SHIELDING DEVICE
A shielding device includes a frame body and a connector. The frame body is composed of multiple sideboards. One of the sideboards is formed with a receiving hole and at least three arcuate slots. The connector has a main body section, a connection end section and at least three arcuate protrusions. The three arcuate protrusions are formed on an end face of the main body section at a front end of the connector corresponding to the arcuate slots. The arcuate protrusions are fixedly installed in the arcuate slots of the frame body to securely connect the connector with the frame body. Accordingly, the shielding device meets the requirement for high torque specification.

1. Field of the Invention
The present invention relates generally to a shielding device, and more particularly to a shielding device with high torque.
2. Description of the Related Art
To overcome the above problem, the junction between the frame body 11 and the connector 12 can be manually welded to increase the torque of the conventional shielding device. However, such solution will lead to deformation of the frame body 11. Moreover, the additional reinforcing operation will cause extra cost and increase of working time.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTIONA primary object of the present invention is to provide a shielding device with high torque.
To achieve the above and other objects, shielding device of the present invention includes a frame body and a connector. The frame body is composed of multiple sideboards. One of the sideboards is formed with a receiving hole and at least three arcuate slots formed around the receiving hole. The connector has a main body section, a connection end section and at least three arcuate protrusions. The three arcuate protrusions are formed on an end face of the main body section at a front end of the connector corresponding to the arcuate slots. The arcuate protrusions are installed into the arcuate slots of the frame body and then riveted to securely connect the connector with the frame body. The arcuate protrusions of the connector are assembled in the arcuate slots of the frame body to securely connect the connector with the frame body, whereby the shielding device can have a torque value over 60 kg-cm. The shielding device of the present invention meets the requirement for high torque specification.
The structure and the technical means adopted by the present invention to achieve the above and other objects can be best understood by referring to the following detailed description of the preferred embodiments and the accompanying drawings, wherein:
Please refer to
The configuration of the frame body 21 can be designed according to the requirement of the manufacturer. In this embodiment, the frame body 21 has the form of a rectangular solid. The frame body 21 is composed of four sideboards 22. One of the four sideboards 22 is formed with a receiving hole 23 and at least three arcuate slots 24. As shown in
The connector 30 has a main body section 31, a connection end section 32 and multiple arcuate protrusions 33. Referring to
An outer surface of the connection end section 32 is formed with a thread for locking with a coupling connector and mechanically and electrically connecting with the coupling connector.
The present invention is characterized in that the three arcuate protrusions 33 of the connector 30 are assembled in the three arcuate slots 24 of the frame body 21 to securely connect the connector 30 with the frame body 21. The shielding device 20 of the present invention can have a torque value over 60 kg-cm. The shielding device 20 of the present invention meets the requirement for high torque specification.
In conclusion, the shielding device 20, 40 of the present invention meets the requirement for high torque specification without any additional reinforcing measure.
The above embodiments are only used to illustrate the present invention, not intended to limit the scope thereof. It is understood that many changes or modifications of the above embodiments can be made by those who are skilled in this field without departing from the spirit of the present invention. The scope of the present invention is limited only by the appended claims.
