Technical Field
[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of electrical components, and relates to a housing, an outer shell, a connector and an electrical equipment. Background Art
[0002] In the related art, electrical connection between wires such as cables can be achieved through a connector. Among them, the connector mainly includes an outer shell and a short-circuit terminal. The outer shell has a receiving cavity, and the short-circuit terminal is arranged in the receiving cavity. Both ends of the short-circuit terminal are respectively used for electrically connecting wiring terminals, so that short-circuit between two wiring terminals can be realized. Define these two wiring terminals as the first wiring terminal and the second wiring terminal respectively. During use, the first wiring terminal is electrically connected to the first wire, and the second wiring terminal is electrically connected to the second wire. Then, both the first wiring terminal and the second wiring terminal extend into the receiving cavity to be electrically connected to the short-circuit terminal, thereby realizing the electrical connection between the first wire and the second wire.
[0003] In order to prevent the wiring terminal from withdrawing from the receiving cavity, in the related art, a blocking structure is usually arranged on the inner wall of the receiving cavity, but this will increase the production difficulty of the outer shell and thus increase the cost. Summary of the Utility Model
[0004] Aiming at the problem that the production difficulty of the outer shell will be increased by arranging a blocking structure on the inner wall of the receiving cavity in the related art, a housing, an outer shell, a connector and an electrical equipment are provided.
[0005] To solve the above technical problems, on the one hand, an embodiment of the utility model provides a housing, which includes a first main body and a first connecting part; the first main body is adapted to be connected to a bottom shell to enclose a receiving cavity; the first connecting part includes a first connecting arm and a first blocking structure; the first connecting arm is connected to the first main body; the first blocking structure is connected to the first connecting arm; at least a part of the first connecting arm can move relative to the first main body to drive the first blocking structure to move. When the first connecting arm moves to the blocking position, the first blocking structure can block a first wiring terminal located in the receiving cavity to prevent the first wiring terminal from withdrawing from the receiving cavity.
[0006] In the utility model, the first blocking structure is arranged on the first connecting arm instead of directly on the inner wall of the receiving cavity. During use, at least a part of the first connecting arm moves relative to the first main body, and then drives the first blocking structure to move. When the first connecting arm moves to the blocking position, the first blocking structure abuts against the first wiring terminal to prevent the first wiring terminal from withdrawing from the receiving cavity. In this way, on the premise of using the first blocking structure to keep the first wiring terminal in the receiving cavity, the production preparation of the housing is convenient, and thus the production preparation of the outer shell is convenient.
[0007] Optionally, at least a portion of the first connecting arm can rotate relative to the first main body to drive the first resisting structure to rotate, so that the first resisting structure can resist the first terminal located in the accommodating cavity to prevent the first terminal from exiting the accommodating cavity.

When the first resisting structure moves to resist the first terminal in the accommodating cavity from the window, the first connecting structure can be connected to the second connecting structure, so that the first resisting structure can be kept in the current position, so that the first resisting structure can maintain the state of resisting the first terminal. Subsequently, the first connecting structure can also be disengaged from the second connecting structure, so that the first resisting structure can release the resistance of the first terminal, so that the first terminal can be withdrawn from the accommodating cavity.
[0012] Optionally, when the second connection structure is connected to the first connection structure, the first connection part and the first main body enclose to form a receiving space for the bottom shell. During assembly, when the first connection arm rotates, it can first bypass the bottom shell, and then realize the connection between the first connection structure and the second connection structure.

When assembling the connector, the housing can be first placed on the corresponding fixture, then the short-circuit terminal can be placed in the second groove, and then the bottom case can be placed on the first surface of the first body. Among them, a corresponding positioning block can be provided on the fixture. When the housing is placed on the fixture, the positioning block can extend into the positioning hole, so as to realize the positioning of the housing and facilitate the assembly of the connector. In addition, after the connector is assembled, it can also be detected from the positioning hole whether the short-circuit terminal is installed in the outer shell, or it can also be detected from the positioning hole whether the short-circuit terminal is misaligned relative to the first body, thereby effectively preventing defective products from flowing to the next process.
[0018] Optionally, the number of the first grooves is multiple, and the first grooves are sequentially arranged at intervals along the first direction; and / or, the number of the third grooves is multiple, and the third grooves are sequentially arranged at intervals along the first direction.

[0021] Optionally, the first limiting structure includes a protruding structure provided on the bottom surface of the second groove; the first limiting structure is adapted to pass through the mounting hole on the shorting terminal to realize the position limitation of the shorting terminal.

In addition, after the connector is assembled, it can be detected from the positioning hole whether a shorting terminal is installed in the outer shell, or it can be detected from the positioning hole whether the shorting terminal is misaligned relative to the first body, thereby effectively avoiding defective products from flowing to the next process. In addition, by setting the positioning hole between the first limiting structure and the first limiting hole, during subsequent assembly, the first limiting structure cooperates with the second limiting hole on the bottom shell, and the first limiting hole cooperates with the second limiting structure on the bottom shell. In this way, the two sets of structures for realizing the limiting cooperation between the housing and the bottom shell are respectively located on both sides of the positioning hole, which helps to improve the limiting effect of the housing and the bottom shell. Moreover, when the first body of the housing and the second body structure of the bottom shell are the same, setting the positioning hole between the first limiting structure and the first limiting hole is also beneficial to the design and production preparation of the housing and the bottom shell.

[0059] In order to make the technical problems, technical solutions and beneficial effects solved by the present utility model clearer and more understandable, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the present utility model and are not used to limit the present utility model.
