Abstract
Description
本創作是有關於一種插座連接器及連接器組合，且特別是有關於一種可提供一定的插拔強度的插座連接器及連接器組合。The present invention relates to a socket connector and a connector combination, and more particularly to a socket connector and connector combination that can provide a certain plug strength.
目前，電纜線與電子裝置之間通常透過連接器組合連接，以進行訊號傳遞。一般而言，連接器組合包括一插座連接器(母端)及可與插座連接器對接的一插頭連接器(公端)。使用時，為了使插頭連接器與插座連接器保持在對接的狀態，兩者分別會設有對應的結構，以使插頭連接器不會輕易地脫離插座連接器。At present, the cable and the electronic device are usually connected through a connector for signal transmission. In general, the connector assembly includes a receptacle connector (female end) and a plug connector (male) that can interface with the receptacle connector. In use, in order to maintain the plug connector and the socket connector in a mated state, the two structures are respectively provided with corresponding structures so that the plug connector does not easily detach from the socket connector.
舉例而言，目前市面上的其中一種插座連接器，其在內部空間中配置一C形金屬件，插頭連接器的外徑略大於C形金屬件的內徑。因此，在插頭連接器***插座連接器的過程中，插頭連接器會擠壓到C型金屬件。由於C形金屬件具有一缺口，其被擠壓後可略為變形而使其內徑擴大，插頭連接器的前端便得以穿過。C形金屬件便會夾住插頭連接器，而使插頭連接器保持在插座連接器內。然而，C形金屬件雖具有一定的夾固強度以及可撓能力，其成本卻相當昂貴。For example, one of the socket connectors currently on the market is provided with a C-shaped metal member in the inner space, and the outer diameter of the plug connector is slightly larger than the inner diameter of the C-shaped metal member. Therefore, during the insertion of the plug connector into the socket connector, the plug connector is pressed to the C-shaped metal member. Since the C-shaped metal member has a notch which is slightly deformed after being pressed to expand its inner diameter, the front end of the plug connector can be passed. The C-shaped metal member clamps the plug connector and holds the plug connector in the receptacle connector. However, C-shaped metal parts have a certain clamping strength and flexibility, and the cost is quite expensive.

本創作更提供一種連接器組合，包括一插座連接器及適於與插座連接器對接的一插頭連接器。插座連接器包括一第一殼體、一第一端子組、一彈性密封環及至少一彈性固定環。第一殼體包括一開口、一內表面、一內部空間及一凹溝。內表面環繞出內部空間，內部空間連通於開口與凹溝，凹溝凹陷於內表面且自開口沿著平行於插頭連接器的***方向向內延伸。第一端子組位於內部空間。彈性密封環位於內部空間中遠離開口的位置且貼合於內表面。The present invention further provides a connector assembly comprising a socket connector and a plug connector adapted to interface with the socket connector. The socket connector includes a first housing, a first terminal set, an elastic sealing ring and at least one elastic fixing ring. The first housing includes an opening, an inner surface, an inner space, and a recess. The inner surface surrounds the inner space, the inner space communicates with the opening and the groove, the groove is recessed on the inner surface and extends inwardly from the opening in a direction parallel to the insertion direction of the plug connector. The first terminal set is located in the internal space. The elastic sealing ring is located in the inner space away from the opening and conforms to the inner surface.
各彈性固定環位於容置空間中靠近開口的位置且貼合於內表面，凹溝的延伸長度大於開口至彈性固定環之間的距離。插頭連接器包括一第二殼體及一第二端子組。第二殼體包括適於伸入內部空間的一對接部，其中對接部包括一外表面及凸出於外表面的一凸塊。第二端子組位於第二殼體內。當插頭連接器***插座連接器時，凸塊位於凹溝內，第一端 子組對接於第二端子組，且外表面接觸彈性密封環與各彈性固定環。Each elastic fixing ring is located in the accommodating space near the opening and is attached to the inner surface, and the extending length of the groove is larger than the distance between the opening and the elastic fixing ring. The plug connector includes a second housing and a second terminal set. The second housing includes a pair of joints adapted to extend into the interior space, wherein the abutment portion includes an outer surface and a projection projecting from the outer surface. The second terminal set is located within the second housing. When the plug connector is inserted into the socket connector, the bump is located in the groove, the first end The sub-group is butted to the second terminal group, and the outer surface contacts the elastic sealing ring and each elastic fixing ring.
