DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0046] In the description of the present disclosure, it should be understood that the orientations or positional relationships indicated by the terms “front”, “rear”, “up”, “down”, “left”, “right”, etc. are based on the orientations or positional relationships shown in the accompanying drawings and are merely for ease in describing the present disclosure and simplifying this description, but not to indicate or imply that an indicated device or element must have a particular orientation and be constructed and operated in a particular orientation, and thus they should not be construed as limitations on the present disclosure.
[0047] The following further describes the content of the present disclosure in detail in conjunction with the specific embodiments. FIG. 1 and FIG. 2 show a schematic 3D view and a schematic exploded view of a high-current high-frequency electrical connector plug applicable to network data transmission in the present disclosure respectively. It can be seen that the electrical connector plug mainly includes a plug housing 1, a bayonet socket 2, etc. The bayonet socket 2 is inserted into the plug housing 1 in a front-rear direction, and a relative position thereof is locked. The bayonet socket 2 includes an upper terminal block 21, a lower terminal block 22 and an insulating plastic body 23. An insertion cavity 231 for placing a socket tongue of an electrical connector receptacle is formed in the insulating plastic body 23. The upper terminal block 21 and the lower terminal block 22 are inserted and fixed into a top wall and a bottom wall of the insertion cavity 231 respectively and each have one section extending into the insertion cavity 231. The periphery of the plug housing 1 is sequentially provided with a left rounded part 11, a right rounded part 12, a left chamfered part 13 and a right chamfered part 14. The left rounded part 11 is formed by round corner transition of a bottom wall and a left side wall of the plug housing 1 and has a radius not greater than 0.25 mm. The right rounded part 12 is formed by round corner transition of a right side wall and a bottom wall of the plug housing 1 and has a radius not greater than 0.25 mm. During the manufacturing and forming process of an electrical connector, an electrical connector receptacle matched with the electrical connector plug further needs to adaptively be structurally changed (as shown in FIG. 3 to FIG. 10). Thus, an insertion part of the plug housing 1 adopts a special-shaped design (one part extends outwardly compared with a rounded part of a conventional housing) so as not to be matched with conventional receptacles. When multiple electrical connectors are arranged side by side, conventional electrical connector receptacles do not adopt an adaptive remodel design, and therefore workers certainly fail to insert the remodeled plug into conventional receptacles due to interference even if they perform misoperation (as shown in FIG. 15), mixed insertion and misinsertion of the connector plug into conventional receptacles are effectively prevented, and finally it is ensured that signals are correctly transmitted.
[0048] As a further optimization on the high-current high-frequency electrical connector plug applicable to network data transmission, the insulating plastic body 23 is further additionally provided with a left fool-proofing inwardly-extending part 232 and a right fool-proofing inwardly-extending part 233. The left fool-proofing inwardly-extending part 232 and the right fool-proofing inwardly-extending part 233 are both formed by extending downwardly from a top wall of the insertion cavity 231 and are opposite to each other (as shown in FIG. 9 and FIG. 10). Thus, an insulating plastic body of a conventional electrical connector receptacle is not provided with avoidance structures, and therefore insertion fails in case of misinsertion because the left fool-proofing inwardly-extending part 232 and the right fool-proofing inwardly-extending part 233 may be interfered with by the insulating plastic body of the conventional electrical connector receptacle.
[0049] It should be noted that an electrical connector receptacle needs to be adaptively structurally improved to be correctly inserted into the electrical connector plug in the present disclosure. Specifically, a rounding size of an electrical connector receptacle housing needs to be reduced to be matched with the left rounded part 11 and the right rounded part 12; and accordingly a fool-proofing protruding strip further needs to be disposed on a socket tongue of the electrical connector receptacle to be matched with the left fool-proofing inwardly-extending part 232 and the right fool-proofing inwardly-extending part 233 (as shown in FIG. 13 and FIG. 14).
