The upper claw 12 engages with the terminal engaging portion 14 of the soldering portion 6, and the lower claw 13 engages with the sleeve engaging portion 15 of the terminal sleeve 2. During assembly, first align the plug-in part 5 with the terminal socket 8, align the soldering part 6 with the terminal slot 9, and then insert it into the inner cavity of the terminal sleeve 2. Next, align the terminal fixing member 11 with the fixing member slot 10 and insert it into the inner cavity of the terminal sleeve 2, so that the upper claw 12 engages with the terminal locking part 14 and the lower claw 13 engages with the sleeve locking part 15. Finally, install the terminal sleeve 2 into the outer shell 1.
[0017] Preferably, the terminal latching part 14 is a through hole provided at the front end of the welding part 6, and the sheath latching part 15 is a groove provided at the bottom of the terminal sheath 2.
[0018] Preferably, a retaining strip 16 is integrally formed at the front end of the inner cavity of the terminal sleeve 2, and the front end of the plug portion 5 abuts against the retaining strip 16. The retaining strip 16 serves to position the front end of the flat terminal 3, thereby improving the stability of its connection.
