Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of connectors, specifically a low-voltage cable connector. Background Technology

[0002] Low-voltage signal cables refer to cables used for security communication, electrical equipment, and related low-voltage transmission applications. Wires and cables refer to materials used for power, communication, and related transmission applications. Connectors generally refer to electrical connectors, whose function is very simple: to transmit current or signals, bridging gaps in circuits or between isolated circuits to allow current to flow and enable the circuit to perform its intended function. Low-voltage cable connectors are primarily connected via plug-in connections.

[0003] Chinese Patent No. CN220822069U discloses a low-voltage cable connector designed to prevent detachment. The connector includes a connector, a low-voltage cable electrically connected to the right side of the connector, connecting blocks fixedly connected to the top and bottom of the connector, and clamping plates movably connected to the surfaces of the connecting blocks via pins. The clamping plates are horizontal to both sides of the connector. An extension plate is fixedly connected to the right side of the clamping plates. A conical sleeve is fitted onto the surface of the low-voltage cable, with its outer surface inclined and in contact with the surface of the extension plate. A ball bearing is slidably connected to the side of the extension plate away from the clamping plates, with its outer surface in contact with the surface of the conical sleeve. An elastic rubber pad is fixedly connected to the inner side of the clamping plates.

[0004] This invention increases the connection methods of cable connectors, preventing the connectors inserted into the device connector from loosening when subjected to vibration, thus avoiding interference with cable data transmission. However, the existing anti-detachment low-voltage cable connector has the following drawbacks during operation:

[0005] (1) The above device is not equipped with a protective mechanism. When pulling the cable too hard during the installation of conduit and wiring, the connector may hit the conduit opening or wall opening, causing the shell to crack. This will make it easier for moisture and dust to enter the connector. At the same time, it may cause the pins to bend and not be able to be inserted into the port, or break and cause a circuit break, resulting in no signal.

[0006] (2) The clamps of the above device are set on the left and right sides of the connector. When the connector vibrates up and down, the connector is prone to shaking and loosening. Utility Model Content

[0007] This utility model aims to provide a low-voltage cable connector, mainly to solve the problem that when cables are pulled too hard during conduit installation or wiring, the connector may hit the conduit opening or wall opening, causing the outer shell to crack. This allows moisture and dust to enter the connector more easily, and the pins may bend and fail to be inserted into the port, or break and cause a circuit break, resulting in signal failure.

[0008] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model provides the following technical solution:

[0009] A low-voltage cable connector includes a connector body on which a cable is fixedly mounted. The connector body is electrically connected to the cable. A limit component is provided on the connector body. A protective component is provided on the periphery of the connector body. An adjustment component is provided on the protective component.

[0010] The working principle and beneficial effects of this utility model:

[0011] 1. Working principle: The operator first removes the protective cover, then slides the protective component to release the limit component from its position. At this time, the operator inserts the connector body into the equipment interface. After the connector body is inserted into the equipment interface, the operator pushes the protective component, causing the protective component to move the limit component closer to the inner wall of the equipment interface, thereby firmly installing the device in the equipment interface.

[0012] 2. Beneficial effects:

[0013] (1) Existing technology prevents the connectors inserted into the device connector from becoming loose when subjected to vibration by increasing the connection method of the cable connector, thus avoiding the impact on cable data transmission. However, existing devices do not have protective mechanisms. When pulling the cable too hard during conduit installation or wiring, the connector may hit the conduit opening or wall opening, causing the shell to crack. This makes it easier for moisture and dust to enter the connector. At the same time, it may cause the pins to bend and not be able to be inserted into the port, or break and cause a circuit break, resulting in no signal. This solution sets up protective components and protective covers to protect the shell of the connector body and the pins inside the connector body, thereby preventing the connector body and the pins inside the connector body from being damaged by collision.

[0014] (2) This solution sets up a limiting component and an adjustment component, which enables the limiting component to limit the connector body in multiple directions, thereby increasing the stability of the limiting. The adjustment component can adjust the limiting component, making it convenient for personnel to install the connector body and avoiding the limiting component from hindering personnel from installing the connector body.

