Abstract

The application provides a cable joint assembly and a vehicle. The cable joint assembly comprises a cable joint and a locking member. The cable joint is formed with a receiving cavity and an opening part in communication with the receiving cavity. The receiving cavity comprises a first receiving section and a second receiving section. The first receiving section and the second receiving section are arranged along a first direction. The first receiving section is located on a side of the second receiving section away from the opening part. The locking member is located in the receiving cavity and is movable along the first direction. The locking member comprises a main body part and an elastic part connected with the main body part. The elastic part is located on a side of the main body part close to the opening part. The main body part and the elastic part jointly define a receiving cavity. The inner diameter of the second receiving section gradually decreases from an end away from the opening part to an end close to the opening part. When installing the ball head with the cable joint assembly, the locking member can be moved in a direction away from the opening part.

In this way, the ball head of the gear shifter rocker arm can be more easily installed into the receiving cavity.

Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of vehicle shifting device technology, and in particular to a cable joint assembly and a vehicle. Background Technology

[0002] The transmission cable is a component that transmits the force required for gear selection. One end of the cable is connected to the transmission, and the other end is connected to the gear shifter. The cable connector assembly is the mechanism that connects the cable to the gear shifter.

[0003] In some related technologies, the cable joint assembly and the shift rocker arm are fitted with a ball pin structure. Specifically, the shift rocker arm is provided with a ball head, and the cable joint assembly includes a ball cup. The diameter of the ball cup port is smaller than the diameter of the ball head, which makes the ball head and ball cup more difficult to install and takes longer to install. Utility Model Content

[0004] This application provides a cable joint assembly and a vehicle, which aims to improve the problem that the spherical structure between the cable joint assembly and the shift rocker arm in the related art is relatively difficult to install.

[0005] The specific technical solution is as follows: An embodiment of the first aspect of this application provides a cable connector assembly, the cable connector assembly including a cable connector and a locking member, the cable connector forming a receiving cavity and an opening communicating with the receiving cavity, the receiving cavity including a first receiving segment and a second receiving segment, the first receiving segment and the second receiving segment being arranged along a first direction, the first receiving segment being located on the side of the second receiving segment away from the opening, the first direction being parallel to the depth direction of the receiving cavity; the locking member being located within the receiving cavity and movable along the first direction, the locking member including a main body portion and an elastic portion connected to the main body portion, the elastic portion being located on the side of the main body portion near the opening, the main body portion and the elastic portion jointly defining a receiving cavity; wherein, from the end away from the opening to the end near the opening, the inner diameter of the second receiving segment gradually decreases.

[0006] In the cable connector assembly of this application embodiment, the locking member is located within the receiving cavity of the cable connector and can move along a first direction. As the position of the locking member changes within the receiving cavity, the shape of the elastic portion changes, thereby causing a change in the port diameter of the receiving cavity. When installing the ball head of the shifter rocker arm with the cable connector assembly, the ball head can first be inserted into the receiving cavity of the cable connector, and the locking member can be moved away from the opening. The elastic portion gradually detaches from the second receiving section and gradually expands, increasing the port diameter of the receiving cavity. At this point, the ball head is then inserted into the receiving cavity of the locking member. Subsequently, the locking member is moved towards the opening, keeping the ball head within the receiving cavity. The elastic portion deforms under the forced action of the second receiving section, causing it to contract, thereby reducing the volume of the receiving cavity. This eliminates the fitting gap between the ball head and the receiving cavity, resulting in a better fit between the ball head and the receiving cavity. Simultaneously, the port diameter of the receiving cavity also decreases, ensuring that the ball head will not detach from the receiving cavity and improving the stability of the fit. Therefore, it can be seen that the cable joint assembly in this embodiment of the application is less labor-intensive to install with the ball head, thereby shortening the installation time.

[0007] In some embodiments, the cable connector assembly further includes an adjusting member that abuts against the end of the locking member away from the opening, the adjusting member being used to adjust the position of the locking member in the receiving cavity.

