ところで、両コネクタの嵌合時には、ガイド突起の外側面とガイド溝の内側面とが摺り合うとともに、両者を含めた雌ハウジングの外側面とフード部の内側面とが全面的に摺り合うような構造をとっているから、嵌合抵抗が大きくなって作業負担になる懸念があった。
本発明は上記のような事情に基づいて完成されたものであって、嵌合抵抗を低くすることを目的とする。 By the way, when the two connectors are fitted, the outer surface of the guide projection and the inner surface of the guide groove slide with each other, and the outer surface of the female housing including both slides with the inner surface of the hood part. Since the structure is adopted, there is a concern that the fitting resistance is increased and the work load is increased.
The present invention has been completed based on the above circumstances, and an object thereof is to reduce the fitting resistance.

上記の目的を達成するための手段として、請求項１の発明は、第１のコネクタには筒状のフード部が備えられ、前記フード部内には第２のコネクタのハウジングが嵌合可能とされ、前記ハウジングの外側面と前記フード部の内側面のいずれか一方に、両コネクタの嵌合方向に沿って延びる凹部が設けられ、他方に、前記凹部と嵌合可能な凸部が設けられ、これら凹部と凸部とが前記ハウジングの高さ方向の両端または幅方向の両端に少なくとも一対配置されているコネクタにおいて、前記両コネクタの嵌合途中では、前記凹部の内側面と前記凸部の外側面とが互いに摺り合う一方で、両者を除いた前記フード部の内側面と前記ハウジングの外側面とが互いに非接触とされることを、構成としたところに特徴を有する。   As a means for achieving the above object, according to the first aspect of the present invention, the first connector is provided with a cylindrical hood portion, and the housing of the second connector can be fitted into the hood portion. In either one of the outer side surface of the housing and the inner side surface of the hood portion, a recess extending along the fitting direction of both connectors is provided, and on the other side, a convex portion that can be fitted to the recess is provided, In the connector in which the concave portion and the convex portion are arranged at least as a pair at both ends in the height direction of the housing or both ends in the width direction, the inner side surface of the concave portion and the outside of the convex portion are in the middle of fitting the two connectors. While the side surfaces slide on each other, the inner side surface of the hood part excluding both sides and the outer side surface of the housing are not in contact with each other.

請求項２の発明は、請求項１に記載のものにおいて、前記凸部の外側面と前記凹部の内側面とが幅方向及び高さ方向に遊動規制された状態で摺り合うことにより、前記ハウジングのがた止めがなされるところに特徴を有する。   According to a second aspect of the present invention, the housing according to the first aspect is configured such that the outer surface of the convex portion and the inner side surface of the concave portion are slid in a state in which loose movement is regulated in the width direction and the height direction. It is characterized in that it can be stopped.

請求項３の発明は、請求項２に記載のものにおいて、前記凸部の外側面と前記凹部の内側面のうちのいずれか一方が前記両コネクタの嵌合方向と直交する方向に傾斜するテーパ面とされ、このテーパ面が他方と線接触状に摺り合うところに特徴を有する。
請求項４の発明は、請求項２または請求項３に記載のものにおいて、前記凹部は前記凸部に対する嵌合初期位置から嵌合終端位置にかけて徐々に幅狭に形成され、前記凸部は前記凹部に対して前記嵌合終端位置でのみ圧入されるところに特徴を有する。 A third aspect of the present invention is the taper according to the second aspect, wherein either one of the outer side surface of the convex portion and the inner side surface of the concave portion is inclined in a direction perpendicular to the fitting direction of the two connectors. The taper surface is characterized in that it slides in line contact with the other.
According to a fourth aspect of the present invention, in the first or second aspect of the present invention, the concave portion is formed to be gradually narrower from a fitting initial position to a fitting end position with respect to the convex portion, and the convex portion is It is characterized in that it is press-fitted into the recess only at the fitting end position.

＜請求項１の発明＞
第１及び第２の両コネクタの嵌合途中では、凹部の内側面と凸部の外側面とが互いに摺り合う一方で、両者を除いたフード部の内側面とハウジングの外側面とが互いに非接触とされるから、嵌合抵抗を低く抑えることができる。 <Invention of Claim 1>
During the fitting of both the first and second connectors, the inner surface of the recess and the outer surface of the protrusion slide against each other, while the inner surface of the hood portion and the outer surface of the housing excluding the two are not in contact with each other. Since the contact is made, the fitting resistance can be kept low.

