A connector module that is provided with an input port and an output port that are configured to be connected to an external member, and is to be mounted on a substrate, the connector module including: a bus bar that is separated from the substrate and connects a terminal of the input port and a terminal of the output port to each other; and an insulating member that is interposed between the bus bar and the substrate.

Connector module and substrate structure

Provided is an electrical connection box cover for covering a plurality of insertion ports for fuses of an insertion housing in which a plurality of rows of the insertion ports arranged side by side in one direction are provided in a stepped shape, the electrical connection box cover including a flat opposing wall that opposes the insertion ports when the electrical connection box cover is attached to the electrical connection box.

Electrical connection box cover and electrical connection apparatus

Provided is an electrical connection box in which a greater number of fuses can be inserted while suppressing an increase in size. An electrical connection box for a vehicle includes: an insertion housing that has a rectangular open port on one side and in which a plurality of rectangular insertion holes into which fuses are to be respectively inserted are provided facing the open port; a first insertion hole row in which a plurality of the insertion holes are provided side by side in a lengthwise direction of the open port, with long sides of the insertion holes adjacent to each other; and a second insertion hole row in which a plurality of the insertion holes are provided side by side in the lengthwise direction of the open port, with short sides of the insertion holes adjacent to each other.

Electrical connection box

Provided is an electrical connection box according to which it is possible to easily handle a substrate and a fuse module. An electrical connection box for a vehicle includes: an insertion housing into which a plurality of fuses are to be inserted; a plurality of fuse terminals each having one end portion inserted into a surface of the insertion housing, the fuse terminals connecting the fuses to a substrate; and a holding member that is arranged opposing the one surface of the insertion housing and holds the fuse terminals. The holding member includes a gripping portion provided on a side opposite to the insertion housing, and the gripping portion has a finger placement portion used for gripping.

Provided is an electrical connection box into which a greater number of fuses can be inserted without increasing its size. An electrical connection box for a vehicle includes: an insertion housing into which multiple fuses are to be inserted through an open port on one side; multiple fuse terminals for connecting the fuses in the insertion housing to a substrate; a plate-shaped holding member that opposes the insertion housing from a side opposite to the one side of the insertion housing, and holds the multiple fuse terminals; and a case member that includes a flat plate portion for covering the multiple fuse terminals and has a notch that is formed in the covering portion, the holding member being arranged inside of the notch.

Provided is an electrical connection box according to which it is possible to suppress the occurrence of mistakes in a manufacturing process, and it is possible to reliably prevent the occurrence of faulty products. The electrical connection box to be used in a vehicle includes a terminal having an inner-fitting plate portion that is fit into and held in a slit of a holding member; and multiple substrate connection portions that protrude along a surface of the inner-fitting plate portion from one side edge of the inner-fitting plate portion. The terminal has a shape that is asymmetrical in a direction in which the multiple substrate connection portions are arranged side by side.

A cover structure that includes a base that is attached to a circuit substrate of an electric connection box on which an electrical component is mounted, the base being used as a receptacle for a cable that is to be electrically connected to the electrical component; and a housing that houses the circuit substrate.

Cover structure and electric connection box

Provided is a circuit structure using a printed-circuit board with a novel structure that can provide a plurality of types of circuit specifications by switching connection of circuit patterns, allows circuit specifications to be easily identified, and achieves excellent connection workability and connection stability for circuit patterns. The circuit structure includes: a printed-circuit boardon which a plurality of circuit patterns are provided; and a circuit switching component, wherein the circuit switching component includes bus bar support bases on which any connection bus bars selected can be mounted and held, the plurality of types of connection bus bars are classified according to the number and the position of lead portions to be electrically connected to connection points, and a plurality of types of circuit specifications are provided by changing a mounting mode of the connection bus bars to the bus bar support bases.

Circuit structure using printed-circuit board

Provided is a drainage structure for an electrical connection box capable of preventing an internal circuit board from getting wet even if water has entered. An electrical connection box main body is mounted on a vehicle wherein a main body-side connector is located on an upper side and protrudes from an opening in a horizontal direction, and a protruding end portion of a housing peripheral wall of a lateral electrical component attaching portion protrudes to the outside from a lateral window, the lateral electrical component attaching portion protrudes laterally from on a side edge portion of a circuit board. A first drainage channel is provided inside the electrical connection box main body, and a second drainage channel extends downward and having an upper end portion connected to the first drainage channel in the protruding end portion of the housing peripheral wall of the lateral electrical component attaching portion.
