Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of electronic connectors, specifically to a flipping device for electronic connectors with an anti-detachment structure. Background Technology

[0002] An electronic connector is provided with a flipping device that has an anti-dislodgement function. This flipping device is designed to ensure that the connector will not accidentally fall off during use, thereby improving the reliability and security of the connection. Specifically, the flipping device can maintain a stable state when the connector is inserted or pulled out through a series of precise mechanical structures and locking mechanisms, preventing accidental dislodgement caused by external forces or vibrations.

[0003] Utility model CN113895704B discloses a flipping device and method for electronic connectors with an anti-detachment structure, belonging to the technical field of flipping devices. It includes a base, a motor, a support, a turntable, and an anti-detachment protection mechanism. The top of the base is fixedly connected to the support, and a rotating shaft is rotatably connected to the center of the support. A motor is fixedly installed at the top of the base near the rotating shaft, and the motor's output end is fixedly connected to the rotating shaft. The end of the rotating shaft away from the motor passes through the support and is fixedly connected to the turntable. Several housings are fixedly arranged on the side of the turntable away from the support, and the housings are evenly distributed along the circumference of the turntable. The anti-detachment protection mechanism is installed on each housing. By setting the anti-detachment protection mechanism, the device achieves the effect of preventing the electronic connector from detaching and protecting it when flipping, thus expanding the device's application range.

[0004] In the aforementioned application, through the cooperation of the motor and the turntable assembly, if any component fails, such as the limit electric telescopic column jamming, the air rod seal failing, or the connecting rod loosening, it will directly affect the overall function of the anti-fall-off mechanism. For example, a failure of the electric telescopic column will cause the airbag to fail to inflate and the airtight door to fail to close, ultimately resulting in the complete loss of anti-fall-off protection during the flipping process. Therefore, we propose a flipping device with an anti-fall-off structure for electronic connectors. Utility Model Content

[0005] This invention proposes a flipping device with an anti-detachment structure for electronic connectors.

[0006] The technical solution of this utility model is as follows: A flipping device with an anti-detachment structure for an electronic connector includes: a housing, a protective cover snapped onto the side of the housing, a ventilation grille opened on the side of the housing, a base bolted to the top of the housing, a cooling fan fixedly connected to the top of the base, and a flipping mechanism provided inside the housing. The flipping mechanism includes a fixed base, the bottom of which is fixedly connected to the inner bottom wall of the box body. A motor is fixedly connected to the side of the fixed base. A rotating rod is fixedly connected to the output shaft of the motor. A first pulley is fixedly connected to the circumferential surface of the rotating rod. A positioning seat passes through the circumferential surface of the rotating rod. The bottom of the positioning seat is fixedly connected to the inner bottom wall of the box body. A rotating rod is fixedly connected to the end of the rotating rod away from the first pulley. A support shaft is fixedly connected to the side of the rotating rod. A spring is fixedly connected to the side of the rotating rod. The end of the spring away from the rotating rod is fixedly connected to the side of the box.

[0007] One end of the support shaft is fixedly connected to a placement box, and a magnetic push plate is slidably connected to the inner wall of the placement box. The placement box provides a dedicated space for the electronic connector, facilitating centralized positioning. The magnetic push plate magnetically attracts the electronic connector, enhancing the fixing effect and preventing it from falling off during flipping. Furthermore, the sliding design of the magnetic push plate allows for automatic pushing or resetting when connectors need to be placed or removed, improving operational convenience.

[0008] A clamping motor is fixedly connected to the top of the placement box, and a transmission structure is fixedly connected to the output end of the clamping motor. The transmission structure drives the clamping block to slide against the inner wall of the placement box. The clamping motor drives the clamping block to slide through the transmission structure, which can realize the automatic clamping of the electronic connectors inside the placement box, further enhancing the fixing effect. This effectively prevents the connectors from falling off during flipping or moving.

[0009] The inner wall of the placement box is slidably connected to a second clamping block. Two placement boxes are provided, symmetrically arranged along the vertical central axis of the rotating rod. The second clamping block cooperates with the clamping block to form a bidirectional clamping structure, which can fix the electronic connector from both sides, improving the stability and reliability of the clamping.

