Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of protection structure technology, and in particular to an improved cable connector protection structure. Background Technology

[0002] Cable connectors are core connection components used to achieve stable signal or power transmission between cables and equipment, and between cables themselves. They typically have a detachable mating structure, which ensures connection reliability and facilitates installation and maintenance. Multi-to-multi cable connectors are becoming increasingly widely used because they can connect multiple input cables to multiple output cables. For example, quick-connect terminals allow for easy and fast connection with a simple plug-in and press.

[0003] However, existing protection solutions for multi-to-multi cable connectors (quick-connect terminals) still have significant shortcomings and are difficult to adapt to complex practical application requirements: Existing multi-to-multi cable connectors lack a dedicated protective structure, leaving the connector body and the connection point between the cable and the connector exposed to the outside world, making them susceptible to corrosion from dust and moisture. They also lack physical impact protection, making them prone to failure after long-term use. Therefore, this utility model proposes an improved cable connector protection structure to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies by proposing an improved cable connector protection structure.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: An improved cable connector protection structure includes a protective chamber, inside which multiple pairs of connectors are arranged. It also includes a protective component for protecting the multiple pairs of connectors and the connected cables. The protective component is located on one side of the protective chamber and includes several fixing tubes, all located on one side of the protective chamber. Two fixing tubes are located on the other side of the protective chamber. Two and several second fixing holes are respectively opened on both sides of the protective chamber. The second fixing holes are fixedly sleeved with the fixing tubes. Adjacent fixing tubes are arranged with alternating lengths. One end of each fixing tube has a threaded section, and one end of the threaded section has a clamping claw section. A waterproof rubber core is movably sleeved on the inner circular wall of the clamping claw section, and a locking nut is threadedly connected to the outer circular wall of the threaded section.

[0006] As a further embodiment of this utility model, a limiting groove is formed on the top surface of the multi-to-multi connector, two connecting posts are fixedly installed on the top surface of the protective chamber, a pressure plate is provided inside the limiting groove, and two first fixing holes are formed on the top surface of the pressure plate. Screws are inserted into the inner circular wall of the first fixing holes, and the screws are threadedly connected to the connecting posts. The pressure plate presses down on the inside of the limiting groove to fix the multi-to-multi connector.

[0007] As a further embodiment of this utility model, the top surface of the protective compartment is provided with a top cover, and a sealing gasket is fixedly installed on the bottom surface of the top cover.

[0008] As a further embodiment of this utility model, two connecting feet are fixedly installed on both sides of the protective compartment. The top surface of the connecting feet is provided with a threaded hole, and the inner circular wall of the threaded hole is threaded with a threaded post. The top surface of the top cover is provided with a plurality of first circular through holes, and the first circular through holes are movably sleeved with the threaded posts.

[0009] As a further embodiment of this utility model, the fixing tube, the threaded section, and the clamping claw section are integrally formed, and the inner circular wall of the locking nut is tapered at the tail end, so that turning the locking nut can squeeze the clamping claw section and the waterproof core inward.

[0010] As a further embodiment of this utility model, mounting ears are fixedly installed on both sides of the protective compartment.

[0011] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects: 1. This utility model forms a protective space designed for multi-to-multi connectors through a combination structure of protective chamber, top cover, and sealing gasket. The incoming and outgoing cables are sealed and protected, which can effectively isolate the intrusion of external dust and moisture into the connector body and cable connection. At the same time, the protective chamber can resist external physical impact, significantly improve the anti-interference ability and service life of the connector, and solve the problem that the connector is easily affected by environmental factors and thus fails in the prior art.

[0012] 2. The mounting tubes in the protection assembly adopt a staggered layout design of long and short tubes to accommodate the use of multiple cables. When connecting multiple cables, it can avoid spatial conflicts between adjacent mounting tubes and cables, making the cable installation process smoother. At the same time, it ensures that the cables are neatly arranged after connection, preventing loose connections or poor contact caused by compression, which is quite practical.

[0018] Reference Figures 1-6An improved cable connector protection structure includes: a protective chamber 1, with multiple-pair connectors 2 installed inside the protective chamber 1 (i.e., quick-connect terminals of the prior art), and a protective component for protecting the multiple-pair connectors 2 and the connected cables. The protective component is located on one side of the protective chamber 1 and includes: several fixing tubes 3, all of which are located on one side of the protective chamber 1. Two fixing tubes 3 are located on the other side of the protective chamber 1. Two and several second fixing holes 18 are respectively opened on both sides of the protective chamber 1. The second fixing holes 18 are fixedly sleeved with the fixing tubes 3. Adjacent fixing tubes 3 are arranged with alternating lengths. One end of the fixing tube 3 is provided with a threaded section 4, and one end of the threaded section 4 is provided with a clamping claw section 5. A waterproof rubber core 6 is movably sleeved on the inner circular wall of the clamping claw section 5, and a locking nut 7 is threadedly connected to the outer circular wall of the threaded section 4.

