[0025] Next, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described with reference to the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present utility model, rather than all the embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art based on the embodiments of the present utility model without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0026] Please refer to Figure 1-10 , the present utility model provides a technical solution: a terminal wrench and a wire clamping elastic piece. In Figure 1 、 Figure 2 a terminal A with a preferred embodiment according to the present utility model 100 is shown.

[0027] Further, as Figure 1-8 shown, the terminal A generally includes an insulating housing C. The insulating housing C can be constructed of insulating plastic. The insulating housing C has a wire insertion opening A1, and the wire L to be connected can be inserted into the housing C along the insertion direction E through the wire insertion opening so as to be connected to the connecting device 100.

[0028] Further, as Figure 1-8 shown, the connecting device 100 is installed inside the insulating housing C. The connecting device 100 includes a terminal wrench 120 and a wire clamping elastic piece 111. Among them, by means of the wire clamping elastic piece 111, the wire L inserted into the insulating housing C can be clamped with the electrical conductor B and thus connected.

[0029] Further, as Figure 9 shown, the wrench 120 is installed on the rotating shaft 123 in the installation cavity of the insulating housing C. The wrench 120 includes an operating part 121 and an acting part 122. Its operating part 121 is placed at the upper position outside the insulating housing C, and its acting part extends into the insulating housing C; at the lower end of the acting part 122 of the wrench 120, a rectangular closed slot 126 is provided, and the width provided inside the rectangular closed slot 126 allows the holding leg 112 of the wire clamping elastic piece 111 to pass through.

[0030] Furthermore, as Figure 10 shown, the wire clamping spring piece 111 is made of stainless steel material. The wire clamping spring piece 111 has a U-shaped bent arm structure 114 in the middle, a holding leg 112 and a clamping leg 113; the middle U-shaped bent arm structure 114 is arranged on a fixed rotating shaft in the inner cavity of the insulating housing C, and the wire clamping spring piece 111 can rotate up and down around the rotating shaft, and the holding leg 112 and the clamping leg 113 can also rotate accordingly so that the holding leg 112 and the clamping leg 113 can rotate to the open position and the closed position. The clamping leg 113 can clamp the wire L inserted from the conductive channel relative to the electrical conductor B in the closed position.

[0031] Furthermore, when the user wants to open the wire insertion channel to insert the wire L, as Figure 3 shown, the user only needs to open the terminal wrench 120. The operating part 121 of the wrench 120 is lifted up, and the acting part 122 rotates upward, driving the holding leg 112 of the wire clamping spring piece passing through the rectangular closed slot 126 to lift upward. The whole wire clamping spring piece 111 rotates upward, and the clamping leg 113 of the wire clamping spring piece 111 lifts upward away from the electrical conductor B to form a wire insertion channel.

[0032] Furthermore, as Figure 3-6 shown, when the operating part 121 of the terminal wrench 120 is lifted up, the clamping leg 113 can rotate from the clamping position as Figure 4 、 Figure 6 shown to the open position as Figure 3 、 Figure 5 shown. The wrench 120 is in dynamic engagement with the holding leg 112 in the clamping position as Figure 4 、 Figure 6 shown and the open position as Figure 3 、 Figure 5 shown. The holding leg 112 is swingably supported, and by operating the wrench 120, the wire clamping spring piece 111 can be rotated up and down so that the clamping leg 113 forms a wire insertion channel with the electrical conductor B.

[0033] Furthermore, as Figure 2-3 shown, after the terminal wrench 120 is opened, there is a downward concave fixed position 13 at the lower end of the acting part 122 embedded in the protruding fixed position 12 in the installation cavity of the insulating housing, preventing it from automatically swinging back to the initial position and making the wrench 120 more stable in the open state, facilitating the insertion of the wire into the conductive channel.

[0034] Furthermore, as Figure 5-9 shown, after the terminal wrench 120 is opened, an inwardly inclined space 127 is left at the back position of the acting part 122 for the up and down rotation of the holding leg 112, and there are two symmetrical sheet-like planes 128A, 128B outside the space to limit the rotation direction and orientation of the holding leg 112.

[0035] Further, such as Figure 3-9 As shown, the terminal wrench 120 includes an operating portion 121 and an action portion 122, a limiting surface 124 is provided below the action portion 122, and the housing C is provided with a platform 14 that cooperates with the limiting surface 125 to limit the upward rotation range of the operating portion 121. At the same time, a cylindrical railing 125 is provided below the limiting surface 124 to limit the rotation range of the clamping spring 111.

[0036] Further, such as Figure 2-3 As shown, when the operating portion 121 of the terminal wrench 120 is rotated upward to the upper limit position, the operating portion 121 is in the same position as the initial position. Figure 2 Shown is an acute angle of 45 degrees.

[0037] Further, such as Figure 7 As shown, when the wire insertion channel is opened, the user can insert the wire L from the direction E into the opening A1 of the wire insertion channel.

[0038] Further, such as Figure 7-8 As shown, when the operating portion 121 of the terminal wrench 120 is pressed down, the action portion 122 rotates downward, driving the retaining leg 112 of the clamping spring 111 passing through the rectangular closed slot 126 to rotate downward and return to the closed position. At the same time, the clamping spring 111 rotates downward as a whole, and the clamping leg 113 of the clamping spring 111 clamps the electrical conductor downward to form a circuit path, completing the quick wiring.

[0039] Furthermore, a limit surface 124 is also provided below the action portion 122 to limit the downward rotation range of the operating portion 121. At the same time, a cylindrical railing 125 is provided below the limit surface 124 to limit the rotation range of the clamping spring 111 and finally return to the original position.

[0040] Further, such as Figure 7-8 As shown, after the wire L is inserted into the conductive channel, the downward turning operation part 121 returns to the original position, the space between the wire clamping spring 111 and the conductor B is squeezed, the wire clamping spring 111 is deformed, and the upper part of the wire L is squeezed by the bottom 115 of the clamping leg 113 of the wire clamping spring 111, which limits the pulling out of the wire and fixes it inside the terminal A, forming a circuit path, and completing the quick wiring.

[0041] Further, such as Figure 8 When the operating portion 121 of the wiring terminal wrench 120 rotates downward to the lower limit position, the operating portion 121 returns to the initial position.

[0042] Further, such as Figure 10 As shown, the U-shaped arm structure 114, the retaining leg 112 and the clamping leg 113 in the wire clamping spring 111 are integrally formed by stamping and bending.

[0043] Furthermore, in other aspects, the connecting device 100 is constructed according to the design shown in Figure 5 and 6 with Figure 9 and 10 .

[0044] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, those of ordinary skill in the art can understand that various changes, modifications, substitutions, and variations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principle and spirit of the present invention. The scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
