[0027] Reference below Figure 1 and Figure 2 A protective cover 1 of a power switch according to an embodiment of the utility model is described. The protective cover 1 of the power switch is applied in a vehicle.

[0028] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the protective cover 1 of the power switch according to the utility model includes: a protective body 2 and a plurality of terminal covers 3, the protective body 2 is formed with a accommodating cavity, the accommodating cavity is used to accommodate the power switch 110 and a plurality of terminals 120 connected to the power switch 110, the plurality of terminal covers 3 are respectively connected to the protective body 2, the plurality of terminal covers 3 are formed with channels for the terminals 120 to pass through, and the channels are connected to the accommodating cavity.

[0029] It can be understood that the protection body 2 and the plurality of terminal sleeves 3 constitute the main structure of the protection sleeve 1 of the power switch, and a receiving cavity is formed inside the protection body 2. This arrangement allows the power switch 110 and the plurality of terminals 120 connected to the power switch 110 to be in the receiving cavity, so that the protection body 2 can protect the non-insulated part of the power switch 110 and the plurality of terminals 120 connected to the power switch 110, thereby preventing the non-insulated part of the power switch 110 and the plurality of terminals 120 connected to the power switch 110 from short-circuiting risks and extending their service life. The plurality of terminal sleeves 3 are connected to the protection body 2. The outer side of the protective body 2, and the channel formed by the plurality of terminal sleeves 3 is connected to the accommodating cavity, so that the protective body 2 and the plurality of terminal sleeves 3 are conveniently arranged on the non-insulated part of the power switch 110, and the plurality of terminals 120 connected to the power switch 110 are sleeved one by one with the plurality of terminal sleeves 3. Such an arrangement enables the terminal 120 sleeve to protect the terminal 120 connected to the power switch 110, and also does not affect the connection layout of the terminal 120 and the power switch 110, thereby avoiding the risk of short circuit between the non-insulated part of the power switch 110 and the terminal 120, and further improving the safety performance of the vehicle. For example, the material of the protective body 2 is a protective rubber sleeve of EPDM rubber, thereby preventing the risk of short circuit between the non-insulated part of the power switch 110 and the plurality of terminals 120 connected to the power switch 110.

[0030] Therefore, by forming an accommodating cavity in the protective body 2, the power switch 110 and multiple terminals 120 connected to the power switch 110 can be placed in the accommodating cavity, and multiple terminal sleeves 3 are arranged on the protective body 2, and a part of the terminal 120 can be placed in the terminal 120 sleeve. This arrangement allows the protective body 2 and the terminal 120 sleeve to protect the power switch 110 and multiple terminals 120, thereby preventing the risk of short circuit at the terminal 120 of the power switch 110, and the protective sleeve 1 of the power switch can prevent the non-insulated part of the power switch 110 from contacting dust, water, metal foreign matter, etc. of the terminal 120, thereby improving the safety performance of the vehicle.

[0031] Among them, Figure 2 As shown, the protective body 2 is formed with a through hole 21, which is communicated with the accommodating cavity, and the through hole 21 is used for the power switch 110 to pass through. That is to say, the through hole 21 is formed on the front side of the protective body 2, and the through hole 21 is communicated with the accommodating cavity. This arrangement allows the through hole 21 to avoid the power switch 110, so that the non-insulating part of the power switch 110 can be placed in the accommodating cavity, and the insulating part of the power switch 110 extends out of the through hole 21. This arrangement facilitates the operation of the power switch 110, and also allows the protective body 2 to protect the non-insulating part of the power switch 110, thereby improving the safety performance of the vehicle.

[0032] In addition, if Figure 2 As shown, the plurality of terminal sleeves 3 include: a first terminal sleeve 31 and a second terminal sleeve 32, and the through hole 21, the first terminal sleeve 31 and the second terminal sleeve 32 are respectively arranged on different side walls of the protective body 2. It can be understood that the first terminal sleeve 31 and the second terminal sleeve 32 constitute the main structure of the plurality of terminal sleeves 3, the through hole 21 is located at the front side of the protective body 2, so as to facilitate the insulation part of the power switch 110, the first terminal sleeve 31 is arranged at the rear side of the protective body 2, so that the positive terminal 120 in the power switch 110 can be placed in the first terminal sleeve 31, and the positive terminal 120 extends from the first terminal sleeve 31, and the second terminal sleeve 32 is arranged on the left side and the lower side of the protective body 2, so that the wiring harness terminal 120 of the power switch 110 can be placed in the second terminal sleeve 32, and the wiring harness terminal 120 extends from the second terminal sleeve 32, so that the first terminal sleeve 31 and the second terminal sleeve 32 can protect different terminals 120.

