The clamping member 310 is configured to rotate relative to one of the plug body 110 and the terminal body 210 when the first plugging portion 121 is plugged with the second plugging portion 221, so that the second clamping portion 311 is engaged with or released from the first clamping portion 211.

[0061] In this embodiment, the plug body 110 is used to protect, fix, insulate, etc. the first electrical connector 120, and it can be a shell structure of plastic, rubber, silicone, etc. The first electrical connector 120 is used to be electrically connected to the first connection end, and it can be a columnar, plate-shaped, block-shaped, etc. structure made of metal material, and inserted into the plug body 110. The first electrical connector 120 can be electrically connected to the first connection end through a conductor such as a wire or a conductive sheet. Among them, the first electrical connector 120 also has a first plug-in portion 121, such as a pin, a jack, etc.

[0062] The terminal body 210 is used to protect, fix, insulate, etc. the second electrical connector 220, and it can also be a shell structure of plastic, rubber, silicone, etc. The second electrical connector 220 is used to be electrically connected to the second connection end, and it can also be a columnar, plate-shaped, block-shaped structure made of metal material, and inserted into the terminal body 210. The second electrical connector 220 can also be electrically connected to the second connection end through a conductor such as a wire or a conductive sheet. Among them, the second electrical connector 220 also has a second plug-in portion 221 that matches the first plug-in portion 121, and the second plug-in portion 221 is such as a pin, a socket, etc., so that the first plug-in portion 121 can be plugged or unplugged with the second plug-in portion 221.

[0063] It should be noted that the first connection end may be a connection end on a relay, and the second connection end may be a connection end on a relay protection tester. Of course, the first connection end may be a connection end on a relay protection tester, and the second connection end may be a connection end on a relay. In addition, the first plug-in portion 121 and the second plug-in portion 221 are electrically connected by plugging, which may also be replaced by other types of plug-in structures, such as matching protrusion and groove structures, etc., according to actual needs.

[0064] The clamping member 310 is used to lock or unlock the plug and the terminal, and can be in the form of a plate, block, sheet, or other structure. One of the plug body 110 and the terminal body 210 can be rotatably connected to the clamping member 310 through a rotating structure such as a pin shaft, and the other has a first clamping portion 211, such as a clamping protrusion or a clamping groove, etc. The clamping member 310 has a second clamping portion 311 that matches the first clamping portion 211, such as a matching clamping groove or a clamping protrusion, etc., on one side facing the first clamping portion 211. When the clamping member 310 rotates, the second clamping portion 311 can be rotated in a direction close to or away from the first clamping portion 211.

[0065] Specifically, if Figure 1-Figure 4 As shown, when the first plug-in portion 121 is plugged with the second plug-in portion 221, the clamping member 310 rotates relative to one of the plug body 110 and the terminal body 210, so that the second clamping portion 311 rotates toward the direction close to the first clamping portion 211 and is clamped with the first clamping portion 211, thereby limiting the relative movement of the plug body 110 and the terminal body 210, locking them to prevent them from loosening, so as to ensure the normal conduct of the test. Or the second clamping portion 311 rotates toward the direction away from the first clamping portion 211 and is released from the first clamping portion 211, so that the first plug-in portion 121 and the second plug-in portion 221 are released from plugging.

[0066] Compared with the structure without limit between the plug and the terminal, the electrical connector provided in this embodiment locks the plug and the terminal by means of a clamping member to prevent the two from loosening, thereby ensuring the normal conduct of the test, and is simple to operate and easy to use.

[0067] It can be understood that the electrical connector provided by the utility model includes a plug assembly 100, a terminal assembly 200 and a snap-on assembly 300. The plug assembly 100 includes a plug body 110 and a first electrical connector 120 connected to the plug body 110, the first electrical connector 120 is electrically connected to the first connection end, and the first electrical connector 120 has a first plug-in portion 121. The terminal assembly 200 includes a terminal body 210 and a second electrical connector 220 connected to the terminal body 210, the second electrical connector 220 is electrically connected to the second connection end, and the second electrical connector 220 has a second plug-in portion 221 that matches the first plug-in portion 121. The first plug-in portion 121 is plugged or unplugged with the second plug-in portion 221 to achieve electrical connection or disconnection between the first connection end and the second connection end. The clamping assembly 300 includes a clamping member 310, one of the plug body 110 and the terminal body 210 is connected to the clamping member 310, the other has a first clamping portion 211, and the clamping member 310 has a second clamping portion 311 matching the first clamping portion 211. The clamping member 310 is configured such that when the first plug-in portion 121 is plugged with the second plug-in portion 221, the clamping member 310 rotates relative to one of the plug body 110 and the terminal body 210 to engage or release the second clamping portion 311 with the first clamping portion 211, and the plug and the terminal are locked by the clamping member 310 to prevent the two from being loosened, so as to ensure the normal conduct of the test.

