Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of network connection cable technology, and in particular to a network connection cable connector structure. Background Technology

[0002] A network cable is a physical medium used to connect network devices (such as computers, routers, and switches) to enable data transmission. It plays a crucial role in building Local Area Networks (LANs), Wide Area Networks (WANs), and connecting to the Internet. When connecting network cables, connectors are provided at both ends of the cable for connection.

[0003] Existing network cable connectors typically use male and female plugs for connection, relying on the friction between the male and female connectors to secure the connection. However, during use, when faced with external tension, this friction can be overcome, causing the connectors to detach and the network cable to break, affecting its normal operation. Therefore, this paper proposes an improved network cable connector structure. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to at least solve one of the aforementioned technical defects.

[0005] Therefore, one objective of this utility model is to propose a network connection cable connector structure to solve the problems mentioned in the background art and overcome the shortcomings of the prior art.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, one embodiment of this utility model provides a network connector structure, including a first connector and a second connector. The first connector has a plurality of locking grooves. A sleeve frame is fixedly connected to the outer side of the second connector. A storage groove is provided inside the sleeve frame. An adjustment groove is provided on one side of the storage groove. A locking block is inserted into the storage groove. A pressure block with an inclined side is fixedly connected to the locking block. A spring is provided between the pressure block and the inner wall of the storage groove. A pressing plate that can push the pressure block is provided in the adjustment groove. An adjustment plate is fixedly connected to the pressing plate. A lever connecting all the adjustment plates is fixedly connected to the outer side of the adjustment plate.

[0007] Preferably, in any of the above solutions, the locking groove adopts an arc-shaped structure, and a plurality of the locking grooves are evenly arranged circumferentially on the first connector.

[0008] The above technical solution involves two connectors: a first connector and a second connector, which provide connection conditions for two network cable segments respectively. These two connectors are plugged together to connect the two network cable segments. A locking groove is provided on the first connector, which, in conjunction with a locking block, locks the first connector. Several locking grooves are evenly arranged circumferentially, and together with several locking blocks, multiple positions of the first connector can be locked, improving the stability of the locking effect.

[0009] Preferably, in any of the above solutions, the frame adopts a cylindrical structure, and the number of the storage slots is the same as the number of the locking slots.

[0010] The above technical solution employs a frame that provides the necessary space for the storage and adjustment slots. The frame has a cylindrical structure to accommodate the shapes of the first and second connectors. A storage slot is created within the frame, providing installation and storage space for the locking block, pressure block, and spring.

[0011] Preferably, in any of the above solutions, a plurality of the storage slots and the locking slots are provided in a one-to-one correspondence, and the adjustment slot adopts an arc-shaped structure.

[0012] The above technical solution employs a one-to-one correspondence between the storage slots and the locking slots, allowing multiple locking blocks to engage with several locking slots to lock the first connector. The adjustment slot provides installation space for structures such as the extrusion plate and the adjustment plate.

[0013] Preferably, in any of the above solutions, the inner side of the locking block is inclined, a guide rod is fixedly connected in the storage groove, and the pressure block is sleeved on the guide rod.

[0014] The above technical solution allows the locking block to engage with the locking groove, thus securing and locking the first connector. The inner surface of the locking block is beveled, allowing it to automatically move into the receiving groove under the pressure of the first connector, compressing the spring. When the locking groove reaches the position of the locking block, the spring releases its force, pushing the locking block into the locking groove and locking the first connector. A guide rod is installed within the receiving groove to constrain the pressure block and prevent it from displacing in other directions.

[0015] Preferably, in any of the above embodiments, the spring is sleeved on the outside of the guide rod inside the receiving groove, and the corners of the contact surfaces between the extrusion plate and the pressure block are chamfered.

[0016] The above technical solution employs a spring that provides elastic support for the locking block and the pressure block. The pressing plate applies pressure to the pressure block, causing it to move and compress the spring, which in turn moves the locking block, disengaging it from the locking groove and unlocking the first connector.

