Abstract:
1. An electric connection box, comprising: a circuit constituent accommodated in a case; the circuit constituent comprising a circuit board on which a switching member is implemented and a bus bar wired along the circuit board; the case having a substantially rectangular frame arranged on the circuit board and fixed along a peripheral edge thereof and a cover assembled to the frame so as to block an opening on a front surface side and covering the circuit board; a terminal portion positioned at an end projecting from an outer circumferential edge of the circuit board, the terminal portion generally having an L shape and rising from the bus bar to the front surface side at a right angle with respect to the circuit board, the terminal portion including a support portion and a connection portion, the support portion extending substantially perpendicular from the bus bar and the connection portion extending substantially perpendicular from the support portion, the support portion being provided in plural side by side along the frame; and a falling restricting portion positioned at an outer edge portion of the cover, the falling restricting portion constructed to restrict falling toward a circuit board side and constructed to restrict deformation of the terminal portion by being brought into contact with the support portion, wherein displacement restricting portions are positioned at the outer edge portions of the frame and the cover; and displacement of the falling restricting portion in the direction separated from the support portion of the terminal portion is restricted by interaction between the displacement restricting portion on the frame side and the displacement restricting portion on the cover side.