基於上述，本創作的連接器組合之插頭連接器的對接部在***插座連接器的內部空間的過程中，由於對接部的外徑大於彈性固定環的內徑，對接部的外表面會與彈性固定環接觸，而提供摩擦力。因此，使用者需要施以一定的力量才能***。並且，在***過程中，對接部在接觸到彈性密封環之前，位於內部空間的空氣可自凹溝排出，可有效地避免內部空間逐漸縮小時，氣體壓力過大而造成難以***的狀況。藉由上述設計，插頭連接器***插座連接器時所需施以的力量可被控制在一特定範圍之內。同樣地，當插頭連接器完全接合於插座連接器時，彈性固定環所提供的摩擦力可使插頭連接器不會輕易地脫離插座連接器，使用者需施以一定大小的力量才能夠將插頭連接器拔出。Based on the above, in the process of inserting the abutting portion of the plug connector of the connector assembly of the present invention into the inner space of the socket connector, since the outer diameter of the abutting portion is larger than the inner diameter of the elastic fixing ring, the outer surface of the abutting portion is elastic The retaining ring contacts and provides friction. Therefore, the user needs to exert a certain amount of force to insert. Moreover, during the insertion process, the air in the internal space can be discharged from the groove before the abutting portion contacts the elastic sealing ring, which can effectively prevent the gas pressure from being too large and causing difficulty in insertion when the internal space is gradually reduced. With the above design, the force required to insert the plug connector into the receptacle connector can be controlled within a specific range. Similarly, when the plug connector is fully engaged with the receptacle connector, the friction provided by the resilient retaining ring allows the plug connector to not easily disengage from the receptacle connector, and the user must apply a certain amount of force to enable the plug The connector is pulled out.
換句話說，本創作的插座連接器及連接器組合，可提供一定的插拔強度，除了插頭連接器不會輕易地脫離插座連接器之外，也可提供給使用者插拔時的手感。另外，由於可採用公規的O形環作為彈性固定環，插座連接器具有較低的成本。此外，由於第一環狀溝槽並未連通於凹溝，當對接部接觸彈性密封環時，位於第一環狀溝槽內的彈性密封環可緊貼於對接部的外表面與插座連接器的內表面，而達到防水的效果。In other words, the combination of the socket connector and the connector of the present invention can provide a certain plug strength, and the plug connector can be easily removed from the socket connector, and can also provide the user with the feeling when plugging and unplugging. In addition, the socket connector has a lower cost since a public-standard O-ring can be used as the elastic fixing ring. In addition, since the first annular groove is not connected to the groove, when the abutting portion contacts the elastic sealing ring, the elastic sealing ring located in the first annular groove can be in close contact with the outer surface of the abutting portion and the socket connector The inner surface achieves a waterproof effect.

圖1A是依照本創作的一實施例的一種插頭連接器與插座連接器尚未連接時的立體示意圖。圖1B是圖1A的側視示意圖。圖1C是圖1B的剖面示意圖。請參閱圖1A至圖1C，本實施例之連接器組合10包括一插座連接器100及適於與插座連接器100對接的一插頭連接器200。1A is a perspective view of a plug connector and a receptacle connector not yet connected, in accordance with an embodiment of the present invention. Figure 1B is a side elevational view of Figure 1A. 1C is a schematic cross-sectional view of FIG. 1B. Referring to FIGS. 1A-1C, the connector assembly 10 of the present embodiment includes a receptacle connector 100 and a plug connector 200 adapted to interface with the receptacle connector 100.
