An electronic circuit board 14 is placed above a portion of insulation plates 19 and busbars 13 stacked on a lower casing 11. Circuit portions 14a of the circuit board 14 are electrically connected with the busbars 13 via connection terminals 17. There are provided housings 16 for retaining the connection terminals 17 in terminal chambers arranged side by side therein. The connection terminals 17 are connected with the circuit portions 14a by fitting the housings 16 to the periphery of the circuit board 14 sideways. The circuit board 14 is placed on the upper faces of supports 11c projecting from the lower casing 11 while the connection terminals are fitted to the tabs of the busbars from above. An upper casing 12 is lockingly fixed with the lower casing 11, thereby pressingly fixing the upper surfaces of the housings 16 mounted on the circuit board 14 by shoulder portions 12c provided at the upper casing 12.Field of SearchModuleWith printed circuit boards Busbar Wire distribution (e.g., harness, rack, etc.) Within distinct housing spaced from panel circuit arrangement Automotive junction box Overlying second preformed panel circuit, both adapted to be electrically connected Connected by transversely inserted pin For connection to rigid preformed panel circuit arrangement, e.g., PCB Having resilient means engaging panel opening Plural detachable flanges Having polarizing means By key or guideway User adjustable key or guideway JUNCTION BOX WITH BUSBAR FOR PLUG-SOCKET TYPE INTERCONNECTION WITH RECEPTACLE Providing direct contact between contacts of printed circuit board and different type conductors With connectors Bus bars Bus bars Bus bars Bus bars Bus bars Bus bars Bus bars | |
