Description

Connector connecting structure
Technical field
The present invention relates to connector connecting structure, more specifically, relate to the structure of the insertion load that reduces connector.
Background technology
Traditionally, on motor vehicle driven by mixed power (HV), motor vehicle (EV) and fuel-cell vehicle (FCV), several electronic equipments are installed.For example, in the vehicle that comprises the motor generator that is mounted thereon, this motor generator is connected to electronic equipment such as inverter via the cable such as lead.Cable such as lead is connected to electronic equipment by connector usually.Particularly, cable and electronic equipment have its connector separately, and these connectors have the geometry that allows it to assemble mutually.Each connector serves as public connector or female connectors, and has the contact that is used to set up electrical connection.By public connector is assembled in the female connectors, their contact will be thus connected together to be electrically connected.Can public connector be assembled in the female connectors by applying the power that is not less than scheduled volume.For example, can realize the assembling of this connector by the clamping of bolt.Following discloses have been described the technology of the connector of the clamping assembling that is used for by bolt.
Japanese Patent Laid Open Publication 2002-75557 has described a kind of shielded connector, and it allows shielded conductor to extend on the direction parallel with the shielding wall of another parts, and it can make forr a short time.Shielded connector has the housing of the terminal that covers shielded conductor, and this housing holds the base end part of metal terminal, and this metal terminal is crimped onto on the conductor of shielded conductor.Shielded connector is attached to the through hole in the shielding wall that is formed on another parts.Then, the screen of shielded conductor can be connected to the shielding wall of another parts conductively, and the top of metal terminal is retained as in the shielding wall that protrudes into another parts.The metal terminal of shielded connector is whole L shaped as a whole, and its flat from the curled portion continuity of connector bends.Then, metal terminal from the base end part to the top near the part of position be insulated member and cover.Shield member is arranged in the housing that this insulating component (this insulating component covers metal terminal) is covered.One end of shield member is extended to or can be connected to conductively the screen of shielded conductor.The other end is arranged on the part of housing and shielding wall adjacency another parts.
Disclose under the described shielded connector situation above, when the housing of shielded connector was attached to the shielding wall of another parts, at an end place of housing, the metal terminal that is crimped onto on the conductor of shielded conductor protruded in the shielding wall.At the other end place of housing, the shielding wall that shielded conductor is parallel to another parts extends.Metal terminal is L shaped, and its flat that extends from crimping portion bends with the right angle, and flat can be with the radius bending littler than the radius of shielded conductor.Therefore, bending part and thereby whole shielded connector can make forr a short time.
For improving operability, can reduce the insertion load of connector by for example using the lever connector, in lever-type connector, lever is set on public connector, and arm is set on female connectors.When public connector was assembled in the female connectors, lever was hooked in the arm so that the insertion that reduces load to be provided.Following discloses have been described the technology of lever-type connector.
Japanese Patent Laid Open Publication 7-106018 has described a kind of lever-type connector, and it utilizes simple structure to prevent that lever from going out from the connector shell slippage.This lever-type connector has the U-shaped lever, and it is positioned on the connector shell of one of connector of mutual coupling rotationally, and lever is across connector shell.Another connector shell be provided be formed on lever on the flange receiver that matches of cam, lever can reciprocally rotate so that the cam receiver shifts, thereby makes the connector coupling and shirk.Lever-type connector has from the outstanding lever back shaft of any connector shell, perhaps the lever on another connector and (the lever back shaft can be fitted into them) axle receiving opening.One in lever back shaft and the axle receiving opening has radially outstanding slidably backstop, and another is provided with during the reciprocal rotation of lever and this matching surface of cooperating of backstop slidably, this matching surface has the part of radial indent, and allows slidably backstop to insert on the position and remove shirking of lever.
Disclose in the described lever-type connector above, lever is positioned at shirking on the position so that lever is attached to connector shell of connector.Then, be formed in the recess on the matching surface that slidably backstop on lever back shaft and the axle one of receiving opening is inserted into another.For operating lever with coupled connector, lever shirks rotated position to coupling position from it.Therefore, along with the connector coupling, lever is owing to operating physical force (it is used to act on the insertion load on the lever) bends.So slidably backstop matches with matching surface, thereby, can prevent that also the lever back shaft from removing from the axle receiving opening even be used on the direction that will the lever back shaft be removed from the axle receiving opening when masterpiece.
But when the HV that is installed in front-mounted engine rear-guard (FR) formula when motor generator went up, for example motor generator need be installed in the centre tunnel with less installing space of vehicle.When connector (for example being assembled mutually in clamping by bolt, as the situation in the above open middle shielded connector of describing) and after being installed in motor generator in the centre tunnel, when cable was connected to motor generator, the operability when coupled connector was lower.
In order on large-scale FR formula HV motor generator to be installed, for having relatively high expectations of motor generator, and motor generator self is bigger, therefore need minimize overhanging from motor generator such as connector.Particularly, for bigger motor generator, connector need have bigger terminal with the higher voltage of tolerance.So the insertion load of connector will be very big, and disclose the mechanism that being used to the described lever-type connector reduce to insert load and will cause very large connector such as above.Therefore, connector etc. are overhang from the housing of motor generator, and this needs bigger installing space.