＜請求項２の発明＞
凸部の外側面と凹部の内側面が遊動規制された状態で摺り合うことでハウジングのがた止めがなされるから、両コネクタの嵌合動作が安定化する。 <Invention of Claim 2>
Since the housing is rattled by sliding the outer side surface of the convex part and the inner side surface of the concave part in a state where the free movement is restricted, the fitting operation of both connectors is stabilized.

＜請求項３の発明＞
凸部の外側面と凹部の内側面のうちのいずれか一方がハウジングの嵌合方向と直交する方向に傾斜するテーパ面とされ、このテーパ面が他方と線接触状に摺り合うから、嵌合抵抗をより一層低くすることができる。
＜請求項４の発明＞
凹部は凸部に対する嵌合初期位置から嵌合終端位置に向けて徐々に幅狭に形成され、凸部は凹部に対して嵌合終端位置でのみ圧入されるから、嵌合動作の終盤に至るまでは両コネクタの嵌合抵抗を小さく抑えたままにすることができる。 <Invention of Claim 3>
Either one of the outer surface of the convex portion and the inner surface of the concave portion is a tapered surface inclined in a direction perpendicular to the fitting direction of the housing, and this tapered surface slides in line contact with the other. The resistance can be further reduced.
<Invention of Claim 4>
Since the concave portion is gradually narrowed from the initial fitting position to the convex end position with respect to the convex portion, and the convex portion is press-fitted only at the final mating position with respect to the concave portion, it reaches the final stage of the fitting operation. Until this time, the fitting resistance of both connectors can be kept small.

＜実施形態１＞
本発明の実施形態１を図１によって説明する。本実施形態のコネクタは、互いに嵌合可能な雌雄の両コネクタＦ，Ｍによって構成され、雄コネクタＭはフード部１を、雌コネクタＦはハウジング２を、それぞれ備えている。なお、以下の説明において前後方向については、互いの嵌合面側を前方とする。 <Embodiment 1>
Embodiment 1 of the present invention will be described with reference to FIG. The connector of this embodiment is composed of male and female connectors F and M that can be fitted to each other. The male connector M includes a hood portion 1, and the female connector F includes a housing 2. In the following description, in the front-rear direction, the mating surface side is the front.

まず、雌コネクタＦのハウジング２について説明する。ハウジング２は、合成樹脂材により形成され、その内部には雌端子金具４を収容可能なキャビティ３が前後方向に貫通して形成されている。各キャビティ３内には雌端子金具４が挿入可能とされ、雌端子金具４は、相手の雄タブ７が挿入接続される角筒形の本体部５と、その後側に設けられ、電線８の端末に圧着されるバレル部６とから構成される（実施形態３を説明するための図面である図３を参照）。雌端子金具４は、後方からキャビティ３内に挿入され、キャビティ３内に設けられたランス（図示せず）により抜け止め状態で係止される。   First, the housing 2 of the female connector F will be described. The housing 2 is formed of a synthetic resin material, and a cavity 3 that can accommodate the female terminal fitting 4 is formed through the housing 2 in the front-rear direction. A female terminal fitting 4 can be inserted into each cavity 3, and the female terminal fitting 4 is provided on the rear side of a rectangular tube-shaped main body portion 5 into which a mating male tab 7 is inserted and connected. It is comprised from the barrel part 6 crimped | bonded to a terminal (refer FIG. 3 which is drawing for demonstrating Embodiment 3). The female terminal fitting 4 is inserted into the cavity 3 from the rear, and is locked in a retaining state by a lance (not shown) provided in the cavity 3.

