Abstract
An electric connection box having a circuit formed inside a case (upper case) by arranging vertical bus bars in parallel inside the case. Terminals project from one side of each of the vertical bus bars. Pressure welding tabs having a pressure-welding slot respectively and pressure-welding pieces project from the other side of each of the vertical bus bars, with the pressure welding tabs and the pressure-welding pieces vertical to a longitudinal direction of the vertical bus bars. The vertical bus bars are arranged in parallel, and the pressure-welding piece of the vertical bus bar is connected by pressure welding to the pressure-welding slot of the pressure-welding tab.
Claims5
An electric connection box having a circuit formed inside a case by arranging a plurality of vertical bus bars in parallel inside said case, comprising:
- a terminal, connected to an external circuit, projecting from a first side of each vertical bus bar of said vertical bus bars;
- a pressure welding tab, having a pressure-welding slot and projecting from a second side of said each vertical bus bar;
- and
- a pressure-welding piece bent in an “L” shape, the pressure welding tab and the pressure-welding piece projecting from said second side of said each vertical bus bar, wherein
- said first and second sides of said vertical bus bar are opposite each other,
- said pressure welding tab and said pressure-welding piece are spaced apart at certain intervals, and
- adjacent vertical bus bars of said plurality of vertical bus bars are connected to each other by connecting said pressure-welding piece of a first bar of said adjacent vertical bus bars to said pressure-welding slot of a second bar of said adjacent vertical bus bars.
