[0002] The material of the connector terminal is generally copper, and the surface is generally electroplated with a layer of electroplating to prevent copper oxidation. Before assembly, the terminal is fixed together with the material strip, so the material strip will be electroplated together with the terminal; after the terminal is assembled, the material strip needs to be broken and recycled. The terminal of the traditional connector is generally provided with a cut-off part at its lower end, and the material strip is set at the cut-off part at the lower end of the terminal. When the material strip is broken, the cut-off part at the lower end of the terminal will expose copper, and the terminal is generally welded to the PCB board after passing the lower end through the PCB board. After the copper at the lower end of the terminal is exposed, the tinning effect is not good during welding, and the exposed copper is easily oxidized and rusted, thereby affecting the transmission of the signal; on the other hand, Chinese utility model CN207490185U discloses an intelligent connector. The grounding terminal of this solution is fork-shaped and is provided with multiple groups of notches. In actual use, the connector is required to have strong tensile strength. The above-mentioned grounding terminal is connected with other structures by setting different notches. The tensile strength between the shell and other structures is obviously not strong enough. In this background, the applicant is committed to developing a connector with a stable structure and terminal soldering feet that do not expose copper and are not easy to rust. The connector can achieve the goal of not exposing copper at the lower end of the terminal, and is not easily oxidized and rusted after being welded to the PCB board, which reduces the impact on signal transmission to a certain extent and significantly improves the tensile strength of the shell.

The terminal 4 is connected to the two groups of material strips for electroplating together. During assembly, the two groups of material strips are also broken off and recycled from the first breaking portion 411 and the second breaking portion 43 as needed, so that the exposed copper part is at the first abutment 41 and the second breaking portion 43 at the front end of the terminal 4, while the lower end of the terminal 4 is wrapped by the electroplating layer and copper is not exposed. When the lower end of the terminal 4 is welded to the PCB board, the tinned layer is easier to tin and weld, and there is no need to worry about oxidation and rusting due to the exposed copper of the soldering foot, thereby reducing the impact on signal transmission to a certain extent.
