Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of connector assembly technology, and in particular to a connector fixing bracket. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, with the widespread adoption of vehicle intelligence and the continuous improvement of its level, vehicle functions are becoming increasingly diversified, leading to an increase in the number of connectors required on vehicles, resulting in situations where multiple connectors are centrally located.

[0003] In related technologies, each connector is fixed in a designated position by an independent mounting bracket, and the mounting bracket is usually assembled by mating with mounting holes. However, when there are a large number of connectors to be assembled, a corresponding number of mounting brackets and mounting holes need to be set, which results in a large number of mounting holes opened at the assembly position, affecting local strength and thus restricting the assembly position of the connector. Utility Model Content

[0004] This application aims to at least address one of the technical problems existing in the prior art. To this end, one objective of this application is to provide a connector mounting bracket that can meet the installation requirements of multiple sensors, enabling centralized arrangement of connectors, and reducing the number of mounting holes required when the connector mounting bracket is connected and mated with the mounting position.

[0005] According to an embodiment of this application, a connector fixing bracket is used to install a connector and connect and fix it to a mounting position. The connector fixing bracket includes: a first mounting bracket, the first mounting bracket having a first mounting portion for installing the connector, and the first mounting bracket having a fixing portion that cooperates with the mounting position; at least one second mounting bracket, each second mounting bracket having a second mounting portion for installing the connector, and the second mounting bracket and the first mounting bracket being arranged and connected along a first direction.

[0006] According to the connector fixing bracket of the present application embodiment, connectors can be installed by a first mounting bracket and a second mounting bracket respectively, and the first mounting bracket and the second mounting bracket can be connected and cooperated. The first mounting bracket and the second mounting bracket are arranged adjacent to each other, so that the connectors fixed on the first mounting bracket and the connectors fixed on the second mounting bracket are arranged in a concentrated manner. Moreover, the connector fixing bracket is assembled with the mounting position only by the fixing part provided on the first mounting bracket, which helps to reduce the number of mounting structures provided at the mounting position, can reduce the processing cost at the mounting position, and can also reduce the restriction of the connector fixing bracket by the surrounding environment of the mounting position.

[0007] According to some embodiments of this application, the first mounting bracket is provided with a first connecting seat and a second connecting seat on both sides of the first direction; the second mounting bracket is provided with a third connecting seat and a fourth connecting seat on both sides of the first direction; wherein, the first connecting seat can be connected and cooperated with the third connecting seat to connect the first mounting bracket and the second mounting bracket; and / or, in two adjacently arranged second mounting brackets, the third connecting seat in one second mounting bracket is connected and cooperated with the fourth connecting seat in the other second mounting bracket to connect the two second mounting brackets.

[0008] According to some embodiments of this application, the first connecting seat and the fourth connecting seat have the same structure, and the second connecting seat and the third connecting seat have the same structure. This improves the versatility of the first and second mounting brackets and enriches the assembly and mating methods between them.

[0009] According to some embodiments of this application, the first connecting seat is provided with a first sliding groove extending along a second direction, and the second connecting seat is provided with a first sliding rail extending along the second direction; the third connecting seat is provided with a second sliding rail extending along the second direction, and the fourth connecting seat is provided with a second sliding groove extending along the second direction, the second direction intersecting the first direction; wherein, the first sliding groove can slide with the second sliding rail along the second direction; the second sliding groove can slide with the first sliding rail along the second direction; in the two second mounting brackets, the second sliding rail in one second mounting bracket can slide with the second sliding groove in the other second mounting bracket.

[0010] According to some embodiments of this application, the first connecting seat is provided with a first snap-fit ​​arm, the second connecting seat is provided with a first snap-fit ​​protrusion; the third connecting seat is provided with a second snap-fit ​​protrusion, and the fourth connecting seat is provided with a second snap-fit ​​arm; wherein, the first snap-fit ​​arm can engage with the second snap-fit ​​protrusion; the second snap-fit ​​arm can engage with the second snap-fit ​​protrusion; in the two second mounting brackets, the second snap-fit ​​arm in one second mounting bracket can engage with the second snap-fit ​​protrusion in the other second mounting bracket.

