Description

Outdoor waterproof connector

This creation relates to an outdoor waterproof connector, especially a fixed base fixed to a preset electrical connector with an unlocking hole. The positioning spring of the plug connector is pressed down, and the socket connector and the plug connector are in an unlocked state, and then the locking piece and the fixed seat are unlocked, so that the plug connector can be reversely disengaged from the fixed seat. In order to achieve the purpose of not allowing users to disassemble the electrical connector by themselves, so as to avoid damage to the electrical connector and its connected cables.

According to this, the transmission speed of network technology is constantly improving, and network cloud technology has been developed to transmit more electronic information through network cloud technology. With the increasing demand for communication bandwidth and speed, it is used for network Electronic equipment for road signal transmission (such as computer servers, telecommunication boxes in outdoor environments, etc.) must also move towards the direction of strong computing function, high speed and small size, which has become the main development trend of electronic equipment, and the processing of electronic equipment is huge. When computing data, it is very urgent to need high-density and a large number of connectors (such as optical fiber, RJ45, etc.) to transmit data. There is a socket connector in the fixing base, and the plug of the installed cable is passed through the chassis fixing base to form an electrical connection with the corresponding socket connector. Numerous number of connectors required for equipment chassis mounts , which leads to the problem that the density between adjacent connectors increases and the gap becomes smaller, which makes it difficult to disassemble and assemble. Therefore, the relevant industry must not only think about how to place more connectors in a limited space, but also consider How to easily disassemble and assemble the plug of the installed cable and the socket connector in the chassis holder of the electronic equipment, and further ensure the stability of the electrical connection of the connector. Therefore, the industry must consider the plug and socket connector when designing. When the operation space is not enough, it is necessary to take into account the stability of the plug and socket connector.

Furthermore, after the plug connector is docked with the receptacle connector, in addition to the consideration of stability, some electrical connectors must not be disassembled by the user, so as to avoid damage to the electrical connector and its connected cables. Therefore, it is necessary to design a locking structure that can be disassembled by means of a special hand tool to achieve the aforementioned purpose, but generally known electrical connectors rarely have the aforementioned special locking structure. Therefore, how to solve the shortcomings and deficiencies of habitual usage is the direction that those engaged in this industry are eager to improve.

Therefore, in view of the above problems and deficiencies, the creator collected relevant information, and after multiple evaluations and considerations, the creation of this outdoor waterproof connector was born.
