ABSTRACT:
The disclosed terminal part can protect the elastic contact portion securely, without increasing the manufacturing cost thereof. The terminal part (43) is formed with a wire connecting portion (3); an elastic contact portion (5); and a top plate portion (49) formed between the wire connecting portion (3) and the elastic contact portion (5). The top plate portion (49) has a lower top plate portion (45) and an upper top plate portion (47). In particular, a lower engage projection (55) formed at the end of the lower top plate portion (45) is engaged with an upper engage hole (57) formed in the upper top plate portion (47), and further an upper engage hook (41) formed at the end of the upper top plate portion (47) is engaged with a lower engage hole (39) formed in the lower top plate portion (45). Therefore, it is possible to securely protect the two side plate portions (13, 15) from being deformed inward even if an external force (F3) is applied to the terminal part inadvertently.
