[0027] Among them, the thickness of the connection end of the connection block 32 and the carbon brush 1 is smaller than the thickness of the end where the connection port 321 is located, the small thickness of the connection end is convenient for connecting with the carbon brush 1, does not occupy space, and is convenient for locking, and the thickness of the opening end of the connection port 321 is relatively thick, which can adapt to a larger diameter of the connection port 321, so as to meet the connection requirements of cables with a larger diameter range.

[0028] On the basis of the above embodiment, as shown in Figures 2-3 The limit rib 5 is further fixed in the connection box 2, and the limit rib 5 abuts against the connection block 32. At the same time, the limit rib 5 is fixed with a guide sliding block 51 on the other side of the connection block 32, a guide sliding track 52 matched with the guide sliding block 51 is formed on the inner wall of the connection box 2, the guide sliding block 51 can move towards or away from the connection block 32 along the guide sliding track 52, the guide sliding block 51 has two, a connecting bridge 53 is fixed between the two guide sliding blocks 51, a strip-shaped hole 54 parallel to the guide sliding track 52 is formed on the side wall of the connection box 2, a drive screw 55 is fixed on the connecting bridge 53, the other end of the drive screw 55 penetrates out of the strip-shaped hole 54 and can slide in the strip-shaped hole 54 along the length direction and is locked by a limiting nut 56.