[0011] According to some embodiments of this application, there are at least two first mounting brackets, and the plurality of first mounting brackets are arranged along the first direction; when two first mounting brackets are spaced apart along the first direction, at least one second mounting bracket is connected between the two first mounting brackets; when two first mounting brackets are arranged adjacent to each other along the first direction, the second mounting bracket is connected to one side of one of the two first mounting brackets in the first direction. Therefore, the assembly reliability between the connector fixing bracket and the mounting position can be improved by providing multiple first mounting brackets.

[0012] According to some embodiments of this application, the first mounting portion is disposed on the side of the first mounting bracket away from the mounting position, and the first mounting portion is provided with a first snap-fit ​​portion for snap-fitting with the connector; and / or, the second mounting portion is disposed on the side of the second mounting bracket away from the mounting position, and the second mounting portion is provided with a second snap-fit ​​portion for snap-fitting with the connector.

[0013] According to some embodiments of this application, the connector mounting bracket further includes a sealing element disposed on the side surface of the first mounting bracket where the fixing portion is located, and used to form a seal between the first mounting bracket and the mounting position. Thus, the sealing performance of the mating area between the connector mounting bracket and the mounting position is improved by the sealing element, providing protection for the connector.

[0014] According to some embodiments of this application, the fixing part is disposed on the side surface of the first mounting bracket opposite to the mounting position, and the fixing part can pass through the sealing member and be integrally disposed with the first mounting bracket.

[0015] According to some embodiments of this application, the first mounting bracket is provided with a first weight-reducing hole extending along a second direction; and / or, the second mounting bracket is provided with a second weight-reducing hole extending along a second direction.

Detailed Implementation

[0019] The embodiments of this application 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 are only used to explain this application, and should not be construed as limiting this application.

[0020] The following is for reference. Figures 1-6 Describes a connector mounting bracket 100 according to an embodiment of this application.

[0021] The connector mounting bracket 100 is used to install the connector and is connected and fixed to the mounting position to achieve assembly and fixation of the connector relative to the mounting position. In other words, the connector mounting bracket 100 is the mounting carrier of the connector, and the connector is assembled and fixed in the preset position (i.e., the mounting position) through the connector mounting bracket 100.

[0022] It should be noted that the "mounting position" mentioned above refers to the assembly location where the connector mounting bracket 100 is installed. For example, when the connector needs to be assembled in a vehicle, the mounting position is the mounting structure in the vehicle (such as the body). The specific location can be designed according to the area where the connector needs to be placed.

[0023] Currently, with the widespread adoption and increasing sophistication of vehicle intelligence, vehicle functions are becoming increasingly diversified, leading to a rise in the number of connectors required and resulting in situations where multiple connectors are centrally located. In related technologies, each connector is fixed to a designated position using an independent mounting bracket, which typically mates with mounting holes for assembly. However, when a large number of connectors need to be assembled, a corresponding number of mounting brackets and mounting holes are required, resulting in a large number of mounting holes at the assembly location, affecting local strength and thus limiting the connector's assembly position. The aforementioned "centralized arrangement of multiple connectors" refers to multiple connectors arranged within the same area, with a compact layout (i.e., short spacing between them).

[0024] According to an embodiment of this application, the connector mounting bracket 100 includes a first mounting bracket 1 and at least one second mounting bracket 2.

