Description

  The present invention relates to an apparatus for holding an object.

  For example, in automobiles, there are devices that hold objects such as fluid conduits used for fuel systems, lubrication systems, etc., and harnesses and cables used for electrical equipment.

  As this holding device, for example, the first member and the second member coupled by a hinge portion are configured to sandwich the middle portion of the object, and the anti-hinge portion between the first member and the second member is used. On the side, there is one in which a locking portion and a locked portion as a set of locking means are provided separately.

  In such a holding device, when a load that separates the first member and the second member is generated by pulling the object, each hooked portion (nail shape) of the locking portion and the locked portion is generated. ) May come into contact with each other and crush or break. In such a case, since the coupling between the first member and the second member is released, the object cannot be held.

In view of such circumstances, in order to strengthen the coupling between the first member and the second member, a set of locks are also provided on the hinge portion side of the first member and the second member in addition to the locking means. It has been considered that a locking portion and a locked portion as means are provided separately to form a double lock structure (see Patent Documents 1 to 4).
JP 2001-317510 A Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 63-194521 JP 2004-242478 A JP 2001-90870 A

  If the double lock structure is used as in the conventional example, the coupling strength between the first member and the second member is increased as compared with the single lock structure. However, in each of the above conventional examples, when a load is generated that causes the first member and the second member to be separated from each other, this load is applied to each hooked portion (claw between the locking portion and the locked portion of each set). Since each of the hook portions is easily damaged, the hook portion is easily damaged. When such a breakage occurs, the first member and the second member are uncoupled as described above, and the object may not be held.

  According to the present invention, in the object holding device that holds the object in a state of covering the object with the first member and the second member that are coupled by the hinge portion, a load is generated so as to separate the first member and the second member. However, an object of the present invention is to increase the holding ability of the object by maintaining the locking function by the locking means that couples the two members.

An object holding device according to the present invention holds an object in a state of covering an object with a first member and a second member that are joined by a hinge portion, and the first member and the second member include both the members. An object holding device in which a locking part and a locked part as a locking means for coupling the two are provided separately, and in a state where the object is held, the first member and the second member are separated. The hinge portion is elastically deformed or plastically deformed to absorb and attenuate the load before each hooked portion of the locking portion and the locked portion exerts a force with each other in accordance with the generation of the load to be applied. It is characterized by being.

  In this case, since the load that attempts to separate the first member and the second member is absorbed and attenuated by the hinge portion, each hooked portion of the locking portion and the locked portion is less likely to be damaged. . As a result, the first member and the second member are not easily separated from each other, so that the area of the object held by the two members is not exposed to the outside, and the object does not jump out.

  The first member and the second member can be provided with a locking portion and a locked portion as locking means for coupling the both members. In this case, a so-called double lock structure is obtained, and the lock strength is improved.

  The one locking means is provided on the anti-hinge part side of the first member and the second member, and the other locking means is provided on the hinge part side of the first member and the second member. Can be.

  If the arrangement positions of the plurality of locking means are specified in this way, even if the hinge portion is damaged, the coupled state between the first member and the second member is maintained, so that the object can be held continuously. Become.

  Clearances are respectively provided between the respective hooking portions of the locking portion and the locked portion and the butting surfaces of the two members on the hinge portion side, and the clearances in the respective hooking portions are the two members. It can be set to be equal to or greater than the clearance between the butting surfaces.

  In this case, in order to absorb and attenuate the load, the clearance can be easily adjusted by managing the clearance.

  The first member has a bottomed cylindrical shape that can accommodate the object, and the second member has a lid shape that covers an opening of the bottomed cylindrical first member. it can.

  In this case, since the object can be concealed from the outside, it is possible to protect in addition to holding the object.

  A wall portion of the bottomed cylindrical first member has an opening portion for projecting a part of the object to the outside, and a chamfer is provided at a corner portion on the outer surface side of the wall portion in the opening portion. Can be.

  In this case, for example, the opening can be used to hold a long object, and the portion protruding from the opening in the long object is pulled in the radial direction. Even if the object interferes with the corner portion of the opening, stress is less likely to concentrate on the interference portion, so that the object is not easily damaged.

  In the case where the object to be held is a linear member, both the members can be configured to hold in a state in which a portion excluding a middle portion in the longitudinal direction of the object is exposed to the outside. In this case, it can be set as the structure suitable for hold | maintaining the object which consists of a linear member.

