Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of automotive connector technology, specifically a bent electric vehicle connector. Background Technology
[0002] Electric vehicle connectors are key components ensuring stable electrical system connections and signal transmission, and their performance directly affects the overall operational reliability and safety of electric vehicles. Among these, the connector structure used to connect terminals and cables plays a crucial role in achieving stable and reliable electrical connections.
[0003] Existing connector structures have certain shortcomings in handling the connection and fixation of terminals with different specifications. Some connectors have a relatively simple clamping structure when holding the cable at the end of the terminal, making it difficult to flexibly adjust to different cable specifications, resulting in insufficient clamping and affecting the stability of the electrical connection. Other connectors, while possessing some adjustment capabilities, have complex structures and cumbersome operations, increasing installation difficulty and time costs when connecting and fixing terminals of different specifications, and failing to effectively meet the connection and fixation requirements of different terminal specifications. Therefore, those skilled in the art have provided a bending-type electric vehicle connector to solve the problems mentioned in the background art. Utility Model Content
[0004] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this utility model provides a bending-type electric vehicle connector, which solves the problem that existing connector structures are difficult to flexibly adjust according to cables with different terminal specifications when fixing connections with different specifications, thus increasing installation difficulty and time costs.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a bending type electric vehicle connector, comprising a bending type connector housing, a fixed seat mounted on the bending type connector housing, connecting parts mounted on the upper and lower sides of the fixed seat, a pressure plate rotatably connected to the connecting parts, a sliding groove opened in the pressure plate, a slot opened on the opposite side of the sliding groove in the pressure plate, a first U-shaped plate and a second U-shaped plate correspondingly inserted into the sliding groove of the pressure plate, a protrusion in the same direction installed at the end of the first U-shaped plate, and a through hole in the same direction opened at the end of the second U-shaped plate.
[0006] Preferably, a limiting groove is vertically formed on the side wall of the first U-shaped plate and the second U-shaped plate, and a locking block is slidably engaged in the limiting groove, the locking block engaging with the locking groove.
[0007] Preferably, the first U-shaped plate and the second U-shaped plate are connected by a protrusion and a through hole.
[0008] Preferably, the length of the slot is greater than the length of the block, so that the first U-shaped plate and the second U-shaped plate have a larger adjustment range when they are interlocked.
[0009] Preferably, the groove inside the pressure plate is designed to be inclined, and the inclination angle is adjustable. By changing the inclination angle of the groove, the squeezing force of the first U-shaped plate and the second U-shaped plate when clamping the cable can be adjusted, thereby achieving a more precise clamping effect.
[0010] Preferably, the outer surface of the pressure plate is provided with anti-slip texture to increase the friction when the operator rotates and adjusts the pressure plate, prevent slippage, and improve the safety and convenience of operation.
[0011] Compared with the prior art, the present invention provides a bending-type electric vehicle connector, which has the following advantages:
[0012] By designing a fixed base and a rotatable pressure plate in the housing, and opening a sliding groove and a slot in the pressure plate, combined with a U-shaped plate structure with protrusions, through holes and limiting grooves, after connecting the terminal and the connector housing, the pressure plate clamps the terminal tail cable, and then the first U-shaped plate and the second U-shaped plate are staggered and aligned and connected through the protrusions and through holes, pushing the U-shaped plate inward along the inclined sliding groove, increasing the tension between the first U-shaped plate and the second U-shaped plate to achieve locking, which can make the clamping of the terminal tail cable more secure and can adapt to the connection and fixing requirements of different specifications of terminals.

[0018] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0019] This utility model provides a technical solution: a bent electric vehicle connector. Please refer to [link / reference needed]. Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 The connector includes a bent connector housing 1, a fixed base 2 is mounted on the bent connector housing 1, connectors 3 are mounted on the upper and lower sides of the fixed base 2, a pressure plate 4 is rotatably connected to the connectors 3, a sliding groove 5 is provided in the pressure plate 4, a slot 6 is provided on the opposite side of the sliding groove 5 in the pressure plate 4, a first U-shaped plate 7 and a second U-shaped plate 8 are correspondingly inserted into the sliding groove 5 of the pressure plate 4, a protrusion 701 in the same direction is installed at the end of the first U-shaped plate 7, and a through hole 801 in the same direction is provided at the end of the second U-shaped plate 8.
