Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of connectors, and more particularly to a magnetic connector. Background Technology

[0002] Typically, TYPEC magnetic male and female connectors on the market use an adapter. When using them, the male connector of the adapter must be inserted into the female connector of the appliance. This requires accurate insertion and the application of external force to achieve a certain depth to enable the function, which causes many inconveniences in actual use.

[0003] Furthermore, most common adapters on the market rely on a single clip for locking the male and female connectors, requiring precise alignment and external force for insertion. This can be inconvenient for elderly users or those operating with one hand. Utility Model Content

[0004] The main objective of this invention is to provide a magnetic connector that addresses the aforementioned technical problems.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model proposes a magnetic connector comprising a male connector and a female connector. The male connector has a built-in insertion cavity, and the female connector has an exposed insertion end. The insertion cavity is provided with a plurality of first conductive contacts, and the insertion end is provided with a plurality of second conductive contacts. The end faces of the male connector and the female connector facing each other are respectively provided with a first magnetic element and a second magnetic element, so that the male connector and the female connector can be magnetically connected to allow the insertion end to be inserted into the insertion cavity, thereby connecting the first conductive contacts and the second conductive contacts.

[0006] In one embodiment, the female connector includes a female connector sleeve and a female terminal disposed inside the female connector sleeve, both ends of the female terminal being exposed outside the female connector sleeve, and the second conductive contact is disposed on the female terminal.

[0007] In one embodiment, the female connector further includes a female connector base, the female connector base being disposed within the female connector sleeve and the female terminal being embedded within the female connector base.

[0008] In one embodiment, the female connector further includes a female connector steel shell, which is sleeved on the outside of the female connector sheath, and the second magnetic element is disposed on the end face of the female connector steel shell.

[0009] In one embodiment, the male connector includes a male connector sleeve with an axial mounting cavity, two male connector bases disposed within the male connector sleeve, and two male terminals. The two male terminals are respectively embedded in the two male connector bases and are arranged opposite each other to form a plug-in gap. The first conductive contact is disposed on the male terminal.

[0010] In one embodiment, the male head cover has a fitting portion, on which the first magnetic element is fitted.

[0011] In this invention, the magnetic connector includes a male connector and a female connector. The male connector has a built-in insertion cavity, and the female connector has an exposed insertion end. The insertion cavity contains several first conductive contacts, and the insertion end has several second conductive contacts. First magnetic elements and second magnetic elements are respectively provided on the opposite end faces of the male and female connectors, allowing the insertion end to be inserted into the insertion cavity via magnetic attraction, thus connecting the first and second conductive contacts. Therefore, by installing first and second magnetic elements at the insertion points of the male and female connectors to achieve magnetic connection, the product can be locked in place, improving its positioning function.

[0022] This utility model provides a magnetic connector.

[0023] like Figure 1-2 As shown, the magnetic connector provided in this embodiment of the present invention includes a male connector 10 and a female connector 20. The male connector 10 has a built-in insertion cavity 11, and the female connector 20 has an exposed insertion end 21. The insertion cavity 11 is provided with a plurality of first conductive contacts 12, and the insertion end 21 is provided with a plurality of second conductive contacts 22. The end faces of the male connector 10 and the female connector 20 facing each other are respectively provided with a first magnetic element 30 and a second magnetic element 40, so that the male connector 10 and the female connector 20 can be magnetically connected so that the insertion end 21 is inserted into the insertion cavity 11, and the first conductive contacts 12 and the second conductive contacts 22 are connected.

[0024] In this embodiment, by installing a first magnetic component 30 and a second magnetic component 40 at the insertion points of the male connector 10 and the female connector 20, the two are magnetically connected, which can play a role in locking the product and improve the product positioning function.

[0025] Please refer to Figure 3 The female connector 20 includes a female connector sleeve 23 and a female terminal 24 that penetrates the interior of the female connector sleeve 23. Both ends of the female terminal 24 are exposed outside the female connector sleeve 23, and the second conductive contact 22 is disposed on the female terminal 24. In this embodiment, the contact conductive portion of the female connector 20 extends towards the male connector 10, thereby shortening the insertion distance.

[0026] In one embodiment, the female connector 20 further includes a female connector base 25, which is disposed within the female connector sleeve 23, and the female terminal 24 is embedded within the female connector base 25. The female connector 20 also includes a female connector steel shell 26, which is sleeved on the outside of the female connector sleeve 23, and the second magnetic element 40 is disposed on the end face of the female connector steel shell 26. In this embodiment, the female terminal 24 is fixed by the female connector base 25, while a portion of the female terminal 24 is exposed to form a second conductive contact 22, thereby improving the stability of the female terminal 24.

[0027] Please refer to Figure 2 The male connector 10 includes a male connector sleeve 13 with an axial mounting cavity, two male connector bases disposed within the male connector sleeve 13, and two male terminals 14. The two male terminals are respectively embedded in the two male connector bases and are arranged opposite each other to form a insertion gap. The first conductive contact 12 is disposed on the male terminal 14. The male connector sleeve 13 has a fitting portion 15, on which the first magnetic element 30 is fitted. In this embodiment, the first magnetic element 30 and the second magnetic element 40 are magnetic rings with opposite magnetic properties. When they are close together, they attract each other, and the male connector 10 can then mate with the female connector 20. The insertion end 21 of the female connector 20 can be inserted into the insertion gap in the insertion cavity 11 of the male connector 10, so that the second conductive contact 22 and the first conductive contact 12 come into contact to achieve conductivity.

[0028] Additionally, a sealing ring 50 can be installed at the socket to achieve waterproofing and improve its sealing performance.