When the object to be held is a fluid communication pipe having a configuration in which a first pipe and a second pipe are connected in communication via a connector, the two members are a connection end of the connector and the first pipe, and a second pipe. It can be set as the structure hold | maintained in the state which exposes the area | region except the area | region containing these connection ends to the exterior.

  In this case, it can be set as the structure suitable for hold | maintaining the object which consists of a fluid pipe of a composite structure.

  According to the present invention, even when a load that tries to separate the first member and the second member is generated, the lock function by the locking means that couples the two members can be maintained, and the object holding capability is improved. Can be increased.

  Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. 1 to 8 show an embodiment of an object holding device according to the present invention. In these drawings, 1 is an object, and 10 is an object holding device.

  Examples of the object 1 include, but are not limited to, a fluid communication pipe used for a fuel system or a lubrication system of an automobile or the like, or a linear member such as a harness or cable used for an electric device or the like.

  In this embodiment, as shown in FIGS. 1 and 4, as the object 1, a first pipe 2 having flexibility such as rubber and a hard second pipe 3 such as metal are connected to each other using a connector 4. The fuel hose having the configuration is taken as an example. The second pipe 3 is bent in an L shape.

  The object holding device 10 covers and protects the outer peripheral portion of the connector 4 of the object 1 (the region including the connection end of the connector 4, the first pipe 2, and the connection end of the second pipe 3). The first member 20 and the second member 30 are coupled to each other by a hinge portion 40.

  The first member 20 has a first long wall portion 22, a second long wall portion 23, a first short wall portion 24, and a second short wall portion 25 provided integrally in a posture orthogonal to the four sides of the belt-like bottom wall portion 21. Is formed into a bottomed rectangular tube shape.

  The first short wall portion 24 and the second short wall portion 25 are provided with openings 24a and 25a made of U-shaped notches that open toward the upper end side thereof. A support piece 26 that supports the L-shaped second pipe 3 is integrally provided on the bottom wall portion 21 on the second short wall portion 25 side.

  In such an internal space 27 of the first member 20, the periphery of the connector 4 of the object 1 is accommodated and held, and the first pipe 2 is formed in the opening 24 a of the first short wall portion 24. The second pipe 3 is engaged with the opening 25a of the two short wall portions 25, respectively.

  The second member 30 is like a lid that opens or closes the opening of the internal space 27 in the first member 20, and is made of a belt-like plate. The second member 30 has a middle portion in the longitudinal direction at one long side thereof coupled to the upper outer corner of the first long wall portion 22 of the first member 10 via a hinge portion 40. As a result, the second member 30 can swing and open with the hinge 40 as a fulcrum.

  The hinge portion 40 is set to be extremely thin compared to the thickness of each wall portion of the first member 20 and the thickness of the second member 30, and when the second member 30 is opened as shown in FIGS. Although it has a shape extending in a straight line in a side view, when the second member 30 is closed as shown in FIGS. 3 and 7, it is bent into a U-shape that is lateral in a side view.

  Such an object holding device 10 is a molded article having a one-piece structure made of synthetic resin, for example, for cost reduction. As the synthetic resin, a thermoplastic resin can be used. For example, a polyamide resin (PA11, PA12, PA66, etc.), a polypropylene resin, a polyester resin, or the like can be preferably used. However, the material of the object holding device 10 is not limited as long as the material has a predetermined elasticity.

  Next, a structure for locking the second member 30 in the closed state in the object holding device 10 will be described. In this embodiment, a double lock structure is employed.

  Specifically, a first locking portion 50 and a first locked portion 55 are provided as a first set of locking means on the side opposite to the hinge portion of the first member 20 and the second member 30. In addition, on the hinge portion 40 side of the first member 20 and the second member 30, a second locking portion 60 and a second locked portion 65 are provided as a second set of locking means. Yes.

  In addition, the anti-hinge part side in the 1st member 20 and the 2nd member 30 is the 1st member 20 and 2nd member which oppose the edge | side in which the hinge part 40 is provided in the 1st member 20 and the 2nd member 30. 30 on the side.

  The first locking portion 50 includes a projecting piece that is formed to protrude from the inner surface of the second member 30 in the middle in the longitudinal direction on the side opposite to the hinge portion. A claw 51 that protrudes outward in the lateral direction of the second member 30 is provided on the distal end side of the first locking portion 50 formed of the protruding piece. The claw 51 has a triangular shape as viewed from the side, and a flat surface 51a parallel to the inner surface of the second member 30 and the amount of protrusion gradually from the flat surface 51a side toward the distal end side of the first locking portion 50. The taper surface 51b becomes smaller.

