Detailed Implementation

[0023] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0024] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown, the multi-contact integrated four-way waterproof control module provided by this utility model includes:

[0025] Controller 1, with contact interfaces 2 on the top and bottom of the right side of controller 1, and fixing mechanisms 3 fixedly connected to the top and bottom of the right side of controller 1 and the front end of the contact interfaces 2.

[0026] The fixing mechanism 3 includes a connecting box 31, an L-shaped connecting plate 32, and a buckle 33. The connecting box 31 is fixedly connected to the top and bottom of the right side of the controller 1 and to the front end of the contact interface 2. The L-shaped connecting plate 32 is slidably connected to the top and bottom of the right side of the connecting box 31. The buckle 33 is fixedly connected to the end of the L-shaped connecting plate 32 away from the connecting box 31. The transmission mechanism 4 is fixedly connected longitudinally to the inner cavity of the connecting box 31.

[0027] refer to Figure 5 The transmission mechanism 4 includes a rectangular frame 41, a slider 42, and a docking plate 43. The rectangular frame 41 is longitudinally fixedly connected to the inner cavity of the connecting box 31. The top and bottom of the front end of the rectangular frame 41 are slidably connected to the slider 42. The back end of the slider 42 passes through the back end of the rectangular frame 41 and is fixedly connected to the docking plate 43. The left side of the L-shaped connecting plate 32 passes through the interior of the connecting box 31 and is fixedly connected to the right side of the docking plate 43. The front end of the docking plate 43 is slidably connected to the operating mechanism 5.

[0028] As a technical optimization of this utility model, by setting the transmission mechanism 4, the docking plates 43 can be brought closer to each other under the influence of external force. The closer docking plates 43 drive the slider 42 to move stably inside the rectangular frame 41, thereby realizing the transmission of mechanical power and avoiding the phenomenon of slider 42 deviating during the movement.

[0029] refer to Figure 4 The operating mechanism 5 includes a sliding column 51, a vertical rod 52, an extension rod 53, and a handle 54. The sliding column 51 is slidably connected to the front end of the docking plate 43. The vertical rod 52 is fixedly sleeved on the surface of the sliding column 51. The extension rod 53 is fixedly sleeved at the center of the surface of the vertical rod 52. The front end of the extension rod 53 passes through the front end of the connecting box 31 and is fixedly connected to the handle 54.

[0030] As a technical optimization of this utility model, the operating mechanism 5 enables the handle 54 to be moved manually. The movement of the handle 54 causes the extension rod 53 and the vertical rod 52 to move accordingly. The movement of the vertical rod 52 causes the sliding column 51 to move accordingly. The movement of the sliding column 51 causes the docking plate 43 to be subjected to force and complete the movement, thereby enabling the docking plate 43 to complete the mechanical movement and avoiding the phenomenon of the sliding column 51 detaching during the movement.

[0031] refer to Figure 5 The top and bottom of the inner wall of the rectangular frame 41 are fixedly connected with tension springs 6, and the inner side of the tension springs 6 is fixedly connected to one side of the slider 42.

[0032] As a technical optimization of this utility model, the tension spring 6 can assist the slider 42 in working and at the same time play a role in reset and buffering, thus preventing the slider 42 from failing to reset after moving, which would cause the machine to stop working continuously.

[0033] refer to Figure 5 A groove 7 is provided on the surface of the rectangular frame 41 at the position corresponding to the slider 42. The groove 7 is used in conjunction with the slider 42.

[0034] As a technical optimization of this utility model, the sliding groove 7 can assist the slider 42 in working and also play a limiting role, preventing the slider 42 from detaching during movement.

[0035] refer to Figure 4 An inclined groove 8 is provided on the surface of the docking plate 43 at the position corresponding to the sliding column 51. The inclined groove 8 is used in conjunction with the sliding column 51.

[0036] As a technical optimization of this utility model, the inclined groove 8 can assist the sliding column 51 in its work and also serve as a limit, preventing the sliding column 51 from being unable to force the docking plate 43 to perform mechanical movement during its movement.

[0037] The working principle and usage process of this utility model are as follows: When in use, insert the wire harness connector into the contact interface 2, and cooperate with the controller 1 to realize the control and signal transmission of various functions to meet the diverse control needs of different devices or systems. Then, manually push the handle 54 to the left. The handle 54 moves to the left, which drives the extension rod 53 and the vertical rod 52 to move synchronously. The vertical rod 52 moves, which drives the sliding column 51 to move stably along the inclined groove 8 on the surface of the docking plate 43. The different contact angles of the sliding column 51 with the inclined groove 8 force the docking plate 43 to move closer to the inside. The docking plates 43 move closer to each other, which drives the L-shaped connecting plate 32 and the slider 42 to move synchronously. The slider 42 moves stably along the sliding groove 7 inside the rectangular frame 41. The movement of the slider 42 cooperates with the tension spring 6 to actively reset and release elastic potential energy. Finally, the L-shaped connecting plate 32 moves closer to the inside, which drives the buckle 33 to move closer to each other to clamp and fix the wire harness connector, thereby preventing the wire harness connector from falling off and affecting the signal transmission of the controller 1.

[0038] In summary, this multi-contact integrated four-way waterproof control module works in conjunction with a controller 1, contact interface 2, fixing mechanism 3, connecting box 31, L-shaped connecting plate 32, buckle 33, and transmission mechanism 4. During use, the wire harness is plugged into contact interface 2. Then, the L-shaped connecting plates 32 are brought closer together under force, and their movement causes the buckle 33 to clamp and fix the wire harness connector, thus securing it. This prevents the wire harness connector from falling off due to pulling, which could affect signal transmission safety. It solves the problem of existing multi-contact integrated control modules having multiple contacts and capable of various control and signal transmission functions, where external wire harnesses are easily dislodged at the contact connectors due to vibration or pulling.