[0025] Combination Figures 1-6 As shown, the first mounting bracket 1 is provided with a first mounting part 11, and the first mounting part 11 is used to install a connector. The first mounting bracket 1 is also provided with a fixing part 12 that cooperates with the mounting position, so that the first mounting bracket 1 can be assembled and fixed at the mounting position through the fixing part 12, thereby realizing the assembly and fixation of the first mounting bracket 1. Each second mounting bracket 2 is provided with a second mounting part 21, and the second mounting part 21 is used to install a connector. The second mounting bracket 2 and the first mounting bracket 1 are arranged and connected along the first direction to assemble the second mounting bracket 2 onto the first mounting bracket 1, so that the second mounting bracket 2 can be fixed at the mounting position through the first mounting bracket 1.

[0026] Furthermore, both the first mounting bracket 1 and the second mounting bracket 2 are used to mount connectors (not shown in the figure). The connector fixed on the first mounting bracket 1 is the first connector, and the connector fixed on the second mounting bracket 2 is the second connector, so as to distinguish the connectors fixed on the first mounting bracket 1 and the second mounting bracket 2. The first connector and the second connector may have the same or different structures. The type and structure of the connector are not limited here, as long as they can be assembled and fixed on the corresponding mounting bracket (i.e., the first mounting bracket 1 or the second mounting bracket 2) through the mounting structure (i.e., the first mounting part 11 and the second mounting part 21 mentioned above).

[0027] Specifically, the first connector is mounted on the first mounting part 11, and the second connector is mounted on the second mounting part 21. Thus, the connector holder can mount connectors via the first mounting bracket 1 and the second mounting bracket 2 respectively, satisfying the assembly requirement of assembling multiple connectors simultaneously in the connector holder 100. The first mounting bracket 1 is mounted at the mounting position via the fixing part 12, achieving a mounting fit between the first mounting bracket 1 and the mounting position. Furthermore, the first mounting bracket 1 and the second mounting bracket 2 are connected, allowing the second mounting bracket 2 to be fixed relative to the mounting position via the first mounting bracket 1, eliminating the need for a direct connection between the second mounting bracket 2 and the mounting position. This reduces the number of mounting structures required at the mounting position.

[0028] It is understandable that when the mounting structure at the mounting position is constructed as a mounting hole, the connector fixing bracket 100 can be connected and cooperated with the mounting hole through the fixing part 12 on the first mounting bracket 1 to realize the assembly and fixing of the connector fixing bracket 100 at the mounting position. In other words, the number of mounting structures set at the mounting position can match the number of the first mounting brackets 1, which helps to reduce the number of mounting holes opened at the mounting position (i.e., the corresponding area of ​​the second mounting bracket 2 does not need to be set with a separate mounting structure), reduce the cost of opening holes, and improve the space utilization rate at the mounting position.

[0029] The connector mounting bracket 100 includes a first mounting bracket 1 and a second mounting bracket 2. The second mounting bracket 2 is connected to one end of the first mounting bracket 1 in a first direction. The first mounting bracket 1 is used to mount a first connector, and the second mounting bracket 2 is used to mount a second connector, so that two connectors (i.e., the aforementioned first connector and second connector) can be mounted simultaneously through the connector mounting bracket 100. Simultaneously, the connector mounting bracket 100 is assembled and fixed to the mounting position via a fixing part 12 provided on the first mounting bracket 1, allowing the second mounting bracket 2 to be indirectly assembled to the mounting position through the first mounting bracket 1, thereby reducing the number of mounting structures required at the mounting position.

[0030] Furthermore, when the connector fixing bracket 100 is provided with one first mounting bracket 1 and two second mounting brackets 2, the two second mounting brackets 2 can be connected to the first mounting bracket 1 on the same side in the first direction, or they can be connected to the first mounting bracket 1 on both sides in the first direction respectively.

[0031] It should be noted that when multiple connectors are arranged in a concentrated manner, there may be situations where the structure and space at the installation position are limited, making it impossible to form multiple installation structures (such as mounting holes) at the installation position, thus failing to meet the assembly requirements of arranging multiple connectors at the preset installation position simultaneously.

