Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of connectors, specifically to a multi-section waterproof connector end. Background Technology
[0002] In the field of connectors, especially in the connection scenarios of electronic devices such as display modules, the performance of connectors, as a key component, directly affects the stability and lifespan of the equipment. With the continuous improvement of the integration of electronic devices, higher requirements are being placed on the number of pins, size, and waterproof rating of connectors.
[0003] Currently, waterproof connectors on the market have many limitations in structural design: traditional connectors mostly use a single set of pins and a single waterproof sealing ring. If multi-pin connection requirements are to be met, the overall size of the connector often needs to be increased, making it difficult to fit into the narrow installation space inside the equipment, and the waterproof performance is also significantly reduced. In addition, the power components and signal pin layouts of existing connectors lack coordinated design, which often leads to mutual interference between signal transmission and power transmission.
[0004] Therefore, how to achieve high-density multi-pin arrangement in a limited space while ensuring strong maintainability and better waterproof performance has become a technical problem that urgently needs to be solved in this field. Utility Model Content

[0011] Preferably, the guide groove is separated from the plug unit on one side, and the guide post and the plug unit on one side are provided with a spacing that matches the separation.
[0012] Preferably, the two plug units are provided with a first spacer plate arranged in parallel, and the two plug units are provided with a second spacer plate arranged in parallel. When the plug unit is assembled downward with the plug unit, the bottom of the plug unit abuts against the second spacer plate, and there is a heat dissipation space between the first spacer plate and the second spacer plate.
[0013] Preferably, the plug assembly has a first waterproof gasket on its upper side and the socket assembly has a second waterproof gasket on its bottom side.

Example 1
[0026] A multi-section waterproof connector includes a plug assembly 100 and a socket assembly 200 arranged opposite each other. The plug assembly 100 includes a plurality of plug units 110, and the socket assembly 200 includes a plurality of insertion units 210. Each insertion unit 210 includes a plurality of pin sockets 320 and a power socket. Each plug unit 110 includes a plurality of pins 310 and a power pin 410. Each insertion unit 210 is provided with a sealing groove for installing a sealing ring 220, thereby achieving a waterproof seal between each insertion unit 210 and the plug unit 110.
[0027] This utility model uses a plug assembly 100 and a socket assembly 200 to form a top and bottom protective wrap around each PIN pin 310 and PIN seat 320. In this utility model, several sets of parallel distributed PIN pins 310 and PIN seats 320, as well as a power plug-in structure on one side, constitute a parallel integrated layout of multiple PIN positions. At the same time, several sealing rings 220 on several plug-in units 210 can correspondingly increase the waterproof performance of each section (one plug-in unit 210 and one plug unit 110), which is more waterproof than the traditional large waterproof ring wrap design. It is also a connection end structure after multiple low-power plugs are connected, ensuring the independent operation of power transmission and signal connection, and avoiding mutual interference of multiple connection signals when multiple PIN pins are connected.
[0028] The parallel distribution or arrangement of multiple plug units 210 and plug units 110 includes: being distributed in the same straight line along the length direction of the connection end; or being distributed in parallel along the length direction of the connection end.
[0029] The plug assembly 100 and the socket assembly 200 form a top and bottom protective enclosure for multiple sets of plug units 210 and plug units 110. Multiple sets of PIN pins 310 and PIN sockets 320, as well as power pins 410 and power sockets on one side are correspondingly provided inside the plug units 210 and plug units 110. Among them, reference Figure 1 This embodiment describes the specific design of two sections or two sets of plug units 110 and plug-in units 210. However, in this utility model, the connecting end can have a structure of three or more sections. The three or more sections can be formed by regularly arranging and combining each plug unit 110 and plug-in unit 210. like Figure 2 As shown, specifically, the plug assembly 100 includes two sets of plug units 110 and an integrally formed first substrate 111, and the socket assembly 200 includes two sets of plug-in units 210 and an integrally formed second substrate 211.
