Patent ID: 10205264

Abstract:
A joint connector includes shorting members (30) and a shorting member accommodating portion (50) for holding the shorting members (30). The shorting member holding portion (50) includes clamping portions (52, 54, 56 and 58) capable of clamping the shorting members (30) from both sides in a clamping direction and a clamping/fixing portion for constraining these clamping portions (52, 54, 56 and 58) to each other to fix the clamping portions at clamping positions where the clamping portions clamp the shorting members (30). At least some of the clamping portions are constraining clamping portions including shorting member constraining portions for constraining the shorting members (30) to restrict relative displacements of the shorting members (30) in a terminal projecting direction at the clamping positions.
