The following embodiments are used to illustrate the present utility model, but are not used to limit the scope of the present utility model.
[0035] Refer to Figures 1 to 9 As Figures 1 to 9A detachable wire harness connector as shown, including a connector body 10. A male socket 11 is provided at the front end of the connector body 10. A pin socket 12 for installing pins (not shown in the figure) is provided at the rear end of the connector body 10. A dovetail groove / T-slot 13 is provided on the upper surface of the connector body 10 and runs in the front-rear direction of the connector body 10. It further includes a fixing base 20.

[0051] In the above structure, the reinforcing rib plate 221 is used to assist in strengthening one side of the connecting column 22 in the width direction, resulting in a reduction in strength on the other side. When it is necessary to remove the fixed seat 20 from the fixing hole, by twisting in the rolling direction (refer to Figure 9 shown), the connecting column 22 can be broken at the weakened part.
[0052] In this embodiment, the connecting column 22 is provided with a material-saving groove 222 on both sides in the width direction of the connector body 10.
