Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of dustproof flip-top connector technology, and in particular to a connector with a dustproof flip-top protective structure. Background Technology

[0002] In today's world of widespread electronic devices and communication technologies, connectors, as key components for connecting different devices or modules, are of paramount importance in terms of performance and reliability. However, the sockets of traditional connectors are usually exposed to the air, making them susceptible to contaminants such as dust and liquids, leading to problems such as poor contact and short circuits, which affect the normal operation of the equipment.

[0003] A typical connector with a dustproof flip cover consists of a connector head, a mating head, and a pin. During use, the connector head and mating head are mechanically connected and electrically connected through the pin to ensure stable signal or current transmission. When separation is required, the pin is opened and the mating head is pulled out of the connector head.

[0004] However, in some existing devices, the dust cover is not installed securely enough and is prone to falling off or shifting during use. This instability not only reduces the dustproof effect but also causes the connector to be accidentally exposed during use, increasing the risk of damage. Therefore, a connector with a dustproof flip cover protection structure is proposed to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0005] To overcome the above shortcomings, this utility model provides a connector with a dustproof flip cover protection structure, which aims to improve the problem that some devices in the prior art cannot provide a good dustproof effect.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0007] A connector with a dustproof flip-top protective structure includes a connector head and a mating head. The connector head is provided with a dustproof mechanism on its exterior and an opening and closing mechanism on its exterior. The mating head is slidably connected to the interior of the connector head.

[0008] The dustproof mechanism includes a connecting ring, which is fixedly connected to the outside of the connector. Rotating columns are rotatably connected to both sides of the outer surface of the connecting ring. Two dustproof shells are rotatably connected to both sides of the outer surface of the two rotating columns. An extrusion assembly is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the two dustproof shells, i.e., the outer side away from the connector. A sliding frame is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the extrusion assembly. A support ring is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the connector. A connecting block is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the sliding frame. A top plate is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the connecting block. An eccentric wheel is rotatably connected to the outer surface of the two dustproof shells. A force-bearing plate is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the eccentric wheel.

[0009] As a further description of the above technical solution:

[0010] The extrusion assembly includes two guide pillars, the two guide pillars are fixedly connected to the top of the two dustproof shells, and springs are respectively sleeved on the outside of the two dustproof shells. The bottom of the sliding frame is fixedly connected to the outside of the two springs.

[0011] As a further description of the above technical solution:

[0012] The opening and closing mechanism includes two fixed blocks. The two fixed blocks are externally fixedly connected to the outside of the connector, that is, to the outside side near the connector. A folding plate is rotatably connected to the adjacent outer sides of the two fixed blocks.

[0013] As a further description of the above technical solution:

[0014] An inclined block is fixedly connected to the outside of the folding plate, that is, the side near the connector, and a sealing ring is fixedly connected to the outside of the connector, that is, the side near the connector.

[0015] As a further description of the above technical solution:

[0017] As a further description of the above technical solution:

[0018] When the sliding frame slides, it can push the top plate to contact the force plate, causing the eccentric wheel to be generated, and then engaging with the outside of the support ring, that is, the side away from the connector.

[0019] As a further description of the above technical solution:

[0020] The two dust covers are fitted with retaining rings on the outside, i.e., on the side away from the connector, so that they can be engaged with the outside of the support ring.

[0021] This utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0022] 1. In this utility model, the flip-top design of the dust cover effectively prevents dust and other impurities from entering the connection parts, significantly extending the service life; the manual operation of the sliding frame realizes the opening and closing of the dust cover, which is simple to operate and has a stable and reliable structure. At the same time, the locking design of the eccentric wheel and the support ring, as well as the further fixation of the retaining ring, ensure that the dust cover is stable and reliable in the closed state and will not be accidentally opened due to external force or vibration, thus ensuring the continuous effectiveness of dust protection.

[0023] 2.

[0031] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. 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.

[0032] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 The present invention provides an embodiment of a connector with a dustproof flip cover protection structure, including a connector 1 and a mating head 2. The connector 1 is provided with a dustproof mechanism 3 on its outside and an opening and closing mechanism 4 on its outside. The mating head 2 is externally slidably connected to the inside of the connector 1.

