The male terminal provided by the utility model effectively solves the problem that the shell 2 and the contact part 1 are easily separated in the prior art, resulting in poor stability of the male terminal.

[0031] In some embodiments, as shown in Figures 1 to 3 The shell 2 has a receiving cavity 23, and a first assembly hole 24 and a second assembly hole 25 that are in communication with the receiving cavity 23. The contact main body 12 is located in the receiving cavity 23, so that the shell 2 can protect the contact main body 12. The first assembly hole 24 and the first mounting hole 121 are in communication, and the second assembly hole 25 and the second mounting hole 122 are in communication. The first connecting structure 21 is connected to the inner wall of the first assembly hole 24, and the second connecting structure 22 is connected to the inner wall of the second assembly hole 25. In this way, the first connecting structure 21 and the second connecting structure 22 are connected to the shell 2.

[0032] Specifically, the first assembly hole 24 and the second assembly hole 25 are arranged at the two ends of the shell 2 in a direction perpendicular to the insertion direction of the contact terminal 11.

[0033] In the embodiment, as shown in Figure 3 The first connecting structure 21 includes a first bent plate 211 and a second bent plate 212. The first bent plate 211 and the second bent plate 212 are connected to the two inner walls of the first assembly hole 24, respectively, and extend towards the receiving cavity 23. The first bent plate 211 and the second bent plate 212 are inserted into the first mounting hole 121 and connected to the two inner walls of the first mounting hole 121, respectively. In this way, the shell 2 and the contact main body 12 can be connected by the first bent plate 211 and the second bent plate 212.

This arrangement makes the force on the outer casing 2 more uniform, avoiding damage to the outer casing 2 due to concentrated force in certain areas.

[0037] Furthermore, the two sides of the contact body 12 have symmetrically arranged first clearance grooves 123 and second clearance grooves, wherein the position of the first clearance groove 123 corresponds to the position of the first spring piece 28. In this way, when the first spring piece 28 is deformed by force, the first clearance groove 123 can play a clearance role. Similarly, the position of the second clearance groove corresponds to the position of the second spring piece 29, so that when the second spring piece 29 is deformed by force, the second clearance groove can play a clearance role.

[0038] In this embodiment, the wire-insulating part 3 includes a first wire-insulating segment 31 and a second wire-insulating segment 32 that are connected to each other. The first wire-insulating segment 31 is connected to the contact body 12 so that after the wire passes through the contact body 12, it can directly enter the first wire-insulating segment 31. The first wire-insulating segment 31 and the second wire-insulating segment 32 can protect and fix the wire.

By providing wire pressing grooves 311, the first coiled wire segment 31 and the second coiled wire segment 32 can improve the friction of the wire after riveting.

[0040] Specifically, there are multiple wire grooves 311, which are spaced apart along the insertion direction of the contact terminal 11, thereby further improving the friction of the wire.

[0041] The utility model also provides a vehicle connector which comprises a female terminal and the male terminal in the above scheme, and the male terminal and the female terminal are plugged together. The vehicle connector of the utility model has the first connecting structure 21 connected with the inner wall of the first mounting hole 121 and the second connecting structure 22 connected with the inner wall of the second mounting hole 122, so that the connecting area of the shell 2 and the contact main body 12 is increased, the connecting strength of the shell 2 and the contact main body 12 is enhanced, and when the contact part 1 is subjected to a force, the shell 2 and the contact part 1 cannot be separated, and the stability of the male terminal is further improved. Meanwhile, the wire wrapping part 3 is connected with the contact main body 12, so that the wire wrapping part 3 can be riveted and pressed to prevent the wire from moving.

[0042] Obviously, the above embodiments of the utility model are only examples for clearly illustrating the utility model, and are not intended to limit the embodiments of the utility model. For ordinary skilled in the art, other different forms of changes or variations can be made on the basis of the above description. All the embodiments need not be enumerated here.