[0008] The position of the locking member in the receiving cavity can be adjusted by the adjusting member, so that when the ball head is assembled with the cable connector assembly, the locking member can move away from the opening, so that the ball head can be installed into the receiving cavity more easily, and after the ball head enters the receiving cavity, the locking member moves towards the opening under the action of the adjusting member, thereby forcing the elastic part to close, eliminating the fitting gap between the ball head and the receiving cavity, and reducing the port diameter of the receiving cavity to ensure that the ball head will not come out of the receiving cavity.

[0009] In some embodiments, the adjusting member is an elastic member located between the locking member and the bottom surface of the receiving cavity.

[0010] When assembling the ball head and cable connector assembly, after the ball head enters the receiving cavity, it pushes the locking element, causing the locking element to move away from the opening. The elastic element is compressed, and when the elastic part of the locking element disengages from the second receiving section, it expands, allowing the ball head to enter the receiving cavity of the locking element. After the ball head enters the receiving cavity, the assembler can release the shifter rocker arm. Under the elastic action of the elastic element, the locking element drives the ball head towards the opening, forcing the elastic part to close, thus completing the assembly. As can be seen from the above process, during the entire assembly process, the assembler only needs to hold the shifter rocker arm, insert the ball head into the receiving cavity, and use the ball head to push the locking element; no other operations are required. Therefore, the assembly process is simple, further shortening installation time and significantly improving installation efficiency.

[0011] In some embodiments, the adjusting element is a screw, and the bottom of the receiving cavity has a threaded hole, with the screw engaging with the threaded hole.

[0012] The length of the screw portion within the receiving cavity can be adjusted by rotating the screw. When assembling the ball head with the cable connector assembly, the portion of the screw within the receiving cavity can be shortened, allowing the locking member to move away from the opening. This causes the elastic part to expand, allowing the ball head to be inserted into the receiving cavity. After the ball head enters the receiving cavity, the portion of the screw within the receiving cavity is lengthened. The screw pushes the locking member towards the opening, forcing the elastic part to close, thus completing the assembly. Furthermore, the screw's limiting action ensures that the elastic part of the locking member does not disengage from the second receiving section, thereby preventing the ball head from detaching from the receiving cavity.

[0013] In some embodiments, the main body slides against the inner wall of the first receiving section. This arrangement improves the smoothness of the locking member's movement within the receiving cavity, thereby preventing vibration or shaking during the locking member's movement.

[0014] In some embodiments, the elastic portion and the main body portion are integrally formed, and the wall thickness of the elastic portion is less than the wall thickness of the main body portion.

[0015] The elastic part and the main body are integrally molded, which helps reduce processing steps and save costs. Furthermore, the wall thickness of the elastic part is less than that of the main body, making it easier for the elastic part to undergo elastic deformation, allowing it to close under the pressure of the second receiving section. At the same time, it also makes the main body less prone to deformation, thus ensuring a good sliding fit between the main body and the first receiving section.

[0016] In some embodiments, the elastic part and the main body are integrally formed, and the connection between the elastic part and the main body is provided with a groove.

[0017] The elastic part and the main body are integrally molded, which helps reduce processing steps and save costs. Furthermore, a groove is provided at the connection between the elastic part and the main body, allowing the elastic part to more easily undergo elastic deformation, so that it can close under the pressure of the second receiving section.

[0018] In some embodiments, the main body has a through hole at its center, and the locking member also has a deformation groove. One end of the deformation groove communicates with the through hole, and the other end of the deformation groove extends to the end of the locking member near the opening. The deformation groove passes through the main body and the elastic part.

[0019] The deformation groove provides deformation space for the elastic part, thereby ensuring that the elastic part can be contracted under the force of the second receiving section.

[0020] In some embodiments, the cable connector includes a connector body and a bottom cover, the bottom cover and the connector body together defining the receiving cavity, the bottom cover being detachably connected to the connector body.

