MALE ELECTRIC TERMINAL HAVING EXCESSIVE STRESS PREVENTING MEANS

摘要

PURPOSE: To provide excessive stress preventing means for mutually engaging complementarily between beams. ;CONSTITUTION: A male electric terminal 10 having a rear end part 12 and a front alignment part 14 is punched from a thin plate metal material and molded. The alignment part is formed by means of at least three cantilever beams 34 extending forwardly so as to enable inward slacking movement between beams each other. The beams are formed so as to have an inwardly tilted free end 38, their mutually opposite disposition and shape is constituted so that when the beams are excessively slackened inwardly the inwardly tilted free end can be engaged with a rim part 40 of at least another inwardly tilted free end.;COPYRIGHT: (C)1993,JPO
