Example, and be used for explaining the principle of the application together with description.
Specific embodiment
Below by specific embodiment and combine accompanying drawing the application is described in further detail.
As shown in Figure 1 to Figure 3, one embodiment of the application provides a kind of shielded connector, and which includes:Base assembly
10 and cover assembly 20,20 cover buckle of cover assembly is on base assembly 10, and forms accommodating chamber, the accommodating chamber with base assembly 10
The end of wire 30 can be accommodated, that is to say, that the shielded connector is may be installed on wire 30, it is to avoid the magnetic field that wire 30 is produced
Interfere with each other with outside miscellaneous equipment.
Above-mentioned base assembly 10 includes first base insulating barrier 100 and base conductive layer 101, and the base conductive layer 101 is used
In ground connection, it is generally the case that the equipment that base conductive layer 101 is grounded with other is contacted, so as to be grounded, for example, should
When shielded connector is applied in battery bag, the base conductive layer 101 of the shielded connector can be connected with the battery bag casing of ground connection
Connect, so as to be grounded.What deserves to be explained is, base conductive layer 101 is all enclosed with first base near the side of accommodating chamber
Insulating barrier 100, can avoid when wire 30 being fixed in shielded connector using bolt, and bolt is anticipated with base conductive layer 101
Outer contacting, the situation for causing base conductive layer 101 powered.And have between the base conductive layer 101 and the screen layer 300 of wire 30
There is interval, that is to say, that when wire 30 is arranged in accommodating chamber, the screen layer 300 of wire 30 is not straight with base conductive layer 101
Contact.
Aforementioned cover assembly 20 includes lid insulating barrier 200 and upper lid conductive layer 201 on first, and upper lid conductive layer 201 includes
The the first contact site 201a, the connecting portion 201b that are sequentially connected and the second contact site 201c, in 20 cover buckle of cover assembly at above-mentioned bottom
When on holder assembly 10, the first contact site 201a is contacted with the screen layer 300 of wire 30, the second contact site 201c and base conductive layer
101 contacts, to realize the screen layer 300 of wire 30 and the connection of base conductive layer 101, form a loop, so as to realize screen
The function of shielding of adapter is covered, in other words, if upper lid is opened, the screen layer 300 of base conductive layer 101 and wire 30 is not
Contact, does not just constitute a loop yet, therefore, it is impossible to realize the function of shielding of shielded connector, function of shielding is only by upper lid
20 cover buckle of component could realize that on base assembly 10 hot line job in this avoid 30 installation process of wire causes shielding to connect
The powered situation of device is connect, the safety in utilization of shielded connector is improve.What deserves to be explained is, the connection of upper lid conductive layer 201
Portion 201b is all enclosed with lid insulating barrier 200 on first near the side of accommodating chamber, can so avoid using bolt by wire
30 when being fixed in shielded connector, and bolt is unexpected with upper lid conductive layer 201 to be contacted, the feelings for causing base conductive layer 101 powered
Condition.

During error, the low situation of grounding parts 101a Earthing Reliabilities, and as flexure strip 101aa is when contacting with ground, with direction
The resilient-elasticity recovery trend on ground, even if when the external equipment being connected with the shielded connector occurs vibration, the shielding connects
The base conductive layer 101 of device can also recover the state that deformation remains ground connection by the flexure strip 101aa of grounding parts 101a, carry
The Earthing Reliability of high shielded connector, so as to improve the shielding reliability of shielded connector.
The first base insulation division that is previously mentioned, second base insulation division, lid insulation on lid insulation division and second on first
Portion can adopt plastics or quality of rubber materials make, and so not only ensure first base insulation division, second base insulation division, cover on first
On insulation division and second, lid insulation division has a good insulating properties, and due to plastics and elastomeric material it is relatively cheap and compare
Gently, such that it is able to reducing the cost of shielded connector and reducing the weight of shielded connector, convenient use.
What deserves to be explained is, the upper lid conductive layer of above-mentioned cover assembly can be made up of metal material, and remainder can be adopted
Made with plastics or elastomeric material, the base conductive layer of above-mentioned base assembly can be made up of metal material, and remainder can be adopted
Made with plastics or elastomeric material.
