Description

本発明は、ＦＦＣ用挿入ガイドに関するものである。   The present invention relates to an FFC insertion guide.

従来、フレキシブルフラットケーブル（ＦＦＣ：Ｆｌｅｘｉｂｌｅ Ｆｌａｔ Ｃａｂｌｅ）、フレキシブル回路基板（ＦＰＣ：Ｆｌｅｘｉｂｌｅ Ｐｒｉｎｔｅｄ Ｃｉｒｃｕｉｔ）等と称される平板状可撓（とう）性ケーブルを接続するためにＦＦＣ用コネクタが使用されている。なお、本明細書においては、フレキシブルフラットケーブル、フレキシブル回路基板等の平板状可撓性ケーブルを「ＦＦＣ」と言うこととする。   Conventionally, an FFC connector has been used to connect a flat-type flexible cable called a flexible flat cable (FFC) or a flexible printed circuit (FPC). . In the present specification, a flat flexible cable such as a flexible flat cable or a flexible circuit board is referred to as “FFC”.

しかし、ＦＦＣは、剛性が低いので、ＦＦＣ用コネクタの挿入口に挿入する際の挿入抵抗によって、変形したり、挿入不足が生じたりしてしまう。そこで、挿入口の厚さ方向の寸法をＦＦＣの厚さよりも十分に大きな寸法で形成して挿入抵抗をゼロにし、ＦＦＣの挿入後にアクチュエータを作動させて、ＦＦＣをコネクタの接続端子に押し付けるＺＩＦ（Ｚｅｒｏ−Ｉｎｓｅｒｔｉｏｎ Ｆｏｒｃｅ）型のＦＦＣ用コネクタがある。もっとも、ＺＩＦ型のＦＦＣ用コネクタは、構造が複雑で大型化してしまうので、ＦＦＣ用コネクタと係合してロックするためのロック体をＦＦＣの先端近傍に装着し、アクチュエータを備えていないＮｏｎ（ノン）−ＺＩＦ型のＦＦＣ用コネクタにＦＦＣを挿入する技術が提案されている（例えば、特許文献１参照。）。
特開２００２−１２４３２１号公報 However, since the FFC has low rigidity, it is deformed or insufficiently inserted due to the insertion resistance when it is inserted into the insertion port of the FFC connector. Therefore, the insertion opening is formed with a dimension sufficiently larger than the thickness of the FFC to make the insertion resistance zero, and after inserting the FFC, the actuator is operated to press the FFC against the connector connection terminal ZIF ( There is an FFC connector of the Zero-Insertion Force) type. However, since the ZIF type FFC connector has a complicated structure and becomes large in size, a non-actuated (non-actuator) equipped with a lock body for engaging and locking the FFC connector in the vicinity of the front end of the FFC. A technique for inserting an FFC into a non-ZIF type FFC connector has been proposed (for example, see Patent Document 1).
JP 2002-124321 A

しかしながら、前記従来のＦＦＣ用コネクタにおいて、ロック体は平板状のＦＦＣの側端縁のみを支持するようになっているので、可撓性であるＦＦＣの大部分がロック体に支持されておらず不安定になっている。もっとも、前記従来のＦＦＣ用コネクタでは、シールドの機能を有する金属補強板をＦＦＣに積層して補強しているが、通常のＦＦＣに使用されるシールド用の金属層は、肉薄であるから、ＦＦＣの変形を防止することができる程の強度を備えていない。また、十分な強度を有する肉厚の金属板を前記金属補強板とした場合には、重量が著しく増加して取扱が困難になり、また、価格も高くなってしまう。   However, in the conventional FFC connector, since the lock body supports only the side edge of the flat plate-like FFC, most of the flexible FFC is not supported by the lock body. It is unstable. However, in the conventional FFC connector, a metal reinforcing plate having a shielding function is laminated and reinforced on the FFC. However, since the metal layer for shielding used in a normal FFC is thin, the FFC is thin. It does not have enough strength to prevent deformation. In addition, when a thick metal plate having sufficient strength is used as the metal reinforcing plate, the weight is remarkably increased, making handling difficult and increasing the price.

本発明は、前記従来の問題点を解決して、ＦＦＣの先端近傍においてＦＦＣの全周面に亘（わた）って密着し、かつ、６方向に対して移動不能にＦＦＣに取付けられることによって、ＦＦＣ用コネクタに対してＦＦＣを変形させることなく、適正な姿勢で、かつ、容易に挿入して接続させることができるとともに、ＦＦＣ用コネクタとの接続状態を容易に確認することができ、ＦＦＣ用コネクタとの接続状態が不用意に解除されることがなく、信頼性を向上させることができるＦＦＣ用挿入ガイドを提供することを目的とする。   The present invention solves the above-mentioned conventional problems, and is attached to the FFC in close contact with the entire circumference of the FFC in the vicinity of the tip of the FFC and immovable in six directions. The FFC can be easily inserted and connected in an appropriate posture without deforming the FFC with respect to the FFC connector, and the connection state with the FFC connector can be easily confirmed. It is an object of the present invention to provide an FFC insertion guide that can improve the reliability without inadvertently releasing the connection state with the connector.

そのために、本発明のＦＦＣ用挿入ガイドにおいては、ＦＦＣの先端近傍に取付けられ、ＦＦＣ用コネクタと嵌（かん）合してＦＦＣをＦＦＣ用コネクタに電気的に接続するＦＦＣ用挿入ガイドであって、前記ＦＦＣを位置決めする位置決め手段を備え、相互に結合して、前記ＦＦＣの全周面に亘って取付けられる第１及び第２ガイド部材を有し、前記第１ガイド部材は前記ＦＦＣ用コネクタのロック部材と係合して、ＦＦＣ用挿入ガイドとＦＦＣ用コネクタとをロックする抜止め手段を備える。   For this purpose, the FFC insertion guide of the present invention is an FFC insertion guide that is attached near the tip of the FFC and fits into the FFC connector to electrically connect the FFC to the FFC connector. , Comprising a positioning means for positioning the FFC, and having first and second guide members which are coupled to each other and are attached over the entire peripheral surface of the FFC, wherein the first guide member is a member of the FFC connector. A retaining means for engaging the lock member to lock the FFC insertion guide and the FFC connector is provided.

本発明の他のＦＦＣ用挿入ガイドにおいては、さらに、前記ＦＦＣは、本体部及び該本体部の少なくとも一方の面に固着された補強部材を備える。   In another FFC insertion guide according to the present invention, the FFC further includes a main body portion and a reinforcing member fixed to at least one surface of the main body portion.

本発明の更に他のＦＦＣ用挿入ガイドにおいては、さらに、前記第１ガイド部材は、前記ＦＦＣの一方の面における先端を含む範囲に接触し、少なくとも先端部を含む部分が前記ＦＦＣ用コネクタの挿入口に挿入可能であり、前記第２ガイド部材は、前記ＦＦＣの先端から所定長の範囲を露出させるように前記ＦＦＣの他方の面に接触する。   In still another FFC insertion guide of the present invention, the first guide member is in contact with a range including the tip on one surface of the FFC, and at least a portion including the tip is inserted into the FFC connector. The second guide member contacts the other surface of the FFC so as to expose a predetermined length range from the tip of the FFC.

