Electronic component with soldering-less terminal structure

A high-voltage electronic component comprising:

• a circuit board having a circuit pattern including a connection electrode provided on a front surface thereof;
• an insulating casing made of insulating resin and provided therein with a board receiving section of which one end is open;
• a board fixing rib for supporting said circuit board which is formed in said board receiving section so as to define a space between said front surface of said circuit board and an inner surface of said insulating casing;
• and
• a terminal conductor connected at one end thereof to said connection electrode on said circuit board and extending at the other end thereof to a side of a rear surface of said circuit board;
• said terminal conductor being formed of a single conductive metal plate by working;
• said one end of said terminal conductor being formed with an elastic contact terminal section which is interposedly supported between said front surface of said circuit board and said inner surface of said insulating casing and contacted with said connection electrode;
• said terminal conductor including an intermediate section extending along an end surface of said circuit board to the side of said rear surface of said circuit board.
