The contact spring at least partially rests on the contact zone and is formed from a material that is harder than the aluminum body.

An electrical power tap connector for a model vehicle is provided including a first power tap housing. The first power tap housing contains a power tap terminal configured to electrically couple with a connector terminal of an electrical connector. The power tap connector also includes a second power tap housing releasably securable to the first power tap housing and a releasable locking mechanism configured to physically secure the power tap connector to the electrical connector. Wherein the power tap terminal is configured to electrically couple with the connector terminal via a non-mating end of the electrical connector.

An element-side connection terminal (40) extending from a power conversion circuit unit (16) includes a first connection terminal portion (40A) that extends in a direction intersecting a direction of extension of a counterpart-side connection terminal (38); and a second connection terminal portion (40B) that is bent at a point before the first connection terminal portion (40A) reaches the counterpart-side connection terminal (38) in a direction to intersect the direction of extension of the counterpart-side connection terminal (38) such that the second connection terminal portion (40B) is provided with elasticity and is in an elastic contact with the counterpart-side connection terminal (38) at an angle. A tip end side (38T) of the counterpart-side connection terminal (38) and a tip end side (40T) of the second connection terminal portion (40B) are electrically joined.

A terminal-equipped electric wire includes a terminal to be electrically connected to a connection target member, and an electric wire to be connected to the terminal by ultrasonic joining. The terminal includes a joint portion to be connected to the electric wire, a connection portion to be connected to the connection target member, and a plating layer on a surface of the terminal. The connection portion has an uneven shape on at least a part of a surface thereof. When the terminal-equipped electric wire is connected to the connection target member, an insulating coating of the plating layer covering at least a part of the surface of the connection portion is broken.

The present disclosure provides an electric wire including: a plurality of conductors that have been twisted together; and an insulation coating that covers an outer circumference of the plurality of conductors, wherein the plurality of conductors include: a plurality of outer conductors that are arranged along an outermost circumference; and at least one inner conductor that is provided on an inner side of the plurality of outer conductors, the at least one inner conductor includes one or more first strands, the one or more first strands are copper wires, each copper wire including a tin-plating layer, each of the plurality of outer conductors includes one or more second strands, and the one or more second strands are copper wires, each copper wire not including a plating layer.

Prior to insertion into the recess of a crimping region, the axial ends of the plurality of electrical strands of the cable are fixed with a clamping tool so that the axial ends of the plurality of electrical strands protrude axially out of the clamping tool and the ends of the plurality of strands protruding axially from the clamping tool are sheared off in the transverse direction with a cutting tool so that a closed end face is produced at the axial end of the strands. The axial end of the plurality of electrical strands is inserted into the recess and the plurality of strands are welded to the contact piece by melting the closed end face arranged in the recess by radiation energy of a radiation directed onto the end face.

A member-joined structure includes: a first member, and a second member having a shape of plate, the second member including an overlapping portion that overlaps with the first member and a protruding portion that protrudes from the overlapping portion along a first direction. In the overlapping portion, a joined portion in which the first member and the second member are joined to each other by welding or fusing is formed. The joined portion is provided with a notch portion located opposite to the protruding portion.

A wiring substrate has a first wiring substrate, plurality of second wiring substrates, and an adhesive layer. The plurality of second wiring substrates are arranged adjacent to each other on the first wiring substrate. The adhesive layer adheres the first wiring substrate and the plurality of second wiring substrates to each other. The adhesive layer has a filling portion that fills a groove portion formed by opposing of side surfaces of adjacent ones of the plurality of second wiring substrates.

A connection structure between sensor and cable includes a cable formed by assembling a plurality of electric wires each including a covering portion covering a core and a core-exposing portion exposing the core at an end of the covering portion, a spacer that is interposed in a space surrounded by the covering portions of the electric wires and holds end portions of the covering portions in the state that the end portions are spaced from each other, and a sensor that detects a physical quantity, and the core-exposing portion of each of the electric wires of the cable is electrically connected to the sensor via a fixing member in the state that each of the electric wires is held by the spacer.