[0015] Preferably, the limiting component includes a plurality of trapezoidal grooves formed on the connector body. The plurality of trapezoidal grooves are respectively located on the top surface, bottom surface, left side wall, and right side wall of the connector body. A trapezoidal block is provided in the trapezoidal groove. A clamping block is fixedly connected to the end of the trapezoidal block away from the connector body. The clamping block passes through the trapezoidal groove and extends to the outside. By setting the trapezoidal groove, clamping block, and trapezoidal block, the trapezoidal block can limit the clamping block, thereby preventing the clamping block from falling out of the trapezoidal groove.

[0016] Preferably, the protective component includes a protective cover, with a plurality of sliding blocks fixedly connected inside the protective cover. The inner wall of the connector body has a plurality of sliding grooves that match the sliding blocks. The sliding blocks are located in the sliding grooves and are slidably connected to the inner wall of the corresponding sliding grooves. The protective cover has a plurality of clearance grooves, with clamping blocks slidably connected to the corresponding clearance grooves. The clamping blocks pass through the clearance grooves and extend to the outside. The protective cover can protect the connector body and prevent the connector body from being damaged or cracked when the device is bumped.

[0017] Preferably, a protective cover is provided on the side of the protective cover away from the cable, and a protective pad is fixedly connected inside the protective cover. The protective cover is engaged with the protective cover, and the protective pad is located inside the connector body. The protective cover can protect the connector body, thereby preventing the pins inside the connector body from contacting the outside and causing damage when the device is bumped or hit by the outside.

[0018] Preferably, the adjustment component includes a plurality of push blocks, which are located on the periphery of the protective cover and are fixedly connected to the periphery of the protective cover. The push blocks are arranged in pairs, with the two push blocks in the same group located on both sides of the corresponding clamping block. The top surface of the push block is inclined, and the push block abuts against the adjacent clamping block. The surface of the clamping block abutting against the push block is also inclined. When a person pushes the protective cover, the protective cover will move the push block, thereby causing the push block to push the clamping block to move away from the connector body.

[0019] Preferably, each of the push blocks is fixedly connected to a snap-fit ​​block on the side near the protective cover. The protective cover has a snap-fit ​​groove on its periphery, and the snap-fit ​​block is located in the corresponding snap-fit ​​groove. The snap-fit ​​block snaps into the corresponding snap-fit ​​groove. The snap-fit ​​block and the snap-fit ​​groove snap together so that the snap-fit ​​block and the push block can limit the movement between the protective cover and the protective cover, thereby preventing the protective cover from falling off due to insufficient friction between the protective cover and the protective cover, which would affect the protective effect.

[0020] Preferably, an anti-slip pad is fixedly connected to the side of the clamp block away from the connector body. 14 is made of rubber, and the anti-slip pad is made of rubber. The side of the anti-slip pad away from the clamp block has a rough surface, which increases the friction between the clamp block and the device interface. Attached Figure Description