[0032] According to the connector fixing bracket 100 of the present application embodiment, connectors can be installed through the first mounting bracket 1 and the second mounting bracket 2 respectively. The first mounting bracket 1 and the second mounting bracket 2 can be connected and cooperated. The first mounting bracket 1 and the second mounting bracket 2 are arranged adjacent to each other, so that the connector fixed on the first mounting bracket 1 (i.e., the first connector mentioned above) and the connector fixed on the second mounting bracket 2 (i.e., the second connector mentioned above) are arranged in a concentrated manner. Moreover, the connector fixing bracket 100 is assembled with the mounting position only through the fixing part 12 provided on the first mounting bracket 1, which helps to reduce the number of mounting structures provided at the mounting position, can reduce the processing cost at the mounting position, and can also reduce the limitation of the connector fixing bracket 100 on the surrounding environment of the mounting position.

[0033] Combination Figure 1 , Figure 4 , Figure 5 as well as Figure 6 As shown, in some embodiments of this application, the first mounting bracket 1 is provided with a first connecting seat 111 and a second connecting seat 112 on both sides of the first direction, and the second mounting bracket 2 is provided with a third connecting seat 211 and a fourth connecting seat 212 on both sides of the first direction.

[0034] The first connecting seat 111 can be connected and cooperated with the third connecting seat 211 to connect the first mounting bracket 1 and the second mounting bracket 2; the second connecting seat 112 can be connected and cooperated with the third connecting seat 211 to connect the first mounting bracket 1 and the second mounting bracket 2; in two adjacently arranged second mounting brackets 2, the third connecting seat 211 in one second mounting bracket 2 is connected and cooperated with the fourth connecting seat 212 in the other second mounting bracket 2 to connect the two second mounting brackets 2.

[0035] In other words, by connecting and cooperating the first connecting seat 111 with the third connecting seat 211, and the second connecting seat 112 with the fourth connecting seat 212, the assembly between the first mounting bracket 1 and the second mounting bracket 2 can be achieved; by connecting and cooperating the third connecting group with the fourth connecting seat 212, the assembly between the two second mounting brackets 2 can be achieved. This enriches the assembly methods between the first mounting bracket 1 and the second mounting bracket 2, and between the second mounting brackets 2 and the second mounting bracket 2, thereby improving the versatility and adaptability of the connector fixing bracket 100.

[0036] It is understood that the first connecting seat 111 and the second connecting seat 112 are respectively disposed on both sides of the first mounting bracket 1 in the first direction, so that the second mounting bracket 2 can be connected to either side of the first mounting bracket 1 in the first direction. The connection and cooperation method between the first mounting bracket 1 and the second mounting bracket 2 can be set according to the arrangement requirements of the first connector and the second connector at the mounting position.

[0037] Meanwhile, multiple second mounting brackets 2 can be connected to one side of the first connecting seat 111 in the first direction. The multiple second mounting brackets 2 can be connected and cooperated in sequence along the first direction, and one of the second mounting brackets 2 located at the end of the first direction is connected and cooperated with the first mounting bracket 1, so that the multiple second mounting brackets 2 can be assembled to the mounting position through one first mounting bracket 1.

[0038] In a further embodiment of this application, the first connector 111 and the fourth connector 212 have the same structure, and the second connector 112 and the third connector 211 have the same structure, thereby improving the connection structure (i.e., the versatility of the first connector 111, the second connector 112, the third connector 211, and the fourth connector 212). One of the first connector 111 and the fourth connector 212 can be connected to one of the second connector 112 and the third connector 211 according to assembly requirements, to achieve connection between the first mounting bracket 1 and the first mounting bracket 1, between the first mounting bracket 1 and the second mounting bracket 2, and between the second mounting bracket 2 and the second mounting bracket 2. Simultaneously, multiple mounting brackets (i.e., the first mounting bracket 1 or the second mounting bracket 2) can be integrated into the connector fixing bracket 100.

