Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to a connecting sealing latch and its radio frequency connector. Background Technology

[0002] Radio frequency (RF) connectors are widely used in the communication connections of modern electronic devices, primarily for transmitting RF signals.

[0003] Traditional RF connectors typically rely on simple threaded engagement or snap-fit ​​structures for connection. This method suffers from poor stability and sealing in high-humidity environments, leading to interference, attenuation, or even interruption of RF signal transmission, severely impacting the normal communication functions of devices.

[0004] Poor sealing allows moisture, dust, and other impurities to easily penetrate the connector, corroding its metal components, shortening its lifespan, and negatively impacting signal transmission quality.

[0005] Therefore, a connection sealing latch and its radio frequency connector are proposed. Utility Model Content

[0006] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a connecting sealing latch and its radio frequency connector to solve the problem mentioned in the background art that traditional radio frequency connectors rely solely on simple thread engagement or snap-fit ​​structures for fixation, which results in poor connection stability and sealing performance in high-humidity environments.

[0007] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a connecting sealing lock, comprising a connecting cylinder disposed on the outer periphery of two sets of radio frequency connectors, wherein connecting washers are disposed at both ends of the connecting cylinder, and a sealing gasket is disposed on the inner wall of the connecting cylinder between the two sets of connecting washers.

[0008] The tail end of the connecting cylinder is provided with a locking plate. The end of the connecting cylinder away from the locking plate is provided with a slot for inserting the locking plate. A locking element is provided at the slot so that the locking plate is inserted into the slot and fixed by the locking element.

[0009] Preferably, the locking plate is arc-shaped, and several locking teeth are provided on the outer periphery of the locking plate.

[0010] Preferably, the locking component includes a locking groove formed in the slot, a locking plate is provided in the locking groove, and the tail end of the locking plate extends into the slot.

[0011] Preferably, a plurality of slots that engage with the locking teeth are provided on the inner wall side of the locking plate, so that the locking plate is inserted into the slot and engaged with the inner wall side of the locking plate by the locking teeth.

[0012] Preferably, a connecting seat is provided at the tail end of the snap-fit ​​plate, and an adjusting bolt is connected to the connecting seat. The side of the adjusting bolt away from the connecting seat is located at the connecting cylinder.

[0013] The connecting cylinder has a groove for accommodating the connecting seat, and a threaded channel is provided on the upper part of the groove, and the threaded channel cooperates with the adjusting bolt.

[0014] Preferably, the adjusting bolt has an external thread on its outer periphery that mates with the threaded channel, and a limiting plate is provided inside the connecting seat for the adjusting bolt.

[0015] Preferably, the connecting seat has an inner cavity groove for linear movement of the limiting plate, so that the limiting plate moves to the upper end of the inner cavity groove and drives the connecting seat to move upward.

[0016] A radio frequency connector for connecting to a connecting sealing latch includes a radio frequency connector body, wherein a connecting groove for engaging with a connecting washer is provided on the outer periphery of the connecting end of the radio frequency connector body.

[0017] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0018] This invention forms a stable multi-point, multi-structure connection by locking the insert plate and slot and fixing it with a locking device. This effectively resists external interference, ensures that the RF connector fits tightly, guarantees stable signal transmission, and reduces the risk of signal interruption and transmission quality degradation.

[0019] The connecting sealing lock has a sealing gasket on the inner wall of the connecting cylinder. When connected, the sealing gasket is compressed to form a sealing barrier, which effectively fills the gap at the connection, isolates external impurities, avoids signal transmission interference and component corrosion, extends the service life of the connector, reduces maintenance costs, and ensures long-term stable performance of the equipment.

[0020] The connecting sealing latch is a separate component and is detachably connected to the RF connector. If the latch is damaged or the sealing gasket ages, only the latch needs to be replaced, instead of the entire connector, greatly reducing maintenance costs and improving maintenance efficiency.

[0028] To address the issue that traditional RF connectors rely solely on simple threaded engagement or snap-fit ​​structures for fixation, which suffer from poor stability and sealing in high-humidity environments, this invention provides a connection sealing latch and its RF connector. The technical solutions of this invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of this invention, not all of them. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of this invention without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this invention.

[0029] Please see Figure 1-6 This utility model provides a connecting sealing lock, including a connecting cylinder 1 disposed on the outer periphery of two sets of radio frequency connectors, with connecting washers 2 disposed at both ends of the connecting cylinder 1, and a sealing gasket 3 disposed on the inner wall of the connecting cylinder 1 between the two sets of connecting washers 2.

