A contact terminal includes a tubular body and a first conductor. The tubular body has an end-side cutout provided in a shape cut out from one axial-direction end surface toward an other axial-direction side at one axial-direction end portion of the tubular body, a hole that is open at the one axial-direction end portion, and a pair of arms interposed between the end-side cutout and the hole. The first conductor includes a first insertion including an inclined portion having an outside diameter gradually increased toward one axial-direction side, and a first straight portion connected to the one axial-direction side of the inclined portion and having an outside diameter constant along the axial direction. The outside diameter of the first straight portion is larger than an inside diameter of the tubular body. The first straight portion is configured to be in contact with the pair of arms.

Contact terminal, inspection jig, and inspection apparatus

In a contact terminal, the first insertion portion includes a first contact portion having a first flat surface along an axial direction, the second insertion portion includes a second contact portion having a second flat surface along the axial direction, the first flat surface and the second flat surface are in contact with each other, the tubular body includes at least one of a first end side notch provided along the axial direction on a peripheral surface of the one end portion in the axial direction of the tubular body and a second end side notch provided along the axial direction on a peripheral surface of the other end portion in the axial direction of the tubular body.

Contact terminal, inspection jig, and inspection device

An inspection jig may include: an electrode; a probe, the probe having a rear end portion and a tip portion to contact a bump; and a support member supporting the probe. The probe may include: an outer tubular body that is electrically conductive; and an inner tubular body that is electrically conductive, the inner tubular body being inserted into the outer tubular body. The outer tubular body may include outer spring parts to bias the rear end portion. The inner tubular body may include inner spring parts. The tip portion may be a first end of the inner tubular body, and protrudes from a first end of the outer tubular body. The support member may hold the outer tubular body such that the rear end portion is brought into contact with the electrode by the biasing force of the outer spring parts.

Inspection jig and inspection device

Provided is a connection terminal that maintains an approximately circular shape before or after a cylindrical part is fixed by resistance welding. The connection terminal used for a connection jig interconnecting target points includes a small-diameter conductive part and a large-diameter cylindrical part disposed to surround the small-diameter conductive part. The small-diameter conductive part has a front end protruding from a front end of the large-diameter cylindrical part. A part of the small-diameter conductive part is joined to a part of the large-diameter cylindrical part. A cutout part is formed in a part of a strip portion around an axis of the cylindrical part that at least includes the portion of the large-diameter cylindrical part which is joined to the small-diameter conductive part.