本實施例之插座連接器100及插頭連接器200可廣泛地被運用在多種電纜線與電子裝置之間，以進行訊號傳遞。如圖1C所示，在本實施例中，插座連接器100包括一第一殼體110、一第一端子組120、一彈性密封環130及至少一彈性固定環140。The socket connector 100 and the plug connector 200 of the present embodiment can be widely used between a plurality of cable lines and an electronic device for signal transmission. As shown in FIG. 1C , in the present embodiment, the socket connector 100 includes a first housing 110 , a first terminal set 120 , an elastic sealing ring 130 , and at least one elastic fixing ring 140 .
圖2A是圖1A的插座連接器的第一殼體從開口往內看的示意圖。圖2B是圖2A的剖面示意圖。在圖2A與圖2B中，為了清楚表示第一殼體內部的關係，特意隱藏彈性密封環130與彈性固定環140。請參閱圖1C至圖2B，第一殼體110包括一開口111、一內表面112、一內部空間113、一凹溝114、一第一環狀溝槽115及至少一第二環狀溝槽116。內表面112環繞出內部空間113，且內部空間113連通於開口111、凹溝114、第一環狀溝槽115及第二環狀溝槽116。2A is a schematic illustration of the first housing of the receptacle connector of FIG. 1A viewed inwardly from the opening. 2B is a schematic cross-sectional view of FIG. 2A. In FIGS. 2A and 2B, in order to clearly show the relationship inside the first casing, the elastic sealing ring 130 and the elastic fixing ring 140 are intentionally hidden. Referring to FIG. 1C to FIG. 2B , the first housing 110 includes an opening 111 , an inner surface 112 , an inner space 113 , a recess 114 , a first annular groove 115 , and at least one second annular groove . 116. The inner surface 112 surrounds the inner space 113, and the inner space 113 communicates with the opening 111, the groove 114, the first annular groove 115, and the second annular groove 116.
在本實施例中，凹溝114、第一環狀溝槽115及第二環狀溝槽116分別凹陷於內表面112。凹溝114自開口111沿著平行於插頭連接器200的***方向向內延伸。第一環狀溝槽115與第二環狀溝槽116的中心軸線C分別平行於插頭連接器200的***方向。In the present embodiment, the groove 114, the first annular groove 115 and the second annular groove 116 are respectively recessed on the inner surface 112. The groove 114 extends inwardly from the opening 111 in a direction parallel to the insertion direction of the plug connector 200. The central axis C of the first annular groove 115 and the second annular groove 116 are parallel to the insertion direction of the plug connector 200, respectively.
第二環狀溝槽116連通於內部空間113與凹溝114，但第一環狀溝槽115並未連通於凹溝114。第一環狀溝槽115與第二環狀溝槽116分別位在內部空間113中遠離開口111以及靠近開口111的位置。也就是說，第二環狀溝槽116較第一環狀溝槽115更為靠近開口111。The second annular groove 116 communicates with the inner space 113 and the groove 114, but the first annular groove 115 does not communicate with the groove 114. The first annular groove 115 and the second annular groove 116 are respectively located in the inner space 113 away from the opening 111 and near the opening 111. That is, the second annular groove 116 is closer to the opening 111 than the first annular groove 115.
請回到圖1C，第一端子組120位於內部空間113，彈性密封環130及彈性固定環140分別環繞第一端子組120。彈性密封環130與彈性固定環140分別位於第一環狀溝槽115與第二環狀溝槽116，且彈性密封環130與彈性固定環140分別貼合於內表面112。在本實施例中，彈性固定環140的數量以兩個為例，但彈性固定環140的數量並不以此為限制，後面將會仔細地描述製造者可如何決定彈性固定環140的數量。此外，在本實施例中，凹溝114延伸至較遠離開口111的第二環狀溝槽116與第一環狀溝槽115之間。Referring back to FIG. 1C , the first terminal set 120 is located in the internal space 113 , and the elastic sealing ring 130 and the elastic fixing ring 140 respectively surround the first terminal set 120 . The elastic sealing ring 130 and the elastic fixing ring 140 are respectively located on the first annular groove 115 and the second annular groove 116, and the elastic sealing ring 130 and the elastic fixing ring 140 are respectively attached to the inner surface 112. In the present embodiment, the number of the elastic fixing rings 140 is exemplified by two, but the number of the elastic fixing rings 140 is not limited thereto, and how the manufacturer can determine the number of the elastic fixing rings 140 will be described later. Further, in the present embodiment, the groove 114 extends between the second annular groove 116 and the first annular groove 115 which are farther from the opening 111.
