Abstract
A connection structure for a terminal fitting includes the terminal fitting including a terminal body and a plurality of terminal connection portions extending from the terminal body, and connection terminals connected to electric wires. Each of the connection terminals include a pair of fastening caulking pieces. The pair of fastening caulking pieces are caulked with opposite side portions of a corresponding one of the terminal connection portions from outside so as to roll up the opposite side portions so that the connection terminal is caulked and fastened to the terminal fitting. The terminal connection portion and the connection terminal include an engagement mechanism that prevents the terminal connection portion from detaching from the fastening caulking pieces. The terminal fitting is connected to the electric wires through the connection terminals.
