Please refer to Figures 1 to 3, which are a three-dimensional schematic diagram, a three-dimensional exploded diagram and a three-dimensional structural diagram of the iron shell combined with the colloid shell of the preferred embodiment of the present invention. This invention is an iron-shell double-side lock clip connector structure, which is locked to 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 colloidal shell 2 is embedded and molded to cover the plug electrical connector 1 with the cable 10. The colloidal shell 2 defines a mounting part 20, and the mounting part 20 is defined on the upper and lower corresponding surfaces respectively. There is at least one slot 200, and the iron shell 3 is installed on the mounting part 20. The iron shell 3 defines an upper top surface 30, a lower bottom surface 32 and two side walls 34 connected to the upper top surface 30 and the lower bottom surface 32. The upper top surface 30 Positioning members 36 are respectively provided on the lower bottom surface 32 and the positioning members 36 corresponding to the slots 200 . A pressing elastic member 340 extends from each side wall 34 toward the plug electrical connector 1 . The pressing elastic member 340 defines a hook portion 342 at one end. , a pressing protrusion 344 is formed adjacent to the hook portion 342, each pressing elastic member 340 is inserted through the socket 40, and the hook portion 342 is buckled on the panel 4, so that the plug electrical connector 1 is electrically connected to the socket electrical connector 5.

The hook portion 342 mentioned above is shorter than the front end of the electrical plug connector 1 , and the hook portion 342 is bent outward by the pressing elastic member 340 to pass through the socket 40 and snap onto the panel 4 . In addition, the gel shell 2 is located at the mounting portion 20 and forms an inclined surface 22 corresponding to the pressing elastic member 340. A pressing space 341 is defined between the inclined surface 22 and the pressing elastic member 340. The inclined surface 22 is inclined from the mounting portion 20 toward the electrical plug connector 1.

Referring to Figure 4 and Figure 6 together, there is a schematic diagram of the three-dimensional structure of the lock clip of the plug electrical connector connected to the socket electrical connector of the present invention, the operation schematic diagram of pressing the elastic member on the iron shell and the non-pressing operation. Schematic diagram of the structure of the pressing elastic member. 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 the figures, the electrical plug connector 1 mainly welds the cable 10 first, and then uses insert molding 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 produced, the second insert molding is performed so that the colloidal shell 2 covers the rear end of the plug electrical connector 1, the entire colloidal seat 12 and the front end of the cable 10. In this way, the overall fixation is achieved, and then the iron shell 3 is installed on the mounting part 20 , and the positioning member 36 is positioned corresponding to the slot 200 . It can be seen from the above structure that after the assembly of the plug electrical connector 1, the colloidal shell 2 and the iron shell 3 is completed, the user can directly insert and press the elastic member 340 when plugging the plug electrical connector 1 into the socket electrical connector 5. The only difference between the two is the snapping feel and sound produced during insertion. When the pressing elastic member 340 is directly inserted into the socket 40 and forced to snap into the socket 40, The user does not need to exert pressure on the pressing elastic member 340. The hook portion 342 at the front end of the pressing elastic member 340 will press against the periphery of the socket 40 of the panel 4. Through the forward pushing force, the pressing elastic member 340 will be stretched outwards and then inserted. The socket 40 then elastically restores its position by pressing the material of the elastic member 340 itself, thereby achieving a snapping effect. Another method is to press the pressing elastic member 340 first and then snap it into the socket 40. Then there will be no snapping feel and sound when plugging in. The user must first press the pressing convex portion 344 on the pressing elastic member 340. At this time The distance between the hook portions 342 will be reduced to less than the socket 40. Therefore, when the plug electrical connector 1 is inserted into the socket electrical connector 5, the hook portions 342 can be directly inserted into the socket 40 and against the panel without conflict. 4. To achieve the buckle effect.

Both of the above are plug-in methods. When the plug electrical connector 1 is detached from the socket electrical connector 5, refer to Figure 5. From the figure, it can be seen that before detaching the plug electrical connector 1, the user must first remove the iron shell 3. The pressing elastic member 340 at the side wall surface 34 presses the convex portion 344 to push the inside of each hook portion 342. Press, at this time, the distance between the hook portions 342 will be reduced to less than the socket 40 , so the plug electrical connector 1 can be separated from the socket electrical connector 5 .

When the above-mentioned pressing elastic member 340 is pressed, since the colloid shell 2 is located at the mounting part 20 and the corresponding pressing elastic member 340 will form a slope 22, and a pressing space 341 is defined between the slope 22 and the pressing elastic member 340, so the pressing elastic member When 340 is pressed, enough space can be revealed through the pressing space 341 to shrink, so that the distance between the hook portions 342 is shortened, so that the plug electrical connector 1 can be separated from the socket electrical connector 5, or the plugging can be facilitated. In this way, when the hook portion 34 passes through the socket 40 and blocks the panel 4, the plug electrical connector 1 can be completely electrically connected to the socket electrical connector 5, and there will not be excessive looseness or excessive tightness causing failure of conduction. Complete situation occurs.

The above embodiments are only illustrative to illustrate the principles and effects of this invention, but are not intended to limit this invention. Anyone familiar with this art can make modifications to the above embodiments without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention.
