Description

本発明は、嵌合検知コネクタに関するものである。   The present invention relates to a fitting detection connector.

従来、各種の装置に使用されるコネクタとしては、装置の点検、組立等の際に誤作動が発生しないようにするために、相手側コネクタとの嵌（かん）合が完了したことを検知する検知スイッチを備えた嵌合検知コネクタが使用されている（例えば、特許文献１参照。）。   Conventionally, as a connector used in various devices, it is detected that the mating with the mating connector has been completed in order to prevent malfunction during device inspection and assembly. A fitting detection connector provided with a detection switch is used (for example, see Patent Document 1).

図９は従来の嵌合検知コネクタを示す断面図である。   FIG. 9 is a cross-sectional view showing a conventional fitting detection connector.

図において、９０１はプラグコネクタであり、ハウジング９１１及び端子９６１を有し、該端子９６１にケーブル９９１の終端が接続されている。また、８０１はレセプタクルコネクタであり、ハウジング８１１及び端子８６１を有し、図示されない基板に実装されている。なお、８３１は前記端子８６１を支持する支持部材である。プラグコネクタ９０１がレセプタクルコネクタ８０１と嵌合することによって端子９６１と端子８６１とが接触し、これにより、ケーブル９９１が基板の導電トレースと導通する。   In the figure, reference numeral 901 denotes a plug connector, which has a housing 911 and a terminal 961, and a terminal end of a cable 991 is connected to the terminal 961. Reference numeral 801 denotes a receptacle connector, which has a housing 811 and a terminal 861, and is mounted on a substrate (not shown). Reference numeral 831 denotes a support member that supports the terminal 861. When the plug connector 901 is engaged with the receptacle connector 801, the terminal 961 and the terminal 861 come into contact with each other, whereby the cable 991 is electrically connected to the conductive trace of the substrate.

そして、プラグコネクタ９０１は、導電性金属で一体的に形成された可撓（とう）ロック腕９５１を有する。該可撓ロック腕９５１は、基部がハウジング９１１の上面に固定されるとともに、中間に形成された係合孔（こう）９５２と、自由端に形成されたロック解除用押圧部９５３と、前記係合孔９５２の近傍において幅方向（図面に垂直な方向）に相互に離間して配設された一対の短絡用接触部９５４とを備える。   The plug connector 901 has a flexible lock arm 951 integrally formed of a conductive metal. The flexible lock arm 951 has a base portion fixed to the upper surface of the housing 911, an engagement hole 952 formed in the middle, a lock release pressing portion 953 formed at a free end, and the engagement member. In the vicinity of the joint hole 952, a pair of short-circuit contact portions 954 that are spaced apart from each other in the width direction (direction perpendicular to the drawing) is provided.

また、レセプタクルコネクタ８０１は、ハウジング８１１の上壁の前端に形成されたロック用突起８１５と、幅方向（図面に垂直な方向）に相互に離間して配設された一対の嵌合検知用電極８５１とを備える。前記ロック用突起８１５の下端にはテーパ状の係合案内面が形成され、前記嵌合検知用電極８５１は基板の導電トレースを介して嵌合検知装置に接続されている。   In addition, the receptacle connector 801 includes a pair of fitting detection electrodes 815 disposed at a distance from each other in the width direction (direction perpendicular to the drawing) and a locking protrusion 815 formed on the front end of the upper wall of the housing 811. 851. A tapered engagement guide surface is formed at the lower end of the locking projection 815, and the fitting detection electrode 851 is connected to a fitting detection device via a conductive trace of the substrate.

