  • Patent number: 7108541
    Abstract: A press-contacting terminal includes a bottom plate, and press-contacting blades each projecting from the bottom plate and having a wire insertion portion formed therein. When a wire is forced into the wire insertion portion, the press-contacting terminal cuts a sheath of the wire, and is electrically connected to an exposed conductor of the wire. A chamfered portion is formed at an outer side portion of each press-contacting blade, and when the wire is forced into the wire insertion portion, the chamfered portion mainly receives a stress from the wire so as to prevent the press-contacting blade from tiling outwardly.