[0021] When assembling the cable joint assembly, the locking element can be installed into the joint body while the bottom cover is detached from the joint body, and then the bottom cover can be installed. During the use of the cable joint assembly, if the locking element needs repair or replacement, the bottom cover can be separated from the joint body first, and then the locking element can be removed for repair or a new locking element can be installed. In summary, the cable joint includes a joint body and a bottom cover, and the bottom cover is detachably connected to the joint body. This facilitates the installation and removal of the locking element, thus providing convenience for the assembly of the cable joint assembly and for the repair or replacement of the locking element during use.

[0022] In some embodiments, the diameter of the opening gradually increases from the end closer to the receiving cavity to the end farther away from the receiving cavity.

[0023] When assembling the ball joint of the shifter rocker arm with the cable connector assembly, the ball joint must first be inserted into the receiving cavity of the cable connector before being further assembled with the receiving cavity of the locking element. The opening diameter gradually increases from the end closest to the receiving cavity to the end furthest from it. This allows the ball joint to enter the receiving cavity of the cable connector more easily, thereby improving the assembly efficiency of the ball joint and cable connector assembly.

[0024] An embodiment of the second aspect of this application provides a vehicle including a gear shift rocker arm and a cable joint assembly as described in any of the above embodiments, the rocker arm having a ball head located within and fitted into the receiving cavity.

[0025] The vehicle in this embodiment is based on the same inventive concept as the cable connector assembly in the above embodiments. Therefore, the vehicle in this embodiment can obtain the beneficial effects of the cable connector assembly in the corresponding embodiments. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation

[0028] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this application clearer, the following detailed description is provided in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative and not intended to limit the scope of this application.

[0029] In the description of this application, it should be understood that if terms such as "upper," "lower," "left," and "right" indicate the orientation or positional relationship based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings, they are only for the convenience of describing this application 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. Therefore, the terms used to describe positional relationships in the accompanying drawings are only for illustrative purposes and should not be construed as limiting this application. For those skilled in the art, the specific meaning of the above terms can be understood according to the specific circumstances.

[0030] Furthermore, the terms "first" and "second" are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as implying or suggesting relative importance or implicitly indicating the number of technical features indicated. Thus, a feature defined as "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of that feature. In the description of this application, "multiple" means at least two, such as two, three, etc., unless otherwise explicitly specified.

[0031] In the description of this application, unless otherwise expressly specified and limited, the terms "installation," "connection," "joining," "fixing," etc., should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral part; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; they can refer to the internal communication of two components or the interaction between two components, unless otherwise expressly limited. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this application according to the specific circumstances.

[0032] The transmission cable is a component that transmits the force required for gear selection. One end of the cable connects to the transmission, and the other end connects to the gear shifter. The cable connector assembly is the mechanism that connects the cable to the gear shifter. In some related technologies, the cable connector assembly uses a ball-and-pin structure to mate with the gear shifter rocker arm. Specifically, the gear shifter rocker arm has a ball head, and the cable connector assembly includes a ball cup, with the diameter at the end of the ball cup being smaller than the diameter of the ball head. This makes the installation of the ball head and ball cup more labor-intensive and time-consuming.

[0033] Based on the above problems, the applicant of this application has proposed the technical solution described in this application. Specifically, the cable connector has a receiving cavity and an opening communicating with the receiving cavity. A locking member is provided inside the receiving cavity, and the locking member is movable along the depth direction of the receiving cavity. The locking member includes a main body and an elastic part, with the elastic part closer to the opening than the main body. The main body and the elastic part together define a receiving cavity for engaging with the ball joint of the shifter rocker arm. The receiving cavity includes a first receiving section and a second receiving section, with the second receiving section closer to the opening than the first receiving section. The inner diameter of the second receiving section gradually decreases from the end furthest from the opening to the end closest to the opening.

