Please refer to Figures 1 and 2, which are three-dimensional schematic diagrams and three-dimensional exploded diagrams of the preferred embodiment of this invention. This invention is a double-shell lock clip electrical connector structure, which is used to lock on a panel 4 of a socket electrical connector 5. The panel 4 defines a plurality of sockets 40, which mainly includes: a plug electrical connector 1, a gel shell 2 and iron shell 3, in which the colloid shell 2 defines a main body part 20, a covering part 22 and a pressing part 24. The main body part 20 is used to cover the plug electrical connector 1 of a cable 10, and the covering part 22 is located in the main body part. The rear end of 20 is for covering the cable 10, and the pressing portions 24 extend from the covering portion 22 toward the main body 20 and are located on both sides of the main body 20. Each pressing portion 24 defines a convex pressure protruding toward the main body 20. The main part 20 defines two corresponding long sides 200 and two corresponding short sides 202 connecting the long sides 200. Each pressing part 24 corresponds to the position of the short side 202, and the iron shell 3 is sleeved and fixed on the main part 20. And located between the pressing parts 24, the buckling parts 30 respectively extending on both sides of the iron shell 3 correspond to the pressing parts 24. The buckling parts 30 define hooks 300 and convex parts 302 corresponding to the convex pressing parts 240. The hook 300 is fastened to the socket 40 so that the plug electrical connector 1 is electrically connected to the socket electrical connector 5 .

In addition, the main body 20 defines at least one latching groove 204 on two corresponding surfaces respectively. The iron shell 3 is bent and formed so that a dovetail groove 34 is formed on the top surface, and at least one latching groove 204 is provided on the two corresponding surfaces. The fastener 32 corresponding to the buckle (can be an elastic piece or a convex bump), and the fastener 30 is formed in the iron shell 3 in a tearing manner. The hook 300 defines two plates 300a, and each plate 300a is located at the front end of the fastener 30 On both sides, each plate 300a is bent outward to form an angle correspondingly, so that each plate 300a and the buckle 30 form a bent state.

Referring to Figures 3 to 6 together, there is a schematic diagram of the three-dimensional structure of the colloidal shell formed on the plug electrical connector, the three-dimensional structural diagram of the iron shell combined with the colloidal shell, and the lock clip of the plug electrical connector connected to the socket electrical connector. A schematic diagram of the three-dimensional structure and a schematic diagram of the operation structure of the pressing part pressing the fastener. The plug electrical connector 1 and the socket electrical connector 5 in this embodiment are both Type-C electrical connectors. As can be seen from FIG. 3 , the electrical plug connector 1 mainly welds the cable 10 first, and then uses an insert molding method to form a gel seat 12 at the welded part of the electrical plug connector 1 and the cable 10 to complete the plug. After the electrical connector 1 and the cable 10 are manufactured, a second insert molding is performed so that the main body portion 20 and the covering portion 22 in the colloidal shell 2 cover the rear end of the plug electrical connector 1 and The entire colloid seat 12 and the front end of the cable 10 are thereby integrally fixed. At the same time, two corresponding surfaces of the main body 20 respectively define slots 204, and the pressing part 24 extends from the covering part 22 toward the main body 20. Located on both sides of the main body part 20, each pressing part 24 respectively defines a convex pressing part 240 protruding toward the main body part 20. What is particularly important is that each pressing part 24 corresponds to the position of the short side 202 of the main body part 20, whereby, Operators can be more consistent with the inertia of general operations when using it.

After the insert molding of the colloid shell 2 is completed, the iron shell 3 is sleeved from the plug electrical connector 1 position toward the cable 10 . At this time, the iron shell 3 is fixed on the main body 20 and located between each pressing part 24 . During this time, the fasteners 32 (take elastic pieces as an example) provided on the two corresponding surfaces of the iron shell 3 are used to buckle in the slot 204 to achieve the buckling and positioning effect. Then, the buckle parts 30 on both sides of the iron shell 3 correspond to the pressing part 24, and the convex part 302 on the buckle part 30 is adjacent to the position of the hook 300, and the convex part 302 corresponds to the convex part 240 on the pressing part 24, whereby , when the pressing part 24 on the colloid shell 2 is pressed, through the convex pressing part 240 on the pressing part 24 The convex portion 302 directly abuts the buckle 30, making it easier and more accurate to control the hook 300. The hook 300 can be detached from the socket 40 without pressing too hard (as shown in Figure 6). The convex part 302 provided on the fastener 30 is adjacent to the position of the hook 300. When the fastener 30 is pressed by the pressing part 24, the convex part 302 is located at a position with less elastic strength of the fastener 30, so it can reach the desired position with the minimum force. In addition to the deepest pressing range, the pressing anti-slip surface 242 formed on the outer surface of the pressing part 24 allows the operator to have a better operating feel when pressing and avoids bad operations such as hand slippage during pressing, which makes it difficult to press. On the contrary, the pressing part 24 can also be used to press the buckle 30, so that the hook 300 is retracted so that it can be easily inserted into the socket 40 and fastened. As shown in Figure 5, the hook 300 is buckled against the panel after the buckle is completed. 4 achieves a fastening effect, so that the plug electrical connector 1 can be stably electrically connected to the socket electrical connector 5 without loosening.

In addition, the outer surface of the main part 20 is lower than the outer surface of the covering part 22 to form a height difference, and this height difference is equal to the thickness of the iron shell 3. Therefore, after the iron shell 3 is installed, the overall double-shell lock clip electrical connector structure can be formed. More flat.
