ABSTRACT:
This specification discloses an automobile terminal block for receiving fuses and electrical connections to various electrical components of the automobile. Connection to the fuse blade contact from the rear of the terminal block is improved. The terminal block has a passage extending between the front and rear of the terminal block which has therein a fuse holder. The fuse holder is adapted to receive the blade contact of a fuse. The rear of the terminal block has openings for receiving accessory connectors to be connected to a portion of the fuse holder. The openings for the accessory connectors on the back of the terminal block have raised boundaries for distinguishing the openings and have a polarizing means so that each accessory connector is uniquely associated with one opening and can be inserted only in the correct orientation. The terminal block also includes a resilient finger having an extending protrusion which is received in an opening in the fuse holder thereby securing the fuse holder. A stop plate spaced from the resilient finger limits movement of the resilient finger out of the path of the fuse holder thereby limiting the stress which can be applied to the resilient finger so that the resilient finger does not break and remains in place to apply a locking force to the fuse holder. The terminal block has a configuration so that mounting brackets and additional auxiliary components can be attached to the basic terminal block to improve the versatility of the terminal block and extend its use to a greater variety of applications.