[0010] A ventilation grille cleaning device is provided on the side of the box body. The ventilation grille cleaning device includes a support base. The side of the support base is fixedly connected to the side of the box body. A transmission rod is rotatably connected to the side of the support base. A second pulley is fixedly connected to the circumferential surface of the transmission rod. A belt is provided on the circumferential surface of the second pulley. A bevel gear one is fixedly connected to the end of the transmission rod away from the support base. A screw support base is fixedly connected to the side of the box body. A reciprocating screw is rotatably connected through the top of the screw support base. A bevel gear two is fixedly connected to one end of the reciprocating screw. A threaded sleeve is threadedly connected to the circumferential surface of the reciprocating screw. A pusher plate is fixedly connected to the side of the threaded sleeve. A guide rod is slidably connected to the end of the pusher plate away from the threaded sleeve. The side of the guide rod is fixedly connected to the side of the box body.

[0011] The second pulley is connected to the circumference of the first pulley via a belt drive, and the first bevel gear meshes with the second bevel gear. Through the transmission cooperation of the belt and bevel gears, the power of the flipping mechanism simultaneously drives the ventilation grille cleaning device, realizing the linkage of multiple mechanisms from a single power source.

[0012] The side of the ventilation grille is located on the displacement trajectory of the sweeping plate, and a second support is fixedly connected to the side of the box body. The ventilation grille's location on the sweeping plate's displacement trajectory ensures the sweeping plate can accurately act on the ventilation grille, and the bottom of the sweeping plate has a flexible brush to guarantee cleaning effectiveness. The second support provides auxiliary support to the transmission rod, enhancing its operational stability.

[0013] The transmission rod passes through and is rotatably connected to the side of the second support base, and a conveyor platform is provided on the side of the housing. The transmission rod's passage through and rotatable connection to the second support base further enhances its support strength and operational stability, ensuring precise power transmission. The conveyor platform facilitates automatic loading and unloading of electronic connectors, achieving automated connection of the connector processing process and reducing manual intervention.

[0014] The working principle and beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: 1. In this utility model, the rotating rod in the flipping mechanism is connected to the placement box through the support shaft. The rotation of the rotating rod directly drives the placement box to rotate around the support shaft, realizing the flipping action of the electronic connector. The magnetic push plate inside the placement box initially fixes the connector with magnetic force. Subsequently, the clamping structure clamping block and the second clamping block further enhance the fixation, ensuring that the connector does not fall off during flipping. The fully automatic flipping is achieved by motor drive, without manual intervention, which greatly reduces labor costs and improves the work efficiency of batch processing of electronic connectors. The whole mechanism is integrated into the box, occupying little space, and can be adapted to electronic connectors of different sizes by adjusting the clamping force, making it widely applicable.

[0015] 2. The ventilation grille cleaning device of this utility model uses a reciprocating screw rotating on a screw support seat to drive the threaded sleeve to reciprocate linearly along the screw, thereby pushing the sweeping plate to slide back and forth along the guide rod to thoroughly clean the surface of the ventilation grille, removing dust and debris. There is no need to manually clean the ventilation grille, reducing labor costs and avoiding a decrease in heat dissipation efficiency due to neglecting to clean. The sweeping plate moves back and forth along the ventilation grille trajectory to thoroughly remove surface accumulations, ensuring smooth ventilation and maintaining a good heat dissipation environment inside the box.

[0016] Of course, any product implementing this utility model does not necessarily need to achieve all of the advantages described above at the same time. Attached Figure Description

[0019] The technical solutions of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the embodiments of this utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this utility model.