そして、ハウジング９１１がハウジング８１１内に挿入され、プラグコネクタ９０１とレセプタクルコネクタ８０１との嵌合が完了すると、可撓ロック腕９５１の係合孔９５２にハウジング８１１のロック用突起８１５が入込んで可撓ロック腕９５１がロックされ、プラグコネクタ９０１とレセプタクルコネクタ８０１との嵌合の解除が防止される。また、可撓ロック腕９５１がそれ自体のばね性によって上昇し、短絡用接触部９５４の各々が対応する嵌合検知用電極８５１と接触する。これにより、一対の嵌合検知用電極８５１が可撓ロック腕９５１を介して互いに導通し、プラグコネクタ９０１とレセプタクルコネクタ８０１との嵌合が完了したことが、嵌合検知用電極８５１に接続された嵌合検知装置によって検知される。   When the housing 911 is inserted into the housing 811 and the fitting between the plug connector 901 and the receptacle connector 801 is completed, the locking protrusion 815 of the housing 811 can be inserted into the engagement hole 952 of the flexible lock arm 951. The flexible lock arm 951 is locked, and the release of the fitting between the plug connector 901 and the receptacle connector 801 is prevented. Further, the flexible lock arm 951 is raised by its own spring property, and each of the short-circuit contact portions 954 comes into contact with the corresponding fitting detection electrode 851. Thereby, the pair of fitting detection electrodes 851 are electrically connected to each other via the flexible lock arm 951, and the fact that the fitting between the plug connector 901 and the receptacle connector 801 is completed is connected to the fitting detection electrode 851. Detected by a fitting detection device.

また、ハウジング９１１がハウジング８１１内に挿入されても、プラグコネクタ９０１とレセプタクルコネクタ８０１との嵌合が完了せず、可撓ロック腕９５１の係合孔９５２にハウジング８１１のロック用突起８１５が入込んでおらず、可撓ロック腕９５１がロックされていないときには、可撓ロック腕９５１がロック用突起８１５によって押下げられているので、短絡用接触部９５４と嵌合検知用電極８５１とが非接触の状態にある。そのため、一対の嵌合検知用電極８５１が互いに非導通の状態にあり、プラグコネクタ９０１とレセプタクルコネクタ８０１との嵌合が完了していないことが、嵌合検知装置によって検知される。
特開平９−１０６８５８号公報 Further, even when the housing 911 is inserted into the housing 811, the fitting between the plug connector 901 and the receptacle connector 801 is not completed, and the locking protrusion 815 of the housing 811 enters the engaging hole 952 of the flexible lock arm 951. When the flexible lock arm 951 is not locked, the flexible lock arm 951 is pushed down by the lock projection 815, so that the short-circuit contact portion 954 and the fitting detection electrode 851 are not connected. In contact. Therefore, the fitting detection device detects that the pair of fitting detection electrodes 851 are in a non-conductive state and the fitting between the plug connector 901 and the receptacle connector 801 is not completed.

また、前記相手方ハウジング１１１は、被挿入部１１３及びフランジ部１１４を貫通し、相手方ハウジング１１１が挿入開口１３に挿入され、かつ、該挿入開口１３から抜出される方向、すなわち、挿抜方向に延在する複数の端子収容孔１１６を備える。該端子収容孔１１６の各々には、相手方端子が１つずつ収容され、また、該相手方端子に接続された電線１９１の終端部分が１本ずつ収容される。そして、基板用コネクタ１と電線用コネクタ１０１とが嵌合された状態においては、被挿入部１１３における基板用コネクタ１に対向する対向面に開口する端子収容孔１１６に端子６１の接触部６４が進入して相手方端子と接触して接続される。そのため、端子収容孔１１６は、端子６１と同様の数が、同様のピッチで、同様に配列され、図に示される例においては、１０本の細長い端子収容孔１１６が所定のピッチで１列となるように配列されている。   The counterpart housing 111 passes through the inserted portion 113 and the flange portion 114, and extends in the direction in which the counterpart housing 111 is inserted into and removed from the insertion opening 13, that is, in the insertion / extraction direction. A plurality of terminal receiving holes 116 are provided. Each of the terminal receiving holes 116 accommodates one counterpart terminal, and each terminal portion of the electric wire 191 connected to the counterpart terminal. When the board connector 1 and the wire connector 101 are fitted, the contact portion 64 of the terminal 61 is inserted into the terminal receiving hole 116 that opens on the opposite surface of the inserted portion 113 that faces the board connector 1. Enter and contact the other terminal to be connected. Therefore, the terminal receiving holes 116 are arranged in the same manner with the same number as the terminals 61 at the same pitch, and in the example shown in the figure, ten elongated terminal receiving holes 116 are arranged in a row at a predetermined pitch. It is arranged to be.

