Please refer to FIG. 1 to FIG. 3C. FIG. 1 is an exploded diagram illustrating a power storage connector according to an embodiment of the present invention. FIG. 2 is an assembly diagram illustrating the power storage connector of FIG. 1. FIG. 3A is an exploded diagram illustrating the socket of FIG. 1. FIG. 3B is a structural schematic diagram illustrating the sleeve of FIG. 1. FIG. 3C is an exploded diagram illustrating the plug of FIG. 1. As shown in FIG. 1 and FIG. 2, the power storage connector E of the present invention includes a socket 1, a sleeve 2 and a plug 3. The sleeve 2 is configured to sleeve the socket 1 and to rotate on the socket 1. The plug 3 matches to the socket 1 and the sleeve 2. The plug 3 is connected to the socket 1 through the sleeve 2.


As shown in FIG. 3A, in the present embodiment, the socket 1 includes a fixed plate 10, a connecting unit 11 and a socket terminal 12. The fixed plate 10 has a plane 101. The connecting unit 11 is configured on the plane 101 and protrudes outward from the plane 101. The connecting unit 11 includes a cylindrical and has an axis 110. The fixed plate 10 further has a hole (not shown) which is configured on the connecting unit 11. The socket terminal 12 passes through the hole of the fixed plate 10 along the axis 110 and one end of the socket terminal 12 is configured in the connecting unit 11. The other end of the socket terminal 12 protrudes from the fixed plate 10. In practice, the fixed plate 10 can be fixed on the equipments or printed circuit boards. When the socket 1 and the plug 3 are connected to each other, the connecting unit 11 and the one end of the socket terminal 12 of the connecting unit 11 is connected to the plug 3, and the other end of the socket terminal 12 can be connected to a cable or a bond pad of the printed circuit board.


As shown in FIG. 2, FIG. 3A and FIG. 3B, the sleeve 2 sleeves the outside of the connecting unit 11 of the socket 1 and is located on the end of the connecting unit 11 which is near the fixed plate 10. The inner diameter of sleeve 2 is corresponding to the outer diameter of the connecting unit 11. Furthermore, the length of sleeve 2 is less than the length of the connecting unit 11. Thus, the connecting unit 11 and the end of the socket terminal 12 protrude from the sleeve 2 to connect with the plug 3 when the sleeve 2 sleeves the connecting unit 11.


In this embodiment, the socket 1 further includes a limiting structure 13 and the sleeve 2 further includes a limited component 21. The limiting structure 13 is configured around the outside of the connecting unit 11. The limited component 21 is configured on the inside wall of the sleeve 2. The limiting structure 13 and the limited component 21 match each other, and the limited component 21 is configured to move in the limiting structure 13. As shown in FIG. 3B and FIG. 3C, the limiting structure 13 is configured at the end of the connecting unit 11 which is near the fixed plate 10, and the limited component 21 is configured at the end of the sleeve 2. Therefore, when the sleeve 2 sleeves the connecting unit 11, the sleeve 2 is configured at the end of the connecting unit 11 which is near the fixed plate 10. In practice, the position of the limiting structure 13 and the limited component 21 can be determined according to the design or requirement.


Moreover, the limiting structure 13 further includes a first ring structure 131 and a second ring structure 132. A hollow structure 133 is formed between the first ring structure 131 and the second ring structure 132, and the shape and the size of the limited component 21 match the hollow structure 133. In practice, the first ring structure 131 and the second ring structure 132 protrude from the outer surface of the connecting unit 11. At this time, a ring-shaped hollow structure 133 is formed between the first ring structure 131 and the second ring structure 132. Therefore, when the sleeve 2 sleeves the connecting unit 11, the limited component 21 of the sleeve 2 will be limited in the hollow structure 133 of the limiting structure 13 and can move along the hollow structure 133, so that the sleeve 2 can rotate with the axis 110 but not move along the axis 110. It should be noted that the shapes and configurations of the limiting structure and the limited component of the present invention are not limited hereto. The limiting structure and the limited component can be any structures matching and capable of relatively moving with each other, so as to enable the sleeve to rotate on the connecting unit.


Furthermore, in the present embodiment, the socket 1 further includes a fixing component 14 and the sleeve 2 further includes a fixing structure 22. The fixing component 14 is configured on the plane 101 of the fixed plate 10 where the connecting unit 11 is configured, and the fixing structure 22 is configured on the outside wall of the sleeve 2.