插頭連接器200包括一第二殼體210及一第二端子組220。第二殼體210包括適於伸入內部空間113的一對接部212，其中對接部212包括一外表面214及凸出於外表面214的一凸塊216。第二端子組220位於第二殼體210內。在本實施例中，凸塊216可沿著凹溝114進入插座連接器100，換句話說，可藉由凸塊216搭配凹溝114的設計達到防呆的功效。The plug connector 200 includes a second housing 210 and a second terminal set 220. The second housing 210 includes a pair of joints 212 adapted to extend into the interior space 113, wherein the abutment portion 212 includes an outer surface 214 and a projection 216 projecting from the outer surface 214. The second terminal set 220 is located within the second housing 210. In the present embodiment, the bump 216 can enter the socket connector 100 along the groove 114. In other words, the bump 216 can be matched with the design of the groove 114 to achieve a foolproof effect.
圖3A是圖1A的插頭連接器與插座連接器連接過程的立體示意圖。圖3B是圖3A的側視示意圖。圖3C是圖3B的剖面示意圖。請參閱圖3A至圖3C，在本實施例中，由於對接部212靠近一端部218的部位的外徑小於內部空間113的內徑，且對接部212靠近端部218的部位的外徑大於彈性固定環140的內徑及彈性密封環130的內徑。因此，一開始在插頭連接器200***插座連接器100的過程中，彈性固定環140會先與對接部212的外表面214接觸，而提供一定的摩擦力，因此，使用者需要施以一定的力量才能將插頭連接器200***，而提供使用者***時的手感。3A is a perspective view showing the process of connecting the plug connector of FIG. 1A with the socket connector. Figure 3B is a side elevational view of Figure 3A. 3C is a schematic cross-sectional view of FIG. 3B. Referring to FIG. 3A to FIG. 3C , in the embodiment, the outer diameter of the portion of the abutting portion 212 near the one end portion 218 is smaller than the inner diameter of the inner space 113 , and the outer diameter of the portion of the abutting portion 212 near the end portion 218 is greater than the elastic portion. The inner diameter of the retaining ring 140 and the inner diameter of the elastomeric sealing ring 130. Therefore, in the process of inserting the plug connector 200 into the socket connector 100, the elastic fixing ring 140 first contacts the outer surface 214 of the abutting portion 212 to provide a certain frictional force. Therefore, the user needs to apply a certain amount. Power can insert the plug connector 200 to provide a feel when the user inserts.
製造者可透過選擇使用不同材質的彈性固定環140(也就是改變摩擦係數)、視需求增減彈性固定環140的數量或是選擇不同寬度的彈性固定環140(也就是改變其與對接部212的外表面214之間的接觸面積)，來讓使用者需要施以一定大小的***力。The manufacturer can select the elastic fixing ring 140 of different materials (that is, change the friction coefficient), increase or decrease the number of the elastic fixing rings 140 as needed, or select the elastic fixing ring 140 of different widths (that is, change the same with the butting portion 212). The contact area between the outer surfaces 214) allows the user to apply a certain amount of insertion force.
此外，在***過程中，隨著對接部212的端部218逐漸靠近位在內部空間113中最遠離開口111的一壁面117，內部空間113逐漸縮小，會導致壓力變大，而造成難以***的狀況。In addition, during the insertion process, as the end portion 218 of the abutting portion 212 gradually approaches a wall surface 117 located farthest from the opening 111 in the internal space 113, the internal space 113 is gradually reduced, which causes the pressure to become large, resulting in difficulty in insertion. situation.
