Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of connectors, and specifically to a connector with an integrated connection terminal. Background Technology

[0002] With the rapid development of new energy technologies, the requirements for connectors are becoming increasingly stringent. A good connector not only needs to meet basic performance requirements but also needs to be structurally reliable, easy to assemble, and low-cost. Generally, when using copper busbar terminals in connectors, after crimping the cable, a tooling fixture is needed to push the cable into the connector; or the copper busbar is installed into the connector first, and the customer then crimps additional terminals and tightens the connection with screws, requiring an extra terminal connection and increasing costs. Customers also have higher requirements for the ease of connector assembly, demanding that the copper busbar terminals can be directly crimped into the cable and installed into the connector without the need for tooling fixtures. This facilitates wiring and assembly by the customer.

[0003] Therefore, it is necessary to provide a new technical solution. Utility Model Content

[0028] In this utility model, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "installation," "connection," "joining," and "fixing," etc., should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral part; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; they can refer to the internal communication of two components or the interaction between two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model according to the specific circumstances.

[0029] This utility model provides a connector with an integrated connection terminal, see reference. Figures 1 to 5It includes a housing 1 and a connecting terminal 2.

[0030] refer to Figures 1 to 3 The housing 1 has multiple connecting channels 11. A raised step 12 is provided within each connecting channel 11 near its first end. The connecting terminal 2 has elastic snap-fit ​​structures 21 on both sides. After the connecting terminal 2 is inserted into the connecting channel 11, the snap-fit ​​structures 21 and the step 12 engage and fix it in place. The space between the step 12 and the first end of the connecting channel 11 accommodates the connecting terminal 2. The connecting terminal 2 is fixed by the snap-fit ​​on its side and the step 12 within the connecting channel 11.

[0031] The connecting terminal 2 includes a connecting core 22, a copper busbar connecting portion 23, a sheet-like connecting portion 24, and a screw 25. The first end of the screw 25 is embedded in the top of the connecting core 22, and the second end of the screw 25 extends outward through the copper busbar connecting portion 23. The copper busbar connecting portion 23 is located on the top of the connecting core 22. The sheet-like connecting portion 24 is connected to the copper busbar connecting portion 23 and is used for crimping cables. The integrated structure of the connecting terminal 2 allows for direct crimping of cables and insertion into the connecting channel 11 for locking and fixing.

[0032] The connecting core 22 includes a main body. The top of the main body is provided with a connecting groove 221, a positioning post 222, and a claw 223. The positioning post 222 and the claw 223 pass vertically upward through the copper busbar connecting part 23. The top of the claw 223 is provided with a downward-sloping barb that can lock onto the copper busbar connecting part 23.

[0033] refer to Figures 3 to 5 The screw 25 has its head set within the connecting groove 221, which matches the shape of the head. The shank of the screw 25 extends upward through the copper busbar connector 23. The positioning post 222 positions and defines the connecting core 22 and the copper busbar connector, while the pawl 223 prevents the copper busbar connector from detaching from the connecting core 22. The screw 25's head is positioned inside the connecting groove 221 and does not protrude from the top surface of the connecting core 22, facilitating smooth contact between the copper busbar connector 23 and the top surface of the main body.

[0034] refer to Figure 5 An elastic support 224 is provided on the first end side of the main body, and the elastic support 224 elastically abuts against the first end of the connecting channel 11. This allows the connecting core 22 to be tightly closed within the connecting channel 11 without slipping out.

[0035] The positioning post 222 is disposed at the second end of the main body opposite to the first end, and the positioning post 222 includes at least two posts.

[0036] refer to Figure 5 The buckle structure 21 is disposed on both sides of the main body parallel to the connecting channel 11. The buckle structure 21 includes a connecting plate 211 and a baffle 212. The first end of the connecting plate 211 is fixed to the main body, and the baffle 212 is fixed to the outer side of the second end of the connecting plate 211. The baffle 212 extends outward at an angle, and the two baffles 212 are V-shaped with their openings facing the sheet-like connecting part 24.

[0037] The baffle 212 is wedge-shaped, and the tip of the baffle 212 contacts the step 12. The connecting plate 211 can be parallel to the side wall of the connecting channel 11 or in a figure-eight shape.

[0038] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: the screw head is set in the connecting groove at the top of the main body, the screw shank passes upward through the copper busbar connector, and the top of the main body is also provided with a positioning post and a locking claw. The copper busbar connector passes downward through the positioning post and the locking claw and makes balanced contact with the top surface of the main body. The locking claw locks the copper busbar connector onto the top of the connecting core. After the sheet connector and the cable are crimped, the connecting terminal is directly pushed into the connecting channel and engaged with the step for fixation.
