The utility model is described in detail in combination with specific embodiments as follows:

[0036] In one embodiment, Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 As shown, the utility model provides an electric slip ring assembly, comprising: a connection socket 1, a conductive ring 2 and a conductive sheet 3, wherein the conductive ring 2 is sleeved on the connection socket 1, and the conductive sheet 3 is in sliding contact with the conductive ring 2 for conductive connection. In this embodiment, the connection socket 1 is a cylindrical structure, and a plug-in circular hole 11 is formed inside the cylindrical structure, and the plug-in circular hole 11 is used to connect with the sleeve.

[0037] like Figure 1 , Figure 3As shown, two conductive rings 2 are provided, and an electrical connection sheet 22 for connecting to a wire is provided on the conductive ring 2. The two conductive rings 2 are sleeved on the outer peripheral wall of the connection socket 1. Optionally, the conductive ring 2 can be fixed to the connection socket 1 by hot melting, bonding, integral molding, etc. The two conductive rings 2 are arranged at intervals from each other, and two conductive sheets 3 are provided. Each conductive sheet 3 is arranged in sliding contact with a conductive ring 2. The conductive sheet 3 is made of elastic material, and the conductive sheet 3 contacts the conductive ring 2 under the action of elastic force. The two conductive sheets 3 are used to connect to power lines of different electrodes, and the conductive sheets 3 supply power to the conductive ring 2.

[0038] Alternatively, if Figure 2 As shown, at least one fixing hole 12 is respectively provided near both ends of the connecting socket 1, and the fixing hole 12 is used to install the connecting member 4. The connecting member 4 can be, for example, a bolt, and the fixing hole 12 is set as a threaded hole, and the sleeve is fixed by the bolt. Alternatively, the connecting member 4 is a pin, and the fixing hole 12 is a smooth hole, and an interference fit is formed between the pin and the fixing hole 12, and the connecting socket 1 is fixed to the sleeve by the pin.

[0039] In one embodiment, an annular rib 13 is formed on the outer wall of the connecting socket 1 along its circumference, and the two conductive rings 2 are respectively located on both sides of the annular rib 13. The annular rib 13 serves to separate the two conductive rings 2 to ensure that the two conductive rings 2 will not contact each other, and at the same time, it can also increase electrical safety performance such as creepage distance and air gap.

[0040] Optionally, a limiting rib 14 is provided on each side of the annular rib 13, and the limiting rib 14 is an annular structure. A mounting groove is formed between the annular rib 13 and the limiting rib 14, and the conductive ring 2 is embedded in the mounting groove.

Optionally, a hemispherical convex point is set at the position of the inner side wall of the conductive sheet 3 in contact with the conductive ring 2, and the hemispherical convex point constitutes the contact point 31. The contact point 31 is in contact with the conductive ring 2, which can ensure effective conductive contact on the one hand and reduce friction on the other hand.

Optionally, the contact point 31 may be composed of a hemispherical convex point, or a convex structure may be formed by bending.

The protruding structure 23 is in contact with the conductive sheet 3, which can increase the pressure at the contact position with the conductive sheet 3, thereby improving the reliability of the contact. The protruding structure 23 is in an arc shape, and forms an arc contact with the conductive sheet 3, which can also ensure that there is a large contact area between the conductive sheet 3 and the conductive ring 2, thereby ensuring the effectiveness of power transmission.

[0044] In one embodiment, the utility model further provides a high-frequency electric knife, comprising a handle, a sleeve, a jaw assembly and the above-mentioned electric slip ring assembly.

[0045] Optionally, the second end of the sleeve extends into the plug-in circular hole 11 of the connection socket 1, and then is inserted into the fixing hole 12 through the connector 4 to fix the sleeve. The two conductive rings 2 are respectively connected to the positive and negative poles of the jaw assembly through wires.
