Each of a plurality of LED lamp modules includes a base, an LED drive circuitry mounted on the base, and a cover coupled with the base to cover the LED drive circuitry. The LED lamp modules are stacked one on another. A single flat cable is extending through the LED lamp modules so as to have at least one first portion disposed outside the LED lamp modules and a plurality of second portions disposed inside the LED lamp modules to be electrically connected to the LED drive circuitry in each of the LED lamp modules. The first portion of the flat cable is sandwiched between the base of an upper one of the LED lamp modules and the cover of a lower one of the LED lamp modules.

A method of press-connecting a coated electric wire with a press-connecting terminal, including the step of pressing an end portion of the coated electric wire into a notched slot provided in a side plate of the press-connecting terminal so as to cut a coating portion of the coated electric wire to thereby make a conductor of the coated electric wire electrically connected to the side plate of the press-connecting terminal. In such a method, before the coated electric wire is press-connected with the press-connecting terminal, the coating portion of the coated electric wire is heated and softened so that the force necessary for pressing the coated electric wire into the notched slot is reduced to be not larger than a predetermined value.

A substantially parallelepiped engaging protrusion (30) formed on a side wall (24A) of a lever (24) pivoted on a boss (27) of a connector (21) has an upper front edge part tapered to provide a corner part (30B) defined by a pair of neighboring surfaces (30A, 30C) intersecting with an obtuse angle, the corner part (30B) making contact with a lower corner (37B) of an inclined engagement step (37) formed in a front side of an insertion groove (36) in an inner wall of a hood (34) of a mating connector (22), the inclined engagement step (37) having an inclined surface (37A) at an angle of inclination of at least 45 degrees with respect to a mating direction between the connectors (21, 22), and an upper edge (37C) of the inclined surface (37A) and a lower edge (30B) of a tapered surface (30A) of the engaging protrusion (30) are spaced from each other at a distance (D) in the mating direction so that, even with dimensional errors, there is achieved an ensured operative engagement between the engaging protrusion (30) and the engagement step (37).
摘要:
A lever 22 is pivotally supported on a male connector 21 through bosses 27, and an engagement projection 30 is formed on a lower portion of a front end portion of each side wall 28 of the lever 22, and a side projection 31, which is disposed beneath the boss 27 in an initial fitting condition, is formed on each side wall 28. Guide step grooves 37 for respectively guiding the side projections 31 are formed in an inner face 32A of a hood portion 32 of the female connector 23. A first step portion 37A and a second step portion 37B are formed intermediate opposite ends of the guide step groove 37. When the side projection 31 abut respectively against the side projections 31, the engagement projections can be engaged respectively in engagement grooves 35. Therefore, the lever 22 is provisionally retained by the second step portions 37B, and in this condition the lever 22 is pivotally moved so as to positively engage the engagement projections 30 respectively in the engagement grooves 35. Therefore, the lever 22 will not idle, and the male connector 21 can be positively fitted into the hood portion 32.