本発明の更に他のＦＦＣ用挿入ガイドにおいては、さらに、前記位置決め手段は、前記第１ガイド部材に形成された前記ＦＦＣの側端が挿入される堀部、又は、前記第１ガイド部材若しくは第２ガイド部材に形成され、前記ＦＦＣが備える位置決め開口に挿入される位置決めボスである。   In still another FFC insertion guide according to the present invention, the positioning means may be a moat portion into which the side end of the FFC formed in the first guide member is inserted, or the first guide member or the second guide member. A positioning boss formed in the guide member and inserted into a positioning opening provided in the FFC.

本発明の更に他のＦＦＣ用挿入ガイドにおいては、さらに、前記位置決め手段は前記第１ガイド部材の先端に形成されたガイド端部であり、該ガイド端部は、前記ＦＦＣの信号線が露出している側の面に向って突出し、前記ＦＦＣの先端面を保護する。   In still another FFC insertion guide of the present invention, the positioning means is a guide end formed at the tip of the first guide member, and the FFC signal line is exposed at the guide end. It protrudes toward the surface of the FFC and protects the front end surface of the FFC.

本発明によれば、ＦＦＣ用挿入ガイドは、ＦＦＣの先端近傍においてＦＦＣの全周面に亘って密着し、かつ、６方向に対して移動不能にＦＦＣに取付けられる。そのため、ＦＦＣ用コネクタに対してＦＦＣを変形させることなく、適正な姿勢で、容易にかつ適正に挿入して接続させることができるとともに、ＦＦＣ用コネクタとの接続状態を容易に確認することができ、ＦＦＣ用コネクタとの接続状態が不用意に解除されることがなく、信頼性を向上させることができる。   According to the present invention, the FFC insertion guide is attached to the FFC in close contact with the entire circumference of the FFC in the vicinity of the front end of the FFC and immovable in the six directions. Therefore, it is possible to easily and properly insert and connect the FFC connector in an appropriate posture without deforming the FFC connector, and to easily check the connection state with the FFC connector. The connection state with the FFC connector is not inadvertently released, and the reliability can be improved.

Is done. Thereby, the FFC 40 is positioned with respect to the first guide member 21. The ear portion 42a can be omitted. In this case, the positioning opening 42b is formed near the side edge of the FFC 40.

さらに、第２ガイド部材３１は、図３〜６に示されるように、ＦＦＣ４０の幅方向に延在する帯状の形状、すなわち、概略長方形の形状を有する板状の部材であり、その短手方向の寸法が前記第１ガイド部材２１の短手方向の寸法より短くなっている。そして、図５に明瞭に示されるように、ＦＦＣ４０に当接する側、すなわち、内側の面は全体的に平面であるが、前記内側の面から突出する複数の食込み突起部材３２が形成されている。該食込み突起部材３２がケーブル本体部４１の第２ガイド部材３１側の面に食込むことによって、第２ガイド部材３１に対するＦＦＣ４０の位置決めがなされる。また、前記内側の面の長手方向の両端には、第１ガイド部材２１の位置決めボス２５が進入するボス受容孔（こう）３４が形成されている。さらに、第２結合部３３の側面には、第１ガイド部材２１における第１結合部２４の結合突起２４ａと係合する結合開口３３ａが形成されている。これにより、前記第１結合部２４と第２結合部３３とが結合し、第１ガイド部材２１と第２ガイド部材３１とが一体化される。なお、前記位置決めボス２５を第２ガイド部材３１に形成し、ボス受容孔３４を第１ガイド部材２１に形成してもよい。   Further, as shown in FIGS. 3 to 6, the second guide member 31 is a plate-like member having a strip shape extending in the width direction of the FFC 40, that is, a substantially rectangular shape, and its short direction. Is shorter than the dimension of the first guide member 21 in the short direction. Further, as clearly shown in FIG. 5, the side in contact with the FFC 40, that is, the inner surface is entirely flat, but a plurality of biting protrusion members 32 protruding from the inner surface are formed. . The biting projection member 32 bites into the surface of the cable main body 41 on the second guide member 31 side, whereby the FFC 40 is positioned with respect to the second guide member 31. Further, boss receiving holes 34 for receiving the positioning bosses 25 of the first guide member 21 are formed at both ends in the longitudinal direction of the inner surface. Further, a coupling opening 33 a that engages with the coupling protrusion 24 a of the first coupling portion 24 in the first guide member 21 is formed on the side surface of the second coupling portion 33. As a result, the first coupling portion 24 and the second coupling portion 33 are coupled, and the first guide member 21 and the second guide member 31 are integrated. The positioning boss 25 may be formed in the second guide member 31 and the boss receiving hole 34 may be formed in the first guide member 21.

一体化された第１ガイド部材２１及び第２ガイド部材３１は、図１又は３に示されるように、ＦＦＣ４０の端部を表裏両面から挟み込んだ状態となり、第１ガイド部材２１の内側の面はＦＦＣ４０の補強フィルム４２の面に接触し、第２ガイド部材３１の内側の面はＦＦＣ４０の補強フィルム４２と反対側の面、すなわち、信号線４３が露出している側の面に接触する。なお、この場合、ＦＦＣ４０をより強固に保持するため、第１ガイド部材２１の内側の面と第２ガイド部材３１の内側の面はＦＦＣ４０の補強フィルム４２の面、補強フィルム４２と反対側の面に、それぞれ密着していることが望ましい。そして、前述したように、第２ガイド部材３１の短手方向の寸法が第１ガイド部材２１の短手方向の寸法より短くなっていて、かつ、一体化された第１ガイド部材２１及び第２ガイド部材３１の後端側（図１における上端側）の端縁がＦＦＣ用コネクタ１０への挿入方向（図１における下方向）に関してほぼ同一位置にあるので、ＦＦＣ４０の信号線４３が露出している側の面における先端縁から所定長の範囲は、第２ガイド部材３１に覆われることなく、露出した状態となる。なお、前記所定長の範囲が信号線４３が露出している範囲の長さよりも広くなっているので、信号線４３の露出部分は第２ガイド部材３１に覆われることがない。また、該第２ガイド部材３１の内側の面に形成された食込み突起部材３２がケーブル本体部４１の被覆に食込むので、第２ガイド部材３１に対するＦＦＣ４０が移動することが防止される。この場合、前記食込み突起部材３２は、ＦＦＣ４０の位置決めを行う位置決め手段として機能する。   As shown in FIG. 1 or 3, the integrated first guide member 21 and second guide member 31 are in a state where the ends of the FFC 40 are sandwiched from both the front and back surfaces, and the inner surface of the first guide member 21 is The surface of the FFC 40 is in contact with the surface of the reinforcing film 42, and the inner surface of the second guide member 31 is in contact with the surface of the FFC 40 opposite to the reinforcing film 42, that is, the surface on which the signal line 43 is exposed. In this case, in order to hold the FFC 40 more firmly, the inner surface of the first guide member 21 and the inner surface of the second guide member 31 are the surface of the reinforcing film 42 of the FFC 40 and the surface opposite to the reinforcing film 42. In addition, it is desirable that they are in close contact with each other. As described above, the dimension of the second guide member 31 in the short direction is shorter than the dimension of the first guide member 21 in the short direction, and the integrated first guide member 21 and the second guide member 21 are integrated. Since the edge of the rear end side (upper end side in FIG. 1) of the guide member 31 is substantially in the same position with respect to the direction of insertion into the FFC connector 10 (downward direction in FIG. 1), the signal line 43 of the FFC 40 is exposed. A range of a predetermined length from the front end edge on the surface on the outer side is not covered with the second guide member 31 and is exposed. Since the range of the predetermined length is wider than the length of the range where the signal line 43 is exposed, the exposed portion of the signal line 43 is not covered by the second guide member 31. Moreover, since the biting projection member 32 formed on the inner surface of the second guide member 31 bites into the covering of the cable main body 41, the FFC 40 with respect to the second guide member 31 is prevented from moving. In this case, the biting projection member 32 functions as positioning means for positioning the FFC 40.

