Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
A terminal fitting includes a fastening portion and a wire connection portion. The fastening portion is formed with an installation insertion hole through which a fixing member is inserted. The wire connection portion extends from a peripheral edge portion of the fastening portion. A notch is provided in the fastening portion so as to extend along the peripheral edge of an opening of the installation insertion hole and between the installation insertion hole and the wire connection portion. A through hole or a thin recessed portion is formed on the notch at an intersection portion between the notch and an axis in an extending direction of the wire connection portion.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1. A terminal fitting comprising: a fastening portion formed with an installation insertion hole through which a fixing member is inserted; and a wire connection portion extending from a peripheral edge portion of the fastening portion, wherein a notch is provided in the fastening portion so as to extend along the peripheral edge of an opening of the installation insertion hole and between the installation insertion hole and the wire connection portion, and a through hole or a thin recessed portion is formed on the notch at an intersection portion between the notch and an axis in an extending direction of the wire connection portion. 2. The terminal fitting according to claim 1 , wherein a plurality of wire connection portions extend from the peripheral edge portion of the fastening portion so as to protrude in a radial direction of the installation insertion hole. 3. The terminal fitting according to claim 2 , wherein the wire connection portion includes a terminal connection portion which is integrally formed with the fastening portion so as to protrude from the peripheral edge portion of the fastening portion, and a connecting terminal which includes a fastening connection portion caulked to the terminal connection portion and is connected to a wire terminal. 4.