為避免此情況，請回到圖2B，在本實施例中，透過凹溝114的延伸長度大於開口111至較靠近第一環狀溝槽115的那個第二環狀溝槽116 之間的距離，且凹溝114的深度大於第二環狀溝槽116的深度的設計。在***過程中，對接部212在接觸到彈性密封環130之前，位於內部空間113的空氣可自凹溝114排出，而有效地避免內部空間113逐漸縮小時，氣體壓力過大而讓使用者要施以很大的***力才可以***插頭連接器200的狀況。To avoid this, please return to FIG. 2B. In this embodiment, the length of the through-groove 114 is greater than the opening 111 to the second annular groove 116 that is closer to the first annular groove 115. The distance between the grooves 114 is greater than the depth of the second annular groove 116. During the insertion process, before the contact portion 212 contacts the elastic sealing ring 130, the air located in the inner space 113 can be discharged from the groove 114, and the internal pressure 113 is effectively prevented from being gradually reduced, and the gas pressure is too large for the user to apply. The condition of the plug connector 200 can be inserted with a large insertion force.
再進一步地解釋，若將第一殼體110內對接部212可移動的空間分為一第一區域Z1與一第二區域Z2，第一區域Z1是在凹溝114旁的空間，第二區域Z2被夾在第一區域Z1與壁面117之間。當對接部212進入第一區域Z1時，位於第一區域Z1與第二區域Z2內的空氣尚可從凹溝114排出，而使得內部空間113中的壓力可維持接近外界的大氣壓力。當對接部繼續往內移動到第二區域Z2時，由於第二區域Z2並未與凹溝114連通，第二區域Z2內的空氣壓力會隨著逐漸縮小的空間而逐漸增加。因此，此時，使用者會必須施以更大的力量才能將插頭連接器***。It is further explained that if the space in which the docking portion 212 in the first housing 110 is movable is divided into a first area Z1 and a second area Z2, the first area Z1 is a space beside the groove 114, and the second area Z2 is sandwiched between the first zone Z1 and the wall surface 117. When the abutting portion 212 enters the first region Z1, the air located in the first region Z1 and the second region Z2 can still be discharged from the groove 114, so that the pressure in the internal space 113 can maintain the atmospheric pressure close to the outside. When the docking portion continues to move inwardly to the second region Z2, since the second region Z2 is not in communication with the groove 114, the air pressure in the second region Z2 gradually increases with the gradually decreasing space. Therefore, at this time, the user will have to exert more force to insert the plug connector.
在本實施例中，凹溝114的長度延伸至第一環狀溝槽115與第二環狀溝槽116之間的位置。也就是說，內部空間113中的氣體會由凹溝114排出，直到對接部212接觸到彈性密封環130時。此時，由於對接部212的端部218與內部空間113中最遠離開口111的壁面117之間的空間已相當小了，即便這些氣體不能夠被排出，使用者也不需要施加太多的壓力便能使對接部212的端部218繼續往壁面117推去。因此，在本實施例中，插座連接器100透過凹溝114排氣的設計，可使得***力不致於過大。In the present embodiment, the length of the groove 114 extends to a position between the first annular groove 115 and the second annular groove 116. That is, the gas in the internal space 113 is discharged by the groove 114 until the abutting portion 212 comes into contact with the elastic sealing ring 130. At this time, since the space between the end portion 218 of the abutting portion 212 and the wall surface 117 of the inner space 113 farthest from the opening 111 is relatively small, even if these gases cannot be discharged, the user does not need to apply too much pressure. The end 218 of the abutment 212 can continue to be pushed toward the wall 117. Therefore, in the present embodiment, the design of the socket connector 100 through the venting of the groove 114 allows the insertion force to be not excessive.
