[0023] According to another embodiment of the utility model, further comprising: auxiliary rear row contact points 12 are provided on the rear row auxiliary spring pieces 9, auxiliary front row contact points 13 are provided on the front row auxiliary spring pieces 8, the gaps between the front row auxiliary spring pieces 8 and the rear row auxiliary spring pieces 9 are of different lengths, and the contact points are divided into auxiliary rear row contact points 12 and auxiliary front row contact points 13. Such a design makes the contact more stable and has stronger mechanical resistance.

[0024] According to another embodiment of the utility model, the flattening design of the front row contact spring pieces 10 is to flatten the middle part of the spring pieces, and the flattening design of the rear row contact spring pieces 11 is to flatten the ends of the spring pieces, wherein a gap is left between the front row contact spring pieces 10 and the rear row contact spring pieces 11.

[0025] Specifically, the roots of the front contact springs 10 and the rear contact springs 11 are designed to be tear structures. Such a design can save materials, reduce the volume and improve the contact performance. The contact area of ​​the front contact springs 10 and the rear contact springs 11 is designed to be elliptical. The contact point ellipse of the contact area is formed by thinning the material, that is, flattening it. Such a design is to increase the contact interface, with the aim of improving the current carrying capacity.

[0026] According to another embodiment of the utility model, further comprising: the tails of the auxiliary spring piece 1 and the contact spring piece 2 are provided with a plurality of corresponding groups of through holes 14, and the through holes 14 are convenient for the rivets 7 to be inserted and fixed. Example

[0027] According to another embodiment of the utility model, further comprising: a transfer copper bar 15 is provided between the auxiliary spring piece 1 and the contact spring piece 2; the transfer copper bar 15 is fixed to the auxiliary spring piece 1 and the contact spring piece 2 by rivets 7; and a bending piece 16 is provided on one side of the tail.

[0028] According to another embodiment of the utility model, the bending piece 16 is integrally connected to the transfer copper bus 15 , a connecting hole 17 is provided in the middle, and a nut 18 is provided in the connecting hole 17 . Example

[0030] In the specific operation process, the male terminal is inserted to the right between the symmetrical contact springs 2 of the female terminal, and passes through the contact points of the front row contact springs 10 and the rear row contact springs 11 in turn. Among them, the laminated contact terminal is also called the female terminal, which is usually used at the plug end or the socket end of the connector. The upper and lower inner contact springs 2 of the laminated terminal are mainly used for current carrying and contact functions, and the upper and lower outer auxiliary springs 1 are mainly designed to provide positive force for the inner contact springs 2 to improve the terminal's resistance to impact and vibration. The contact springs 2 include the front row contact springs 10 and the rear row contact springs 11. This design is designed to reduce the insertion force of the male and female terminals. The principle is that the male and female terminals are in segmented contact during the matching process. The contact points of the front row contact springs 10 are in contact first and then the contact points of the rear row contact springs 11. In this way, the insertion force can be dispersed and not concentrated on one point.
