The mounting part 31 is installed and fixed in the storage chamber 11, and the wiring part 32 extends into the wiring frame 2. Clamping component 4, the clamping component 4 includes a fixing plate 41, a connecting rod 42 and a clamping claw 43, the fixing plate 41 is disposed on the wiring plate 3, the connecting rod 42 is connected to the fixing plate 41, and the clamping claw 43 is disposed on the connecting rod 42; The wiring screw 5 is threaded onto one end of the wiring frame 2 along the Z direction and passes through the fixing plate 41; When the wiring frame 2 moves along the Z direction, the two pressing blocks 21 push the gripper 43 to move along the X direction to clamp the wire.

[0015] Furthermore, the wiring board 3 is provided with a plurality of positioning posts 33, and the fixing plate 41 is provided with a plurality of positioning holes 44, wherein the plurality of positioning posts 33 and the plurality of positioning holes 44 are inserted and engaged in a one-to-one correspondence. Furthermore, the gripper 43 includes a connecting portion and two clamping flaps, the two clamping flaps being integrally connected to both ends of the connecting portion along the X direction; wherein, the clamping flaps are arranged in an arc shape.

[0016] In this technical solution, the electricity meter assembly consists of a base 1, a top cover, wiring components, and a circuit module that carries the functions of the electricity meter. The top cover is mounted on top of the base 1, completely covering the opening at the top of the base 1, thus achieving sealed protection for all the internal chambers of the base 1. The base 1 has a storage chamber 11 and a wiring chamber 12 inside. The storage chamber 11 is used to carry the electricity meter circuit module, and the wiring chamber 12 is used to accommodate the wiring components.

[0017] The wiring assembly consists of a wiring frame 2, a wiring plate 3, a clamping member 4, and a wiring screw 5. The wiring frame 2 is integrally installed in the wiring chamber 12 inside the base 1. Two extrusion blocks 21 are integrally formed on one side end face along the Y direction. The two extrusion blocks 21 are symmetrically arranged left and right along the X direction. A threaded through hole is opened at one end of the wiring frame 2 along the Z direction. The wiring screw 5 forms a threaded engagement structure with the wiring frame 2 through the threaded through hole.

[0018] The terminal block 3 is a one-piece molded component, consisting of two sections: a mounting section 31 and a wiring section 32. The mounting section 31 is completely inserted into the storage chamber 11 of the base 1, and its position is defined by adhering to the inner wall of the chamber. The wiring section 32 extends entirely into the internal space of the wiring frame 2. Multiple positioning posts 33 protrude upwards from the surface of the terminal block 3. These positioning posts 33 can be evenly arranged along the Y direction or arranged in a triangular shape.

[0019] The clamping component 4 can be made of plastic and consists of three sections connected in sequence: a fixing plate 41, a connecting rod 42, and a clamping claw 43. Multiple sets of positioning holes 44 are formed on the surface of the fixing plate 41. The number and arrangement of the positioning holes 44 correspond one-to-one with the positioning posts 33 on the wiring section 32. Each positioning post 33 is inserted into a corresponding positioning hole 44 to achieve the installation and fixation between the fixing plate 41 and the wiring plate 3. One end of the connecting rod 42 is vertically and integrally connected to the fixing plate 41, and the other end is connected to the clamping claw 43. The clamping claw 43 includes a connecting part and two clamping petals. The two clamping petals are integrally formed and connected to both ends of the connecting part along the X direction. Each clamping petal has an arc-shaped bending design, and the two arc-shaped clamping petals are arranged opposite each other. Under the action of external pressure, the two clamping petals can retract towards each other along the X direction, and the arc-shaped inner wall of the clamping petals can conform to the outer contour of the wire. Furthermore, several protrusions are also provided on the inner side of the clamping petals. By providing several protrusions on the curved inner wall, the clamping flaps can securely clamp the wire.

[0020] With the above structural design, during wire connection assembly, the wire to be connected is first fed in from the side of the terminal frame 2. Then, the terminal screw 5 is rotated, and the terminal screw 5 drives the entire terminal frame 2 to move towards the terminal part 32 in the Z direction by means of the thread. The terminal frame 2 and the terminal part 32 of the terminal plate 3 together clamp the exposed metal part of the wire, realizing the wiring connection. At the same time, the two pressing blocks 21 on the terminal frame 2 move synchronously. The pressing blocks 21 contact the outer wall of the two arc-shaped clamping petals and continuously apply an inward pushing force in the X direction. The two clamping petals are supported by the connecting part and converge towards each other in the X direction, so that the two arc-shaped clamping petals together hug the insulation shell of the wire and apply a clamping force to the insulation shell of the wire.

[0021] In summary, by using the junction box 2 and the junction plate 3 to clamp the metal part of the wire along the Z direction, and by using the movement of the junction box 2 to drive the pressing block 21 to push the clamping plates laterally, the two clamping plates clamp the insulation part of the wire along the X direction, which further enhances the clamping effect on the wire, achieves a stable connection of the wire, effectively prevents the wire from loosening or being pulled out by external forces, and improves the connection firmness.

[0022] Example 2:

[0023] This embodiment provides a wiring structure for an electricity meter, which, in addition to the technical solutions of the above embodiments, also has the following technical features.

[0024] Furthermore, a first wire pressing boss 22 is also provided on the end of the wiring frame 2 away from the wiring screw 5 along the Z direction; The wiring part 32 is provided with two second wire pressing bosses 34, and a connecting groove 35 is formed between the two second wire pressing bosses 34. The first pressure boss 22 and the connecting groove 35 are inserted and fitted together along the Z direction.

[0025] Through the above structural design, the wiring frame 2 and the wiring part 32 clamp the wires through the first wire pressing boss 22 and the second wire pressing boss 34 respectively. By utilizing the insertion and cooperation of the first wire pressing boss 22 and the connecting groove 35, the wires are bent while being clamped, which increases the pressing area and the resistance encountered when the wires are pulled, effectively preventing the wires from becoming loose or being pulled out, and improving the wiring firmness.

[0026] The embodiments of this application have been described above with reference to the accompanying drawings. Unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features in the embodiments of this application can be combined with each other. This application is not limited to the specific embodiments described above. The specific embodiments described above are merely illustrative and not restrictive.