[0060] As Figures 1 to 4 shown, in one embodiment, the connector 100 is used to realize the electrical connection between two wiring terminals. Among them, the two wiring terminals are respectively the first wiring terminal 200 and the second wiring terminal 300. The first wiring terminal 200 can be electrically connected to the first wire, and the second wiring terminal 300 can be electrically connected to the second wire. When the first wiring terminal 200 and the second wiring terminal 300 are electrically connected through the connector 100, the electrical connection between the first wire and the second wire can be realized.
[0061] AsFigure 1 and Figure 2 As shown in and
[0062] , in one embodiment, the connector 100 includes a housing 10 and a short - circuit terminal 20. The housing 10 has a receiving cavity 3, and the short - circuit terminal 20 is installed in the receiving cavity 3. The short - circuit terminal 20 is adapted to electrically connect a first wiring terminal 200 and a second wiring terminal 300 to achieve electrical connection between the first wiring terminal 200 and the second wiring terminal 300.
[0062] Among them, the receiving cavity 3 penetrates through the housing 10, so that the first wiring terminal 200 and the second wiring terminal 300 can extend into the receiving cavity 3 to achieve electrical connection with the short - circuit terminal 20.
[0063] In addition, the housing 10 is an insulator.
[0064] As Figure 1 and Figure 2 shown, in one embodiment, the housing 10 includes a housing body 1 and a bottom shell 2. Among them, the housing body 1 is connected to the bottom shell 2 to enclose and form the receiving cavity 3.
[0065] In one embodiment, the housing body 1 and the bottom shell 2 are detachably connected. After they are connected together, they can enclose and form the receiving cavity 3.
[0066] As Figure 5 shown, in one embodiment, the housing body 1 includes a first main body 11 and a first connecting portion 12. Among them, the first main body 11 is adapted to be connected to the bottom shell 2 to enclose and form the receiving cavity 3. The first connecting portion 12 includes a first connecting arm 121 and a first resisting structure 122. The first connecting arm 121 is connected to the first main body 11. The first resisting structure 122 is connected to the first connecting arm 121. At least a part of the first connecting arm 121 can move relative to the first main body 11 to drive the first resisting structure 122 to move. When the first connecting arm 121 moves to the resisting position, the first resisting structure 122 can resist the first wiring terminal 200 located in the receiving cavity 3 to prevent the first wiring terminal 200 from withdrawing from the receiving cavity 3.
[0067] In this embodiment, after the first terminal 200 extends into the receiving cavity 3, the first connecting arm 121 can be driven to move the first blocking structure 122 closer to the receiving cavity 3, and finally make the first blocking structure 122 contact the first terminal 200, thereby preventing the first terminal 200 from withdrawing from the receiving cavity 3. In the prior art, the housing 10 and the short-circuit terminal 20 are usually integrally formed by injection molding. Therefore, it is relatively troublesome to prepare the blocking structure on the inner wall of the receiving cavity 3. However, in this embodiment, there is no need to directly provide the blocking structure on the inner wall of the receiving cavity 3, that is, the first terminal 200 can be blocked and limited. In this way, on the premise of using the first blocking structure 122 to limit the first terminal 200, the preparation of the housing 1 can be facilitated, and thus the production and preparation of the housing 10 can be facilitated.
[0068] Among them, the "blocking position" may refer to the position where the first connecting arm 121 is located when the first connecting arm 121 moves to a position where the first blocking structure 122 can block the first terminal 200 in the receiving cavity 3.
[0069] As Figure 1 shown, in an embodiment, a window 4 is provided on the bottom case 2, and the first blocking structure 122 can block the first terminal 200 located in the receiving cavity 3 from the window 4 to prevent the first terminal 200 from withdrawing from the receiving cavity 3.
[0070] During assembly, the first connecting arm 121 can drive the first blocking structure 122 to move to the window 4, so that the first blocking structure 122 contacts the first terminal 200, thereby preventing the first terminal 200 from withdrawing from the receiving cavity 3.
[0071] It should be understood that the window 4 penetrates through and communicates with the receiving cavity 3, so that the first blocking structure 122 outside the receiving cavity 3 can block the first terminal 200 in the receiving cavity 3 from the window 4. Specifically, the first blocking structure 122 can extend into the receiving cavity 3 from the window 4 to contact the first terminal 200; or, the first terminal 200 extends out of the housing 10 from the window 4 and contacts the first blocking structure 122; or, both the first blocking structure 122 and the first terminal 200 can extend into the window 4 and contact each other in the window 4.
[0072] In an embodiment, at least a part of the first connecting arm 121 can rotate relative to the first main body 11 to drive the first blocking structure 122 to rotate, so that the first blocking structure 122 can block the first terminal 200 located in the receiving cavity 3 to prevent the first terminal 200 from withdrawing from the receiving cavity 3.
[0073] In one embodiment, the first body 11, the first connecting arm 121, and the first blocking structure 122 are integrally formed structures, which is more convenient for the production and preparation of the housing 1. At this time, the first connecting arm 121 can be bent, so that at least a part of the first connecting arm 121 rotates relative to the first body 11.
[0074] Among them, the first body 11, the first connecting arm 121, and the first blocking structure 122 are all made of plastic. At this time, the first body 11, the first connecting arm 121, and the first blocking structure 122 can be integrally formed by injection molding.
[0075] As Figure 5 shown, in one embodiment, along the direction away from the first body 11, the first connecting arm 121 includes a first connecting plate 123 and a second connecting plate 124 connected in sequence. Among them, the thickness of the first connecting plate 123 is less than the thickness of the second connecting plate 124, which is more conducive to the bending of the first connecting arm 121 at the first connecting plate 123. Among them, the first connecting plate 123 and the second connecting plate 124 are arranged along the first direction, and the thicknesses of the first connecting plate 123 and the second connecting plate 124 both refer to their dimensions in the second direction. In Figure 5 the shown direction, the first direction is parallel to the X axis, and the second direction is parallel to the Z axis.