次に、前記ＦＦＣ用挿入ガイド２０を組立て、ＦＦＣ４０と一体化する工程について説明する。   Next, the process of assembling the FFC insertion guide 20 and integrating it with the FFC 40 will be described.

図７は本発明の第１の実施の形態におけるＦＦＣ用挿入ガイドの組立て工程を示す第１の図、図８は本発明の第１の実施の形態におけるＦＦＣ用挿入ガイドの組立て工程を示す第２の図、図９は本発明の第１の実施の形態におけるＦＦＣ用挿入ガイドの組立て工程を示す第３の図である。   FIG. 7 is a first diagram illustrating the assembly process of the FFC insertion guide in the first embodiment of the present invention, and FIG. 8 is a first diagram illustrating the assembly process of the FFC insertion guide in the first embodiment of the present invention. FIG. 2 and FIG. 9 are third views showing the process of assembling the FFC insertion guide in the first embodiment of the present invention.

まず、図７に示されるように、ＦＦＣ４０を第１ガイド部材２１の内側の面に対して傾斜させた状態にし、ＦＦＣ４０の先端を第１ガイド部材２１の先端に向けて、すなわち、矢印で示される方向に移動させる。これにより、ＦＦＣ４０における耳部４２ａより先端側の側端が、第１ガイド部材２１の堀部２６ａに挿入される。この場合、前記堀部２６ａは、ＦＦＣ４０側端の位置決めを行う位置決め手段として機能する。そして、ＦＦＣ４０の先端が第１ガイド部材２１のガイド端部２７に到達すると、図８に示されるような状態になる。この場合、前記ガイド端部２７は、ＦＦＣ４０の先端の位置決めを行う位置決め手段として機能する。   First, as shown in FIG. 7, the FFC 40 is inclined with respect to the inner surface of the first guide member 21, and the tip of the FFC 40 is directed toward the tip of the first guide member 21, that is, indicated by an arrow. Move in the direction that As a result, the side end of the FFC 40 that is more distal than the ear portion 42 a is inserted into the moat 26 a of the first guide member 21. In this case, the moat 26a functions as a positioning means for positioning the FFC 40 side end. And when the front-end | tip of FFC40 reaches | attains the guide end part 27 of the 1st guide member 21, it will be in a state as shown in FIG. In this case, the guide end portion 27 functions as a positioning means for positioning the tip of the FFC 40.

続いて、この状態において、ＦＦＣ４０を第１ガイド部材２１の内側の面に押し付ける方向、すなわち、図８における矢印で示される方向に移動させる。このとき、第１ガイド部材２１の位置決めボス２５を耳部４２ａの位置決め開口４２ｂに挿入させる。これにより、図９に示されるような状態になる。この場合、前記位置決めボス２５及び位置決め開口４２ｂは、ＦＦＣ４０の位置決めを行う位置決め手段として機能する。   Subsequently, in this state, the FFC 40 is moved in the direction in which the FFC 40 is pressed against the inner surface of the first guide member 21, that is, in the direction indicated by the arrow in FIG. At this time, the positioning boss 25 of the first guide member 21 is inserted into the positioning opening 42b of the ear portion 42a. As a result, the state shown in FIG. 9 is obtained. In this case, the positioning boss 25 and the positioning opening 42b function as positioning means for positioning the FFC 40.

続いて、この状態において、第２ガイド部材３１を第１ガイド部材２１の方向、すなわち、図９における矢印で示される方向に移動させる。このとき、第１ガイド部材２１の位置決めボス２５を第２ガイド部材３１のボス受容孔３４内に進入させる。また、第１ガイド部材２１における第１結合部２４の結合突起２４ａを第２ガイド部材３１における第２結合部３３の結合開口３３ａ内に進入させ、前記結合突起２４ａと結合開口３３ａとを係合させる。   Subsequently, in this state, the second guide member 31 is moved in the direction of the first guide member 21, that is, the direction indicated by the arrow in FIG. At this time, the positioning boss 25 of the first guide member 21 enters the boss receiving hole 34 of the second guide member 31. Further, the coupling protrusion 24a of the first coupling portion 24 in the first guide member 21 is caused to enter the coupling opening 33a of the second coupling portion 33 in the second guide member 31, and the coupling projection 24a and the coupling opening 33a are engaged. Let

これにより、第１ガイド部材２１と第２ガイド部材３１とが、間にＦＦＣ４０を挟んで結合し、ＦＦＣ用挿入ガイド２０が組立てられ、図１又は３に示されるように、ＦＦＣ４０と一体的になる。   As a result, the first guide member 21 and the second guide member 31 are joined with the FFC 40 interposed therebetween, and the FFC insertion guide 20 is assembled. As shown in FIG. Become.

次に、第１ガイド部材２１の先端の形状について説明する。   Next, the shape of the tip of the first guide member 21 will be described.

図１０は本発明の第１の実施の形態におけるＦＦＣ用挿入ガイドの先端の形状を示す第１の図、図１１は本発明の第１の実施の形態におけるＦＦＣ用挿入ガイドの先端の形状を示す第２の図、図１２は本発明の第１の実施の形態におけるＦＦＣ用挿入ガイドの先端の形状を示す第３の図、図１３は本発明の第１の実施の形態におけるＦＦＣ用挿入ガイドの先端の形状を示す第４の図、図１４は本発明の第１の実施の形態におけるＦＦＣ用挿入ガイドの先端の形状を示す第５の図である。   FIG. 10 is a first diagram showing the shape of the tip of the FFC insertion guide according to the first embodiment of the present invention, and FIG. 11 is the shape of the tip of the FFC insertion guide according to the first embodiment of the present invention. FIG. 12 is a third view showing the shape of the tip of the FFC insertion guide in the first embodiment of the present invention, and FIG. 13 is an FFC insertion in the first embodiment of the present invention. FIG. 14 is a fourth diagram showing the shape of the tip of the guide, and FIG. 14 is a fifth diagram showing the shape of the tip of the FFC insertion guide according to the first embodiment of the present invention.

