Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of terminal blocks, and more particularly to an output terminal block and a wiring terminal block. Background Technology

[0002] Terminal blocks are accessories used to achieve electrical connections. They serve to connect wires and cables in electronic devices, circuit boards, or electrical systems, facilitating electrical connections.

[0003] In related technologies, terminal blocks include input terminals and output terminals. When the housing of an input terminal is inserted into the housing of an output terminal, each output conductive piece of the output terminal is inserted into the corresponding input conductive piece of the corresponding input terminal, thereby realizing the connection between each input port of the input terminal and each output port of the output terminal. Multiple output conductive pieces can be implemented using connectors; only one output conductive piece needs to be connected to an input conductive piece to allow one input port to correspond to multiple output ports, thus fulfilling certain circuit functions.

[0004] However, in practical applications, after long-term use, the connection between the connector and multiple output conductive plates is prone to loosening, resulting in poor stability of the output terminals. Therefore, improvements are needed. Utility Model Content

[0005] In order to improve the stability of the output terminal during long-term use, in a first aspect, this application provides an output terminal.

[0006] The output terminal provided in this application adopts the following technical solution:

[0007] An output terminal includes a mounting housing, a plurality of output ports, and a plurality of output conductive elements; the plurality of output ports are spaced apart from each other in a first direction in the mounting housing; each output conductive element includes at least two output conductive pieces, and two adjacent output conductive pieces are connected together by a connecting piece; each output conductive piece is disposed in the mounting housing, and each output conductive piece is connected to each of the output ports.

[0008] By adopting the above technical solution, in practical applications, multiple output conductive plates are connected by connecting plates, and each output conductive plate is connected to each output port. In this way, only one output conductive plate needs to be connected to the input conductive plate, so that one input port corresponds to multiple output ports. Since two adjacent output conductive plates are integrated under the connection of the connecting plates, the stability of the connection between the two adjacent output conductive plates is guaranteed even after long-term use, thereby effectively improving the stability of the output terminal in long-term use.

[0009] Preferably, the mounting housing includes multiple mounting bodies and mounting bases, the multiple mounting bodies are spaced apart along the first direction and adjacent two mounting bodies are fixed by snap-fit, and the mounting base is snap-fitted to the multiple mounting bodies.

[0012] By adopting the above technical solution, by setting a groove, the output conductive sheet is embedded in the groove to achieve the installation and fixation of the output conductive sheet. The wiring surface of the output conductive sheet is slightly higher than the bottom wall of the inlet hole of the mounting body, so that the wire can be pressed more stably and firmly onto the output conductive sheet.

[0013] Preferably, the mounting body has a through-slot on the side away from the inlet hole for the output conductive sheet to pass through, and the through-slot is bent.

[0014] By adopting the above technical solution, and by setting a through-slot for the output conductive sheet to pass through, and by setting the through-slot to be curved, the output conductive sheet can be more stably installed and fixed to the mounting body.

[0015] Preferably, the mounting body has a limiting groove, the limiting groove is connected to the recess, and the end of the output conductive sheet near the inlet hole is bent and snapped into the limiting groove.

[0016] By adopting the above technical solution and setting a limiting groove, the stability of the output conductive sheet being installed and fixed to the mounting body is further improved.

[0017] Preferably, the output conductive element further includes a plug-in piece, which is disposed at one end of one of the output conductive pieces and plugged into the mounting base.

[0018] By adopting the above technical solution, a plug-in piece is provided, which is inserted into the mounting base to limit the installation position of the output conductive piece. The plug-in piece is also used to insert the input conductive piece so that the output conductive piece is connected to the input conductive piece.

[0019] Preferably, the end of the connector away from the output conductive sheet has a chamfer.

[0020] By adopting the above technical solution and setting a chamfer, it is easier for the plug-in piece to be inserted into the mounting base and the input conductive piece.

[0021] Preferably, the mounting body has a first snap-fit ​​groove and a second snap-fit ​​groove spaced apart along the second direction on one side. The mounting base includes a base body, a plurality of snap-fit ​​blocks and a plurality of snap-fit ​​plates. The plurality of snap-fit ​​blocks and the plurality of snap-fit ​​plates are disposed on the base body, and each snap-fit ​​block snaps into each of the first snap-fit ​​grooves, and each snap-fit ​​plate snaps into each of the second snap-fit ​​grooves.

[0022] By adopting the above technical solution, the first and second snap-fit ​​slots are spaced apart along the second direction, so that each snap-fit ​​block snaps into each first snap-fit ​​slot and each snap-fit ​​plate snaps into each second snap-fit ​​slot, thereby realizing the snap-fit ​​between the mounting base and the mounting body and ensuring the stability of the snap-fit ​​between the mounting base and the mounting body.

[0023] Preferably, the mounting body has a positioning rib on the side near the mounting base, and the mounting base has a positioning groove, into which the positioning rib is inserted.

