Design and Experimental Study of Self-insulating Connectors for Separating Submerged Water
In order to realize the cross-media operation of the equipment,a prototype of the separated under-water self-insulated electrical connector has been developed.The connector separation underwater with automatic insulation function,improve equipment safety,realize cross-dielectric operation;fixed end in the ability to drive the transfer base fit at the same time to ensure that the mating surface sealing,to prevent seawater into the connec-tor inside;socket using glass sealing structure with longitudinal watertight function;connector has 73 core electrical contacts,with the transmission of electrical signals;connector through the circumference of the ball to achieve the locking and separation to improve the reliability of the connector.Improve the reliability.A series of tests such as contact insertion and separation force,hydrostatic pressure,salt spray and sealing,feasibility,etc.were conducted on the connector prototype,and the test results met the expected requirements.