藉由上述設計，插頭連接器200***插座連接器100時所需施以的力量可被控制在一特定範圍之內。在本實施例中，***力約在1.2公斤至5公斤之間，但***力的範圍可視需求自行調整，此處僅在表示其中一個 本配置方式可提供的***力的數值範圍，***力的大小並不以此為限制。With the above design, the force required to insert the plug connector 200 into the receptacle connector 100 can be controlled within a specific range. In this embodiment, the insertion force is between about 1.2 kg and 5 kg, but the range of the insertion force can be adjusted according to the needs, and only one of them is indicated here. The range of values of the insertion force that can be provided by this configuration mode is not limited by the magnitude of the insertion force.
圖4A是圖1A的插頭連接器連接至插座連接器的立體示意圖。圖4B是圖4A的側視示意圖。圖4C是圖4B的剖面示意圖。請參閱圖4A至圖4C，當插頭連接器200***插座連接器100時，第一端子組120對接於第二端子組220，且對接部212的外表面214會接觸彈性密封環130與彈性固定環140。由於彈性固定環140及彈性密封環130與對接部212的外表面214之間的摩擦力會使插頭連接器200不會輕易地脫離插座連接器100，使用者需施以一定大小的力量才能夠將插頭連接器200拔出。因此，本實施例的連接器組合10，可提供一定的插拔強度。4A is a perspective view of the plug connector of FIG. 1A coupled to a receptacle connector. Figure 4B is a side elevational view of Figure 4A. 4C is a schematic cross-sectional view of FIG. 4B. Referring to FIG. 4A to FIG. 4C , when the plug connector 200 is inserted into the socket connector 100 , the first terminal set 120 is butted to the second terminal set 220 , and the outer surface 214 of the abutting portion 212 contacts the elastic sealing ring 130 and is elastically fixed. Ring 140. Since the friction between the elastic fixing ring 140 and the elastic sealing ring 130 and the outer surface 214 of the abutting portion 212 causes the plug connector 200 not to be easily detached from the socket connector 100, the user needs to apply a certain amount of force. Pull out the plug connector 200. Therefore, the connector assembly 10 of the present embodiment can provide a certain insertion and removal strength.
在本實施例中，拔出力需要大於1.2公斤，但拔出力的大小可視需求自行調整，此處僅在說明本配置方式可提供的拔出力強度，拔出力的大小並不以此為限制。In this embodiment, the pull-out force needs to be greater than 1.2 kg, but the pull-out force can be adjusted according to the requirements. Here, only the pull-out force strength that can be provided by the configuration mode is described, and the pull-out force is not For the limit.
另外，在本實施例中，彈性密封環130及各彈性固定環140分別為一O形環(O-ring)，公規的O形環具有較低的成本以及易取得性的優點。此外，在本實施例中，彈性密封環130及各彈性固定環140的尺寸相同。當然，彈性密封環130及彈性固定環140的種類及尺寸不以此為限制。In addition, in the present embodiment, the elastic sealing ring 130 and each of the elastic fixing rings 140 are respectively an O-ring, and the O-ring of the common gauge has the advantages of low cost and easy accessibility. Further, in the present embodiment, the elastic sealing ring 130 and each of the elastic fixing rings 140 have the same size. Of course, the type and size of the elastic sealing ring 130 and the elastic fixing ring 140 are not limited thereto.
此外，由於第一環狀溝槽115並未連通於凹溝114，當對接部212接觸彈性密封環130時，位於第一環狀溝槽115內的彈性密封環130可緊貼於對接部212的外表面214與插座連接器100的內表面112，而達到防水的效果。In addition, since the first annular groove 115 does not communicate with the groove 114, when the abutting portion 212 contacts the elastic sealing ring 130, the elastic sealing ring 130 located in the first annular groove 115 can be closely attached to the abutting portion 212. The outer surface 214 and the inner surface 112 of the receptacle connector 100 achieve a waterproofing effect.
