Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of connector technology, and specifically to a clamping device for a connector assembly structure. Background Technology

[0002] In various electronic devices and electrical systems, connectors are crucial components for achieving circuit continuity and signal transmission; their stability and reliability are paramount. Traditional connector assembly structures often employ simple plug-in methods, relying on friction between the plug and socket to maintain the connection. However, this method has several drawbacks. In practical applications, equipment may vibrate or be subjected to external forces such as pulling or impacts during operation. Under these circumstances, connectors held in place solely by friction are prone to loosening, leading to poor contact between the plug and socket. Poor contact can cause signal transmission interruptions, increased circuit resistance, and other problems, affecting the normal operation of the entire electronic device or electrical system, and in severe cases, even causing equipment damage.

[0003] To address these problems in traditional connector assembly structures, improve the stability and reliability of connector connections, and ensure the normal operation of electronic equipment and electrical systems, developing a new type of clamping device for connector assembly structures is of significant practical importance.

To overcome the drawbacks and defects described in the background art, this technical solution includes the following: a cable socket with a cable plug inserted into its front side, and clamping elements provided on the left and right side walls of the cable socket and the cable plug; The clamping component includes a fixing plate fixed to the side walls of both sides of the cable plug, and a connecting plate fixed to the side walls of both sides of the cable socket. A rotating handle is rotatably connected to the outer surface of the fixing plate. A wedge-shaped bent rod is fixed to the end of the rotating handle facing the connecting plate. A protrusion is fixed to the outer wall of the connecting plate. A slot for the wedge-shaped bent rod to be inserted into the protrusion is opened inside the protrusion. A horizontally arranged round rod is fixedly connected to the end of the protrusion facing the fixing plate. An arc-shaped groove for the round rod to rotate through is opened inside the side of the rotating handle near the protrusion.

[0005] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model: the wedge-shaped rod is crescent-shaped in general, and the thickness of the section of the wedge-shaped rod away from the rotating handle is less than the thickness of the section near the rotating handle, so as to wedge into the slot and lock it in place after the rotating handle is rotated.

[0006] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model: a pivot pin is fixed on the outer surface of the fixing plate, penetrating the middle section of the rotating handle.

[0007] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model: the middle section of the rotating handle is provided with a through hole for the shaft pin to pass through.

[0008] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, screws are respectively provided inside the fixing plate and the connecting plate, penetrating the outer surface of the cable socket and the cable plug.

The technical solution of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with embodiments of this utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of this utility model.

[0016] Example 1: A clamping device for a connector assembly structure includes a cable socket 1, a cable plug 2 inserted into the front of the cable socket 1, and clamping members 3 on the left and right side walls of the cable socket 1 and the cable plug 2. In the clamping members 3, a fixing plate 3-1 is fixed to the side walls of the cable plug 2, and a connecting plate 3-4 is fixed to the side walls of the cable socket 1. The outer surface of the fixing plate 3-1 has a pin 3-8 penetrating the middle section of a rotating handle 3-9. The middle section of the rotating handle 3-9 has a through hole for the pin 3-8 to pass through, achieving a rotatable connection between the rotating handle 3-9 and the fixing plate 3-1. A crescent-shaped wedge-shaped rod 3-3 is fixed to the end of the rotating handle 3-9 facing the connecting plate 3-4, and the thickness of the section of the wedge-shaped rod 3-3 away from the rotating handle 3-9 is less than the thickness of the section closer to the rotating handle 3-9. A protrusion 3-6 is fixed to the outer wall of the connecting plate 3-4. The protrusion 3-6 has a groove 3-5 inside for the wedge-shaped rod 3-3 to be inserted. A horizontally arranged round rod 3-7 is fixedly connected to the end of the protrusion 3-6 facing the fixing plate 3-1. The rotating handle 3-9 has an arc-shaped groove 3-2 at a 90-degree angle to the axis of the shaft pin 3-8 inside, allowing the round rod 3-7 to rotate through. Screws are installed inside both the fixing plate 3-1 and the connecting plate 3-4, respectively penetrating the outer surfaces of the cable socket 1 and the cable plug 2, for fixing. A hinged cover protecting the socket is installed on the upper surface of the cable socket 1. In use, the cable plug 2 is inserted into the cable socket 1, and the rotating handle 3-9 is rotated, causing the wedge-shaped rod 3-3 to wedge into the groove 3-5. The round rod 3-7 rotates within the arc-shaped groove 3-2, achieving clamping.

