Detailed Description

The present invention will be described in further detail with reference to the following embodiments.

As shown in fig. 1 to 12, the terminal of the present invention includes an insulating housing 100 and a releasing member 200, which are coupled to each other, and a clamping member 300. The insulating housing 100 has a continuous inner surface 110 inside, the inner surface 110 forms a cavity 111 communicating with the outside, the inner surface 110 has a fixing portion 120 protruding from the inner surface 110 into the cavity 111, the fixing portion 120 can fix the clamping member 300 in the cavity 111 and keep the clamping member 300 from moving, the fixing portion 120 of the insulating housing 100 can be inserted into the slot 301 to achieve quick positioning of the clamping member 300 when being installed in the insulating housing 100 and further fixing after being installed to prevent the clamping member 300 from being displaced in the insulating housing 100. The fixing portion 120 has a convex plate shape, a block shape, or a sheet shape, which is advantageous for insertion into the slit 301.

The insulating housing 100 further has a first passage 130 communicating with the cavity 111 and the clamping member 300 to allow an external wire to pass therethrough and to enable the external wire to be directly inserted into the clamping member 300. Direct insertion means that the external wire is not bent or folded while moving inside the first passage 130 until the front end of the wire is inserted into the clamping member 300 and clamped by the clamping member 300, that is, the wire is inserted into the terminal and fixed inside the terminal, requiring only one action. And when the external force is directly pulled on the wire, the front end of the wire does not depart from the clamping piece 300, unless enough external force is applied to the clamping piece 300, the clamping piece 300 can release the front end of the wire, but the wire or the front end of the wire cannot be popped out or pushed out, and the clamping state of the front end of the wire is just released, so two actions are needed if the wire is pulled out of the wiring terminal, firstly, the external force is applied to the clamping piece 300 to release the clamping state of the clamping piece 300, secondly, another external force is applied to the wire to pull out the wire.

The clamping member 300 has at least both clamping and conducting functions. The clamping function means that the front end of the wire can be clamped; the conductive function means that the leading end of the wire is brought into contact with the clamping member 300 and electrically connected to at least a part of the clamping member 300. In addition to this, the clip 300 can be stably held inside the cavity 111, and for this purpose, the clip 300 has a structure capable of being stably fitted inside the cavity 111, for example, the clip 300 has a slit 301 fitted with the protruding fixing portion 120.

The clamping member 300 has a conductive portion 310 and a clamping portion 320, and the conductive portion 310 may be made of a metal material with good conductivity or other materials, and in various embodiments of the present invention, the conductive portion 310 is made of copper. The clamping portion 320 has an elastic restoring function, and is fixedly connected to the conductive portion 310, for example, by riveting, welding, bonding or other fixing connection methods, or detachably connected to the conductive portion 310, for example, by inserting or clamping, which is not prone to relative displacement. In various embodiments of the present invention, the clamping portion 320 is made of stainless steel. The clip 300 has at least 1 conductive part 310 and 2 clamping parts 320 connected side by side.

The clamping portion 320 includes a fixing section 321, a bending section 322 and a clamping section 323, the fixing section 321 and the clamping section 323 are connected through the bending section 322 and form a certain angle, in each embodiment of the present invention, the fixing section 321 and the clamping section 323 form an acute angle α, in other embodiments, if the limitation of space size is not considered, the fixing section 321 and the clamping section 323 can also form an obtuse angle, but for the terminal requiring to reduce volume as much as possible, forming an acute angle α is a preferred embodiment, the bending section 322 has an arc bending shape, in addition to connecting the fixing section 321 and the clamping section 323, a buffer for elastic return is provided for the clamping section 323, the processing difficulty is reduced, and the strength of the whole clamping member 300 is improved.

The fixing section 321 is used for connecting with the conductive part 310, and the clamping section 323 is used for clamping the front end of the wire in cooperation with the conductive part 310. The space between clamping section 323 and the conductive part 310 is used for penetrating the front end of wire, for making can adapt to the wire of more specifications (diameters) between clamping section 323 and the conductive part 310, protects the wire simultaneously and is not broken by the pinches because of the too big clamping force, and the edge that clamping section 323 and conductive part 310 contacted is equipped with breach 330, and for the stability that improves the clamping wire, breach 330 is located clamping section 323's middle part, in each embodiment of the utility model, clamping section 323 forms two short arms 340 in breach 330 both sides, and short arm 340 and conductive part 310 are contactless. The notch 330 may be processed in various shapes as required, and the notch 330 is preferably formed in an arc shape in consideration of the shape of the cross section of the wire and the fixation.