図１０に示されるように、本実施の形態において、第１ガイド部材２１の先端は、ＦＦＣ用コネクタ１０への挿入方向（図１０における右方向）に関して、ＦＦＣ４０の先端よりも突出した位置にあるが、ＦＦＣ４０の先端と同じ位置であってもよい。すなわち、ＦＦＣ４０の先端は、第１ガイド部材２１の先端よりも突出しないようになっている。なお、第２ガイド部材３１の内側の面に形成された食込み突起部材３２がＦＦＣ４０に食込んでおり、ＦＦＣ４０の移動が防止されている。また、ＦＦＣ４０の信号線４３が露出している側の面における先端縁から所定長の範囲が第２ガイド部材３１に覆われずに露出した状態となっているので、信号線４３は、第２ガイド部材３１に覆われておらず、ＦＦＣ用コネクタ１０の端子１３と当接可能になっている。   As shown in FIG. 10, in the present embodiment, the tip of the first guide member 21 is in a position protruding from the tip of the FFC 40 in the insertion direction (the right direction in FIG. 10) into the FFC connector 10. However, the same position as the tip of FFC40 may be sufficient. That is, the front end of the FFC 40 does not protrude beyond the front end of the first guide member 21. In addition, the biting projection member 32 formed on the inner surface of the second guide member 31 bites into the FFC 40, and the movement of the FFC 40 is prevented. In addition, since a predetermined length range from the front end edge of the surface of the FFC 40 where the signal line 43 is exposed is exposed without being covered by the second guide member 31, the signal line 43 is It is not covered with the guide member 31 and can come into contact with the terminal 13 of the FFC connector 10.

そして、図１０に示される例においては、ガイド端部２７が省略され、第１ガイド部材２１の内側の面における先端は他の部分と面一となるように形成されている。また、第１ガイド部材２１の外側の面の縁部２１ａにはアールが形成されているので、ＦＦＣ用挿入ガイド２０の先端部をＦＦＣ用コネクタ１０の挿入口１２に挿入する際に、引っ掛かることなく、スムーズに挿入することができる。   In the example shown in FIG. 10, the guide end 27 is omitted, and the tip on the inner surface of the first guide member 21 is formed so as to be flush with other portions. Further, since the edge 21a of the outer surface of the first guide member 21 is rounded, it is caught when the distal end portion of the FFC insertion guide 20 is inserted into the insertion port 12 of the FFC connector 10. And can be inserted smoothly.

また、図１１に示される例においては、ガイド端部２７が第１ガイド部材２１の内側の面より突出してＦＦＣ４０の先端を保護する保護部２７ａを備える。この場合、該保護部２７ａは、その上面がＦＦＣ４０の上面側（図１１中、上側）に突出している。そのため、ＦＦＣ用挿入ガイド２０の先端部をＦＦＣ用コネクタ１０の挿入口１２に挿入する際に、ＦＦＣ４０の先端面が端子１３に当接することがないので、ＦＦＣ４０の先端面が損傷したり、ＦＦＣ４０の先端が捲（まく）れ上がったりすることがない。また、ガイド端部２７の外側の面の縁部にテーパが形成されているので、ＦＦＣ用挿入ガイド２０の先端部をＦＦＣ用コネクタ１０の挿入口１２に挿入する際に、引っ掛かることなく、スムーズに挿入することができる。なお、保護部２７ａは、信号線４３が露出している側の面とほぼ同一の高さとなる程度に突出していることが望ましい。   In the example shown in FIG. 11, the guide end portion 27 includes a protective portion 27 a that protrudes from the inner surface of the first guide member 21 and protects the tip of the FFC 40. In this case, the upper surface of the protection portion 27a protrudes to the upper surface side (the upper side in FIG. 11) of the FFC 40. Therefore, when the distal end portion of the FFC insertion guide 20 is inserted into the insertion port 12 of the FFC connector 10, the distal end surface of the FFC 40 does not come into contact with the terminals 13. The tip of the stick does not roll up. In addition, since the taper is formed at the edge of the outer surface of the guide end portion 27, when the tip end portion of the FFC insertion guide 20 is inserted into the insertion port 12 of the FFC connector 10, it is smoothly caught. Can be inserted into. Note that it is desirable that the protective portion 27a protrudes to the same level as the surface on which the signal line 43 is exposed.

さらに、図１２に示される例においては、保護部２７ａにおけるＦＦＣ４０の先端面と対向する面が後側に傾斜しており、かつ、保護部２７ａの上面がＦＦＣ４０の上面より高くなるように突出している。そのため、ＦＦＣ用挿入ガイド２０の先端部をＦＦＣ用コネクタ１０の挿入口１２に挿入する際に、端子１３が前記間隙に進入することがないので、ＦＦＣ４０の先端面が端子１３に当接することをより確実に防止することができる。   Furthermore, in the example shown in FIG. 12, the surface of the protection portion 27 a that faces the front end surface of the FFC 40 is inclined rearward, and the upper surface of the protection portion 27 a protrudes higher than the upper surface of the FFC 40. Yes. Therefore, when the distal end portion of the FFC insertion guide 20 is inserted into the insertion port 12 of the FFC connector 10, the terminal 13 does not enter the gap, so that the distal end surface of the FFC 40 contacts the terminal 13. It can prevent more reliably.

また、図１３に示される例においては、保護部２７ａの下にＦＦＣ４０の先端が進入する凹部２７ｂが形成され、保護部２７ａがＦＦＣ４０の上面における先端近傍部を覆うようになっている。そのため、ＦＦＣ用挿入ガイド２０の先端部をＦＦＣ用コネクタ１０の挿入口１２に挿入する際に、端子１３がＦＦＣ４０の先端面に当接することをより確実に防止することができる。   In the example shown in FIG. 13, a recess 27 b into which the tip of the FFC 40 enters is formed under the protection part 27 a, and the protection part 27 a covers the vicinity of the tip on the upper surface of the FFC 40. For this reason, when the distal end portion of the FFC insertion guide 20 is inserted into the insertion port 12 of the FFC connector 10, the terminal 13 can be more reliably prevented from coming into contact with the distal end surface of the FFC 40.

さらに、図１４に示される例においては、保護部２７ａの上面とＦＦＣ４０の上面とがほぼ同一の高さであり、ＦＦＣ４０の先端が下方に向けて傾斜した状態で凹部２７ｂに進入するようになっている。そのため、ＦＦＣ用挿入ガイド２０の先端部をＦＦＣ用コネクタ１０の挿入口１２に挿入する際に、端子１３が保護部２７ａによって上方に大きく変形させられることがない。したがって、端子１３が損傷することがなく、また、端子１３から受ける挿入抵抗を低減することができる。   Further, in the example shown in FIG. 14, the upper surface of the protection portion 27 a and the upper surface of the FFC 40 are substantially the same height, and the front end of the FFC 40 enters the recess 27 b with the tip inclined downward. ing. Therefore, when the tip end portion of the FFC insertion guide 20 is inserted into the insertion port 12 of the FFC connector 10, the terminal 13 is not greatly deformed upward by the protection portion 27a. Therefore, the terminal 13 is not damaged, and the insertion resistance received from the terminal 13 can be reduced.

次に、前記ＦＦＣ用コネクタ１０の構成を詳細に説明する。   Next, the configuration of the FFC connector 10 will be described in detail.

図１５は本発明の第１の実施の形態におけるＦＦＣ用コネクタを示す三面図、図１６は本発明の第１の実施の形態におけるＦＦＣ用コネクタを示す断面図である。なお、図１５（ａ）は正面図、図１５（ｂ）は下面図、図１５（ｃ）は側面図である。また、図１６は図１５（ｂ）のＡ−Ａ矢視断面図である。   FIG. 15 is a three-side view showing the FFC connector in the first embodiment of the present invention, and FIG. 16 is a cross-sectional view showing the FFC connector in the first embodiment of the present invention. 15A is a front view, FIG. 15B is a bottom view, and FIG. 15C is a side view. FIG. 16 is a cross-sectional view taken along arrow AA in FIG.

