TERMINAL CONNECTION STRUCTURE AND ROTATIONAL SENSOR

摘要

Provided are a terminal connection structure capable of improving assembly workability, reducing manufacturing cost, and achieving long-term stability and a rotational sensor.  The terminal connection structure comprises: a case (3) on which a fitting trench (23) is formed; an output terminal (26) disposed in the case (3); an insulating substrate (4) which is disposed in the case (3) and on which a detection pattern is formed; and a connection terminal (5) fitted to the fitting trench (23) and electrically connecting between the output terminal (26) and the insulating substrate (4).  The connection terminal (5) comprises: an insertion portion (35) including a pair of elastic pieces separately disposed so as to face each other and inserted into the fitting trench (23); a clip portion (37) continuing to the end on the opposite side of the insertion end of one of the elastic pieces of the insertion portion (35), elastically sandwiching and holding the insulating substrate (4), and contacting the detection pattern; and an elastic contact portion (36) continuing to the end on the opposite side of the insertion end of the other one of the elastic pieces of the insertion portion (35) and elastically contacting the output terminal (26) by inserting the insertion portion (35) into the fitting trench (23).
