing of the main connector 101.
[0029] Then, a reinforcing part 112 is provided on the outer side of the insertion tube 110. The reinforcing part 112 is slidably connected to the mating cavity of the auxiliary connector 102 and is integrally formed with the housing of the main connector 101. The reinforcing part 112 is used to improve the stability of the insertion tube 110 and is made of insulating plastic.
[0030] Finally, the pin 113 is disposed on the auxiliary connector 102 and slidably inserted into the tube 110; the second cable 114 is electrically connected to the pin 113 and disposed on one side of the auxiliary connector 102. The pin 113 can be slidably inserted into the tube 110, and conduction is achieved after insertion. After one end of the second cable 114 is electrically connected to the pin 113, the other end will protrude from the housing of the auxiliary connector 102.
[0031] To address the problems of existing connectors lacking anti-detachment structures, leading to easy detachment of the socket and plug during use, and the easy entry of external water, resulting in poor safety, this invention addresses these issues. Firstly, after the main connector 101 and the auxiliary connector 102 are inserted, conductivity is achieved through the contact engagement of the pins 113 and the insertion tube 110. Furthermore, by providing a fixing part 103 on the main connector 101, and a semi-circular groove 104 on the fixing part 103, the auxiliary connector 102 can be deformed and brought closer together by pressing down on the elastic locking parts 105 on both sides during insertion. The auxiliary connector 102 is pushed to move and plug in. After it is finally plugged in, the elastic locking part 105 is released. At this time, the semi-circular block 106 can slide into the semi-circular groove 104 after resetting, thus forming an anti-dislodgement structure to prevent the main connector 101 and the auxiliary connector 102 from falling off during operation. The mating platform 107 and the sealing ring 108 structure helps to reduce the entry of external water into the interior, thereby solving the problem that existing connectors do not have an anti-dislodgement structure, and the socket and plug are easy to fall off during use, and external water can easily enter the interior, resulting in poor safety.
[0032] Example 2:

The auxiliary component further includes a guide post 201, which is integrally disposed on the mating platform 107 and slides in cooperation with the mating groove on the auxiliary connector 102.
[0034] In this embodiment, by providing the guide post 201 on the mating platform 107, this structure facilitates the sliding engagement of the semi-circular mating groove on the positioning part for guidance during the insertion of the auxiliary connector 102.
[0035] The above embodiments are merely illustrative of the principles and effects of this utility model and are not intended to limit the scope of this utility model. Any person skilled in the art can modify or alter the above embodiments without departing from the spirit and scope of this utility model. Therefore, all equivalent modifications or alterations made by those skilled in the art without departing from the spirit and technical concept disclosed in this utility model should still be covered by the claims of this utility model.
