1. A butting connector comprising:
a first butting terminal fitting metal sheet having a terminal butting surface;
a second butting terminal fitting made of a metal plate and having a plurality of contact spring pieces which are resiliently
deformed when the plurality of the contact spring pieces are butted against the terminal butting surface so as to be electrically
conducted and connected to the first butting terminal fitting metal sheet;
a first terminal accommodating member which holds the first butting terminal fitting metal sheet so that the terminal butting
surface is exposed; and
a second terminal accommodating member which holds the second butting terminal fitting so that the plurality of the contact
spring pieces are butted against the terminal butting surface when the second terminal accommodating member is butted against
the first terminal accommodating member,
wherein the terminal butting surface is formed in a curved-surface configuration protruding to a second butting terminal fitting
side,
wherein the plurality of the contact spring pieces are a plurality of flat plate leaf spring pieces,
wherein the terminal butting surface is an outer peripheral surface of a semi-cylindrical raised structure whose cross-sectional
form is a circular arc surface,
wherein the plurality of the contact spring pieces are flat plate leaf springs which extend in an orthogonal direction to
an extending direction in which the terminal butting surface extends along the first butting terminal fitting metal sheet,
wherein the plurality of the contact spring pieces are arranged in a configuration of comb teeth at regular intervals to the
extending direction of the terminal butting surface, and
wherein each of the plurality of the contact spring pieces has a linear shape and are parallel to each other.
