Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of connector housing processing tools, and in particular to a special clamp for connector housings with a quick locking or unlocking function. Background Technology
[0002] The connector housing is a structure used to protect the electronic components of the connector. It is usually made of metal and the electronic components are encapsulated inside the connector housing.
[0003] During the processing of connector housings, their assembly with electronic components, or the soldering of cables, clamps are typically used to hold the connector housings for ease of handling. Existing clamps usually consist of a stationary clamping arm and a movable clamping arm. The movable clamping arm is driven by a screw to move closer to or further away from the stationary clamping arm, thus locking or releasing the connector housing. This type of clamp requires frequent rotation of the screw during operation, and since the screw pitch is typically small, the screw needs to rotate several times during operation, making the clamping or releasing of the connector housing inconvenient. When batch-clamping connector housings of the same specification, the frequent rotation of the screw, coupled with the fact that connector housings of the same specification have the same shape and size, results in low connector production efficiency due to the inconvenience of this type of clamp.
[0004] Therefore, existing clamps for holding connector housings have the technical problem of being inconvenient to operate. Summary of the Invention
[0005] This utility model provides a special clamp for connector housings with quick locking or unlocking functions, which solves the technical problem that the operation of clamps used to hold connector housings in the prior art is inconvenient.

The movable clamp is provided with an unlocking handle that overcomes the elastic force of the first elastic element and causes the locking block to disengage from the locking groove. The unlocking handle is slidably connected to the movable clamp in a direction that approaches or moves away from the stationary clamp. The stationary clamp is provided with a stationary clamping groove, and the movable clamp is provided with a movable clamping groove. The movable clamping groove cooperates with the stationary clamping groove to clamp the connector housing.

An unlocking handle is provided on the movable clamp, sliding along its direction towards or away from the stationary clamp. Operating the unlocking handle overcomes the elastic force of the first elastic element, disengaging the locking block from the locking groove and achieving rapid release.
[0017] Because of the use of a locking assembly for quick locking or releasing of the moving clamp, when clamping connector housings of the same specification in batches, the operation process is greatly simplified compared to existing technologies, which eliminates the need for frequent screw rotation. Operators can clamp and release connector housings more quickly, thereby improving production efficiency.
[0018] The stationary and moving clamps are tightly fitted together by a locking assembly, ensuring the stability of the connector housing during processing or assembly. The cooperation between the locking block and the locking groove makes the locking process more reliable and less prone to loosening or falling off. Attached Figure Description

The specific embodiments include detailed descriptions intended to provide a thorough understanding of the subject matter of this invention. However, it will be clear and apparent to those skilled in the art that the subject matter of this invention is not limited to the specific details shown herein and can be practiced without these specific details.
[0031] Understandably, in this document, relational terms such as “first” and “second” are intended to distinguish one entity or operation from another, and are not intended to expressly or imply any actual relationship or order between these entities or operations.
[0032] The terms “comprising,” “including,” or any other variations thereof are intended to cover a non-exclusive inclusion, such that a process, method, article, or apparatus that comprises a list of elements includes not only those elements but also other elements not expressly listed, or elements inherent to such a process, method, article, or apparatus. Without further limitation, an element defined by the phrase “comprising one…” does not exclude the presence of other identical elements in the process, method, article, or apparatus that includes said element.
[0033] Refer to Figure 1 to Figure 7 As shown, a connector housing clamp with quick locking or unlocking function includes a stationary clamp 1; Movable clamp 2 is slidably connected to stationary clamp 1, and the movable clamp 2 and the stationary clamp 1 cooperate to lock the connector housing; and locking assembly 3, the locking assembly 3 being used to lock the position of the movable clamp 2 relative to the stationary clamp 1 when the movable clamp 2 is engaged with the stationary clamp 1 to lock the connector housing; The locking assembly 3 includes a locking block 31 disposed on the stationary clamp 1. The locking block 31 is slidably connected to the stationary clamp 1 in a direction that approaches or moves away from the stationary clamp 1. The movable clamp 2 is provided with a locking groove 21 that cooperates with the locking block 31. The stationary clamp 1 is provided with a first elastic member 11 that pushes the locking block 31 to cooperate with the locking groove 21.
