ELECTRICAL CONNECTOR FOR CHRISTMAS LAMP TREES
20170373420 · 2017-12-28 ·

The utility model discloses an electrical connector for Christmas lamp trees which comprises an upper and a lower connecting base, first columnar electrodes and elastic devices are arranged in the upper connecting base, second arc-shaped electrodes are arranged in the lower connecting base, and the elastic devices cause the first electrodes to tightly abut against the second electrodes. The first columnar electrodes and the second arc-shaped electrodes form a point-to-surface contact, so that the reliability of electrical connection is increased greatly, allowing a Christmas lamp tree to be universal to high and low voltages. Moreover, sufficient contact between upper and lower layers and natural effect of the Christmas lamp tree can still be ensured even if the Christmas lamp tree is subjected to an external force, and multiple sets of first and second electrodes are electrically connected in one-to-one correspondence, leading to diversified functions of the Christmas lamp tree.
