Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of plug connector technology, specifically to an Ethernet plug connector. Background Technology

[0002] Ethernet connectors are devices used in computer local area network (LAN) technology. They are widely used to realize data processing information flow. Due to their characteristics such as high data transmission rate, low electromagnetic radiation, and low power consumption in the transmission of various modules, they are widely used.

[0003] Current Ethernet connectors have high tolerance requirements for both the connector and the cable during assembly. If the connection area is loose, it can easily cause poor electrical connection between the connector and the cable, leading to overheating and damage at the interface, which can affect the normal operation of computer equipment.

[0004] In view of the problems exposed in the use of a current Ethernet plug connector, it is necessary to improve and optimize the structure of an Ethernet plug connector. Utility Model Content

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.

[0022] Example

[0023] like Figure 1-3As shown, the Ethernet plug connector of this utility model includes a connector housing 2, a pin seat 4, and a cable body 1. One end of the connector housing 2 can be inserted into the interior of the pin seat 4. The pin seat 4 has a plurality of connecting pins inside. A through-hole connecting groove 5 is opened inside the connector housing 2. An insulating column 6 is arranged inside the through-hole connecting groove 5. A shielding component is sleeved on the outer wall of the insulating column 6. A separable connecting core 14 is inserted into the interior of the insulating column 6. A plurality of stabilizing strips 19 are evenly arranged on the outer wall of the connecting core 14. An extension 15 is integrally formed at the end of the connecting core 14 away from the pin seat 4. The two sides of the extension 15 are bent upward to form locking tongues 16 for fixing and locking the cable core inside the cable body 1. A locking arc 17 for clamping the cable core is integrally formed at the end of the extension 15 away from the connecting core 14. In this technical solution, by setting the connecting core 14 as an open structure, the connecting pins inserted into it can be further locked.

[0024] Specifically, the upper surface of the insulating column 6 is provided with a groove, and a separable locking block 7 is fitted inside the groove. The top of the connecting core 14 is integrally provided with a pressure strip 20 by bending. A recessed groove 21 is provided at the top of the pressure strip 20. The bottom end of the locking block 7 is fitted into the recessed groove 21. In this embodiment, when the locking block 7 is fitted inside the insulating column 6, it is used to squeeze the connecting core 14.

[0025] Specifically, the connecting core 14 is a hollow, cylindrical component formed by winding sheet-like parts. Two insulating pads 18 are symmetrically fitted on the outer wall of the connecting core 14. The outer wall of the insulating pads 18 contacts the inner wall of the insulating column 6. Several pressure springs 22 are integrally formed inside the connecting core 14. The pressure springs 22 are arc-shaped sheet-like components. The pressure springs 22 are in close contact with the needles inside the needle holder 4. In this embodiment, three sets of pressure springs 22 are provided. In fact, multiple sets can be provided depending on the thickness of the cable.

[0026] Specifically, the shielding assembly includes an upper shielding cover 8 disposed on the insulating column 6 and a lower shielding cover 11 disposed below the insulating column 6. The upper shielding cover 8 wraps around the insulating column 6 and has locking tongues 9 extending outward on both sides. The lower shielding cover 11 wraps around the outside of the upper shielding cover 8, and has limiting grooves 12 on both outer sides of the lower shielding cover 11 that cooperate with the locking tongues 9. In this embodiment, the shielding assembly is made of metal components to further reduce external electromagnetic interference.

[0027] Specifically, the upper shielding cover 8 extends toward one end of the cable body 1 with an extension arc plate 10, and the lower shielding cover 11 extends toward one end of the cable body 1 with a locking plate 13 for locking the extension arc plate 10. The extension arc plate 10 and the locking plate 13 are wrapped around the outside of the insulating sheath of the cable body 1 to limit and lock the cable body 1. In this embodiment, the extension arc plate 10 is a C-shaped sheet component that matches the cable insulating sheath, and the locking plate 13 is bent from below and wrapped around the outer wall of the extension arc plate 10 to lock the cable insulating sheath.

[0028] Specifically, the connector housing 2 is also fitted with a separable male and female interlocking buckle 3 at the end opposite to the pin seat 4. A tongue is also provided at the end of the male and female interlocking buckle 3, and the end of the tongue is fitted and locked inside the pin seat 4. In this embodiment, if the connector housing 2 and the pin seat 4 are to be separated, it is only necessary to press the male and female interlocking buckle 3 with your hand.

[0029] Specifically, multiple connecting cores 14 are provided inside the insulating column 6. Several connecting cores 14 are arranged horizontally inside the insulating column 6. In this embodiment, the number of connecting cores 14 varies depending on the amount of data to be transmitted.

[0030] The working principle and usage process of this utility model are as follows: In this utility model, the connector has a connecting core 14 inside. By setting a pressure spring 22 inside the connecting core 14, it is easier for the connecting core 14 to make close contact with the pin inside the pin seat 4. By setting a stabilizing strip 19 outside the connecting core 14, the stability of the connecting core 14 inside the insulating column 6 can be further improved, and the connecting core 14 can be prevented from twisting inside the insulating column 6. The insulating pad 18 further improves the structural stability of the connecting core 14. A pressure strip 20 is set on the top of the connecting core 14. When the locking block 7 is inserted into the insulating column 6, its bottom end fits into the recessed groove 21. The bottom end of the locking block 7 presses the recessed groove 21, so that the pressure strip 20 presses the connecting core 14, so that the connecting core 14 and the pin keep in close contact, and avoid poor contact that could lead to excessive current.

[0031] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to further limit the present utility model. All equivalent changes made based on the description and drawings of the present utility model are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
