PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a connection terminal which needs a small area for mounting a substrate and can effectively utilize the substrate; a connection structure between terminals; and a connection structure between substrates.SOLUTION: A male terminal 1 comprises: a box body 20 which is formed by folding a metal plate, and is formed of a rectangular bottom face 21, side faces 22 and 23 disposed consecutively in a right and left width direction of the bottom face 21, and a top surface 24 disposed consecutively to at least one of the side faces 22 and 23; and a terminal part 10 which has a plate-like contact part 13 that extends from under the top surface 24 of the box body 20 to the outside of the box body 20 in a horizontal direction. The terminal part 10 has: a rising part 11 which extends from an end face in a longitudinal direction orthogonal to the width direction of the bottom face 21 toward a direction of the top surface 24; a connection part 12 which extends from the rising part 11 to the outer direction of the box body 20 while changing the direction to a horizontal direction in the vicinity of the top surface 24; and the contact part 13 disposed consecutively to the end face of the connection part 12. |
