  • Patent number: 9172152
    Abstract: Embodiments of pressure welding terminals are provided including a pair of spring portions and a slit for press-fitting and retaining a conductive body disposed between the pair of spring portions by a fixed push-in amount. An upper edge of the conductive body is retained by the slit at a fixed position from an opening of the slit, and a region is provided where an area of a cross section of at least one of the spring portions on the lower side of the upper edge of the conductive body is smaller than an area of a cross section of the at least one spring portion at a position of the upper edge of the conductive body.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 9039441
    Abstract: An electrical connection terminal capable of reducing manufacturing cost of a connector and a probe, and preventing erroneous contact between the connection terminal and a continuity check pin at the time of a continuity check, and a connector using the same. The connection terminal includes a fixed piece to be fixed to a base of the connector, a coupling portion extending upward from the fixed piece, and a movable piece extending from the coupling portion in the direction facing the fixed piece. The connection terminal arranged side by side in the base further includes an extending portion for the continuity check provided in an end of the fixed piece, and a projection for the continuity check provided at an upper side of the movable piece or the coupling portion. The continuity check may be provided by use of the probe with two rows of check pins.

  • Publication number: 20130323988
    Abstract: A pressure welding terminal capable of pressure-welding and retaining a plurality types of electric wires having different diameters by a fixed push-in amount is provided. Therefore, in a pressure welding terminal in which a slit for press-fitting and retaining a conductive body is provided between a pair of spring portions and an upper edge of the conductive body retained by the slit is placed at a fixed position from an opening of the slit, a region where an area of a cross section of the spring portions arranged on the lower side of the upper edge of the conductive body, at least on one side is smaller than an area of a cross section of the spring portions at a position of the upper edge of the conductive body.