本実施の形態において、端子１３は、金属板を打抜き、曲げ加工を施すことによって形成され、図１６に示されるように、ＦＦＣ用コネクタ１０のハウジング１１の各端子受入溝１６内に１つずつ装填されている。また、前記ＦＦＣ用コネクタ１０は、いわゆるストレートタイプのコネクタであり、図１５及び１６に示されるように、挿入口１２の開口が上を向いた姿勢で、下面が後述される基板５５の面に取付けられて実装される。この場合、端子１３のテール部１３ｃが基板５５の面上に形成された配線にはんだ付によって接続され、ネイル１５の下面も基板５５の面上に形成された接続パッドにはんだ付によって接続される。   In the present embodiment, the terminals 13 are formed by punching a metal plate and bending it, and as shown in FIG. 16, one terminal 13 is provided in each terminal receiving groove 16 of the housing 11 of the FFC connector 10. It is loaded. Further, the FFC connector 10 is a so-called straight type connector, and as shown in FIGS. 15 and 16, the opening of the insertion port 12 faces upward and the lower surface is attached to the surface of the substrate 55 described later. To be implemented. In this case, the tail portion 13c of the terminal 13 is connected to the wiring formed on the surface of the substrate 55 by soldering, and the lower surface of the nail 15 is also connected to the connection pad formed on the surface of the substrate 55 by soldering. .

そして、前記端子１３は、概略Ｓ字形状を有し、ＦＦＣ４０の信号線４３に電気的に接続されるコンタクト片として機能する接続腕部１３ａが下から上に向けて延在している。該接続腕部１３ａの自由端である上端の近傍には膨出形状を備え、前記信号線４３の表面に当接するコンタクト部１３ｂが形成されている。そして、前記端子１３は、ばね性を備え、荷重が付与されていないフリーな状態では、図１６に示されるように、接続腕部１３ａのほぼ全体が端子受入溝１６から突出して挿入口１２内に位置するような形状となっている。なお、ＦＦＣ用挿入ガイド２０の先端部をＦＦＣ用コネクタ１０の挿入口１２に挿入されると、後述されるように、ＦＦＣ４０によって接続腕部１３ａが端子受入溝１６の方向に押され、端子１３が弾性変形する。そして、前記ＦＦＣ用挿入ガイド２０は、ＦＦＣ４０の信号線４３の露出した面が端子１３の方を向くようにしてハウジング１１の挿入口１２に挿入されるものとする。   The terminal 13 has a substantially S-shape, and a connecting arm portion 13a that functions as a contact piece electrically connected to the signal line 43 of the FFC 40 extends from the bottom to the top. In the vicinity of the upper end, which is the free end of the connection arm portion 13a, a contact portion 13b having a bulging shape and contacting the surface of the signal line 43 is formed. The terminal 13 has a spring property, and in a free state where no load is applied, as shown in FIG. 16, almost the entire connecting arm portion 13 a protrudes from the terminal receiving groove 16 to enter the insertion port 12. It is the shape which is located in. When the distal end portion of the FFC insertion guide 20 is inserted into the insertion port 12 of the FFC connector 10, the connecting arm portion 13a is pushed in the direction of the terminal receiving groove 16 by the FFC 40, as will be described later. Is elastically deformed. The FFC insertion guide 20 is inserted into the insertion port 12 of the housing 11 so that the exposed surface of the signal line 43 of the FFC 40 faces the terminal 13.

また、前記端子１３の基部１３ｄは、垂直方向に延在し、端子受入溝１６の両側壁を構成する面によって、左右方向（図１６における図面に垂直な方向）から挟まれて固定されている。さらに、前記基部１３ｄの下端部は、ほぼ直角に曲げられ、ＦＦＣ用コネクタ１０の外方に向けて突出し、テール部１３ｃを形成する。前記基部１３ｄ及びテール部１３ｃは概略Ｌ字形状を有する。   Further, the base portion 13d of the terminal 13 extends in the vertical direction, and is fixed by being sandwiched from the left and right direction (direction perpendicular to the drawing in FIG. 16) by the surfaces constituting both side walls of the terminal receiving groove 16. . Further, the lower end portion of the base portion 13d is bent at a substantially right angle and protrudes outward from the FFC connector 10 to form a tail portion 13c. The base portion 13d and the tail portion 13c have a substantially L shape.

次に、前記ＦＦＣ用挿入ガイド２０をＦＦＣ用コネクタ１０に嵌合する工程について説明する。   Next, a process of fitting the FFC insertion guide 20 to the FFC connector 10 will be described.

図１７は本発明の第１の実施の形態におけるＦＦＣ用挿入ガイドをＦＦＣ用コネクタに嵌合する前の状態を示す断面図、図１８は本発明の第１の実施の形態におけるＦＦＣ用挿入ガイドをＦＦＣ用コネクタに嵌合した状態を示す断面図である。なお、図１７は図１に対応し、図１８は図２に対応する。   FIG. 17 is a cross-sectional view showing a state before the FFC insertion guide according to the first embodiment of the present invention is fitted to the FFC connector, and FIG. 18 is an FFC insertion guide according to the first embodiment of the present invention. It is sectional drawing which shows the state which fitted to the connector for FFC. 17 corresponds to FIG. 1, and FIG. 18 corresponds to FIG.

まず、オペレータが手作業によって、図１７に示されるように、ＦＦＣ用挿入ガイド２０を先端が真下を向くようにして、ＦＦＣ用コネクタ１０の真上に位置させる。この場合、ＦＦＣ４０の信号線４３の露出した面が端子１３の方を向くように、ＦＦＣ用挿入ガイド２０の向きが調整されている。そして、ＦＦＣ用挿入ガイド２０を図１７における矢印で示される方向に、すなわち、真下方向に移動させ、第１ガイド部材２１の先端をＦＦＣ用コネクタ１０の挿入口１２に挿入する。   First, as shown in FIG. 17, the operator manually positions the FFC insertion guide 20 directly above the FFC connector 10 so that the tip is directed downward. In this case, the orientation of the FFC insertion guide 20 is adjusted so that the exposed surface of the signal line 43 of the FFC 40 faces the terminal 13. Then, the FFC insertion guide 20 is moved in the direction indicated by the arrow in FIG. 17, that is, directly downward, and the tip of the first guide member 21 is inserted into the insertion port 12 of the FFC connector 10.

