[0018] The concept, specific structure and technical effects of the utility model will be further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings to fully understand the purpose, characteristics and effects of the utility model.

[0019] It should be noted that in the description of the present invention, the terms "upper", "lower", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "inner", "outer" and the like indicating directions or positional relationships are based on the directions or positional relationships shown in the drawings, which are only for the convenience of description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element must have a specific orientation, be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore cannot be understood as a limitation on the present invention. In addition, the terms "first" and "second" are used for descriptive purposes only, and cannot be understood as indicating or implying relative importance.

[0020] See also Figures 1 to 5 As shown, it is a schematic diagram of a preferred embodiment of the utility model. The utility model is related to a terminal that is easy to disassemble and replace, which includes a conductor 1, the conductor 1 has a plug-in terminal 11 at the front end, a wiring terminal 12 at the rear end, and a mounting shaft section 13 that extends straightly backward from the plug-in terminal and connects to the wiring terminal. The outer periphery of the mounting shaft section 13 is provided with a raised arc-shaped elastic portion 14 and a limit platform 15; the limit platform 15 is close to the wiring terminal 12 and is used for assembly limit, which is convenient for terminal assembly positioning. The arc-shaped elastic portion 14 is close to the plug-in terminal 11 and is distributed in an annular interval on the outer periphery of the mounting shaft section 13, so that multiple points work together, increase the clamping force, and improve the plug-in and pull-out usability of the connector. The arc-shaped elastic portion 14 has a first slope 141 facing the plug-in terminal 11 and a second slope 142 facing away from the plug-in terminal 11. The axial length of the first slope 141 is greater than the axial length of the second slope 142, and the angle of the bevel of the first slope 141 is smaller than the angle of the bevel of the second slope 142. And a matching insulating body 2, the insulating body 2 is provided with a terminal hole 21 adapted for implanting and assembling the conductor 1, and the terminal hole 21 is provided with a first step 211 and a second step 212 facing each other. After the conductor 1 is implanted into the terminal hole 21, the first step 211 is used to support and prevent the conductor 1 from falling off with the second slope 142 of the arc-shaped elastic part 14; the second step 212 is used to support and limit the position of the limit platform 15 to limit the implantation depth of the conductor 1.

[0021] During assembly, the cable 5 is first connected to the terminal 12 of the conductor 1 by welding or riveting. Figure 1 , 2As shown in Figure 3, the cable 5 is welded to the terminal 12 of the conductor 1. The terminal 12 of the conductor 1 is designed in the form of a tray, which is convenient for overlapping the cable 5 and tinning and welding, thereby increasing the connection firmness and conductivity. Subsequently, the conductor 1 is implanted into the terminal hole 21 of the insulating body 2. During the implantation process, the arc-shaped elastic part 14 is squeezed and contracted. When assembled in place, the arc-shaped elastic part 14 is naturally popped open after being freed from squeezing, thereby realizing the second slope 142 and the first step 211 to support and prevent the top from falling off. At the same time, the second step 212 is used to support and limit with the limit platform 15 to form front and rear restrictions to complete the assembly. At the same time, the structure of the arc-shaped elastic part 14 is effectively designed, so that the axial length of the first slope 141 is greater than the axial length of the second slope 142, and the angle of the bevel of the first slope 141 is smaller than the angle of the bevel of the second slope 142. In this way, the conductor assembly insertion force is less than the pull-out force, that is, the conductor implantation and assembly are easy, but it has a strong anti-falling performance to ensure the implementation of terminal assembly. When disassembly is required, the arc-shaped elastic part only needs to be squeezed hard to make the second slope and the first step of the terminal hole withdraw from the support top, and the conductor can be pulled out for maintenance or replacement.

[0022] Figure 3 As shown, in this embodiment, the terminal hole 21 passes through the front and rear ends of the insulating body 2 and is in the form of a straight hole; the conductor 1 is implanted into the terminal hole 21 from the rear end of the insulating body 2, the plug-in end 11 of the conductor 1 is hidden in the terminal hole 21, and the wiring end 12 of the conductor 1 is exposed outside the rear end of the insulating body 2; a widened countersunk hole 22 is provided on the outer periphery of the front end of the terminal hole 21, the widened countersunk hole 22 extends along the axial direction of the terminal hole 21 and stops at the inside of the insulating body 2, the first step 211 is the inner bottom of the widened countersunk hole 22, the structure is simple, and it is easy to make. With this design, when it is necessary to withdraw the conductor 1, a tool (such as a small ejector pin) is used to press hard in the direction of withdrawing the conductor 1, and the arc-shaped elastic part 14 is squeezed and then contracts, and then the conductor 1 can be withdrawn from the terminal hole, which is easy to operate.

[0023] Figure 2 , 3 As shown in Figures 4 and 5, in this embodiment, the conductor 1 is a solid cylindrical body, which meets the corresponding rigidity and conduction requirements; the spring clip 3 is sleeved on the outer periphery of the mounting shaft section 13, and the arc-shaped elastic portion 14 is a corrugated spring piece constructed by the local protrusion of the spring clip 3. Specifically, the spring clip 3 is rolled up by a sheet and partially cut off in the middle section, and the remaining connecting piece is bent and raised to construct the arc-shaped elastic portion 14, and the required elasticity and the structural features of the first slope 141 and the second slope 142 with distinction are obtained, and the structure is simple and easy to manufacture. Figure 2 , 3As shown in , 4 and 5, after the spring clip tube 3 is sleeved, the front and rear ends are supported by the preset shoulders on the mounting shaft section 13, so as to obtain axial limit, and the assembly is simple and the conductor 1 is also removable. In this embodiment, the plug-in end 11 of the conductor 1 is provided with an axially concave plug hole 111, and a claw spring 4 is embedded in the plug hole 111, which is convenient for plugging and conducting with an external connection element and increasing contact conductivity.

[0024] The terminal of the utility model is detachable and replaceable, and can be used in scenarios where the product has a long plug-in life and is in a harsh application environment and requires high maintenance frequency.

[0025] Although the preferred specific embodiments of the present invention are described above in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, the present invention should not be limited to the structures and operations that are exactly the same as the above description and the accompanying drawings. For those skilled in the art, many equivalent improvements and changes can be made to the above embodiments through logical analysis, reasoning or limited experiments without exceeding the concept and scope of the present invention, but these improvements and changes should all fall within the scope of protection required by the present invention.
