Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field related to wiring terminals, and in particular to a wiring terminal which is convenient for distinguishing between positive and negative pole connections. Background Art

[0002] With the rapid development of the new energy market, an increasing number of high-current terminal blocks are being used in various electrical connection products. Existing terminal blocks consist of a main body shell, an inner liner seat that is inserted into the main body shell and connected to it via screws, and a metal guide bar mounted on the inner liner seat. Because the exposed lengths of the guide bar on the inner liner seat are different at both ends, when the inner liner seat is inserted into the outer shell, one end must be inserted. During assembly, the terminal blocks are often inserted incorrectly due to employee negligence, resulting in rework and affecting assembly efficiency. Furthermore, many terminal blocks on the market do not distinguish between positive and negative poles, or the distinction is unclear, leading to incorrect wiring. Utility Model Content

[0003] In order to overcome the existing technical defects and solve at least one of the above-mentioned technical problems, the purpose of the present invention is to provide a connection terminal that is convenient for distinguishing between positive and negative poles to solve the above-mentioned technical problems.

[0004] The technical solutions adopted by the present invention to solve the technical problems are as follows:

[0005] According to one aspect of the present invention, a terminal block is designed to facilitate distinguishing between positive and negative pole connections, including: a main body shell, an inner liner seat plugged into a socket on the main body shell, and a guide bar arranged on the inner liner seat, each of the two ends of the guide bar is provided with a crimping screw, the lower end of the crimping screw passes through the through hole on the guide bar and engages with the inner liner seat thread, a wedge-shaped card block is provided on the inner liner seat, the wedge-shaped card block is engaged with the card groove on the side wall of the socket, and when the inner liner seat is reversely inserted into the socket, the end face of the wedge-shaped card block abuts against the end face of the main body shell.

[0006] By adopting the above technical solution, a wedge-shaped block is set on the inner liner seat, and a slot is set in the socket of the main body shell. The wedge-shaped block cooperates with the slot to realize the clamping connection between the inner liner seat and the main body shell. This can improve the assembly efficiency of the terminal block compared to the screw connection. In addition, when the inner liner seat is inserted into the socket in reverse, the end face of the wedge-shaped block abuts against the end face of the main body shell, serving as an anti-reverse insertion reminder, which can prevent reverse plug-in assembly, eliminate rework, and further improve the assembly efficiency of the terminal block.

[0007] In order to better solve the above technical defects, the present invention also has a better technical solution:

[0008] In some embodiments, two inner liner seats are provided and have different colors. A cross portion and a straight portion are provided at the right end of the main body shell. One of the two inner liner seats corresponds to the cross portion on the left and right, and the other corresponds to the straight portion on the left and right. This terminal block is used in equipment such as a power supply cabinet, a charging cabinet, or a control cabinet. During installation, the right end of the main body shell is inserted into the interior through the through hole on the power supply cabinet, the charging cabinet, or the control cabinet and fixed to the waterproof shell to achieve installation. The left end of the main body shell is on the outside. By providing a cross portion and a straight portion at the right end of the main body shell, it can be determined which of the right ends of the two guide bars is connected to the live wire and which is connected to the neutral wire. By setting the two inner liner seats to two colors, it is convenient to distinguish which of the left ends of the guide bars on the two inner liner seats is used to connect to the live wire and which is used to connect to the neutral wire, thereby avoiding reverse connection of the live and neutral wires.

[0009] In some embodiments, a limiting groove is provided at the right end of the main body shell. When the wedge-shaped block is engaged with the groove, the right end of the inner liner seat is placed in the limiting groove, and the limiting groove limits the rightward movement of the inner liner seat.

[0010] In some embodiments, the left and right ends of the main body housing are each provided with a partition separating the inner container seat from the guide bar. The ends of the partitions are provided with reserved spacer insertion slots. When the right ends of the two guide bars are connected to relatively long cable lugs, the reserved spacer insertion slots allow for the insertion of insulating spacers, preventing the two cable lugs from colliding or causing breakdown due to excessive current.

[0011] In some embodiments, the inner liner seat is sleeved with an inner liner sealing ring that is in sealing contact with the side wall of the socket, thereby achieving a sealing and waterproof effect.

[0012] In some embodiments, a main body sealing ring is sleeved on the right end of the main body shell.

[0013] In some embodiments, a glue injection groove is provided at the right end of the main body shell above the guide bar, and glue can be injected at the guide bar position through the glue injection groove to improve the sealing and waterproof effect.

[0014] In some embodiments, a sealing gasket is provided on the left side of the main body shell, and the sealing gasket can improve the waterproof effect of the installation position of the main body shell. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
