Specifically, excessive heat increases the resistivity of the circuit, leading to safety concerns and deterioration of electrical performance, thus affecting the performance and safety of the connector. Therefore, effective heat dissipation is necessary to ensure stable and safe operation of electrical connectors. Summary of the Invention

[0003] To address the aforementioned issues, the purpose of this invention is to provide a heat-dissipating current-carrying connector that effectively ensures the heat dissipation performance of the connector during operation, thereby improving the safety performance and service life of the heat-dissipating current-carrying connector.

The use of fisheye pin terminals in fastener 330 ensures the connection stability and ease of maintenance of the heat-dissipating current-carrying connector.

[0035] The working principle of this utility model will be further explained below.

[0036] During the production process, based on the plug's specifications and usage environment, a main body 100 and a connecting part 300 of corresponding sizes are selected to ensure that the interface 310 and the fastening ring 321 are compatible with the plug. Specifically, the interface 310 can adopt the socket specifications of existing products, so that the plug can be stably inserted and fixed in the interface 310 and the fastening ring 321 at the upper end of the main body 100, and stably electrically connected to the fastening ring 321 at the lower end of the main body 100 through the connecting grille 322. Simultaneously, the main body 100 is provided with parallel heat dissipation grooves 220. A fixing hole 110 is also provided below, and connection holes 120 are evenly distributed at the lower end of the main body 100. Next, the heat transfer block 210 is sleeved on the connecting part 300 and installed inside the main body 100. In some embodiments, the heat transfer block 210 can be formed between the connecting part 300 and the main body 100 by injection molding or potting to ensure the structural integrity of the heat-dissipating current-carrying connector. Finally, the connecting part 300 is fixedly installed inside the main body 100 by inserting bolts into the fixing hole 110, and fasteners 330 are installed in the connection hole 120. This completes the production and assembly of the heat-dissipating current-carrying connector. The whole process is efficient and controllable, effectively ensuring the structural stability of the heat-dissipating current-carrying connector.

[0037] During use, the main body 100 is inserted into the corresponding through hole of the circuit board via fastener 330, and the plug is inserted into the interface 310 to electrically connect with the circuit board. The connecting gate 322 is wound around a hyperbolic geometry to provide robust and high-density contact with the plug. At this time, since the plug is surrounded by the main body 100 and the heat dissipation groove 220, the plug is fixedly connected to the main body 100 via the connecting gate 322 and the heat transfer block 210, and electrically connected to the circuit board via the fastener 330, so that the large current generated by the plug can be transmitted to the circuit board. Simultaneously, the heat generated during the current's journey from the plug and the heat-dissipating current-carrying connector to the circuit board is transferred outwards via the heat transfer block 210 and the main body 100. The heat dissipation groove 220 generates an additional surface area to improve the heat dissipation performance of the main body 100, thereby preventing the heat-dissipating current-carrying connector from overheating. In addition, the connection between the fastener 330 and the circuit board not only secures the body 100 to the circuit board, but also provides a contact path for heat transfer, thereby further improving the heat dissipation efficiency of the heat-dissipating current-carrying connector and ensuring the connection stability between the plug and the circuit board.

[0038] As can be seen from the above description, the heat-dissipating current-carrying connector of this utility model, by setting up a main body 100 and a heat dissipation part 200, allows the heat transfer block 210 to transfer the heat inside the main body 100 to the outside of the main body 100, and then quickly transfer it to the air through the heat dissipation groove 220, thereby improving the heat dissipation performance of the heat-dissipating current-carrying connector and ensuring its safety performance. By setting up a main body 100 and a connecting part 300, the plug can be stably installed into the interface 310 through the fixing part 320 and connected to the circuit board through the fastener 330, thereby ensuring the connection stability of the heat-dissipating current-carrying connector, preventing the plug from loosening during use, and improving the heat dissipating current-carrying connector. The safety performance and service life of the device are improved; by setting the fixing hole 110, it is easy to fix the connecting part 300 into the main body 100 by inserting bolts into the fixing hole 110, so as to avoid the fixing part 320 from loosening during use and improve the structural stability of the heat dissipation current carrier connector; by setting the fastening ring 321 and the connecting grid 322, it is ensured that the fixing part 320 can stably fix the plug, which also improves the connectivity and connection stability between the plug and the connecting part 300; by setting the connecting hole 120, it is easy to fix the fastener 330 stably and flexibly at the lower end of the main body 100, so as to avoid the fastener 330 from loosening and improve the structural integrity of the heat dissipation current carrier connector.

[0039] The embodiments of the present utility model have been described in detail above with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, the present utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. Within the scope of knowledge possessed by those skilled in the art, various changes can be made without departing from the spirit of the present utility model.
