[0030] This embodiment provides an R / A board-end high-current connector, which realizes stable installation and precise positioning of the high-power terminal 11, the signal terminal 12 and the low-power terminal 13. The terminal boss, the terminal clamping point and the elastic force arm cooperate with the connector housing 10, thereby improving the retention force of the high-power terminal 11, the signal terminal 12 and the low-power terminal 13 in the connector housing 10, thereby avoiding damage to the board-end high-current connector during actual use and improving the service life of the board-end high-current connector.

[0031] Combine Figures 1 to 6 As shown, the R / A board-end high-current connector of this embodiment includes a connector housing 10, a high-power terminal 11, a signal terminal 12 and a low-power terminal 13. The high-power terminal 11, the signal terminal 12 and the low-power terminal 13 are stably and accurately installed in the connector housing 10 to form a board-end high-current connector.

[0032] In this embodiment, a PCB board 60 is further included, and a high-current connector at the R / A board end is welded on the PCB board 60 to achieve signal and current control.

[0033] Specifically, the connector housing 10 of this embodiment is provided with a first card slot 101, a second card slot 102 and a third card slot 103, the high-power terminal 11 is installed in the first card slot 101, the signal terminal 12 is installed in the second card slot 102, and the low-power terminal 13 is installed in the third card slot 103.

[0034] Combine Figure 3 and Figure 4As shown, the high-power terminal 11 of this embodiment is provided with a high-power terminal 11 boss and a high-power terminal 11 clamping point. The high-power terminal 11 boss cooperates with the positioning groove 50 on the connector housing 10 to prevent the high-power terminal 11 from rotating relative to the connector housing 10 when an external force is applied. The high-power terminal 11 clamping point is in an interference fit with the connector housing 10 to provide a retaining force between the high-power terminal 11 and the connector housing 10.

[0035] In this embodiment, a high-power terminal 11 is also provided with an elastic force arm of the high-power terminal 11, which cooperates with the anti-retraction slot 40 on the connector housing 10 to provide a retaining force between the high-power terminal 11 and the connector housing 10. A guide groove 20 is provided in the first slot 101 to avoid fatigue of the elastic force arm of the high-power terminal 11 when the high-power terminal 11 is interference fit with the connector housing 10.

[0036] Combine Figure 3 and Figure 5 As shown, the plastic body of the signal terminal 12 of this embodiment is provided with a retaining elastic force arm 121 and a positioning boss 122. The retaining elastic force arm 121 limits the signal terminal 12 from being retracted in the connector housing 10, and the positioning boss 122 limits the signal terminal 12 from rotating in the housing when subjected to external force. A positioning convex rib 30 is provided in the second card slot 102, and the signal terminal 12 and the positioning convex rib 30 are in an interference fit to provide a holding force between the signal terminal 12 and the connector housing 10.

The low-power terminal boss 131 and the low-power terminal clamping point 132 are both in interference fit with the connector housing 10 to provide a retaining force between the low-power terminal 13 and the connector housing 10.

[0038] In this embodiment, a lateral positioning boss is further provided on the low-power terminal 13 , and the lateral positioning boss can effectively prevent the low-power terminal 13 from being installed incorrectly.

[0039] In this embodiment, there are multiple third slots 103 and they are evenly spaced in the connector housing 10. A creepage distance groove 70 is hollowed out at the bottom of the connector housing 10 to increase the creepage distance between adjacent terminals, so that the adjacent low-power terminals 13 can meet the creepage distance corresponding to the rated voltage and meet the electrical performance requirements of the low-power terminals 13 when in use.