[0076] As Figure 5 shown, in one embodiment, the first blocking structure 122 includes a convex structure, and the convex structure of the first blocking structure 122 is used to block the first terminal 200 located in the receiving cavity 3 to prevent the first terminal 200 from exiting the receiving cavity 3. Among them, the first blocking structure 122 blocking the first terminal 200 in the receiving cavity 3 from the window 4 actually means that the convex structure of the first blocking structure 122 blocks the first terminal 200 in the receiving cavity 3 from the window 4. In addition, the first blocking structure 122 can be arranged on the second connecting plate 124.
[0077] As Figure 6 shown, the first terminal 200 includes a first connecting portion 5 and a second connecting portion 6 connected in sequence. Among them, the thickness of the first connecting portion 5 is greater than the thickness of the second connecting portion 6, and a step structure is formed between the two. In use, the first connecting portion 5 is used to extend into the receiving cavity 3 to electrically connect the short-circuit terminal 20, and the second connecting portion 6 is used to electrically connect the first wire.
[0078] When the first terminal 200 extends into the receiving cavity 3 to electrically connect the short-circuit terminal 20, the first connecting portion 5 and the second connecting portion 6 can be arranged along the third direction, and the thicknesses of the first connecting portion 5 and the second connecting portion 6 both refer to their dimensions on the Z axis. Among them, in Figure 5In the shown direction, the third direction is parallel to the Z-axis. Additionally, any two of the X-axis, Y-axis, and Z-axis do not coincide and are not parallel. Preferably, any two of the X-axis, Y-axis, and Z-axis are perpendicular to each other.
[0079] When the first terminal 200 is electrically connected to the short-circuit terminal 20, the first connection part 5 is completely located within the accommodation cavity 3, and at least a part of the second connection part 6 is located within the accommodation cavity 3. The first blocking structure 122 can extend into the side of the first connection part 5 close to the second connection part 6 from the window 4. Moreover, the first blocking structure 122 corresponds to the part of the first connection part 5 that protrudes (protrudes in the thickness direction of the first terminal 200) from the second connection part 6. When the first terminal 200 moves in the direction from the first connection part 5 to the second connection part 6, the first connection part 5 will abut against the first blocking structure 122, thereby preventing the first terminal 200 from exiting the accommodation cavity 3 and enabling the first terminal 200 to maintain the electrical connection with the short-circuit terminal 20.
[0080] In addition, when the first blocking structure 122 extends into the side of the first connection part 5 close to the second connection part 6 from the window 4, it can also abut against the surface of the first connection part 5 close to the second connection part 6 to prevent the first terminal 200 from moving in the direction from the first connection part 5 to the second connection part 6.
[0081] In an embodiment, the first connection part 5 can be a female terminal, and the part of the short-circuit terminal 20 used to connect the first connection part 12 is equivalent to a male terminal, and the two are plugged together to achieve electrical connection.
[0082] In addition, the second connection part 6 includes a wiring board 61 and a pressing plate 62. Among them, the wiring board 61 is connected to the first connection part 5, and the pressing plate 62 is connected to the wiring board 61 to press the first wire against the wiring board 61, thereby achieving the electrical connection between the first terminal 200 and the first wire.
[0083] It should be noted that the cooperation between the short-circuit terminal 20 and the first terminal 200 and the cooperation between the first terminal 200 and the first wire can both be prior art. Moreover, both the short-circuit terminal 20 and the first terminal 200 can also adopt existing designs.
[0084] Such as Figure 5As shown, in one embodiment, the first connection part 12 further includes a first connection structure 125 and a second connection structure 126; the first connection structure 125 is connected to the first main body 11; the second connection structure 126 is connected to the first connection arm 121 and is located on the side of the first blocking structure 122 away from the first main body 11; when at least a part of the first connection arm 121 rotates relative to the first main body 11, in addition to being able to drive the first blocking structure 122 to move, it can also drive the second connection structure 126 to move, so that the second connection structure 126 approaches the first connection structure 125, and further enables the first connection structure 125 to be connected to the second connection structure 126. When the first blocking structure 122 moves to block the first wiring terminal 200 in the accommodation cavity 3 from the window 4 (that is, when the first connection arm 121 moves to the blocking position), the first connection structure 125 can be connected to the second connection structure 126, so that the first blocking structure 122 can be maintained in the current position, and the first blocking structure 122 can maintain the state of blocking the first wiring terminal 200.
[0085] In one embodiment, the first connection structure 125 and the second connection structure 126 are detachably connected. When the first connection arm 121 moves to the blocking position, the first connection structure 125 can be connected and cooperate with the second connection structure 126, and can be disengaged after the connection and cooperation. Among them, when the first connection structure 125 is connected to the second connection structure 126, the first blocking structure 122 can be maintained in the state of blocking the first wiring terminal 200. Subsequently, the first connection structure 125 and the second connection structure 126 can also be disengaged, so that the blocking of the first wiring terminal 200 by the first blocking structure 122 can be released, and the first wiring terminal 200 can exit from the accommodation cavity 3.
[0086] In one embodiment, the first connection structure 125 can be snap-connected to the second connection structure 126. That is, the connection method between the first connection structure 125 and the second connection structure 126 is snap connection, which is more convenient for the connection of the two. Among them, the snap connection between the first connection structure 125 and the second connection structure 126 is a way to achieve detachable connection between the first connection structure 125 and the second connection structure 126. Of course, the first connection structure 125 and the second connection structure 126 can also be detachably connected by means such as bolt connection, and this embodiment does not limit this here.
