Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of precision manufacturing technology of mechanical structures, and in particular to a quick-locking release connector housing. Background Technology

[0002] Connector housings are widely used components in mechanical equipment and piping systems, used to enable detachable connections between different components or pipelines. In many applications, connectors are required not only to provide reliable sealing and securing, but also to have an efficient and convenient installation and disassembly process.

[0003] Currently, quick-locking structures have emerged to achieve rapid connection and disconnection. However, many existing quick-locking connectors are either complex in structure and expensive to manufacture, or rely on complex snap-fit ​​or spring-loaded structures, requiring specific tools or significant external force for disassembly, making operation less intuitive and convenient. This is especially true when operating in confined spaces, where traditional threaded or flanged connections are particularly time-consuming and labor-intensive to install and remove.

[0004] Furthermore, when installing the connector housing onto the equipment base, existing connectors are typically fixed directly using bolt holes. Once installed, this method makes it difficult to change the position. If misalignment occurs during installation, or if fine adjustments to the position of the connecting pipes are needed during subsequent use, the traditional fixing method will not meet the requirements. It is necessary to completely disassemble and re-drill holes for repositioning, resulting in poor installation flexibility and limited adaptability.

[0005] Therefore, this utility model proposes a quick-locking release connector housing to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art. Utility Model Content

[0006] In view of the problems of complex and time-consuming connection and disassembly operations and difficulty in fine-tuning after the installation position is fixed in the existing connector housing, this utility model aims to provide a quick-locking release connector housing with an improved structure that can effectively solve the above problems.

The blocking ring can switch between a locking position for restricting the radial movement of the movable balls and a releasing position for allowing the radial movement of the movable balls, so as to selectively lock the second connecting pipe through the movable balls.

[0010] Preferably, the movable adjustment mechanism further includes a limiting block, which has a limiting post. The limiting post can be inserted and removed through the sliding plate and engages with a hole opened in the fixing groove to fix the sliding plate to the positioning plate.

[0011] Preferably, the limiting block is further provided with a limiting plate, and the positioning plate is provided with a slot that engages with the limiting plate.

[0012] Preferably, a hollow column is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the connecting pipe, and a telescopic column is slidably connected inside the hollow column. The telescopic column is fixedly connected to the shielding ring through a support column. The structure is used to drive and reset the shielding ring.

[0013] Preferably, a locking post is fixedly provided on the wall of the connecting pipe, and a sliding groove is provided on the movable ball for the locking post to pass through. The sliding groove is used to guide and limit the radial movement of the movable ball.

[0014] Preferably, a sealing sleeve is provided on the outer periphery of the insertion end of the second connecting pipe, which is used to provide a reliable sealing effect after the first connecting pipe and the second connecting pipe are engaged.

[0028] Example: Please refer to Figures 1 to 5This utility model provides a quick-locking release connector housing, including a connecting tube 1 for accommodating the insertion end of a connecting tube 9, with a sealing sleeve 8 on the outer periphery of the insertion end of the connecting tube 9; the quick-locking release connector housing also includes a moving adjustment mechanism 2, which is fixedly connected to the rear side of the connecting tube 1; a plurality of movable balls 7 are radially arranged on the tube wall of the connecting tube 1; a blocking ring 6 is axially slidably sleeved on the outer wall of the connecting tube 1, and the blocking ring 6 can switch between a locking position for restricting the radial movement of the movable balls 7 and a releasing position for allowing the radial movement of the movable balls 7, so as to selectively lock the connecting tube 9 through the movable balls 7; the moving adjustment mechanism 2 includes a positioning plate 204, with a fixing groove 203 on the positioning plate 204; a sliding plate 202 is slidably connected in the fixing groove 203; the rear side of the connecting tube 1 is fixedly connected to the sliding plate 202 through a connecting block 201; the positioning plate 204 is also provided with a positioning hole 205 for installation and fixing.