[0020] Vertical limiting grooves 10 are formed on the side walls of the first U-shaped plate 7 and the second U-shaped plate 8. A locking block 9 is slidably engaged in the limiting groove 10, and the locking block 9 engages with the locking groove 6. The first U-shaped plate 7 and the second U-shaped plate 8 are connected to the through hole 801 through the protrusion 701. The length of the locking groove 6 is greater than the length of the locking block 9, which allows for a larger adjustment range when the first U-shaped plate 7 and the second U-shaped plate 8 are interlocked. The sliding groove 5 formed in the pressure plate 4 is inclined and the inclination angle is adjustable. By changing the inclination angle of the sliding groove 5, the squeezing force of the first U-shaped plate 7 and the second U-shaped plate 8 when clamping the cable can be adjusted, thereby achieving a more precise clamping effect. The outer surface of the pressure plate 4 is provided with anti-slip texture to increase the friction when the operator rotates and adjusts the pressure plate 4, prevent slippage, and improve the safety and convenience of operation.
[0021] The working principle of this device is as follows: A fixed base 2 is installed on the bent connector housing 1. Connectors 3 are installed on the upper and lower sides of the fixed base 2. A pressure plate 4 is rotatably connected to the connector 3. A sliding groove 5 is opened in the thicker end of the pressure plate 4. A slot 6 is opened on the opposite side of the sliding groove 5 in the two pressure plates 4. A first U-shaped plate 7 and a second U-shaped plate 8 are inserted into the sliding groove 5 of the two pressure plates 4 respectively. A protrusion 701 in the same direction is installed at the end of the first U-shaped plate 7. A through hole 801 in the same direction is opened at the end of the second U-shaped plate 8. A limiting groove 10 is vertically opened on the side wall of the first U-shaped plate 7 and the second U-shaped plate 8. A locking block 9 is slidably engaged in the limiting groove 10, and the locking block 9 can engage with the slot 6.
[0022] After the connecting terminal is connected to the bent connector housing 1, the two pressure plates 4 clamp the cable at the end of the terminal. Then, the first U-shaped plate 7 and the second U-shaped plate 8 corresponding to the two pressure plates 4 are staggered and aligned. At this time, the first U-shaped plate 7 and the second U-shaped plate 8 are connected to the through hole 801 through the protrusion 701. Since the slide 5 is inclined, when the first U-shaped plate 7 and the second U-shaped plate 8 are pushed toward one side of the bent connector housing 1, the first U-shaped plate 7 and the second U-shaped plate 8 forming a closed loop are squeezed inward with the inclined slide 5, thereby increasing the tension between the first U-shaped plate 7 and the second U-shaped plate 8, and thus locking the first U-shaped plate 7 and the second U-shaped plate 8, making it clamp the cable at the end of the terminal more firmly. Since the fixed terminal cable, this structure can connect and fix terminals of different specifications.
[0023] After the first U-shaped plate 7 and the second U-shaped plate 8 are pressed to a certain position, the locking block 9 on the first U-shaped plate 7 or the second U-shaped plate 8 can engage with the locking groove 6 in the slide groove 5, thereby locking and limiting the first U-shaped plate 7 or the second U-shaped plate 8, thus preventing the first U-shaped plate 7 or the second U-shaped plate 8 from slipping off. Since the locking block 9 is slidably engaged with the limiting groove 10, after the first U-shaped plate 7 and the second U-shaped plate 8 are slightly moved inward, the locking block 9 can be disengaged from the locking groove 6 by shaking the device in the opposite direction, and then it can be removed.
