The electrical connector of LED light owns the advantages of simple structure and high reliability.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. A LED light apparatus, comprising: a driver board; a light source board; and an electrical connector device for electrically connecting a light source board and a driver board of an LED light, the electrical connector device comprising an input terminal and an output terminal, wherein one end of input terminal is fixed on the driver board of the LED light and electrically connected to the driver board, the output terminal comprises a conductive terminal, an elastic clipping portion, and a resistance portion, the conductive terminal comprises a conductive pin, the conductive pin is fixed on the light source board and electrically connected to the light source board, the elastic clipping portion and the resistance portion are placed on the conductive terminal, and when assembled, the other end of the input terminal elastically touches one end of the elastic resistance portion and the resistance portion touches the other end of the elastic clipping portion, and the other end of the input terminal elastically touches a top of the elastic clipping portion, and the resistance portion touches a middle of the elastic clipping portion, and wherein the resistance portion is a rigid structure, one end of the resistance portion is fixed on the conductive terminal, and the other end of the resistance portion touches the middle of the elastic clipping portion. 2. The LED light apparatus of claim 1 wherein the resistance portion is an elastic clip structure, one end of the resistance portion is fixed on the conductive terminal, and the other end of the resistance portion is bent and then touches elastic clipping portion. 3. The LED light apparatus of claim 2 , wherein the resistance portion is a ‘door’ shape bending structure, and the other end of the resistance portion touches the elastic clipping portion. 4. The LED light apparatus of claim 1 , wherein multiple LED components are disposed in peripheral side of the light source board. 5. The LED light apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the bottom of the elastic clipping portion is connected to the conductive terminal, and the top of the elastic clipping portion is bent with a tilt angle toward the direction away from the conductive terminal. 6. The LED light apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the other end of the input terminal elastically touches the top of the elastic clipping portion, and the resistance portion touches the middle of the elastic clipping portion. 7. The LED light apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the resistance portion is a rigid structure, one end of the resistance portion is fixed on the conductive terminal, and the other end of the resistance portion touches the middle of the elastic clipping portion. 8. The LED light apparatus of claim 1 , characterized in that: the resistance portion is an elastic clip structure, one end of the resistance portion is fixed on the conductive terminal, and the other end of the resistance portion is bent and then touches elastic clipping portion. 9. The LED light apparatus of claim 8 , wherein the resistance portion is a ‘door’ shape bending structure, and the other end of the resistance portion touches the elastic clipping portion. 10. The LED light apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the electrical connector comprises two elastic clipping portions, the two elastic clipping portions are disposed face to face, and the elastic clipping portions separately elastically touch two side walls of the input terminal. 11. The LED light apparatus of claim 10 , wherein the conductive terminal has a through hole, the elastic clipping portions are symmetrically disposed at two sides of the through hole, the input terminal is through the through hole and electrically connected to the elastic clipping portions. 12. The LED light apparatus of claim 10 , wherein there is an opening in each elastic clipping portion so that each elastic clipping portion forms a comb structure. 13. The LED light apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the driver board is fixed to a cap housing of the LED light apparatus.
