[0020] The embodiments of this utility model will be described in further detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and examples. The following examples are for illustrative purposes only and should not be construed as limiting the scope of this utility model.
[0021] Example:
[0022] As attached Figure 1 To be continued Figure 3 As shown:
[0023] This utility model provides an integrally molded nickel sheet connection terminal for new energy vehicles, including a connector 1001 and a protective mechanism. The connector 1001 has a locking hole 1002 at its center, and a connecting tube 1003 is installed on the outer side of the connector 1001. The connecting tube 1003 has an insertion hole 1004 inside. The protective mechanism includes a pair of protective covers 2005. A first mounting ring 2001 is sleeved on the outer side of the connecting tube 1003, and a second mounting ring 2003 is sleeved on the outer side of the first mounting ring 2001. Mounting blocks 2002 are installed on one side of both the first mounting ring 2001 and the second mounting ring 2003. A hinge seat 2004 is installed on the outer side of each pair of mounting blocks 2002, and a hinge block is hinged inside each pair of hinge seats 2004. The pair of protective covers 2005 are respectively connected to the pair of hinge blocks, and the pair of protective covers 2005 are located on the top of the connector 1001.
[0024] The protective covers 2005 are provided with protective grooves 2006 inside. One of the protective covers 2005 has a pair of inserts 2007 installed on one side, and the other protective cover 2005 has a pair of slots 2008 on one side, and the inserts 2007 and slots 2008 engage with each other.
[0025] One of the protective covers 2005 has two pairs of movable slots 2009 on the top side near the slot 2008, and a plug rod 2010 is slidably installed inside the movable slot 2009. A pull rod 2011 is installed on the top side of the plug rod 2010. By installing the plug rod 2010, the plug block 2007 can be engaged with the slot 2008 to fix a pair of protective covers 2005.
[0026] A spring 2012 is connected to one side of the inner wall of the movable groove 2009, and one end of the spring 2012 is connected to one side of the insertion rod 2010. The two sides of the inner wall of the insertion block 2007 are provided with slots 2013, and one end of the pair of insertion rods 2010 passes through the movable groove 2009 and engages with the slots 2013.
[0027] The insertion rod 2010 has limit blocks installed on both sides of its exterior, and the moving groove 2009 has limit grooves on both sides of its interior. A pair of limit blocks are slidably installed inside the limit grooves.
