Improved branching connector and electrical connector box assembly

摘要

Connection terminals 25 extending from bus bars 23 are projected from an upper case 21. A circuit board 24a closest to the upper case 21 is formed integrally with terminal supports 32 supporting the connection terminals 25 perpendicularly on the circuit board 24a. Insertion openings 35 are formed at the bottom of connector mounting openings 27 through which the connection terminals 25 project. The terminal supports 32 supporting the connection terminals 25 are inserted through the insertion openings 35. The terminal supports 32 and the insertion openings 35 are disposed so that, when an inner side surface of the upper case 21 abuts the upper surface of a circuit unit 20 and the two are assembled with proper alignment, upper end surfaces 32a of the terminal supports 32 are coplanar with a bottom surface 27a on which are disposed the insertion openings 35, thereby allowing for visual confirmation of proper alignment.
