Conductive terminal for a power connector and its manufacturing method

摘要

This invention includes a conductive terminal for a power connector and its manufacturing method. The conductive terminal comprises: a base portion, a contact portion and a engagement portion. Said engagement portion is stamped so that it extends from the base portion over the contact portion with a free end thereof forming a engagement end. Said contact portion is a solid column-like body. Locking portions are provided on at least one side of said base portion to hold the conductive terminal in the dielectric housing of the power connector. The conductive terminal is directly formed by stamping without repeated bending, which decreases manufacture steps and reduces manufacture cost.
