ABSTRACT:
A busbar interconnecting structure consists of a tab formed integral with one busbar and a slot formed in another busbar. The two busbars are firmly connected by pressing the tab into the slot. The slot has the inner surfaces of its shorter sides formed in an arc so that even when the tab is inserted misaligned into the slot, a four-point contact is obtained at all times between the tab and the slot. The slot is also provided at the shorter sides with risers whose inner surfaces are also formed in an arc shape to increase the contact area between the tab and the slot, thus assuring a more stable electrical contact. The tab, when viewed in cross section, may be rounded at the shorter sides to match the curvature of the internal arc surfaces of the slot, thereby providing a still more stable surface contact.