[0030] refer to Figure 2 , 3Furthermore, a positioning claw 330 is provided. The plug unit 110 includes a through hole and a PIN cover plate inside the through hole. The PIN cover plate has a plurality of first positioning holes 112 for mounting PIN pins 310. The plug unit 210 includes a base, and the base has a plurality of second positioning holes 212 corresponding to the first positioning holes 112. A first positioning groove is provided in the first positioning hole 112, and a second positioning groove is provided in the second positioning hole 212. The positioning claw 330 is installed between the first positioning groove and the second positioning groove. The positioning claw 330 includes a C-shaped body and clamping claws installed on both sides of the C-shaped body. The clamping claws deform inward to fix the PIN pin head or the bottom of the PIN seat.
[0031] refer to Figure 2 , 5 Furthermore, guide components are provided on both sides of the connection end, guide grooves 520 are provided on both sides of the first substrate 111, and guide posts 510 are provided on the second substrate 211. The guide grooves 520 are separated from the plug unit 110 on one side, and the guide posts 510 and the plug-in unit 210 on one side are provided with a spacing that matches the separation. This solution realizes the separate design of guide and PIN plug-in, forming a more precise plug-in structure. Even when there are multiple PIN positions, the guide components are only distributed on both sides, without affecting the compact layout in the middle.
[0032] refer to Figure 4 Furthermore, the two plug units 110 are provided with a first partition plate 120 arranged in parallel, and a second partition plate 230 arranged in parallel is provided between the two plug units 210, with a heat dissipation space between the first partition plate 120 and the second partition plate 230.
[0033] In this design, the two sets of plug units 110 and plug-in units 210 are physically separated and structurally reinforced by the first partition plate 120 and the second partition plate 230. The plug unit 110 abuts against the second partition plate 230, and the guide post 510 abuts against the guide groove 520 to ensure the precise alignment and assembly stability of the upper and lower components. The heat dissipation space in the middle provides a heat dissipation channel for the electrical connection areas of the PIN pin 310 and PIN socket 320, and the power pin 410 and power slot 420, effectively avoiding heat accumulation caused by dense arrangement. While ensuring the compact integration of multiple sets of PIN positions and power components, the stability and safety of the electrical connection are improved.
[0034] Furthermore, the plug assembly 100 is provided with a first waterproof gasket 130 on the upper side and a second waterproof gasket 140 on the bottom. The upper cover assembly and the first waterproof gasket 130, the lower cover assembly and the second waterproof gasket 140 are respectively fixed by screws.
[0035] By setting a first waterproof gasket 130 on the upper side of the plug assembly 100 and a second waterproof gasket 140 on the bottom, and fixing the upper cover assembly to the first waterproof gasket 130 and the lower cover assembly to the second waterproof gasket 140 with screws respectively, a two-way sealed protection structure is formed. In practical applications, taking the chassis connection as an example, the connection side of the socket and the chassis, that is, the outer side of the connection end, increases the waterproof performance between the connection end and the chassis through the second waterproof gasket 140, and increases the waterproof performance between the connection end and the cable structure through the first waterproof gasket 130. The two waterproof performances will further strengthen the external waterproof structure, and together with the several sealing rings 220 on the inner plug unit 210, they form a comprehensive waterproof structure that combines the inner and outer layers and is distributed in multiple units, so as to meet the IP68 waterproof requirements and compact layout of the chassis connection.
[0036] refer to Figure 5 Along the height direction of the connection end, when the plug assemblies 100 and 200 are fully engaged, the bottom plane of the plug unit 110 is fully engaged with the top plane of the plug unit 210. In the first positioning hole 112 and the second positioning hole 212: the PIN seat 320 is provided with a first conductive clip, and the PIN pin 310 is electrically connected to the first conductive clip; the power pin 410 enters the power slot 420 and is electrically connected to the second conductive clip arranged therewith; the guide post 510 extends into the guide groove 520; the two sealing rings 220 respectively press-fit the through holes in the two plug units 110; the first waterproof gasket 130 and the second waterproof gasket 140 are located on the upper and lower sides of the connection end respectively.
[0037] The technical features of the above embodiments can be combined in any way. For the sake of brevity, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above embodiments are described. However, as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features, they should be considered to be within the scope of this specification.
[0038] The above embodiments only illustrate several implementation methods of this utility model, and their descriptions are relatively specific and detailed, but they should not be construed as limiting the scope of the utility model patent. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various modifications and improvements without departing from the concept of this utility model, and these all fall within the protection scope of this utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of this utility model patent should be determined by the appended claims.
