As shown in drawing 1, this product includes base box 1, cover plate 2, conductive component and cable presser 3. The conductive component is installed inside the base box 2 and covered by the cover plate3, which is fixed to the base box1 by screws 4. The cable presser3 plate is connected to the base box 1 to press the cloth belt 18 onto the cover plate 2.

[0017] The conductive component includes conductive plate 5, conductive copper needle 6, cables 7, and copper needle cover8. The conductive copper needle6 and the cables 7 are installed on the conductive plate 5 and electrically connected to each other. The conductive copper needle 6 is in two rows, corresponding to positive+ and negative-, and is connected to one cable 7.

[0018] The needle tip of conductive copper needle 6 is vertically facing upwards, and the copper needle cover 8 is located above the 6conductive copper needle. The hole 9 is provided on the copper needle cover 8 for the conductive copper needle 6 to penetrate.

[0019] There is a compressible spring 10 between the copper needle cover 8 and the base box 1, and movable hole 11 is provided on the cover plate 2 for the copper needle cover 8 to move up and down. Under the elastic force of the compression spring 10, the copper needle cover 8 is pushed up and protrudes from the movable hole 11, so that the conductive copper needle 6 is hidden inside the copper needle cover 8 (see drawing 2). When the cable presser 3 presses the cloth belt 18 onto the cover plate 2, the copper needle cover 8 can be pressed downwards to allow the conductive copper needle 6 to pass through the holes 9 of the copper needle cover 8 (see drawing 3), and pierce into the cloth belt 18 to achieve conductivity.

[0020] Preferably, one end of the cable presser 3 is hinged on the base box 1, the other end of the cable presser 3 is equipped with a buckle 12, and the base box 1 is equipped with a slot 13 that matches the buckle 12. The buckle 12 is a press type spring buckle 12, and there is a corresponding elastic button 14 on the cable presser 3. The press type spring buckle 12 is a mature existing technology, and its specific structure and working principle will not be elaborated here.

[0021] In addition, in other embodiments, the cable presser 3 can also be connected and locked with the base box 1 in other ways, as long as the cloth belt 18 can be pressed tightly on the cover plate 2.

[0022] Preferably, the hinge end of the cable presser 3 is equipped with a row of teeth 16 for clamping the braided wire 18, which can avoid displacement of the cloth belt 18 after installation and improve connection stability.

[0023] Preferably, the edge of the copper needle cover 8 is equipped with a blocking edge 17 to prevent the copper needle cover 8 from detaching from the movable hole 11. By hanging the cover plate 2 with the blocking edge 17, the copper needle cover 8 can be prevented from completely detaching from the movable hole 11.
