[0021] Example Please see Figures 1-6 In this embodiment of the present invention, an AC output cable connector includes a male connector 1 and a female connector 9. The male connector 1 has several mounting slots 101 arranged in an alternating stacked manner. A male terminal 2 is provided in the mounting slot 101. The female connector 9 is fixedly connected to the male connector 1 by screws 10. The female connector 9 has a female terminal 7 corresponding to the male terminal 2, and the male terminal 2 is inserted into the female terminal 7. A female crown spring 8 is symmetrically provided in the female terminal 7 corresponding to the male terminal 2. The male terminal 2 and the female crown spring 8 make multiple surface contacts due to compression.
[0022] Specifically, the male connector 1 and the female connector 9 are fixedly connected by screw 10. Screw 10 has higher strength, simpler structure, and better stability. By arranging the male terminals 2 in a staggered stacked manner, the space occupied by the mechanism can be reduced to adapt to more space-constrained mechanisms. The male connector 1 is set with two cable exit methods, left and right, to adapt to different assembly requirements. Two types of male connectors 1 are designed for left and right sides to achieve compatibility with the same female connector 9. The male terminal 2 has a cylindrical structure, and the female crown spring 8 has a concave elastic structure. When the male terminal 2 and the female terminal 7 are mated, the male terminal 2 and the female crown spring 8 make multiple surface contacts due to compression, forming a stable and reliable electrical connection.
[0023] The male terminal 2 is provided with a protective cover 3.
[0024] Specifically, by adding a protective cover 3 to the head of the male terminal 2, it is possible to prevent personnel from accidentally touching the male terminal 2 with their fingers during the assembly process, which could cause poor contact between the male terminal 2 and the female terminal 7.
[0025] The male terminal 2 is provided with a plastic C-ring 4, and a limiting groove 5 is provided on the male terminal 2 corresponding to the plastic C-ring 4.
[0026] Specifically, by designing a plastic C-ring 4 limiting structure, the male terminal 2 is prevented from exiting in the opposite direction of assembly.
[0027] The male terminal 2 has knurling 6 on the inner wall of the mounting groove 101.
[0028] Specifically, by designing the knurling 6 on the male terminal 2 to interfere with the inner wall of the mounting groove 101, rotation of the male terminal 2 within the mounting groove 101 is prevented.
[0029] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: In use, the male connector 1 and the female connector 9 are fixedly connected by screws 10. Screws 10 offer higher strength, simpler structure, and better stability. By arranging the male terminals 2 in a staggered, layered manner, the space occupied by the mechanism can be reduced, making it suitable for more space-constrained mechanisms. By setting the male connector 1 to have two cable exit methods (left and right), it can adapt to different assembly requirements. Furthermore, the design of two male connectors 1 (left and right) allows for compatibility with the same female connector 9. By adding a protective cap 3 to the head of the male terminal 2, it is possible to prevent damage during assembly. During assembly, if a person accidentally touches the male terminal 2 with their finger, it will cause poor contact between the male terminal 2 and the female terminal 7. The male terminal 2 is a cylindrical structure, and the female terminal crown spring 8 is a concave elastic structure. When the male terminal 2 and the female terminal 7 are mated, the male terminal 2 and the female terminal crown spring 8 will make multiple surface contacts due to compression, forming a stable and reliable electrical connection. By setting the knurled 6 on the male terminal 2 and interfering with the inner wall of the mounting groove 101, the male terminal 2 is prevented from rotating in the mounting groove 101. By designing the plastic C-ring 4 limiting structure, the male terminal 2 is prevented from exiting in the opposite direction of assembly.
[0030] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model, but the protection scope of the present utility model is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or changes made by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present utility model, based on the technical solution and the inventive concept of the present utility model, should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
