PRESSURE CONTACT TYPE CONNECTOR AND MANUFACTURING METHOD OF THE SAME

摘要

A pressure contact type connector (1) includes: an upper flat plate portion (1a) which extends in a flat plate shape; a lower flat plate portion (1b) which extends in a flat plate shape and is disposed below the upper flat plate portion (1a); a first spring portion (1c) which connects the upper flat plate portion (1a) and the lower flat plate portion (1b); and a second spring portion (1d) which extends upward from the lower flat plate portion (1b) and applies a resilient force to the upper flat plate portion (1a), in which the first spring portion (1c) and the second spring portion (1d) are wound about the upper flat plate portion (1a) when viewed from above in a plan view, and extend so that the first and second spring portions (1c and 1d) do not interfere with each other when being compressed and extended in the vertical direction, the first spring portion (1c) is formed to be bent so that a width dimension (W) in the vertical direction is larger than a thickness dimension (T) in a horizontal direction, and the second spring portion (1d) is formed to be bent so that a width dimension (W) in the vertical direction is larger than a thickness dimension (T) in the horizontal direction.
