Description

technical field

The present invention relates to the field of electrical technologies, particularly to a socket for an electrical connector and an electrical connector.

State of the art

In the communication industry and the like, the use of various devices is usually required for the transmission of, for example, control information, and therefore connectors for power supply are used for the devices. In a conventional connector, the tightness between a socket housing and a plug housing is achieved by filling an adhesive, in which the adhesive would flow to a contact surface between the socket housing and the plug housing, so that the usage and the tightness of the connector are impaired.

In the prior art, the arrangement of a groove around a mounting hole, which serves to insert an electrical conductor into the socket housing, causes the electrical conductor to be deformed when it is inserted into the socket. When the electric wire is inserted into the housing by means of the groove, the groove around the electric wire mounting hole is easily damaged since an interference fit is generated between the electric wire and the electric wire mounting hole when the electric wire is inserted. This makes the connection unreliable.

Furthermore, it is provided that the electrical conductor has a cylindrical part and a flat part which is firmly connected to the cylindrical part, the catch which is in contact with the elastic arm being arranged on the flat part.

Furthermore, it is provided that the elastic arm is in a middle position on one side of the mounting hole.

Provision is also made for first sealing ribs to be provided on a left end face of the housing of the socket.

Furthermore, it is provided that supports are provided symmetrically on the side walls of the housing of the socket.

An electrical connector is provided, the electrical connector comprising a socket and a plug for the connector, the socket and plug mating together;
wherein the socket comprises a housing and an electrical conductor arranged in the housing, a latch being provided on the electrical conductor, a mounting hole being provided on the housing for plugging in the electrical conductor, on at least one side of the mounting hole a contact with the latch standing elastic arm is provided, and wherein a standing in contact with the latch on the electrical conductor hook is provided on the elastic arm.

It is further provided that the plug comprises a plug housing which is plugged together with the socket housing; and that a plug core is plugged into the plug housing.

Further, it is envisaged that pillars are symmetrically provided on side walls of the housing of the socket outlet, and a latch rotator is fitted on the pillars, the other end of the latch rotator being fitted to a spigot provided on the plug housing.

Furthermore, it is provided that an assembly groove is provided on the connector housing, with a screw nut being provided in the assembly groove, with a bevel being provided on the screw nut;
and that a through hole is provided on the detent rotator, a screw is mounted in the through hole, and the position of the through hole corresponds to the position of the mounting groove.

• Durch die Verbindung zwischen dem elektrischen Leiter und dem Steckdosengehäuse über den elastischen Arm werden die Verrastungsfläche zwischen dem elektrischen Leiter und dem Steckdosengehäuse sowie die Haltekraft vergrößert, so dass die Kraft für Einstecken bzw. Entnahme von 30 N auf 90 N erhöht wird. Zudem werden die Kosten für Klebevorrichtung sowie die Zeitkosten des Prozesses eingespart. Die Montage wird auch erleichtert.

According to the technical content described above, the invention has the following advantages and beneficial effects:

• The connection between the electrical conductor and the socket housing via the elastic arm increases the latching surface between the electrical conductor and the socket housing as well as the holding force, so that the force for plugging in or removing is increased from 30 N to 90 N. In addition, the costs for the gluing device and the time costs of the process are saved. Assembly is also made easier.

A mounting groove is provided on the connector housing, with a screw nut being provided in the mounting groove, with a bevel being provided on the screw nut. A through hole is provided on the detent rotator, a screw is mounted in the through hole, and the position of the through hole corresponds to the position of the mounting groove. When the socket and plug are mated, the screw is passed through the through hole so that one end of the screw is in contact with the mounting groove. In case of unintentional operation of the latch rotator, because of the fit between the screw mounted in the through hole and the nut, the latch rotator cannot be turned by an external force applied thereto, so that the disconnection of the plugs from the socket and thus an accident can be avoided.
