Abstract

An electricity connection box includes a housing which includes a first insertion port and a second insertion port, a first connection portion group made of connection portions which are provided inside the housing and to which electric wires of a first electric wire group are connected, and a second connection portion group made of connection portions which are provided inside the housing and to which electric wires of a second electric wire group are connected. The first electric wire group is inserted through the first insertion port, and the second electric wire group is inserted through the second insertion port. The first connection portion group is closer to the first insertion port than the second connection portion group. The second connection portion group is closer to the second insertion port than the first connection portion group.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. An electricity connection box, comprising:
a housing which accommodates an electronic component therein, and includes a first insertion port and a second insertion port;
a first connection portion group made of a plurality of first connection portions which are provided inside the housing and to which terminal parts of a first plurality of electric wires of a first electric wire group are connected;
a second connection portion group made of a plurality of second connection portions which are provided inside the housing and to which terminal parts of a second plurality of the electric wires of a second electric wire group are connected; and
a plurality of blocks which are provided inside the housing, each of the blocks being formed with a part of the first connection portions of the first connection portion group and a part of the second connection portions of the second connection portion group,
wherein the first plurality of the electric wires of the first electric wire group are inserted through the first insertion port, and the second plurality of the electric wires of the second electric wire group are inserted through the second insertion port,
wherein the first connection portion group is positioned to be closer to the first insertion port than the second connection portion group,
wherein the second connection portion group is positioned to be closer to the second insertion port than the first connection portion group,
wherein the first insertion port and the second insertion port are disposed at a first certain interval with respect to a predetermined direction of the housing, and
wherein the plurality of blocks extend along the predetermined direction, and are adjacent to each other along a direction that intersects with the predetermined direction.

2. The electricity connection box according to claim 1 ,
wherein the first connection portion group is positioned to be closer to the first insertion port than the second connection portion group in each of the plurality of blocks, and
wherein the second connection portion group is positioned to be closer to the second insertion port than the first connection portion group in each of the plurality of blocks.

3. The electricity connection box according to claim 2 ,
wherein the housing includes a third insertion port and a third connection portion group,
wherein the third insertion port is disposed at a second certain interval with respect to the predetermined direction from the first insertion port and the second insertion port,
wherein the third connection portion group is made of a plurality of third connection portions which are provided inside the housing and to which terminal parts of a third plurality of electric wires of a third electric wire group are connected,
wherein the third plurality of the electric wires of the third electric wire group are inserted through the third insertion port, and
wherein the third connection portion group is positioned to be closer to the third insertion port than the first connection portion group and the second connection portion group in each of the plurality of blocks.
