A terminal has a bottom wall, a pair of side walls, an upper wall, an elastic contact portion that is freely elastically deformable in a direction substantially vertical with respect to the bottom wall, an elastic receiving surface portion that opposes the elastic contact portion, an engaging/retaining portion on the bottom wall that is freely displaceable by its elastic deformation made in a direction substantially vertical with respect to the bottom wall, and a stopper. The side walls respecti...

A terminal includes a fixing section that is fixed to a vehicle body, and a removable section to which an electric wire is attached. A line of weakness is provided between the fixing section and the removable section. When the electric wire is pulled during disassembly and/or recycling of the vehicle body, the terminal breaks at the line of weakness and the electric wire can be removed from said fixing section while the fixing section remains fixed to the vehicle body.

A low cost, a low power consumption and a small size are three very important factors for a mobile communication terminal. A great problem is posed by the conventional technique using a DSP and a CPU independent of each other which requires two external memory systems. Also, two peripheral units are required for data input and output of the DSP and CPU. As a result, an extraneous communication overhead occurs between the DSP and the CPU. The invention realizes a mobile communication terminal sys...

The objective is to provide a terminal that can be used in waterproof electric connectors without damaging the sealing member thereof and can reliably prevent the body and the spring from being deformed through reducing the load on the body and enhancing the strength of the body. The terminal according to the present invention comprises a rectangular-tube-shaped body being formed of a cross plate, a first vertical plate and a second vertical plate bending from both ends in the width direction of...

A terminal (10) has two high-rigidity portions (14) for resiliently contacting the inner surface of a through hole (23). A low-rigidity portion (17) spans between the high-rigidity portions (14) and is compressively deformable along its spanning direction. The low-rigidity portion (17) has an easily breakable portion (19) that breaks when a stress acting during the insertion of the terminal (10) into the through hole (23) exceeds a resiliency limit. Thus, the terminal (10) is held resiliently in...

A terminal for circuit boards is described, having at least one clamping contact situated in a housing. The clamping contact is composed of a contact element and a clamping spring, the clamping spring being operable via an operating element. A projection is situated on the operating element, the projection striking a stopping edge of the housing in the position of the operating element causing the clamping spring to open. A counter-projection is situated on the side of the operating element oppo...

The terminal includes a front portion, a middle portion, and a rear portion. The rear portion is opened and has a pair of upright segments. The front portion is a shape of hollow cylinder and has bent tips. The middle portion is partly opened and an inner edge thereof has a collapsed or chamfered face. A step H is disposed between the rear portion and the front portion so that the middle portion is downwardly tapered to the rear portion. A through-hole is disposed at inner wall of the middle por...

A telecommunications terminal (10) includes a series of teeth (14) opposite a juxtaposable surface (25). The region between the teeth (14) and surface (25) has a progressive taper such that a wire (22) captured therebetween is progressively engaged thereby.

The terminal block and terminal connector form part of a terminal block assembly in which one or more terminal blades of the terminal connector are located in one or more apertures of the terminal block for receiving thereon female quick-connect terminal connectors. The terminal blades are connected to a lug which, together with a collar type fastener is received in a cavity of the terminal block, into which a wire conductor can be inserted for the securing of the wire conductor to the lug for s...

The terminal block has a plurality of paralleling apertures for receiving blades of different types of terminal connectors. One type of connector is U-shaped with two generally parallel spaced apart blades interconnected at their bases. Each of the blades has a locating projection. Another type of connector is of the spade type with two spaced apart co-planar blades connected to a co-planar base portion of the spade type connector. A plurality of notches are formed on one face of the terminal bl...
