[0029] Example:

[0030] Reference Figures 1-6A signal connector includes a male end 1 and a female end 2 that matches the male end 1. During use, the female end 2 is inserted into the male end 1 to achieve signal connection. The connector also includes at least two sets of guide blocks 202, both fixedly disposed on one outer wall of the female end 2. A guide groove 102 corresponding to the guide blocks 202 is formed on one inner wall of the male end 1. Here, four sets of guide blocks 202 are provided, one on each outer wall of the female end 2. Similarly, four sets of guide grooves 102 are formed on each inner wall of the male end 1, corresponding one to each guide block 202. The width of one set of the two sets of guide blocks 202 is greater than the width of the other set, that is, the two sets of guide blocks 202 have different widths. During use, by fixing the guide blocks 202 of different widths on the outer wall of the female end 2 and forming the guide grooves 102 corresponding to the guide blocks 202 on the inner wall of the male end 1, the female end 2 and the male end 1 can be reliably and correctly connected, thereby preventing errors in connection, improving the use effect, and stabilizing the signal.

A limiting groove 101 is provided in the male end 1, and the end of the male terminal away from the heightened seat 3 is slid into the limiting groove 101 to limit the male terminal, facilitate the connection between the female end 2 and the male end 1, and improve the use effect. When in use, by providing a heightened seat 3 at the bottom of the male end 1, the extended male terminal can be protected, and the safety of use is improved. Moreover, when the male terminal is slid into the limiting groove 101, the deflection of the male terminal can be reduced, and the connection of the female end 2 is facilitated, thereby improving the use experience.

[0032] Reference Figure 6 A material reduction groove is opened in the elevated seat 3, and multiple groups of mounting grooves 301 are opened at the bottom of the material reduction groove.
