Abstract
An electrical connector for a dynamo hub includes a fastening component, a hollow insulating component formed with first and second accommodating spaces and a passage, and an electrode unit including at least one electrode plate that has a welding section disposed in the second accommodating space. The fastening component includes a metallic surrounding wall adapted to be sleeved on a hub axle of the dynamo hub, and having an inner surface formed with a positioning protrusion to be inserted into a groove in the hub axle, and a radial through hole extending from the inner surface to the outer surface and to be radially aligned with the groove in the hub axle. The first accommodating space retains the fastening component therein, and the passage is in spatial communication with the first and second accommodating spaces and is radially aligned with the radial through hole.