ハウジング２の外側面における幅方向両側面９には左右一対の凸部１０が設けられている。両凸部１０は、互いに同形同大でハウジング２の前後方向に沿ったリブ状をなし、ハウジング２の幅方向両側面９の高さ方向中央部にて互いに同じ高さ位置に配置されている。また、両凸部１０の前端位置とハウジング２の前面位置とは互いに揃えられている。詳しくは、凸部１０は、断面長方形状で前後方向に延出して形成され、その突出方向に沿って一対の水平面１０Ａを有するとともに、その突出端面に略鉛直に切り立つ垂直面１０Ｂを有して構成される。この凸部１０は、後述するように、雄コネクタＭ側の凹部２０に嵌合可能となっている。   A pair of left and right convex portions 10 are provided on both side surfaces 9 in the width direction on the outer surface of the housing 2. The two convex portions 10 have the same shape and the same size and have a rib shape along the front-rear direction of the housing 2, and are arranged at the same height position at the center in the height direction of both side surfaces 9 in the width direction of the housing 2. Yes. Further, the front end position of both convex portions 10 and the front surface position of the housing 2 are aligned with each other. In detail, the convex part 10 has a rectangular cross section and is formed to extend in the front-rear direction. The convex part 10 has a pair of horizontal planes 10A along the projecting direction, and a vertical surface 10B that stands substantially vertically on the projecting end surface. Composed. As will be described later, the convex portion 10 can be fitted into the concave portion 20 on the male connector M side.

続いて雄コネクタＭについて説明する。雄コネクタＭは、同じく合成樹脂材により形成され、雄タブ７の後端部を収容可能な端子収容部１２とその前方に一回り大きく形成された角筒状のフード部１とを備えている（実施形態３を説明するための図面である図３を参照）。フード部１は、横長方形状に開口して形成され、雌コネクタＦ側のハウジング２が内嵌可能とされる。両コネクタＦ，Ｍの嵌合途中及び嵌合後においては、フード部１の内側面とハウジング２の外側面との間に、後述する凹凸嵌合領域３０を除いて一定間隔があけられ、もって両面が当たり合わないように設定されている。   Next, the male connector M will be described. The male connector M is also made of a synthetic resin material, and includes a terminal accommodating portion 12 that can accommodate the rear end portion of the male tab 7 and a rectangular tube-shaped hood portion 1 that is formed slightly larger in front of the terminal accommodating portion 12. (Refer FIG. 3 which is drawing for demonstrating Embodiment 3). The hood portion 1 is formed by opening in a horizontal rectangular shape, and the housing 2 on the female connector F side can be fitted therein. During and after the fitting of both connectors F and M, a constant interval is provided between the inner side surface of the hood portion 1 and the outer side surface of the housing 2 except for a concave / convex fitting region 30 described later. It is set so that both sides do not hit.

そして、フード部１の内側面における幅方向両側面１３には一対の凹部２０が設けられている。両凹部２０は、両凸部１０と対応する位置に、互いに同形同大で前後方向に沿って延出して形成され、フード部１の幅方向両側面１３の前面に開口しここから凸部１０を受け入れ可能となっている。   A pair of recesses 20 are provided on both side surfaces 13 in the width direction on the inner side surface of the hood portion 1. Both concave portions 20 are formed in the same position and in the same size and extending along the front-rear direction at positions corresponding to the both convex portions 10, and open to the front surfaces of both side surfaces 13 in the width direction of the hood portion 1. 10 can be accepted.

凹部２０内は、底面２０Ａとその両端に連なる一対のテーパ面２０Ｂとからなり、全体として台形状をなす。両テーパ面２０Ｂは、長さ方向の全長に亘ってほぼ同じ傾斜角をもって構成され、かつ、底面２０Ａの両端からフード部１の内方へ向けて徐々に互いの離間距離を広げる形態とされる。両コネクタＦ，Ｍの嵌合に伴い、凸部１０が凹部２０内に挿入されると、凸部１０の両端角部１０Ｅが凹部２０の両テーパ面２０Ｂに線接触状に摺り合うようになっている。   The inside of the recess 20 is composed of a bottom surface 20A and a pair of tapered surfaces 20B connected to both ends thereof, and has a trapezoidal shape as a whole. Both the tapered surfaces 20B are configured with substantially the same inclination angle over the entire length in the length direction, and are configured to gradually widen the mutual separation distance from both ends of the bottom surface 20A toward the inside of the hood portion 1. . When the convex portion 10 is inserted into the concave portion 20 along with the fitting of the connectors F and M, the both end corner portions 10E of the convex portion 10 slide in line contact with both the tapered surfaces 20B of the concave portion 20. ing.

