  • Patent number: 11764508
    Abstract: A connection terminal for use with a plug-in terminal includes a terminal body and a tongue. The tongue extends from a first end of the terminal body along an axial direction of the connection terminal and defines a locking element. A first curled portion and a second curled portion are disposed oppositely on two sides of the terminal body. The first curled portion and the second curled portion define at least one first reinforcing rib and at least one second reinforcing rib, and include a first abutting portion and a second abutting portion. A plug-in space is formed between the first and second curled portions and the terminal body for receiving the plug-in terminal. With the plug-in terminal inserted into the plug-in space, the first abutting portion and the second abutting portion abut against the plug-in terminal, and the locking element locks the plug-in terminal within the plug-in space.

  • Publication number: 20230044221
    Abstract: A connector comprises a housing including an upper casing defining an aperture through which a wire is adapted to extend, and a lower casing defining a chamber receiving the upper casing. The chamber defines an opening that opens toward the upper casing. The upper casing is movable relative to the lower casing upon the exerting of a force on the upper casing such that the aperture and the opening at least partially overlap. A conductive terminal is disposed in the chamber of the lower casing and is adapted to tear an outer insulation of the wire arranged within the chamber to electrically connect to a conductor of the wire as the upper casing is moved toward the lower casing.

  • Publication number: 20220399654
    Abstract: A terminal comprises an insert sheet connecting part and a cable connecting part. The insert sheet connecting part defines a slot sized to receive an insert sheet. The slot is delimited by a bottom wall, a top wall and two side walls. The two side walls are formed by upwardly bent extensions of left and right sides of the bottom wall. The top wall defines two top wall portions formed by inwardly bent portions of the two side walls respectively. The top wall includes a protrusion extending toward the bottom wall, and a reinforcing rib extending from one side wall to the corresponding top wall portion formed by bending the one side wall.