[0017] Preferably, in any of the above schemes, the length of the control plate is greater than the depth of the control groove, and the dial plate adopts a ring structure.

[0018] The above technical solution employs a control plate to drive the pressing plate and adjust its position for unlocking. A lever is installed on the outside of the control plate; moving the lever simultaneously moves multiple control plates, thereby controlling multiple locking blocks and unlocking multiple points on the first connector.

[0019] Compared with the prior art, the advantages and beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0020] 1. This network connector structure, through the inclusion of a locking groove, a sleeve frame, a storage groove, an adjustment groove, a locking block, a pressure block, a spring, and a compression plate and adjustment plate, allows for seamless connection between the first and second connectors. A toggle switch moves several adjustment plates, which in turn move the compression plate. The compression plate pushes the pressure block into the storage groove, compressing the spring and fully engaging the locking block. The first connector is then inserted into the sleeve frame, connecting it to the second connector. Releasing the toggle switch releases the spring's elasticity, pushing the locking block into the locking groove and locking the first connector. Multiple locking blocks from different directions effectively ensure the stability of the network connection.

[0021] 2. This network connector structure features several evenly arranged circumferential locking slots, which, together with several locking blocks, can lock the first connector at multiple positions, improving the stability of the locking effect. The inner surface of the locking blocks is beveled, allowing them to automatically move into the receiving slot under the pressure of the first connector, compressing the spring and greatly improving the ease of connection. A guide rod is installed in the receiving slot to constrain the pressure block and prevent it from displacing in other directions.

Examples of these embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals denote the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions throughout. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and intended to explain this utility model, and should not be construed as limiting this utility model.

[0029] In this utility model, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "installation," "connection," "linking," and "fixing," etc., should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; and they can refer to the internal connection of two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model according to the specific circumstances.

[0030] like Figures 1-3 As shown, this utility model includes a first connector 1 and a second connector 2. The first connector 1 has several locking grooves 3. A sleeve frame 4 is fixedly connected to the outer side of the second connector 2. A storage groove 5 is provided inside the sleeve frame 4. An adjustment groove 6 is provided on one side of the storage groove 5. A locking block 7 is inserted into the storage groove 5. A pressure block 8 with an inclined side is fixedly connected to the locking block 7. A spring 9 is provided between the pressure block 8 and the inner wall of the storage groove 5. A pressing plate 10 that can push the pressure block 8 is provided in the adjustment groove 6. An adjustment plate 11 is fixedly connected to the pressing plate 10. A lever 12 that connects all the adjustment plates 11 together is fixedly connected to the outer side of the adjustment plate 11.

[0031] Example 1: The locking groove 3 adopts an arc-shaped structure, and several locking grooves 3 are evenly arranged circumferentially on the first connector 1. The first connector 1 and the second connector 2 provide connection conditions for the two network connection lines respectively. They are plugged together to realize the connection of the two network connection lines. The locking groove 3 is opened on the first connector 1, and the locking groove 3 can cooperate with the locking block 7 to lock the first connector 1. Several locking grooves 3 are evenly arranged circumferentially, and with several locking blocks 7, multiple positions of the first connector 1 can be locked, which helps to improve the stability of the locking effect of the first connector 1. The sleeve frame 4 adopts a cylindrical structure, and the number of storage slots 5 is the same as the number of locking grooves 3. The sleeve frame 4 provides conditions for the opening of storage slots 5 and adjustment slots 6. The sleeve frame 4 adopts a cylindrical structure to fit the shape of the first connector 1 and the second connector 2. Storage slots 5 are opened in the sleeve frame 4, and storage slots 5 provide installation and storage space for locking blocks 7, pressure blocks 8 and springs 9.

