The arc frame 6 is used to support and position and guide the pull rod 12.

[0034] A fixing assembly, the fixing assembly includes a guide slot 7 provided on the arc frame 6, a curved rod 8 is slidably connected in the guide slot 7, positioning grooves 9 are provided on two symmetrical sides of the curved rod 8, one end of the curved rod 8 is fixedly connected to a push frame 10, one side of the push frame 10 is fixedly connected to an external frame 11, a pull rod 12 is provided at the top of the curved rod 8, and a first spring 13 is provided between the pull rod 12 and the arc frame 6;

[0035] It should be noted that the positioning groove 9 cooperates with the guide slot 7 to facilitate the limited sliding of the bending rod 8. The push frame 10 can be pushed by the bending rod 8 in the guide slot 7 to drive the wire connector to move. The external frame 11 is used to limit the outside of the wire connector to avoid poor contact due to its tendency to tilt. The pull rod 12 is used to facilitate the movement of the bending rod 8. The first spring 13 can always provide an extrusion force on the bending rod 8, so that it can always generate a thrust on the wire connector through the push frame 10 to avoid poor contact between the connector and the interface 2. It should be noted that when the bending frame 5 rotates, the pull rod 12 can be pressed to drive the insertion rod 15 to move in the guide slot 7 to drive the push frame 10 and The external frame 11 is retracted until the bending frame 5 rotates to the extreme position. When the wire connector needs to be fixed, the restriction on the pull rod 12 is released to reset it under the elastic force of the first spring 13.