  The first locked portion 55 is recessed in the plate thickness direction on the inner surface of the rising portion 28a of the substantially L-shaped projecting piece 28 formed to project in the middle in the longitudinal direction of the outer surface of the second long wall portion 23 of the first member 20. It consists of a recess to be formed. The upper inner wall surface 56 among the three inner wall surfaces constituting the first locked portion 55 formed of the concave portion is a flat surface parallel to the upper end surface of the second long wall portion 23 of the first member 20. A flat surface 51 a of the claw 51 of the first locking portion 50 is hooked on the flat upper inner wall surface 56.

  The second locking portion 60 includes a projecting piece that is projected and formed in the middle of the hinge portion side in the longitudinal direction on the inner surface of the second member 30. A claw 61 that protrudes outward in the lateral direction of the second member 30 is provided on the distal end side of the second locking portion 60 made of this protruding piece. The claw 61 is convex when viewed from the side, and has a flat surface 61 a parallel to the inner surface of the second member 30.

  The second locked portion 65 is formed of a recess that is recessed in the middle in the longitudinal direction of the inner surface of the first long wall portion 22 of the first member 20. The upper inner wall surface 66 of the three inner wall surfaces constituting the second locked portion 65 made of the recess is a flat surface parallel to the upper end surface of the first long wall portion 22 of the first member 20. A flat surface 61 a of the claw 61 of the second locking portion 60 is hooked on the flat upper inner wall surface 66.

  In addition, although the nail | claw 51 of the 1st latching | locking part 50 and the nail | claw 61 of the 2nd latching | locking part 60 are made into the different shape, you may have the same shape.

  As shown in FIGS. 1 and 5, the object holding device 10 having such a configuration is assumed to have the second member 30 opened as an initial state.

  In this open state, as shown in FIGS. 2 and 6, the peripheral portion of the connector 1 of the object 1 is accommodated in the internal space 27 of the first member 20. At this time, the first and second pipes 2 and 3 of the object 1 are in a state of projecting outside from the openings 24a and 25a of the first and second short wall portions 24 and 25 of the first member 20, respectively.

  Thereafter, the second member 30 is moved so as to approach the opening of the internal space 27 of the first member 20 with the central portion of the hinge portion 40 having a shape extending straight as viewed from the side as a fulcrum, as shown in FIGS. 3 and 7. Further, the protruding pieces as the first and second locking portions 50 and 60 of the second member 30 are slightly elastically deformed in the recesses as the first and second locked portions 55 and 65 of the first member 20. Engage in a snap-fit state after passing through. As a result, the hinge portion 40 is folded at the center and bent into a lateral U shape in side view, and the flat surfaces 51a and 61a of the claws 51 and 61 are formed in the first and second locked portions 55 and 61, respectively. The upper inner wall surfaces 56 and 66 of 65 are hooked. Since this catching amount is secured, the engaging operation is performed by snap fitting as described above.

  In this way, the internal space 27 of the first member 20 is covered with the second member 30 and closed. In this closed state, the periphery of the connector 4 of the object 1 can be covered and protected from the outside, and the object 1 can be held and prevented from being turned off. In addition, the detent of the object 1 is the cross-sectional shape in the short direction of the internal space 27 surrounded by the bottom wall portion 21 of the first member 20, the first and second long wall portions 22 and 23, and the second member 30. It is performed by making it the same polygon as the cross-sectional shape of the direction orthogonal to the axial direction of 1 connector 4. The object 1 is prevented from coming off by the second short wall portion 25 of the first member 20 and the projections 22a and 23a provided on the inner surfaces of the first and second long wall portions 22 and 23. This is done by sandwiching both end faces in the direction.

  By the way, in the closed state, for example, when the object 1 is pulled, an upward load F that separates the first member 20 and the second member 30 may be generated and applied to the second member 30. Even when such a load F occurs, the second member 30 is devised so that it is difficult to open, and will be described below.

  Specifically, as shown in FIG. 7, a clearance S1 is provided between the flat surface 51a of the claw 51 of the first locking portion 50 and the flat upper inner wall surface 56 of the first locked portion 55, and A clearance S <b> 2 is provided between the flat surface 61 a of the claw 61 of the second locking portion 60 and the flat upper inner wall surface 66 of the second locked portion 65, and further, the first long wall portion 22 of the first member 20. After providing clearances S3 between the upper end surface and the inner surface of the second member 30, the relationship between these clearances S1, S2, S3 is set to S1 = S2, S1 (S2)> S3. .

