The insulating plug plastic shell 41 is vertically fixedly connected to the circuit board 10. The transmission conductive terminals 42 are all fixedly embedded in the insulating plug plastic shell 41, and the lower ends of the transmission conductive terminals 42 are fixedly welded on the circuit board 10. The transmission conductive terminals 42 are electrically connected to the corresponding transmission conductive wires 30 through the circuit board 10. Then, electrical connection and data transmission between the outside of the circuit board 10 can be realized through the input plug connector 20 and the transmission conductive wire 30. The insulating plug housing 41 is vertically fixedly connected to the circuit board 10, and the transmission conductive terminal 42 is fixedly embedded in the insulating plug housing 41, and the lower end of the transmission conductive terminal 42 is also fixedly welded to the circuit board 10.

The transmission conductive terminal 42 is electrically connected to the corresponding transmission conductive wire 30 through the circuit board 10 one by one, so that the electrical connection and data transmission between the plug connector, the transmission conductive wire 30, the circuit board 10 and the transmission conductive terminal 42 can be realized. When the external plug is plugged into the insulating plug housing 41, it can achieve electrical contact with the transmission conductive terminal 42. Moreover, the insulating plug-in plastic shell 41 is vertically fixedly connected to the circuit board 10, and the transmission conductive terminals 42 are fixedly embedded in the insulating plug-in plastic shell 41, and the lower ends of the transmission conductive terminals 42 are fixedly welded to the circuit board 10, so that the transmission conductive terminals 42 and the insulating plug-in plastic shell 41 are stably and firmly arranged on the circuit board 10, ensuring good contact, avoiding bending to cause loose contact and unstable data transmission. In addition, the circuit board 10 will not avoid bending and winding, which is more convenient to organize. Specifically, as follows:

[0023] See also Figures 1 to 3 In the present embodiment, the two opposite sides of the bottom of the insulating plug-in plastic shell 41 are convexly extended in directions away from each other to form mounting steps 411, and the bottom of the mounting step 411 is fixedly connected to the circuit board 10 to increase the mounting contact area between the insulating plug-in plastic shell 41 and the circuit board 10, so that the insulating plug-in plastic shell 41 is more firmly and stably fixedly connected to the circuit board 10, preventing the insulating plug-in plastic shell 41 from accidentally loosening and detaching, thereby extending the service life.

[0024] See also Figure 3 and Figure 4A welding base 421 is formed at the bottom of the transmission conductive terminal 42, and a welding column 422 is formed at the lower end of the welding base 421. The welding column 422 is vertically inserted into the circuit board 10.

[0025] See also Figure 4 The left and right sides of the transmission conductive terminal 42 are bent forward to form opposing abutment and clamping walls 423. When an external plug is plugged into the insulating plug shell 41, the two opposing abutment and clamping walls 423 can increase the conductive contact area, thereby ensuring good conductive contact during plugging.

[0026] Preferably, in this embodiment, the transmission conductive terminal 42 is also torn backward to form an anti-detachment push wall 424, and the anti-detachment push wall 424 is fixedly clamped on the insulating plug-in plastic shell 41, so that the transmission conductive terminal 42 is more stably and firmly embedded in the insulating plug-in plastic shell 41, and the structure is safer and more firm.

[0027] Please continue reading Figure 4 A plurality of convex strips 425 are also stamped on the transmission conductive terminal 42, and the convex strips 425 are arranged to extend in the vertical direction. The convex strips 425 formed by stamping can strengthen the vertical strength of the transmission conductive terminal 42 and prevent the transmission conductive terminal 42 from accidentally bending. The structure is more solid and stable, and the service life is greatly extended.

[0028] See also Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 In this embodiment, an arc-shaped elastic abutment wall 426 is formed on the top of the transmission conductive terminal 42, and the arc-shaped elastic abutment wall 426 is arranged to be curved and convex toward the front. When the external plug is plugged into the insulating plug shell 41, the arc-shaped elastic abutment wall 426 can ensure a tighter and more stable conductive contact, thereby ensuring good plug-in conductive contact and improving the stability of data transmission.

[0029] See also Figure 2 A plug-in cavity 412 is formed in the insulating plug-in plastic shell 41, and the abutting and holding wall 423, the convex strip 425 and the arc-shaped elastic abutting wall 426 on the transmission conductive terminal 42 are all located in the plug-in cavity 412 for external plug insertion, and the structure is more reasonable.

When the external plug is plugged into the insulating plug shell 41, the pressing protrusions 413 can push the external plug to more tightly press against the arc-shaped elastic abutment wall 426, which can ensure a tighter and more stable conductive contact, thereby ensuring good plug-in conductive contact and improving the stability of data transmission. The upper end of the pressing protrusion 413 is an arc surface structure, which can conveniently guide the external plug in and out of the plug cavity 412, and the structure is more reasonable.

[0031] See also Figures 1 to 3 The side of the insulating plug shell 41 is also convexly formed with a guide protrusion 414, which is extended in the vertical direction, so as to play a guiding and anti-mistake role when plugging with an external plug, making the plugging smoother and preventing the plugging direction from being wrong, and the structure is more reasonable.

[0032] Preferably, in this embodiment, the welding base 421, welding column 422, abutment and clamping wall 423, anti-slip pushing wall 424, convex strip 425 and arc-shaped elastic abutment wall 426 on the transmission conductive terminal 42 are all stamped and formed in one piece, making the transmission conductive terminal 42 more solid and more structurally reasonable.
