Abstract

Disclosed is a magnetic connector comprising a body having a mounting cavity, the body comprising a PCB received in the mounting cavity, a first conductive terminal soldered to one side of the PCB and extending toward an opening of the mounting cavity, a first magnet disposed along the periphery of the PCB and on the same side as the first conductive terminal. The body further has a first anti-off device which is formed with an insulating bushing enclosing the first conductive terminal or the first magnet. The magnetic connector provided by the present invention has advantages that the connection is more stable and more durable, that the service life is longer, and that a certain degree of solid connection can be maintained even if a part of the anti-off device has failed, which is of a good fault tolerance.

Claims (28)

1. A magnetic connector comprising a body having a mounting cavity, the body comprising:

a PCB received in the mounting cavity;

a first conductive terminal soldered on a side of the PCB and extending toward an opening of the mounting cavity; and

a first magnet disposed along the periphery of the PCB and on the same side as the first conductive terminal;

wherein the body is further provided with a first anti-off device dedicated to the first conductive terminal or the first magnet to prevent point detachment, the first anti-off device being provided with an insulating bushing embracing the first conductive terminal or the first magnet, the first conductive terminal or the first magnet being placed in a first limiting hole of the insulating bushing, and the insulating bushing is configured to:

receive at least a portion of an external matching second conductive terminal when the first conductive terminal is in contact with the second conductive terminal oppositely in an axial direction and forms electric conduction to limit displacement of the second conductive terminal in a direction transverse to the axial direction; or

receive at least a portion of an external matching second magnet when the first magnet is magnetically attracted to the second magnet oppositely in an axial direction to limit displacement of the second magnet in a direction transverse to the axial direction.

2. The magnetic connector according to claim 1 , wherein the body is circular; the first anti-off device comprises an insulator dedicated to the first conductive terminal;

the first magnet is annular; and the first conductive terminal is a spring probe.

3. The magnetic connector according to claim 1 , wherein body is of square shape; the first anti-off device comprises an insulating bracket dedicated to the first magnet; and the first magnet is located on either side of the square body.

4. The magnetic connector according to claim 1 , wherein the body is of square shape; the first anti-off device includes an insulating bracket dedicated to the first conductive terminal; and the first magnet is hollow cylindrical.

5. A magnetic connector comprising a body, the body comprising:

a PCB,

a second conductive terminal soldered to a side of the PCB, and

a second magnet disposed along the periphery of the PCB and on the same side as the second conductive terminal;

wherein the body is further provided with a second anti-off device dedicated to the second conductive terminal or the second magnet; the second anti-off device is formed with an insulating bushing embracing the second conductive terminal or the second magnet; the second conductive terminal or the second magnet is located in a second limiting hole of the insulating bushing; and the insulating bushing is configured so that

the second conductive terminal or the second magnet protrudes from the second limiting hole, or

a portion of the insulating bushing surrounding the second conductive terminal, protrudes with respect to a plane where the second magnet locates.

6. The magnetic connector according to claim 5 , wherein the body is circular; the second anti-off device comprises an insulator dedicated to the second conductive terminal; the second magnet is annular; and the second conductive terminal is a spring probe.

7. The magnetic connector according to claim 5 , wherein body is square;

the second anti-off device comprises an insulating bracket dedicated to the second magnet; and

the second magnet locates on either side of the square body.

8. The magnetic connector according to claim 5 , wherein the body is square; the second anti-off device comprises an insulating bracket dedicated to the second conductive terminal; and the second magnet is hollow cylindrical.

9. A garment or protective clothing for intelligent heating, comprising:

a magnetic connector according to claim 5 ;

a rear cover for locking with the magnetic connector;

a first carrier and a second carrier, wherein the first carrier or the second carrier is provided with an opening, and the magnetic connector is locked with the rear cover through the opening and fixed on the first carrier or the second carrier; and

a heating unit fixed between the first carrier and the second carrier and not exposed to the outside, wherein a heating part of the heating unit is connected to the magnetic connector through a wiring harness.
