Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a connector.
  • Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication No. 2005-123029 discloses a connector including a housing, into which terminal fittings are to be inserted, and a retainer to be mounted into the housing, wherein the retainer mounted in the housing is movable between a partial locking position to permit insertion and withdrawal of the terminal fittings and a full locking position to retain the inserted terminal fittings.
  • the retainer is formed with a partial locking arm portion and a full locking arm portion extending substantially in parallel to a moving direction and juxtaposed with each other, and a space between these arms serves as a deformation space into which the respective arm portions are resiliently deformed.
  • the partial locking arm portion In a state where the retainer is at the partial locking position, the partial locking arm portion is engaged with the housing, thereby preventing a movement of the retainer in a direction opposite to the one toward the full locking position, and the full locking arm portion is held in contact with a projecting portion of the housing to prevent a movement of the retainer toward the full locking position. Further, in the process of moving the retainer from the partial locking position to the full locking position, the full locking arm portion interferes with the projecting portion to be resiliently deformed toward the partial locking arm portion. When the retainer reaches the full locking position, the full locking arm portion is resiliently restored to be engaged with the projecting portion, whereby the retainer is held at the full locking position.
  • this connector Since this connector is assembled by holding the retainer at the partial locking position in advance and moving the retainer to the full locking position after the terminal fittings are inserted, an extending end portion of the full locking arm portion and that of the partial locking arm portion are connected to prevent an inadvertent movement of the retainer to the full locking position. If the full locking arm portion is supported at both ends in this way, flexural stiffness of the full locking arm portion can be increased as compared to a full locking arm portion supported only at one end, wherefore a resilient deformation of the full locking arm portion becomes more difficult and an inadvertent movement of the retainer to the full locking position can be avoided.
  • the present invention was completed in view of the above situation and an object thereof is to miniaturize a connector.
  • a connector comprising:
  • the second arm portion In the process of moving or displacing the retainer from the first position to the second position, the second arm portion approaches the first arm portion to bring the deformation restraining portions into contact with each other, whereby the second arm portion comes to be apparently supported at both ends and flexural stiffness thereof is increased. Since this restrains any further resilient deformation of the second arm portion, an inadvertent movement of the retainer to the second position can be prevented.
  • a maximum displacement part of the second arm portion at the time of interference with the projecting portion is a substantially central part in the extending direction.
  • the second arm portion needs to be made longer.
  • the flexural stiffness of the second arm portion can be increased even if the second arm portion is supported only at one end.
  • the length of the second arm portion can be shortened.
  • the second arm portion and the first arm portion include deformation restraining portions for restraining any further resilient deformation of the second arm portion by coming into contact with each other when the second arm portion interferes with the projecting portion to be resiliently deformed.
  • a connector comprising a housing into which a terminal fitting is to be inserted; and a retainer to be mounted into the housing; wherein the retainer mounted in the housing is movable between a partial locking position to permit insertion and withdrawal of the terminal fitting and a full locking position to retain the inserted terminal fitting; the retainer is formed with a partial locking arm portion and a full locking arm portion extending in a cantilever manner substantially in the same direction as a moving direction from the partial locking position to the full locking position and spaced apart from each other; a movement of the retainer in a direction opposite to the one toward the full locking position is prevented by the engagement of the partial locking arm portion and the housing and a movement of the retainer toward the full locking position is prevented by the contact of the full locking arm portion with a projecting portion of the housing when the retainer is at the partial locking position; the full locking arm portion interferes with the projecting portion to be resiliently deformed toward the partial locking arm portion in the process of moving the retainer from the
  • the full locking arm portion In the process of moving the retainer from the partial locking position to the full locking position, the full locking arm portion approaches the partial locking arm portion to bring the deformation restraining portions into contact with each other, whereby the full locking arm portion comes to be apparently supported at both ends and flexural stiffness thereof is increased. Since this restrains any further resilient deformation of the full locking arm portion, an inadvertent movement of the retainer to the full locking position can be prevented.
  • a maximum displacement part of the full locking arm portion at the time of interference with the projecting portion is a substantially central part in the extending direction.
