When using connectors, the terminal temperature rises rapidly. However, current high-voltage, low-current connectors lack temperature monitoring modules. This has several drawbacks: firstly, excessively high temperatures can cause the connector itself or connected electronic components and cables to fail or burn, posing safety hazards and reducing equipment performance and lifespan.

The first shaft hole of the heat-conducting element is sleeved with the middle section of the bonding terminal, and the rear groove on one side of the heat-conducting element wraps around and bonds the front end of the temperature sensing element. The rear end of the temperature sensing element is connected to the front side of the PCB board.

The heat-conducting element transfers heat to the temperature sensing element on the PCB board, and the temperature signal is transmitted to the electronic controller in real time through the low-voltage connector, realizing real-time monitoring of the high-voltage, low-current connector.

[0007] In some implementations, the temperature sensing element is an NTC thermistor, which is soldered to the front side of the PCB board.

[0012] In some embodiments, the front housing of the outer casing is provided with several insertion holes, and each insertion hole has a positioning groove on its rear side that is the same as the outline size of the heat-conducting element. The front end of the terminal is connected to the insertion hole with an equal diameter plug sleeve, and the heat-conducting element is interference-fitted into the positioning groove.

[0020] This novel high-voltage, low-current temperature monitoring connector achieves real-time and effective monitoring of terminal temperature through a new temperature-sensing component and a low-voltage connector. Its advantages are: First, the device monitors the terminal's operating temperature in real time, avoiding safety hazards caused by excessive temperature, resulting in high equipment safety and a long service life.
