The sliding groove 803 and the U-shaped seat 804 are arranged opposite to each other, one at the bottom and the other just above.

[0030] When in use, tear off the release paper layer 7 on the bottom surface of the flexible board body 1, and then stick the flexible board body 1 to the bonding surface of the electrical appliance through the adhesive layer 6. The flexible board body 1 can be bent freely so as to better adapt to the shape of the bonding surface of the electrical appliance. Then, the socket 8 of the flexible circuit board is plugged into the plug 9 of the electrical appliance to power on. At this time, the electric heating copper film 3 generates heat. The socket 8 and the plug 9 are provided with corresponding connection structures. When the socket 8 and the plug 9 of the electrical appliance are plugged and fixed, the plug 9 is first aligned with the plug hole 801 in the hollow socket body 800, and the rectangular convex plate 900 at the bottom of the plug 9 is aligned with the sliding groove 803 on the socket 8.