  • the full locking arm portion needs to be made longer.
  • the flexural stiffness of the full locking arm portion can be increased even if the full locking arm portion is supported only at one end.
  • the length of the full locking arm portion can be shortened.
  • the second arm portion is formed with an interfering portion which interferes with the projecting portion.
  • the deformation restraining portions are arranged at positions displaced from the interfering portion in an extending direction of the second arm portion.
  • the full locking arm portion is formed with an interfering portion which interferes with the projecting portion; and the deformation restraining portions are arranged at positions displaced from the interfering portion in an extending direction of the full locking arm portion.
  • the deformation restraining portions come into contact with each other to increase apparent flexural stiffness of the second arm portion (full locking arm portion) after the interfering portion interferes with the projecting portion and the second arm portion (full locking arm portion) starts being resiliently deformed. Thereafter, the second arm portion (full locking arm portion) is further resiliently deformed due to interference of the interfering portion and the projecting portion.
  • a front surface of the projecting portion serves as a first locking surface inclined with respect to the assembling direction of the retainer into the housing, and/or wherein a rear surface of the projecting portion serves as a second locking surface inclined with respect to the assembling direction.
  • a front surface of the interfering portion serves as a second contact surface inclined with respect to the assembling direction of the retainer, and/or wherein a rear surface of the interfering portion serves as a first contact surface inclined with respect to the assembling direction of the retainer.
  • the second contact surface and the second surface being both inclined with respect to the assembling direction of the retainer form a semi-locking structure preventing a return of the retainer.
  • a front surface of the retaining portion serves as an assembling guide surface inclined with respect to the assembling direction of the retainer and/or wherein a rear surface of the retaining portion serves as a retaining contact surface substantially perpendicular to the assembling direction of the retainer.
  • the assembling direction of the retainer into the housing substantially is opposite to an inserting direction of the terminal fitting into the housing.
  • FIG. 9 shows a connected state of a first connector F (as a particular connector) and a second connector M.
  • the first connector F includes a (particularly substantially block-shaped) housing 10 made e.g. of synthetic resin, one or more, particularly a plurality of female terminal fittings 30 (as a particular terminal fitting) to be at least partly inserted into the housing 10, and a retainer 40 made e.g. of synthetic resin for retaining one or more, particularly a plurality of inserted female terminal fittings 30.
  • a lock arm 11 extending backward (direction substantially opposite to a connecting direction CD with the second connector M) in a cantilever manner is formed along the outer or upper surface of the housing 10.
  • a lock projection 12 is formed on the outer or upper surface of the lock arm 11.
  • the lock projection 12 is formed with a locking surface 13 substantially facing backward (or arranged substantially perpendicular to the connecting direction CD) and a slide surface 14 inclined with respect to the connecting direction CD with the second connector M.
  • Mirror surface finishing particularly is applied to the slide surface 14 to reduce surface roughness as compared to areas of the outer surfaces of the lock arm 11 other than the slide surface 14.
  • the second connector M includes a terminal holding portion 60 made e.g. of synthetic resin, a receptacle 61 made e.g. of synthetic resin and substantially projecting forward from the terminal holding portion 60 and one or more male terminal fittings (not shown) to be mounted into the terminal holding portion 60.
  • a lock projection 62 projecting inwardly (downwardly) of the receptacle 61 is formed at an upper or lateral wall portion of the receptacle 61.
  • a guide inclined surface 63 inclined with respect to the connecting direction CD of the two connectors F, M is formed on the projecting end surface (lower end surface) of the lock projection 62. Surface roughness of the guide inclined surface 63 particularly is higher than the mirror surface finished slide surface 14.
  • the lock arm 11 is resiliently deformed downward (direction toward the outer or upper surface of the housing 10) as the housing 10 at least partly enters the receptacle 61 and the slide surface 14 of the lock projection 12 slides in contact with the guide inclined surface 63. During this time, sliding resistance resulting from a resilient restoring force of the lock arm 11 is produced between the slide surface 14 and the guide inclined surface 63. However, since mirror surface finishing particularly is applied to the slide surface 14 in this embodiment, the sliding resistance between the slide surface 14 and the guide inclined surface 63 (lock projection 62) is reduced to improve connection operability.
