[0039] Working principle

[0040] This easy-to-install integrated energy meter module connector is used by first fixing the mounting plate 1 to the wall using multiple screws. Then, the slider 4, fixed to the side wall of the connector plate 5, is slidably inserted into the groove 3 on the side wall of the fixing strip 2. When the slider 4 slides into the groove 3 and contacts the side wall of the locking plate 11, the curved side wall of the locking plate 11 allows it to be pushed into the mounting hole 8 by the slider 4 until it moves into the slot on the side wall of the slider 4. At this point, the spring 10 pushes the locking plate 11 into the slot, thus fixing the slider 4. Then, the integrated energy meter module is installed. The bottom connector of the meter module is inserted into the outer wall of multiple contact posts 7. Then, the integrated energy meter module is pressed into the mounting frame 6 until it moves into the mounting frame 6. At this time, the push springs 14 fixedly installed inside the multiple limiting cylinders 12 push the L-shaped clamping plates 15 fixedly installed at their ends to press down and limit the integrated energy meter module, thereby further improving the stability of the integrated energy meter module. At the same time, the top spring 18 in the annular groove 17 at the lower end of the mounting frame 6 pushes the sealing ring 19 fixedly installed at its end to move upward and fit against the bottom of the integrated energy meter module, thereby further improving the sealing performance of the bottom connector of the integrated energy meter module.
