Description

Terminal and connector Technical Field The present invention relates to terminals and connectors. Background Recently, as a connector mounted on a vehicle, a connector including a terminal and a housing holding the terminal is known. Such a terminal includes a plate-like 1 st connection portion, a connection portion protruding from an end edge of the 1 st connection portion in a direction intersecting the 1 st connection portion, and a 2 nd connection portion protruding from the connection portion (for example, refer to patent document 1). Prior art literature Patent literature Patent document 1 Japanese patent application laid-open No. 2019-83131 Disclosure of Invention Problems to be solved by the invention However, in the above-described connector, improvement in heat dissipation is desired. The invention provides a terminal and a connector capable of improving heat dissipation. Means for solving the problems The terminal of the present invention includes a plate-shaped 1 st connection portion extending in a1 st direction, a connection portion extending from a1 st end edge of the 1 st connection portion in a2 nd direction intersecting the 1 st direction, and a2 nd connection portion protruding from the connection portion toward the 2 nd direction, the connection portion including a plate-shaped body portion extending from the 1 st end edge in the 2 nd direction, and a1 st tab protruding from a1 st side edge of the body portion in a 3 rd direction intersecting both the 1 st direction and the 2 nd direction toward a 4 th direction intersecting both the 2 nd direction and the 3 rd direction.

Detailed Description (Description of embodiments of the invention) First, an embodiment of the present invention will be described. (1) The terminal of the present invention includes a plate-shaped 1 st connection portion extending in a1 st direction, a connection portion extending from a1 st end edge of the 1 st connection portion in a 2 nd direction intersecting the 1 st direction, and a 2 nd connection portion protruding from the connection portion toward the 2 nd direction, the connection portion including a plate-shaped body portion extending from the 1 st end edge in the 2 nd direction, and a1 st tab protruding from a1 st side edge of the body portion in a 3 rd direction intersecting both the 1 st direction and the 2 nd direction toward a 4 th direction intersecting both the 2 nd direction and the 3 rd direction. According to this structure, the 1 st tab is provided at the connecting portion connecting the 1 st connecting portion and the 2 nd connecting portion. By providing the 1 st tab, the surface area of the terminal can be increased. This can improve the heat dissipation of the terminal. The 1 st tab is formed to protrude in a 4 th direction intersecting both a 2 nd direction, which is a longitudinal direction of the main body, and a 3 rd direction, which is a width direction of the main body. Therefore, the body size of the connecting portion can be prevented from increasing in the 3 rd direction, which is the width direction of the main body portion. In this way, the size of the connecting portion can be prevented from increasing in the 3 rd direction, and the heat dissipation of the terminal can be improved. (2) In the above (1), the 1 st connecting portion may have a bolt fastening portion. According to this structure, the 1 st connection portion and the counterpart terminal can be connected to each other by bolt fastening. (3) In the above (1) or (2), the connecting portion may have a2 nd protruding piece, the 2 nd protruding piece protruding from a2 nd side edge of the main body portion in a 3 rd opposite direction toward the 4 rd direction, and the 3 rd opposite direction may be an opposite direction to the 3 rd direction. According to this structure, the 1 st and 2 nd tabs are provided on the 1 st and 2 nd side edges of the main body portion, respectively. By providing these two tabs, namely, the 1 st tab and the 2 nd tab, the surface area of the terminal can be appropriately increased. This can appropriately improve the heat dissipation of the terminal. (4) In the above (3), the 1 st connecting portion may protrude from an edge of the main body portion in a2 nd opposite directio