  • one or more, particularly a plurality of terminal accommodating chambers 15, into which the one or more respective female terminal fittings 30 are at least partly inserted from an insertion side, particularly substantially from behind, are formed in one or more levels or stages, particularly in two upper and lower levels, in the housing 10 of the first connector F.
  • a locking lance 16 (particularly substantially extending forward in a cantilever manner) is formed along or at the lateral or upper wall in each terminal accommodating chamber 15 particularly in the upper level
  • a locking lance 16 is formed along or at the lateral or lower wall in each terminal accommodating chamber 15 particularly in the lower level.
  • the locking lance 16 is resiliently deformed outward or upward (at least partly into a first accommodating portion 18 in the upper level to be described later) due to interference with the female terminal fitting 30.
  • the locking lance 16 is resiliently deformed outward or downward (at least partly into a first accommodating portion 18 in the lower level to be described later) due to interference with the female terminal fitting 30.
  • the housing 10 is formed with an accommodation space 17 which particularly is open in the front end surface of the housing 10 to at least partly accommodate the retainer 40 mounted in a mounting direction MD, particularly inserted from front.
  • the accommodation space 17 is composed of or comprises the first accommodating portion 18 in the upper level substantially facing the upper surfaces of the locking lances 16 in the upper level, the first accommodating portion 18 in the lower level substantially facing the lower surfaces of the locking lances 16 in the lower level, and a second accommodating portion 19 (see FIGS. 6 to 8 ) located in a substantially central or intermediate part of the housing 10 in a height direction.
  • the both upper and lower first accommodating portions 18 also have a function as deformation spaces for permitting resiliently deformations of the locking lances 16 in directions to be disengaged from the female terminal fittings 30.
  • a projecting portion 20 is formed on one side surface of the inner wall surface of the second accommodating portion 19 and a retaining portion 23 is formed on the other side surface.
  • the projecting portion 20 and the retaining portion 23 particularly are arranged substantially at the same height (or position along the connecting direction CD or the mounting direction MD of the retainer 40) and project toward each other.
  • the front surface of the projecting portion 20 serves as a partial locking surface 21 (as a particular first locking surface) inclined with respect to forward and backward directions (directions parallel to the assembling or mounting direction MD of the retainer 40 into the housing 10), and the rear surface thereof serves as a full locking surface 22 (as a particular second locking surface) inclined with respect to forward and backward directions (directions parallel to the assembling or mounting direction MD of the retainer 40 into the housing 10).
  • the front surface of the retaining portion 23 serves as an assembling guide surface 24 inclined with respect to forward and backward directions (directions parallel to the assembling or mounting direction MD of the retainer 40 into the housing 10), and the rear surface thereof serves as a retaining contact surface 25 substantially perpendicular to forward and backward directions (directions parallel to the assembling or mounting direction MD of the retainer 40 into the housing 10).
  • the assembling or mounting direction MD of the retainer 40 into the housing 10 particularly substantially is opposite to the inserting direction of the female terminal fittings 30 into the housing 10 in forward and backward directions.
  • the retainer 40 includes a main body 41 particularly substantially in the form of a laterally long plate, one or more, particularly a plurality of (particularly substantially plate-like) deformation restricting portions 42 projecting from (particularly the upper and/or lower ends of) the rear surface of the main body 41 and corresponding to the one or more locking lances 16 of the respective terminal accommodating chambers 15 (first accommodating portions 18), a partial locking arm portion 43 (as a particular first arm portion) projecting from (particularly the rear surface of) the main body 41 substantially in a cantilever manner so as to substantially correspond to the second accommodating portion 19, and a full locking arm portion 48 (as a particular second arm portion) likewise projecting from (particularly the rear surface of) the main body 41 substantially in a cantilever manner so as to substantially correspond to the second accommodating portion 19.
