CONNECTOR AND CONNECTION TERMINAL

摘要

A connector includes: a housing in which a communication groove that communicates between adjacent terminal accommodating chambers is formed in a partition wall; and a connection terminal having a terminal body section connected to a wire connection part. The terminal body section includes: a first side wall on which a male connection part is formed; a second side wall provided with a slit; and an elastic part and contact parts which are provided inside the terminal body section and which contact the male connection part inserted in the slit. The communication groove is provided at a position offset from the center in the vertical direction of the terminal accommodating chamber. The male connection part and the slit are provided at a position offset from the center in the vertical direction of the terminal body section so as to correspond to the communication groove.

1. A connector, comprising:
a housing provided with a plurality of terminal accommodating chambers respectively separated by a partition wall, the partition wall having a communication groove formed to communicate the terminal accommodating chambers that are adjacent with each other; and a connection terminal having a wire connection part to which wire is connected and a terminal body section connected to the wire connection part, wherein with mounting of the connection terminal in the housing, the adjacent terminal body sections contact with each other and the adjacent connection terminals are electrically connected, wherein the terminal body section comprises:
a first side wall on which a male connection part is formed, the male connection part being disposed along an extended direction from a front end to a rear end of the terminal body section and being protruded outward;a second side wall opposite to the first side wall, the second side wall being provided with a slit in which the male connection part can be inserted;a female contact part provided inside the terminal body section, the female contact part to be contact to the male connection part inserted in the slit;a front wall disposed in a direction that intersects with the extended direction of the terminal body section, the front wall being located at a front end of the terminal body section; anda rear wall opposite to the front wall, the rear wall being disposed at a rear end of the terminal body section, wherein the slit is formed so as to pass through the terminal body section along the extended direction of the terminal body section, wherein a cutout through which the male connection part can pass is formed in the front wall and the rear wall respectively at a position that aligns with the slit, wherein the communication groove is provided at a position offset from the center in the vertical direction of the terminal accommodating chamber, and wherein the male connection part and the slit are provided at a position offset from the center in the vertical direction of the terminal body section so as to correspond to the communication groove.