[0028] In summary, this application includes at least one of the following beneficial technical effects:

[0029] 1. Multiple output conductive plates are connected by connecting plates, and each output conductive plate is connected to each output port. In this way, only one output conductive plate needs to be connected to the input conductive plate, so that one input port can correspond to multiple output ports. Since two adjacent output conductive plates are connected as one unit by the connecting plate, the stability of the connection between the two adjacent output conductive plates is guaranteed even after long-term use, thereby effectively improving the stability of the output terminal in long-term use.

[0040] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figure 1-7 This application will be described in further detail.

[0041] This application discloses a terminal block.

[0042] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 The terminal block includes an input terminal 1 and an output terminal 2. The input terminal 1 includes a plug-in housing 11, multiple input conductive plates 12, and multiple input ports 13. The multiple input conductive plates 12 are fixedly connected in the plug-in housing 11 and are evenly spaced along a first direction. The first direction is... Figure 1In the X-axis direction, the number of input ports 13 is the same as the number of input conductive plates 12, so that each input port 13 matches each input conductive plate 12. Specifically, the input port 13 includes an input button 131 and an input pressure plate 132. The output button 221 is rotatably connected to the plug-in housing 11, and the input pressure plate 132 is elastically fixed in the plug-in housing 11. The wire passes through the plug-in housing 11, and by rotating the input button 131, the input pressure plate 132 abuts against the wire, so that the wire is pressed between the input pressure plate 132 and the input conductive plate 12.

[0043] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 3 The terminal block includes a mounting housing 21, multiple output ports 22, and multiple output conductive elements 23. The shape of the mounting housing 21 is adapted to the plug-in housing 11, so that the plug-in housing 11 can be inserted into the mounting housing 21. The multiple output ports 22 are evenly spaced along a first direction in the mounting housing 21. Specifically, the output port 22 includes an output button 221 and an output pressure plate 222. The output button 221 is rotatably connected to the mounting housing 21, and the output pressure plate 222 is elastically fixed to the mounting housing 21. The wire passes through the mounting housing 21, and by rotating the output button 221, the output pressure plate 222 abuts against the wire, so that the wire is pressed between the output pressure plate 222 and the output conductive element 231.

[0044] Reference Figure 3 and Figure 4 The output conductive element 23 includes at least two output conductive pieces 231. This embodiment uses two output conductive pieces 231 as an example. In this case, the number of output ports 22 is twice the number of output conductive elements 23, and the number of output conductive elements 23 is the same as the number of input ports 13. The two output conductive pieces 231 are spaced apart along a first direction, and the two output conductive pieces 231 are connected as one unit by a connecting piece 232. Each output conductive piece 231 is installed and fixed in the mounting housing 21, and each output conductive piece 231 is connected to each output port 22. One of the output conductive pieces 231 is connected to the input conductive piece 12.

[0045] In practical applications, the plug-in housing 11 is inserted into the mounting housing 21, so that each input conductive piece 12 is connected to one of the output conductive pieces 231 of each output conductive element 23. The two output conductive pieces 231 of each output conductive element 23 are connected by a connecting piece 232, and each output conductive piece 231 is connected to each output port 22. This allows one input port 13 to correspond to two output ports 22 to meet different circuit functions. Of course, by setting the number of output conductive pieces 231 of the output conductive element 23, one input port 13 can correspond to different numbers of output ports 22. Since two adjacent output conductive pieces 231 are integrated under the connection of the connecting piece 232, the stability of the connection between the two adjacent output conductive pieces 231 is guaranteed even after long-term use, thereby effectively improving the long-term stability of the output terminal 2.

[0046] In some embodiments, the mounting housing 21 includes a plurality of mounting bodies 211 and mounting bases 212. The plurality of mounting bodies 211 are spaced apart along a first direction, and two adjacent mounting bodies 211 are snapped together by a protrusion and groove structure. The number of mounting bodies 211 is the same as the number of output ports 22, and each output port 22 is mounted on its respective mounting body 211, while each output conductive sheet 231 is also mounted in its respective mounting body 211. Simultaneously, the mounting bases 212 snap onto the plurality of mounting bodies 211. When assembling the mounting housing 21, the plurality of mounting bodies 211 are snapped together and then the mounting bases 212 are snapped onto the plurality of mounting bodies 211. This operation is simple and convenient, facilitating the assembly of the mounting housing 21.