[0020] Example 1 like Figures 1-5 As shown, this embodiment proposes a flipping device with an anti-detachment structure for electronic connectors, including a housing 1, a protective cover 2 snapped onto the side of the housing 1, a ventilation grille 3 opened on the side of the housing 1, a base 4 bolted to the top of the housing 1, a cooling fan 9 fixedly connected to the top of the base 4, and a flipping mechanism 5 provided inside the housing 1. The flipping mechanism 5 includes a fixed base 51, the bottom of which is fixedly connected to the inner bottom wall of the box body 1. A motor 52 is fixedly connected to the side of the fixed base 51. A rotating rod 53 is fixedly connected to the output shaft of the motor 52. A first pulley 54 is fixedly connected to the circumferential surface of the rotating rod 53. A positioning seat 55 passes through the circumferential surface of the rotating rod 53. The bottom of the positioning seat 55 is fixedly connected to the inner bottom wall of the box body 1. A rotating rod 56 is fixedly connected to the end of the rotating rod 53 away from the first pulley 54. A support shaft 57 is fixedly connected to the side of the rotating rod 56. A spring 58 is fixedly connected to the side of the rotating rod 56. The end of the spring 58 away from the rotating rod 56 is fixedly connected to the side of the placement box 59.

[0021] A placement box 59 is fixedly connected to one end of the support shaft 57, and a magnetic push plate 510 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the placement box 59. The placement box 59 provides a dedicated placement space for electronic connectors, facilitating centralized positioning. The magnetic push plate 510 magnetically attracts the electronic connectors, enhancing the fixing effect of the connectors and preventing them from falling off during flipping. At the same time, the sliding design of the magnetic push plate 510 can automatically push or reset when connectors need to be placed or removed, improving the convenience of operation.

[0022] A clamping motor 8 is fixedly connected to the top of the placement box 59. A transmission structure is fixedly connected to the output end of the clamping motor 8, and this transmission structure drives the clamping block 11 to slide against the inner wall of the placement box 59. The clamping motor 8 drives the clamping block 11 to slide via the transmission structure, achieving automatic clamping of the electronic connector inside the placement box 59 and further enhancing the fixing effect. This effectively prevents the connector from falling off during flipping or movement.

[0023] A second clamping block 10 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the placement box 59. There are two placement boxes 59, which are symmetrical to each other along the vertical central axis of the rotating rod 56. The second clamping block 10 cooperates with the clamping block 11 to form a two-way clamping structure, which can fix the electronic connector from both sides, improving the stability and reliability of the clamping.

[0024] In this embodiment, when the electronic connector needs to be flipped, the motor 52 on the fixed base 51 starts, and its output shaft outputs torque to drive the rotating rod 53 to rotate around its own axis; the positioning base 55 provides radial support for the rotating rod 53, ensuring that the rotating rod 53 maintains axial stability during rotation and avoids radial wobbling, and rotates synchronously with the rotating rod 53, thereby driving the rotating rod 56 to perform circumferential motion around the axis of the rotating rod 53; the rotating rod 56 is rigidly connected to the placement box 59 through the support shaft 57, and the rotational motion of the rotating rod 56 is converted into the flipping motion of the placement box 59 around the axis of the support shaft 57, realizing the flipping action of the electronic connector inside the placement box 59, and the circumferential surface of the support shaft 57 During the flipping process of the placement box 59, the spring 58 absorbs the impact force generated by the flipping through its own elastic deformation, forming a buffer protection for the placement box 59 and the internal electronic connector, reducing the impact of vibration on the precision structure of the connector; at the same time, the magnetic push plate 510 on the inner side wall of the placement box 59 magnetically attracts the electronic connector, initially limiting the displacement of the connector in the placement box 59, and together with the subsequent clamping structure, achieves double anti-drop fixation, ensuring the stability of the connector position during the flipping process. The flipping mechanism 5, through the drive of the motor 52, the cooperation of multi-stage transmission and buffer limit structure, realizes the stable flipping of the electronic connector, and at the same time has the functions of anti-drop and buffer protection.

