摘要

A joint connector extending structure includes first and second connector terminals, first and second housings for housing the first and second connector terminals, and a joint connector configured to fit in first and second cutouts of the first and second housings laid on top of one another to engage with male contacts of the first and second connector terminals housed in the first and second housings thereby to conduct the first and second connector terminals and integrate the first and second housings.

主权项

1. A joint connector extending structure comprising:
a plurality of connector terminals each having a main body and a male contact protruding from the main body at one side of a traverse direction of the main body; a first housing for housing a first connector terminal of the plurality of connector terminals and having a first cutout through which the male contact of the first connector terminal housed in the first housing is visible; a second housing for housing a second connector terminal of the plurality of connector terminals and having a second cutout through which the male contact of the second connector terminal housed in the second housing is visible; and a joint connector configured to fit in the first and second cutouts of the first and second housings laid on top of one another in a longitudinal direction perpendicular to the traverse direction to engage with the male contact of the first connector terminal housed in the first housing and the male contact of the second connector terminal housed in the second housing thereby to conduct the first and second connector terminals and integrate the first and second housings, wherein the first and second cutouts of the first and second housings laid on top of one another in the longitudinal direction are in communication with each other in the longitudinal direction.