[0032] Example 2: Several storage slots 5 and locking slots 3 are arranged in a one-to-one correspondence, and the regulating slot 6 adopts an arc-shaped structure. The storage slots 5 and locking slots 3 are arranged in a one-to-one correspondence, so that multiple locking blocks 7 cooperate with several locking slots 3 to lock the first connector 1. The regulating slot 6 provides installation space for structures such as the extrusion plate 10 and the regulating plate 11. The inner side of the locking block 7 is beveled, and a guide rod is fixedly connected in the storage slot 5, with the pressure block 8 sleeved on the guide rod. The locking block 7 can be inserted into the locking slot 3 to fix and lock the first connector 1. The beveled inner side of the locking block 7 allows it to automatically move into the storage slot 5 under the pressure of the first connector 1, and the spring 9 is compressed. When the locking slot 3 moves to the position of the locking block 7, the spring 9 releases its elastic force, pushing the locking block 7 into the locking slot 3 to lock the first connector 1. A guide rod is installed in the storage groove 5. The guide rod can constrain the pressure block 8 and prevent the pressure block 8 from displacing in other directions.

[0033] Example 3: Spring 9 is sleeved on the outside of the guide rod inside the receiving groove 5. The corners of the contact surfaces between the pressing plate 10 and the pressure block 8 are chamfered. Spring 9 provides elastic support for the locking block 7 and the pressure block 8. Pressing plate 10 applies pressure to the pressure block 8, causing it to move, thus squeezing spring 9 and moving the locking block 7, disengaging it from the locking groove 3, thereby unlocking the first connector 1. The length of the control plate 11 is greater than the depth of the control groove 6, and the lever 12 adopts a ring structure. The control plate 11 is used to drive the pressing plate 10 and adjust its position for unlocking. A lever 12 is provided on the outside of the control plate 11. Moving the lever 12 can simultaneously drive multiple control plates 11 to move, thereby controlling multiple locking blocks 7 and unlocking multiple points of the first connector 1.

[0034] The working principle of this utility model is as follows:

[0035] S1. When connecting the first connector 1 and the second connector 2, the toggle plate 12 drives several control plates 11 to move. The control plates 11 drive the pressing plate 10 to move. The pressing plate 10 pushes the pressure block 8 to move into the storage groove 5. The spring 9 is compressed, and the locking block 7 moves completely into the storage groove 5.

[0036] S2. Insert the first connector 1 into the sleeve 4 so that it is connected to the second connector 2;

[0037] S3. Release the lever 12, the spring 9 releases its elastic force, pushes the locking block 7 into the locking groove 3, and locks the first connector 1.

[0038] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following advantages:

[0039] 1. This network connector structure, through the inclusion of a locking groove 3, a sleeve frame 4, a storage groove 5, an adjustment groove 6, a locking block 7, a pressure block 8, a spring 9, a pressing plate 10, and an adjustment plate 11, allows for seamless connection between the first connector 1 and the second connector 2. A toggle switch 12 moves several adjustment plates 11, which in turn move the pressing plate 10. The pressing plate 10 pushes the pressure block 8 into the storage groove 5, compressing the spring 9 and causing the locking block 7 to fully move into the storage groove 5. The first connector 1 is then inserted into the sleeve frame 4, connecting it to the second connector 2. Releasing the toggle switch 12 releases the spring 9, pushing the locking block 7 into the locking groove 3, thus locking the first connector 1. The multiple locking blocks 7 locking the first connector 1 from different directions effectively ensures the stability of the network connection.

[0040] 2. The network connector structure features several evenly arranged locking slots 3 around its circumference, which, together with several locking blocks 7, can lock the first connector 1 at multiple positions, improving the stability of the locking effect. The inner surface of the locking block 7 is beveled, allowing it to automatically move into the receiving slot 5 under the pressure of the first connector 1, compressing the spring 9 and greatly improving the convenience of connection. A guide rod is provided in the receiving slot 5 to constrain the pressure block 8 and prevent it from displacing in other directions.
