Abstract

The present invention comprises a type of connector used to electrically connect a light source board and a driver board in LED lighting equipment, and the LED lighting equipment that uses this connector. The connector is mounted on the light source board, and comprises two or more conduction terminals, each of which comprises at least one flexible arm whose points of contact with the driver board can achieve an electronic connection between the light source board and the driver board. Compared to earlier models, the connector structure of the present invention is simple and easy to assemble and fabricate, facilitating large-scale automated production of LED lighting equipment and helping to reduce costs.
