Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of water pump controller connection technology, specifically a water pump controller that can be installed quickly. Background Technology

[0002] As a key component for regulating the operating status and electrical linkage of water pump systems, pump controllers are widely used in agricultural irrigation, municipal drainage, and industrial fluid transportation. During actual installation and maintenance, pump controllers typically require both mechanical and electrical connections to the pump body. Therefore, the structural performance of the connection device directly affects the system's assembly efficiency, operational stability, and ease of maintenance.

[0003] In existing technologies, the connection between the controller and the water pump body is mostly achieved using the following two methods:

[0004] One method involves mechanical connection via threaded connection or screw fixing, supplemented by independent wires or plug-in connectors for electrical connection. This structure provides stable connection, but suffers from problems such as cumbersome assembly steps, complex wiring operations, and limited plug-in sequence. Especially in environments with multiple interfaces or limited space, the installation efficiency is low, and the connection points are susceptible to loosening or corrosion due to vibration, moisture, and other operating conditions during long-term operation, affecting the stability of conductivity.

[0005] Secondly, while an integrated plug structure is used for electrical connection, conventional plugs are mostly snap-fit ​​or compression-type, lacking a stable mechanical locking mechanism, which can easily lead to signal loss due to insufficient insertion or poor contact. In addition, some electrodes use an exposed sheet structure, which is difficult to maintain stable conductivity in high humidity environments, and also makes it difficult to provide structural-level rapid positioning and sealing protection functions.

[0006] In summary, the existing technology still has the following significant shortcomings in the integration of quick plug-in, mechanical locking and electrical conduction of water pump controller: (1) complicated installation, many steps and low operation efficiency; (2) lack of reliable plug-in locking structure and poor connection stability; (3) simple electrode contact structure and poor environmental resistance; (4) lack of linkage control mechanism between plug-in and electrical conduction, which restricts the development of structural integration.

[0007] Therefore, there is an urgent need to provide a water pump controller connection device that is compact, has efficient plug-in connection, synchronous mechanical locking and electrical conduction functions, and is adaptable to complex environments, so as to improve assembly efficiency and system reliability and meet the comprehensive needs of modern intelligent pump devices for rapid disassembly and high-performance connection.

[0009] Therefore, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows: a quick-installation water pump controller, including a water pump body, a controller, a female connector and a male connector, wherein the female connector is arranged on the surface of the water pump body and the male connector is disposed on the bottom surface of the controller, for realizing mechanical positioning and electrical connection between the controller and the water pump body.

[0010] In a preferred embodiment, the male connector is further configured such that: the male connector includes a sliding sleeve rod and a plug rod, the top end of the plug rod is slidably sleeved on the inner side of the sliding sleeve rod, a spring is provided inside the sliding sleeve rod to generate axial elastic force on the plug rod, the bottom end of the plug rod is fixedly connected to a plug cone head, and a plurality of electrode slip rings are provided on the outer surface of the plug cone head.

[0011] Specifically, this structure can achieve automatic alignment and reset during the insertion process, and form an electrical path with the subsequent sliding contact of the electrode tongue, effectively improving the ease of installation and the reliability of conduction.

[0012] In a preferred embodiment, the female connector is further configured as follows: the female connector includes a fixed socket, a linkage rod, and several linkage rings. The linkage rings are arranged inside the fixed socket. Several tops and elastic poles are slidably installed inside the fixed socket. The tops are connected to the electrode tongues by top springs. A sliding pin is provided on the outside of the tops. The sliding pin is slidably sleeved in the sliding guide groove on the surface of the linkage ring. The linkage ring is connected to the linkage rod.

[0013] Specifically, this structure can achieve insertion locking by pressing the top head with the insertion cone during insertion, and can release the lock by driving the linkage ring to deflect synchronously through the linkage rod, ensuring that the disassembly and assembly process is safe and controllable and the structural linkage is reliable.

[0014] In a preferred embodiment, the controller is further configured such that: a sleeve is provided on the bottom surface of the controller, and a plug-in socket is provided on the surface of the controller, wherein the sleeve is inserted into the inner wall of the plug-in socket in an interference fit manner.

[0015] Specifically, this structure achieves sealing and positioning during insertion, enhancing the water and dust resistance of the male and female connectors, making it suitable for humid, vibrating, or highly polluted environments.

[0016] In a preferred example, the configuration is further as follows: several linkage rings are arranged in a straight line inside the fixed socket, the top head and the elastic pole are divided into multiple groups, and the top head of each group is evenly distributed on the surface of the linkage ring in a circumferential direction.

[0017] Specifically, this clustered and evenly distributed design can improve the structural stress balance and motion coordination, which is conducive to multi-point synchronous clamping or release operations and improves the overall assembly stability.

[0018] In a preferred embodiment, the sliding guide groove is further configured such that: the sliding guide groove has an asymmetrical arc-shaped structure, the distances from the two ends of the sliding guide groove to the center of the linkage ring are unequal, and the linkage rod is set outside the fixed socket to drive the linkage ring to deflect synchronously.