[0068] In a possible design, the clamping assembly 300 further includes an elastic member 320, one side of the elastic member 320 is connected to the clamping member 310, and the other side of the elastic member 320 is connected to one of the plug body 110 and the terminal body 210. When the first plug-in portion 121 is plugged with the second plug-in portion 221, the elastic member 320 causes the second clamping portion 311 to be elastically pressed against the first clamping portion 211.

[0069] Specifically, the elastic member 320 is used to elastically press the second clamping portion 311 and the first clamping portion 211, and can be a spring, such as a compression spring, a tension spring, a torsion spring, etc., or an elastic member such as a spring sheet. Figure 2-Figure 3 As shown, when the clamping member 310 is connected to the plug body 110, the elastic member 320 is connected to the clamping member 310 and the plug body 110 respectively, so that the second clamping portion 311 and the first clamping portion 211 are elastically pressed to avoid free loosening.

[0070] When the clamping member 310 is connected to the terminal body 210, which is not shown in the figure, the elastic member 320 is connected to the clamping member 310 and the terminal body 210 respectively, and the second clamping portion 311 and the first clamping portion 211 are elastically pressed to avoid free loosening. The specific type and connection position of the elastic member 320 can be determined according to actual needs and are not specifically limited in this embodiment.

[0071] Furthermore, the elastic member 320 has a first elastic portion 321 and a second elastic portion 322 , one of which is connected to the snap-in member 310 , and the other is connected together with the snap-in member 310 to one of the plug body 110 and the terminal body 210 .

[0072] The first elastic portion 321 and the second elastic portion 322 on the elastic member 320 may be two elastic arms arranged in a substantially V-shape. Figure 2-Figure 3 As shown, when the clamping member 310 is connected to the plug body 110 , one of the two elastic arms abuts against the clamping member 310 , and the other abuts against the plug body 110 , and the two elastic arms provide a clamping elastic force to the clamping member 310 .

[0073] When the clamping member 310 is connected to the terminal body 210, (not shown in the figure), one of the two elastic arms abuts against the clamping member 310, and the other abuts against the terminal body 210, and the two elastic arms can also provide a clamping elastic force for the clamping member 310. This arrangement is convenient for manufacturing and installation.

[0074] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the elastic member 320 also has a rebound portion 323 , which is connected to the first elastic portion 321 and the second elastic portion 322 , respectively. The rebound portion 323 is used for the first elastic portion 321 and the second elastic portion 322 to maintain a predetermined rebound force.

[0075] Specifically, continue as Figure 2 , Figure 3 As shown, the rebound portion 323 is roughly C-shaped, and the first elastic portion 321 and the second elastic portion 322 are correspondingly connected to the two ends of the C-shaped opening of the rebound portion 323. In this way, under the action of the rebound portion 323, the first elastic portion 321 and the second elastic portion 322 maintain good rebound force, so that the first elastic portion 321 and the second elastic portion 322 can rebound better after being compressed or pulled.

[0076] It should be noted that a space for the springback portion 323 to move should be reserved between the clamping member 310 and the plug body 110, or between the clamping member 310 and the terminal body 210, such as a groove, a cavity, etc., to avoid interference with the springback portion 323. Of course, the springback portion 323 can also be replaced by other structures with a springback function, which is not specifically limited in this embodiment.

[0077] Furthermore, in this embodiment, at least one of the first elastic portion 321 and the second elastic portion 322 has a first limiting portion 301, and at least one of the clamping member 310, the plug body 110, and the terminal body 210 has a second limiting portion 101 that matches the first limiting portion 301. The second limiting portion 101 is connected to the first limiting portion 301 to limit the relative movement between the clamping member 310 and the connected plug body 110 or the terminal body 210.

