Abstract
A connector block for injectors for an internal combustion engine comprises a rod-like main stem section of a heat-resistant rigid resin having a connector portion for a wire harness and a required number of injector connecting portions disposed at predetermined intervals that are molded as integral parts thereof, and tab-like terminals are made exposed from the connector portion for a wire harness and the injector connecting portions, and bus bars are insert molded in the rod-like main stem section for effecting an electrical connection between the connector portion and injector connecting portions, whereby an electrical connection is effected between a wire harness and a group of injectors. A receptacle junction terminal having upper and lower contact sections in which tab-like terminals are inserted for connection and adapted to be accommodated in a terminal accommodating chamber of the connector block is made by blanking a single plate material into a predetermined configuration and holding the plate material so blanked into a hollow quadrilateral prism, and at least a pair of cantilever-like elastic pieces are formed, respectively, on front and back walls of said quadrilateral…
