However, because the existing bracket bases are in a vibrating environment, the cable ties are prone to coming undone when the accessories are directly bound and fixed, making the accessories not securely fixed, causing damage to the accessories, and leading to safety hazards such as falling off after installation. Utility Model Content
[0003] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a connector with a split snap-fit structure that prevents the adapter from being loosely fixed after assembly and ensures that it will not fall off after installation.

[0023] Compared with the prior art, the implementation of this utility model adopts a buckle structure fixed on one side of the connector body; a stop block structure fixed on the connector body on one side of the buckle structure; and a cable tie through-hole structure set on the other side of the connector body. The buckle structure snaps into and fixes the entire connector; then the cable tie is inserted for secure binding. This utility model improves the fixing method of the bracket base and cable tie through the connector buckle; it prevents the accessories (air tube, wire harness, steel wire) from being loosely fixed after assembly, eliminating safety hazards such as falling off after installation; this utility model has a slot structure in the connector buckle product design: during the installation process, the head slot structure constrains the buckle to engage with the bracket base; the connector buckle product has a slot positioning structure: after the slot structure is installed in place, it is fixed to the bracket base by the positioning structure, forming an inverted structure; thereby increasing the pull-out force of the connector buckle to meet the assembly strength requirements; the connector buckle product design changes the traditional fixing method of the bracket base and cable tie;
[0024] Compared with existing technologies, it has the following advantages:
[0025] (1) The installation and fixing method of the bracket base and cable ties have been improved, which has improved the product fixing stability.

[0028] (4) By standardizing fixed spacing (main line ≤300mm, harsh environment ≤150mm) and sharp angle avoidance design, the risk of wire harness wear is reduced by 30%.
[0029] This invention solves the technical problem that when using existing bracket bases to fix accessories (air hoses, wire harnesses, steel wires), the accessories are usually fixed by directly using cable ties. However, because the existing bracket bases are in a vibrating environment, the cable ties are prone to coming undone when used to fix the accessories, resulting in the accessories not being securely fixed, causing damage to the accessories, and leading to safety hazards such as falling off after installation.

[0035] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the various embodiments of this utility model will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, those skilled in the art will understand that many technical details have been provided in the various embodiments of this utility model to facilitate a better understanding of this application. However, the technical solutions claimed in the claims of this application can be implemented even without these technical details and with various variations and modifications based on the following embodiments.
[0036] The embodiments of this utility model relate to a connector with a split snap-fit structure, such as... Figures 1 to 4 As shown, it includes:
[0037] In this embodiment, the connector body 1 serves as the main structure in the connector with a split snap-fit structure;
[0038] A snap-fit structure 2 is fixed on one side of the connector body 1; the snap-fit structure 2 is used to lock onto the bracket base.
[0039] On one side of the snap-fit structure 2, a stop structure 3 is fixed on the connector body 1; the stop structure 3 mainly makes the snap-fit structure 2 snap into the bracket base, and the stop structure 3 prevents the connector with the split snap-fit structure from sliding on the bracket base.
[0040] A cable tie through-hole structure 4 is provided on the other side of the connector body 1; a snap-fit structure 2 is inserted to fix the entire connector; and cable ties are then inserted to fix and bind air tubes, wire harnesses, and steel wires. The cable tie through-hole structure 4 is used to insert cable ties.
[0041] This embodiment improves the fixing method of the bracket base and cable ties by using connector clips; it prevents the accessories (air hoses, wire harnesses, steel wires) from being loosely fixed after assembly, eliminating safety hazards such as falling off after installation. This utility model features a slot structure in the connector clip design: during installation, the head slot structure constrains the connection with the bracket base; the connector clip also features a slot positioning structure: after the slot structure is installed in place, it is fixed to the bracket base by the positioning structure, forming an inverted structure; thereby increasing the pull-out force of the connector clip and meeting the assembly strength requirements. The connector clip design changes the traditional fixing method of the bracket base and cable ties. It solves the technical problem that when using existing bracket bases to fix accessories (air hoses, wire harnesses, steel wires), the cable ties are generally used to directly bind the accessories. However, because existing bracket bases are in a vibrating environment, the cable ties are prone to coming undone when used to directly bind the accessories, resulting in loose fixing, damage to the accessories, and safety hazards such as falling off after installation.
[0042] To address the aforementioned technical issues, in the connector with a split-type snap-fit structure in this embodiment, such as... Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the connector body 1 is designed in a square or circular shape. This is primarily to protect the air tube, wiring harness, and steel wire from being scratched.

[0045] On the connector body 1, locking feet 21 are symmetrically arranged along a preset axis; the locking feet 21 are arranged facing each other; the locking feet 21 are used to lock the bracket base.
[0046] A baffle 22 is connected to one side of the locking foot 21; the baffle 22 is located on the same side as the locking foot 21. The baffle 22 is mainly used to lock the bracket base in place and prevent it from sliding.
[0047] To address the aforementioned technical issues, in the connector with a split-type snap-fit structure in this embodiment, such as... Figures 1 to 4 As shown, there are two locking feet 21; each locking foot 21 is designed as a right-angle hook. This makes it easier to lock the bracket base.
[0048] To address the aforementioned technical issues, in the connector with a split-type snap-fit structure in this embodiment, such as... Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the right-angled edge of any one of the locking feet 21 is rounded; the inner side of any one of the locking feet 21 is flat. This structure makes it easier for the locking feet 21 to hold the bracket base.
[0049] To address the aforementioned technical issues, in the connector with a split-type snap-fit structure in this embodiment, such as... Figures 1 to 4 As shown, one side of the stop structure 3 is provided with an inclination angle 31, and the other side of the stop structure is provided with a right angle 32. This is to better block the support base.
[0050] To address the aforementioned technical issues, in the connector with a split-type snap-fit structure in this embodiment, such as... Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the cable tie perforation structure 4 also includes:
[0051] A protrusion 41 is provided on the other side of the connector body 1;
[0052] A through hole 42 is formed on the protrusion 41 along a predetermined axis; the through hole 42 is provided on the protrusion 41 to allow the cable tie to be inserted.
[0053] Two clips 43 are symmetrically arranged in the direction perpendicular to the preset axis within the through hole 42; when the cable tie is inserted, the clips 43 push the cable tie toward the side of the connector body 1 to pre-tighten the cable tie.
[0054] To address the aforementioned technical issues, in the connector with a split-type snap-fit structure in this embodiment, such as... Figures 1 to 4 As shown, through hole 42 is a square through hole.
[0055] To address the aforementioned technical issues, in the connector with a split-type snap-fit structure in this embodiment, such as... Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the two clips 43 are symmetrically arranged and both bend symmetrically towards a preset axis. This is to stabilize the cable tie when it is inserted.
