However, in alternative embodiments, such as in the embodiment of Fig. 5 B diagrams, the second electrical connection positioned at right side The contact extension 165 of device module 10 can omit, i.e., its right end face of second electrical connector module 10 on right side in itself can be with It is closing, now, it is not necessary to which single end part seal cap 9 is set.
According to some embodiments of the present invention, the fixed arm for extending to elastic clip 14 can be provided with the inwall of housing 11 Jut 122 between 146 and actuating arm 144, as shown in Fig. 3 B and Fig. 4 A, to play the fixed arm 146 of positioning elastic folder 14 With the effect of actuating arm 144.
In Fig. 3 A and 3B embodiment, the free end 147 of fixed arm 146 and the main part 161 of conducting terminal 16 The other end 162 is inserted in through hole 142.And the inwall of housing 11 is provided with notch part 124, the master of conducting terminal 16 The other end 162 in body portion 161 is being fixed in notch part 124 through after through hole 142.
Further, in the side relative with notch part 124 of housing 11 formed with for accommodating the of conducting terminal 16 One contact site 164A, 164B and the second contact site 165 receiving portion 126, in the illustrated embodiment, receiving portion 126 is along housing 11 thickness direction penetrates the housing.
Further as shown in Figure 3A, receiving portion 126 includes a partition wall 128, the main part 161 of conducting terminal it is described One end 163 is connected through partition wall 128 with first contact site 164A, 164B and the second contact site 165.
Further as shown in Figure 3 B, insert in the side wall relative with the fixed arm 146 of elastic clip 14 of passage 114 and formed greatly The guiding groove 130 perpendicular to side wall extension is caused, to receive the free end of moveable arm 141.
According to some embodiments of the present invention, reference picture 2, driving element 18 has cylindrical shape, and the side of housing 11 There is the top surface of arcs of recesses formed with U-shaped notch portion 132 and lug boss 134, lug boss 134 on wall.One electric connector mould The U-shaped notch portion 132 of block is suitable to coordinate with the lug boss 134 of another adjacent electrical connector module, to receive cylinder Driving element 18.
In the embodiment of Fig. 3 A diagrams, driving element 18 is the form of button post, and the button post is into barbell-shaped, i.e. The button post includes the middle thin body of rod 181, the first contact site 182 and the second contact site 183 of both ends slightly, so, thicker First contact site 182 facilitates the pressing of operator, and when driving element 18 contacts pressing elastic clip 14, thicker second connects Contact portion 183 increases the contact area of driving element 18 and elastic clip 14, is advantageous to pressing operation.
The structure of electric connector all parts is described in detail above, below, with reference to described above furtherly Each use state of bright electric connector according to an embodiment of the invention.
Fig. 3 A and 3B respectively illustrate perspective diagram of the electrical connector module in the state of wire is not inserted into Fig. 2 And schematic front view, wherein clear in order to illustrate, the lid 12 in Fig. 2 is removed.In the state that driving element 18 is not pressed Under, because the effect of the internal elastic forces of elastic clip 14, actuating arm 144 are outside (towards the direction in left side in figure) by driving element 18 Push away, and moveable arm 141 stops insertion passage 114, causes the through hole 142 of the elastic clip 14 not insertion passage with housing 11 114 alignment, now, wire 2 can not be inserted in electrical connector module 10 by inserting passage 114.
Fig. 4 A and 4B respectively illustrate perspective diagram of the electrical connector module in the state of wire is inserted into Fig. 2 And schematic front view, wherein clear in order to illustrate, the lid 12 in Fig. 2 is also removed.Fig. 4 C are Fig. 4 A partial enlarged drawing, its In clearly show wire insertion through hole in and and conductive terminal contacts.
As shown in figs. 4 a-4 c, the pressing (i.e. towards the direction on right side in figure) inside the receiving space towards housing 11 is passed through Driving element 18, actuating arm 144 drives moveable arm 141 to move to the right, to cause the through hole 142 of elastic clip 14 and housing 11 insertion passage 114 aligns, and now, wire 2 can insert the insertion of elastic clip 14 by the insertion passage 114 of housing 11 In hole 142.Then, driving element 18 is discharged, in the presence of elastic force, moveable arm 141 moves towards left side, so as to close Passage 114 is inserted, while the wire 2 inserted in housing 11 is flexibly clamped on conducting terminal 16, keeps wire 2 and conduction Terminal 16 electrically connects.
Therefore, by using the electrical connector module of the present invention, modular assembling can be carried out and form electric connector, with The electrical connection between the wire of varying number is realized, not only facilitates connection, also reduces number of parts, saved manufacturing cost.
Below, the method that brief description electrically connects multiple conducting wires using above-mentioned electric connector.
First, the quantity of the wire connected as needed, the electrical connector module 10 of respective numbers is chosen, each electricity Connector modules include:Housing 11 with the insertion passage 114 for being adapted for insertion into wire 2, the elastic clip being contained in housing 11 14 and conducting terminal 16 and for operating flexibility folder 14 driving element 18.
Then, the electrical connector module for the respective numbers that mutual closed assembly is chosen, the conducting end of an electrical connector module is made The conducting terminal 16 of son 16 and another adjacent electrical connector module makes electrical contact with, to form electric connector.It should be noted that This process can be performed by user, can also be performed according to the demand of user by supplier, i.e. supplier can will be pre-assembled Good component is supplied to user.
Then, the driving element 18 of each electrical connector module is operated, it is respective slotting to drive elastic clip 14 to open its Enter passage 114;
Then, the wire 2 with wire stripping end is inserted respectively in the insertion passage 114 of each electrical connector module;