次に、本実施形態の作用効果を説明する。まず、凹部２０の開口に凸部１０の前端を適合させつつフード部１内にハウジング２を進入させる。すると、凹部２０と凸部１０とによる嵌合動作が開始され（本発明の嵌合初期位置に相当）、フード部１とハウジング２との間に凹凸嵌合領域３０が形成される。さらにフード部１内にハウジング２を深く進入させると、凸部１０の両端角部１０Ｅと凹部２０の両テーパ面２０Ｂとが線接触状に摺り合いながらその嵌合動作が進行する。この間、凹凸嵌合領域３０を除いたフード部１の内側面とハウジング２の外側面とは互いに接触することはない。   Next, the effect of this embodiment is demonstrated. First, the housing 2 is caused to enter the hood portion 1 while the front end of the convex portion 10 is adapted to the opening of the concave portion 20. Then, the fitting operation by the concave portion 20 and the convex portion 10 is started (corresponding to the fitting initial position of the present invention), and the concave / convex fitting region 30 is formed between the hood portion 1 and the housing 2. When the housing 2 is further moved deeply into the hood portion 1, the fitting operation proceeds while the both end corner portions 10E of the convex portion 10 and the tapered surfaces 20B of the concave portion 20 slide in line contact. During this time, the inner side surface of the hood portion 1 and the outer side surface of the housing 2 excluding the uneven fitting region 30 do not contact each other.

その後、フード部１の奥面にハウジング２が突き当たると（本発明の嵌合終端位置に相当）、雌雄の両端子金具が正規深さで嵌合される。この状態では、凸部１０の両端角部１０Ｅと凹部２０の両テーパ面２０Ｂとが線接触状に当たり合った状態を維持するとともに、凹凸嵌合領域３０を除いたフード部１の内側面とハウジング２の外側面も互いに非接触状態を維持する。   Thereafter, when the housing 2 abuts against the back surface of the hood portion 1 (corresponding to the fitting end position of the present invention), both male and female terminal fittings are fitted at a normal depth. In this state, the both end corners 10E of the convex part 10 and the both tapered surfaces 20B of the concave part 20 are in contact with each other in line contact, and the inner side surface of the hood part 1 and the housing excluding the concave / convex fitting region 30 The two outer surfaces also maintain non-contact with each other.

このように本実施形態によれば、両コネクタＦ，Ｍの嵌合途中で、凹部２０のテーパ面２０Ｂと凸部１０の両端角部１０Ｅとが互いに摺り合う一方で、両者を除いたフード部１の内側面とハウジング２の外側面とが互いに非接触とされるから、両コネクタＦ，Ｍの嵌合抵抗を低く抑えることができる。しかも、凹部２０のテーパ面２０Ｂと凸部１０の両端角部１０Ｅとが線接触状に摺り合うから、嵌合抵抗をより一層低く抑えることができる。   Thus, according to the present embodiment, while the connectors F and M are being fitted together, the tapered surface 20B of the concave portion 20 and the both end corner portions 10E of the convex portion 10 slide on each other, but the hood portion excluding both of them. Since the inner surface of 1 and the outer surface of the housing 2 are not in contact with each other, the fitting resistance of the connectors F and M can be kept low. Moreover, since the tapered surface 20B of the concave portion 20 and the both end corner portions 10E of the convex portion 10 slide in line contact, the fitting resistance can be further reduced.

また、両コネクタＦ，Ｍの嵌合途中では凹部２０のテーパ面２０Ｂと凸部１０の両端角部１０Ｅとが高さ方向及び幅方向に遊動規制された状態で接触しており、したがってフード部１内におけるハウジング２の遊動が規制されてがた止めがなされるから、両コネクタＦ，Ｍの嵌合動作が安定化する。   Further, during the fitting of both connectors F and M, the tapered surface 20B of the concave portion 20 and the both end corner portions 10E of the convex portion 10 are in contact with each other in a state where the free movement is restricted in the height direction and the width direction. Since the loosening of the housing 2 within the housing 1 is restricted, the fitting operation of the connectors F and M is stabilized.

