[0068] There are many electrical components in electrical equipment such as vehicles, and most of the electrical components need to be grounded when connected and used. At present, grounding in vehicles is generally achieved by setting a lap point on the body to connect the ground terminal of the electrical component. A lap point refers to a connection point with an internal threaded hole welded on an electrical device, and the lap point on the body of a vehicle is often also called a grounding point. During assembly, the grounding terminal of the electrical component is fixed to the lap point by connecting the lap bolt with the threaded hole. A lap bolt refers to a bolt that matches the internal threaded hole on the lap point, and the lap bolt in the vehicle is often also called a grounding bolt. Since there are multiple electrical components in the vehicle that need to be grounded, multiple lap points need to be set in the vehicle, and the setting of each lap point requires welding the lap point on the body, which increases the welding time and cost. Fixing the wiring terminal at each lap point will also increase the process and the time, thereby increasing the assembly time.
[0069] Based on the above considerations, in order to solve the problem that there are many electrical components that need to be grounded in the vehicle, which leads to the need to set up more overlapping points in the vehicle, an embodiment of the present application provides a wiring terminal, which is connected to the same fixed part through multiple terminal parts, and the fixed part is connected to the overlapping point, that is, the multiple terminal parts can be electrically connected to the overlapping point, and a terminal connector is installed on each terminal part to facilitate the connection of the terminal interfaces of multiple electrical components, so as to reduce the number of overlapping points set; when applied to vehicles, it can reduce the number of overlapping points set in the vehicle, reduce welding hours and assembly hours, reduce costs, and improve vehicle assembly efficiency.
