[0009] As a preferred solution of the utility model, the middle part of the edge of the placement part is turned downward to form a welding foot part, which can be welded to the circuit substrate, greatly enhancing the firmness and reliability of the connection.

[0010] As a preferred solution of the utility model, the number of the welding feet is two sides, which are symmetrically located in the middle of the two side edges of the placement part, further enhancing the firmness and reliability of the connection.

[0011] As a preferred solution of the utility model, the upper ends of the two arc-shaped clamping parts are symmetrically bent to form a flared part, which facilitates the quick insertion of the circular ring into the arc-shaped clamping part, and the assembly is simple and convenient.

[0020] Example: See Figures 1 to 4 The present embodiment provides a 360-degree conductive connector, which includes a rotating shaft 1, a ring 2, a connecting spring 3 and a circuit substrate 4. The number of the ring 2 and the connecting spring 3 is consistent, so that each ring 2 can be matched with the connecting spring 3 on the circuit substrate 4.

[0021] In this embodiment, the number of the circular rings 2 and the number of the connecting spring pieces 3 are both three. In other embodiments, the number of the circular rings 2 and the number of the connecting spring pieces 3 may also be two, four or more.

[0022] The three circular rings 2 are sleeved on the rotating shaft 1 at intervals. The circular rings 2 are integrally formed with axial end feet 21 extending along the axial direction of the rotating shaft 1. Preferably, the ends of the axial end feet 21 extend out of the end face of the rotating shaft 1 to facilitate welding with the wires. During production, a round copper tube is used to laser cut out the circular rings 2 and the axial end feet 21, and then placed in a bending mold for bending and forming. The required number of circular rings 2 is selected and placed in an injection mold. The axial end feet 21 are placed at intervals to form an insulating setting structure to avoid short circuits, and then injection molding is performed to obtain the rotating shaft 1 after solidification.

[0023] The three connecting springs 3 are arranged on the circuit substrate 4 at intervals corresponding to the circular ring 2. Specifically, the distance between the lower parts of the two ends of the connecting spring 3 is gradually widened to form a placement portion 31. The bottom surface of the placement portion 31 is a plane, which provides a stable structural support for the connecting spring 3 and enhances the stability of the connection. The middle part of the edge of the placement portion 31 is turned down to form a welding foot 32. Preferably, the number of the welding foot 32 is two sides, which are symmetrically located at the middle position of the two side edges of the placement portion 31, further enhancing the firmness and reliability of the connection. A welding hole 41 adapted to the welding foot 32 is provided on the circuit substrate 4. The welding foot 32 extends into the welding hole 41 and is welded, which is firmly installed and has high reliability.

[0024] The two ends of the connecting spring 3 are symmetrically bent upward to form two arc-shaped clamping parts 33 that match the shape of the ring 2. For easy assembly, the upper ends of the two arc-shaped clamping parts 33 are symmetrically bent to form flared parts 34, which facilitates the quick insertion of the ring 2 into the arc-shaped clamping parts 33, making assembly simple and convenient.

[0025] When assembling, refer to Figure 5 The flared portion 34 can conveniently insert the convenient ring 2 into the arc-shaped clamping portion 33 for assembly, and the two arc-shaped clamping portions 33 match the shape of the ring 2 well, can be tightly clamped on the ring 2, have good electrical contact effect, and can still maintain normal and stable current transmission during the 360-degree rotation process, effectively ensuring the stability of the electrical connection, high reliability, and long service life.

[0026] According to the disclosure and teaching of the above specification, technicians in the field to which the utility model belongs can also change and modify the above implementation. Therefore, the utility model is not limited to the specific implementations disclosed and described above, and some modifications and changes to the utility model should also fall within the scope of protection of the claims of the utility model. In addition, although some specific terms are used in this specification, these terms are only for convenience of explanation and do not constitute any limitation to the utility model. As described in the above embodiments of the utility model, connectors of other structures obtained by using the same or similar structures are all within the scope of protection of the utility model.
