Claim:
1. An electric device system comprising a plurality of electric device units that are electrically connected to each other by assembling the plurality of electric device units in line along a first direction, wherein the plurality of electric device units comprises a first unit and a second unit that are adjacent to each other in an assembly state, each of the first unit and the second unit comprises an insulating casing as an outer shell, a first connecting terminal is provided at a predetermined position in a first outer surface that is a casing surface of the first unit, the casing surface of the first unit facing the second unit in the assembly state, at least a part of the first connecting terminal projecting from the first outer surface in a non-assembly state, the first connecting terminal being elastically deformable in the first direction, a second connecting terminal is provided at a position in a second outer surface that is a casing surface of the second unit, the casing surface of the second unit facing the first unit in the assembly state, the position in the second outer surface facing the first connecting terminal in the assembly state, a guiding mechanism is provided in the first unit and the second unit, the guiding mechanism slidably guiding the first unit into the second unit along a second direction orthogonal to the first direction to enable the first unit to be assembled in and removed from the second unit, the guiding mechanism guides the first unit into the second unit in assembling the first unit in the second unit such that the first connecting terminal comes into contact with the second connecting terminal after sliding on the second outer surface, a bulging surface bulging out toward the second unit is provided in an exposed surface of the first connecting terminal located on the second unit side in the assembly state, a recess is provided in an exposed surface of the second connecting terminal located on the first unit side in the assembly state, and a part of the bulging surface is fitted in the recess in the assembly state, and therefore at least the part of the bulging surface comes into press-contact with at least a part of an opening edge of the recess to establish electric conduction between the first connecting terminal and the second connecting terminal.
