[0045] In some embodiments, the cover body 30 may include a first covering portion 31 and a second covering portion 32. The first covering portion 31 may be arranged roughly parallel to the end wall 11. One end of the second covering portion 32 is connected to the first covering portion 31 and extends downward in a direction perpendicular to the first covering portion 31. When the cover body 30 covers the first opening 15, the second covering portion 32 may be connected to the first side wall 12. A receiving cavity 33 having a third opening 331 is defined between the first covering portion 31 and the second covering portion 32. The receiving cavity 33 can be assembled with the second cavity 10b to form a receiving space for the terminal assembly.