[0087] As Figure 5 shown, in one embodiment, the first connection structure 125 includes a clamping block, and the second connection structure 126 includes a clamping hole. The clamping block can be placed into the clamping hole, so as to realize the snap connection between the first connection structure 125 and the second connection structure 126.
[0088] As Figure 5As shown, in one embodiment, the first connecting arm 121 further includes a third connecting plate 127. The third connecting plate 127 is connected to one end of the second connecting plate 124 away from the first connecting plate 123, and the second connecting structure 126 is disposed on the third connecting plate 127.
[0089] In one embodiment, along the direction from the first connecting plate 123 to the second connecting plate 124 (i.e., along the X-axis direction), the second connecting structure 126 penetrates through the third connecting plate 127. Additionally, the first blocking structure 122 is located between the third connecting plate 127 and the first connecting plate 123, and the first blocking structure 122 and the third connecting plate 127 can be disposed on the same surface of the second connecting plate 124.
[0090] As Figure 4 shown, in one embodiment, when the second connecting structure 126 is connected to the first connecting structure 125, the first connecting portion 12 and the first main body 11 enclose a receiving space for receiving the bottom case 2. During assembly, the first connecting arm 121 first rotates around the bottom case 2 and then realizes the connection between the first connecting structure 125 and the second connecting structure 126. In this embodiment, the window 4 is disposed on the bottom case 2.
[0091] In one embodiment, when the second connecting structure 126 is connected to the first connecting structure 125, the first connecting arm 121 can also press the bottom case 2 against the first main body 11. At this time, the first connecting portion 12 is equivalent to bundling the bottom case 2 and the first main body 11 together, thereby realizing the connection between the bottom case 2 and the first main body 11 through the first connecting portion 12.
[0092] As Figure 5 shown, in one embodiment, in the first direction (i.e., the X-axis direction), the first connecting arm 121 and the first connecting structure 125 are respectively connected to different sides of the first main body 11.
[0093] As Figure 5 shown, in one embodiment, the first main body 11 can be a cuboid structure. The first direction can be the width direction of the first main body 11, the second direction can be the thickness direction of the first main body 11, and the third direction can be the length direction of the first main body 11.
[0094] As Figure 5As shown, in one embodiment, in the second direction (i.e., the Z-axis direction), the first body 11 has a first surface 111 adapted to connect to the bottom case 2; a receiving groove 13 is provided on the first surface 111, and the receiving groove 13 extends along the third direction (i.e., the Y-axis direction); at least a part of the receiving groove 13 is adapted to form a receiving cavity 3. When assembling the housing 10, the bottom case 2 is mounted on the first surface 111 of the first body 11, and the bottom case 2 can close the opening formed by the receiving groove 13 on the first surface 111. Additionally, during subsequent use, the short-circuit terminal 20, the first wiring terminal 200, and the second wiring terminal 300 can all be located within the receiving groove 13.
[0095] In an implementable embodiment, the bottom case 2 is also provided with a corresponding groove structure. After the housing 10 is assembled, the groove structure is located on the side of the bottom case 2 close to the first body 11, and the groove structure communicates with the receiving groove 13. At this time, the groove structure and the receiving groove 13 can jointly form the receiving cavity 3.
[0096] In another implementable embodiment, after the housing 10 is assembled, no corresponding groove structure is provided on the side of the bottom case 2 close to the first body 11. At this time, after the bottom case 2 closes the opening formed by the receiving groove 13 on the first surface 111, the receiving groove 13 can form the receiving cavity 3.
[0097] As Figure 5 shown, in one embodiment, in the Y-axis direction, the receiving groove 13 completely penetrates the first body 11. After assembling to form the housing 10, the receiving cavity 3 completely penetrates the housing 10 in the Y-axis direction, so that the receiving cavity 3 can form openings at both ends of the housing 10. During subsequent use, the first wiring terminal 200 and the second wiring terminal 300 can respectively extend into the receiving cavity 3 from both ends in the Y-axis direction.
[0098] Specifically, as Figure 5 shown, in one embodiment, in the Y-axis direction, the receiving groove 13 includes a first groove 131, a second groove 132, and a third groove 133 that are sequentially connected; the first groove 131 is adapted to receive the first wiring terminal 200, the second groove 132 is adapted to receive the short-circuit terminal 20, and the third groove 133 is adapted to receive the second wiring terminal 300.
[0099] In the Y-axis direction, the first body 11 has a first end face 15 and a second end face 16 that are opposite to each other. The direction from the first end face 15 to the second end face 16 is the direction from the first groove 131 to the third groove 133. Among them, the first groove 131 forms a second opening on the first end face 15, and the third groove 133 forms a third opening on the second end face 16. During use, the first wiring terminal 200 can be inserted into the first groove 131 from the second opening, and the second wiring terminal 300 can be inserted into the third groove 133 from the third opening.
[0100] AsFigure 5 As shown, in one embodiment, the number of the first slots 131 is plural, and the first slots 131 are arranged at intervals along the X-axis direction in sequence, and each first slot 131 communicates with the second slot 132; and / or, the number of the third slots 133 is plural, and the third slots 133 are arranged at intervals along the X-axis direction in sequence, and each third slot 133 communicates with the second slot 132. "Plural" means greater than or equal to two, and the meaning of the word "plural" is the same in each embodiment, and will not be described in detail hereinafter.
[0101] During subsequent use, a first terminal 200 can be installed in one first slot 131, and a first terminal 200 can be installed in one third slot 133.
[0102] When the number of the first slots 131 is plural and the number of the third slots 133 is one, the first terminals 200 in each first slot 131 and the second terminals 300 in the third slot 133 are both electrically connected to a short-circuit terminal 20 in the second slot 132.
