Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of electric connectors, and more specifically to a novel large current through-hole terminal. Background Art
[0002] The power supply box mainly provides operating power for vacuum circuit breakers and other high-voltage switches. The power supply box uses an input voltage of 220V or 380V, which is rectified by a thyristor voltage regulator, and outputs DC. It has the characteristics of outputting DC voltage with multiple gears and large current, or AC voltage, and performs single-open and single-close operations.
[0003] The power box is the control center that directs the reasonable distribution of electric energy among various components in the power supply line. It is the control link that reliably receives the upper power supply and correctly feeds the load electric energy. It is also the key to whether the user is satisfied with the power supply quality.
[0004] The power box is generally assembled in a closed or semi-closed metal cabinet or on a screen according to the requirements of electrical wiring, with switchgear, measuring instruments, protective electrical appliances and auxiliary equipment, to form a low-voltage power box. In normal operation, the circuit can be connected or disconnected with the help of manual or automatic switches; in case of failure or abnormal operation, the circuit can be cut off or alarmed with the help of protective electrical appliances; various parameters in operation can be displayed with the help of measuring instruments, and some electrical parameters can be adjusted, and prompts or signals can be issued for deviations from normal working conditions.
[0005] The conventional power box connector and the wiring harness / copper busbar inside the power box are connected by screws. Specifically, when connecting, you first need to loosen the screws on the connector to facilitate the insertion of the wiring harness or copper busbar in the power box, and then tighten the screws to achieve current conduction. However, as the current increases, especially at the connector end and the equipment copper busbar bolt connection, due to limited contact area and uneven contact pressure distribution, resistance is easily increased, resulting in high temperature at the connection point between the power box and the connector, thereby affecting the overall performance of the product; secondly, this connection method is extremely inconvenient and increases the difficulty of work for operators.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0027] The following detailed description and drawings of the embodiments of the present invention are used to illustrate the principle of the present invention, but cannot be used to limit the scope of the present invention, that is, the present invention is not limited to the embodiments described.
[0028] In order to better understand the present invention, the present invention is further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments:
[0029] See also Figure 1 to Figure 4 As shown, an embodiment of the utility model provides a new type of large current through-hole terminal, including an insulating base 1 and a conductive component 2, wherein a plug-in hole 11 is provided at one end of the insulating base 1; the conductive component 2 is located in the insulating base 1, and the conductive component 2 includes a conductive member 21 and a double-layer metal spring 22, wherein one end of the double-layer metal spring 22 is fixedly connected to the conductive member 21, and the other end of the double-layer metal spring 22 is close to the plug-in hole 11, so as to clamp the copper bus 7 or wiring harness in the power box.
[0030] Conventional power supply box terminals are usually fixedly connected to the wiring harness or copper busbar 7 in the power supply box by bolts 41. This connection method requires manual tightening of the bolts 41, which is cumbersome and time-consuming. Compared with conventional power supply box terminals, the new high-current through-hole terminal provided in the embodiment of the utility model includes an insulating base 1 and a conductive component 2, and a plug-in hole 11 is provided at one end of the insulating base 1; the conductive component 2 is located in the insulating base 1, and the conductive component 2 includes a conductive member 21 and a double-layer metal spring 22, and the wiring harness or copper busbar 7 in the power supply box is clamped by the double-layer metal spring 22, so that the power supply box and the terminal are fixedly connected, and the double-layer metal spring 22 is used to achieve plug-in connection instead of the traditional bolt 41 connection, so that the connection between the power supply box and the terminal is convenient and fast, and the difficulty of operation is reduced; secondly, the metal spring adopts a double-layer design, which enhances the strength and stability of the metal spring, and also improves the conductivity of the metal spring, and can carry a larger current, which is suitable for high-power and high-current power supply box applications.
[0031] Specifically, one end of the double-layer metal spring 22 is fixedly connected to the conductive member 21, and the other end of the double-layer metal spring 22 is close to the plug hole 11, so as to clamp the copper busbar 7 or the wiring harness in the power supply box. This design makes the insertion and connection of the copper busbar 7 or the wiring harness simpler and faster, and the operator does not need to use screws or other tools for fixing, which reduces the difficulty of operation and the error rate. At the same time, since the double-layer metal spring 22 is used for fixing, the connection reliability is enhanced, and the failure and maintenance requirements caused by poor contact are reduced, thereby reducing the maintenance cost, reducing the problem of local temperature rise, and helping to maintain the stability of the internal temperature of the power supply box.
