Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of electrical connection technology, specifically to LDB branch terminals. Background Technology
[0002] In the field of electrical connections, branch terminals, as key components for realizing the split connection between the main cable and multiple branch lines, are widely used in various circuit systems.
[0003] Currently, branch terminals on the market come in various structural forms. Common ones consist of an insulating base, a wiring frame, and a protective cover. The wiring frame includes wire clamps, screws, nuts, and a support frame. By combining wire clamps of different shapes, double-layer wiring can be achieved, resulting in a continuous "T-shaped" connection of the trunk line. Others use a U-shaped base plate with a T-shaped rotating component. The T-shaped rotating component connects to an upper pressure plate, and the U-shaped base plate has a lower pressure plate. Wiring is achieved through the cooperation of these two components.
[0004] However, these existing branch terminals have several drawbacks in practical use. Firstly, most branch terminals lack a structure that intuitively distinguishes the phase sequence of electrical components, making it difficult for workers to quickly identify different phase sequences during wiring. This can easily lead to incorrect wiring, affecting the normal operation of the circuit and potentially causing safety accidents. Secondly, the wire sequence marking function is insufficient, failing to provide personalized markings based on the actual needs of the client. In scenarios with multiple branch connections, finding the correct wire sequence is difficult, significantly reducing wiring efficiency and increasing the difficulty of later maintenance. Thirdly, the existing branch terminals are structurally unsuitable for flexible splicing to accommodate different numbers of outgoing lines, and their installation methods are not flexible enough to adapt well to various installation environments. For example, some branch terminals only support a single installation method, or their installation structure is unstable, making them prone to detachment.
[0005] Therefore, it is necessary to study LDB branch terminals. Utility Model Content
[0006] To address the problems mentioned in the background art, the purpose of this utility model is to provide an LDB branch terminal, which has the advantages of easy and intuitive differentiation of power phase sequence and wire sequence, convenient splicing to increase the number of outgoing lines, and flexible installation method. It solves the problems of existing branch terminals having unintuitive differentiation of phase sequence and wire sequence, low wiring efficiency, difficulty in flexible splicing to adapt to different outgoing line requirements, and insufficient installation method.
[0007] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: an LDB branch terminal, comprising a terminal housing, a cable inlet hole at the center of one end of the terminal housing, at least six evenly arranged outlet holes at the other end of the terminal housing, a spare hole for bridging cable installation on one side of the terminal housing, an installation opening at the top of the terminal housing, and the installation opening communicating with the cable inlet hole, outlet hole and spare hole respectively, a connector being snapped into the interior of the installation opening, a cover being snapped into the top of the installation opening, a snap-fit groove being opened at the top of the cover, a marking strip being snapped into the top of the snap-fit groove, a snap-fit hole being opened at the top of the cover, a color marking block being snapped into the top of the snap-fit hole, a slot and a limiting groove being opened on one side of the terminal housing, and a buckle and a limiting point adapted to the slot and the limiting groove being fixedly connected to the other side of the terminal housing, and the buckle and the limiting point are used in conjunction with the slot and the limiting groove respectively.
[0008] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the bottom of the terminal housing is symmetrically fixedly connected with a mounting base, the surface of the mounting base is provided with screw holes, and the bottom of the terminal housing is fixedly connected with an elastic locking foot that can be connected to an external guide rail.
[0009] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, one side of the connector is provided with a main connector and a spare connector, and the main connector and the spare connector are respectively provided in correspondence with the cable inlet hole and the spare hole. The other end of the connector is provided with at least six evenly arranged outlet holes, and the outlet holes are respectively in one-to-one correspondence with the outlet holes.
[0010] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the top of the connector is provided with several wire pressing ports, and the several wire pressing ports are respectively connected to the main connector, the spare connector and the outlet connector, and the internal thread of the wire pressing port is connected with a wire pressing screw.

The bottom of the terminal housing 1 is fixedly connected with an elastic locking foot 15 that can be connected to an external guide rail.
[0024] As a technical optimization of this utility model, by setting screw holes 14 and elastic clips 15, two installation methods are provided. The client can fix the terminal on the plane by passing screws through screw holes 14, or directly use elastic clips 15 to quickly connect with the peripheral guide rail, which enhances the flexibility and adaptability of installation.
[0025] refer to Figure 4 One side of the connector 6 is provided with a main connector and a spare connector, and the main connector and the spare connector are respectively provided with the cable inlet hole 2 and the spare hole 4. The other end of the connector 6 is provided with at least six evenly arranged outlets, and the outlets are respectively provided with the outlet holes 3.

The main cable is connected to the main terminal of the connector 6 through the cable inlet hole 2. After being distributed by the connector 6, the current is transmitted to each branch through the outlet corresponding to the outlet hole 3. When multiple terminals are connected in series, the spare hole 4 is used in conjunction with the spare port of the connector 6 through the bridging wire to realize the current transmission and increase the number of outlets (e.g., a product with 6 outlets can be spliced to reach 12 outlets). The removable baffle on the inner wall of the spare hole 4 can close the hole to prevent foreign objects from entering when not in use. The color marking block 9 on the cover 7 is used to... The snap-fit holes are used to visually distinguish the phase sequence of the power supply. The marking strip 8 is installed through the snap-fit groove of the cover 7 and can be printed with numbers to facilitate the identification of the wire sequence.