[0103] When the number of the first slots 131 is one and the number of the third slots 133 is plural, the first terminal 200 in the first slot 131 and the second terminals 300 in each third slot 133 are both electrically connected to a short-circuit terminal 20 in the second slot 132.
[0104] When the number of the first slots 131 is plural and the number of the third slots 133 is plural; the first terminals 200 in each first slot 131 and the second terminals 300 in each third slot 133 are both electrically connected to a short-circuit terminal 20 in the second slot 132. At this time, the number of the first slots 131 can be greater than, equal to, or less than the number of the third slots 133.
[0105] In addition, when the number of the first slots 131 is plural, the number of the windows 4 on the bottom case 2 can also be plural, and the windows 4 are arranged at intervals along the X-axis direction in sequence; moreover, at this time, the number of the first blocking structures 122 can also be plural, and the first blocking structures 122 are arranged at intervals along the X-axis direction in sequence, and the first blocking structures 122, the windows 4, and the first slots 131 can be in one-to-one correspondence. During assembly, a first blocking structure 122 blocks the first terminal 200 located in the first slot 131 corresponding to it from the corresponding window 4.
[0106] In addition, when the number of the first slots 131 is plural, and / or, when the number of the third slots 133 is plural, the number of the second slots 132 can be one, wherein each first slot 131 communicates with the second slot 132, and each third slot 133 communicates with the second slot 132.
[0107] As Figure 7As shown, in one embodiment, the shorting terminal 20 includes a shorting plate 7, a first pin 8, and a second pin 9, which are electrically connected to each other. In the Y-axis direction, the first pin 8 and the second pin 9 are respectively arranged at both ends of the shorting plate 7. Among them, the shorting plate 7 is arranged in the second groove 132; the first pin 8 can extend into the first groove 131 to be electrically connected to the first terminal 200 extending into the first groove 131; the second pin 9 can extend into the third groove 133 to be electrically connected to the second terminal 300 extending into the third groove 133.
[0108] In addition, when the number of the first grooves 131 is multiple, the number of the first pins 8 can also be multiple, and the first pins 8 are sequentially arranged at intervals along the X-axis, and one first pin 8 extends into one first groove 131. When the number of the third grooves 133 is multiple, the number of the second pins 9 can also be multiple, and the second pins 9 are sequentially arranged at intervals along the X-axis, and one second pin 9 extends into one third groove 133.
[0109] As Figure 5 shown, in one embodiment, a first limiting structure 112 is further provided on the first body 11, and the first limiting structure 112 is adapted to limit the installation position of the shorting terminal 20 in the second groove 132, so that the installation position of the shorting terminal 20 can be more accurate, which is beneficial to the shorting terminal 20 for electrically connecting the first terminal 200 and the second terminal 300.
[0110] As Figure 5 shown, in one embodiment, the first limiting structure 112 includes a protruding structure arranged on the bottom surface of the second groove 132, and the first limiting structure 112 is adapted to pass through the installation hole 201 on the shorting terminal 20 to realize the position limitation of the shorting terminal 20. Among them, the first limiting structure 112 passing through the installation hole 201 means that the protruding structure of the first limiting structure 112 passes through the installation hole 201.
[0111] In addition, the first limiting structure 112 can be a cuboid structure, the installation hole 201 is a rectangular hole, and after the first limiting structure 112 passes through the installation hole 201, the inner side surfaces of the rectangular hole can respectively contact the side surfaces of the cuboid structure, so that the position of the shorting terminal 20 in the X-axis and Y-axis directions can be limited.
[0112] In one embodiment, in the Z-axis direction, the installation hole 201 completely penetrates the shorting terminal 20. In addition, the installation hole 201 can be arranged on the shorting plate 7.
[0113] As Figure 5As shown, in one embodiment, a first limiting hole 113 is further provided on the bottom surface of the second groove 132. In the Y-axis direction, the first limiting structure 112 and the first limiting hole 113 are spaced apart. The first limiting hole 113 is adapted to be in limiting cooperation with a second limiting structure on the bottom case 2, and the second limiting structure includes a protruding structure. The first limiting structure 112 is adapted to be in limiting cooperation with a second limiting hole on the bottom case 2.
[0114] The limiting cooperation between the first limiting hole 113 and the second limiting structure means that the second limiting structure extends into the first limiting hole 113 to achieve the cooperation between the two, and the relative positions of the bottom case 2 and the first main body 11 can be limited through the cooperation between the two. Among them, the second limiting structure extending into the first limiting hole 113 means that the protruding structure of the second limiting structure extends into the first limiting hole 113.
[0115] Similarly, the limiting cooperation between the first limiting structure 112 and the second limiting hole means that the first limiting structure 112 extends into the second limiting hole to achieve the cooperation between the two, and the relative positions of the bottom case 2 and the first main body 11 can be limited through the cooperation between the two. The first limiting structure 112 extending into the second limiting hole means that the protruding structure of the first limiting structure 112 extends into the second limiting hole.
[0116] It should be understood that the protruding structure of the first limiting structure 112 actually passes through the short-circuit terminal 20 from the mounting hole 201 and then passes through the second limiting hole.
[0117] In addition, the number of mounting holes 201 provided on the short-circuit terminal 20 is at least one pair. Among them, one pair of mounting holes 201 includes two mounting holes 201, and the two mounting holes 201 in one pair of mounting holes 201 are spaced apart in the Y-axis direction. The first limiting structure 112 of the housing 1 and the second limiting structure of the bottom case 2 respectively pass through the two mounting holes 201. During assembly, the first limiting structure 112 can pass through the short-circuit terminal 20 from one mounting hole 201 and then extend into the second limiting hole, and the second limiting structure can pass through the short-circuit terminal 20 from the other mounting hole 201 and then extend into the first limiting hole 113. Among them, these two mounting holes 201 are a pair. Moreover, both of the two mounting holes 201 can be provided on the short-circuit plate 7. The first limiting structure 112 passing through the mounting hole 201 means that the protruding structure of the first limiting structure 112 passes through the mounting hole 201. The second limiting structure passing through the mounting hole 201 means that the protruding structure of the second limiting structure passes through the mounting hole 201.
