[0002] The electrode terminal needs to be connected to a circuit board (such as a PCB) through bolts. When manually connecting, the electrode terminal can be pressed by hand to assist the alignment of the bolt holes on the electrode terminal and the bolt holes on the circuit board. However, with the improvement of the automation level, there is an urgent need for a device that can assist in aligning the electrode terminals on the automatic production line. Summary of the Utility Model
[0003] In order to meet the needs of automated production, on the one hand, the utility model provides an electrode terminal fixing seat, comprising:
[0004] A seat body, on the top of which there are a threaded connection hole and a positioning slot;
[0005] The threaded connection hole is used for threaded connection with a threaded fastener;
[0006] The positioning slot is used for clamping a block on the electrode terminal and making the threaded fastener through hole on the electrode terminal coaxial with the threaded connection hole;
[0007] At the bottom of the seat body, there is a positioning structure coaxial with the threaded connection hole, and the positioning structure is used for coaxially connecting the positioning part of the assembly member, and the positioning part of the assembly member is coaxial with the threaded fastener through hole on the circuit board.
[0008] The circuit board needs to be fixedly installed on a chassis, a water-cooling plate or other assembly members. In the automatic production line, positioning plug-in connectors are respectively provided to position the circuit board, the chassis, the water-cooling plate or other assembly members. After separate positioning, the hole positions on the circuit board can be aligned with the hole positions on the chassis, the water-cooling plate or other assembly members.
[0009] In the utility model, the positioning structure at the bottom of the seat body is used to connect the electrode terminal fixing seat to the positioning part of the chassis, the water-cooling plate or other assembly members. Those skilled in the art can ensure the alignment of the positioning part and the threaded fastener through hole on the circuit board through relevant dimension design. Then the positioning structure can be aligned with the threaded fastener through hole on the circuit board. Since the positioning structure is coaxial with the threaded connection hole at the top of the seat body, the threaded connection hole at the top of the seat body can be aligned with the threaded fastener through hole on the circuit board. Combined with the positioning effect of the positioning slot at the top of the seat body on the electrode terminal, it can ensure that the threaded fastener through hole on the electrode terminal is aligned with the threaded fastener through hole on the circuit board, thus replacing manual auxiliary positioning and meeting the needs of automated production.
[0010] Further, the positioning structure is a positioning jack or a positioning pin.

[0019] Furthermore, the included angle between the bent portion and the vertical wall is 90°. It is convenient to press the tail of the electrode terminal and can press the tail of the electrode terminal more tightly.
[0020] Further, a metal nut is fixedly connected in the threaded connection hole, and the metal nut is coaxial with the threaded connection hole.

[0022] Further, the bottom of the seat body is cylindrical, and the top of the seat body is flat.
[0023] The cylindrical bottom can reduce the material consumption and the occupied space, and the flat top can better support the circuit board.

[0028] Further, the assembly is arranged on the lower surface of the circuit board, and the threaded fastener sequentially passes through the circuit board, the electrode terminal and the electrode terminal fixing seat. This facilitates the automatic tightening of the threaded fastener through the electrode terminal fixing seat on the automatic production line.
