Description
SIGNAL PLUG
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
1. Field of the invention
This invention is a kind of signal plug, specifically one that makes signal plug assembly more convenient and provides improved signal conductivity.
2. Description of the Prior Art
As shown in Fig. 1 conventional signal plugs 10 have a banana plug 100 and an insulation shell 101; the banana plug can be inserted into the connecting hole of the signal plug socket joining the two and allowing flow.
As shown in Fig. 2, the signal plug 11 includes an outer casing ill, cable holder 112, contact pin 113 and anchor part 114. Signal plug 11 can also be plugged into the connecting hole in the banana socket connecting them and allowing flow,.
As shown in Fig. 3, in order to increase conventional signal contact body parts safety and meet the BFA ( British Federation of audio) standards, a new conventional signal contact body parts, namely an improved banana plug connector inverted inside the plug were developed. As shown in Fig. 3, the conventional signal female plug 12 includes a cable holder 120, an outer casing 121, joining pipe 122, contact pin 123 and anchor part 124. Joining pipe 122, contact pin 123 of the conventional signal female plug 12 can be inserted into its outer protective tube with the contact pin 123 fitted on the BFA ( British Federation of audio) socket that signals pass between them.
The connector between cable holder 120 of the signal female plug 12 and contact pin 123 is a secondary contact which will increase its resistance. Also, the cost of the copper material that cable holder 120 is made of is also high. The fitting of the signal wire is very inconvenient because the outer casing 121 has to be removed for the signal wire to be connected to the cable holder 120, making use inconvenient.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
The main objective of this invention is to provide a signal plug that is easy to assemble and has excellent signal conductivity.
The main characteristic of this invention is the body has a flexible contact pin on the front and on the end, there is a positioning device and conducting wire anchor parts. The sleeve has a hole passing through it and has a positioning part and joining screw guide hole.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED
EMBODIMENT
As is shown in Figs. 4 -6, the first embodiment of this invention comprises mainly of a main body 2 and a sleeve 3.
On the front of the main body 2 there is a C-shaped section contact pin 20 on which there is an elastic edge 200 with a gap. At the end of main body 2 there is a concave part 21 on which there is a positioning device 210, conducting wire anchor parts 211 and stopper tag 212. Positioning device 210 comprises of a clip-in shell fragment or reverse tapered teeth.
Sleeve 3 has a hole 30 through it. The hole 30 has a step shaped large and small circular groves 300, 301 and there is a positioning part 31, joining screw guide hole 32 and plate 33 on the front of the sleeve 3. Joining screw guide hole 32 has screw joint parts 320 321. On the top of sleeve 3 there is a polar color ring 34.
When assembling, the main body 2 is inserted through the large circular grove 300 on the end of sleeve 3 and contact pin on main body 2 passes through hole 30. When main body 2 reaches the plate 33 of the sleeve and slots into stopper tag 212, positioning device 210 inserted into the positioning part 31 of sleeve 3. This fixed main body 2 inside sleeve 3 and completes assemble.
When installing signal conducting wire (A), all that needed is to pass it through the large circular grove 300 on the end of sleeve 3 and then screw the conducting wire (A) is place using joining screw guide hole 32 and screw joint parts 320 and 321 to fix on conducting wire anchor parts 211 (as shown in Fig. 7), easily completing wire installation and then the present invention can be plugged into a conventional signal socket (as shown in Figs. 8 to 9).
As shown in Figs. 10 12, the second embodiment of this invention comprises mainly of a main body 2, a sleeve 3 and a Safety casing 4. On the front of the main body 2 there is a C-shaped section contact pin 20 on which there is an elastic edge 200 with a gap. At the end of main body 2 there is a concave part 21 on which there is a positioning device 210, conducting wire anchor parts 211 and stopper tag 212.
Positioning device 210 comprises of a clip-in shell fragment or reverse tapered teeth. Sleeve 3 has a hole.30 through it.
