DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0020] The present application will be further described below in combination with the drawings, but the protection scope of the present application is not limited to the following description.

[0021] As Figures 3-5As shown in the drawings, a metal positioning tooth sleeve comprises a ring-shaped connecting skin 41 and a plurality of tooth petals 42 arranged on the connecting skin 41, the plurality of tooth petals 42 are distributed along the end surface of the connecting skin 41. Specifically, the tooth petal 42 comprises a transition section 421 and a tooth petal head 422, wherein one end of the transition section 421 is connected with the connecting skin 41, the other end of the transition section 421 is bent outwardly from the connecting skin 41 and connected with the tooth petal head 422, the transition section 421 makes the whole tooth petal 42 present an outward bulging state, preferably, the connecting skin 41, the transition section 421 and the tooth petal head 422 are integrally formed.

[0022] Preferably, as shown in the drawings, Figure 3 As shown in the drawings, a hollow window 7 is arranged at the connection between the tooth petal head 422 and the transition section 421, the hollow window 7 extends from the tooth petal head 422 along the transition section 421 to the connecting skin 41, the arrangement of the hollow window 7 can improve the elasticity of the tooth petal 42, at the same time, the strength of the tooth petal 42 is not too low, thereby the tooth petal 42 has sufficient strength and elasticity; the arrangement of the transition section 421 can make the elasticity of the tooth petal 42 more soft, thereby the elastic force attenuation of the tooth petal 42 after force contraction can be reduced.

[0023] As shown in the drawings, Figure 3 A break 10 is arranged on the connecting skin 41, which is convenient for the tooth sleeve 4 to be sleeved on the contact body 3 of different sizes; an inner tongue 6 is arranged on the connecting skin 41 and bent inwardly from the connecting skin 41, specifically, the inner tongue 6 is located at the hollow window 7. As shown in the drawings, Figure 4 , 5 According to the structure of the tooth sleeve 4, a groove one 11 is arranged on the contact body 3 in the axial direction, a groove two 12 is arranged on the contact body 3 in the radial direction, when the tooth sleeve 4 is installed, the connecting skin 41 is sleeved on the contact body 3, the connecting skin 41 is inserted into the groove one 11, at the same time, the inner tongue 6 is clamped into the groove two 12, so as to realize the installation and positioning of the tooth sleeve 4; in order to prevent the tooth sleeve 4 from rotating in the circumferential direction and being bulged outwardly by external force, a second U-shaped notch 9 is arranged at the end of the inner tongue 6 away from the connecting skin 41, so that the inner tongue 6 is connected with the contact body 3 through spot riveting at the second U-shaped notch 9, thereby the tooth sleeve 4 is fixed.

[0024] When the socket is assembled, the tooth petal head 422 abuts against the insulator 2, thereby the contact body 3 is positioned. As shown in the drawings, Figure 3 , 5 The end of the tooth petal head 422 away from the connecting skin 41 is bent inwardly from the connecting skin 41 to form a curled edge 5, the curled edge 5 can avoid the tooth petal head 422 being too sharp, so that when the socket is assembled, the tooth petal head 422 can be prevented from being inserted into the insulator 2 after being pulled by external force, thereby the bending deformation of the tooth petal 42 can be avoided to affect the normal use of the socket. Preferably, a first U-shaped notch 8 is arranged at the middle of the bent part of the curled edge 5, when the tooth petal head 422 is processed, the first U-shaped notch 8 is arranged first, thereby the tooth petal head 422 is conveniently bent.

[0025] Finally, although the above description has shown and described embodiments of the application, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made therein without departing from the principles and spirit of the application, and it is intended that the application be limited only by the scope of the claims as they are expressed and interpreted.