The conductive portion 310 includes a connection segment 311, a connection segment 312, and a bottom portion 313, which are connected in sequence, and may be integrally formed by using a copper sheet. When the leading end of the wire is inserted into the notch 330 and pressed against the lower surface of the wire connection section 311 by the clamping section 323, the wire connection section 311 is electrically connected to the leading end of the wire. The connection section 312 is used for connecting the connection section 311 and the bottom portion 313, and in various embodiments of the present invention, a plurality of through holes 314 are disposed on the connection section 312, so as to reduce the cost of the copper sheet and facilitate heat dissipation. The bottom portion 313 is used for connecting with the fixing segment 321 to connect the conductive portion 310 and the clamping portion 320. In various embodiments of the present invention, the fixing section 321 has a hole 350 for matching and fixing with the bump 360 on the bottom 313; meanwhile, a gap 301 is formed between the adjacent bending sections 322 and the adjacent clamping sections 323, the bottom 313 is provided with buckling arms 315 extending out of the end of the bottom, the width of each buckling arm 315 is slightly smaller than that of the gap 301, the buckling arms 315 and the gap 301 are arranged in a one-to-one correspondence manner, the buckling arms 315 penetrate through the gap 301 and are bent to buckle the fixing sections 321, and the fixed connection between the conductive part 310 and the clamping part 320 is further realized. Of course, the conductive portion 310 and the clamping portion 320 may also adopt other connection methods, such as bonding, welding, etc., and are not described in detail.

In order to stably mount the clamping member 300 inside the insulating housing 100 and to make the structure of the clamping member 300 more compact, the terminal section 311 is parallel to the bottom portion 313 and the fixing section 321, and the connecting section 312 is perpendicularly connected to the terminal section 311 and the bottom portion 313, respectively.

The insulation housing 100 is detachably connected with the unlocking member 200, the unlocking member 200 is provided with a movable part 210 which can rotate or displace relative to the clamping member 300, and the movable part 210 can firstly penetrate through a first through hole 140 arranged on the insulation housing 100 and extend into the cavity 111, and then continuously penetrates through a second through hole 370 arranged on the conductive part 310 and contacts the clamping member 300. In various embodiments of the present invention, the short arm 340 does not contact the lower surface of the wire connection section 311, but is located below the second through hole 370 on the wire connection section 311. The movable portion 210 contacts the short arm 340 of the clamping section 323 and presses the short arm 340 when a user directly or indirectly applies an external force to the movable portion 210, so that the short arm 340 drives the clamping section 323 to move towards the lower surface far away from the wire connecting section 311, the pressure borne by the front end of the wire is relieved, and at the moment, the wire can be pulled out from the wire connecting terminal by applying a pulling force to the wire. In the same manner as described above, the clamping section 323 can be moved away from the wire connecting section 311, and a pigtail can be inserted between the clamping section 323 and the wire connecting section 311. After all the external force is removed, the elastic potential energy of the clamping section 323 accumulated due to the previous compression causes the clamping section 323 to move toward the lower surface of the wire connecting section 311 again until the flexible wire is clamped. In the case of a hard wire, the clamping section 323 can be pushed away from the wire connecting section 311 by the force of the front end of the hard wire, so that the front end of the hard wire is directly inserted between the clamping section 323 and the wire connecting section 311 without applying an external force.

Each movable portion 210 corresponds to one clamping portion 320, and further, each unlocking member 200 corresponds to one clamping portion 320, so as to realize independent locking and unlocking of each wire. In the embodiments of the present invention, the movable portion 210 includes the pressing plate 211 and the pressing block 212 which are integrally formed, and the pressing plate 211 has a downward-concave arc surface suitable for being pressed by a human finger, so as to disperse the reaction force applied to the finger when pressing, thereby improving the operation comfort. The press piece 212 serves to press and drive the clamping section 323 away from the lower surface of the wire connection section 311, i.e., out of contact with the conductive portion 310, when pressed. The pressing block 212 is in surface contact with the clamping section 323, the contact surface of the pressing block 212 (the surface in contact with the clamping section 323) is a plane, and the non-contact surface of the pressing block 212 is transited by a smooth arc surface or a short plane, so that the abrasion between the parts is reduced. In various embodiments of the present invention, the pressing block 212 is a pair symmetrically disposed on the lower surface of the pressing plate 211, and accordingly, the first through hole 140 disposed on the insulating housing 100 and the second through hole 370 disposed on the conductive portion 310 are a pair. Compared with a single pressing block 212, the pair of pressing blocks 212 can improve the stability of operation, prevent the clamping section 323 from being incapable of being separated or completely separated from being contacted with the wiring section 311 due to uneven stress, and effectively prolong the service life of the clamping section 323 due to the fact that the stress area of the clamping section 323 is increased.

