The torque spring 6 is compressed and deformed, and the connecting block 8 moves into the groove 10. The hook 9 corresponds to the slot 11 and contacts the limiting block 14. The relative sliding is generated by the contacting slope, so that the limiting block 14 moves in the movable cavity 12. The return spring 13 is compressed and contracted, and the hook 9 and the limiting block 14 engage, thereby fixing the position of the fixing plate 5 and abutting against the connector to reinforce the connection and ensure normal use.

[0024] Connecting blocks 8 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the fixing plate 5, and hooks 9 are fixedly connected to the side of the connecting block 8 near the connecting interface 2.

[0025] The mounting bracket 3 has a groove 10 symmetrically opened on the side opposite to the control terminal body 1. The groove 10 is adapted to the connecting block 8. A slot 11 is opened on one side of the groove 10. A movable cavity 12 is opened at the end of the slot 11. A limit block 14 is slidably connected inside the movable cavity 12. The limit block 14 contacts and engages with the hook 9.

[0027] When disassembling the connector, press the pressing plate 15 inward and slide it inside the movable cavity 12. Due to the external force, the limiting block 14 moves inside the movable cavity 12, the limiting block 14 and the hook 9 separate, and the fixing plate 5 rebounds under the elastic force of the torque spring 6, so that the connector can be disassembled.

[0028] Multiple heat dissipation slots 16 are symmetrically provided on the upper and lower sides of the control terminal body 1. End caps 17 are symmetrically provided on the left and right sides of the control terminal body 1. Multiple heat dissipation holes 18 are provided inside the end caps 17.

When installing the connector onto the second connection interface 21, first insert the connector into the protective valve 25, and then insert it into the second connection interface 21. In this way, the protective valve 25 and the protective cover plate 23 protect the connection and reduce the adhesion of foreign objects or dust.

[0033] This utility model provides a plug-in I / O control terminal for industrial equipment, and its specific working principle is as follows:

[0034] In use, insert the connector into the connection interface 2, push the fixing plate 5 upward, and rotate the rotating rod 4 inside the mounting bracket 3. The torque spring 6 is compressed and deformed, and the connecting block 8 moves into the groove 10. The hook 9 corresponds to the slot 11 and contacts the limiting block 14. Relative sliding occurs through the contacting slope, causing the limiting block 14 to move within the movable cavity 12. The return spring 13 is compressed and contracted. After the connecting block 8 is fully moved into the groove 10, the elastic force of the return spring 13 causes the hook 9 and the limiting block 11 to move together. 4. Engage the mounting plate 5 to fix its position and abut against the connector to reinforce the connection. Align the mounting blocks 24 and threaded holes 22 on both sides of the protective cover 23 and fix the protective cover 23 to the outside of the second connection interface 21 with screws. When installing the connector onto the second connection interface 21, first insert the connector into the protective valve 25 and then into the second connection interface 21. The protective valve 25 and the protective cover 23 protect the connection and reduce the adhesion of foreign objects or dust.
