Circuit board connecting structure and method of connecting the circuit board

摘要

A plurality of board connecting terminals 6 each having a board connecting portion 6a and a pressed-in portion 6b are fixed to an insulating connecting element 7 and thus integrally formed as a circuit board connecting terminal assembly TB. The board connecting portion 6a of each of the terminals 6 is inserted into a corresponding one of through holes 5b formed in the printed circuit board 5 in such a manner as to penetrate therethrough. Thus, the board connecting portion 6a of each of the terminals 6 is electrically connected thereto, so that the printed circuit board with the board connecting terminals are constituted. Then, a pressed-in portion 6b of each of the circuit connecting terminals 6 is press-fitted into a corresponding press-fitting hole and electrically connected to a corresponding one of the bus bars.