[0078] For example, Figure 2 As shown, the first limiting portion 301 is a limiting hole, the first elastic portion 321 and the second elastic portion 322 are both provided with limiting holes, and the second limiting portion 101 is a limiting column matching the limiting hole. When the clamping member 310 is connected to the plug body 110, the clamping member 310 and the plug body 110 are both provided with limiting columns, and the two limiting columns correspond to and are connected with the two limiting holes one by one to limit the relative movement between the clamping member 310 and the plug body 110.

[0079] When the clamping member 310 is connected to the terminal body 210 , as not shown in the figure, limiting columns are provided on the clamping member 310 and the terminal body 210 , and two limiting columns correspond to and are connected with two limiting holes one by one to limit the relative movement between the clamping member 310 and the terminal body 210 .

[0080] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the clamping member 310 further comprises a first connection portion 312 and a pressing portion 313, wherein the first connection portion 312 is located between the second clamping portion 311 and the pressing portion 313. The plug body 110 comprises a second connection portion 111 matching the first connection portion 312, and the first connection portion 312 is rotatably connected to the second connection portion 111.

[0081] Specifically, Figure 2-Figure 3 As shown, one of the first connection part 312 and the second connection part 111 is a connection hole, and the other is a pin shaft matching the connection hole, and the pin shaft is rotatably connected to the connection hole. Moreover, the clamping member 310 is driven to rotate by the pressing part 313, so that the clamping member 310 is easy to operate.

[0082] Of course, the first connection portion 312 and the second connection portion 111 may also be replaced by other types of rotating structures, which are not specifically limited in this embodiment.

[0083] Optionally, in this embodiment, the pressing portion 313 has an anti-slip layer. Figure 1 , Figure 3 As shown, the anti-skid layer can be anti-skid protrusions, anti-skid patterns, anti-skid teeth, etc., and any structure that can play an anti-skid role can be used, and is not specifically limited in this embodiment.

[0084] In order to facilitate the plugging of the first plug-in portion 121 and the second plug-in portion 221, the clamping member 310 does not interfere with the plug body 110 or the terminal body 210, in this embodiment, the clamping member 310 and at least one of the plug body 110 or the terminal body 210 that are separated from each other have a guide surface 302 facing the other. When one of the first plug-in portion 121 and the second plug-in portion 221 moves toward the other, the clamping member 310 abuts against the plug body 110 or the terminal body 210 that are separated from each other through the guide surface 302, so that the second clamping portion 311 rotates in a direction away from the first clamping portion 211.

[0085] In one example, Figure 2 As shown, when the clip 310 is connected to the plug body 110, the side of the clip 310 facing the terminal body 210 has a guide surface 302, and correspondingly, the side of the terminal body 210 facing the clip 310 also has a guide surface 302. In this way, when one of the first plug-in portion 121 and the second plug-in portion 221 moves toward the other, under the action of the two guide surfaces 302, the second clip 311 is pushed away from the first clip 211 until the first plug-in portion 121 and the second plug-in portion 221 are fully plugged in, and the second clip 311 is plugged into the first clip 211.

[0086] In another example, when the clamping member 310 is connected to the terminal body 210, which is not shown in the figure, the clamping member 310 has a guide surface 302 on one side facing the plug body 110, and correspondingly, the plug body 110 also has a guide surface 302 on one side facing the clamping member 310. In this way, when one of the first plug-in portion 121 and the second plug-in portion 221 moves toward the other, under the action of the two guide surfaces 302, the second clamping portion 311 is pushed away from the first clamping portion 211 until the first plug-in portion 121 and the second plug-in portion 221 are fully plugged together, and the second clamping portion 311 is plugged together with the first clamping portion 211.

[0087] In order to facilitate the pressing operation of the clamping assembly 300, in this embodiment, there are two clamping assemblies 300, and the two clamping assemblies 300 are relatively arranged on both sides of one of the plug body 110 and the terminal body 210. There are two first clamping portions 211, and the two first clamping portions 211 are relatively arranged on both sides of the other of the plug body 110 and the terminal body 210, and the second clamping portions 311 on the two clamping members 310 correspond to the two first clamping portions 211 one by one.

[0088] Specifically, Figure 2 , Figure 3 As shown, on the one hand, the clamping is performed by two clamping assemblies 300, and the force is more balanced. On the other hand, it is convenient to release the clamping operation of the clamping assembly 300 by hand.
