Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of connector installation, and in particular to a connector wire harness auxiliary alignment device. Background Technology

[0002] In fields such as electronic equipment, automotive manufacturing, and industrial automation, connectors are key components for achieving electrical connections, and their assembly quality directly affects the stability and safety of the system. Especially in complex wiring harness systems, the mating accuracy requirements between connectors are high. Inaccurate alignment can lead to mating difficulties, or even terminal deformation, poor contact, or damage to components.

[0003] Currently, in the actual assembly process of connector harnesses, operators mainly rely on visual observation or manual adjustment for alignment. Especially in application scenarios such as multi-core and high-density connectors, due to the large number of pins and small spacing, manual alignment is difficult and problems such as misalignment and tilting are prone to occur.

[0004] To address the above issues, it is necessary to design a connector harness auxiliary alignment device. Utility Model Content

[0005] In order to overcome the shortcomings of the actual assembly process of connector wire harnesses, where operators mainly rely on visual observation or manual adjustment for alignment, which can easily lead to misalignment when there are many pins, this utility model provides a connector wire harness auxiliary alignment device.

[0006] The technical solution of this utility model is as follows: a connector wire harness auxiliary alignment device, including a bracket, a first guide rod, a limiting plate, a first spring and a tapered guide plate. Two first guide rods are installed on both sides of the bracket. A limiting plate is slidably provided between the two first guide rods on the same side. A first spring is sleeved on the first guide rod. The two ends of the first spring are respectively connected to the bracket and the limiting plate. A tapered guide plate is installed on one side of the limiting plate.

[0007] Furthermore, it also includes a second guide rod, a clamping plate, and a second spring. Two second guide rods are installed on both sides of the bracket. The second guide rods are installed on the side away from the tapered guide plate. The second guide rods are adjacent to the first guide rods. A clamping plate is slidably provided between the two second guide rods on the same side. A second spring is sleeved on the second guide rod. The two ends of the second spring are respectively connected to the bracket and the clamping plate.

[0008] Furthermore, it also includes a limit block, which is installed on the side of the bracket away from the tapered guide plate.

[0009] Furthermore, it also includes a screw, a limiting rod, and a sliding plate. The bottom of the bracket is rotatably equipped with a screw, and the bottom of the bracket is fixedly installed with a limiting rod. The limiting rod is on the left side of the screw, and a sliding plate is slidably provided between the screw and the limiting rod.

[0010] Furthermore, it also includes rubber pads, with rubber pads provided on the side of the sliding plate and the bracket that are close to each other.

[0011] Furthermore, the top of the clamp is angled.

[0012] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: 1. By setting a tapered guide plate, pushing the socket toward the pin will cause the two tapered guide plates to slide to both sides, causing the first spring to stretch. The socket will connect with the pin along the direction of the tapered guide plate. The socket will continue to push toward the pin until the socket is fully connected with the pin, thus achieving the effect of assisting in the docking of the connector.

[0013] 2. By setting up clamps, pressing the connector pins downwards will cause the connector pins to move downwards along the angle of the clamps, causing the clamps to move to both sides. As the clamps move to both sides, the second spring will deform. When the connector pins are stuck between the clamps on both sides, the second spring will move the clamps in the same direction, so that the clamps will clamp the connector pins tightly.

Detailed Implementation

[0019] The technical solution of this utility model will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0020] Example: A connector harness auxiliary alignment device, such as Figures 1-4As shown, the device includes a bracket 1, a first guide rod 2, a limiting plate 3, a first spring 4, a conical guide plate 5, a second guide rod 6, a clamping plate 7, a second spring 8, a limiting block 9, a screw 10, a limiting rod 11, a sliding plate 12, and a rubber pad 13. Two first guide rods 2 are installed on both sides of the bracket 1. A limiting plate 3 is slidably positioned between two first guide rods 2 on the same side. A first spring 4 is sleeved on each first guide rod 2, and the first spring 4 can continuously return the limiting plate 3 to a similar direction. The two ends of the first spring 4 are respectively connected to the bracket 1 and the limiting plate 3. A conical guide plate 5 is installed on one side of the limiting plate 3, allowing the socket to move along the direction of the conical guide plate 5 to align with the pin. Two second guide rods 6 are installed on both sides of the bracket 1, with the second guide rod 6 installed on the side away from the conical guide plate 5. The second guide rod 6 is adjacent to the first guide rod 2. Two first guide rods 6 on the same side are slidably positioned between two first guide rods 2 on the same side. The clamping plate 7 is slidably disposed between the two guide rods 6. The second spring 8 is sleeved on the second guide rod 6. The two ends of the second spring 8 are respectively connected to the bracket 1 and the clamping plate 7. The second spring 8 can continuously move the two clamping plates 7 in a similar direction, so that the two clamping plates 7 can clamp the pin. The top of the clamping plate 7 is at an angle. The limiting block 9 is installed on the side of the bracket 1 away from the tapered guide plate 5. The limiting block 9 can lock the pin when it is connected to the socket, preventing the pin from being pushed out of the bracket 1. The screw 10 is rotatably disposed at the bottom of the bracket 1. The limiting rod 11 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the bracket 1. The limiting rod 11 is on the left side of the screw 10. The sliding plate 12 is slidably disposed between the screw 10 and the limiting rod 11. Rotating the screw 10 can lock the table between the bracket 1 and the sliding plate 12. The rubber pad 13 is disposed on the side of the sliding plate 12 and the side of the bracket 1 that are close to each other.

[0021] When this device is needed, first rotate the screw 10. The rotation of the screw 10 causes the sliding plate 12 to move downward along the direction of the limiting rod 11. Then, the gap formed between the bracket 1 and the sliding plate 12 is engaged with the edge of the table. Next, rotate the screw 10 in the opposite direction, causing the sliding plate 12 to move upward along the direction of the limiting rod 11 until the sliding plate 12 presses against the table. The rubber pad 13 increases the friction between the contact surfaces, securing the entire device on the table. Then, press the connector pins downward. The connector pins will move downward along the angle of the clamping plate 7, causing both the limiting plate 3 and the clamping plate 7 to move to both sides. When the limiting plate 3 and the clamping plate 7 move to both sides, the first spring 4 and the second spring 8 will deform. When the connector pin is stuck between the limiting plate 3 and the clamping plate 7 on both sides, the limiting plate 3 and the clamping plate 7 will move in the same direction under the action of the first spring 4 and the second spring 8, so that the limiting plate 3 and the clamping plate 7 clamp the connector pin. Then, the connector socket is aligned with the pin. Pushing the socket towards the pin will cause the two tapered guide plates 5 to slide to both sides, so that the first spring 4 is stretched. The socket continues to push towards the pin until the socket is fully engaged with the pin. The limiting block 9 can prevent the pin from being pushed out of the bracket 1.

[0022] The technical principles of the present invention have been described above with reference to specific embodiments. These descriptions are merely for explaining the principles of the present invention and should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of the present invention in any way. Based on this explanation, those skilled in the art can conceive of other specific embodiments of the present invention without creative effort, and these embodiments will all fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.
