Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of electrical connector technology, specifically a floating electrical connector. Background Technology

[0002] Electrical connectors are primarily used for electrical connections and signal transmission between devices, components, and systems, serving as essential basic components for completing a system. Related technologies include fixed-end connectors and free-end connectors. Fixed-end connectors have sockets, while free-end connectors have pins that mate with the sockets. When using an electrical connector, the user first places the fixed-end connector on the electrical component, and then connects the pins of the free-end connector to the cable. The free-end connector is then inserted into the fixed-end connector. Most existing connectors are fixed connections, making it impossible to actively correct the mating position when not in direct visual contact. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of this invention is to provide a floating electrical connector to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a floating electrical connector, including a socket and a plug, wherein after the plug is connected to the socket, the gap between the opposing surfaces of the socket and the plug is 'a', and the value of 'a' is in the range of 31-35 mm; the socket includes an outer cavity and a support plate, and the support plate is provided with through holes at its four corners, and the through holes communicate with the outside through notches.

[0005] As a preferred technical solution of this utility model: the outer cavity is provided with a first pin and a second pin, and the length of the first pin is greater than the length of the second pin.

[0006] As a preferred technical solution of this utility model: the number of the first pins is three, which are respectively arranged on the left, right and upper sides of the second pin; wherein, each of the first pins is independent of each other, and the first pin is flat.

[0007] As a preferred technical solution of this utility model: the outer cavity is further provided with an isolation wall, and the first pin and the second pin are completely separated by the isolation wall.

[0008] As a preferred technical solution of this utility model: a reinforcing rib is provided at the connection between the outer cavity and the support plate; there are multiple reinforcing ribs, which are evenly distributed at the connection between the outer cavity and the support plate.

[0009] As a preferred technical solution of this utility model: the back of the support plate is also provided with connecting holes, and the number of connecting holes is equal to the number of the first pins.

[0010] As a preferred technical solution of this utility model: the back of the support plate is also provided with fixing holes for fixing the second pin, and there are multiple fixing holes, which are distributed in a long strip on the support plate.

[0011] The beneficial effects of this utility model by adopting the above technical solution are as follows: since the gap between the opposing surfaces of the plug and the socket is 31-35 mm, the fingers will not be pinched during the docking process; in particular, the four corners of the support plate are connected to the through holes through the notches provided, so that the socket has a certain amount of room to move after installation, which makes it easier for the user to automatically adapt to the insertion of the plug when it is not visible.

[0017] The embodiments of this utility model are described in detail below. Examples of these embodiments 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 this utility model, and should not be construed as limiting this utility model. In the description of this utility model, it should be understood that the terms "upper," "lower," "front," "upper surface," etc., indicate the orientation or positional relationship based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings, and are only for the convenience of describing this utility model and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore should not be construed as limiting this utility model.

[0018] Please see Figure 1-4 This utility model provides an embodiment of a floating electrical connector, including a socket 1 and a plug 10. After the plug 10 is connected to the socket 1, the gap between the facing surfaces of the socket 1 and the plug 10 is 'a', and the value of 'a' is in the range of 31-35 mm. Since the value of 'a' is between 31 and 35 mm, when the user plugs the plug 10, the user's fingers will not be pinched between the plug 10 and the socket 1. In particular, it can avoid the problem that the plug 10 is difficult to fully insert into the socket 1 due to the fingers being between the plug 10 and the socket 1.

[0019] In particular, the socket 1 includes an outer cavity 6 and a support plate 9. The support plate 9 has through holes 2 at its four corners, and the through holes 2 communicate with the outside through notches 8. Therefore, after the socket 1 is installed, that is, after the bolt passes through the through hole 2, the notches 8 have a certain amount of room to move, so that when the plug 10 is inserted, the socket 1 can automatically adapt to the position of the plug 1, thus making it easier for the user to automatically adapt to the insertion of the plug even when it is not visible.

[0020] Furthermore, since the outer cavity 6 is provided with a first pin 3 and a second pin 4, and the length of the first pin 3 is greater than the length of the second pin 4, the pins are of different lengths, which can reduce the insertion and removal force and facilitate the insertion and removal of the plug 10 and the socket 1.

[0021] Furthermore, there are three first pins 3 respectively located on the left, right and top sides of the second pin 4; wherein each of the first pins 3 is independent of each other, and the first pin 3 is flat. Therefore, due to the flat design of the pins, the contact surface can be increased, the conductivity can be improved, and heat can be dissipated more easily.

[0022] Meanwhile, since the outer cavity 6 is also provided with an isolation wall 5, and the first pin 3 and the second pin 4 are completely isolated by the isolation wall 5, the pins can be arranged separately, which facilitates heat dissipation and reduces the problem of electromagnetic interference between the pins.

[0023] To reduce the deformation of the socket 1 during the insertion and removal of the plug 10, a reinforcing rib 7 is provided at the connection between the outer cavity 6 and the support plate 9; there are multiple reinforcing ribs 7, which are evenly distributed at the connection between the outer cavity 6 and the support plate 9.

[0024] Furthermore, since the back of the support plate 9 is also provided with connection holes 12, and the number of connection holes 12 is equal to the number of the first pins 3, specifically, the connection holes 12 are internal threaded holes. Since the bottom is set with screws, it is convenient to connect wires, such as power connection wires, ground wires, etc.

[0025] In addition, since the back of the support plate 9 is also provided with fixing holes 11 for fixing the second pin 4, and there are multiple fixing holes 11 distributed in a long strip on the support plate 9, the side of the second pin 4 facing away from the plug 10 can be reliably fixed in the fixing holes 11, thereby ensuring that the second pin 4 can be stably and reliably fixed in the socket 1.

[0026] The embodiments of this utility model have been described in detail above with reference to the accompanying drawings, but this utility model is not limited to the described embodiments. For those skilled in the art, various changes, modifications, substitutions, and variations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of this utility model, and these variations still fall within the protection scope of this utility model.
