Abstract

Disclosed is a terminal structure which has a high degree of freedom in selecting the mounting position. A terminal part (18) is affixed to a glass plate (11) with an adhesive (27). A conductive member (19) extends from the terminal part (18) too an object of power supply. The conductive member (19) is flexible.

Claims

1. A terminal structure comprising:

a terminal part capable of being affixed to a glass sheet by an adhesive; and

a conductive member extending from the terminal part to a power-supplied object and having flexibility.

2. The terminal structure of claim 1, wherein the conductive member has a distal end part, and the distal end part is a sheet-shaped part.

3. (canceled)

4. A vehicular, terminal-equipped glass sheet comprising:

a glass sheet for a vehicle;

a terminal part affixed to the glass sheet by an adhesive; and

a conductive member extending from the terminal part to a power-supplied object and having flexibility.

5. The vehicular, terminal-equipped glass sheet of claim 4, wherein the conductive member has a distal end part, and the distal end part is a sheet-shaped part.