この場合、第１ガイド部材２１の外側の面の縁部２１ａにはアールが形成され、ガイド端部２７の外側の面の縁部にテーパが形成されているので、ＦＦＣ用挿入ガイド２０の先端部をＦＦＣ用コネクタ１０の挿入口１２に挿入する際に、引っ掛かることなく、スムーズに挿入することができる。また、第１ガイド部材２１のガイド端部２７がＦＦＣ４０の先端を保護する保護部２７ａを備え、該保護部２７ａの上面がＦＦＣ４０の信号線４３が露出している側の面とほぼ同一あるいはそれ以上の高さとなる程度に突出しているので、ＦＦＣ４０の先端面が端子１３に当接することがないので、ＦＦＣ４０の先端面が損傷したり、ＦＦＣ４０の先端が捲れ上がったりすることがない。   In this case, the edge 21a of the outer surface of the first guide member 21 is rounded, and the edge of the outer surface of the guide end 27 is tapered, so the tip of the FFC insertion guide 20 When the portion is inserted into the insertion port 12 of the FFC connector 10, it can be smoothly inserted without being caught. In addition, the guide end portion 27 of the first guide member 21 includes a protection portion 27a that protects the tip of the FFC 40, and the upper surface of the protection portion 27a is substantially the same as the surface of the FFC 40 on which the signal line 43 is exposed or the same. Since the front end surface of the FFC 40 does not come into contact with the terminal 13 because it protrudes to the above height, the front end surface of the FFC 40 is not damaged and the front end of the FFC 40 is not rolled up.

そして、第１ガイド部材２１の先端がＦＦＣ用コネクタ１０の挿入口１２に適切に挿入され、ＦＦＣ用挿入ガイド２０のＦＦＣ用コネクタ１０への嵌合が完了すると、図１８に示されるようになる。この場合、第１ガイド部材２１の先端面が挿入口１２の底面に当接した状態となる。そして、ＦＦＣ４０のケーブル本体部４１における露出している信号線４３が端子１３の接続腕部１３ａにおけるコンタクト部１３ｂに当接し、前記信号線４３と端子１３とが電気的に接続されている。なお、前記端子１３は、コンタクト部１３ｂがＦＦＣ４０の信号線４３に当接して図１８における右方向に押されるので、全体的に弾性変形した状態となっている。そのため、前記端子１３がばねとして機能し、そのばね力によってコンタクト部１３ｂが信号線４３に押し付けられた状態となるので、信号線４３と端子１３との電気的な接続が確実に、かつ、安定的に維持される。   Then, when the distal end of the first guide member 21 is properly inserted into the insertion port 12 of the FFC connector 10 and the fitting of the FFC insertion guide 20 to the FFC connector 10 is completed, it is as shown in FIG. . In this case, the distal end surface of the first guide member 21 is in contact with the bottom surface of the insertion port 12. The exposed signal line 43 in the cable main body 41 of the FFC 40 abuts on the contact part 13b in the connection arm part 13a of the terminal 13, and the signal line 43 and the terminal 13 are electrically connected. The terminal 13 is elastically deformed as a whole because the contact portion 13b abuts on the signal line 43 of the FFC 40 and is pushed rightward in FIG. Therefore, since the terminal 13 functions as a spring and the contact portion 13b is pressed against the signal line 43 by the spring force, the electrical connection between the signal line 43 and the terminal 13 is ensured and stable. Maintained.

また、ＦＦＣ用挿入ガイド２０のＦＦＣ用コネクタ１０への嵌合が完了すると、第１ガイド部材２１の係合用腕部２２に形成された係合用突起部２２ａがＦＦＣ用コネクタ１０の係合用膨出部１４に形成された係合用開口部１４ａの内部に進入し、該係合用開口部１４ａと係合する。これにより、ＦＦＣ用挿入ガイド２０のＦＦＣ用コネクタ１０への嵌合状態が確実に、かつ、安定的に維持され、ＦＦＣ用挿入ガイド２０がＦＦＣ用コネクタ１０から抜け出ることが防止される。すなわち、ＦＦＣ用挿入ガイド２０とＦＦＣ用コネクタ１０とが確実にロックされる。   Further, when the fitting of the FFC insertion guide 20 to the FFC connector 10 is completed, the engaging protrusion 22a formed on the engaging arm portion 22 of the first guide member 21 causes the FFC connector 10 to swell. It enters the inside of the opening 14a for engagement formed in the part 14, and engages with this opening 14a for engagement. Thereby, the fitting state of the FFC insertion guide 20 to the FFC connector 10 is reliably and stably maintained, and the FFC insertion guide 20 is prevented from coming out of the FFC connector 10. That is, the FFC insertion guide 20 and the FFC connector 10 are securely locked.

ところで、第１ガイド部材２１の先端をＦＦＣ用コネクタ１０の挿入口１２に挿入している途中であって、ＦＦＣ用挿入ガイド２０のＦＦＣ用コネクタ１０への嵌合が完了する直前の状態においては、係合用突起部２２ａの先端面（図１８における左側の面）が係合用膨出部１４の内側の面（図１８における左側の面）に当接しながら下方向に移動するので、係合用腕部２２が弾性的に変形させられる。そして、ＦＦＣ用挿入ガイド２０のＦＦＣ用コネクタ１０への嵌合が完了した時点で、係合用突起部２２ａが係合用開口部１４ａの内部に急激に進入するので、係合用腕部２２は、それ自体のばねの作用によって元の姿勢に急激に復元して、位置規制用突起部２２ｃが規制用部材２３の内側の面に衝撃的に当接する。そのため、パッチンというような音が発生し、また、ＦＦＣ用挿入ガイド２０全体にわずかな衝撃が伝達される。なお、元の姿勢に急激に復元した係合用腕部２２は、規制用部材２３によって位置が規制されるために、係合用膨出部１４に対しては衝撃的に当接しないので、ＦＦＣ用コネクタ１０に衝撃が伝達されることがない。   By the way, in a state in which the front end of the first guide member 21 is being inserted into the insertion port 12 of the FFC connector 10 and immediately before the fitting of the FFC insertion guide 20 to the FFC connector 10 is completed. Since the front end surface (left surface in FIG. 18) of the engaging protrusion 22a moves downward while abutting the inner surface (left surface in FIG. 18) of the engaging bulge portion 14, the engaging arm The part 22 is elastically deformed. Then, when the fitting of the FFC insertion guide 20 to the FFC connector 10 is completed, the engaging protrusion 22a suddenly enters the engaging opening 14a. The original posture is suddenly restored by the action of its own spring, and the position restricting projection 22 c comes into impact contact with the inner surface of the restricting member 23. Therefore, a sound such as patching is generated, and a slight impact is transmitted to the entire FFC insertion guide 20. Since the position of the engaging arm portion 22 that has been rapidly restored to the original posture is regulated by the regulating member 23, it does not impactly contact the bulging portion 14 for engagement. The impact is not transmitted to the connector 10.

これにより、手作業によってＦＦＣ用挿入ガイド２０のＦＦＣ用コネクタ１０への嵌合を行っているオペレータは、前記音を聴覚によって認識し、かつ、前記衝撃を触覚によって認識することができ、ＦＦＣ用挿入ガイド２０のＦＦＣ用コネクタ１０への嵌合が完了したことを把握する。また、前記オペレータは、係合用突起部２２ａが係合用開口部１４ａの内部に進入していることを視覚によって認識することができるので、これによっても、ＦＦＣ用挿入ガイド２０のＦＦＣ用コネクタ１０への嵌合が完了したことを把握することができる。   As a result, an operator who manually engages the FFC insertion guide 20 with the FFC connector 10 can recognize the sound by hearing and can recognize the impact by tactile sense. It is grasped that the fitting of the insertion guide 20 to the FFC connector 10 is completed. Further, since the operator can visually recognize that the engaging protrusion 22a has entered the engaging opening 14a, the operator can also connect to the FFC connector 10 of the FFC insertion guide 20. It is possible to grasp that the fitting has been completed.