[0019] In this embodiment, a limiting groove 8 is formed on the top surface of the multi-to-multi connector 2, and two connecting posts 9 are fixedly installed on the top surface of the protective chamber 1. A pressure plate 10 is provided inside the limiting groove 8, and two first fixing holes 11 are formed on the top surface of the pressure plate 10. Screws 12 are inserted into the inner circular wall of the first fixing holes 11, and the screws 12 are threadedly connected to the connecting posts 9. The pressure plate 10 presses down on the inside of the limiting groove 8 to fix the multi-to-multi connector 2. A top cover 13 is provided on the top surface of the protective chamber 1, and a sealing gasket 14 is fixedly installed on the bottom surface of the top cover 13. Two connecting feet 15 are fixedly installed on both sides of the protective chamber 1. The top surface of the connecting feet 15 is provided with a threaded hole. The inner circular wall of the threaded hole is threaded with a threaded post 16. The top surface of the top cover 13 is provided with several first circular through holes. The first circular through holes are movably connected with the threaded post 16. The fixing tube 3, the threaded section 4 and the clamping claw section 5 are integrally formed. The inner circular wall of the locking nut 7 is set with a tapered end, so that tightening the locking nut 7 can squeeze the clamping claw section 5 and the waterproof rubber core 6 inward. The two sides of the protective chamber 1 are fixedly installed with mounting ears 17.

[0020] As can be seen from the above description, the embodiments of this utility model achieve the following technical effects: With the protective chamber 1 in place, when the user needs to use the multi-to-multi connector 2, the multi-to-multi connector 2 can not only use 2 inlets and 8 outlets, but also 3 outlets and 9 outlets (the number of fixed tubes 3 on both sides of the protective chamber 1 can be increased or decreased accordingly).

[0021] Thus, the multi-to-multi connector 2 is pressed down and fixed by the pressure plate 10 and the screw 12, which is screwed into the first fixing hole 11 and the connecting post 9. Similarly, the fixing method of the pressure plate 10 can be applied when connecting a 3-in-9-out connector.

[0022] Next, open the quick-release head of the multi-to-multi connector 2. Simultaneously, pass the connecting wire through the inside of the locking nut 7, waterproof core 6, threaded section 4, and fixing tube 3 into the interior of the protective chamber 1, and connect it to the corresponding terminal of the multi-to-multi connector 2. Quickly connect by pressing the quick-release head of the multi-to-multi connector 2. Then, rotate the locking nut 7. The locking nut 7 and threaded section 4 move forward together. The end of the inner circular wall of the locking nut 7 is tapered, so the end of the locking nut 7 squeezes the clamping claw section 5 and the waterproof core 6. Thus, the waterproof core 6 seals the wire and the threaded section 4 and clamping claw section 5 (the length of the waterproof core 6 can be increased to ensure the sealing effect). Finally, tighten the locking nut 7 to complete the connection of the cable.

[0023] Through multiple combined structures, a protective space is formed for the multi-to-multi connector 2: both the incoming and outgoing cables are sealed and protected, which can effectively isolate the intrusion of external dust and moisture into the connector body and cable connection. At the same time, the protective chamber can resist external physical impact, significantly improving the connector's anti-interference ability and service life, and solving the problem that the connector is susceptible to failure due to environmental factors in the existing technology.

[0024] Similarly, when connecting adjacent cables, the staggered arrangement of the fixed tubes 3 avoids conflicts between components, making the cable installation process smoother and ensuring that the cables are neatly arranged after connection. Thus, after connecting the incoming line (the other side of the protective chamber 1), the top cover 13 is fixed by the threaded post 16 and the connecting foot 15, and the sealing gasket 14 seals the top cover 13 and the protective chamber 1, thereby completing the overall sealing and realizing many-to-many incoming and outgoing lines, which is quite practical.

[0025] The foregoing has shown and described the basic principles, main features, and advantages of this utility model. Those skilled in the art should understand that this utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. The embodiments and descriptions in the specification are merely illustrative of the principles of this utility model. Various changes and modifications can be made to this utility model without departing from its spirit and scope, and all such changes and modifications fall within the scope of the claimed utility model.