The junction 220 of the unlocking member 200 and the insulating housing 100 has a thickness smaller than that of the pressing plate 211 of the movable portion 210, i.e., the junction 220 has a groove 221 thinning the thickness of the junction 220, but does not break the junction 220 during use. When the movable portion 210 is pressed down, the movable portion 210 actually pivots at the joint 220 by a small angle, and in order to allow the movable portion 210 to pivot smoothly when an external force is applied, a space for allowing the movable portion 210 to pivot, that is, a groove 221, needs to be provided at the joint 220. In each embodiment of the present invention, the cross section of the groove 221 is triangular, but the cross section may also be trapezoidal, arc, or semicircular, as long as the opening width of the groove 221 is not less than the width of the bottom of the groove; of course, if the pressing plate 211 is long enough, the angle required for pressing down may be small enough, and the opening width of the groove 221 may be smaller than the width of the bottom of the groove, but the processing difficulty may be increased. When the external force disappears, the movable portion 210 may reversely pivot to return to the original position under the action of its elastic potential energy, or the movable portion 210 may be forced to return to the original position during the returning process of the clamping section 323. Of course, other connection means, such as a pin connection, may be used to allow the movable portion 210 to be rotationally depressed. The movable portion 210 may be detachably connected to the insulating housing 100 in other non-rotational manners, as long as the movable portion 210 can move toward the clamping section 323 and press the clamping section 323 under the action of external force while being connected to the insulating housing 100, that is, the movable portion 210 is detachably connected to the insulating housing 100. In the first embodiment of the present invention, the insulation housing 100 has the insertion hole 104 which is inserted in cooperation with the elastic pin 240 of the unlocking member 200 to fix the unlocking member 200.

The insulating housing 100 is further provided with a test hole 150 for detecting voltage and current.

In various embodiments of the present invention, the clamping member 300 is loaded from the front opening of the insulating housing 100 and the wires are inserted from the rear end of the insulating housing 100, i.e., the opening of the first channel 130 is located at the rear end of the insulating housing 100; the insulating housing 100 has a detachable sealing cover 160, when the clamping member 300 is installed in the insulating housing 100, the sealing cover 160 is engaged with the front opening of the insulating housing 100, and the insertion hole 104 is located on the sealing cover 160 for being engaged with the pin 240 of the unlocking member 200. The sealing cover 160 is provided with a reinforcing rib 161 inside for enhancing the strength of the sealing cover 160, and can be matched with other parts of the insulating housing 100 to further abut against the clamping member 300 inside the insulating housing 100 to prevent the clamping member 300 from being displaced.

In the second embodiment of the present invention, the insertion hole 104 ' is located at the top of the insulating housing 100 ', the unlocking member 200 ' has the sealing portion 160 ', the top of the insulating housing 100 ' is provided with the upper clamping hole 180 ', and is clamped with the first clamping pin 162 ' of the sealing portion 160 ', the top of the insulating housing 100 ' is further provided with the lower clamping hole 190 ', and is clamped with the second clamping pin 163 ' of the sealing portion 160 ', the inner surface of the sealing portion 160 ' is provided with the reinforcing rib 161 ' for enhancing the strength of the sealing portion 160 ', and meanwhile, the clamping member 300 located inside the insulating housing 100 ' is further supported, so as to prevent the clamping member 300 from shifting, and the insulating housing 100 ' is provided with the groove 191 ' for the reinforcing rib 161 ' to be clamped in, so that the connection between the insulating housing 100 ' and the unlocking member 200 ' is tighter. In the second embodiment of the present invention, since the unlocking member 200 ' is directly coupled to the insulating housing 100 ' and seals the insulating housing 100 ' after the coupling, the sealing cover 160 of the first embodiment is omitted, and thus the insertion hole 104 and the elastic pin 240 of the first embodiment are not provided. All the other is the same as the first embodiment of the present invention, and the description is omitted.

The bottom of the housing 100 is also provided with universal pins 170 for securing the terminals to the electrical component plane.
