[0012] The technical solutions of the embodiments of this application will be clearly described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some, not all, of the embodiments of this application. Based on the embodiments of this application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0013] In the description of this application, it should be noted that the terminology used herein is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to limit the exemplary embodiments according to this application. For ease of description, the dimensions of the various parts shown in the drawings are not drawn to actual scale. Techniques, methods, and devices known to those skilled in the art may not be discussed in detail, but where appropriate, such techniques, methods, and devices should be considered part of the specification. In all examples shown and discussed herein, any specific values ​​should be interpreted as merely exemplary and not as limitations. Therefore, other examples of exemplary embodiments may have different values. It should be noted that similar reference numerals and letters in the following drawings denote similar items; therefore, once an item is defined in one drawing, it need not be further discussed in subsequent drawings.

[0014] Example 1: This embodiment provides an automotive lamp socket connector, including: The housing 1 has a first chamber 11 and a second chamber 12 that are connected to each other. Connecting seat 2 is disposed in the first chamber 11, and the connecting seat 2 is provided with a fixing groove 21 and a snap-fit ​​groove 22. The fixing groove 21 is located on the axial end face of the connecting seat 2 for installing and connecting the vehicle lamp holder, and the snap-fit ​​groove 22 is located on the periphery of the connecting seat 2. Power connector 3 is installed on connector 2, and one end of connector 3 passes through connector 2 and is located in the second chamber 12; The snap-fit ​​component 4 includes an elastic connecting plate 41 and a snap-fit ​​block 42. The elastic connecting plate 41 can be radially telescopically expanded and connected to the housing 1 and located in the first chamber 11. The snap-fit ​​block 42 is disposed on the elastic connecting plate 41 for radially inserting and engaging with the snap-fit ​​groove 22.

[0015] Furthermore, the elastic connecting plate 41 has a "V" shaped structure, with one end of the elastic connecting plate 41 integrally connected to the inner wall of the housing 1, and the locking block 42 integrally connected to the other end of the elastic connecting plate 41.

[0016] In this technical solution, a storage hole 13 communicating with the first chamber 11 is provided on the housing 1. The elastic connecting plate 41 is made of plastic and has a "V"-shaped structure. The elastic connecting plate 41 is disposed in the storage hole 13. One end of the elastic connecting plate 41 is integrally connected to the inner wall of the housing 1, and the other end is integrally connected to a locking block 42. The structural shape of the first chamber 11 is adapted to the connecting seat 2. A locking groove 22 is provided on the periphery of the connecting seat 2. Through this structural design, the connecting seat 2 is inserted axially into the first chamber 11, and the locking block 42 is inserted radially into the locking groove 22, thereby limiting the axial movement of the connecting seat 2 and realizing the installation of the connecting seat 2 on the housing 1. When the connector needs to be disassembled and replaced, the operator operates by squeezing the elastic connecting plate 41 through the storage hole 13 to drive the locking block 42 to move out of the locking groove 22, thereby allowing the connector to be detached from the housing 1 for disassembly and replacement.

[0017] Furthermore, the locking block 42 is provided with an abutting inclined surface 43. This structural design ensures that when the connecting seat 2 is axially inserted into the first chamber 11, it first contacts the abutting inclined surface 43, thereby pushing the locking block 42 radially away from the connecting seat 2. Simultaneously, the elastic connecting plate 41 is compressed and contracts. After the connecting seat 2 is fully inserted into the first chamber 11, the locking block 42 is precisely aligned with the locking groove 22. The elastic connecting plate 41 then returns to its original position, pushing the locking block 42 into the locking groove 22, thus achieving locking and fixing.

[0018] It is worth noting that the aforementioned snap-fit ​​component 4, the storage hole 13 structure, and the snap-fit ​​groove 22 on the housing 1 of the connecting seat 2 are all in two sets, and are symmetrically arranged about the axial cross section.

[0019] In summary, the expansion and contraction of the elastic connecting plate 41 drives the locking block 42 to move radially. The locking block 42 and the locking groove 22 are matched and locked axially, thus achieving a detachable connection between the connecting seat 2 and the housing 1. This facilitates the replacement of the connecting seat 2 with different shaped fixing grooves 21, thereby enabling the automotive lamp socket connector to be adapted to different models of automotive lamps, improving compatibility and practicality.

[0021] Furthermore, the housing 1 is provided with a positioning groove 14, and the connecting seat 2 is provided with a positioning block 23. The positioning block 23 is located in the positioning groove 14 and abuts against the groove wall of the positioning groove 14 in the circumferential direction.

[0022] This structural design allows the positioning block 23 and the positioning groove 14 to be matched and connected, which can, on the one hand, position the connecting seat 2 on the housing 1 for easy installation and fixation; on the other hand, the side wall contact between the positioning block 23 and the positioning groove 14 can also provide circumferential limiting for the connecting seat 2, effectively enhancing installation stability.

[0023] Example 3: This embodiment provides an automotive lamp socket connector, which, in addition to the technical solutions of the above embodiments, also has the following technical features.

[0024] Furthermore, the housing 1 is provided with a connecting hole 15 for connecting the first chamber 11 and the second chamber 12, and the connecting hole 15 is arranged in a "+" structure; The power connector 3 is installed by passing through the connection hole 15.

[0025] In this technical solution, by setting the "+" structure connection hole 15, the two power pins 3 on the connector can be arranged parallel to each other or perpendicular to each other, thereby better adapting to power pins of different shapes and effectively improving compatibility.

[0026] The embodiments of this application have been described above with reference to the accompanying drawings.