  • Projecting directions of the partial locking arm portion 43 and the full locking arm portion 48 particularly are both substantially the same as the assembling or mounting direction MD of the retainer 40 to or into the housing 10. Further, the partial locking arm portion 43 and the full locking arm portion 48 particularly are arranged substantially at the same height (i.e. height corresponding to the projecting portion 20 and a locking projection 44) and/or juxtaposed in a lateral direction (direction substantially perpendicular to the assembling direction MD of the retainer 40 into the housing 10) with a deformation space 53 formed therebetween. This deformation space 53 is a space for permitting resilient deformations of the partial locking arm portion 43 and the full locking arm portion 48.
  • the partial locking arm portion 43 is resiliently deformable in the lateral direction so as to at least partly enter the deformation space 53 with a base end portion (front end portion connected to the main body 41) as a supporting point.
  • a displacement of the partial locking arm portion 43 is maximized at an extending end portion 43E (rear end portion).
  • the full locking arm portion 48 is resiliently deformable in the lateral direction so as to at least partly enter the deformation space 53 with a base end portion (front end portion connected to the main body 41) as a supporting point.
  • a displacement of the full locking arm portion 48 is maximized at an extending end portion 48E (rear end portion).
  • the extending end portion 43E of the partial locking arm portion 43 is formed with the locking projection 44 projecting from a side surface thereof particularly substantially opposite to the one facing the full locking arm portion 48.
  • the front surface of the locking projection 44 serves as a retaining surface 45 substantially perpendicular to the assembling or mounting direction MD of the retainer 40, and the rear surface thereof serves as an assembling inclined surface 46 inclined with respect to the assembling direction MD of the retainer 40.
  • the extending end portion 43E on the side surface facing the full locking arm portion 48 out of the left and right surfaces of the partial locking arm portion 43 particularly serves as a receiving portion 47 (as a particular deformation restraining portion of the partial locking arm portion).
  • An interfering portion 49 projecting from a side surface of the full locking arm portion 48 particularly substantially opposite to the one facing the partial locking arm portion 43 is formed at a position of the full locking arm portion 48 closer to the base end side than the extending end portion 48E.
  • the front surface of the interfering portion 49 particularly serves as a full locking contact surface 50 inclined with respect to the assembling direction MD of the retainer 40, and/or the rear surface thereof particularly serves as a partial locking contact surface 51 inclined with respect to the assembling direction MD of the retainer 40.
  • the extending end portion 48E on the side surface facing the partial locking arm portion 43 out of the left and right surfaces of the full locking arm portion 48 particularly serves as a contact portion 52 (as a particular deformation restraining portion of the full locking arm portion).
  • the retainer 40 is first assembled to or into the housing 10 in the assembling or mounting direction MD, particularly substantially from front, and positioned or held at a partial locking position 1 P (as a particular first position, see e.g. FIGS. 2 and 6 ).
  • the one or more deformation restricting portions 42 are at least partly inserted into the one or more respective first accommodating portions 18 and the partial locking arm portion 43 and the full locking arm portion 48 are at least partly inserted into the second accommodating portion 19.
  • the assembling inclined surface 46 of the locking projection 44 of the partial locking arm portion 43 slides in contact with the assembling guide surface 24 of the retaining portion 23 of the housing 10 and, accordingly, the partial locking arm portion 43 is resiliently deformed to at least partly enter the deformation space 53.
  • the retainer 40 reaches the partial locking position 1 P, the locking projection 44 has already passed the retaining portion 23.
  • the partial locking arm portion 43 is resiliently at least partly restored, the retaining surface 45 of the partial locking arm portion 43 is engaged with the retaining contact surface 25 of the retaining portion 23, and a forward detaching movement of the retainer 40 particularly is prevented by this locking action.
