Electrical connection box
An electrical connection box includes: a frame main body; a lid assembled to the frame main body; a plate-shaped member sandwiched between the frame main body and the lid; and a bus bar which has a main body arranged on a surface of the plate-shaped member and a terminal portion bent from the main body toward the lid. The bus bar has a protrusion protruding from a side surface of the terminal portion. The lid has a bus bar holding portion into which the terminal portion is inserted. In the bus bar holding portion, a wall portion opposing the side surface of the terminal portion has a holding groove into which the protrusion is press-fitted.
1. An electrical connection box comprising:
a frame main body;
a lid assembled to the frame main body;
a plate-shaped member sandwiched between the frame main body and the lid; and
a bus bar that has a main body arranged on a surface of the plate-shaped member and a terminal bent from the main body toward the lid, wherein
the whole terminal is bent from the main body in a direction orthogonal to the main body,
the bus bar further has a protrusion protruding laterally from a side surface of the terminal,
the lid has a bus bar holding portion into which the terminal is inserted, and
in the bus bar holding portion, a wall portion opposing the side surface of the terminal has a holding groove into which the protrusion is press-fitted.
2. The electrical connection box according to claim 1 , wherein
all terminals bent with respect to the main body are bent toward a side of the lid in a plurality of the bus bars having the protrusions.
3. The electrical connection box according to claim 2 , wherein
a plurality of the plate-shaped members are arranged to be stacked between the frame main body and the lid,
a stepped portion is formed on a side of the plate-shaped member such that a first edge and a second edge protruding toward a direction orthogonal to the side with respect to the first edge are adjacent to each other, and
the plurality of plate-shaped members are stacked such that the first edge and the second edge are alternately overlapped.
4. The electrical connection box according to claim 2 , wherein
the protrusion is arranged at a base end of the terminal.
5. The electrical connection box according to claim 2 , wherein
the wall portion opposing the side surface of the terminal further has a guide groove to guide the terminal in the bus bar holding portion, and
a center line of the holding groove and a center line of the guide groove overlap each other when the wall portion opposing the side surface of the terminal is viewed from a front side.
6. The electrical connection box according to claim 1 , wherein
a plurality of the plate-shaped members are arranged to be stacked between the frame main body and the lid,
a stepped portion is formed on a side of the plate-shaped member such that a first edge and a second edge protruding toward a direction orthogonal to the side with respect to the first edge are adjacent to each other, and
the plurality of plate-shaped members are stacked such that the first edge and the second edge are alternately overlapped.
7. The electrical connection box according to claim 6 , wherein
the protrusion is arranged at a base end of the terminal.
8. The electrical connection box according to claim 6 , wherein
the wall portion opposing the side surface of the terminal further has a guide groove to guide the terminal in the bus bar holding portion, and
a center line of the holding groove and a center line of the guide groove overlap each other when the wall portion opposing the side surface of the terminal is viewed from a front side.
9. The electrical connection box according to claim 1 , wherein
the protrusion is arranged at a base end of the terminal.
10. The electrical connection box according to claim 9 , wherein
the wall portion opposing the side surface of the terminal further has a guide groove to guide the terminal in the bus bar holding portion, and
a center line of the holding groove and a center line of the guide groove overlap each other when the wall portion opposing the side surface of the terminal is viewed from a front side.
11. The electrical connection box according to claim 1 , wherein
the wall portion opposing the side surface of the terminal further has a guide groove to guide the terminal in the bus bar holding portion, and
a center line of the holding groove and a center line of the guide groove overlap each other when the wall portion opposing the side surface of the terminal is viewed from a front side.