[0047] In some embodiments, the mounting body 211 has a recess 211a, and the output conductive sheet 231 is embedded in the recess 211a with one end passing through the mounting body 211, so as to fix the output conductive sheet 231 to the mounting body 211. The mounting body 211 has an inlet hole 211b for the power supply wire to pass through on the side away from the plug-in housing 11. The wiring surface of the output conductive sheet 231 (i.e., the upper side of the end of the output conductive sheet 231 away from the plug-in housing 11) is slightly higher than the bottom wall of the inlet hole 211b. The insulation layer of the wire abuts against the end of the output conductive sheet 231, so that the conductivity of the wire is more fully abutted against the wiring surface, thereby allowing the wire to be more stably and firmly pressed against the output conductive sheet 231, thus improving the stability of the output terminal 2. It should be noted that, as Figure 5 As shown, the connecting piece 232 is installed in the mounting groove 211h of the mounting body 211.

[0048] In some embodiments, a through groove 211c is provided on the side of the mounting body 211 away from the inlet hole 211b for the output conductive sheet 231 to pass through. The through groove 211c is bent to restrict the output conductive sheet 231 from moving along its own length direction, thereby improving the stability of the output conductive sheet 231 in the mounting body 211.

[0049] In some embodiments, the mounting body 211 has a limiting groove 211d, which is connected to the recess 211a. The end of the output conductive sheet 231 near the inlet hole 211b is bent and confined in the limiting groove 211d to improve the stability of the output conductive sheet 231 in the mounting body 211. At the same time, due to the bending of the output conductive sheet 231, the end of the output conductive sheet 231 near the inlet hole 211b forms a rounded corner, so that it does not affect the wire inlet.

[0050] In some embodiments, the output conductive element 23 further includes a connector 233, which is integrally connected to one end of one of the output conductive pieces 231. The connector 233 is inserted into the mounting base 212 to limit the installation position of the output conductive piece 231. At the same time, the connector 233 is inserted into the input conductive piece 12 to realize the connection between the output conductive element 23 and the input conductive piece 12.

[0051] In some embodiments, the end of the plug-in piece 233 away from the output conductive piece 231 is provided with a chamfer 234 so that the plug-in piece 233 can be inserted into the mounting base 212 and the input conductive piece 12.

[0052] Reference Figure 6 In some embodiments, the mounting body 211 has a first snap-fit ​​groove 211e and a second snap-fit ​​groove 211f spaced apart along a second direction on the side near the mounting base 212, wherein the second direction is... Figure 1The Y-axis direction is shown in the figure. Meanwhile, the mounting base 212 includes a base body 212a, multiple snap-fit ​​blocks 212b, and multiple snap-fit ​​plates 212c. The multiple snap-fit ​​blocks 212b and multiple snap-fit ​​plates 212c are integrally connected to the side of the base body 212a near the mounting body 211. The number of snap-fit ​​blocks 212b is half the number of mounting bodies 211, and the number of snap-fit ​​plates 212c is the same as the number of mounting bodies 211. Using the protrusions on opposite sides of the snap-fit ​​blocks 212b and snap-fit ​​plates 212c, each snap-fit ​​block 212b snaps into its corresponding first snap-fit ​​groove 211e, and each snap-fit ​​plate 212c snaps into its corresponding second snap-fit ​​groove 211f, thereby achieving the snap-fit ​​between the mounting base 212 and the mounting body 211 and ensuring the stability of the snap-fit ​​between the mounting base 212 and the mounting body 211. It should be noted that the structure of the plug-in shell 11 is similar to that of the mounting shell 21, which allows the mounting body 211 of the mounting shell 21 to be used in the plug-in shell 11. This eliminates the need for different molds to be used in the production of this part of the plug-in shell 11, thus effectively reducing production costs.

[0053] Reference Figure 6 and Figure 7 In some embodiments, a rectangular plate-shaped positioning rib 211g protrudes from the side of the mounting body 211 near the base 212a, and a corresponding positioning groove 212d is provided on the base 212a. The positioning rib 211g is inserted into the positioning groove 212d to realize the positioning installation between the mounting body 211 and the mounting base 212, thereby facilitating the accurate assembly of the mounting shell 21 and ensuring a safe distance between the mounting body 211 and the mounting base 212.

[0054] The implementation principle of this embodiment is as follows: In practical applications, the plug-in housing 11 is plugged into the mounting housing 21, so that each input conductive piece 12 is connected to one of the output conductive pieces 231 of each output conductive element 23. The two output conductive pieces 231 of each output conductive element 23 are connected through the connecting piece 232, and each output conductive piece 231 is connected to each output port 22. This allows one input port 13 to correspond to two output ports 22 to meet different circuit functions. Of course, by setting the number of output conductive pieces 231 of the output conductive element 23, one input port 13 can correspond to different numbers of output ports 22. Since two adjacent output conductive pieces 231 are integrated under the connection of the connecting piece 232, the stability of the connection between the two adjacent output conductive pieces 231 is guaranteed even after long-term use, thereby effectively improving the long-term stability of the output terminal 2.

[0055] The above are all preferred embodiments of this application, and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this application. Therefore, all equivalent changes made in accordance with the structure, shape and principle of this application should be covered within the scope of protection of this application.
