[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of terminal blocks, in particular to a small terminal block. Background Art

[0002] With the development of electronic devices towards smaller, lighter and more portable directions, the demand for small terminal blocks used to connect circuit boards and other electrical components is increasing day by day. Most of the common small terminal blocks on the market currently use the cooperation of screw holes and studs to fix wires, that is, the wires are inserted into the insertion holes of the terminal block from the side, and the studs at the top are used to lock the wires to ensure stable electrical connection. Although this design can provide reliable connection, there are some obvious disadvantages in the actual application process. First of all, due to the small size of the studs, operators need high precision and patience when tightening the screws, which will greatly reduce work efficiency. Secondly, the traditional cooperation method of screw holes and studs requires tightening the screws manually one by one, which is a time-consuming process and not suitable for quick installation scenarios. And if the studs are not locked correctly, it may lead to poor contact or looseness, thus affecting the performance and safety of the entire electrical system.

[0034] As Figures 1-6 shown, the embodiment of the present invention provides a small-sized terminal block.

[0035] A small terminal block, comprising an insulating body 1, a metal connecting piece 2 and a pressing piece 3. An accommodating cavity 4 is arranged inside the insulating body 1. A guiding groove 41 and a through hole 42 are respectively formed at the upper and lower ends of the accommodating cavity 4. The lower end of the pressing piece 3 passes through the guiding groove 41. The metal connecting piece 2 is arranged inside the accommodating cavity 4. The metal connecting piece 2 includes an opening and closing part 21, a bending part 22 and a connecting part 23 which are connected in sequence. The pressing piece 3 is connected with the opening and closing part 21. A plugging hole 5 is arranged on the outer side of the insulating body 1. The plugging hole 5 is located on the outer side of the opening and closing part 21. A positioning block 43 is arranged inside the accommodating cavity 4. A first limiting groove 44 is arranged between the positioning block 43 and the inner wall of the accommodating cavity 4. A second limiting groove 45 is arranged at the lower end of the insulating body 1. The first limiting groove 44, the second limiting groove 45 and the through hole 42 are communicated in sequence. The bending part 22 is located inside the first limiting groove 44. The connecting part 23 is located inside the second limiting groove 45. A pin 24 is arranged at the bottom of the connecting part 23. The pin 24 passes through the through hole 42.

[0036] In the utility model, the guiding groove 41 and the through hole 42 are respectively formed at the upper and lower ends of the accommodating cavity 4. The lower end of the pressing piece 3 passes through the guiding groove 41. The metal connecting piece 2 is arranged inside the accommodating cavity 4. The metal connecting piece 2 includes the opening and closing part 21, the bending part 22 and the connecting part 23 which are connected in sequence. The pressing piece 3 is connected with the opening and closing part 21. The plugging hole 5 is arranged on the outer side of the insulating body 1. The plugging hole 5 is located on the outer side of the opening and closing part 21. When the pressing piece 3 is pressed down, the opening and closing part 21 deforms downward, and the opening and closing part 21 opens from the plugging hole 5. At this time, an electric wire can be inserted through the plugging hole 5. When the pressing piece 3 is released, the opening and closing part 21 rebounds and will clamp the electric wire. At the same time, through the first limiting groove 44 and the second limiting groove 45, the bending part and the connecting part 23 of the metal connecting piece 2 can be effectively limited, and the stability of plugging can be ensured in the small-sized accommodating cavity 4. The utility model has good operation convenience, high plugging efficiency and high overall structural stability.

[0037] It can be understood that due to the small space of the accommodating cavity 4, the metal connecting piece 2 is made of a metal alloy with certain flexibility, such as beryllium copper.

Specifically, the above settings effectively connect the opening and closing portion 21 and the pressing member 3. When the pressing member 3 is pressed, the inner wall of the top of the hanging hole 32 abuts against the top of the plug tongue 25, pushing the opening and closing portion 21 to displace downward and deform, so that external wires can be inserted from the insertion hole 5.

[0039] A small terminal block according to this embodiment, the through hole 42 is provided in the middle of the second limiting groove 45, the pin 24 is provided in the middle of the connecting portion 23, and the pin 24 is formed by bending the metal connecting piece 2.

When the stop portion 33 abuts against the stop plane 12, the pressing member 3 can no longer displace downward.

[0042] A small terminal block according to this embodiment, a groove 34 is provided at the top of the pressing member 3. Specifically, the groove 34 penetrates through the side walls at both ends of the pressing member 3. Due to the small size, the above setting allows the nail to be inserted into the groove 34 for pressing, which is more convenient.

Specifically, the above setting facilitates the introduction of the wire into the insertion hole 5.

[0044] A small terminal block according to this embodiment, the insulating body 1 includes a housing 14 and a cover plate 15. A plurality of positioning posts 16 are provided on the insulating body 1, and a plurality of first positioning holes 17 are provided on the cover plate 15. The positioning posts 16 and the first positioning holes 17 are arranged in one-to-one correspondence.

Specifically, since the size of the insulating body 1 is small, providing the chamfers 46 can make the assembly of each component more convenient and improve the efficiency.

[0047] As Figure 1 shown, it can be understood that in some other embodiments, the aperture, shape of the insertion hole 5, and the size of the accommodating cavity 4 can be appropriately adjusted according to actual needs. Figure 6

[0048] Although the 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 principles and spirit of the present invention.