なお、ＦＦＣ用挿入ガイド２０のＦＦＣ用コネクタ１０への嵌合が適切に行われない場合、例えば、第１ガイド部材２１の先端面が挿入口１２の底面に当接していない、ＦＦＣ用挿入ガイド２０がＦＦＣ用コネクタ１０に対して斜めになっている等の場合には、係合用突起部２２ａと係合用開口部１４ａとが係合しない。そのため、オペレータは、係合用突起部２２ａと係合用開口部１４ａとが係合したことを、前述したように、聴覚、触覚、視覚等によって認識することによって、ＦＦＣ用挿入ガイド２０のＦＦＣ用コネクタ１０への嵌合が適切に行われたことを認識することができる。   When the FFC insertion guide 20 is not properly fitted to the FFC connector 10, for example, the FFC insertion guide in which the front end surface of the first guide member 21 is not in contact with the bottom surface of the insertion port 12 is used. When 20 is inclined with respect to the FFC connector 10, the engaging protrusion 22a and the engaging opening 14a are not engaged. Therefore, as described above, the operator recognizes that the engaging protrusion 22a and the engaging opening 14a are engaged by hearing, tactile sensation, visual sense, etc., so that the FFC connector of the FFC insertion guide 20 is used. It can be recognized that the fitting to 10 has been performed appropriately.

また、ＦＦＣ用挿入ガイド２０のＦＦＣ用コネクタ１０への嵌合を解除して、ＦＦＣ用挿入ガイド２０をＦＦＣ用コネクタ１０から取外す場合には、オペレータが手作業によって、操作用膨出部２２ｂを図１８における右方向に押し、係合用腕部２２を弾性的に変形させて係合用突起部２２ａと係合用開口部１４ａとの係合を解除させる。そして、操作用膨出部２２ｂを図１８における右方向に押した状態を維持しながら、ＦＦＣ用挿入ガイド２０を図１７における矢印で示される方向と反対方向に、すなわち、真上方向に移動させる。これにより、ＦＦＣ用挿入ガイド２０をＦＦＣ用コネクタ１０から取外すことができる。   When the FFC insertion guide 20 is released from the FFC connector 10 and the FFC insertion guide 20 is removed from the FFC connector 10, the operator manually moves the operation bulge 22b. Pushing in the right direction in FIG. 18 elastically deforms the engaging arm 22 to release the engagement between the engaging protrusion 22a and the engaging opening 14a. Then, the FFC insertion guide 20 is moved in the direction opposite to the direction indicated by the arrow in FIG. 17, that is, directly above, while maintaining the state where the operation bulge portion 22b is pushed rightward in FIG. . Thereby, the FFC insertion guide 20 can be detached from the FFC connector 10.

このように、本実施の形態において、ＦＦＣ用挿入ガイド２０は、ＦＦＣ４０の幅方向に延在する第１ガイド部材２１及び第２ガイド部材３１を有し、ＦＦＣ４０の端部を表裏両面から挟み込んだ状態で第１ガイド部材２１と第２ガイド部材３１とを結合させることによって、ＦＦＣ４０の先端近傍においてＦＦＣ４０の外周全面に接触、好ましくは密着して取付けられる。この場合、ＦＦＣ４０の側端が第１ガイド部材２１の堀部２６ａに挿入され、ＦＦＣ４０の耳部４２ａの位置決め開口４２ｂに第１ガイド部材２１の位置決めボス２５が挿入され、ＦＦＣ４０の第２ガイド部材３１側の面に食込み突起部材３２が食込むことによって、ＦＦＣ用挿入ガイド２０がＦＦＣ４０に対して、前後左右上下の６方向に対して移動不能に取付けられる。   As described above, in the present embodiment, the FFC insertion guide 20 includes the first guide member 21 and the second guide member 31 extending in the width direction of the FFC 40 and sandwiches the end portion of the FFC 40 from both the front and back surfaces. By joining the first guide member 21 and the second guide member 31 in a state, they are attached to, preferably in close contact with, the entire outer periphery of the FFC 40 in the vicinity of the tip of the FFC 40. In this case, the side end of the FFC 40 is inserted into the trench 26 a of the first guide member 21, the positioning boss 25 of the first guide member 21 is inserted into the positioning opening 42 b of the ear 42 a of the FFC 40, and the second guide member 31 of the FFC 40. When the biting projection member 32 bites into the side surface, the FFC insertion guide 20 is attached to the FFC 40 so as to be immovable with respect to the six directions of front, rear, left, right and up.

そのため、人手によってＦＦＣ用挿入ガイド２０を容易に把持することができ、かつ、ＦＦＣ４０の先端近傍が変形することがないので、ＦＦＣ用挿入ガイド２０をＦＦＣ用コネクタ１０へ嵌合させてＦＦＣ４０をＦＦＣ用コネクタ１０に接続させる際に、ＦＦＣ４０が変形することがない。また、ＦＦＣ４０の先端部をＦＦＣ用コネクタ１０の挿入口１２に対して適正な姿勢で、かつ、容易に挿入し、接続させることができる。   Therefore, the FFC insertion guide 20 can be easily gripped by hand, and the vicinity of the tip of the FFC 40 is not deformed. Therefore, the FFC insertion guide 20 is fitted to the FFC connector 10 so that the FFC 40 is FFC. The FFC 40 is not deformed when the connector 10 is connected. Moreover, the front-end | tip part of FFC40 can be easily inserted and connected with the appropriate attitude | position with respect to the insertion port 12 of the connector 10 for FFC.

さらに、ＦＦＣ用挿入ガイド２０のＦＦＣ用コネクタ１０への嵌合が完了すると、第１ガイド部材２１の係合用腕部２２がＦＦＣ用コネクタ１０の係合用膨出部１４とが係合して、ＦＦＣ用挿入ガイド２０とＦＦＣ用コネクタ１０とがロックされる。その際に、係合用腕部２２と係合用膨出部１４とが係合したことが、聴覚、触覚、視覚等によって認識することができるので、ＦＦＣ用挿入ガイド２０のＦＦＣ用コネクタ１０への嵌合が適切に行われ、ＦＦＣ４０がＦＦＣ用コネクタ１０に適切に接続されたことを容易に確認することができる。また、ＦＦＣ用挿入ガイド２０とＦＦＣ用コネクタ１０とが確実にロックされるので、ＦＦＣ４０とＦＦＣ用コネクタ１０との接続が不用意に解除されることがなく、信頼性を向上させることができる。   Further, when the fitting of the FFC insertion guide 20 to the FFC connector 10 is completed, the engaging arm portion 22 of the first guide member 21 is engaged with the engaging bulging portion 14 of the FFC connector 10, The FFC insertion guide 20 and the FFC connector 10 are locked. At this time, since the engagement of the engaging arm portion 22 and the engaging bulge portion 14 can be recognized by hearing, tactile sensation, visual sense, etc., the FFC insertion guide 20 is connected to the FFC connector 10. It is possible to easily confirm that the fitting is properly performed and the FFC 40 is properly connected to the FFC connector 10. Further, since the FFC insertion guide 20 and the FFC connector 10 are securely locked, the connection between the FFC 40 and the FFC connector 10 is not inadvertently released, and the reliability can be improved.

