Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
A connection structure for a terminal fitting ( 20 ) includes the terminal fitting ( 20 ) with a pair of resilient deforming portions ( 22 ), a through hole ( 11 ) formed in a circuit board ( 10 ) as a connection target of the terminal fitting ( 20 ) and into which the pair of resilient deforming portions ( 22 ) are press-fitted while being resiliently displaced toward each other, and locking portions ( 28 ) which are formed by recessing outer edges ( 24 ) of the resilient deforming portions ( 22 ) and engaged with the inner peripheral surface of the through hole ( 11 ) when the resilient deforming portions ( 22 ) are press-fit in the through hole ( 11 ).
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1. A terminal fitting, comprising: first and second resilient deforming portions having inner surfaces facing each other and opposite outer surfaces, front and rear surfaces extending between the inner and outer surfaces, the first and second resilient deforming portions being configured to be press-fit into a hole of a connection target while being resiliently displaced substantially toward each other and having a maximum displacement area where an amount of r…