As shown in FIG. 3B, the fixing structure 22 is located at one end of the connecting unit 11 near the fixed plate 10, and the position of the fixing structure 22 is corresponding to the position of the fixing component 14. Furthermore, the fixing structure 22 includes two arc structures protruding from the outside wall of the sleeve 2, and a gap is formed between the two arc structures. The fixing component 14 protrudes from the plane 101, and the width of the fixing component 14 is equal to or slightly larger than the gap between the two arc structures. As shown in FIG. 3A and FIG. 3B, when the sleeve 2 is configured on the connecting unit 11, an installing distance is formed between the fixing component 14 and the outside wall of the sleeve 2, and the installing distance is smaller than the height of the fixing structure 22. It means that a partial interference is present between the fixing component 14 and the fixing structure 22, so as to engage the fixing component 14 in the gap. When the sleeve 2 rotates on the connecting unit 11, the fixing structure 22 contacts the fixing component 14. Then, when the sleeve 2 continues to rotate and engages the fixing component 14 into the fixing structure 22, the sleeve 2 will be fixed to the connecting unit 11. In addition, the end of the fixing component 14 near the connecting unit 11 can be arc structure. Therefore, the fixing component 14 is capable of moving and sliding with the arc structure when contacting the fixing structure 22, so as to smoothly engage in the fixing structure 22. It should be noted that the shapes and configurations of the fixing component and the fixing structure are not limited hereto. The fixing component and the fixing structure can be any structures capable of matching and engaging to each other.

The positioning groove 23 recesses inwardly from the outside wall of the sleeve 2 and is configured at the other end of the sleeve 2 opposite to the end where the fixing structure 22 is configured. The rib structure 312 and the positioning groove 23 match each other. When the plug 3 connects to the socket 1, the rib structure 312 of the plug case 31 engages in the positioning groove 23 of the sleeve 2, and the plug case 31 drives the sleeve 2 to rotate by the rib structure 312. It should be noted that the shapes and the configurations of the rib structure and the positioning groove of the present invention are not limited to the figures. The rib structure and the positioning groove can be any structures matching and engaging with each other. Moreover, the number of rib structure and positioning groove are not limited to one as shown the figures, and the rib structure and positioning groove also can be determined according to the design or requirement.


In the present embodiment, the plug 3 includes a securing component 34, the plug case 31 includes a securing hole 313, and the sleeve 2 includes a securing slot 24.

The securing slot 24 inwardly concaves from the outer wall of the sleeve 2 and is configured at one end of the sleeve 2 opposite to the end where the fixing structure 22 is configured. Furthermore, the securing hole 313 is configured on the top of the plug case 31, and the extending direction of the securing hole 313 is perpendicular to the axis 110. Moreover, when the plug 3 is plugged into the socket 1, the position of the securing slot 24 is corresponding to the position of the securing hole 313. Therefore, when the plug 3 is connected to the socket 1 and contacts the sleeve 2, the securing component 34 of the plug case 31 moves downward along the direction perpendicular to the axis 110 and then protrudes in the containing space 310 to engage in the securing slot 24 of the sleeve 2, so as to fix the plug 3 and the sleeve 2. In addition, the securing component 34 of the plug case 31 can also move upwards along the direction perpendicular to the axis 110 to disengage from the securing slot 24, so that the plug 3 can be separated from the sleeve 2.


Please refer to FIG. 3A, FIG. 3B, FIG. 3C and FIG. 5. FIG. 5 is a sectional diagram illustrating the power storage connector E of FIG. 2. As shown in FIG. 5, before the plug 3 and the socket 1 are connected to each other, the sleeve 2 sleeves the socket 1 at first. When the plug 3 is connected to the socket 1, the sleeve structure 311 of the plug 3 is connected to the connecting unit 11 protruding from the sleeve 2 of the socket 1. At this time, the sleeve structure 311 is located between the socket terminal 12 and the connecting unit 11, and the first plug terminal 331 of the plug 3 is electrically connected to the socket terminal 12. While the sleeve structure 311 is connected to the connecting unit 11, the rib structure 312 of the plug case 31 also engages in the positioning groove 23 of the sleeve 2, so as to configure the sleeve 2 and the connecting unit 11 between the plug case 31 and the sleeve structure 311. Then, the securing component 34 of the plug case 31 moves down and engages in the securing slot 24 of the sleeve 2. At this time, the plug case 31 and the sleeve 2 can be regarded as one component, and the plug case 31 links the plug 3 and the sleeve 2 to rotate on the connecting unit 11 of the socket 1 through the limited component 21 of the sleeve 2. Furthermore, when the plug 3 drives the sleeve 2 to rotate and makes the fixing component 14 of the socket 1 to engage with the fixing structure 22 of the sleeve 2, the sleeve 2 will be fixed to the connecting unit 11, so as to connect and fix the plug 3 to the socket 1.