[0118] It should be noted that a pair of mounting holes 201 corresponds to a first limiting structure 112, a second limiting structure, a first limiting hole 113, and a second limiting hole. Among them, one of the pair of mounting holes 201 is used for the corresponding first limiting structure 112 to pass through, so that the first limiting structure 112 can cooperate with the second limiting hole corresponding to the pair of mounting holes 201; the other mounting hole 201 in the pair of mounting holes 201 is used for the corresponding second limiting structure to pass through, so that the second limiting structure can cooperate with the first limiting hole 113 corresponding to the pair of mounting holes 201.
[0119] As Figure 5 shown, in an embodiment, a positioning hole 114 is further provided on the bottom surface of the second groove 132. The positioning hole 114 penetrates the first body 11 along the Z-axis direction. When assembling the connector 100, the housing 1 can be first placed on the corresponding fixture, then the short-circuit terminal 20 can be placed in the second groove 132, and then the bottom case 2 can be placed on the first surface 111 of the first body 11. Among them, corresponding positioning blocks can be provided on the fixture. When the housing 1 is placed on the fixture, the positioning blocks can extend into the positioning hole 114, so that the positioning of the housing 1 can be realized, which is convenient for the assembly of the connector 100. In addition, after the connector 100 is assembled, it can also be detected from the positioning hole 114 whether the short-circuit terminal 20 is installed in the housing 10, or it can also be detected from the positioning hole 114 whether the short-circuit terminal 20 is misaligned relative to the first body 11.
[0120] As Figure 5 shown, in the Y-axis direction, the positioning hole 114 is located between the first limiting structure 112 and the first limiting hole 113.
[0121] As Figure 7 shown, in an embodiment, a through hole 202 is provided on the short-circuit terminal 20. The through hole 202 penetrates the short-circuit terminal 20 along the Z-axis direction; in the Z-axis direction, the through hole 202 overlaps with the positioning hole 114 of the housing 1. During assembly, the positioning block of the fixture can also pass through the through hole 202, so as to realize the positioning of the short-circuit terminal 20.
[0122] After assembly, the positioning block of the fixture withdraws from the through hole 202 and the positioning hole 114. At this time, in the Z-axis direction, the through hole 202 and the positioning hole 114 remain in an overlapping state. Moreover, in the Z-axis direction, the overlap of the through hole 202 and the positioning hole 114 indicates that the short-circuit terminal 20 is installed in place. At this time, the relative position of the short-circuit terminal 20 and the first body 11 meets the requirements. Subsequently, it can be determined whether the short-circuit terminal 20 is installed in place by detecting the relative position of the positioning hole 114 and the through hole 202.
[0123] Among them, "in the Z-axis direction, the through hole 202 and the positioning hole 114 of the housing 1 overlap" may mean that in the orthographic projection on a plane perpendicular to the Z-axis (defined as the first plane), at least a part of the projection of the through hole 202 coincides with the projection of the positioning hole 114.
[0124] In the orthographic projection on the first plane, at least a part of the projection of the through hole 202 coincides with the projection of the positioning hole 114, which can be any one of the following scenarios: Scenario 1, in the orthographic projection on the first plane, the projection of the through hole 202 is completely located within the projection of the positioning hole 114, and the projection of the positioning hole 114 is completely located within the projection of the through hole 202, that is, the projection of the positioning hole 114 and the projection of the through hole 202 completely coincide; Scenario 2, in the orthographic projection on the first plane, the projection of the through hole 202 is completely located within the projection of the positioning hole 114, but a part of the projection of the positioning hole 114 does not coincide with the projection of the through hole 202; Scenario 3, in the orthographic projection on the first plane, the projection of the positioning hole 114 is completely located within the projection of the through hole 202, but a part of the projection of the through hole 202 does not coincide with the projection of the through hole 202; Scenario 4, in the orthographic projection on the first plane, a part of the projections of the positioning hole 114 and the through hole 202 coincide, but a part of the projection of the positioning hole 114 does not coincide with the projection of the through hole 202, and a part of the projection of the through hole 202 does not coincide with the projection of the positioning hole 114.
[0125] In addition, the through hole 202 can be provided on the short-circuit board 7 and is located between the two mounting holes 201.
[0126] As Figure 5 shown, in one embodiment, a clamping hole 115 is provided on the first main body 11, and the clamping hole 115 is adapted to clamp the elastic card 301 of the second wiring terminal 300 located in the receiving cavity 3 (refer to Figure 6 , the structure of the second wiring terminal 300 can be the same as that of the first wiring terminal 200). The elastic card 301 means that the card 301 has elasticity. When the second wiring terminal 300 extends into the receiving cavity 3, the card 301 also extends into the receiving cavity 3 accordingly, and at this time, the card 301 undergoes elastic deformation. When the second wiring terminal 300 is electrically connected to the short-circuit terminal 20, the card 301 can move to the clamping hole 115, and at this time, the card 301 can reset and extend into the clamping hole 115.
[0127] During actual production, when the card 301 resets and extends into the clamping hole 115, the card 301 will impact the first main body 11, thereby generating a sound. When the operator hears this sound, it indicates that the second wiring terminal 300 is installed in place.
