Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of automotive connector technology, and in particular to a low-voltage connector for a new energy vehicle controller. Background Technology

[0002] In existing technologies, new energy vehicles refer to automobiles that use unconventional vehicle fuels as a power source and integrate advanced technologies in vehicle power control and drive, forming vehicles with advanced technical principles, new technologies, and new structures. Current new energy pure electric vehicles are driven by electric energy, and the power system inside the vehicle transmits electrical energy through connectors and wiring harnesses. Therefore, the various power systems inside the vehicle have high requirements for connectors. As the "brain" of a new energy vehicle, the inverter needs to communicate with controllers such as the motor, parking brake, and vehicle. Therefore, the low-voltage connector of the inverter needs to lead out wiring harnesses in multiple directions. Conventional automotive inverters are equipped with multiple low-voltage connectors, including plugs and sockets. However, the plug and socket structures used in common low-voltage connectors have poor connection stability and are prone to loosening after long-term use. In addition, the sealing effect between the connected structures is poor. When water flows to the connection between the plug and socket, it is easy to cause water contact and short circuit.

[0003] Chinese utility model patent application number 202421335925.7 discloses a low-voltage connector for a new energy vehicle controller, comprising a socket and a plug. One end of the socket has a mounting groove, and the inner end of the mounting groove has a slot. Multiple insertion holes are evenly distributed within the inner end of the slot. One end of the plug is movably inserted into the mounting groove. A connector head is fixedly installed at one end of the plug within the slot. The connector head has conductors evenly and fixedly installed at one end, the same number as the insertion holes. The multiple conductors at one end of the connector head are movably inserted into corresponding insertion holes on the inner end of the slot. A fixing plate is fixedly installed on the outer wall of the plug, and a first fixing block is fixedly installed on the top of the fixing plate. However, during operation, gaps easily form between the plug and socket in this low-voltage connector, causing the conductors to loosen from the insertion holes. This reduces the connection stability and effectiveness of the low-voltage connector, resulting in poor contact and affecting its working performance. Summary of the Invention

The female connector mechanism is assembled at one end of the male connector mechanism. A schematic diagram of the overall structure of this invention is shown below. Figure 1 As shown.

[0019] The male connector mechanism includes a male connector end 2, a male connector housing 3, and a male connector base 4. The male connector end 2 is fitted onto the outer side of the end of the wire core 1 furthest from the vehicle controller and is fixedly connected to the male connector end 2. The male connector housing 3 is located on one side of the male connector end 2 and is fixedly connected to the male connector end 2.

The male connector end 2 is an arc-shaped end structure, and the male connector housing 3 is a cylindrical housing structure. The interiors of the male connector end 2 and the male connector housing 3 are hollow structures. The male connector end 2, the male connector housing 3, the male connector base 4, and the inner assembly ring 5 together constitute a set. The male connector structure has one end of the wire core 1 protruding from the assembly structure away from the vehicle controller. The male connector mechanism, consisting of a male connector end 2, a male connector housing 3, and a male connector base 4, forms an assembly structure to meet the insertion requirements of the wire core 1. The male connector end 2 serves as the outer end structure of the wire core 1 to meet the installation requirements of the male connector housing 3. The male connector housing 3, together with the male connector end 2, forms a housing structure and provides installation support for the male connector base 4. The male connector base 4, together with the male connector end 2 and the male connector housing 3, forms an assembly structure to meet the insertion requirements of the wire core 1. A schematic diagram of the male connector mechanism and its assembly with the wire core 1 is shown below. Figure 2 As shown.

[0020] It also includes an inner assembly ring 5, which is disposed on the inner side of the male base 4 and integrally formed with the male base 4.

The elastic components work together to form an elastic support structure, thereby providing elastic support for the wire core 1 to ensure a tight fit between it and the female terminal 15. The support base 6 guides the support core tube 7 and the wire core 1 and cooperates with the support stop 8 to provide installation support for the elastic component. The support core tube 7 serves as an installation limiting structure on the wire core 1, thereby limiting the installation of the wire core 1 and the support base 6 and guiding the wire core 1. The support stop 8 serves as an installation structure on the support core tube 7 and cooperates with the support base 6 to provide installation support for the elastic component.

The female connector mechanism, through the cooperation of the female connector housing 13, the female connector core tube 14, and the female connector terminal 15, forms a female connector structure to connect with the male connector structure, thereby forming a low-voltage connector structure. The female connector housing 13 is used to provide mounting support for the female connector core tube 14. The female connector core tube 14 is used as the core tube structure inside the female connector structure, thereby providing mounting support for the female connector terminal 15. The female connector terminal 15 is used as the connection structure inside the female connector structure, thereby cooperating with the wire core 1 to realize the electrical connection of the controller.

[0025] It also includes a connecting wire 16, which is disposed at the end of the female socket housing 13 away from the male base 4 and is inserted into the female socket housing 13. The connecting wire 16 passes through the female socket housing 13 and one end is electrically connected to the female terminal 15. The end of the connecting wire 16 away from the female terminal 15 is electrically connected to the automotive electronic control system. The connecting wire 16 is used to realize the electrical connection between the female terminal 15 and the automotive electronic control system.

[0026] The end of the wire core 1 furthest from the male plug end 2 is inserted into the female plug core tube 14 and electrically connected to the female plug terminal 15. The wire core 1, the female plug terminal 15 and the connecting wire 16 can all be components of the existing technology. Their structure, connection method and working principle are all existing technologies, so they will not be described in detail here.

[0027] Working principle: In use, the male base 4 is screwed onto the female housing 13 via the inner mounting ring 5 to achieve the assembly of the low-voltage connector. In the assembled state, the elastic component provides elastic support for the support block 8, thereby providing elastic support for the support core tube 7 and the wire core 1, so that the end of the wire core 1 away from the controller is tightly fitted with the female terminal 15, ensuring its assembly tightness and realizing the electrical connection between the car controller and the car electronic control system.

[0028] The beneficial effects of this utility model are that it has a male insertion mechanism and a female insertion mechanism that cooperate with each other and adopt a threaded assembly connection to avoid loosening after long-term use. The connection between the two has good sealing performance. It also has a support mechanism that can provide elastic support for the wire core to ensure a tight connection between the wire core and the terminal, thus ensuring the connection stability and connection effect of the low-voltage connector and improving the working effect of the low-voltage connector.

[0029] The above description details one embodiment of the present utility model, but it is merely a preferred embodiment and should not be construed as limiting the scope of the present utility model. All equivalent variations and improvements made within the scope of the present utility model application should still fall within the patent coverage of the present utility model.
