Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of electrical connection technology, and in particular to a terminal block that is easy to install quickly. Background Technology

[0002] With the development of the electronics industry, the application scope of terminal blocks is increasing, and the types are also increasing. In the electrical installation process, the use of terminal blocks will improve the efficiency and aesthetics of wiring. Currently, terminal blocks on the market are installed using screw fastening.

[0003] The aforementioned existing technical solutions have the following drawbacks: Traditional terminal blocks are screw-fastened, which requires sufficient operating space to ensure proper screw insertion. Insufficient installation space may lead to operational difficulties or insecure connections. Under vibration or impact environments, screw-fastened connections may loosen, causing terminals to detach. Screw-fastening also requires precise control of tightening torque and angle; improper operation may result in loose screws or stripped threads. Repeated insertion and removal may cause screw holes to loosen or spring contacts to fail. Furthermore, improper operation may lead to screws being missed during tightening. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a terminal block that is easy to install quickly, so as to solve the problems existing in the prior art.

[0005] The above-mentioned technical objective of this utility model is achieved through the following technical solution:

[0006] A terminal block for easy and quick installation includes an insulating bracket. The top of the insulating bracket has a through-groove extending to the left and right. The inner top and bottom of the accommodating groove have protrusions integrally formed with the insulating bracket. Symmetrical slots are provided on the front and rear sides of the top of the insulating bracket. Insulating brackets are provided at both ends of the terminal block, and both ends of the terminal block are inserted into the accommodating groove. An insulating protective shell is disposed on the top of the terminal block, and both ends of the insulating protective shell are slidably mounted in the slots.

[0007] By adopting the above technical solution, quick installation can be achieved through the first through holes and the protrusions in the receiving groove at both ends of the terminal block, avoiding the drawbacks of traditional screws, such as limited space, loose screws, stripped screws, and workers missing locks.

[0008] In a further embodiment, each of the protrusions has a bevel on the side near the terminal block. A first rectangular groove is provided above the top of the receiving groove, and a second rectangular groove is provided below the bottom of the receiving groove. A reinforcing rib is provided in the first rectangular groove and the second rectangular groove. The reinforcing ribs intersect in the first and second rectangular grooves. The reinforcing ribs are integrally formed with the insulating bracket. A U-shaped groove for positioning and installation is provided at the bottom of the insulating bracket.

[0009] By adopting the above technical solution, in the rapid installation of the insulating bracket and the terminal block, the deformation generated by the second rectangular block, the third rectangular block and the rectangular protective shell slot during the installation of the terminal block and the receiving groove makes the terminal block easier to install. The staggered arrangement of the reinforcing ribs at the diagonal of the second rectangular block and the third rectangular block can pull the receiving groove. The U-shaped groove at the bottom of the insulating bracket makes it easier to position and install the insulating bracket.

[0010] In a further embodiment, the terminal block is provided with first circular holes spaced apart from left to right. The axes of the first circular holes are all vertically arranged, and the centers of the first circular holes are all on the same horizontal line. The first circular holes are provided with threads. The terminal block is provided with first through holes at both ends. The axes of the first through holes are all vertically arranged, and the centers of the first through holes are all on the same horizontal line. The terminal block is provided with second through holes spaced apart from left to right. The axes of the second through holes are all horizontally arranged, and the centers of the second through holes are all on the same horizontal line. The axes of the second through holes intersect perpendicularly with the axes of the first through holes and the first circular holes.

[0011] By adopting the above technical solution, the terminal block and the insulating bracket can be quickly connected through the first through hole and the cylindrical buckle. The threaded part in the first circular hole makes it easier to connect the wire to the terminal block.

[0012] In a further embodiment, the insulating protective shell is used to isolate the wiring terminals and to shield the top space of the wiring terminals, preventing the top of the wiring terminals from directly contacting the outside.

[0013] By adopting the above technical solutions, the wiring terminals are prevented from being exposed to the external environment. By installing protective shells, direct contact between personnel and external factors and the wiring terminals can be effectively avoided, thereby reducing safety risks.

[0014] In summary, this utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0015] 1. By using the first through hole of the terminal block and the protrusion of the insulating bracket, the difficulties associated with using traditional screws in confined spaces are avoided, preventing screw stripping, inaccurate control of installation torque, and missed locking due to improper operation by the staff. This enables the terminal block to be installed quickly.

[0016] 2. By setting the reinforcing ribs of the insulating support, the deformation of the receiving groove can be restored by tension;

[0017] 3. The design of the first and second through holes allows for deformation during terminal installation, making it easier and faster to install the terminals and insulating supports. Attached Figure Description

Symmetrical slots 9 are provided on the front and rear sides of the top of the vertical rectangular block of the insulating bracket 1. The insulating bracket 1 is located at both ends of the terminal block 2. On the left side of the terminal block 2, the slots 9 on the front and rear sides of the top of the vertical rectangular block of the insulating bracket 1 are completely open on the right, and on the right side, the slots 9 on the front and rear sides of the top of the vertical rectangular block of the insulating bracket 1 are completely open on the left. The insulating protective shell 3 is an inverted U-shaped structure. The bottom of the front side of the insulating protective shell 3 has a backward-facing folded edge, and the bottom of the rear side of the insulating protective shell 3 has a forward-facing folded edge. Both ends of the insulating protective shell 3 are inserted into the slot 9. The upper and lower end faces of the front and rear folded edges of the insulating protective shell 3 are in contact with the inner top and inner bottom surfaces of the slot 9. The inner front side of the insulating protective shell 3 is in contact with the front side of the insulating bracket 1, and the inner rear side of the insulating protective shell 3 is in contact with the rear side of the insulating bracket. The insulating protective shell 3 is used to cover the top of the wiring terminal 2 to prevent the staff from contacting the wiring terminal 2, thereby playing a protective role. The protrusion 5 located in the accommodating groove 4 of the left insulating bracket 1 has a slope on the right side of the protrusion 5 at the top and inner bottom. The protrusion 5 located in the accommodating groove 4 of the right insulating bracket 1 has a slope on the left side. The top and bottom of the vertical rectangular block of the insulating bracket 1 are provided with a first rectangular groove 6 and a second rectangular groove 7. The first rectangular groove 6, the second rectangular groove 7 and the accommodating groove 4 are not connected. The first rectangular groove 6 and the second rectangular groove 7 are both provided with reinforcing ribs 8 integrally formed along the diagonal. The rectangular protrusion of the insulating bracket 1 is provided with a positioning and installation U-shaped groove 13.