[0030] The connecting cylinder 1 has a locking plate 4 at its tail end. A slot 5 for inserting the locking plate 4 is provided at the end of the connecting cylinder 1 away from the locking plate 4. A locking element 6 is provided at the slot 5 to secure the locking plate 4 inside the slot 5. The locking element 6 includes a locking groove 61 in the slot 5, and a connecting plate 62 is provided at the locking groove 61. The tail end of the connecting plate 62 extends into the slot 5. Several slots 63 are provided on the inner wall of the connecting plate 62 to engage with locking teeth 41, allowing the locking plate 4 to be inserted into the slot 5 and engaged by the locking teeth 41 on the inner wall of the locking plate 4. A connecting seat 64 is provided at the tail end of the snap-fit ​​plate 62. An adjusting bolt 65 is connected to the connecting seat 64. The side of the adjusting bolt 65 away from the connecting seat 64 is located at the connecting cylinder 1. The connecting cylinder 1 has a groove for accommodating the connecting seat 64. A threaded channel 66 is provided at the upper part of the groove, and the threaded channel 66 and the adjusting bolt 65 are mutually engaged. An external thread 67 is provided on the outer periphery of the adjusting bolt 65 to engage with the threaded channel 66. A limiting plate 68 is provided inside the connecting seat 64. An inner cavity groove 69 is provided inside the connecting seat 64 for linear movement of the limiting plate 68, so that when the limiting plate 68 moves to the upper end of the inner cavity groove 69, it drives the connecting seat 64 to move upward.

[0031] The locking plate 4 is arc-shaped, and several locking teeth 41 are provided on the outer periphery of the locking plate 4.

[0032] A radio frequency connector for connecting to a connecting sealing latch includes a radio frequency connector body 7, wherein a connecting groove 71 is provided on the outer periphery of the connecting end of the radio frequency connector body 7 to mate with a connecting washer 2.

[0033] The working principle of the connecting sealing lock and its RF connector provided by this utility model is as follows: The connecting cylinder 1 of the connecting sealing lock is sleeved on the outer periphery of the two sets of RF connector bodies 7. The connecting washers 2 at both ends of the connecting cylinder 1 are aligned with and embedded in the connecting grooves 71 on the outer periphery of the connecting end of the RF connector body 7, respectively, to achieve initial positioning and connection.

[0034] The locking plate 4 at the tail end of the connecting cylinder 1 is aligned with the slot 5 at the other end of the connecting cylinder 1 and inserted. After the locking plate 4 is inserted into the slot 5, the locking teeth 41 on the outer periphery of the locking plate 4 engage with the slot 63 of the locking plate 62, thus securing the locking plate 4 tightly to the locking plate 62. The locking plate 62 in the locking component 6 further limits and fixes the locking plate 4 within the connecting cylinder 1, preventing it from becoming loose.

[0035] At this time, the sealing gasket 3 located between the two sets of connecting washers 2 on the inner wall of the connecting cylinder 1 will be compressed. The sealing gasket 3 is tightly attached to the connection ends of the two sets of RF connector bodies 7, filling the tiny gaps at the connection, thereby forming a sealing barrier at the connection, effectively isolating external moisture, dust and other impurities.

[0036] Tighten the adjusting bolt 65. The adjusting bolt 65 cooperates with the threaded channel 66 at the connecting cylinder 1, so that the connecting seat 64 drives the snap plate 62 to abut inward, thereby adjusting the preload between the snap plate 62 and the locking insert 4, and further ensuring the tight connection and stable fixation of the locking insert 4 and the slot 5.

[0037] During disassembly, loosen the adjusting bolt 65. The adjusting bolt 65 moves upward until the limiting plate 68 moves to the upper part of the inner cavity groove 69 of the connecting seat 64, causing the connecting seat 64 to drive the snap-fit ​​plate 62 to move outward, reducing the pre-tightening force of the snap-fit ​​plate 62 on the locking plate 4, thereby loosening the fixing of the locking member 6 on the locking plate 4, until the snap-fit ​​teeth 41 of the locking plate 4 move out of the slot 63.

[0038] After unlocking, pull the locking plate 4 out of the slot 5 to release the locking state.

[0039] Remove the sealing latches from the outer periphery of the two sets of RF connector bodies 7 to disconnect the connection.

[0040] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