[0033] Among them, Figure 2 As shown, there are two first terminal sleeves 31, and the two first terminal sleeves 31 are arranged on the same side wall of the protective body 2; there are two second terminal sleeves 32, and the two second terminal sleeves 32 are arranged on different side walls of the protective body 2. That is to say, the two first terminal sleeves 31 are arranged at intervals on the rear side of the protective body 2, so that the inflow end and the outflow end of the positive terminal 120 can be placed in the two first terminal sleeves 31 respectively, and then the two first terminal sleeves 31 can protect the inflow end and the outflow end of the positive terminal 120, and the two second terminal sleeves 32 are respectively located on the left and lower sides of the protective body 2. Such an arrangement can make the wiring harness terminal 120 of the power switch 110 be placed in the second protective sleeves on the left and lower sides respectively, so that the wiring harness direction of the power switch 110 can be constrained, and then the reliability of the power switch 110 can be improved and the wiring harness cost can be reduced.

[0034] In addition, if Figure 2As shown, the protective body 2 has a first side wall 22, a second side wall 23 and a plurality of third side walls 24, the first side wall 22 and the second side wall 23 are located on opposite sides of the accommodating cavity, the plurality of third side walls 24 are respectively connected to the first side wall 22 and the second side wall 23 and are sequentially connected in the circumferential direction of the first side wall 22, the first terminal sleeve 31 is arranged on the first side wall 22, the through hole 21 is formed on the second side wall 23, and the second terminal sleeve 32 is arranged on the third side wall 24. It can be understood that the first side wall 22 is located on the rear side of the protective body 2, the second side wall 23 is located on the front side of the protective body 2, and the first side wall 22 and the second side wall 23 are arranged opposite to each other, the third side wall 24 is located on the left and right sides of the protective body 2, and the rear end of the third side wall 24 is connected to the first side wall 22, so that the first side wall 22, the second side wall 23 and multiple third side walls 24 can form a accommodating cavity, the first terminal sleeve 31 extends backward relative to the first side wall 22, so that it is convenient for the positive terminal 120 to pass through the first terminal sleeve 31 and extend backward, the second side wall 23 forms a through hole 21, so that the non-insulating part of the power switch 110 is placed in the accommodating cavity, and the insulating part extends forward from the through hole 21, the second terminal sleeve 32 extends to the left and downward relative to the third side wall 24, so that it is convenient for the wiring harness of the power switch 110 to pass through the second terminal sleeve 32 and extend, so as to facilitate the protective body 2 to protect the non-insulating part and multiple terminals 120 of the power switch 110.

[0035] In particular, if Figure 2 As shown, the protective body 2 is formed with a cutout 25, and the cutout 25 extends from one side edge of the through hole 21 to an end of the second terminal sleeve 32 away from the protective body 2. That is to say, the cutout 25 is provided on the protective body 2, and the cutout 25 extends along the left second terminal sleeve 32 to the second side wall 23, and extends along the lower second terminal sleeve 32 to the second side wall 23. This arrangement facilitates the protective body 2 to be opened along the direction of the cutout 25 during assembly, and then the non-insulated part of the power switch 110 and the multiple terminals 120 are protected by the characteristics of the rubber material, thereby improving the safety performance of the vehicle.

[0036] In addition, Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the protective cover 1 of the power switch is integrally formed, which is convenient for installation and removal of the protective cover 1 of the power switch, thereby improving the reliability and protective performance of the protective cover 1 of the power switch.

[0037] like Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, the power switch assembly 100 according to the embodiment of the utility model includes: a power switch 110, a plurality of terminals 120, a protective cover 1 of the power switch of the above embodiment and a fixing member 130, the plurality of terminals 120 are electrically connected to the power switch 110 respectively; the plurality of terminals 120 are electrically connected to the power switch 110 respectively, the power switch 110 and the plurality of terminals 120 are arranged in an accommodating cavity, the plurality of terminals 120 correspond one by one to the plurality of terminal covers 3, and the fixing member 130 is arranged on at least a portion of the terminal 120 covers to fix at least a portion of the terminal 120 covers and the corresponding terminals 120.

[0038] It can be understood that the power switch 110, multiple terminals 120, the protective cover 1 of the power switch and the fixing member 130 constitute the main structure of the power switch assembly 100.

The non-insulating part of the power switch 110 and the multiple terminals 120 are located in the accommodating cavity. The multiple terminal covers 3 are mounted on the multiple terminals 120 one by one, so that the protective body 2 can protect the non-insulating part of the power switch 110 and the multiple terminals 120, thereby reducing the safety gap of the wiring harness of the power switch 110 and shortening the size of the wiring harness of the power switch 110. The fixing member 130 is located on the second terminal cover 32. Such a setting can reduce the gap at the incision 25, thereby preventing the wiring harness terminal 120 of the power switch 110 from contacting dust, water, metal foreign matter, etc., thereby improving the safety performance of the vehicle.

[0039] Optionally, the fixing 130 is a cable tie or a wire clamp, which facilitates the installation and removal of the fixing 130 and prevents the wiring harness terminal 120 of the power switch 110 from contacting dust, water, metal foreign objects, etc., thereby improving the safety performance of the vehicle.
