Components And Connection Methods Of Aviation Plug Connectors
A category of aviation plug connectors. The aviation plug is an electromechanical component that connects electrical lines, so its own electrical parameters are the first issues to be considered when choosing an aviation plug. Correct selection and use of aviation plugs is an important aspect of ensuring circuit reliability. So do you know what are the components of the aviation plug connector? Do you know what are the connection methods of aviation plug connectors? Let's let Chengyang Electric tell you the components and connection methods of aviation plug connectors. Let's take a look.
Components of aviation plugs
1. Aviation plug contact body
It is usually formed by cutting or no cutting. Cylindrical pins and sockets are widely used because of their simple structure, reliable contact, and easy processing of various specifications.
2. Insulator
The insulating member of the aviation plug insulator fixing the contact body not only ensures the mutual electrical insulation between the multiple contact bodies, but also plays the role of guiding, positioning and sealing. The material and structure of the insulator directly affect the electrical and mechanical properties of the aviation plug. According to the hardness of the material, there are elastic, semi-hard and hard insulators. Commonly used materials are rubber, plastic, ceramics and glass.
3. Shell
The aviation plug housing fixes and protects the insulator and the contact body. There are positioning, guiding and locking mechanisms on the housing to ensure that the aviation plug can work correctly. The shell sometimes also plays the role of sealing, waterproof, fireproof and electric field shielding. The shell of the circular connector has locking types such as thread, bayonet and in-line self-locking, which is convenient for connection in the case of multiple contacts and large insertion force.
How to connect the aviation connector
1. Among them, the threaded connection is the most common. It has the advantages of simple processing technology, low manufacturing cost and wide application range, but the connection speed is slow and it is not suitable for occasions requiring frequent plugging and quick connection;
2. The bayonet connection has a faster connection speed due to the longer lead of its three bayonet slots, but it is more complicated to manufacture and the cost is higher;
3. The marble connection is the fastest connection among the three connection methods. It does not need to perform rotational movement, but only needs to perform linear movement to realize the functions of connection, separation and locking. Since it is a direct push-pull connection, it is only suitable for aviation plugs with small total separation force. Generally, it is more common in small aviation plugs.
The above are the components and connection methods of aviation plug connectors. I hope to bring you some help. If you need high-quality aviation plug connectors, you can contact us at any time.