[0039] For example, when the connector mounting bracket 100 is provided with two first mounting brackets 1 and one second mounting bracket 2, the two first mounting brackets 1 can be connected and fitted together along the first direction, and then the second mounting bracket 2 can be assembled onto one of the two first mounting brackets 1. Alternatively, the two first mounting brackets 1 can be connected to the two sides of the second mounting bracket 2 in the first direction respectively. Thus, three combination assembly methods can be realized.

[0040] It should be noted that the connector fixing bracket 100 may also be provided with multiple first mounting brackets 1. The number of first mounting brackets 1 can be set according to the number of mounting structures at the mounting position, so that each first mounting bracket 1 can be connected and cooperated with the mounting structure through the fixing part 12 to fix the connector fixing bracket 100 at the mounting position.

[0041] In a further embodiment of this application, the first connecting seat 111 is provided with a first slide groove 113 extending along the second direction, and the second connecting seat 112 is provided with a first slide rail 114 extending along the second direction; the third connecting seat 211 is provided with a second slide rail 213 extending along the second direction, and the fourth connecting seat 212 is provided with a second slide groove 214 extending along the second direction, wherein the second direction intersects with the first direction. Preferably, the first direction and the second direction are perpendicular to each other.

[0042] Furthermore, the first slide groove 113 can slide and engage with the second slide rail 213 along the second direction, thereby connecting the first connecting seat 111 and the third connecting seat 211; the second slide groove 214 can slide and engage with the first slide rail 114 along the second direction, thereby connecting the second connecting seat 112 and the fourth connecting seat 212; in the two second mounting brackets 2, the second slide rail 213 in one second mounting bracket 2 can slide and engage with the second slide groove 214 in the other second mounting bracket 2 to connect the two second mounting brackets 2. Similarly, in the two first mounting brackets 1, the first slide rail 114 in one first mounting bracket 1 can slide and engage with the first slide groove 113 in the other first mounting bracket 1 to connect the two first mounting brackets 1.

[0043] It is understandable that the sliding fit between the slide groove and the slide rail is simple and facilitates the connection and fit between the first mounting bracket 1 and the second mounting bracket 2, between the first mounting bracket 1 and the first mounting bracket 1, and between the second mounting bracket 2 and the second mounting bracket 2.

[0044] Combination Figure 1 and Figure 6 As shown, when the sliding structure is slidably engaged, part of the slide rail can be embedded in the slide groove to prevent the two mounting brackets from detaching in the first direction, thus ensuring the reliability of the connection between the two adjacent mounting brackets.

[0045] Combination Figures 1-6 As shown, in some embodiments of this application, the first connector 111 is provided with a first snap-fit ​​arm, the second connector 112 is provided with a first snap-fit ​​protrusion 116; the third connector 211 is provided with a second snap-fit ​​protrusion 215, and the fourth connector 212 is provided with a second snap-fit ​​arm 216.

[0046] Furthermore, the first snap-fit ​​arm can engage with the second snap-fit ​​protrusion 215 to achieve a snap-fit ​​engagement between the first mounting bracket 1 and the second mounting bracket 2; the second snap-fit ​​arm 216 can engage with the second snap-fit ​​protrusion 215 to achieve a snap-fit ​​engagement between the first mounting bracket 1 and the second mounting bracket 2; in the two second mounting brackets 2, the second snap-fit ​​arm 216 of one second mounting bracket 2 can engage with the second snap-fit ​​protrusion 215 of the other second mounting bracket 2 to achieve a snap-fit ​​engagement between the two second mounting brackets 2. Simultaneously, in the two first mounting brackets 1, the first snap-fit ​​arm on one first mounting bracket 1 can engage with the first snap-fit ​​protrusion 116 on the other first mounting bracket 1 to achieve a snap-fit ​​engagement between the two first mounting brackets 1.

