Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of automotive connection terminal equipment, specifically to a waterproof automotive connection terminal. Background Technology
[0002] Automotive connectors are components frequently encountered by electronic engineers. Their function is quite simple: to bridge gaps in circuits or between isolated circuits, allowing current to flow and enabling the circuit to perform its intended function. Automotive connectors come in a wide variety of forms and structures, but they are primarily composed of four basic structural components: contacts, housing (depending on the type), insulator, and accessories. In the industry, they are commonly referred to as sheaths, connectors, or plastic shells.
[0003] Automobile manufacturing uses a large number of connection terminals. Due to their different locations, some terminals are exposed to the outside. When the car is in motion, it will encounter rainwater. If the waterproof sealing of the terminals is poor, rainwater will seep in and cause short circuits. Moreover, the connection structure of most terminals is inconvenient to use. Utility Model Content
