The grounding busbar 2 and the grounding washer 7 are mounted on one end of the grounding screw 3, with the grounding washer 7 clamped on the outside of the grounding busbar 2. The grounding nut 8 is screwed onto the grounding screw 3 and tightly pressed against the grounding washer 7. The mounting nut 6, in conjunction with the grounding nut 6, clamps and fixes the grounding washer 7 and the grounding busbar 2. The reinforcing nut 9 is pressed onto one side of the grounding nut 8. A limiting groove 14 is provided on one side of the grounding nut 8, and a [missing information] is provided on one side of the reinforcing nut 9. An eccentric protrusion 13 is inserted into the inner side of the limiting groove 14. The reinforcing nut 9 is screwed onto the grounding screw 3, and the eccentric protrusion 13 is inserted into the grounding nut 8. The eccentric protrusion 13 is pressed tightly against the inner wall of the limiting groove 14 to strengthen the limiting of the grounding nut 8. The grounding pad 7 includes a chromium zirconium copper reinforced alloy plate 16. A honeycomb plate 15 is installed on the inner side of the chromium zirconium copper reinforced alloy plate 16. An Ag-TiN nanocomposite coating 17 is provided on the outer side of the chromium zirconium copper reinforced alloy plate 16. During use, it can enhance the compressive strength of the grounding pad 7 and ensure its conductivity. An anti-slip pit 18 is provided on one side of the grounding pad 7. The grounding nut 8 and the mounting nut 6 are engaged in the anti-slip pit 18. During use, the anti-slip pit 18 engages with the grounding nut 8 and the mounting nut 6 to ensure greater stability when the grounding pad 7 is tightly pressed and fixed.
[0022] As can be seen from the above description, this utility model has the following beneficial effects: When in use, the grounding busbar 2 is installed by clamping the grounding pad 7, and the anti-slip pit 18 ensures that the grounding nut 8 and the installation nut 6 are pressed more stably on the grounding pad 7. When in use, the honeycomb plate 15 and the chromium zirconium copper reinforced alloy plate 16 work together to ensure better support.
[0023] Example 2: Please refer to Figures 1 to 5As shown, based on Embodiment 1, this utility model provides a technical solution: A mounting washer 4 is installed on the outer side of one end of the grounding screw 3, and the mounting washer 4 are symmetrically installed on both sides of the power connection mounting frame 1. A support spring 5 is installed between the mounting washer 4. The grounding screw 3 is tightly fixed to the outer side of the mounting washer 4 by a mounting nut 6. The mounting washer 4 are symmetrically stacked on both sides of the power connection mounting frame 1, and the support spring 5 is installed between the mounting washer 4. The grounding screw 3 passes through the mounting washer 4, the support spring 5, and the power connection mounting frame 1. The mounting nut 6 is screwed in and fixed; the mounting gasket 4 includes an arc-shaped piece 10, with a support plate 11 integrally provided at both ends of the arc-shaped piece 10. The arc-shaped pieces 10 are supported and stacked by the support plate 11. A limit groove 12 is provided on one side of the arc-shaped piece 10. The elasticity of the arc-shaped piece 10 and the support spring 5 ensures that the grounding screw 3 and the mounting nut 6 can be stably fixed to the power connection mounting bracket 1; the support spring 5 is set as a conical spring washer. The support spring 5 is engaged inside the limit groove 12, which ensures that the support spring 5 has a better effect during installation and use.

During installation, the elasticity of the arc-shaped piece 10 and the support spring 5 ensures a more stable fixation.
[0025] The working principle and usage process of this utility model are as follows: During use, mounting pads 4 are symmetrically stacked on both sides of the power connection mounting frame 1, with support springs 5 installed between the mounting pads 4. Grounding screws 3 pass through the mounting pads 4, support springs 5, and the power connection mounting frame 1, and are secured by screwing on mounting nuts 6. The mounting nuts 6 and grounding screws 3 press against the mounting pads 4. The elasticity of the arc-shaped piece 10 and the support springs 5 ensures stable fixation between the grounding screws 3, mounting nuts 6, and the power connection mounting frame 1. Then, the grounding busbar... 2 and the grounding pad 7 are installed at one end of the grounding screw 3, and the grounding pad 7 is clamped on the outside of the grounding busbar 2. The grounding nut 8 is screwed on the grounding screw 3 and pressed tightly on the grounding pad 7. The installation nut 6 is used to clamp and fix the grounding pad 7 and the grounding busbar 2. Then the reinforcing nut 9 is screwed on the grounding screw 3, and the eccentric protrusion 13 is inserted into the grounding nut 8. The eccentric protrusion 13 is pressed tightly against the inner wall of the limiting groove 14 to strengthen the limiting of the grounding nut 8, thereby ensuring that the grounding busbar 2 is more stable after it is fixed.