[0029] Please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 4 The movable ball 7 is radially disposed on the wall of the connecting pipe 1, and a sliding groove 10 is provided on the movable ball 7; the movable ball 7 is passed through by the locking post 11 fixed on the wall of the connecting pipe 1, and the locking post 11 slides in cooperation with the sliding groove 10, the function of which is to guide and restrict the radial movement of the movable ball 7.

[0030] Meanwhile, the blocking ring 6 is axially slidably sleeved on the outer wall of the connecting pipe 1 and correspondingly located outside the movable ball 7. In the assembled state, the blocking ring 6 can be axially slid to the locking position under the drive of the linkage mechanism composed of the hollow column 3, the telescopic column 4 and the support column 5. The hollow column 3 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the connecting pipe 1, the telescopic column 4 is slidably connected inside the hollow column 3, and the support column 5 is fixedly connected to the telescopic column 4 and the blocking ring 6. In the locking position, the inner wall of the blocking ring 6 abuts against the outer surface of the movable ball 7, preventing it from moving radially outward. When the blocking ring 6 slides to the release position, its ring body moves away, allowing the movable ball 7 to move radially outward. This radial and axial linkage structure of the movable ball 7 and the blocking ring 6 ensures that when the connecting pipe 2 is inserted, the movable ball 7 can be lifted by the outer wall of the connecting pipe 2 and locked after the blocking ring 6 is reset, achieving rapid locking.

[0031] As a preferred embodiment, please refer to Figure 3 and Figure 5 The movable adjustment mechanism 2 also includes a limiting block 207, a limiting post 208 is provided on the limiting block 207, and an insertion hole 210 is provided on the fixing groove 203. The limiting post 208 can be inserted and removed through the sliding plate 202 and cooperate with the insertion hole 210 on the fixing groove 203 to fix the sliding plate 202 on the positioning plate 204. As another preferred embodiment, please refer to Figure 5 The limiting block 207 is also provided with a limiting plate 206, and the positioning plate 204 is provided with a slot 209, and the limiting plate 206 and the slot 209 are engaged.

[0032] Working principle: When a locking connection is required, press down on the blocking ring 6. The blocking ring 6 drives the telescopic column 4 to slide and compress within the hollow column 3 via the support column 5. At this time, the blocking ring 6 moves to the release position and no longer radially restricts the movable ball 7. Insert the connecting tube 2 9 with the sealing sleeve 8 into the connecting tube 1. The outer wall of the connecting tube 2 9 will push the movable ball 7 outward. The sliding groove 10 on the movable ball 7 guides it to slide radially outward along the locking column 11. Release the blocking ring 6. The telescopic column 4 pushes the support column 5 upward, causing the blocking ring 6 to return to the locking position. In the locking position, the inner wall of the blocking ring 6 is stuck on the outer side of the movable ball 7, preventing the movable ball 7 from moving radially outward. At this time, the movable ball 7 is simultaneously restricted between the outer wall of the connecting tube 2 9 and the inner wall of the blocking ring 6, thereby achieving rapid locking of the connecting tube 2 9. When release is required, move the blocking ring 6 down again to the release position, releasing the radial restriction on the movable ball 7, and the connecting tube 2 9 can be directly pulled out. When the position of connecting tube 1 needs to be adjusted, first pull the limiting plate 206 to disengage it from the slot 209 in the positioning plate 204, then pull out the limiting block 207 upwards. The limiting block 207 brings out the limiting post 208, so that the limiting post 208 is pulled out from the insertion hole 210 on the fixing groove 203. At this time, the sliding plate 202, which is fixedly connected to connecting tube 1 through the connecting block 201, is slidably connected in the fixing groove 203 and can slide freely. After adjusting the sliding plate 202 to the appropriate position, reinsert the limiting post 208 into the corresponding insertion hole 210, and then snap the limiting plate 206 into the slot 209 to complete the position fixation. The positioning hole 205 is used to install and fix the positioning plate 204 on the external device.
