The electrical connector with power-on locking function as recited in claim 4, wherein: the first terminal comprises an electrode sleeve and a metal elastic sheet, wherein the electrode sleeve is inserted in the first inserting cavity, a third inserting cavity is formed in the electrode sleeve, in which the metal elastic sheet is in annular tight fit and penetrates through the second surface of the electrode sleeve, and one end, far away from the first inserting hole, of the electrode sleeve extends out of the first surface of the second insulating main body; the middle part of the metal elastic sheet is concavely arranged inwards to form a second elastic convex part which is used for being elastically matched with the matched complementary terminal.
6. The electrical connector with power-on locking function of claim 5, wherein: the power-on matching part comprises a micro electromagnet arranged in the movable space and positioned on one side of the movable space close to the sliding cavity, an elastic supporting piece which is arranged in the movable space and can move relative to the micro electromagnet along the inserting direction, and an armature which is arranged on the elastic supporting piece, wherein the elastic supporting piece and the armature are positioned on one side of the micro electromagnet far away from the sliding cavity, the first conductive end and the second conductive end are electrically connected with the micro electromagnet, and the locking end is fixedly connected on one side of the elastic supporting piece facing the first through hole; when the first conductive end and the second conductive end are not powered on, one end of the locking end, which is far away from the elastic supporting piece, is positioned in the first through hole, and the armatures and the micro electromagnets are distributed at intervals.
7. The electrical connector with power-on locking function as recited in claim 6, wherein: the first conductive end comprises a first metal elastic sheet, one end of the first metal elastic sheet is electrically connected to the micro electromagnet, the other end of the first metal elastic sheet is embedded into the insulating main body and penetrates into the first jack, and one end of the first metal elastic sheet, which extends into the first jack, is used for being elastically matched with the first complementary terminal.
8. A terminal structure, characterized in that: the pin header comprises a pin header in a rod-shaped structure, the pin header is provided with a mounting end used for being connected with a complementary type electric connector and a plugging end penetrating into a first jack defined in any one of claims 1 to 7 and matched with a conductive terminal group, a sliding groove spirally wound on the plugging end is concavely formed on the outer side wall of the plugging end from the end far from the plugging end towards the side close to the mounting end around the outer wall of the pin header, and the sliding groove is used for enabling a clamping part defined in any one of claims 1 to 7 to slide and penetrate into the sliding groove.