  In this way, the load F is such that the flat surfaces 51a and 61a of the claws 51 and 61 of the first and second locking portions 50 and 60 are the upper inner wall surfaces of the first and second locked portions 55 and 65, respectively. Before being brought into contact with 56 and 66 and exerting force on each other, it is applied to the hinge portion 40. As a result, the hinge portion 40 first elastically deforms and extends in the direction in which the load F acts, and then plastically deforms, whereby the load F is absorbed or attenuated. That is, the hinge portion 40 generates a force substantially opposite to the load F when elastically deforming and plastically deforming, and the load F is absorbed or attenuated by this force.

  By the way, although depending on the magnitude of the load F, when the extension amount of the hinge portion 40 is relatively small and only a small amount of extension is required, the flat surfaces 51a of the claws 51, 61 of the first and second locking portions 50, 60, 61a may not contact the upper inner wall surfaces 56, 66 of the first and second locked portions 55, 65. In this case, since the claws 51 and 61 are not crushed, the second member 30 is not opened and the internal space 27 of the first member 20 is not exposed, and the state of protecting and holding the object 1 can be maintained.

  However, when the load F is excessive and the amount of extension of the hinge portion 40 is large, or when the hinge portion 40 is torn, the flat surfaces of the claws 51 and 61 of the first and second locking portions 50 and 60 51a and 61a will contact | abut to the upper inner wall surfaces 56 and 66 of the 1st, 2nd to-be-latched part 55,65. However, since the load F is absorbed or attenuated by elastic deformation or plastic deformation of the hinge portion 40, even if the flat surfaces 51a and 61a abut against the upper inner wall surfaces 56 and 66, the load acting on the abutting portions is greatly increased. Will be reduced. As a result, the claws 51 and 61 are prevented from being crushed or broken, so that the second member 30 is opened and the internal space 27 of the first member 20 is not exposed, and the object 1 is protected. , Can maintain the state to hold.

  As described above, even if the object holding device 10 receives a load F that attempts to separate the first member 20 and the second member 30, the locking means for connecting the members 20 and 30 is damaged. Can be prevented or suppressed. Therefore, the highly reliable object holding device 10 excellent in protection and holding of the object 1 can be provided.

  Hereinafter, other embodiments of the present invention will be described.

  (1) As shown in FIG. 9, round chamfers 24 b are formed at the outer corners of the opening 24 a of the first short wall portion 24. The chamfer 24b may be tapered.

  The reason for this will be described. That is, when the first pipe 2 is pulled in one radial direction, the first pipe 2 may be bent using the outer corner of the opening 24a of the first short wall portion 24 as a fulcrum. Here, if the outer corner portion of the opening 24a of the first short wall portion 24 is angular, the first pipe 2 is bent at an acute angle at one point, and the bending fulcrum becomes one point. Bending stress is concentrated and it tends to break.

  However, if the chamfer 24b is provided as described above, when the first pipe 2 is pulled in the direction orthogonal to the axial direction as shown by the arrow in FIG. 10 and bent as shown by the phantom line in FIG. Since the bent portion is gently curved along the chamfer 24b, local concentration of bending stress is avoided. Thereby, since the damage of the 1st pipe 2 can be prevented or suppressed, reliability improves.

  This protects the first pipe 2 not only when the first pipe 2 is flexible such as a rubber material, but also when the first pipe 2 is slightly bent such as resin or metal. This is advantageous. Similarly to this, although not shown, a round chamfer or a tapered chamfer may be formed at the outer corner of the opening 25a of the second short wall 25.

  Further, as shown in FIG. 11, a raised portion 29 is provided on the outer surface of the first short wall portion 24 so as to rise along the edge of the opening 24 a, and a round chamfer 29 a (or taper) is provided at the inner corner of the raised portion 29. A chamfer) may be provided.

  In the case where such a raised portion 29 is provided, the area receiving the outer peripheral surface of the first pipe 2 in the opening 24a becomes as large as possible, so that when the first pipe 2 is pulled in a direction orthogonal to the axial direction Moreover, it becomes possible to suppress the bending angle of the first pipe 2 to be small, which is effective in preventing the first pipe 2 from being damaged. However, those in which the chamfer 29a is not provided in the raised portion 29 are also included in the present invention.

  (2) In the above embodiment, the first and second locking portions 50 and 60 and the first and second locked portions 55 and 65 are provided one by one in the middle in the longitudinal direction of the object holding device 10. The size and number are not particularly limited.

