[0020] In the description of this application, it should be noted that, unless otherwise clearly specified and limited, the terms "installed", "connected", and "connected" should be understood in a broad sense, for example, it can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; it can be a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; it can be a direct connection, or it can be indirectly connected through an intermediate medium, or it can be the internal communication of two components. For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in this application can be understood according to specific circumstances.

[0021] See also Figure 1 A preferred embodiment of the present invention provides a terminal that is easy to connect, including a shell 1, two wiring ports and a guide light 2, wherein the shell 1 is provided with a housing cavity 101; the two wiring ports are respectively provided at two sides of the bottom of the shell 1, and the two wiring ports are electrically connected; the guide light 2 is installed in the housing cavity 101, and the guide light 2 is provided with two first guide indicating heads 201 and two second guide indicating heads 202, wherein: the two first guide indicating heads 201 pass through the top of the shell 1, and are fixed on the top of the shell 1; the two second guide indicating heads 202 respectively pass through the bottom of the shell 1, and are respectively provided corresponding to the two wiring ports.

[0022] Based on the above scheme, the principle of the terminal that is easy to connect in the preferred embodiment of the present invention is as follows: a accommodating cavity 101 is set in the shell body 1, and a wiring port is set on the shell body 1, and the wiring port is electrically connected; openings are respectively opened at the top of the shell body 1 and one side of the wiring port, and the guide light 2 is installed in the accommodating cavity 101, and the first guide indicator head 201 is extended from the top opening of the shell body 1 and fixed, and the second guide indicator head 202 is extended from the opening on one side of the wiring port and fixed, and the internal optical path of the first guide indicator head 201 and the two second guide indicator heads 202 are connected, and the installation of the terminal is completed; when it is necessary to determine the interface position of the terminal, it is only necessary to irradiate the external laser onto the first guide indicator head 201, and the second guide indicator head 202 near the interface will light up, which is convenient for locating the wiring port of the terminal.

[0023] It should be noted that a guide light is a wire made of glass or plastic that can refract light. The propagation of light depends on the reflection of light in the light-guiding material, and a single light ray can form a circuit.

[0024] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, a terminal that is convenient for wiring is provided with an accommodating cavity 101, and a guide light 2 is provided in the accommodating cavity 101, and the guide light 2 is divided into two first guide indicating heads 201 and two second guide indicating heads 202. The first guide indicating head 201 is provided on the top of the shell 1, so that the operator can observe and operate the laser injection conveniently, and the second guide indicating head 202 is provided on one side of the wiring port conveniently, so that the operator can quickly locate the wiring port, facilitate the corresponding wiring of the wiring port, avoid missed connection and wrong connection, and improve the wiring efficiency.

[0025] As a preferred solution, a buckle is provided at the bottom of the housing 1. Specifically, a buckle is provided at the bottom of the housing 1 to facilitate the installation of the terminal.

[0026] As a preferred solution, two bolt holes are opened on the top of the shell 1, and the two first guide indicating heads 201 are arranged corresponding to the two bolt holes.

[0027] As a preferred solution, a tubular connector is extended from the first guide indicator head 201. Specifically, a tubular connector is extended from the first guide indicator head 201 to facilitate the external laser injection.

[0028] See also Figure 2 and Figure 3 The preferred embodiment of the present invention further provides a terminal block 3, comprising a plurality of terminals as described above for easy wiring, wherein the plurality of the terminals are aligned and spliced ​​together.

[0029] Based on the above scheme, the terminals are aligned and spliced ​​into a terminal row 3. The three rows of terminals in the terminal row 3 are densely packed, and the wiring ports are adjacent to each other. When the human eye observes the wiring port below the terminal from the projection surface of the terminal, since there is a 90-degree angle between the projection surface of the terminal and the wiring port, when the terminals are densely packed, a vertical line of sight error will occur when observing the crimping ports on the left and right sides of the terminal from the top of the terminal, which is called the vertical line of sight difference of the terminal. The vertical line of sight difference of the terminal causes that when one end of the terminal is crimped, the other end is mistakenly connected to the wiring ports of the adjacent upper and lower terminals. Therefore, when it is necessary to determine the interface position of the terminal, it is only necessary to irradiate the external laser onto the first guide indicator head 201, and the second guide indicator head 202 near the interface will light up, which is convenient for locating the wiring port of the terminal.

[0030] As a preferred solution, a buckle is provided at the bottom of the terminal, and the terminal row 3 further includes a mounting bracket, and the buckle is mounted on the mounting bracket.

[0033] The above is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention. It should be pointed out that for ordinary technicians in this technical field, several improvements and substitutions can be made without departing from the technical principles of the present invention. These improvements and substitutions should also be regarded as the scope of protection of the present invention.
