The mounting housing 10 is electrically connected to the line terminal 20 and the plug end 30 respectively to realize the circuit connection between the line terminal 20 and the plug end 30.
[0030] The simplified assembly temperature sensing safety data cable of this utility model is assembled from a mounting shell 10, line terminals 20, and a plug end 30. During manufacturing, a thermistor is installed at the C-to-C port of the plug end 30 to sense temperature changes. When a temperature change occurs and a set value is reached, the circuit is cut off to improve safety. A mounting cavity 14 and a locking groove 15 are formed on the mounting shell 10. An opening is provided on one side of the mounting cavity 14 for assembling the plug end 30. A spring piece 40 is provided on each of the two inner side walls of the mounting cavity 14, with the two spring pieces 40 facing each other.

Limiting grooves 31 are provided on both sides of the plug terminal 30, and the positions of the limiting grooves 31 correspond one-to-one with the limiting protrusions 41. During assembly, the plug terminal 30 is inserted into the opening of the mounting cavity 14 by pushing. When the limiting grooves 31 and the limiting protrusions 41 are engaged, the positioning assembly is completed. Then, the line terminal 20 is assembled in the locking groove 15. The circuit between the plug terminal 30 and the line terminal 20 is connected by the mounting shell 10. Through the above structural design, the safety of the data cable head for easy assembly is effectively improved.
[0031] In another embodiment of this utility model, such as Figures 1-5 As shown, the mounting housing 10 includes an upper housing 11, a lower housing 12, and a connector 13. Two spring clips 40 are snapped between the upper housing 11 and the lower housing 12.

The split design of the upper housing 11 and the lower housing 12 facilitates the assembly of the connector 13 that connects the plug end 30 and the line end, and also facilitates the assembly of the line end into the slot 15.
[0032] In another embodiment of this utility model, such as Figures 1-5 As shown, both the upper housing 11 and the lower housing 12 are provided with mounting grooves. The two mounting grooves are combined and located between the mounting cavity 14 and the locking groove 15. The combined two mounting grooves connect the mounting cavity 14 and the mounting groove. The connector 13 is fixedly installed in the two mounting grooves, and both ends of the connector 13 extend through the combined two mounting grooves to the mounting cavity 14 and the locking groove 15, respectively. The mounting grooves enable the connector 13 to connect the plug end 30 and the line end located in the mounting cavity 14 and the locking groove 15.
[0033] In another embodiment of this utility model, such as Figures 2-3 As shown, the two ends of the spring piece 40 are bent toward the side opposite to the limiting protrusion 41 to form a snap-fit plate. The snap-fit plate snaps into the inner side wall of the mounting cavity 14, and the spring piece 40 is snapped onto the side wall of the mounting cavity 14 by the snap-fit plate.
[0034] In another embodiment of this utility model, such as Figures 2-4 As shown, two slots are provided on the two opposite inner sidewalls of the mounting cavity 14. The snap-fit plate is installed in the slot and hidden in the slot. The curved corner of the snap-fit plate is used to improve the smoothness of the plug end 30 during assembly.
[0035] In another embodiment of this utility model, such as Figures 2-4 As shown, the two ends of the limiting groove 31 are smoothly connected to the side of the plug end 30 with a curved surface to avoid jamming when the plug end 30 is inserted.
[0036] In another embodiment of this utility model, such as Figures 2-4 As shown, the two ends of the limiting protrusion 41 are smoothly connected to the surface of the spring piece 40, so as to achieve a smooth positional change between the limiting protrusion 41 and the limiting groove 31.
[0037] In another embodiment of this utility model, such as Figures 2-4 As shown, the limiting protrusion 41 and the limiting groove 31 are tightly fitted together to prevent the plug end 30 from shaking after assembly.