[0019] Specifically, this structural linkage mechanism can precisely control the radial sliding of the mandrel during insertion or release, forming a controllable locking / unlocking path and improving the consistency and responsiveness of mechanical actions.

[0020] In a preferred example, the electrode tongue is further configured such that it has a bevel and electrode patches are arranged thereon, with each electrode patch corresponding to an electrode slip ring disposed on the surface of the insert cone.

[0021] Specifically, during the insertion of the plug into the fixed socket, the electrode tongue is pressed against the electrode slip ring in a controlled manner, realizing automatic positioning and sliding conduction of the electrode during the insertion process, forming an electrical connection path between the controller and the pump body, which has good dynamic conduction and contact stability.

[0022] In a preferred example, the top head, the top spring, and the elastic pole are all arranged in a radially sliding manner. The top head is connected to the surface of the electrode tongue through the top spring, which is used to reset and limit the electrode tongue.

[0023] Specifically, this structure ensures consistent action and smooth return during the insertion process, prevents plug dislocation or offset, and guarantees electrode fit accuracy and mechanical self-locking performance.

[0024] In a preferred example, the flexible pole is further configured to include a flexible telescopic rod and a spherical electrode point, which is electrically connected to the controller output.

[0025] Specifically, the spherical electrode structure adapts to insertion and removal angle errors, and the elastic telescopic rod can maintain continuous contact pressure, improving the overall electrical connection stability and vibration resistance.

[0026] In summary, this utility model constructs a water pump controller connection device that combines a sliding plug-in structure, a linkage locking mechanism, a conductive slip ring structure, and a sealed assembly structure. This device features rapid installation, automatic electrical connection, high protection, and reusable disassembly capabilities, and is widely applicable to pump control systems, electrically controlled valve groups, or intelligent fluid equipment platforms that require high reliability.

[0027] The beneficial effects achieved by this utility model are as follows:

[0028] 1. In this utility model, the male and female connectors achieve quick insertion and mechanical locking through a linkage structure of the insertion rod, insertion cone, top head and sliding guide groove. No threaded rotation or buckle positioning is required during the insertion process. It has the advantages of simple operation, reliable positioning and stable locking, which effectively improves the assembly efficiency and ease of use of the controller and water pump body.

[0039] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to specific embodiments and accompanying drawings. It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features of the present utility model can be combined with each other.

[0040] It should be understood that these descriptions are merely exemplary and not intended to limit the scope of this invention.

[0041] The following describes, with reference to the accompanying drawings, some embodiments of the present invention, providing a quick-installation water pump controller.

[0042] Combination Figures 1-5 As shown, the present invention provides a quick-installation water pump controller, including a water pump body 100, a controller 110, and a female connector 200 arranged on the surface of the water pump body 100 and a male connector 300 arranged on the bottom surface of the controller 110.

[0043] The male connector 300 includes a sliding sleeve rod 310 and an insertion rod 320. The top end of the insertion rod 320 is slidably sleeved on the inner side of the sliding sleeve rod 310. A spring 311 is provided on the inner side of the sliding sleeve rod 310, and one end of the spring 311 is connected to the top end of the insertion rod 320. A cone head 321 is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the insertion rod 320. The surface of the cone head 321 is provided with several electrode slip rings 322 for sliding contact and conduction with the electrode tongue 250.

[0044] The female connector 200 includes a fixed socket 210, a connecting rod 220, and several linkage rings 230. Multiple linkage rings 230 are arranged inside the fixed socket 210, and each linkage ring 230 has several sliding guide grooves 231 on its surface. Several top heads 240 and elastic poles 260 are slidably installed inside the fixed socket 210. One end of each top head 240 is connected to a top spring 242, and the other end of the top spring 242 is connected to the surface of the electrode tongue 250. A sliding pin 241 is provided on the surface of the top head 240, and the sliding pin 241 slidably engages with the sliding guide groove 231 on the surface of the linkage ring 230, enabling the top head 240 to slide radially as the sliding guide groove 231 deflects.

[0045] Several linkage rings 230 are connected to the linkage rod 220 through their outer surfaces. The linkage rod 220 is located on the outside of the fixed socket 210. By deflecting the linkage rod 220, the synchronous deflection control of all linkage rings 230 can be realized, thereby driving multiple top heads 240 to simultaneously achieve radial sliding, and thus controlling the electrode tongue 250 to achieve the change of locking or unlocking state.

[0046] A sleeve 111 is fixedly installed on the bottom surface of the controller 110. A plug-in socket for installing the controller 110 is provided on the surface of the controller 110. The sleeve 111 is interference-fitted onto the surface of the plug-in socket to achieve sealed positioning at the connection between the water pump body 100 and the female head 200, thereby improving the sealing performance and environmental adaptability of the plug-in part.

[0047] Multiple linkage rings 230 are arranged in a straight line within the fixed socket 210. The top head 240 and the elastic pole 260 are divided into multiple groups. The top head 240 is evenly distributed along the circumferential direction of the linkage ring 230 surface and slides on the outer surface of the linkage ring 230. In actual use, when the linkage rod 220 drives the linkage ring 230 to deflect, each group of top heads 240 retracts radially along the sliding guide groove 231, releasing its abutting force on the insertion cone head 321, unlocking the engagement state between the male head 300 and the female head 200, making it easy to disassemble the controller 110 from the water pump body 100.