前記被挿入部１１３の幅方向両側壁１１３ｃにおける前記対向面１１３ａ寄りの部位には、外側に向けて突出するガイド突起１２１が形成されている。該ガイド突起１２１は挿入開口１３のガイド溝２１に挿入される。また、前記被挿入部１１３の第２ロック部形成面としての上面１１３ｂには、上方に突出する一対の係合凸部１１５が左右に分離して形成されている。該係合凸部１１５は、基板用コネクタ１と電線用コネクタ１０１とが嵌合された状態において、基板用コネクタ１を基板へ固定するネイル８１に設けられた腕部８４と係合する凸部であり、第２ロック部として機能する。そして、前記係合凸部１１５は、被挿入部１１３の側壁１１３ｃに近接した部位に形成されることが望ましく、図に示される例においては、左右両端から１番目及び２番目の端子６１の中間に該当する部位に形成されている。また、前記係合凸部１１５は、三角形の側面形状を備え、前記対向面１１３ａ寄りの部分の上面が挿抜方向に対して緩やかに傾斜したテーパ面１１５ａとなっていて、前記フランジ部１１４寄りの部分の上面が挿抜方向に対して急に傾斜した又は垂直の係止面１１５ｂとなっている。   Guide protrusions 121 projecting outward are formed at portions of the both side walls 113c in the width direction of the insertion portion 113 that are close to the facing surface 113a. The guide protrusion 121 is inserted into the guide groove 21 of the insertion opening 13. Further, a pair of engaging convex portions 115 projecting upward are formed separately on the left and right sides on the upper surface 113b as the second lock portion forming surface of the inserted portion 113. The engagement convex portion 115 is a convex portion that engages with an arm portion 84 provided on a nail 81 that fixes the board connector 1 to the board in a state where the board connector 1 and the wire connector 101 are fitted. And functions as a second lock portion. The engaging convex portion 115 is preferably formed in a portion close to the side wall 113c of the inserted portion 113. In the example shown in the figure, the middle between the first and second terminals 61 from the left and right ends. It is formed in the part corresponding to. The engaging convex portion 115 has a triangular side surface shape, and the upper surface of the portion near the facing surface 113a is a tapered surface 115a that is gently inclined with respect to the insertion / extraction direction. The upper surface of the portion is a locking surface 115b that is steeply inclined or perpendicular to the insertion / extraction direction.

そして、前記被挿入部１１３の上面１１３ｂには、左右に分離した係合凸部１１５を連結するように形成された短絡用部材としての導電帯１５１が配設されている。該導電帯１５１は、金属等の良導電性材料から成る細長い帯状の部材であり、被挿入部１１３の幅方向に延在し、両端部が前記係合凸部１１５のフランジ部１１４寄りの側に隣接し、基板用コネクタ１と電線用コネクタ１０１とが嵌合された状態においてネイル８１の電極部８４ａと接触するように配設されている。   A conductive band 151 as a short-circuit member is provided on the upper surface 113b of the inserted portion 113 so as to connect the engaging convex portions 115 separated to the left and right. The conductive band 151 is an elongated band-shaped member made of a highly conductive material such as a metal, and extends in the width direction of the insertion portion 113, and both end portions thereof are closer to the flange portion 114 of the engaging convex portion 115. The board connector 1 and the wire connector 101 are disposed so as to be in contact with the electrode portion 84a of the nail 81.

