Abstract
A terminal fitting () includes a metal case () having an opening (A) through which a mating contact point () is inserted, a coil spring () accommodated in the metal case (), and an electrical contact () biased toward the opening (A) by the coil spring () and configured to move while compressing the coil spring () by being pressed by the mating contact point (). The metal case () includes a first guide (parts at both front and rear sides of an opening () in a front wall () of the metal case ()) configured to guide the electrical contact () to a position shifted from a position before a movement in a direction orthogonal to an inserting direction of the mating contact point () by sliding in contact with the electrical contact () when the electrical contact () moves by being pressed by the mating contact point ().
