The outer surface of the stopper 29 slides on the inner wall of the groove rod 24. When using the terminal block for wiring, first push the U-shaped block 22 through the rotating shaft 21 to rotate away from the top of the terminal shell 4 to facilitate the control of the button at the top of the terminal shell 4. After the terminal block is used, the U-shaped block 22 can be pushed through the rotating shaft on one side of the terminal shell 4 The U-shaped block 22 is rotated so that one end of the protruding rod 23 is inserted into the rectangular groove 25 in the groove rod 24.