[0034] With this configuration, as the position of the locking member changes within the receiving cavity, the shape of the elastic portion changes, thus causing a change in the port diameter of the receiving cavity. When installing the ball joint of the shifter rocker arm with the cable connector assembly, the ball joint can first be inserted into the receiving cavity of the cable connector, and the locking member can be moved away from the opening. The elastic portion gradually expands, separating from the second receiving section, increasing the port diameter of the receiving cavity. Then, the ball joint is inserted into the receiving cavity of the locking member. Subsequently, the locking member is moved towards the opening, keeping the ball joint within the receiving cavity. The elastic portion deforms under the forced action of the second receiving section, causing it to contract, thus reducing the volume of the receiving cavity. This eliminates the gap between the ball joint and the receiving cavity, resulting in a better fit. Simultaneously, the port diameter of the receiving cavity also decreases, ensuring the ball joint does not detach from the receiving cavity and improving the stability of the fit. Therefore, the cable connector assembly in this embodiment requires less effort to install with the ball joint, thereby shortening installation time.

[0035] The above is the core idea of ​​this application. The technical solutions in the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of this application without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0036] like Figures 1 to 7As shown, an embodiment of the first aspect of this application provides a cable connector assembly 10, which includes a cable connector 100 and a locking member 200. The cable connector 100 forms a receiving cavity 101 and an opening 102 communicating with the receiving cavity 101. The receiving cavity 101 includes a first receiving section 1011 and a second receiving section 1012. The first receiving section 1011 and the second receiving section 1012 are arranged along a first direction. The first receiving section 1011 is located on the side of the second receiving section 1012 away from the opening 102. The first direction is parallel to the depth direction of the receiving cavity 101. The locking member 200 is located within the receiving cavity 101 and is movable in a first direction. The locking member 200 includes a main body portion 210 and an elastic portion 220 connected to the main body portion 210. The elastic portion 220 is located on the side of the main body portion 210 near the opening 102. The main body portion 210 and the elastic portion 220 together define the receiving cavity 201, which is used to engage with the ball joint of the shifter rocker arm. The inner diameter of the second receiving section 1012 gradually decreases from the end furthest from the opening 102 to the end closest to the opening 102.

[0037] The locking member 200 includes a main body 210 and an elastic part 220 connected to the main body 210. The elastic part 220 can be made of a plastic material, such as rubber-plastic or polyurethane elastomer, possessing both elasticity and good wear resistance. The main body 210 and the elastic part 220 can be made of the same material; for example, the main body 210 can also be made of plastic. This allows the main body 210 and the elastic part 220 to be a single molded structure, reducing processing steps and saving costs. In other embodiments, the main body 210 and the elastic part 220 can be made of different materials. For example, the main body 210 can be metal and the elastic part 220 can be plastic; or the main body 210 can be hard plastic and the elastic part 220 can be soft plastic.

[0038] In the cable connector assembly 10 of this application embodiment, the locking member 200 is located within the receiving cavity 101 of the cable connector 100 and is movable in a first direction. As the position of the locking member 200 changes within the receiving cavity 101, the shape of the elastic portion 220 changes, thereby causing a change in the port diameter of the receiving cavity 201. When installing the ball head of the shifter rocker arm to the cable connector assembly 10, the ball head can first be inserted into the receiving cavity 101 of the cable connector 100, and the locking member 200 can be moved away from the opening 102. The elastic portion 220 gradually detaches from the second receiving section 1012 and gradually expands, making the port diameter of the receiving cavity 201 larger. At this time, the ball head is then inserted into the receiving cavity 201 of the locking member. Subsequently, the locking member 200 is moved towards the opening 102, keeping the ball head in the receiving cavity 201. The elastic part 220 deforms under the forced action of the second receiving section 1012, causing it to contract and reducing the volume of the receiving cavity 201. This eliminates the gap between the ball head and the receiving cavity 201, resulting in a better fit. Simultaneously, the diameter of the receiving cavity 201's port also decreases, ensuring the ball head will not detach from the receiving cavity 201 and improving the stability of the fit. Therefore, the cable connector assembly 10 in this embodiment requires less effort when installing with the ball head, thus shortening installation time.