[0033] The dustproof mechanism 3 includes a connecting ring 33, designed to provide good support. The connecting ring 33 is fixedly connected to the outside of the connector 1. Rotating columns 31 are rotatably connected to both sides of the connecting ring 33, designed to provide good rotation. Two dustproof shells 32 are rotatably connected to both sides of the two rotating columns 31, designed to provide good protection. The rotation of the rotating columns 31 causes the dustproof shells 32 to flip over and protect the connection between the connector 1 and the mating joint 2. A compression assembly is fixedly connected to the outside of the two dustproof shells 32, i.e., the side away from the connector 1. The compression assembly includes two guide columns 35, designed to provide good guidance. The two guide columns 35 are fixedly connected to the top of the two dustproof shells 32. Springs 36 are respectively sleeved on the outside of the two dustproof shells 32. The design can generate compression when pressure is applied, and the compression force itself will generate extrusion. The bottom of the sliding frame 37 is fixedly connected to the outside of the two springs 36. The sliding frame 37 is fixedly connected to the outside of the compression assembly, designed to provide good support. The compression will cause the sliding frame 37 to slide. The external fixed connection of the connector 2 is a support ring 34, whose design provides good engagement capability. The external fixed connection of the sliding frame 37 is a connecting block 38, whose design provides good connection capability, allowing the sliding frame 37 to drive the connecting block 38 to slide along with it. The external fixed connection of the connecting block 38 is a top plate 39, whose design provides good compression capability. The two dustproof shells 32 are externally rotatably connected to an eccentric wheel 311, which is designed to rotate non-centeredly outside the dustproof shell 32. The external fixed connection of 11 is a force-bearing plate 310, which is designed to provide good pressure resistance. When the sliding frame 37 slides, it can push the top plate 39 to contact the force-bearing plate 310, so that the eccentric wheel 311 is generated and then engaged on the outside of the support ring 34, that is, on the side away from the connector 1. The two dustproof shells 32 are equipped with retaining rings on the outside of the support ring 34, that is, on the side away from the connector 1, so that they can be engaged on the outside of the support ring 34. The spring 36 squeezes the sliding frame 37 to facilitate the sliding of the top plate 39, so that the top plate 39 contacts the force-bearing plate 310.

[0034] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 5The opening and closing mechanism 4 includes two fixed blocks 41, designed to provide good support. The two fixed blocks 41 are externally fixedly connected to the outside of the connector 1, i.e., the side near the outside of the mating joint 2. A folding plate 42 is rotatably connected to the adjacent sides of the two fixed blocks 41, designed to provide good bending ability. At the same time, the side of the fixed blocks 41 near the connector 1 is at an upward angle. An inclined block 43 is fixedly connected to the outside of the folding plate 42, i.e., the side near the mating joint 2, designed to provide good locking ability. When the fixed blocks 41 are pressed, the fixed blocks 41 rotate, which can drive... The inclined block 43 generates a prying motion, and as it rotates, it squeezes the connector 2, making it easy to quickly separate the connector 2 from the connector 1. A sealing ring 45 is fixedly connected to the outside of the connector 2, that is, the side near the connector 1. Its design can provide a good sealing effect. A mating sealing ring 44 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the connector 1, that is, the side near the fixing block 41. The connection between the sealing ring 45 and the mating sealing ring 44 can easily seal the connection between the connector 1 and the connector 2, and the outside of the sealing ring 45 can slide into the inside of the mating sealing ring 44.

[0035] Working Principle: When using this connector, first insert the mating head 2 into the connector 1. At this time, the dust cover 32 is open, exposing the connection part between the connector 1 and the mating head 2 for insertion. After insertion, the connection part needs to be protected against dust. Then, apply pressure to the sliding frame 37 manually. Due to the elasticity of the spring 36, it will compress under pressure and also generate a reverse elastic force. This elastic force will push the sliding frame 37 to slide along the direction of the guide post 35. As the sliding frame 37 slides, the connecting block 38 will move along with the sliding frame 37. The movement of the connecting block 38 will cause the top plate 39 to move closer to the force plate 310. When the top plate 39 contacts the force plate 310, the force plate 310 will be pushed by the top plate 39, and the eccentric wheel 311 will rotate after being pushed. The non-central rotation characteristic of the eccentric wheel 311 allows it to engage with the support ring 34 during rotation. When the eccentric wheel 311 engages with the outside of the support ring 34, i.e., the side away from the connector 1, the dust cover 32 will rotate under the action of the rotating column 31, thereby covering the connection between the connector 1 and the mating head 2, providing dust protection. Simultaneously, the retaining ring will further engage with the outside of the support ring 34, ensuring that the dust cover 32 remains closed and preventing accidental opening. In this way, the entire connection area of ​​the connector is effectively protected, preventing the entry of dust and other impurities, and ensuring the connection performance and service life of the connector.

[0036] When using this connector, first insert the mating connector 2 into the connector 1. At this time, the placement sealing ring 45 will contact the mating sealing ring 44 and gradually slide into the interior of the mating sealing ring 44. Due to the sealing design of the placement sealing ring 45 and the mating sealing ring 44, the two fit tightly together to form a good sealing effect, preventing dust and liquid impurities from entering the connection part and protecting the connection performance of the connector. When it is necessary to separate the mating connector 2 and the connector 1, the operator presses the fixing block 41. Since the side of the fixing block 41 near the connector 1 is at an upward angle, when pressed, the fixing block 41 will rotate around its connection point with the connector 1. This rotation will cause the folding plate 42 to rotate together, and the inclined block 43 on the folding plate 42 will pry accordingly. During the rotation, the inclined block 43 will exert a squeezing effect on the mating connector 2. This squeezing effect will loosen the connection between the mating connector 2 and the connector 1, thus facilitating the quick separation of the mating connector 2 from the connector 1. During the separation process, the placement sealing ring 45 will slide out from the interior of the mating sealing ring 44, releasing the seal. This design makes the separation of connector 2 and connector 1 simple and quick, while also ensuring sealing performance and ease of operation during connection and separation.

[0037] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Although the present utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