[0017] Example 2: The clamping device in this connector assembly structure, after the cable socket 1 and cable plug 2 are inserted, is fixed by the clamping member 3. The fixing plate 3-1 of the clamping member 3 is fixed on both sides of the cable plug 2, and the connecting plate 3-4 is fixed on both sides of the cable socket 1. The fixing plate 3-1 is rotatably connected to the rotating handle 3-9 through the shaft pin 3-8, and the shaft pin 3-8 passes through the through hole in the middle section of the rotating handle 3-9. The wedge-shaped bent rod 3-3 at the end of the rotating handle 3-9 is crescent-shaped, and its thickness is designed to facilitate wedging into the slot 3-5. The protrusion 3-6 on the connecting plate 3-4 has a slot 3-5, and the round rod 3-7 at one end of the protrusion 3-6 can rotatably pass through the arc-shaped groove 3-2 on the rotating handle 3-9 at a 90-degree angle around the axis of the shaft pin 3-8. The fixing plate 3-1 and the connecting plate 3-4 are fixed to the cable plug 2 and the cable socket 1 respectively by screws. The upper surface of the cable socket 1 is provided with a hinged flip-top protective socket. When clamping is required, rotate the handle 3-9, the wedge-shaped rod 3-3 rotates and inserts into the slot 3-5, and the round rod 3-7 rotates in the arc-shaped groove 3-2 to complete the clamping action.

[0018] Example 3: The clamping device on this connector assembly structure consists of a cable socket 1, a cable plug 2, and clamping components 3. The cable plug 2 is inserted into the front of the cable socket 1, and the clamping components 3 are distributed on both sides. Among the clamping components 3, the fixing plate 3-1 is installed on both sides of the cable plug 2, and the connecting plate 3-4 is installed on both sides of the cable socket 1. The fixing plate 3-1 is rotatably connected to the rotating handle 3-9 by a shaft pin 3-8, and the shaft pin 3-8 passes through the through hole in the middle section of the rotating handle 3-9. The crescent-shaped wedge-shaped bent rod 3-3 at the end of the rotating handle 3-9 is thinner away from the rotating handle 3-9. The protrusion 3-6 on the outer side of the connecting plate 3-4 has a groove 3-5, and the round rod 3-7 at one end of the protrusion 3-6 can pass through the arc-shaped groove 3-2 on the rotating handle 3-9 at a 90-degree angle to the axis of the shaft pin 3-8. The fixing plate 3-1 and the connecting plate 3-4 are fixed to the cable socket 1 and the cable plug 2 by screws. The upper surface of the cable socket 1 has a hinged flip cover. During operation, rotate the handle 3-9, the wedge-shaped rod 3-3 enters the slot 3-5, and the round rod 3-7 rotates in the arc-shaped groove 3-2 to clamp the cable socket 1 and the cable plug 2.

[0019] Based on the above-described preferred technical solution, the workflow of this technical solution is explained as follows: The cable plug 2 is inserted into the front of the cable socket 1. At this time, the cable socket 1 and the cable plug 2 are in a preliminary connection state, but the connection is not yet secure. Next, the clamping member 3 is operated. Since the fixing plate 3-1 is fixed to the side walls of both sides of the cable plug 2, and the connecting plate 3-4 is fixed to the side walls of both sides of the cable socket 1, and the outer surface of the fixing plate 3-1 is rotatably connected to the rotating handle 3-9 through a pin 3-8 passing through the middle section of the rotating handle 3-9, and the middle section of the rotating handle 3-9 has a through hole for the pin 3-8 to pass through, the rotating handle 3-9 can be rotated. A crescent-shaped wedge-shaped rod 3-3 is fixed to the end of the rotating handle 3-9 facing the connecting plate 3-4. The thickness of the section of the wedge-shaped rod 3-3 away from the rotating handle 3-9 is less than the thickness of the section near the rotating handle 3-9. A protrusion 3-6 is fixed to the outer wall of the connecting plate 3-4. The protrusion 3-6 has a groove 3-5 inside for the wedge-shaped rod 3-3 to be inserted into. A horizontally arranged round rod 3-7 is fixedly connected to the end of the protrusion 3-6 facing the fixing plate 3-1. The rotating handle 3-9 has an arc-shaped groove 3-2 at a 90-degree angle to the axis of the pivot pin 3-8 on the side near the protrusion 3-6. When the rotating handle 3-9 is rotated, the wedge-shaped rod 3-3 rotates along with the rotating handle 3-9 and gradually wedges into the slot 3-5. At the same time, the round rod 3-7 rotates and passes through the arc-shaped groove 3-2. As the wedge-shaped rod 3-3 continues to wedge into the slot 3-5, the cable plug 2 and the cable socket 1 are gradually clamped, achieving a secure connection. When disassembly is required, the rotating handle 3-9 is rotated in the opposite direction. The wedge-shaped rod 3-3 exits from the slot 3-5, and the round rod 3-7 rotates in the opposite direction in the arc-shaped groove 3-2. The clamping state of the cable plug 2 and the cable socket 1 is released, and the cable plug 2 can be pulled out of the cable socket 1. The screws inside the fixing plate 3-1 and the connecting plate 3-4, which pass through the outer surfaces of the cable socket 1 and the cable plug 2 respectively, serve to fix the fixing plate 3-1 and the connecting plate 3-4. The flip cover of the protective socket on the upper surface of the cable socket 1 can protect the socket of the cable socket 1 when the connector is not in use.

Undoubtedly, those skilled in the art can modify the described embodiments in various ways without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Therefore, the above drawings and descriptions are illustrative in nature and should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of the claims of the present invention.
