AI Technical Summary
Existing engine wiring harness connectors are prone to detachment due to misoperation or external pressure in special environments, resulting in loose connections and poor contact, which affects the normal operation of the electronic control system.
An anti-disengagement component is installed inside the wire harness connector, including a "U"-shaped rear frame and a flexible locking tongue. The flexible locking tongue is locked onto the locking stop bar to prevent it from moving upward and disengaging from the limiting protrusion, thereby enhancing connection stability.
It effectively prevents the separation and detachment of wiring harness connectors, improves the safety and reliability of engine wiring harness assembly and electronic control system, and avoids fault codes and abnormal system response.

Abstract
Claims
1. An anti-disengagement structure for an engine wiring harness connector, comprising a sensor (1) and a wiring harness connector (2), wherein a limiting protrusion (11) is formed on the connector of the sensor (1), the wiring harness connector (2) is sleeved on the connector of the sensor (1), and a locking stop (21) and an elastic handle (22) are provided inside the wiring harness connector (2). Connecting arms are formed at both ends of the locking stop (21), and the connecting arms are connected to the elastic handle (22). Manually pressing the elastic handle (22) drives the locking stop (21) to move, and the locking stop (21) is snapped onto the limiting protrusion (11) of the sensor (1); characterized in that: A retaining clip with an anti - detachment fastener (3) is inserted into the wire harness connector (2). The anti - detachment fastener (3) includes a "U" - shaped rear frame (31). An elastic locking tongue (32) is formed in the middle of the rear frame (31). The elastic locking tongue (32) is inserted between the connecting arms of the wire harness connector (2). A downward hook (33) is formed at the end of the elastic locking tongue (32). The hook (33) is latched onto the locking bar (21).
2. The engine wiring harness connector anti-disconnection structure according to claim 1, characterized in that: Above the elastic locking tongue (32) of the anti - detachment fastener (3), there is a "C" - shaped upper frame (34). The two ends of the upper frame (34) are respectively formed together with the two ends of the rear frame (31). An avoidance opening (38) is formed by enclosing the upper frame (34) and the rear frame (31). The elastic handle (22) and the elastic locking tongue (32) of the wire harness connector (2) are located in the avoidance opening (38) of the anti - detachment fastener (3).
3. The engine wiring harness connector anti-disconnection structure according to claim 2, characterized in that: At the lower end surfaces on both sides of the upper frame (34), there are formed clamping seats (35). On the outer side wall of the clamping seat (35), there is a guiding groove (36). On the bottom surface in the middle of the guiding groove (36), there is a triangular clamping projection (37) formed. Guiding card strips are formed on the inner walls on both sides of the wire harness connector (2), and positioning gaps are formed on the guiding card strips. The guiding card strips of the wire harness connector (2) are respectively inserted into the guiding grooves (36) on both sides of the anti - detachment fastener (3), and the clamping projections (37) on the anti - detachment fastener (3) are respectively inserted into the positioning gaps of the anti - detachment fastener (3).
4. The engine wiring harness connector anti-disconnection structure according to claim 3, characterized in that: At the lower side of the clamping seat (35), there is an L - shaped side baffle (39). The side baffle (39) respectively abuts against both side walls of the upper joint of the sensor (1).
5. The engine wiring harness connector anti-disconnection structure according to claim 1, characterized in that: The elastic handle (22) on the wire harness connector (2) is located directly above the elastic locking tongue (32) of the anti - detachment fastener (3). There is a gap between the elastic locking tongue (32) and the elastic handle (22).
6. The engine wiring harness connector anti-disconnection structure according to claim 1, characterized in that: A sealing sleeve is inserted and fixed in the wire harness connector (2). A number of annular sealing lips are formed on the inner wall of the sealing sleeve. The sealing lips respectively press against the joint of the sensor (1).