次に、本発明の第２の実施の形態について説明する。なお、第１の実施の形態と同じ構造を有するものについては、同じ符号を付与することによってその説明を省略する。また、前記第１の実施の形態と同じ動作及び同じ効果についても、その説明を省略する。   Next, a second embodiment of the present invention will be described. In addition, about the thing which has the same structure as 1st Embodiment, the description is abbreviate | omitted by providing the same code | symbol. The description of the same operation and the same effect as those of the first embodiment is also omitted.

図１９は本発明の第２の実施の形態におけるＦＦＣ用コネクタを示す三面図、図２０は本発明の第２の実施の形態におけるＦＦＣ用コネクタを示す断面図である。なお、図１９（ａ）は正面図、図１９（ｂ）は下面図、図１９（ｃ）は側面図である。また、図２０は図１９（ｂ）のＢ−Ｂ矢視断面図である。   FIG. 19 is a trihedral view showing the FFC connector in the second embodiment of the present invention, and FIG. 20 is a cross-sectional view showing the FFC connector in the second embodiment of the present invention. 19A is a front view, FIG. 19B is a bottom view, and FIG. 19C is a side view. FIG. 20 is a cross-sectional view taken along the line BB in FIG.

本実施の形態において、ＦＦＣ用コネクタ１０は、いわゆるライトアングルタイプのコネクタであり、図１９及び２０に示されるように、基板５５に対して横向きの状態で、すなわち、挿入口１２の開口が基板５５と平行な方向を向いた状態で、基板５５にネイル１５をはんだ付することによって実装される。なお、係合用膨出部１４が上を向くように、該係合用膨出部１４と反対側の面が基板５５と向かい合うようにして実装される。そのため、ネイル１５がハウジング１１に取付けられる位置及び向きが、前記第１の実施の形態と相違する。また、端子１３における基部１３ｄ及びテール部１３ｃの形状も、前記第１の実施の形態と相違し、図２０に示されるように、前記基部１３ｄの側端部がクランク状に曲げられ、ＦＦＣ用コネクタ１０の外方に向けて突出し、基部１３ｄと平行で段違いなテール部１３ｃを形成する。   In the present embodiment, the FFC connector 10 is a so-called right angle type connector, and as shown in FIGS. 19 and 20, the FFC connector 10 is in a state of being sideways with respect to the substrate 55, that is, the opening of the insertion port 12 is the substrate. The nail 15 is mounted on the substrate 55 by soldering the substrate 55 in a state in which the direction is parallel to the substrate 55. It is mounted such that the surface opposite to the engaging bulging portion 14 faces the substrate 55 so that the engaging bulging portion 14 faces upward. Therefore, the position and direction in which the nail 15 is attached to the housing 11 are different from those in the first embodiment. Further, the shapes of the base 13d and the tail 13c in the terminal 13 are also different from those of the first embodiment. As shown in FIG. 20, the side end of the base 13d is bent into a crank shape, and is used for FFC. A tail portion 13c is formed which protrudes outward from the connector 10 and is parallel to the base portion 13d.

ＦＦＣ用コネクタ１０のその他の点の構成、並びに、ＦＦＣ用挿入ガイド２０及びＦＦＣ４０の構成については、前記第１の実施の形態と同様であるので、説明を省略する。   Other configurations of the FFC connector 10 and configurations of the FFC insertion guide 20 and the FFC 40 are the same as those in the first embodiment, and thus description thereof is omitted.

次に、本実施の形態において、ＦＦＣ用挿入ガイド２０をＦＦＣ用コネクタ１０に嵌合する工程について説明する。   Next, in the present embodiment, a process of fitting the FFC insertion guide 20 to the FFC connector 10 will be described.

図２１は本発明の第２の実施の形態におけるＦＦＣ用挿入ガイドをＦＦＣ用コネクタに嵌合する前の状態を示す断面図、図２２は本発明の第２の実施の形態におけるＦＦＣ用挿入ガイドをＦＦＣ用コネクタに嵌合した状態を示す断面図である。   FIG. 21 is a sectional view showing a state before the FFC insertion guide according to the second embodiment of the present invention is fitted to the FFC connector, and FIG. 22 is an FFC insertion guide according to the second embodiment of the present invention. It is sectional drawing which shows the state which fitted to the connector for FFC.

まず、オペレータが手作業によって、図２１に示されるように、ＦＦＣ用挿入ガイド２０を先端が真横を向くようにして、ＦＦＣ用コネクタ１０の真横に位置させる。この場合、ＦＦＣ４０の信号線４３の露出した面が端子１３の方を向くように、すなわち、横を向くようにＦＦＣ用挿入ガイド２０の向きが調整されている。そして、ＦＦＣ用挿入ガイド２０を図２１における矢印で示される方向に、すなわち、基板５５に対して平行となるように横方向に移動させ、第１ガイド部材２１の先端をＦＦＣ用コネクタ１０の挿入口１２に挿入する。   First, as shown in FIG. 21, the operator manually positions the FFC insertion guide 20 directly beside the FFC connector 10 with the tip facing directly beside. In this case, the direction of the FFC insertion guide 20 is adjusted so that the exposed surface of the signal line 43 of the FFC 40 faces the terminal 13, that is, the side. Then, the FFC insertion guide 20 is moved in the direction indicated by the arrow in FIG. 21, that is, in the lateral direction so as to be parallel to the substrate 55, and the tip of the first guide member 21 is inserted into the FFC connector 10. Insert into mouth 12.

そして、第１ガイド部材２１の先端がＦＦＣ用コネクタ１０の挿入口１２に適切に挿入され、ＦＦＣ用挿入ガイド２０のＦＦＣ用コネクタ１０への嵌合が完了すると、図２２に示されるようになる。この場合、第１ガイド部材２１の係合用腕部２２に形成された係合用突起部２２ａがＦＦＣ用コネクタ１０の係合用膨出部１４に形成された係合用開口部１４ａの内部に進入し、該係合用開口部１４ａと係合する。本実施の形態においては、係合用膨出部１４が上を向いているので、オペレータは、係合用突起部２２ａが係合用開口部１４ａの内部に進入していることを視覚によって容易に認識することができ、これにより、ＦＦＣ用挿入ガイド２０のＦＦＣ用コネクタ１０への嵌合が完了したことを把握することができる。   Then, when the distal end of the first guide member 21 is properly inserted into the insertion port 12 of the FFC connector 10 and the fitting of the FFC insertion guide 20 to the FFC connector 10 is completed, it is as shown in FIG. . In this case, the engaging protrusion 22a formed on the engaging arm 22 of the first guide member 21 enters the inside of the engaging opening 14a formed on the engaging bulge 14 of the FFC connector 10, Engage with the engaging opening 14a. In this embodiment, since the engaging bulging portion 14 faces upward, the operator easily recognizes visually that the engaging protrusion 22a has entered the engaging opening 14a. Thus, it can be grasped that the fitting of the FFC insertion guide 20 to the FFC connector 10 is completed.

その他の点の動作及び効果については、前記第１の実施の形態と同様であるので、説明を省略する。   Other operations and effects are the same as those in the first embodiment, and a description thereof will be omitted.