[0032] Preferably, the double-layer metal spring 22 includes a first spring group 221 and a second spring group 222. This hierarchical design not only enhances the stability of the overall structure of the double-layer metal spring 22, but also enables the double-layer metal spring 22 to disperse stress layer by layer when subjected to external force, thereby improving durability.
[0033] Specifically, the second spring sheet group 222 is located in the first spring sheet group 221, and the first spring sheet group 221 includes two outer spring sheets 2211, which are bent relative to each other to form a first clamping opening 2212 and a first accommodating space 2213 for accommodating the second spring sheet group 222; the first clamping opening 2212 is directly used to clamp the copper bus 7 or the wiring harness in the power supply box, and the second spring sheet group 222 includes two inner spring sheets 2221, which are bent relative to each other to form a second clamping opening 2222 and a second accommodating space 2223 for accommodating the copper bus 7 or the wiring harness. The second clamping opening 2222 is also used to clamp the copper bus 7 or the wiring harness in the power supply box. This double-layer clamping design not only improves the stability of the clamping, but also makes the clamping more uniform, reducing the risk of looseness or poor contact caused by improper clamping.
[0034] It is worth mentioning that since the inner spring clip 2221 and the outer spring clip 2211 work together to clamp the copper bus 7 or wiring harness in the power box, compared with traditional terminal blocks, the current can be better distributed and conducted when passing through, reducing the generation of resistance and heat, thereby improving the overall conductive efficiency.
[0035] Preferably, both sides of the conductive member 21 are provided with bayonet holes, the end of the inner spring piece 2221 away from the plug hole 11 is provided with a first bayonet protrusion 2224, the end of the outer spring piece 2211 away from the plug hole 11 is provided with a second bayonet protrusion 2214, and the first bayonet protrusion 2224 and the second bayonet protrusion 2214 are both bayoneted into the bayonet holes. This design enhances the connection firmness of the inner spring piece 2221, the outer spring piece 2211 and the conductive member 21, and effectively prevents the inner spring piece 2221 or the outer spring piece 2211 from shifting due to external force impact during use.
[0036] The novel high current via terminal provided by the embodiment of the utility model further comprises a fixing member 3 and an insulating fixing block 8 , one end of the fixing member 3 passes through the first spring sheet group 221 , the second spring sheet group 222 and the conductive member 21 and is locked in the insulating fixing block 8 .
[0037] Preferably, the conductive member 21 is arranged along the length direction of the insulating base 1, and the conductive member 21 includes a base 21a, a first connecting portion 21b and a second connecting portion 21c, the first connecting portion 21b and the second connecting portion 21c are both perpendicular to the base 21a, and in the width direction of the insulating base 1, the projections of the first connecting portion 21b and the second connecting portion 21c do not overlap. Specifically, the base 21a, the first connecting portion 21b and the second connecting portion 21c are an integrated structure. This design allows the first connecting portion 21b and the second connecting portion 21c to be staggered, so as to facilitate the separate connection of the wiring harness.
[0038] Specifically, it also includes a fastening assembly 4, which is used to connect the cable to the conductive member 21. The fastening assembly 4 includes a bolt 41, a nut 42, a circular gasket 43 and an elastic gasket 44. The circular gasket 43 and the elastic gasket 44 are both sleeved on the bolt 41, and the bolt 41 passes through the first connecting part 21b or the second connecting part 21c and is locked on the nut 42.
[0039] Preferably, a cover plate 5 is provided at the rear end of the insulating base 1 , and the cover plate 5 is rotatably connected to the insulating base 1 .
[0040] Preferably, both upper and lower ends of the insulating base 1 are provided with elastic buckles 12, and the outer side of the elastic buckle 12 is provided with a through groove 13 penetrating the wall thickness of the insulating base 1, and the elastic buckle 12 is used to buckle with the side wall 6 of the power box. Specifically, when the insulating base 1 is pushed from outside the power box to be inserted into the power box, the elastic buckle 12 is pressed by the side wall 6 of the power box so that the elastic buckle 12 is bent and enters the inner cavity of the insulating base 1. When the insulating base 1 is pushed to the specified position, the elastic buckle 12 rebounds due to its own elastic force to restore deformation, so that the elastic buckle 12 automatically buckles with the side wall 6 of the power box, thereby preventing the terminal from falling off from the power box.