基板用コネクタ１と電線用コネクタ１０１とは、腕部８４の係合凹部１５側の端縁８４ｂが、係合凸部１１５と上面１１３ｂの境界である根本部１１５ｃと係合する位置でその嵌合が完了する。導電帯１５１が係合凸部１１５に隣接して引抜き方向側の上面１１３ｂに配設され、電極部８４ａも端縁８４ｂより引抜き方向側に配設されているため、電極部８４ａは、端縁８４ｂと根本部１１５ｃが係合したとき、すなわち両コネクタの嵌合が完了したとき、導電帯１５１と接することができるようになる。このとき、導電帯１５１は、後述の図８（ｂ）に示されるように必ずしも根本部１１５ｃに接している必要はなく、端縁８４ｂが根本部１１５ｃと係合したとき電極部８４ａと接する位置にあればよい。   The board connector 1 and the wire connector 101 are fitted at a position where the end edge 84b of the arm portion 84 on the engagement concave portion 15 side engages with the root portion 115c that is the boundary between the engagement convex portion 115 and the upper surface 113b. The match is complete. The conductive band 151 is disposed on the upper surface 113b on the pulling direction side adjacent to the engaging convex portion 115, and the electrode portion 84a is also disposed on the pulling direction side from the end edge 84b. When 84b and the base portion 115c are engaged, that is, when the fitting of both the connectors is completed, the conductive band 151 can be contacted. At this time, as shown in FIG. 8B described later, the conductive band 151 does not necessarily need to be in contact with the root portion 115c, and the edge 84b is in contact with the electrode portion 84a when engaged with the root portion 115c. If it is in.

基板用コネクタ１と電線用コネクタ１０１との嵌合長さに比較的余裕がある場合や、係止面１１５ｂを上面１１３ｂに対し比較的急峻にあるいは直角程度に形成した場合には、前記導電帯１５１の両端部は、後述の図８（ｃ）に示されるように、一部が係合凸部１１５の係止面１１５ｂ上に掛かるように形成されていてもよい。   When the fitting length between the board connector 1 and the wire connector 101 is relatively large, or when the locking surface 115b is formed relatively steeply or at a right angle to the upper surface 113b, the conductive band is used. Both end portions of 151 may be formed so as to partially hang on the locking surface 115b of the engaging convex portion 115 as shown in FIG.

例えば、被挿入部１１３の上面１１３ｂに設けられた導電帯１５１に、図８（ｃ）に示されるように、係止面１１５ｂに亘って膨出部１５１ａが設けられている場合、根本部１１５ｃの補強となり、電線用コネクタ１０１を、係合状態の基板用コネクタ１から抜取る際に、ネイル８１の腕部８４が係合凸部１１５の根本部１１５ｃをこじって、係合凸部１１５を破損してしまうことを防止することができる。   For example, in the case where the conductive band 151 provided on the upper surface 113b of the inserted portion 113 is provided with a bulging portion 151a across the locking surface 115b as shown in FIG. 8C, the root portion 115c. When the electric wire connector 101 is pulled out of the board connector 1 in the engaged state, the arm portion 84 of the nail 81 twists the root portion 115c of the engaging convex portion 115, and the engaging convex portion 115 is It is possible to prevent damage.

このとき、腕部８４と導電帯１５１とは端縁８４ｂが根本部１１５ｃと係合する前に接してしまうが、嵌合長に余裕がある場合特に問題はない。また、係止面１１５ｂを上面１１３ｂに対し比較的急峻にあるいは直角程度に形成したときは、嵌合の操作において腕部８４が係合面１１５ｂを短時間で通り越すため、端縁８４ｂと根本部１１５ｃが係合する。   At this time, the arm portion 84 and the conductive band 151 come into contact before the end edge 84b engages with the root portion 115c, but there is no particular problem when the fitting length has a margin. Further, when the engaging surface 115b is formed relatively steeply or at a right angle with respect to the upper surface 113b, the arm portion 84 passes over the engaging surface 115b in a short time in the fitting operation, so that the edge 84b and the root portion are formed. 115c is engaged.