  • the partial locking contact surface 51 of the interfering portion 49 of the full locking arm portion 48 comes into contact with or comes to proximately face (or be adjacent to) the partial locking surface 21, whereby the retainer 40 is restricted from being pushed backward (rearward) from the partial locking position 1 P. Since these partial locking contact surface 51 and partial locking surface 21 particularly are both inclined with respect to the assembling direction MD of the retainer 40, this movement of the retainer 40 is prevented by a semi-locking structure. By the above, the retainer 40 particularly is held at the partial locking position 1 P.
  • the deformation restricting portions 42 particularly substantially are retracted forward from the front ends (extending ends) of the locking lances 16 as shown in FIG. 2 , wherefore resilient deformations of the locking lances 16 are possible.
  • the one or more female terminal fittings 30 at least partly are inserted into the respective terminal accommodating chambers 15. The inserted female terminal fittings 30 particularly are held and retained by primary locking action of the locking lances 16.
  • the retainer 40 at the partial locking position 1 P is moved backward to a full locking position 2P (as a particular second position).
  • the deformation restricting portions 42 are deeply inserted to positions facing the locking lances 16 in the first accommodating portions 18 as shown in FIG. 1 and resilient deformations of the locking lances 16 in directions away from the female terminal fittings 30 are prevented by the deformation restricting portions 42.
  • the female terminal fittings 30 are reliably retained and locked by this secondary locking action of the retainer 40 and the primary locking action of the locking lances 16.
  • the interfering portion 49 of the full locking arm portion 48 interferes with the projecting portion 20 of the housing 10 and the partial locking contact surface 51 of the full locking arm portion 48 and the partial locking surface 21 of the housing 10 interfere, whereby the full locking arm portion 48 is resiliently deformed to at least partly enter the deformation space 53 (to approach the partial locking arm portion 43) (see FIG. 7 ).
  • the contact portion 52 of the full locking arm portion 48 comes into contact with the receiving portion 47 of the partial locking arm portion 43 and, by this contact action, any further resilient deformation of the full locking arm portion 48 is prevented and the full locking arm portion 48 particularly is supported at two front and rear positions, i.e. at the base end portion (front end portion) and the rear end portion (extending end portion 48E) to increase apparent flexural stiffness of the full locking arm portion 48.
  • the first connector F of this embodiment is such that the retainer 40 includes the (particularly substantially cantilever-shaped) partial locking arm portion 43 and full locking arm portion 48 and the retainer 40 at the partial locking position 1 P has a movement toward the full locking position 2P particularly prevented by the contact of the full locking arm portion 48 with the projecting portion 20 of the housing 10. Further, in the process of moving the retainer 40 from the partial locking position 1 P to the full locking position 2P, the full locking arm portion 48 interferes with the projecting portion 20 to be resiliently deformed toward the partial locking arm portion 43.
  • the full locking arm portion 48 and the partial locking arm portion 43 particularly are respectively formed with the contact portion 52 and the receiving portion 47 as the deformation restraining portions for restraining any further resilient deformation of the full locking arm portion 48 by coming into contact with each other when the full locking arm portion 48 interferes with the projecting portion 20 to be resiliently deformed.
  • the contact portion 52 of the full locking arm portion 48 comes into contact with the receiving portion 47 of the partial locking arm portion 43 before the retainer 40 reaches the full locking position 2P, whereby apparent flexural stiffness of the full locking arm portion 48 is increased and, at that point of time, the retainer 40 is prevented from being pushed toward the full locking position 2P any further.
  • a retainer 40 includes (particularly substantially cantilever-shaped) partial locking arm portion 43 and full locking arm portion 48.
  • a movement of the retainer 40 at a partial locking position 1 P (first position) toward a full locking position 2P (esecond position) is prevented by the contact of the full locking arm portion 48 with a projecting portion 20 of a housing 10.
  • the full locking arm portion 48 interferes with the projecting portion 20 to be resiliently deformed toward the partial locking arm portion 43.
  • the full locking arm portion 48 and the partial locking arm portion 43 respectively include a contact portion 52 and a receiving portion 47 as deformation restraining portions for restraining any further resilient deformation of the full locking arm portion 48 by coming into contact with each other when the full locking arm portion 48 interferes with the projecting portion 20 to be resiliently deformed.