[0047] The first connecting seat 111 and the fourth connecting seat 212 have the same structure, and the second connecting seat 112 and the third connecting seat 211 have the same structure. The snap-fit ​​engagement between the snap-fit ​​arm structure (i.e., the first snap-fit ​​arm and the second snap-fit ​​arm 216 mentioned above) and the snap-fit ​​protrusion structure (i.e., the first snap-fit ​​protrusion 116 and the second snap-fit ​​protrusion 215 mentioned above) has high reliability, ensuring the connection reliability between the two mounting brackets. It should be noted that the structure of the first connecting seat 111, the second connecting seat 112, the third connecting seat 211, and the fourth connecting seat 212 is not limited to this, as long as it can achieve the installation and engagement between the two mounting brackets.

[0048] Combination Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, in a further embodiment of this application, the snap-fit ​​arms (i.e., the first snap-fit ​​arm and the second snap-fit ​​arm 216 mentioned above) extend along the second direction. The snap-fit ​​arms can avoid the structure that defines the groove (i.e., the first groove 113 and the second groove 214 mentioned above) in the connector (i.e., the first connector 111 and the fourth connector 212 mentioned above). The snap-fit ​​protrusions (i.e., the first snap-fit ​​protrusion 116 and the second snap-fit ​​protrusion 215 mentioned above) protrude along the first direction. The snap-fit ​​protrusions can avoid the slide rail structure in the connector (i.e., the second connector 112 and the fourth connector 212 mentioned above) to prevent interference between the snap-fit ​​structure and the groove structure in the connector fixing bracket 100.

[0049] It is understandable that the snap-fit ​​arm and snap-fit ​​protrusion can snap into each other after sliding and engaging with the slide rail and slide groove to a preset position, so that the two mounting brackets can be engaged by sliding engagement, which helps to improve the connection reliability between the two mounting brackets.

[0050] In some embodiments of this application, there are multiple first mounting brackets 1 (i.e., at least two), and the multiple first mounting brackets 1 are arranged along a first direction. Each first mounting bracket 1 has the same structure, that is, each first mounting bracket 1 has a fixing part 12. When the connector fixing bracket 100 is provided with multiple first mounting brackets 1, the multiple fixing parts 12 can be connected and cooperated with the mounting structure at the mounting position, which helps to improve the assembly reliability and stability of the connector fixing bracket 100 at the mounting position.

[0051] Furthermore, when the two first mounting brackets 1 are arranged at intervals along the first direction, at least one second mounting bracket 2 is connected between the two first mounting brackets 1; when the two first mounting brackets 1 are arranged adjacent to each other along the first direction, the second mounting bracket 2 is connected to one side of one of the two first mounting brackets 1 in the first direction.

[0052] It is understood that a set of connector fixing brackets 100 can be provided with multiple mounting brackets (i.e., the first mounting bracket 1 and the second mounting bracket 2 mentioned above). When a set of connector fixing brackets 100 is provided with multiple first mounting brackets 1, multiple fixing parts 12 can be provided in the connector fixing brackets 100, so that the connector fixing brackets 100 can be assembled to the mounting position through multiple fixing parts 12, thereby improving the assembly reliability of the connector fixing brackets 100.

[0053] The first mounting bracket 1 and the second mounting bracket 2 are arranged sequentially in the first direction. The specific arrangement can be designed according to the assembly requirements of the connector and the location where a mounting structure can be formed at the mounting position, and is not limited thereto. It should be noted that at least one second mounting bracket 2 needs to be provided in a set of connector fixing brackets 100, so that at least one of the multiple connectors fixed on the connector fixing bracket 100 is assembled and fixed by the second mounting bracket 2. That is to say, the number of connectors fixed by the connector fixing bracket 100 is greater than the number of mounting structures provided at the mounting position.