[0039] like Figure 5 , Figure 6 As shown, in some embodiments, the cable connector assembly 10 further includes an adjusting member 300, which abuts against the end of the locking member 200 away from the opening 102, and the adjusting member 300 is used to adjust the position of the locking member 200 in the receiving cavity 101.

[0040] The position of the locking member 200 in the receiving cavity 101 can be adjusted by the adjusting member 300, so that when the ball head is assembled with the cable connector assembly 10, the locking member 200 can move away from the opening 102, so that the ball head can be installed into the receiving cavity 201 more easily, and after the ball head enters the receiving cavity 201, the locking member 200 moves in the direction of the opening 102 under the action of the adjusting member 300, thereby forcing the elastic part 220 to close, so as to eliminate the fitting gap between the ball head and the receiving cavity 201, and reduce the port diameter of the receiving cavity 201, ensuring that the ball head will not come out of the receiving cavity 201.

[0041] like Figure 5 , Figure 6 As shown, in one embodiment, the adjusting member 300 is an elastic member located between the locking member 200 and the bottom surface of the receiving cavity 101.

[0042] For example, the elastic element can be a spring, an elastic rubber element, an elastic silicone element, etc.

[0043] When assembling the ball head with the cable connector assembly 10, after the ball head enters the receiving cavity 101, it can push the locking member 200, causing the locking member 200 to move away from the opening 102. The elastic member is compressed. When the elastic part 220 of the locking member 200 disengages from the second receiving section 1012, it expands, and the ball head enters the receiving cavity 201 of the locking member 200. After the ball head enters the receiving cavity 201, the assembler can release the shifter rocker arm. Under the elastic action of the elastic member, the locking member 200 drives the ball head to move in the direction of the opening 102, thereby forcing the elastic part 220 to close, completing the assembly.

[0044] As can be seen from the above process, during the entire assembly process, the assembler only needs to hold the shifter rocker arm, insert the ball head into the receiving cavity 101 and use the ball head to push the locking part 200, without performing any other operations. Therefore, the assembly process is simple, which can further shorten the installation time and thus significantly improve the installation efficiency.

[0045] In another embodiment, the adjusting member 300 is a screw, and the bottom of the receiving cavity 101 is provided with a threaded hole, which is engaged with the screw.

[0046] The length of the portion of the screw within the receiving cavity 101 can be adjusted by rotating the screw. When assembling the ball head with the cable connector assembly 10, the portion of the screw within the receiving cavity 101 can be shortened, allowing the locking member 200 to move away from the opening 102. This causes the elastic portion 220 to expand, allowing the ball head to be inserted into the receiving cavity 201. After the ball head enters the receiving cavity 201, the portion of the screw within the receiving cavity 101 is lengthened. The screw pushes the locking member 200 towards the opening 102, forcing the elastic portion 220 to close, thus completing the assembly. Furthermore, the screw's limiting effect ensures that the elastic portion 220 of the locking member 200 does not detach from the second receiving section 1012, thereby preventing the ball head from falling out of the receiving cavity 201.

[0047] like Figure 5 As shown, in some embodiments, the main body 210 slides against the inner wall of the first receiving section 1011. This arrangement improves the smoothness of the movement of the locking member 200 within the receiving cavity 101, thereby preventing vibration or shaking of the locking member 200 during movement.

[0048] In one embodiment, the elastic part 220 and the main body part 210 are integrally formed, and the wall thickness of the elastic part 220 is less than the wall thickness of the main body part 210.

