AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Conventional connector locking devices fail to allow easy detachment of the actuator from the inlet, particularly in emergency situations where the actuator may be left behind due to malfunction, leading to potential damage or difficulty in removal.

Method used

The connector locking device incorporates a lock pin that can be released from the locked portion by moving in a direction intersecting the fitting direction through a notch, allowing easy detachment of the actuator from the inlet, and a cover member that disengages from the housing to prevent damage during forced removal.

Benefits of technology

Enables easy and safe detachment of the actuator from the inlet, preventing damage to the lock pin and housing components during emergency situations.

Abstract

To provide a connector lock device and an inlet capable of easily separating an actuator from the inlet when necessary.SOLUTION: A lock pin 6 is driven to advance and retreat by a solenoid 5, and is locked to an inlet 2 by retreating a tip into a plug housing 4 at a retreat position and projecting the tip to the outside of the plug housing 4 at an advance position. The locked part 12 of the inlet 2 has a cutout 12c for releasing locking between the lock pin 6 and the locked part 12 by allowing the lock pin 6 to move in the left direction when the plug housing 4 is detached from the inlet 2 while leaving the solenoid 5.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 9