圖5是依照本創作的另一實施例的一種插座連接器的局部剖面示意圖。為了清楚表示第二環狀溝槽與凹溝之間的關係，在圖5中隱藏彈 性密封環與彈性固定環。請參閱圖5，圖5的插座連接器300與圖2A所示的插座連接器100的主要差異在於，在上一實施例中，凹溝114橫跨兩個第二環狀溝槽116。換句話說，兩個第二環狀溝槽116均連通於凹溝114。在本實施例中，凹溝314只橫跨靠近開口311的那一個第二環狀溝槽316。也就是說，只有靠近開口311的那一個第二環狀溝槽316連通於凹溝314，較為遠離開口311的第二環狀溝槽316並未連通於凹溝314。5 is a partial cross-sectional view of a receptacle connector in accordance with another embodiment of the present invention. In order to clearly show the relationship between the second annular groove and the groove, the hidden bomb in FIG. 5 Sealing ring and elastic retaining ring. Referring to FIG. 5, the main difference between the receptacle connector 300 of FIG. 5 and the receptacle connector 100 of FIG. 2A is that in the previous embodiment, the recess 114 spans the two second annular grooves 116. In other words, both of the second annular grooves 116 are in communication with the grooves 114. In the present embodiment, the groove 314 spans only a second annular groove 316 adjacent the opening 311. That is, only the second annular groove 316 near the opening 311 communicates with the groove 314, and the second annular groove 316 that is farther away from the opening 311 does not communicate with the groove 314.
在插頭連接器(未繪示)***插座連接器300的過程中，由於位於內部空間313內的空氣可藉由凹溝314排出。因此，凹溝314延伸的長度影響會有多少空氣從內部空間313中被排出。若製造者欲使插頭連接器需要以較大的***力來插進插座連接器300時，可如同本實施例所示，採用長度較小的凹溝314，以加大第二區域Z2的空間，而讓使用者需要施以較大的力量來推動插頭連接器。相反地，若製造者欲讓插頭連接器用較小的***力便能夠插進插座連接器100時，便可如上一實施例所示，使用較長的凹溝114。During insertion of the plug connector (not shown) into the receptacle connector 300, air trapped within the interior space 313 can be expelled by the recess 314. Thus, the length of the groove 314 extension affects how much air is expelled from the interior space 313. If the manufacturer wants to insert the plug connector into the socket connector 300 with a large insertion force, as shown in this embodiment, a groove 314 having a smaller length is used to increase the space of the second region Z2. And let the user need to apply a large force to push the plug connector. Conversely, if the manufacturer wants to allow the plug connector to be inserted into the receptacle connector 100 with a small insertion force, a longer recess 114 can be used as shown in the previous embodiment.
當然，製造者可視實際狀況調整凹溝314之內部空間311的深度之間的比例關係，以獲得所需的***手感。Of course, the manufacturer can adjust the proportional relationship between the depths of the internal spaces 311 of the grooves 314 depending on the actual conditions to obtain the desired insertion feel.
圖6是依照本創作的再一實施例的一種插座連接器的局部剖面示意圖。請參閱圖6，圖6的插座連接器400與圖2A所示的插座連接器100的主要差異在於，在圖2A所示的實施例中，彈性固定環140的數量有兩個，且每個彈性固定環140的寬度較小。在本實施例中，彈性固定環440的數量只有一個，但此彈性固定環440具有較大的寬度。6 is a partial cross-sectional view of a receptacle connector in accordance with still another embodiment of the present invention. Referring to FIG. 6, the main difference between the socket connector 400 of FIG. 6 and the socket connector 100 shown in FIG. 2A is that, in the embodiment shown in FIG. 2A, the number of the elastic fixing rings 140 is two, and each The width of the elastic retaining ring 140 is small. In the present embodiment, the number of the elastic fixing rings 440 is only one, but the elastic fixing ring 440 has a large width.