  (3) Although the double lock structure is used in the above embodiment, a single lock structure may be used. For example, the structure which eliminated the 1st latching | locking part 50 and the 1st to-be-latched part 55 as a 1st set of locking means, or the 2nd latching | locking part 60 and a 2nd to-be-latched as a 2nd set of locking means Any structure without the portion 65 may be used.

  (4) Contrary to the above-described embodiment, the first and second engaging portions 50 and 60 made of projecting pieces are provided on the first member 20 side, and the first and second made of concave portions on the second member 30 side. The locked portions 55 and 65 may be provided.

  (5) In the above embodiment, the first member 20 has a bottomed rectangular tube shape, and the second member 30 has a flat lid shape, but the shape thereof is not particularly limited. For example, the second member 30 may have a bottomed rectangular tube shape. Alternatively, the first member 20 may have a concave shape when viewed from the end surface without the first and second short wall portions 24 and 25.

  (6) In the above embodiment, the relationship between the three clearances S1, S2, and S3 may be set to S1 = S2 = S3.

  In this case, when the object holding device 10 receives a load F that causes the first member 20 and the second member 30 to be separated from each other, the load F is applied to the hinge portion 40 and at the same time, the first and second The flat surfaces 51 a and 61 a of the claws 51 and 61 of the locking portions 50 and 60 come into contact with the flat upper outer wall surfaces 56 and 66 of the first and second locked portions 55 and 65.

  In such a situation, the load F is absorbed and attenuated by elastic deformation of the hinge portion 40 and the contact portion. However, since the load F acts on both the hinge portion 40 and the contact portion almost simultaneously, the effective area for receiving the load F is large, and the load burden per unit area can be small. Therefore, it is prevented or suppressed that the claws 51 and 61 are crushed or broken.

  (7) FIG. 12 to FIG. 14 show another embodiment of the present invention. In this embodiment, the difference from the above embodiment is the configuration of the hinge portion.

  That is, the cylindrical part 41 is provided in the longitudinal direction intermediate part of the side on the connection side of the first member 20 with the second member 30, and the connection side of the second member 30 on the connection side with the first member 20 is provided. Cylindrical portions 42 and 43 are provided at both ends in the longitudinal direction of the side. A single support shaft 44 is inserted into the center hole of each of the cylindrical portions 41 to 43, and the first member 20 and the second member are connected so as to be swingable about the support shaft 44 as a fulcrum. Thus, the hinge part is comprised using the spindle 44. FIG.

  The inner diameter of the central hole in the cylindrical portion 41 of the first member 20 is set slightly smaller than the outer diameter of the support shaft 44, and the inner diameter of the central hole in the cylindrical portions 42 and 43 of the second member 30 is The outer diameter of the support shaft 44 is set larger. As a result, the support shaft 44 is fitted into the cylindrical portion 41 of the first member 20 in a fixed state by press-fitting or the like, and is fitted into the cylindrical portions 42 and 43 of the second member 30 with a predetermined backlash. Has been. That is, for example, as shown in FIG. 13, in a state where the second member 30 is closed so that the opening of the first member 20 is closed by the second member 30, the support shaft 44 has the cylindrical portions 42 and 43 of the second member 30. The clearances S3 exist in the upper half and the lower half between the opposed radial directions of the center hole.

In addition, each clearance S3 is set to the substantially same dimension as clearance S3 shown in FIG. 7 in the said embodiment. That is, the relationship between the clearances S1, S2, and S3 is set to S1 = S2, S1 (S2)> S3, as in the above embodiment.

  In this way, as described in the above embodiment, the load F is generated in the first and second directions in accordance with the generation of the load F that attempts to separate the first member 20 and the second member 30 from each other. Before the flat surfaces 51a and 61a of the claws 51 and 61 of the locking portions 50 and 60 abut against the upper inner wall surfaces 56 and 66 of the first and second locked portions 55 and 65 and exert force on each other, It is given to the cylindrical portions 42 and 43 and the support shaft 44 of the two members 30. As a result, the cylindrical portions 42 and 43 of the second member 30 are first elastically deformed and extended in the acting direction of the load F, and then plastically deform, whereby the load F is absorbed or attenuated.

  In this embodiment, first, the support shaft 44 is fitted into the cylindrical portions 42 and 43 of the second member 30 in a fixed state by press-fitting or the like, and a predetermined backlash is applied to the cylindrical portion 41 of the first member 20. You may insert it in the state you have. Further, each clearance S3 can be set to S1 = S2 = S3 as in the case (6).