[0025] Example 2 like Figures 1-5 As shown, based on the same concept as Embodiment 1 above, this embodiment also proposes that a ventilation grille cleaning device 6 be provided on the side of the box body 1. The ventilation grille cleaning device 6 includes a support base 61, the side of the support base 61 is fixedly connected to the side of the box body 1, a transmission rod 62 is rotatably connected to the side of the support base 61, a second pulley 63 is fixedly connected to the circumferential surface of the transmission rod 62, a belt 64 is provided on the circumferential surface of the second pulley 63, a bevel gear 65 is fixedly connected to the end of the transmission rod 62 away from the support base 61, a screw support base 66 is fixedly connected to the side of the box body 1, a reciprocating screw 67 is rotatably connected through the top of the screw support base 66, a bevel gear 68 is fixedly connected to one end of the reciprocating screw 67, a threaded sleeve 69 is threadedly connected to the circumferential surface of the reciprocating screw 67, a pusher plate 610 is fixedly connected to the side of the threaded sleeve 69, a guide rod 611 is slidably connected to the end of the pusher plate 610 away from the threaded sleeve 69, and the side of the guide rod 611 is fixedly connected to the side of the box body 1.

[0026] The second pulley 63 is connected to the circumferential surface of the first pulley 54 via a belt 64, and the first bevel gear 65 meshes with the second bevel gear 68 for transmission. Through the transmission cooperation of the belt and the bevel gears, the power of the flipping mechanism simultaneously drives the ventilation grille cleaning device 6, realizing the linkage of multiple mechanisms from a single power source.

[0027] The side of the ventilation grille 3 is located on the displacement trajectory of the sweeping plate 610, and a second support base 612 is fixedly connected to the side of the housing 1. The ventilation grille 3's location on the displacement trajectory of the sweeping plate 610 ensures that the sweeping plate 610 can accurately act on the ventilation grille 3, and the bottom of the sweeping plate 610 has a flexible brush to ensure effective cleaning. The second support base 612 provides auxiliary support to the transmission rod 62, enhancing the stability of its operation.

[0028] The transmission rod 62 passes through and is rotatably connected to the side of the second support base 612, and a conveyor table 7 is provided on the side of the housing 1. The transmission rod 62's passage and rotatable connection to the second support base 612 further enhances its support strength and operational stability, ensuring accurate power transmission. The conveyor table 7 facilitates automatic loading and unloading of electronic connectors, achieving automated connection of the connector processing process and reducing manual intervention.

[0029] In this embodiment, in the flipping mechanism 5, when the rotating rod 53 rotates, it drives the first pulley 54, which is fixed on its circumference, to rotate synchronously. The first pulley 54 drives the second pulley 63 to rotate through the belt 64, thereby driving the transmission rod 62, which is fixedly connected to the second pulley 63, to rotate around its own axis. The support base 61 and the second support base 612 form bidirectional radial support for the transmission rod 62, ensuring the stability of its axis during rotation and avoiding radial offset. The first bevel gear 65 meshes with the second bevel gear 68, which is fixed at one end of the reciprocating screw 67, to convert the horizontal rotational motion of the transmission rod 62 into the vertical rotational motion of the reciprocating screw 67. The reciprocating screw 67 passes through and is rotatably connected to the screw support base 66. The screw support base 66 provides stable support for the reciprocating screw 67, ensuring its rotational accuracy. When the screw 67 rotates, the threaded sleeve 69 is guided by the thread to make reciprocating linear motion along the axis of the reciprocating screw 67; the pusher plate 610 fixed on the side of the threaded sleeve 69 moves synchronously with the threaded sleeve 69, and the end of the pusher plate 610 away from the threaded sleeve 69 is slidably connected to the guide rod 611. The guide rod 611 forms a limiting guide for the movement trajectory of the pusher plate 610, ensuring that it always fits against the surface of the ventilation grille 3. During the reciprocating motion, the pusher plate 610 cleans the dust and debris attached to the surface of the ventilation grille 3, realizing the automatic cleaning of the ventilation grille 3 and ensuring its smooth ventilation. The ventilation grille cleaning device 6 is driven by the belt 64, the bevel gear reversal and the reciprocating screw 67, realizing the power coordination with the flipping mechanism 5, and can complete the automatic and comprehensive cleaning of the ventilation grille 3 without the need for an additional power source.

[0030] The above are merely preferred embodiments of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model shall be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