由於插座連接器400是透過彈性固定環440、彈性密封環430 與對接部(未繪示)的外表面之間的摩擦力來使插頭連接器(未繪示)固定於插座連接器400。換句話說，只要彈性固定環440與對接部的外表面之間的摩擦力大小會影響插頭連接器拔出於插座連接器400的困難度。摩擦力的大小與接觸面之間的摩擦係數以及接觸面積有關。以接觸面積而言，本實施例的彈性固定環440的數量雖僅有一個，但由於其寬度為圖2A的彈性固定環140的兩倍寬度，因此，本實施例的彈性固定環440可提供實質上與圖2A的兩個彈性固定環140所能提供的相同接觸面積，而達到相同的拔出手感。當然，製造者可視需求調整彈性固定環440、彈性密封環430的材質與寬度，以提供合適的摩擦力。Since the socket connector 400 is transmitted through the elastic fixing ring 440 and the elastic sealing ring 430 A frictional force between the outer surface of the butt portion (not shown) is used to secure the plug connector (not shown) to the receptacle connector 400. In other words, as long as the amount of friction between the resilient retaining ring 440 and the outer surface of the abutment affects the difficulty of the plug connector being pulled out of the receptacle connector 400. The amount of friction is related to the coefficient of friction between the contact faces and the contact area. In terms of the contact area, although the number of the elastic fixing rings 440 of the present embodiment is only one, since the width is twice the width of the elastic fixing ring 140 of FIG. 2A, the elastic fixing ring 440 of the present embodiment can provide The same contact area as that provided by the two elastic retaining rings 140 of Fig. 2A is achieved, and the same pull-out feel is achieved. Of course, the manufacturer can adjust the material and width of the elastic fixing ring 440 and the elastic sealing ring 430 as needed to provide suitable friction.
綜上所述，本創作的連接器組合之插頭連接器的對接部在***插座連接器的內部空間的過程中，由於對接部的外徑大於彈性固定環的內徑，對接部的外表面會與彈性固定環接觸，而提供摩擦力。因此，使用者需要施以一定的力量才能***。並且，在***過程中，對接部在接觸到彈性密封環之前，位於內部空間的空氣可自凹溝排出，可有效地避免內部空間逐漸縮小時，氣體壓力過大而造成難以***的狀況。藉由上述設計，插頭連接器***插座連接器時所需施以的力量可被控制在一特定範圍之內。同樣地，當插頭連接器完全接合於插座連接器時，彈性固定環所提供的摩擦力可使插頭連接器不會輕易地脫離插座連接器，使用者需施以一定大小的力量才能夠將插頭連接器拔出。換句話說，本創作的插座連接器及連接器組合，可提供一定的插拔強度，除了插頭連接器不會輕易地脫離插座連接器之外，也可提供給使用者插拔時的手感。另外，由於可採用公規的O形環作為彈性固定環，插座連接器具有較低的成本。此外，由於第一環 狀溝槽並未連通於凹溝，當對接部接觸彈性密封環時，位於第一環狀溝槽內的彈性密封環可緊貼於對接部的外表面與插座連接器的內表面，而達到防水的效果。In summary, in the process of inserting the abutting portion of the plug connector of the connector assembly of the present invention into the inner space of the socket connector, since the outer diameter of the abutting portion is larger than the inner diameter of the elastic fixing ring, the outer surface of the abutting portion may Contact with the elastic retaining ring to provide friction. Therefore, the user needs to exert a certain amount of force to insert. Moreover, during the insertion process, the air in the internal space can be discharged from the groove before the abutting portion contacts the elastic sealing ring, which can effectively prevent the gas pressure from being too large and causing difficulty in insertion when the internal space is gradually reduced. With the above design, the force required to insert the plug connector into the receptacle connector can be controlled within a specific range. Similarly, when the plug connector is fully engaged with the receptacle connector, the friction provided by the resilient retaining ring allows the plug connector to not easily disengage from the receptacle connector, and the user must apply a certain amount of force to enable the plug The connector is pulled out. In other words, the combination of the socket connector and the connector of the present invention can provide a certain plug strength, and the plug connector can be easily removed from the socket connector, and can also provide the user with the feeling when plugging and unplugging. In addition, the socket connector has a lower cost since a public-standard O-ring can be used as the elastic fixing ring. In addition, due to the first ring The groove is not connected to the groove. When the abutting portion contacts the elastic sealing ring, the elastic sealing ring located in the first annular groove can be in close contact with the outer surface of the abutting portion and the inner surface of the socket connector. Waterproof effect.