[0128] It should be understood that the snap hole 115 communicates with the receiving cavity 3. Among them, the snap hole 115 can be provided on the bottom surface of the receiving groove 13. Specifically, the snap hole 115 can be provided on the bottom surface of the third groove 133.
[0129] In one embodiment, in the Z-axis direction, the snap hole 115 can penetrate through to the second surface 116. Among them, in the Z-axis direction, the first surface 111 and the second surface 116 are arranged opposite to each other.
[0130] When the structure of the second terminal 300 is the same as that of the first terminal 200, the card 301 can be provided on the first wiring portion 5. The card 301 can be obliquely arranged, and along the direction from the first wiring portion 5 to the second wiring portion 6, the distance between the card 301 and the first wiring portion 5 gradually increases.
[0131] As Figure 5 shown, in one embodiment, the first main body 11 is provided with a first snap structure 117, and the first snap structure 117 is adapted to cooperate with the second snap structure on the bottom case 2, so that the first main body 11 and the bottom case 2 are snapped together. Among them, the second snap structure on the bottom case 2 and the third snap structure 118 on the first main body 11 can be the same. In addition, the third snap structure 118 is used for snap connection and cooperation with the fourth snap structure on the bottom case 2, and the structure of the fourth snap structure can be the same as that of the first snap structure 117. In addition, the structural settings of the first snap structure 117 and the second snap structure can both be prior arts.
[0132] As Figure 5 shown, in one embodiment, the second surface 116 is provided with an avoidance hole 119, and the avoidance hole 119 penetrates through to the first surface 111 along the Z axis, that is, the avoidance hole 119 completely penetrates through the first main body 11 along the Z-axis direction. The avoidance hole 119 is adapted to avoid the second blocking structure of the bottom case 2, so that the second blocking structure can block the second terminal 300 located in the receiving cavity 3 to prevent the second terminal 300 from exiting the receiving cavity 3.
[0133] Among them, the structure of the second terminal 300 can be the same as that of the first terminal 200, the structure of the second blocking structure can be the same as that of the first blocking structure 122, the way the second blocking structure blocks the second terminal 300 can also be the same as the way the first blocking structure 122 blocks the first terminal 200, and the structure of the avoidance hole 119 can also be the same as that of the above window 4.
[0134] In addition, in one embodiment, in the Y-axis direction, the avoidance hole 119, the snap hole 115, and the first connecting portion 12 are sequentially arranged at intervals.
[0135] The avoidance hole 119 forms an opening on the bottom surface of the third groove 133. At this time, a part of the avoidance hole 119 coincides with the third groove 133.
[0136] As Figure 5 shown, in one embodiment, in the Y-axis direction, the avoidance hole 119 and the first connecting portion 12 are arranged at intervals.
[0137] As Figure 5 shown, in one embodiment, the number of the avoidance holes 119 is multiple, and the avoidance holes 119 are arranged at intervals in sequence along the X-axis direction. Among them, the avoidance holes 119 and the third grooves 133 are in one-to-one correspondence, and one avoidance hole 119 forms an opening on the bottom surface of the corresponding third groove 133.
[0138] At this time, the number of the second blocking structures can also be multiple, and the second blocking structures and the avoidance holes 119 are in one-to-one correspondence. One second blocking structure blocks the second wiring terminal 300 located in the third groove 133 corresponding to the avoidance hole 119 from the corresponding avoidance hole 119.
[0139] As Figure 5 shown, in one embodiment, a first avoidance groove 120 is further provided on the second surface 116. In the X-axis direction, the first avoidance groove 120 completely penetrates the first main body 11; the avoidance hole 119 forms a first opening on the bottom surface of the first avoidance groove 120; the first avoidance groove 120 is adapted to avoid the second connecting arm of the bottom case 2, and the second blocking structure is connected to the second connecting arm.
[0140] Among them, the bottom case 2 further has a second main body 21, and the second main body 21 is connected to the first main body 11 to enclose a receiving cavity 3. The second connecting arm is connected to the second main body 21, and at least a part of the second connecting arm can move relative to the second main body 21, thereby driving the second blocking structure to move. When the second connecting arm moves to a predetermined position, the second blocking structure can block the second wiring terminal 300 located in the receiving cavity 3 from the avoidance hole 119. After the housing 1 and the bottom case 2 are assembled, the second connecting arm can move into the first avoidance groove 120. In an achievable implementation manner, when the second connecting arm moves into the first avoidance groove 120, the second connecting arm can abut against the bottom surface of the first avoidance groove 120. At this time, the second connecting arm can be regarded as moving to the predetermined position.
[0141] The connection manner between the second main body 21 and the second connecting arm is the same as the connection manner between the first main body 11 and the first connecting arm 121. The implementation manner of at least a part of the second connecting arm moving relative to the second main body 21 is the same as the implementation manner of at least a part of the first connecting arm 121 moving relative to the first main body 11.
[0142] In one embodiment, the structures of the first body 11 and the second body 21 are the same. The second limiting structure on the bottom case 2 is the first limiting structure 112, the second limiting hole on the bottom case 2 is the first limiting hole 113, the groove structure on the bottom case 2 for forming the accommodation cavity 3 is the accommodation groove 13, and the window 4 on the bottom case 2 is the avoidance hole 119. Additionally, the second body 21 also has a clamping hole 115, and the clamping hole 115 is used for clamping the elastic card 301 of the first wiring terminal 200. Moreover, the second body 2 also has a first avoidance groove 120. Define the first avoidance groove 120 on the second body 2 as the second avoidance groove. After the housing 1 and the bottom case 2 are assembled, the first connecting arm 121 can move into the second avoidance groove. In an implementable embodiment, when the first connecting arm 121 moves into the second avoidance groove, the first connecting arm 121 can abut against the bottom surface of the second avoidance groove. At this time, the first connecting arm 121 can be regarded as moving to the resisting position.