[0027] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0028] like Figures 1-5As shown, a low-voltage cable connector includes a connector body 1, on which a cable 2 is fixedly mounted. The connector body 1 and the cable 2 are electrically connected. A limiting component is provided on the connector body 1, including a plurality of trapezoidal slots 3. The trapezoidal slots 3 are formed on the connector body 1, and are respectively located on the top surface, bottom surface, left side wall, and right side wall of the connector body 1. A trapezoidal block 5 is provided in the trapezoidal slot 3. A clamping block 4 is fixedly connected to the end of the trapezoidal block 5 away from the connector body 1. The clamping block 4 passes through the trapezoidal slot 3 and extends to the outside. A protective component is provided around the connector body 1, including a protective cover 6. A plurality of sliding blocks 7 are fixedly connected inside the protective cover 6. The inner wall of the connector body 1 has several sliding grooves 8 that match the sliding block 7. The sliding block 7 is located in the sliding groove 8 and is slidably connected to the inner wall of the corresponding sliding groove 8. The protective cover 6 has several clearance grooves 15. The clamping block 4 is slidably connected to the corresponding clearance groove 15. The clamping block 4 passes through the clearance groove 15 and extends to the outside. A protective cover 10 is provided on the side of the protective cover 6 away from the cable 2. A protective pad 11 is fixedly connected inside the protective cover 10. The protective cover 10 is snapped into the protective cover 6. The push block 9 is fixedly connected to the side of the protective cover 10. A snap-fit ​​groove 12 is provided on the periphery of the protective cover 10. The snap-fit ​​block 13 is located in the corresponding snap-fit ​​groove 12. 13 engages with the corresponding snap-fit ​​slot 12. The protective assembly is equipped with an adjustment component, which includes several push blocks 9. The push blocks 9 are located around the periphery of the protective cover 6 and are fixedly connected to the periphery of the protective cover 6. The push blocks 9 are arranged in pairs, with the two push blocks 9 in the same pair located on either side of the corresponding clamping block 4. The top surface of the push block 9 is inclined, and the push block 9 abuts against the adjacent clamping block 4. The surfaces of the clamping block 4 and the push block 9 that abut against each other are also inclined. By setting the trapezoidal groove 3, clamping block 4, and trapezoidal block 5, the trapezoidal block 5 can limit the clamping block 4, thereby preventing the clamping block 4 from falling out of the trapezoidal groove 3. The protective cover 6 can protect the connector body 1, preventing the connector body 1 from being bumped or knocked by the device. When the device is bumped, it may cause damage or cracking. The protective pad 11 is located inside the connector body 1. The protective cover 10 can protect the connector body 1, thereby preventing the pins inside the connector body 1 from contacting the outside and causing damage when the device is bumped with the outside. When the push block 9 is pushed by the personnel, the protective cover 6 will drive the push block 9 to move, thereby causing the push block 9 to push the clamping block 4 to move away from the connector body 1. The snap-fit ​​block 13 and the snap-fit ​​groove 12 can lock the protective cover 6 and the protective cover 10, thereby preventing the protective cover 10 from falling off due to insufficient friction between the protective cover 10 and the protective cover 6, which would affect the protective effect.

[0029] An anti-slip pad 14 is fixedly connected to the side of the clamp 4 away from the connector body 1. The anti-slip pad 14 is made of rubber and has a rough surface on the side away from the clamp 4, which increases the friction between the clamp 4 and the device interface.

[0030] As can be seen from the above, the specific embodiments of this utility model are as follows:

[0031] In use, the operator first moves the protective cover 6 away from the protective cover 10. The protective cover 6 moves the push block 9, which in turn moves the locking block 13. The locking block 13 moves out of the corresponding locking slot 12. At this point, the protective cover 10 is no longer locked to the protective cover 6, but the protective pad 11 remains locked to the inner wall of the connector body 1. The operator then pulls the protective cover 10 away from the connector body 1, thus removing the protective cover 10 from the protective cover 6. As the protective cover 10 moves, the protective pad 11 moves out of the connector body 1. As the operator moves the protective cover 6, the push block 9 moves, and the gap between the push block 9 and the clamping block 4 gradually decreases. As the connector body 1 is enlarged, the push block 9 no longer abuts against the clamping block 4, and the push block 9 removes its limiting effect on the clamping block 4. When the personnel insert the connector body 1 into the equipment interface, after insertion, the personnel push the protective cover 6 away from the cable 2, causing the protective cover 6 to move the push block 9 away from the cable 2. As the push block 9 moves, it abuts against the clamping block 4. As the push block 9 moves, the clamping block 4 gradually slides away from the protective cover 6, thereby causing the clamping block 4 to move the anti-slip pad 14 towards the inner wall of the equipment interface. When the anti-slip pad 14 abuts against the inner wall of the equipment interface, it achieves the effect of squeezing and fixing the connector body 1.
