Abstract:
A terminal connecting structure includes a male terminal having a rod-shaped portion, a female terminal having a cylindrical portion, and an elastic member provided in the cylindrical portion. The female terminal has indented portions. A projecting portion is provided on one of the rod-shaped portion and a central portion of the cylindrical portion. A cut-out portion is provided on the other of the rod-shaped portion and the central portion of the cylindrical portion. The projecting portion fits the cut-out portion when the male terminal fits in the female terminal.

Claim (Index 1):
A terminal connecting structure comprising:\n a male terminal including a rod-shaped portion; a female terminal having a cylindrical portion into which the rod-shaped portion is to be inserted; and an elastic member provided in the cylindrical portion, wherein the elastic member biases the rod-shaped portion towards one side of the cylindrical portion when the rod-shaped portion is inserted in the cylindrical portion, wherein, when seen from a front of the female terminal, the female terminal has a plurality of indented portions that protrude inwards from respective inner walls of areas of said one side of the cylindrical portion, wherein said areas are positioned on both sides of a central portion of said one side of the cylindrical portion, wherein one of a portion of the rod-shaped portion that faces the central portion of the cylindrical portion and the central portion of the cylindrical portion has a projecting portion configured to prevent the rod-shaped portion from being brought into contact with the plurality of indented portions during inserting the rod-shaped portion into the cylindrical portion, and wherein the other of the portion of the rod-shaped portion that faces the central portion of the cylindrical portion and the central portion of the cylindrical portion has a cut-out portion into which the projecting portion fits in a state that results after the male terminal fits in the female terminal with the rod-shaped portion inserted in the cylindrical portion to allow the rod-shaped portion to be brought into contact with the plurality of indented portions.
