Description

Magnetic power connector (3)

This creation relates to a magnetic power connector, particularly a magnetic power connector that prevents sparks or short circuits from being contacted by electrodes, making it safer to use.

A magnetic power connector, such as U.S. Patent No. 7311126, which is provided with a magnet and a ferromagnetic component for attracting magnets on the power socket connector and the power plug connector, since the plug connector is connected to the cable. Since the cable is powered, if a plurality of power terminals are exposed, it is easy to contact the conductive member to cause a spark or a short circuit, which is a disadvantage.

Therefore, in order to improve the above-mentioned unsatisfactory, this creation creates the magnetic power connector of the creation, making it safer and more practical to use.

The present invention is characterized in that it includes a plug connector having an insulative housing, a plurality of power terminals, and a first magnetic component. The insulative housing is formed with a plurality of terminal slots, and the plurality of power terminals includes at least one first power terminal. And the second power terminal is disposed on the terminal slot, the at least one first power terminal or the second power terminal is internally recessed in the terminal slot, and the first magnetic component is disposed on the insulating body; And a socket connector having a plurality of terminals and a second magnetic component, wherein the plurality of terminals are electrically connected to the first power terminal and the a second power terminal for magnetically attracting the first magnetic component. If the first power terminal and the second power terminal of the plug connector are simultaneously contacted with the conductive foreign object, the second power component is generated. A phenomenon of spark or short circuit.

Referring to the first to fourth figures, the present magnetic power connector includes a plug connector 10 and a socket connector 12.

The plug connector 10 includes an insulative housing 14, three power terminals 16, 18, 20, a first magnetic component 22 and a rear cover 24.

The insulative housing 14 is provided with a protruding post 26, and three terminal slots 28 are formed in the protruding post 26; three power terminals 16, 18, 20 are respectively received in the terminal slot 28, wherein the power terminal 16 is the first power terminal, the power terminal 18, 20 is a second power terminal, the first power terminal 16 is internally contracted inside the terminal slot 28. In the embodiment, the power terminals 16, 18, 20 respectively have a contact terminal 30, an elastic member 32 and a fixing member 34, An elastic member 32 is located on the side of the contact terminal 30 to make contact The terminal 30 is retractable, and the fixing member 34 is in contact with the contact terminal 30 and is electrically connected to a wire (not shown). A first magnetic component 22 is sleeved on the stud 26 of the insulative body 14 and surrounds the ring 30. The three power terminals 16, 18, 20 are magnets, electromagnets or ferromagnetic materials for magnets to be attracted; and a rear cover 24 is sleeved on the insulative housing 14. .

Referring to the third, fourth and fifth figures, the socket connector 12 includes a body 42, two terminals 38, 40, a second magnetic element 36 and a rear cover 44.

The main body 42 is formed with a receiving cavity 46; the two terminals 38, 40 are located in the receiving cavity 44; the terminal 38 is in electrical contact with the power terminal 16, and the terminal 40 is in contact with the power terminal 18 or the power terminal 20, and the second magnetic The component 36 is fixed to the body 42 and surrounds the two terminals 38, 40, which may be magnets or ferromagnetic components for magnets, and the rear cover 44 is attached to the body 42.

Referring to FIG. 5, the power terminal 16 of the plug connector 10 is retracted into the terminal slot 28 of the insulative housing 14, or the power terminal 18 or 20 can be retracted into the terminal slot 28 so that the plug connector 10 does not simultaneously Contact with the conductive foreign object while contacting the power terminal 16 and the power terminal 18 or 20, resulting in spark or short circuit, which can improve its service life and make it more practical.

Referring to the sixth figure, the plug connector 10 can also be reversely inserted into the socket connector 12 to make the terminal 38 in contact with the power terminal 16, and the terminal 40 is in contact with the power terminal 18 or 20, and can be forward and reversed. The effect of docking.

The specific embodiments set forth in the detailed description of the preferred embodiments are merely illustrative of the technical scope of the present invention, and are not intended to limit the scope of the present invention to the embodiments. The implementation of all kinds of changes is within the scope of this creation.
