In an alternative embodiment, the first connector 51 is provided with a first fastener for cooperating with a corresponding second fastener on the second connector 52 to secure the second connector 52 to the first connector 51.
In an alternative embodiment, one of the first fixing member and the second fixing member may be a magnet, and the other of the first fixing member and the second fixing member may be a magnet or a magnetic metal member.
For example, the first fixing member and the second fixing member may be permanent magnets or electromagnets, the permanent magnets may be an alnico permanent magnet alloy or an iron-chromium-cobalt permanent magnet alloy, and the electromagnets may be selectively turned on or off as required to control the operating state of the locking device. The specific type and material of the magnetic attraction member are not limited in this application.
When the first connector 51 is connected to the second connector 52, the opposite poles of the first and second fixing members are opposed, so that the second connector 52 can be firmly fixed to the first connector 51 by the attraction force of the opposite poles. In the present embodiment, the first fixing member is at least one magnet disposed on the first connector 51, the first connector 51 is provided with at least one magnet mounting groove, each magnet is correspondingly mounted on the magnet mounting groove, the second fixing member is a magnetic iron sheet disposed on the second connector 52, and the magnetic iron sheet is mounted on one side of the second connector 52 facing the first connector 51, so that the magnetic iron sheet can be adsorbed on the at least one magnet.
In addition, the first fixing element and the second fixing element can be magnetic elements at the same time, wherein the magnetic pole of the first fixing element is opposite to the opposite magnetic pole of the second fixing element, and the opposite magnetic pole here means that the opposite magnetic poles of the first fixing element and the second fixing element form an opposite magnetic pole, so that the second connector 52 can be plugged onto the first connector 51 and locked and fixed under the attraction of the opposite magnetic pole.
It should be noted that the first fixing member may also be a bar magnet, a circular magnet, or a magnet with other shapes, and the second fixing member may be another metal member that can be attracted by the magnet; or the first fixing part is another metal piece capable of being attracted by the magnet, and the second fixing part is the magnet, which is not limited in the present application.
In an alternative embodiment, when the first fixing element and the second fixing element can be magnetic elements at the same time, they are a first magnetic element and a second magnetic element respectively, the first magnetic element is disposed on the first connector 51, the number of the first magnetic elements is at least two, and all the first magnetic elements are opposite in polarity at one end facing the second connector 52 and are located at two sides of the first signal connector 513.

The symmetrically distributed magnetic members may enable the engagement points of the second connector 52 and the first connector 51 to be symmetrically distributed around the first signal connector 513 and the second signal connector, so that the engagement of the second connector 52 and the first connector 51 is more stable.
In addition, because the magnetism of each magnetic member on the first connector 51 or the second connector 52 is different, the first connector 51 and the second connector 52 can be accurately attracted to correct positions, the accuracy of the butt joint position is ensured, the convenience of butt joint is improved, blind operation of a user can be realized, namely, the user does not need to look at the butt joint position to insert and pull out, and a fool-proof effect can be achieved.
Illustratively, when the second connector 52 is mated with the first connector 51 in a manner of rotating at an angle deviating from the normal mating position, if the angle deviating from the normal mating position is not large, the magnetic attraction of the magnetic members will automatically adjust to the proper mating position. If the rotation deviation angle is too large, for example, 180 °, the magnetic member on the second connector 52 and the magnetic member on the first connector 51 are not matched in polarity, and the attraction cannot be achieved, so that the user can be prevented from butting the second connector 52 with the first connector 51 in a wrong manner, and the potential safety hazard is avoided.
In an alternative embodiment, the first fixing member includes a snap-fit portion disposed inside the first housing, and the second fixing member includes a snap-fit portion disposed outside the second connector, and the position of the snap-fit portion corresponds to the position of the snap-fit portion, so that the second connector can be detachably mounted on the first connector 51 by being snapped into the snap-fit portion by the snap-fit portion.
