It allows current or signals to flow from one side to the other, thereby achieving the continuation of the electrical path. This device is a key component in the motor system, providing a separable connection interface that enables two sub-electronic systems to work together. The basic function of electronic connectors is to serve as a physical and electrical link between different circuits or electronic devices, ensuring that data and energy can be transmitted safely and reliably between systems. They play a vital role, like a bridge, closely connecting the electronic components on both sides to ensure the integrity and functionality of the entire system.
[0003] Electronic connectors consist of several parts, including a housing, terminals, and terminal seats. The terminals are the key parts of the connector. Generally, the terminal seats are provided with plug-in slots for accommodating the terminals, and these terminals are plugged into the plug-in slots. When the terminals are plugged into the plug-in slots, they often deviate and are exposed outside the plug-in slots, posing a risk of short circuit.

[0027] It should be noted that, in the absence of conflict, the embodiments and features in the embodiments of the present application can be combined with each other. The present utility model will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and in combination with the embodiments.
[0028] It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, all technical and scientific terms used in this application have the same meanings as commonly understood by ordinary technicians in the technical field to which this application belongs.
[0029] In the present invention, unless otherwise specified, the directional words used, such as "up, down, top, bottom", usually refer to the directions shown in the drawings, or to the components themselves in the vertical, perpendicular or gravity directions; similarly, for ease of understanding and description, "inside and outside" refer to the inside and outside relative to the outline of each component itself, but the above-mentioned directional words are not used to limit the present invention.
[0030] During the processing of the female port connector, a plug-in slot is usually provided on the terminal seat, and the terminal is inserted into the plug-in slot by plugging. When the terminal is plugged into the plug-in slot, it often deviates and is exposed outside the plug-in slot. During use, there is a risk of short circuit.
[0031] In order to solve the above technical problems in the prior art, an embodiment of the utility model provides a female port connector.
[0032] like Figure 1-4As shown, the female port connector includes a housing 1, a terminal 2 and a terminal seat 3.
[0033] Among them, the terminal 2 is usually formed by stamping a copper plate material. After stamping, the two ends of the terminal 2 are respectively connected with a material strip 4. The terminal seat 3 is formed on the terminal 2 by injection molding, and the terminal seat 3 will eventually be embedded and connected in the shell 1.
[0034] In the present invention, the terminal seat 3 is provided with a hollow groove 31 matched with the terminal 2 , and two ends of the terminal 2 are penetrated through two opposite side walls of the hollow groove 31 .
[0035] Specifically, the first end of the terminal passes through one of the two side walls and is connected to the material strip 4 ; the second end of the terminal passes through the other side wall and is integrally formed to form a lap joint 21 , and the lap joint 21 is connected to the material strip 4 .
[0036] In this way, the terminal seat 3 is formed on the terminal 2 by injection molding, and the terminal 2 can be embedded in the terminal seat 3. On the one hand, the manufacturing cost of the terminal seat 3 can be reduced, and on the other hand, the two opposite side walls of the terminal seat hollow groove 31 are injection molded at the two ends of the terminal 2, so that the terminal 2 can be limited to the appropriate position in the terminal seat 3 and will not move relative to the terminal seat 3, thereby preventing the terminal 2 from running out of the terminal seat 3.
[0037] It should be noted that, in the present invention, preferably, the material forming the terminal seat 3 by injection molding is an insulator, so that the terminals arranged on the terminal seat 3 are isolated from each other and are not electrically connected to each other.
[0038] Furthermore, during the injection molding process, a limiting portion 311 is formed on the inner side of the side wall of the hollow groove 31, and the limiting portion 311 is used to limit the movement of the terminal 2 relative to the groove wall of the hollow groove 31. Under the premise that both ends of the terminal are respectively fixed to the two side walls of the hollow groove 31, the limiting portion 311 can further limit the position of the terminal 2 relative to the terminal seat 3 to prevent the two from moving relative to each other.
[0039] refer to Figure 3 As shown, when the terminal seat 3 is connected to the housing 1, the terminal seat 3 has a board surface 32 close to the first end in the axial direction of the terminal 2, and the board surface 32 is used to abut against the connection surface of the device when the female port connector is connected to the user's device.
[0040] Furthermore, the housing 1 has connecting parts 13 located on both sides of the board surface 32 in the lateral direction, the connecting parts 13 protrude out of the board surface 32, and leakage grooves 321 are arranged on both sides of the board surface 32, and the leakage grooves 321 are open in the direction away from the terminal seat 3 and in the direction toward the connecting part 13 on the corresponding side. The function of the leakage grooves 321 is to prevent the molten metal generated by welding from leaking out from the leakage grooves 321 when the female port connector is connected to the user's device, thereby preventing the molten metal from falling into the female port connector, thereby causing a short circuit.
[0041] Generally speaking, the terminal base 3 is connected to the housing 1 by riveting.
[0042] In certain embodiments, reference Figure 4 As shown, a buckle groove 33 is provided on the side wall of the terminal seat 3, and an undercut 11 matching the buckle groove 33 is provided on the housing 1, and the undercut 11 is snapped into the buckle groove 33. Such a setting can be more conducive to fixing the housing 1 relative to the terminal seat 3 to avoid displacement between the two.
[0043] Preferably, reference Figure 2 As best shown, the buckle groove 33 is provided in two, and the two buckle grooves 33 are symmetrically arranged on the two side walls of the terminal seat 3 in the lateral direction.
[0044] In this embodiment, the buckle groove 33 is formed integrally during the injection molding of the terminal seat 3. Such a configuration helps to improve the manufacturing efficiency.
[0045] Correspondingly, the number of the undercuts 11 is set to two, and each undercut 11 is set corresponding to one buckle groove 33. In this way, the undercuts 11 and the buckle grooves 33 are arranged to engage with each other on both sides of the terminal base 3 in the lateral direction, which can achieve a better engagement effect.
[0046] It can be understood that in the present invention, the two ends of the terminal 2 are respectively connected to the material strip 4. The purpose of this arrangement is to enable the terminal 2 to be fixed by the material strip 4 during the injection molding process of the terminal seat, so that the terminal 2 can be pre-positioned to the appropriate position in the terminal seat 3.
[0047] Preferably, the first end is detachably connected to the material strip 4 .
[0048] Correspondingly, the lap joint 21 and the material strip 4 can be detachably connected. With such arrangement, after the terminal base 3 is injection molded, the material strip 4 at both ends of the terminal 2 can be easily removed.
[0049] Optionally, after the terminal seat 3 is engaged and connected in the housing 1 , the material strip 4 is removed by cutting.
[0050] In summary, the embodiments of the present invention achieve the following technical effects:
[0051] The terminal seat 3 is formed on the terminal 2 by injection molding, and the terminal 2 can be embedded in the terminal seat 3. On the one hand, the manufacturing cost of the terminal seat 3 can be reduced, and on the other hand, the two opposite side walls of the terminal seat hollow groove 31 are injection molded at the two ends of the terminal 2, so that the terminal 2 can be limited to the appropriate position in the terminal seat 3 and will not move relative to the terminal seat 3, so that the female seat port connector has stable quality.
