The connector housing is the core load-bearing structure, the horizontal and vertical mounting bases are adapted to different installation directions, the connecting thread is used for input component connection, and the heat dissipation fin assists in heat dissipation.

[0008] The output assembly consists of an output connector, a connector protective housing, a shaft seat, an assembly shaft, a torsion spring, a lever, and a protective cover. The output connector is adapted to one end of the connector body. The connector protective housing covers the outside of the output connector. The shaft seat is installed on the top of the connector protective housing. The assembly shaft passes through the shaft seat. The torsion spring is sleeved on the assembly shaft. The lever is connected to the assembly shaft. The protective cover is connected to the lever. The output connector is used for signal / power output. The protective housing protects the output connector. The shaft seat and assembly shaft provide a basis for the rotation of the protective cover. The torsion spring enables the protective cover to automatically reset. The lever facilitates manual opening of the protective cover.

[0009] The input component includes an input connector, a clamping block, and a threaded fastening sleeve. The input connector is connected to the other end of the connector body. The clamping block is set at an equal angle around the input connector. The threaded fastening sleeve is threadedly connected to the connector body via a connecting thread. The input connector is connected to the input wire. The clamping block assists in clamping. The threaded fastening sleeve locks the input connection through thread engagement, improving tightness.

[0010] As a further improvement of this utility model: the heat dissipation fins are multiple and evenly distributed on the surface of the connector body, and the heat dissipation fins are provided with heat dissipation guide holes to enhance the heat dissipation performance of the connector body and accelerate heat dissipation.