[0049] The elastic portion 220 and the main body portion 210 are integrally molded, which helps reduce processing steps and save costs. Furthermore, the wall thickness of the elastic portion 220 is less than that of the main body portion 210, making it easier for the elastic portion 220 to undergo elastic deformation, allowing it to close under the pressure of the second receiving section 1012. Simultaneously, this also makes the main body portion 210 less prone to deformation, thus ensuring a good sliding fit between the main body portion 210 and the first receiving section 1011.

[0050] like Figure 9 , Figure 10 As shown, in one embodiment, the elastic part 220 and the main body part 210 are integrally formed, and the connection part between the elastic part 220 and the main body part 210 is provided with a groove 230.

[0051] The elastic part 220 and the main body 210 are integrally molded, which helps to reduce processing steps and save costs. On this basis, a groove 230 is provided at the connection between the elastic part 220 and the main body 210, which makes it easier for the elastic part 220 to generate elastic deformation, so that the elastic part 220 can be closed under the force of the second receiving section 1012.

[0052] like Figure 9 , Figure 11 As shown, in some embodiments, the main body 210 has a through hole 211 at its center, and the locking member 200 also has a deformation groove 240. One end of the deformation groove 240 is connected to the through hole 211, and the other end of the deformation groove 240 extends to the end of the locking member 200 near the opening 102. The deformation groove 240 passes through the main body 210 and the elastic part 220.

[0053] The deformation groove 240 provides deformation space for the elastic part 220, thereby ensuring that the elastic part 220 can be closed under the pressure of the second receiving section 1012.

[0054] like Figure 5 , Figure 6 As shown, in some embodiments, the cable connector 100 includes a connector body 110 and a bottom cover 120, the bottom cover 120 and the connector body 110 together defining a receiving cavity 101, and the bottom cover 120 is detachably connected to the connector body 110.

[0055] When assembling the cable connector assembly 10, the locking element 200 can be installed into the connector body 110 while the bottom cover 120 is separated from the connector body 110, and then the bottom cover 120 can be installed. During the use of the cable connector assembly 10, if the locking element 200 needs repair or replacement, the bottom cover 120 can be separated from the connector body 110 first, and then the locking element 200 can be removed for repair or a new locking element 200 can be installed. In summary, the cable connector 100 includes a connector body 110 and a bottom cover 120, and the bottom cover 120 is detachably connected to the connector body 110. This facilitates the installation and removal of the locking element 200, thereby providing convenience for the assembly of the cable connector assembly 10 and for the repair or replacement of the locking element 200 during the use of the cable connector assembly 10.

[0056] like Figure 5 , Figure 8 As shown, in some embodiments, the diameter of the opening 102 gradually increases from the end near the receiving cavity 101 to the end away from the receiving cavity 101.

[0057] When assembling the ball joint of the shifter rocker arm with the cable connector assembly 10, the ball joint must first be inserted into the receiving cavity 101 of the cable connector 100, and then further assembled with the receiving cavity 201 of the locking member 200. The diameter of the opening 102 gradually increases from the end near the receiving cavity 101 to the end away from the receiving cavity 101. This allows the ball joint to enter the receiving cavity 101 of the cable connector 100 more easily, thereby improving the assembly efficiency of the ball joint and the cable connector assembly 10.

[0058] An embodiment of the second aspect of this application provides a vehicle including a gear shift rocker arm and a cable joint assembly 10 as described in any of the above embodiments, the rocker arm having a ball head located within the receiving cavity 101 and fitted into the receiving cavity 201.

[0059] The vehicle in this embodiment is based on the same inventive concept as the cable connector assembly 10 in the above embodiments. Therefore, the vehicle in this embodiment can obtain the beneficial effects of the cable connector assembly 10 in the corresponding embodiments.

[0060] The above description is merely a specific embodiment of this application, but the scope of protection of this application is not limited thereto. Any variations or substitutions that can be easily conceived by those skilled in the art within the scope of the technology disclosed in this application should be included within the scope of protection of this application. Therefore, the scope of protection of this application should be determined by the scope of the claims.