[0054] Combination Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, in some embodiments of this application, the first mounting portion 11 is disposed on the side of the first mounting bracket 1 away from the mounting position, so that the first connector is disposed in an area suitable for avoiding the mounting position. The first mounting portion 11 is provided with a first snap-fit ​​portion 118, which is used to snap-fit ​​with the connector to fix the first connector at the first mounting portion 11 through snap-fit ​​engagement. This assembly method is simple and highly reliable. The first snap-fit ​​portion 118 can be constructed as an elastic snap-fit ​​arm, allowing it to elastically deform when the first connector is installed and engaged with the first mounting portion 11, and elastically return to its original position after the first connector is assembled.

[0055] It should be noted that the structure of the first snap-fit ​​part 118 is not limited to the elastic snap-fit ​​arm, but can also be constructed as other snap-fit ​​structures that fix the first connector, such as a slot.

[0056] Combination Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, in some embodiments of this application, the second mounting part 21 is disposed on the side of the second mounting bracket 2 away from the mounting position, so as to place the second connector in an area suitable for avoiding the mounting position, and the second mounting part 21 is provided with a second snap-fit ​​part 218, which is used to snap-fit ​​with the connector to snap-fit ​​and fix the second connector at the second mounting part 21 through the snap-fit ​​engagement method. The assembly method is simple and highly reliable.

[0057] Furthermore, the second snap-fit ​​portion 218 can be configured as a snap-fit, which engages with the second connector when the second connector is installed on the second mounting portion 21 to secure the second connector at the second mounting portion. Alternatively, the second snap-fit ​​portion 218 can be configured as other snap-fit ​​structures that can constrain and secure the second connector, such as a slot.

[0058] In the connector mounting bracket 100, the first mounting part 11 and the second mounting part 21 are provided to protrude from the side away from the mounting position, so as to facilitate the connection and engagement of the connector with the first mounting part 11 or the second mounting part 21.

[0059] The first mounting part 11 and the second mounting part 21 can also be constructed as a seat with a sliding groove structure and a snap-fit ​​structure to improve the assembly reliability of the connector at the connector fixing bracket 100. It should be noted that the specific structure of the mounting part in this application is not limited to this, as long as it can meet the assembly and fixing of the connector at the connector fixing bracket 100.

[0060] Combination Figures 1-6 As shown, in some embodiments of this application, the first mounting part 11 and the second mounting part 21 have different structures, so that the first mounting bracket 1 and the second mounting bracket 2 can respectively meet the assembly requirements of connectors with different structures.

[0061] Combination Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown in a further embodiment of this application, the first mounting bracket 1 is further provided with a reinforcing rib 13. The reinforcing rib 13 is provided on the side surface of the first mounting bracket 1 where the first mounting part 11 is provided. The reinforcing rib 13 can improve the structural strength of the first mounting bracket 1, thereby improving the assembly reliability and stability of the connector by the first mounting bracket 1.

[0062] Reference Figure 1 As shown in a specific embodiment of this application, the first mounting bracket 1 is provided with two reinforcing ribs 13, which are respectively disposed on both sides of the first mounting portion 11 in a first direction, and the two reinforcing ribs 13 extend in an L-shape and a U-shape, respectively. The reinforcing ribs 13 can be used to support the connector assembled at the first mounting portion 11 to prevent the connector from shaking, thereby improving the installation stability of the connector at the first mounting portion 11. At the same time, the reinforcing ribs 13 can also guide and limit the installation of the connector at the first mounting portion 11, thus assisting in connector assembly.

[0063] It should be noted that the location and extension direction of the reinforcing rib 13 on the first mounting bracket 1 are not limited to this, and can be designed according to the strength of the first mounting bracket 1, the avoidance of connectors, and other requirements. At the same time, a reinforcing structure (such as ribs) can also be provided on the second mounting bracket 2.

[0064] Combination Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, in some embodiments of this application, the connector fixing bracket 100 further includes a sealing member 3, which is disposed on the side surface of the first mounting bracket 1 on which the fixing part 12 is provided, and the sealing member 3 is used to form a seal between the first mounting bracket 1 and the mounting position.

