[0034] The first conductive part 222 of the connector protrudes from the housing 10; the second limiting part 224 at the end of the first conductive part 222 passes through the first limiting hole 213 on the first limiting part 211, and the second limiting part 224 can move in the first limiting hole 213. This design allows the first conductive part 222 to retract into the housing 10 when it is pressed, which prevents the first conductive part 222 from deforming and the PIN problem from occurring.

[0035] The application provides a novel connector, comprising a shell 10, and a first terminal 20 arranged in the shell 10; the first terminal 20 comprises a main body part 210, a first limiting part 211 extending from a side of the main body part 210, and a first conductive part 222 extending from a first end of the main body part 210; the first conductive part 222 protrudes from the shell 10; a second limiting part 224 is formed at the end of the first conductive part 222; the second limiting part 224 passes through a first limiting hole 213 of the first limiting part 211, and the second limiting part 224 can move in the first limiting hole 213. The shell 10 is made by injection molding, and the first terminal 20 is preferably an elastic conductive terminal, such as a copper alloy terminal. The first terminal 20 is made by stamping and has a certain thickness, and the thickness is between 0.2 mm and 2 mm. When the terminal is made, the overall shape of the terminal is stamped on a copper plate first, and then the first limiting part 211 is bent so that the second limiting part 224 passes through the first limiting hole 213. The second limiting part 224 can move in the first limiting hole 213, for example, it can move forward and backward, up and down, and it can also limit the movement amplitude of the first conductive part 222. When charging, the first conductive part 222 is pressed, and since the second limiting part 224 can move freely in the first limiting hole 213, the first conductive part 222 can deform according to the preset direction, and the first conductive part 222 can retract into the shell 10, so that the problems of elastic sheet deformation and PIN bending can be prevented. It can be seen that the connector can withstand multiple directions of connection, and the connector will not be damaged. The first conductive part 222, the main body part 210, the first limiting part 211, the second limiting part 224, and the fourth limiting part 212 are preferably plate-shaped.

The first end of the main body 210 is sequentially bent to extend a connecting portion 220, the third limiting portion 221 and the first conductive portion 222, and the connecting portion 220, the third limiting portion 221 and the first conductive portion 222 can well control the elastic deformation direction of the first terminal 20, and the first terminal 20 will not be damaged. At the same time, when the first conductive portion 222 is pressed, the second limiting portion 224 can freely move in the first limiting hole 213, so that this design can make the new connector support multi-directional crimping, and can elastically deform in the designed direction, can prevent the deformation of the elastic sheet and the kneeling PIN problem from occurring, and will not be damaged. When the first terminal 20 is assembled, the first terminal 20 is embedded in the first terminal slot 13, and the inner flange 14 presses the third limiting portion 221 and the fourth limiting portion 212, so that the terminal will not be displaced, and the assembly of the first terminal 20 is very simple.

At the same time, the first hole 15 can also be used as a through position, and the elastic needle is pressed into the first hole 15 to take power, and this structure is very ingenious.

[0038] Preferably, the second end of the main body 210 is further bent to form a second conductive portion 215, and the second conductive portion 215 extends from the housing 10; and the second conductive portion 215 is welded with the circuit board 16. The second conductive portion 215 is bent and formed during stamping. The second conductive portion 215 is directly welded with the circuit board 16 by using soldering tin. The second conductive portion 215 is bent towards the circuit board 16, which is convenient for welding.

[0039] Preferably, the shell 10 comprises a first shell 11 and a second shell 12 which are buckled together, the second end of the main body 210 is formed with a fifth limiting part 214; the second conductive part 215 passes out of the second shell 12, and the second shell 12 blocks the fifth limiting part 214 in the first shell 11. The third limiting part 221, the fourth limiting part 212 and the fifth limiting part 214 are preferably plate-shaped. When the first terminal 20 is assembled in the shell 10, the first conductive part 222 passes out of the top of the second shell 12, the second conductive part 215 passes out of the side of the second shell 12, the second shell 12 blocks the fifth limiting part 214, and the inner flange 14 presses the third limiting part 221 and the fourth limiting part 212, so that the terminal does not displace, and the first terminal 20 is very convenient to assemble.
