Title:
CONNECTOR DEVICE
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2024/036989
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
A connector device is provided according to the present disclosure, which includes a floating connector assembly and a mating connector assembly. The floating connector assembly includes a base, a floating connector, a first floating unit, and a second floating unit. The first floating unit includes a through hole for receiving the floating connector and is configured to allow the floating connector to move in a radial direction of the through hole and to tilt relative to an axial direction of the through hole. The second floating unit is configured to be movable relative to the base in a direction perpendicular to the base plane. The mating connector assembly includes a mating connector. A valve assembly is provided in the floating connector and a valve unit is provided in the mating connector. The valve assembly and the valve unit are configured to be switched to an open state after the floating connector is connected with the mating connector. The second floating unit is movable to varied floating positions relative to the base after the valve assembly and the valve unit are both switched to the open state, so as to compensate for assembly deviations in the direction perpendicular to the base plane. Therefore, the connector device can absorb assembly deviations in all directions.
