[0003] When existing new energy connectors are used with connector plugs, the connector plug is inserted into the new energy connector and the two are fixed together by a snap-fit connection to ensure the normal transmission of electrical circuits.
[0004] However, when the connector plug is inserted into the new energy connector, the shell of the new energy connector cannot extend or retract, and the shell of the new energy connector can affect the viewing of whether the connector plug terminals are connected to the new energy connector, thus affecting the connection between the two. Utility Model Content
[0005] This utility model aims to at least partially solve one of the technical problems in the related art.
[0006] Therefore, this utility model proposes a connector plug and a new energy connector. The protective cover is moved to the right, causing the slider to slide along the slide rod and compress the second spring. After the terminal is inserted and the connection is completed, the protective cover is released, and the second spring drives it to move to the left. The protective cover squeezes the buckle to be housed in the groove and compresses the first spring. When the locking groove moves to the top of the buckle, the first spring pushes the buckle into the groove to lock it in place. The protective cover protects the terminal connection throughout the process, preventing damage from external forces or intrusion of foreign objects, and improving the reliability and safety of the connection.
[0007] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model proposes a connector plug and a new energy connector, including a connector plug body.

Detailed Implementation
[0018] The embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below, examples of which are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals denote the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions throughout. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and intended to explain the present invention, and should not be construed as limiting the present invention. Rather, the embodiments of the present invention include all variations, modifications, and equivalents falling within the spirit and scope of the appended claims.
[0019] The following description, in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, describes an embodiment of the present invention: a connector plug and a new energy connector.
[0020] like Figures 1-6As shown, an embodiment of the present invention provides a connector plug and a new energy connector, which may include a connector plug body 100. The right end of the connector plug body 100 is provided with a connector body 200 for cooperating with the connector plug body 100. The top end of the connector plug body 100 is provided with a locking device 300 for telescopic movement. The connector body 200 is provided with a protective device 400 for moving left and right and cooperating with the locking device 300 to protect the connector plug body 100 and the connector body 200. The protective device 400 includes a protective component 410 fitted on the connector body 200 for moving left and right. The connector body 200 is provided with a reset component 420 for driving the protective component 410 closer to the connector plug body 100 and the connector body 200.
[0021] In one embodiment of this utility model, such as Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the connector plug body 100 is provided with a plug terminal 103 for mating with the connector body 200. The left end of the connector plug body 100 is provided with a transmission line 102 for connecting with the plug terminal 103. Therefore, the signal received by the plug terminal 103 from the connector body 200 can be transmitted out using the transmission line 102. The top end of the connector plug body 100 is provided with a groove 101 for placing the locking device 300.
[0022] Furthermore, the locking device 300 includes a latch 310 movably connected to the groove 101 for engaging with the protective component 410. The left end of the latch 310 is connected to the wall of the groove 101 via a pin. Therefore, when the protective component 410 approaches the connector plug body 100, the latch 310 is compressed and can be retracted into the groove 101. A spring 320 is fixedly installed at the bottom end of the latch 310 for driving the latch 310 to engage with the protective component 410. There are two springs 320, which are welded in a linear array within the groove 101. Therefore, the elastic action of the two springs 320 can always control the latch 310 to engage with the protective component 410, thereby locking the protective component 410.
[0023] As another aspect of this utility model, a new energy connector is also provided, wherein the left end of the connector body 200 is provided with a connector terminal 201 for cooperating with the plug terminal 103, and the right end of the connector body 200 is provided with a transmission line 202 for electrically connecting with the connector terminal 201.
[0024] Furthermore, the connector body 200 has grooves 203 at both the front and rear ends for placing the reset assembly 420.
[0025] In one embodiment of this utility model, such as Figure 4 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, the protective assembly 410 includes a protective cover 411 fitted onto the connector body 200 for left and right movement. The top of the protective cover 411 has a locking groove 412 for engaging with the snap fastener 310 to lock the protective cover 411. When the protective cover 411 moves directly above the snap fastener 310, the snap fastener 310, located in the groove 101, can be driven by the elastic action of the compressed spring 320 to lock its top end into the locking groove 412, thus locking the protective cover 411. At the same time, the protective cover 411 protects the connection between the connector terminal 201 and the plug terminal 103. A slider 413 for sliding in the slide groove 203 is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the protective cover 411. The width of the slider 413 is the same as the width of the slide groove 203, thus facilitating the movement of the slider 413 within the slide groove 203.
[0026] Furthermore, the reset assembly 420 includes a slide rod 421 fixedly installed in the slide groove 203 for sliding the slider 413. A second spring 422 is fitted on the rod of the slide rod 421 for driving the protective cover 411 close to the connector plug body 100. The second spring 422 is located on the right side of the slider 413. The left end of the second spring 422 is fixedly connected to the slider 413, and the right end of the second spring 422 is fixedly connected to the groove wall of the slide groove 203. Thus, the elastic effect of the second spring 422 can be used to always drive the protective cover 411 to be between the protective connector terminal 201 and the plug terminal 103, and protect the protective connector terminal 201 and the plug terminal 103.
[0027] Therefore, when it is necessary to connect the connector plug body 100 and the connector body 200, the protective cover 411 can be moved to the right by hand. At this time, the slider 413 inside the protective cover 411 can move along the rod of the slide rod 421, and the slider 413 compresses the spring 422 mounted on the slide rod 421. Then, the connector terminal 201 is inserted into the plug terminal 103, and the connection between the connector plug body 100 and the connector body 200 is completed. Then, the force on the protective cover 411 is released. At this time, the spring 422, which is in a compressed state, can drive the protective cover 411 to move to the left under its elastic action. When the protective cover 411 contacts the... When the latch 310 is engaged, it will be retracted into the groove 101 under the pressure of the protective cover 411, and the spring 320 will be compressed. When the locking groove 412 of the protective cover 411 moves directly above the latch 310, the spring 320, which is in a compressed state, can lock the latch 310 in the groove 101 into the locking groove 412, thus locking the protective cover 411. At the same time, the protective cover 411 can be used to protect the connector terminal 201 and the plug terminal 103. In addition, the movable protective cover 411 can solve the problem that the connector terminal 201 and the plug terminal 103 are inconvenient to connect due to the shell of the connector body 200.
