[0020] Embodiment: A pin fixing structure includes an insulating body 1 and a pin terminal 2. The insulating body 1 is formed with a plug hole 11 on the inner side. The plug hole 11 is provided with an inner convex stopper that can be elastically deformed along its radial direction. One end of the pin terminal 2 is a mounting seat 21, and the other end of the pin terminal 2 is a conductive pin 22 with a diameter smaller than the mounting seat 21. The outer wall of the conductive pin 22 is provided with a conical outer convex stop ring 23 with an outer diameter of one end larger than that of the other end. The conductive pin 22 of the pin terminal 2 can be inserted from one end toward the other end. Inserted into the plug hole 11 of the insulating body 1, and the inner convex stopper in the plug hole 11 stops on the end surface of the conical outer convex stop ring 23 with a larger diameter of the pin terminal 2, the mounting seat 21 at one end of the pin terminal 2 stops on the end surface of one end of the insulating body 1, an eccentric first anti-rotation plug-in structure is provided on one end of the insulating body 1, and an eccentric second anti-rotation plug-in structure is provided on the mounting seat 21 of the pin terminal 2. The first anti-rotation plug-in structure and the second anti-rotation plug-in structure are plugged into each other so that the pin terminal 2 and the insulating body 1 are stopped and positioned in the circumferential direction.
[0021] When the conductive pin 22 of the pin terminal 2 is inserted into the plug hole 11 of the insulating body 1 for a certain distance, the end face of one end of the insulating body 1 blocks the surface of the mounting seat 21 at one end of the pin terminal 2, preventing the conductive pin 22 from continuing to move forward. At this time, the conical convex retaining ring 23 on the conductive pin 22 just passes the inward convex stopper in the pin hole, and the inward convex stopper in the pin hole elastically resets and blocks one end of the conical convex retaining ring 23, thereby stopping the pin terminal 2 axially in position. At the same time, the first anti-rotation plug-in structure on one end of the insulating body 1 and the second anti-rotation plug-in structure on the mounting seat 21 of the pin terminal 2 form a plug-in connection, realizing the circumferential stop positioning of the pin terminal 2 and the insulating body 1. The above structure realizes the stable positioning of the pin terminal 2 on the insulating body 1, and the structure of the insulating body 1 and the pin terminal 2 is simple and easy to assemble. After assembly, the pin terminal 2 is stably positioned.
[0022] The plug-in hole 11 on the inner side of the insulating body 1 is a stepped hole with an inner diameter at one end smaller than that at the other end. The inwardly convex stopper includes a plurality of cantilever structures 12 provided on the stepped surface between the two ends of the plug-in hole 11. The cantilever structure 12 extends a set distance toward the other end of the plug-in hole 11, and a card point 13 is formed at the end of the cantilever structure 12, which protrudes toward the center line of the plug-in hole 11. When the conductive pin 22 of the pin terminal 2 is inserted, the conical protruding stop ring 23 on the conductive pin 22 can force the cantilever structure 12 to swing elastically to avoid it. When the conical protruding stop ring 23 on the conductive pin 22 passes over the free end of the cantilever structure 12, the card point 13 at the free end of the cantilever structure 12 is elastically reset along with the cantilever structure 12 and stops on the end surface of the conical protruding stop ring 23 of the pin terminal 2 with a larger diameter.
[0023] The inward convex stopper utilizes the elastic swing of the cantilever structure 12 to realize the radial elastic movement of its end clamping point 13 in the plug-in hole 11. The above structure is simple, and the cantilever structure 12 can be integrally formed in the plug-in hole 11 of the insulating body 1. In addition, the inward convex stopper can also be composed of a slider radially slidably installed on the side wall of the insulating body 1 and an elastic member that provides radial elastic force to the slider. This is an equivalent replacement that can be easily thought of by technical personnel in this field based on this application, and it also falls within the scope of protection of this application.
[0024] A positioning post 24 is further provided between the conductive pin 22 and the mounting seat 21. The positioning post 24 is directly between the conductive pin 22 and the mounting seat 21. The positioning post 24 is inserted into the end with a smaller diameter of the plug hole 11. The positioning post 24 and the conductive pin 22 are transitionally connected through a chamfered slope 25. The card point 13 on the free end of the cantilever structure 12 can be accommodated in the annular gap formed between the conical convex retaining ring 23 and the positioning post 24, and one end of the card point 13 contacts the chamfered slope between the positioning post 24 and the conductive pin 22 through the slope, and the other end of the card point 13 contacts the end face of the conical convex retaining ring 23 through a plane. A slope 25 is formed at one end of the card point 13, and a straight surface is formed at the other end. When it contacts the conical convex retaining ring 23, it will not get stuck. The contact between the slopes can smoothly slide relative to each other while the cantilever structure 12 elastically swings to avoid it. After the conical convex retaining ring 23 passes over the card point 13, as the cantilever structure 12 elastically resets, the card point 13 is just accommodated in the space formed between the positioning column 24 and the conical convex retaining ring 23. The space matches the shape of the card point 13. The slope of the card point 13 contacts the chamfered slope of the positioning column 24, and the chamfered slope of the positioning column 24 supports the slope of the card point 13 to prevent the card point 13 from being compressed and broken.
[0025] The outer circumference of the positioning post 24 of the pin terminal 2 is provided with at least one circular interference rib 26. This interference rib 26 forms an interference fit with the inner side surface of the smaller diameter end of the insertion hole 11. The interference rib 26 closely contacts the inner wall of the insertion hole 11 of the insulating body 1, thereby eliminating any gap between the pin terminal 2 and the insertion hole 11 of the insulating body 1 and preventing the conductive pin 22 from dangling within the insertion hole 11 of the insulating body 1.
[0026] The positioning post 24 is provided with two circles of interference ribs 26 on its outer circumference, one at each axial end of the positioning post 24. The two circles of interference ribs 26 further prevent the conductive pin 22 from shaking or oscillating in the insertion hole 11 of the insulating body 1.
[0027] The first anti-rotation plug-in structure is a boss 14 provided on one end of the insulating body 1, and the second anti-rotation plug-in structure is a groove 27 provided on the end surface of the mounting base 21. The bosses 14 are inserted into the grooves 27 in a one-to-one correspondence. When the pin terminal 2 is plugged into the insulating body 1, the bosses 14 automatically insert into the grooves 27, achieving the opposite insertion. This opposite insertion structure effectively limits the relative rotation of the pin terminal 2 and the insulating body 1 in the circumferential direction, while also enhancing the connection stability between the two and preventing shaking.
[0028] The bosses 14 are long strip bosses 14 symmetrically arranged on both sides of one end of the insulating body 1, and the grooves 27 are notches symmetrically arranged on the end surface of the mounting seat 21. The above structure is easy to manufacture, and the plug-in structure is strong and not easy to be damaged.
[0029] The inner edge of the opening end of the groove 27 and the outer edge of the boss 14 are both provided with a chamfered structure. The chamfer is used to avoid interference between the edge of the boss 14 and the edge of the groove 27 during plugging, so that the plug-in structure can be processed more tightly.
[0030] A sleeve 15 is fixedly provided on the outer side of one end of the insulating body 1, and a ring-shaped mounting groove is formed between the sleeve 15 and the outer side wall of one end of the insulating body 1. The inner side wall of the bottom of the mounting groove is connected to the outer side wall of one end of the insulating body 1 by a plurality of radially extending fixing ribs 16.