[0143] As Figure 1 shown, in one embodiment, the bottom case 2 further includes a second connecting portion 22. The second connecting portion 22 is connected to the second body 21, and the structure of the second connecting portion 22 is the same as that of the first connecting portion 12. Among them, the above-mentioned second resisting structure and the second connecting arm both belong to a part of the second connecting portion 22.
[0144] As Figure 1 shown, when the first body 11 and the second body 21 are connected and enclosed to form the accommodation cavity 3, the connecting arm (i.e., the first connecting arm 121) of the first connecting portion 12 and the connecting arm (i.e., the second connecting arm) of the second connecting portion 22 are respectively located on different sides in the X-axis direction. That is, in the X-axis direction, the first connecting arm 121 and the second connecting arm are respectively located on different sides of the outer shell 10. Among them, define the area of the first body 11 for connecting the first connecting arm 121 as the first area, and the area of the second body 21 for connecting the second connecting arm as the second area. "In the X-axis direction, the first connecting arm 121 and the second connecting arm are respectively located on different sides of the outer shell 10" means that after the first body 11 and the second body 21 are connected and enclosed to form the accommodation cavity 3, in the X-axis direction, the first area and the second area are respectively located on different sides of the outer shell 10.
[0145] As Figure 1 shown, when the first body 11 and the second body 21 are connected and enclosed to form the accommodation cavity 3, in the Y-axis direction, the first connecting portion 12 and the second connecting portion 22 are arranged at intervals. In this way, the first connecting portion 12 can bind the bottom case 2 at one end, and the second connecting portion 22 can bind the housing 1 at the other end, so that the connection between the first body 11 and the second body 21 can be made more firm.
[0146] In one embodiment, in the Y-axis direction, the accommodating cavity 3 completely penetrates through the housing 10. After the housing 10 is assembled, the first groove 131 on the housing 1 and the third groove 133 on the bottom case 2 are opposite to each other in the Z-axis. These two grooves form a cavity structure (defined as the first cavity segment); the second groove 132 on the housing 1 and the second groove 132 on the bottom case 2 are opposite to each other in the Z-axis. These two grooves form a cavity structure (defined as the second cavity segment); the third groove 133 on the housing 1 and the first groove 131 on the bottom case 2 are opposite to each other in the Z-axis. These two grooves form a cavity structure (defined as the third cavity segment). The first cavity segment, the second cavity segment, and the third cavity segment are connected to form the accommodating cavity 3.
[0147] In addition, define the surface of the second main body 21 close to the first main body 11 as the third surface, and the accommodating groove 13 on the bottom case 2 is arranged on the third surface. "The first groove 131 on the housing 1 and the third groove 133 on the bottom case 2 are opposite to each other in the Z-axis" can mean that: in the positive projection on a plane perpendicular to the Z-axis, the projection of the opening of the first groove 131 on the housing 1 formed on the first surface 111 and the positive projection of the opening of the third groove 133 on the bottom case 2 on the third surface completely coincide.
[0148] "The second groove 132 on the housing 1 and the second groove 132 on the bottom case 2 are opposite to each other in the Z-axis" can mean that: in the positive projection on a plane perpendicular to the Z-axis, the projection of the opening of the second groove 132 on the housing 1 formed on the first surface 111 and the positive projection of the opening of the second groove 132 on the bottom case 2 on the third surface completely coincide.
[0149] "The third groove 133 on the housing 1 and the first groove 131 on the bottom case 2 are opposite to each other in the Z-axis" can mean that: in the positive projection on a plane perpendicular to the Z-axis, the projection of the opening of the third groove 133 on the housing 1 formed on the first surface 111 and the positive projection of the opening of the first groove 131 on the bottom case 2 on the third surface completely coincide.
[0150] As Figure 5 and Figure 6 shown, in one embodiment, the first main body 11 is further provided with a third limiting structure 14, and the third limiting structure 14 is used to cooperate with the fourth limiting structure 302 on the wiring terminal to limit the relative position of the wiring terminal and the first main body 11. In Figure 5 the shown force application, the third limiting structure 14 is used to cooperate with the fourth limiting structure 302 on the second wiring terminal 300. Specifically, the third limiting structure 14 includes a limiting groove, and the fourth limiting structure 302 includes a limiting protrusion. Through the cooperation of the limiting groove and the limiting protrusion, the cooperation between the third limiting structure 14 and the fourth limiting structure 302 can be achieved.
[0151] The limiting groove of the third limiting structure 14 may be provided on the bottom surface of the third groove 133, and the limiting groove forms a fourth opening on the second end surface 16. When the second wiring terminal 300 is inserted into the third groove 133 from the third opening, the fourth limiting structure 302 can be inserted into the limiting groove from the fourth opening. Among them, the fourth limiting structure 302 may be provided on the first wiring portion 5. In addition, when the number of the third grooves 133 is multiple, at least one bottom surface of at least one third groove 133 is provided with at least one third limiting structure 14. Preferably, when the number of the third grooves 133 is multiple, one bottom surface of one third groove 133 is provided with one third limiting structure 14.
[0152] It should be understood that when the first main body 11 and the second main body 21 have the same structure, and the first wiring terminal 200 and the second wiring terminal 300 have the same structure, the third limiting structure 14 on the second main body 21 can cooperate with the fourth limiting structure 302 on the first wiring terminal 200.
[0153] In addition, after the first main body 11 and the second main body 21 are assembled, an outer shell main body is formed, and the short-circuit terminal 20, the first wiring terminal 200, and the second wiring terminal 300 are all installed in the outer shell main body.
