Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of connectors, and in particular to a waterproof connector. Background Technology

[0002] A crystal head is a plastic connector that can be inserted in a fixed direction and automatically prevents it from falling out. It is commonly known as a "crystal head" and its professional term is RJ-45 connector.

[0003] The existing connection points between the RJ45 connector and the wires do not have a waterproof structure. In harsh environments, the poor waterproofing can easily lead to damage to the internal components of the RJ45 connector and signal transmission failure, thus affecting its stability and service life. Utility Model Content

[0004] In order to overcome the existing technical defects, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a waterproof connector to solve the above-mentioned technical problems.

[0005] The technical solution adopted by this utility model to solve the technical problem is as follows:

[0006] According to one aspect of this utility model, a waterproof connector is designed, comprising: a crystal head body, a wire, a housing, and a rotary locking buckle. The end of the wire is inserted into and connected to the crystal head body through a socket on the right end. The right end of the crystal head body is injection molded with a first injection molded body that seals and encapsulates the wire by blocking the socket. The right end of the crystal head body is placed in a mounting hole on the left end of the housing. The rotary locking buckle is rotatably engaged with the housing. A rotary locking block is provided on the inner sidewall of the rotary locking buckle.

[0007] By employing the above technical solution, a first injection-molded body is injected into the right end of the RJ45 connector body to seal the socket and encapsulate the wire. This prevents water and moisture from entering the RJ45 connector from the connection point between the wire and the connector, achieving a waterproof effect and thus improving the stability and service life of the RJ45 connector.

[0008] To better address the aforementioned technical deficiencies, this utility model also offers a superior technical solution:

[0009] In some embodiments, a second injection-molded body is injection-molded inside the right end of the housing to seal the right end, and a waterproof gasket is provided at the left end of the housing. Thus, a double seal can be achieved through the second injection-molded body, resulting in better waterproofing.

[0010] In some embodiments, a first protrusion and a second protrusion are circumferentially provided on the left end of the outer casing, and a rotating groove is formed between the first protrusion and the second protrusion. A rotating slider is circumferentially provided on the inner sidewall of the rotating locking buckle, and the rotating slider slides circumferentially in cooperation with the rotating groove.

[0011] In some embodiments, two second protrusions are circumferentially spaced apart, and the inner wall of the rotary locking buckle is provided with a limiting member located on the right side of the rotary slider. When the rotary locking buckle is rotated to move the limiting block from a state of contact with one of the second protrusions to a state of contact with the other second protrusion, the rotary locking buckle switches between a locked state and an unlocked state.

[0012] In some embodiments, the right end of the second protrusion is provided with a first inclined surface, and the left end of the rotating slider is provided with a second inclined surface.

[0013] In some embodiments, the inner sidewall of the rotary locking buckle is circumferentially provided with a stop block located to the right of the second protrusion.

[0014] In some embodiments, the system also includes a crystal head socket with a slot and a rotating connection groove communicating with the slot. When the crystal head body is inserted into the socket, and the rotating locking block passes through the slot into the rotating connection groove, the rotating locking buckle is rotated. When the limiting block moves from a state of contact with one of its second protrusions to a state of contact with another second protrusion, the connection between the crystal head socket and the housing is locked. At this time, both the crystal head body and the crystal head socket are in contact with the waterproof gasket. Thus, the waterproof gasket can achieve waterproofing at the connection point between the crystal head body and the crystal head socket, improving waterproof performance. Attached Figure Description

The crystal head socket 8 is provided with a slot 81 and a rotating connecting groove 82 communicating with the slot 81. There are two slots 81. The rotating connecting groove 82 is an annular groove or a two-section arc groove. When the rotating connecting groove 82 is a two-section arc groove, each slot 81 is connected to one end of a rotating connecting groove 82. When the crystal head body 1 is inserted into the socket on the crystal head socket 8, and the two rotating locking blocks 43 pass through the two slots 81 and enter the rotating connecting groove 82, the rotating locking buckle 4 is rotated. When the limiting block 42 on the rotating locking buckle 4 is in contact with one of its second protrusions 32 (e.g., ... Figure 6 (As shown) Move to a state of contact with another second protrusion 32 (as shown) Figure 7 When the connection between the crystal head socket 8 and the housing 3 is locked (as shown), both the crystal head body 1 and the crystal head socket 8 are in contact with the waterproof gasket 7. When the locking buckle 4 is rotated in the opposite direction, the rotating locking block 43 moves to correspond with the slot 81, and the crystal head socket 8 and the housing 3 are in the unlocked state, so that the crystal head socket 8 and the crystal head body 1 can be separated.
