Abstract
A connector includes a housing provided with an accommodating cavity and a first opening communicating with the accommodating cavity; a circuit board disposed in the accommodating cavity and provided with a first signal connection point; a connection head disposed on the housing and including a second signal connection point for external device connection; and a switch disposed in the first opening, being respectively connected to the first signal connection point and the second signal connection point. The switch is used for controlling the connection or disconnection between the first signal connection point and the second signal connection point. In the above-mentioned manner, the connector and a heavy load may be disconnected by the switch when the connector is pulled out, so that risks of instant ignition and short circuit caused by the connector pulled out may be avoided, and safety accidents may be reduced.