[0065] It is understandable that a mounting structure is formed at the mounting position for connecting and engaging with the fixing part 12. The mounting structure is usually constructed as a mounting hole, and the fixing part 12 is constructed as a snap-fit ​​structure (such as a snap-fit ​​or snap-fit ​​seat). The snap-fit ​​structure can be assembled at the mounting hole by snap-fit.

[0066] In this application, a sealing element 3 is provided between the first mounting bracket 1 and the mounting position. The sealing element 3 can form a seal at the mounting hole, improve the sealing performance of the connection between the mounting position and the connector fixing bracket 100, thereby avoiding problems such as water ingress at the mounting hole, facilitating the dry and wet partition design at the mounting position, and improving the safety of the connector.

[0067] In a further embodiment of this application, the sealing element 3 is constructed as a sealing gasket, and the sealing gasket is passed through the fixing part 12, such that the sealing area formed by the sealing gasket between the first mounting bracket 1 and the mounting position is located on the circumferential outer side of the fixing part 12, so as to avoid the sealing gasket from the fixing part 12 while ensuring the sealing effect between the first mounting bracket 1 and the mounting position.

[0068] In some embodiments of this application, the fixing part 12 is disposed on the side surface of the first mounting bracket 1 opposite to the mounting position. The fixing part 12 can be provided with a sealing member 3 and is integrally disposed with the first mounting bracket 1, thereby improving the connection reliability between the fixing part 12 and the first mounting bracket 1 and helping to improve the assembly reliability of the connector fixing bracket 100 at the mounting position.

[0069] The fixing part 12 can be integrally injection molded with the first mounting bracket 1.

[0070] In some embodiments of this application, the first mounting bracket 1 is provided with a first weight-reducing hole 117 that extends through the second direction to achieve a lightweight design at the first mounting bracket 1, thereby reducing the weight of the first mounting bracket 1 while ensuring the structural strength of the first mounting bracket 1.

[0071] It is understandable that, since the first mounting bracket 1 needs to be provided with connecting structures (i.e., the first connecting seat 111 and the second connecting seat 112 mentioned above) on both sides of the first direction, the first mounting bracket 1 needs to have a certain thickness. By providing a first weight-reducing hole 117 that runs through the second direction on the first mounting bracket 1, the weight of the first mounting bracket 1 can be reduced, and the first weight-reducing hole 117 can avoid the connecting structures provided on the first mounting bracket 1.

[0072] In some embodiments of this application, the second mounting bracket 2 is provided with a second weight-reducing hole 217 that extends through the second direction to achieve a lightweight design at the second mounting bracket 2, thereby reducing the weight of the second mounting bracket 2 while ensuring the structural strength of the second mounting bracket 2.

[0073] It is understandable that since the second mounting bracket 2 needs to be provided with connecting structures on both sides of the first direction (i.e. the third connecting seat 211 and the fourth connecting seat 212 mentioned above), the second mounting bracket 2 needs to have a certain thickness. By providing a second weight-reducing hole 217 that runs through the second direction on the second mounting bracket 2, the weight of the second mounting bracket 2 can be reduced, and the second weight-reducing hole 217 can avoid the connecting structures provided on the second mounting bracket 2.

[0074] Combination Figures 1-6 As shown, it should be noted that during the assembly process of the connector fixing bracket 100 and the mounting position, multiple mounting brackets in the connector fixing bracket 100 (i.e., the first mounting bracket 1 and the second mounting bracket 2 mentioned above) can be connected and matched first, and then the connector can be assembled and fixed on its corresponding mounting bracket. Finally, the connector fixing bracket 100 and the connector can be assembled and fixed together at the mounting position through the fixing part 12. The assembly method is simple and highly reliable, which can reduce the risk of incorrect connector assembly.
