The patent describes a detonator connector designed with a wire protection structure that enhances the ease of connecting a detonator to a blasting machine. It features a conductive wiring bracket with multiple grooves for wire insertion, along with a casing that includes wire end insertion parts to accommodate bent wire ends, thereby improving efficiency and safety during the connection process.

Claim 1

1 . A detonator connector having a wire protection structure, the detonator connector comprising: a wiring bracket member made of a conductive material and provided with a plurality of wire fitting grooves into which a plurality of wires are inserted; a lower casing member on which the wiring bracket member is positioned; and an upper casing member configured to cover an upper part of the lower casing member, wherein wire end insertion parts into which end sides of the wires are inserted are provided in an inside of the lower casing member, wherein the wire end insertion parts are positioned to enable vertically folded or vertically bent ends of the wires fitted to the wire fitting grooves of the wiring bracket member to be inserted, and the vertically folded or vertically bent ends side of the wire positioned inside of the lower casing member, wherein each wire end insertion part comprises: a wire protection partition wall part for surrounding a space in which the ends of the wires are inserted, wherein a first wire is fitted to any one side of the plurality of wire fitting grooves, and a second wire is fitted to another side of the plurality of wire fitting grooves, thereby wiring the first wire and the second wire to each other, and at least any one end of the first wire and the second wire is inserted into the wire end insertion parts. a wiring bracket member made of a conductive material and provided with a plurality of wire fitting grooves into which a plurality of wires are inserted; a lower casing member on which the wiring bracket member is positioned; and an upper casing member configured to cover an upper part of the lower casing member, wherein wire end insertion parts into which end sides of the wires are inserted are provided in an inside of the lower casing member, wherein the wire end insertion parts are positioned to enable vertically folded or vertically bent ends of the wires fitted to the wire fitting grooves of the wiring bracket member to be inserted, and the vertically folded or vertically bent ends side of the wire positioned inside of the lower casing member, wherein each wire end insertion part comprises: a wire protection partition wall part for surrounding a space in which the ends of the wires are inserted, wherein a first wire is fitted to any one side of the plurality of wire fitting grooves, and a second wire is fitted to another side of the plurality of wire fitting grooves, thereby wiring the first wire and the second wire to each other, and at least any one end of the first wire and the second wire is inserted into the wire end insertion parts.