[0048] Preferably, the guide groove 231 is arranged in an asymmetrical arc shape, with unequal distances from its two ends to the centers of the two ends of the linkage ring 230. Through this geometric design, when the linkage ring 230 rotates under the drive of the linkage rod 220, the sliding pin 241 slides within the guide groove 231, causing the top head 240 to undergo controllable radial movement, ultimately achieving precise linkage of locking or releasing actions.

[0049] Furthermore, one side of the electrode tongue 250 has a beveled structure, and the beveled surface is provided with several electrode patches, corresponding to the electrode slip ring 322 provided on the surface of the insertion cone 321. During the process of the controller 110 being inserted into the water pump body 100, the insertion rod 320 is inserted into the fixed socket 210, and the surface of the insertion cone 321 abuts against the top head 240 to achieve mechanical locking; at the same time, the electrode patches on the electrode tongue 250 form sliding contact with the electrode slip ring 322 under the guidance of the bevel, realizing the conduction connection of electrical signals from the controller 110 to the water pump body 100.

[0050] The top head 240, the top spring 242, and the elastic pole 260 are all radially slidably installed. The top head 240 is connected to the electrode tongue 250 through the top spring 242, which realizes the limit control of the movement of the electrode tongue 250 under elastic preload, ensuring the positioning reliability and connection safety during the insertion process.

[0051] The elastic pole 260 includes an elastic telescopic rod and an electrode point disposed at its end. The electrode point has a spherical structure and can automatically adapt to the insertion posture error to achieve dynamic electrical contact connection. The elastic pole 260 and the output terminal of the controller 110 form an electrical connection path to ensure stable transmission of control signals or power supply lines.

[0052] In summary, through the above structural design, this utility model achieves multi-functional integration of quick plug-in, automatic mechanical locking, synchronous electrical conduction, and convenient disassembly of the water pump controller, and is suitable for high-requirement occasions in intelligent water pump or electric control pump systems where quick replacement, protective sealing, and stable connection are required.

[0053] Working principle and usage process of this utility model:

[0054] This invention achieves integrated assembly of mechanical locking and electrical conduction through a quick-connect structure between the pump body and the controller. Its working principle is based on the linkage and positioning locking between the female and male connectors, and a dynamic contact connection is achieved through a top spring and electrode assembly, offering advantages such as quick installation, stable connection, and strong detachability.

[0055] In use, after aligning the controller 110 with the water pump body 100 in the insertion direction, the male connector 300 at the bottom of the controller 110 is inserted into the female connector 200 on the surface of the water pump body 100. During this process, the insertion rod 320 slides along the sliding sleeve rod 310 into the fixed socket 210. Under the action of the spring 311, the insertion rod 320 is pressed forward, and its bottom cone head 321 is gradually inserted and abuts against the top head 240.

[0056] During the insertion process, the top head 240 slides radially along the sliding guide groove 231. The sliding guide groove 231 is a non-equidistant arc structure. When the insertion cone head 321 is gradually pressed in, the top head 240 retracts radially with the cooperation of the top spring 242. At the same time, the traction electrode tongue 250 is attached to the surface of the insertion cone head 321 to achieve preliminary mechanical positioning.

[0057] Furthermore, the surface of the cone head 321 is provided with multiple electrode slip rings 322. When the electrode tongue 250 is in contact, the electrode patch on its surface slides and conducts with the electrode slip rings 322, realizing the transmission of electrical signals from the controller 110 to the electrode points inside the water pump body 100, forming a complete electrical circuit. At the same time, the elastic pole 260 is composed of multiple elastic telescopic rods and spherical electrode points, which can dynamically contact under the action of the controller 110 output signal to achieve adaptive electrical coupling.

[0058] When it is necessary to disassemble the controller 110, the external linkage rod 220 can be operated to deflect it, causing multiple linkage rings 230 to rotate synchronously. The sliding guide groove 231 on the linkage ring 230 drives the sliding pin 241 to move, thereby causing the top head 240 to retract and the top spring 242 to release its elasticity, causing the electrode tongue 250 to disengage from the surface of the insertion cone head 321, thereby releasing the locking relationship between the male head 300 and the female head 200, and realizing the rapid separation of the controller 110 from the water pump body 100.

[0059] To improve structural sealing, the bottom surface of the controller 110 is provided with a sleeve 111, which is used to form an interference fit with the plug during the insertion process, thereby improving the sealing and protection performance of the insertion point and adapting to complex working conditions such as moisture or vibration.

[0060] In summary, this utility model achieves integrated, rapid connection, stable conduction, and reliable disconnection between the water pump controller and the water pump body through the coordinated structure of sliding sleeve insertion, linkage locking, top spring limiting, and electrode sliding contact. It has a compact structure, rapid response, and is easy to install and maintain, and is suitable for various automated pump control scenarios such as intelligent water pumps and electro-hydraulic systems.
