[0027] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figures 1 to 8 The present invention will be described in detail with reference to specific embodiments, but this is not intended to limit the present invention. Example

[0028] As attached Figures 1 to 8 As shown, a novel cross-regional connection terminal structure includes a housing 1, a metal spring 2, and a terminal 3;

[0029] The housing 1 has a boss 11; the metal spring 2 includes a body 21, a through hole 22, and a contact 23; the through hole 22 is located on the body 21, and the contacts 23 are located on both sides of the body 21; the terminal 3 is fixed in the middle of the housing 1; the metal spring 2 is located on the housing 1; the through hole 22 matches the boss 11; the through hole 22 is fitted onto the boss 11; the contacts 23 on both sides of the body 1 contact the terminals 3 on both sides of the housing 1. The metal spring 2 is flat and elongated; there is at least one metal spring 2; there are at least two through holes 22; the contacts 23 are L-shaped bends, with the tail ends of the contacts 23 bent upwards. The boss 11 is a protruding part on the top of the housing 1; there are at least two bosses 11. After the through hole 22 is fitted onto the boss 11, the boss 11 is flattened by riveting, and the through hole 22 is tightly connected and fixed to the boss 11. The housing 1 is made of plastic and has a strip-shaped structure. The housing 1 includes an upper component 12 and a lower component 13, with a boss 11 on the top surface of the upper component 12. The bottom surface of the lower component 13 has a retaining strip 131, which engages with each other, thus ensuring the bottom surfaces of the two lower components 13 are flush. Terminals 3 are inserted into the housing 1, and the ends of the upper component 12 and lower component 13 are fastened and fixed. Both ends of the terminals 3 are bent outwards. The body 21 has at least two sets of contacts 23 on each side; a through hole 22 is located between the two sets of contacts 23. A cutting line 231 is provided near the body 21 on each contact 23; the cutting line 231 is used by a cutting tool to cut and splice the contacts 23. A metal spring 2 is used to contact the terminals 3 on both sides of the housing 1 through the contacts 23, connecting the terminals 3 in the areas on both sides of the housing 1.

[0030] As attached Figures 1 to 8 As shown, a novel cross-regional connection terminal structure is described, with the following specific implementation: The housing 1 has multiple protrusions 11, the shape of which is not limited and can be rhomboid, cylindrical, square, etc. The metal spring 2 has multiple through holes 22, the shape of which is not limited and can be rhomboid, cylindrical, square, etc. The metal spring 2 has multiple contacts 23, the position and number of which can be adjusted according to actual application requirements. The through holes 22 match the protrusions 11; the through holes 22 are fitted onto the protrusions 11; then, the protrusions 11 are flattened by a riveting process, making the metal spring 2 and the housing 1 tightly joined together. The contacts 23 on the metal spring 2 contact the terminals on both sides of the housing to achieve cross-regional terminal connection and conduction. The different distributions of the metal contacts achieve cross-regional terminal connection and conduction, realizing signal transmission or shielding. This achieves the objective of this novel structure.

Therefore, the disclosed embodiments described above are merely illustrative and not the only ones. All modifications within the scope of this utility model or its equivalents are included in this utility model.