＜実施形態２＞
次に、本発明の実施形態２を図２によって説明する。実施形態２では、ハウジング２に設けられた凸部１０の形状、及び雄コネクタＭのフード部１に設けられた凹部２０の形状が実施形態１とは異なる。その他は、実施形態と概ね同様であり、上記実施形態１と同様の構成部位については、同一符号を付して重複する記載は省略する。 <Embodiment 2>
Next, Embodiment 2 of the present invention will be described with reference to FIG. In the second embodiment, the shape of the convex portion 10 provided in the housing 2 and the shape of the concave portion 20 provided in the hood portion 1 of the male connector M are different from those in the first embodiment. Others are generally the same as those of the embodiment, and the same components as those of the first embodiment are denoted by the same reference numerals and redundant description is omitted.

ハウジング２側に設けられた凸部１０は、断面台形状をなして前後方向に延出して形成され、略鉛直に切り立つ垂直面１０Ｂとその両端に連なる一対のテーパ面１０Ｆとを備えている。両テーパ面１０Ｆは、ハウジング２の幅方向両側面９から突出端面にかけて徐々に互いの離間距離を狭める形態とされる。   The convex portion 10 provided on the housing 2 side is formed to have a trapezoidal cross section and extend in the front-rear direction, and includes a vertical surface 10B that cuts substantially vertically and a pair of tapered surfaces 10F that are continuous to both ends thereof. Both the taper surfaces 10F are configured to gradually narrow the distance between them from the side surface 9 in the width direction of the housing 2 to the protruding end surface.

一方、フード部１側に設けられた凹部２０は、断面長方形状をなして前後方向に延出して形成されている。凹部２０内は、略鉛直に切り立つ垂直面２０Ａとその両端から水平に延出する一対の水平面２０Ｅとによって構成される。   On the other hand, the concave portion 20 provided on the hood portion 1 side has a rectangular cross section and is formed to extend in the front-rear direction. The inside of the recess 20 is constituted by a vertical surface 20A that cuts substantially vertically and a pair of horizontal surfaces 20E that extend horizontally from both ends thereof.

凹部２０内に凸部１０が嵌入すると、凹部２０の開口縁部２０Ｆに凸部１０のテーパ面１０Ｆが線接触状に当たり合うようになっている。
実施形態２と実施形態１とは、テーパ面２０Ｂの形成位置が凸部１０側にあるか凹部２０側にあるかの違いでしかなく、作用効果はほぼ同じである。 When the convex portion 10 is fitted into the concave portion 20, the tapered surface 10F of the convex portion 10 comes into contact with the opening edge portion 20F of the concave portion 20 in a line contact manner.
The second embodiment and the first embodiment are only different in whether the formation position of the tapered surface 20B is on the convex portion 10 side or the concave portion 20 side, and the operational effects are substantially the same.

＜実施形態３＞
図３は、本発明の実施形態３を示す。実施形態３では、凸部１０及び凹部２０のそれぞれの形状が実施形態１および実施形態２とは若干異なっている。
すなわち、ハウジング２側に設けられた凸部１０は、前後方向に延出して形成されるとともに前端から後端にかけて少しずつ幅広に形成されている。
一方、フード部１側に設けられた凹部２０は、同じく前後方向に延出して形成されるとともに前端から後端にかけて少しずつ幅狭に形成されている。そして、両コネクタＦ，Ｍの嵌合動作が終了する嵌合終端位置に至って初めて凹部２０内に凸部１０が圧入されるようになっている。したがって、両コネクタＦ，Ｍの嵌合動作の終盤に至るまでは、嵌合抵抗を小さく抑えたままにすることができる。 <Embodiment 3>
FIG. 3 shows Embodiment 3 of the present invention. In the third embodiment, the shapes of the convex portion 10 and the concave portion 20 are slightly different from those in the first and second embodiments.
That is, the convex portion 10 provided on the housing 2 side is formed so as to extend in the front-rear direction, and is formed gradually wider from the front end to the rear end.
On the other hand, the concave portion 20 provided on the hood portion 1 side is formed so as to extend in the front-rear direction and is formed to be narrower from the front end to the rear end. The convex portion 10 is press-fitted into the concave portion 20 only after reaching the mating end position where the mating operation of both the connectors F and M is completed. Therefore, the fitting resistance can be kept small until the end of the fitting operation of both the connectors F and M.
