Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of connector technology, specifically to a metal housing for a D-sub connector. Background Technology

[0002] D-sub connectors are data transmission devices commonly used to connect computers, communication equipment, industrial control systems, and other devices. They offer advantages such as convenient connection and stable signal transmission, making them widely used in various applications.

[0003] Existing D-Sub connectors have multiple sets of signal wires inside their housings. The metal housing of the D-Sub connector lacks cable securing components, meaning that terminals on the signal wires may loosen or become damaged when the connector is moved. Furthermore, multiple sets of signal wires are prone to tangling, making subsequent maintenance difficult. The tangled wires also hinder heat dissipation, potentially shortening the connector's lifespan.

[0004] To address the aforementioned technical problems, this application proposes a metal housing for a D-sub connector. Utility Model Content

[0023] As attached Figure 1 and attached Figure 2 As shown, a metal housing for a D-sub connector includes a lower housing 1 and an upper housing 2. Multiple sets of threaded cylinders 3 are installed inside the lower housing 1. A threaded shaft 4 passes through the upper housing 2 and is threaded into the threaded cylinders 3 to fix the lower housing 1 and the upper housing 2. Wire limiting pads 13 are installed on the inner side of the tail ends of the lower housing 1 and the upper housing 2. Multiple sets of connecting wires are covered with insulating sleeves and clamped between two sets of wire limiting pads 13, thereby clamping and limiting the wires.

[0024] To prevent multiple sets of connecting wires from tangling and to improve heat dissipation from the connecting wires, as shown in the attached document... Figure 1 Appendix Figure 3 and attached Figure 4 As shown, a wire harness arrangement assembly 8 is rotatably installed inside the lower housing 1. The wire harness arrangement assembly 8 includes a fan-shaped support plate 801 and multiple sets of mesh partitions 802. Connecting plates 803 are respectively installed on both sides of the fan-shaped support plate 801. Insert rods 804 and springs 805 are installed on the outer side of the connecting plates 803. The springs 805 are sleeved on the outer side of the insert rods 804, and a limiting ring 806 is installed at the end. A limiting groove 9 is provided on the inner wall of the tail of the lower housing 1. Inserting the insert rod 804 and the limiting ring 806 on one side into the limiting groove 9 and compressing the spring 805, and then inserting the insert rod 804 and the limiting ring 806 on the other side into the limiting groove 9, the position of the insert rod 804 in the limiting groove 9 is adjusted by the rebound force of the spring 805, and the fan-shaped support plate 801 is rotatably connected to the lower housing 1, which facilitates the installation and removal of the wire harness arrangement assembly 8.

[0025] Multiple sets of perforated partitions 802 are arranged in a fan shape and installed on the upper side of the fan-shaped support plate 801.