[0050] It is learned that insertion connection reliability of the electrical connector plug and the electrical connector receptacle has a significant impact on a signal transmission process. In view of this, accordingly the bayonet socket 2 of the electrical connector plug is further correspondingly additionally provided with a left hook member 24 and a right hook member 25. The left hook member 24 and the right hook member 25 are both inserted and fixed into the insulating plastic body 23 and are opposite to each other in a left-right direction. A left hook 241 extends rightwards from a right side wall of the left hook member 24. A right hook 251 extends leftwards from a left side wall of the right hook member 25 (as shown in FIG. 6, FIG. 7 and FIG. 8). Thus, when the electrical connector plug is inserted into the electrical connector receptacle, the left hook member 24 and the right hook member 25 disposed on two sides of the insulating plastic body 23 of the electrical connector plug slide along two side walls of the socket tongue of the electrical connector receptacle all the time until entering a left slot and a right slot matched with the left hook 241 and the right hook 251 in a one-to-one correspondence manner, and therefore reliable connection between the electrical connector plug and the electrical connector receptacle is implemented.
[0051] As a further optimization on the above technical solution, a left avoidance notch 234 may further be formed on a left side wall of the insulating plastic body 23 right corresponding to an insertion position of the left hook member 24. A right avoidance notch 235 may further be formed on a right side wall of the insulating plastic body 23 right corresponding to an insertion position of the right hook member 25 (as shown in FIG. 6, FIG. 8, FIG. 9 and FIG. 10). Thus, on the premise of ensuring fixation reliability of the left hook member 24, the right hook member 25 to the insulating plastic body 23, the left hook member 24 and the right hook member 25 are made to have certain free elastic activity, and therefore on the premise of ensuring connection reliability of the electrical connector plug and the electrical connector receptacle, it is ensured that insertion and separation of the plug and the receptacle are smoothly and rapidly implemented.
[0052] It is learned that fixation connection between the plug housing 1 and the insulating plastic body 23 may be implemented by various design forms. Furthermore, an implementation solution which is simple in structural design, high in connection reliability, easy to manufacture and implement, and rapid in assembly and disassembly is recommended herein. Specifically, as shown in FIG. 1, FIG. 2, FIG. 3, FIG. 5, FIG. 9, FIG. 10, FIG. 11 and FIG. 12, upper limiting notches 15 and lower limiting notches 16 are formed in a top wall and a bottom wall of the plug housing 1 respectively. Upper limiting protrusions 236 matched with the upper limiting notches 15 extend upwardly from a top wall of the insulating plastic body 23. Lower limiting protrusions 237 matched with the lower limiting notches 16 extend downwardly from a bottom wall of the insulating plastic body 23.
[0053] Finally, it should be further noted that, to make the high-current high-frequency electrical connector plug applicable to network data transmission have two different signal transmission modes, the number of contact terminals included in the upper terminal block 21 and the number of contact terminals included in the lower terminal block 22 are further different in accordance with the requirements of code for design of signal terminals. A high-current transmission function of the electrical connector plug may be realized while Ethernet communication is implemented by configuring a PIN through a PoE protocol, and meanwhile transmittable 15G (single-terminal)-20G (differential) high-frequency data signals are set up by configuring a single high-speed signal pair. FIG. 18-1 shows a Pin definition form in a long-distance 15G single-terminal signal transmission state for high-current high-frequency electrical connector plug applicable to network data transmission in a normal application state in the present disclosure. FIG. 18-2 shows a Pin definition form in a long-distance 20G differential signal transmission state for a high-current high-frequency electrical connector plug applicable to network data transmission in a normal application state in the present disclosure.

[0055] FIG. 25 to FIG. 30 are plots illustrating results of a high-speed transmission performance test for a high-current high-frequency electrical connector plug applicable to network data transmission in the present disclosure.

Various modifications to these embodiments are readily apparent to those skilled in the art, and the general principles defined herein may be implemented in other embodiments without departing from the gist or scope of the present disclosure.
