[0002] As a core interface component of electrical systems, the reliability of power connection terminals directly affects the operational safety of equipment and the user experience. In the fields of consumer electronics, industrial equipment, and new energy, SR terminals (also known as power connection terminals) are widely used due to their high conductivity and easy insertion / removal characteristics.

[0003] Existing connection terminals have the following problems: Incorrect insertion of SR terminals of different specifications or polarities may cause short circuits, equipment burnout, or even fire risks. In scenarios requiring frequent insertion and removal, traditional snap-fit ​​connections are prone to incorrect insertion due to operator fatigue or visual errors, and long-term wear of the snaps can lead to poor contact, increasing the risk of hidden faults. Existing anti-misinsertion structures (such as simple boss limiting) are susceptible to dust, moisture corrosion, or mechanical impact, causing the anti-misinsertion function to fail and affecting system stability.

[0026] Example

[0027] Reference Figures 1-5 This embodiment of the present invention provides a mis-insertion prevention connection device for a power supply SR terminal, comprising:

[0028] The socket assembly 100 includes a socket housing 101, a terminal mounting plate 102 fixedly connected to the middle of the socket housing 101, a fixing plate 103 installed at the end of the socket housing 101, and a support member 104 fixedly connected to the bottom of the socket housing 101.

[0029] The plug assembly 200 includes a connecting plate 201 that is inserted into the side wall of the fixing plate 103, a plug housing 202 that is fixedly connected to the side wall of the connecting plate 201, and a claw 203 that is slidably engaged inside the plug housing 202. The end of the claw 203 is engaged in the middle of the slot on the side wall of the fixing plate 103, and the end of the claw 203 is located inside the support member 104.

[0030] The socket housing 101 protects and houses the internal components. The terminal mounting plate 102 is fixed in the middle of the socket housing 101 for mounting the power SR terminal. The fixing plate 103 is installed at the end of the socket housing 101, its main function being to mate and fix with the plug assembly 200. The support member 104 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the socket housing 101, providing support for the entire socket assembly 100 and enhancing the stability of the device. The connecting plate 201 serves as a transition and connection. The plug housing 202 is the main outer shell of the plug assembly 200, providing installation space for other components. The latch 203 is a key component for connecting the plug and socket and preventing mis-insertion; through its cooperation with the latch of the fixing plate 103, it can firmly fix the plug to the socket.

[0031] Specifically, the plug assembly 200 also includes a spring 204 fixedly connected to the middle position inside the plug housing 202, with the end of the spring 204 fixedly connected to the side wall of the claw 203.

[0032] The spring 204 provides elastic force to the jaw 203, enabling the jaw 203 to automatically adjust its position during insertion and removal, ensuring a tight fit between the jaw 203 and the slot of the fixing plate 103.

[0033] Furthermore, the plug assembly 200 also includes a stop 205 that is inserted into the middle position of the end of the plug housing 202, and the end of the stop 205 is engaged with the end side wall of the claw 203.

[0034] The stop block 205 serves to limit the movement range of the claw 203, preventing the claw 203 from moving excessively and causing unstable connection. It also prevents the claw 203 from accidentally moving due to accidental contact, which could affect the stability of the plug and socket connection.

[0035] Furthermore, the plug assembly 200 also includes a plug rod 206 threaded to the end of the claw 203. The end of the plug rod 206 has an arc-shaped structure and is inserted into the middle of the slot on the side wall of the stop block 205.

[0036] The arc-shaped structure of the insertion rod 206 facilitates insertion into the slot of the stop block 205, and, in conjunction with the stop block 205, further enhances the positioning and stability of the claw 203.

[0037] Preferably, the plug assembly 200 further includes a set screw 207 threadedly connected to the middle position of the end of the claw 203, the end of the set screw 207 being inserted into the side wall of the plug 206.

[0038] The set screw 207 is used to fix the plug rod 206, prevent the plug rod 206 from loosening during use, and ensure the reliability of the entire connection structure.

[0039] It should be noted that the plug assembly 200 also includes a limiting plate 208 fixedly connected to the end of the plug housing 202, and the limiting plate 208 is snapped onto the outside of the claw 203.

[0040] The limiting plate 208 serves to limit and protect the claw 203, preventing the claw 203 from moving beyond its effective range.

[0041] Preferably, the plug assembly 200 further includes a baffle 209 fixedly connected to the side wall of the plug housing 202. The baffle 209 has a clearance hole at its center that cooperates with the set screw 207. The end of the baffle 209 extends above the limiting plate 208, and the upper part of the limiting plate 208 and the lower side wall of the baffle 209 have clearance grooves that cooperate with the plug rod 206.

[0042] Among them, the baffle 209 not only provides operating space for the set screw 207 and the insertion rod 206, but also provides further protection for the chuck 203, preventing external objects from damaging the chuck.

[0043] In use, when the plug assembly needs to be inserted into the socket assembly, first align the connecting plate 201 with the side wall of the fixing plate 103, and then move the plug assembly 200 towards the socket assembly 100. During the movement, the claw 203 is pressed by the fixing plate 103 and slides into the plug housing 202, while simultaneously compressing the spring 204. When the claw 203 moves to the slot position on the side wall of the fixing plate 103, the elastic force of the spring 204 causes the claw 203 to pop out and engage in the slot, thereby achieving the connection between the plug and the socket. Then, the stop 205 is inserted into the side wall of the plug housing 202, and the end of the plug rod 206 is inserted into the slot on the side wall of the stop 205, further enhancing the stability of the connection.

[0044] When it is necessary to remove the plug assembly, the set screw 207 must first be operated to separate the plug 206 from the stop block 205. Then, overcoming the elastic force of the spring 204, the claw 203 is pressed into the plug housing 202, causing the claw 203 to disengage from the slot of the fixing plate 103. Finally, the plug assembly 200 is pulled out of the socket assembly 100.

[0045] In summary, through the special engagement between the claw 203 and the slot of the fixing plate 103, the claw 203 can only smoothly engage in the slot when inserted in the correct direction and position, effectively preventing mis-insertion and improving safety and reliability. The spring 204 provides continuous elastic force to the claw 203, ensuring a tight fit between the claw 203 and the slot. Simultaneously, the engagement between the insertion rod 206 and the stop block 205, along with the fixing effect of the set screw 207, further enhances the stability of the connection, preventing the plug and socket from loosening or falling off during use. The limiting plate 208 and the baffle 209 effectively protect the claw 203, extending the service life of the device.