なお、前記導電帯１５１は、被挿入部１１３の上面にめっき、蒸着、塗布等の方法によって形成された金属被膜であってもよいし、接着、ねじ止等の手段によって固着された金属薄板、金属薄膜、導電性樹脂板等であってもよいし、オーバーモールド、二色成形等の成形方法によって被挿入部１１３と一体成形された金属薄板、金属薄膜、導電性樹脂板等であってもよい。   The conductive band 151 may be a metal film formed on the upper surface of the insertion portion 113 by a method such as plating, vapor deposition, or application, or a metal thin plate fixed by means such as adhesion or screwing, It may be a metal thin film, a conductive resin plate or the like, or may be a metal thin plate, a metal thin film, a conductive resin plate or the like integrally formed with the inserted portion 113 by a molding method such as overmolding or two-color molding. Good.

本実施の形態において、前記ネイル８１は、図示されない嵌合検知装置に接続されている。該嵌合検知装置は、ハウジング１１の左右に取付けられた一対のネイル８１の導通状態に基づいて、基板用コネクタ１と電線用コネクタ１０１との嵌合状態を検知する装置であり、一対のネイル８１が相互に導通すると基板用コネクタ１と電線用コネクタ１０１との嵌合が完了したことを検知する。なお、前記嵌合検知装置は、例えば、基板用コネクタ１が実装されている基板に実装され、該基板の導電トレースを介して、各ネイル８１の固定部８３が固定されている接続パッド等に接続されている。   In the present embodiment, the nail 81 is connected to a fitting detection device (not shown). The fitting detection device is a device that detects a fitting state between the board connector 1 and the wire connector 101 based on a conduction state of a pair of nails 81 attached to the left and right sides of the housing 11. When 81 is electrically connected to each other, it is detected that the fitting between the board connector 1 and the wire connector 101 is completed. The fitting detection device is mounted on a board on which the board connector 1 is mounted, for example, on a connection pad or the like on which a fixing portion 83 of each nail 81 is fixed via a conductive trace of the board. It is connected.

次に、前記基板用コネクタ１と電線用コネクタ１０１とを嵌合する動作について説明する。   Next, the operation of fitting the board connector 1 and the wire connector 101 will be described.

図５は本発明の実施の形態における基板用コネクタと電線用コネクタとを嵌合する状態を電線用コネクタ側から観た図、図６は本発明の実施の形態における基板用コネクタと電線用コネクタとを嵌合する第１の状態を示す断面図であり図５におけるＡ−Ａ矢視断面図、図７は本発明の実施の形態における基板用コネクタと電線用コネクタとを嵌合する第２の状態を示す断面図であり図５におけるＡ−Ａ矢視断面図、図８は本発明の実施の形態における基板用コネクタと電線用コネクタとの嵌合が完了した状態を示す断面図であり図５におけるＡ−Ａ矢視断面図である。なお、図８において、（ｂ）及び（ｃ）は（ａ）のＢ部拡大図である。   FIG. 5 is a view of the state in which the board connector and the wire connector according to the embodiment of the present invention are fitted from the side of the wire connector, and FIG. 6 is a board connector and the wire connector according to the embodiment of the present invention. FIG. 7 is a cross-sectional view showing a first state in which the board connector is taken along line AA in FIG. 5, and FIG. 7 is a second view of fitting the board connector and the wire connector in the embodiment of the present invention. 5 is a cross-sectional view taken along the line AA in FIG. 5, and FIG. 8 is a cross-sectional view showing a state in which the board connector and the wire connector are completely fitted in the embodiment of the present invention. It is AA arrow sectional drawing in FIG. In addition, in FIG. 8, (b) and (c) are the B section enlarged views of (a).

まず、オペレータは、手指等によって、図１に示されるように、基板用コネクタ１の挿入開口１３と電線用コネクタ１０１の対向面１１３ａとが向合うような姿勢として相互に接近させる。そして、電線用コネクタ１０１の被挿入部１１３を、図６に示されるように、基板用コネクタ１の挿入開口１３内に挿入する。   First, as shown in FIG. 1, the operator causes the insertion opening 13 of the board connector 1 and the facing surface 113 a of the electric wire connector 101 to approach each other with fingers or the like. Then, the inserted portion 113 of the wire connector 101 is inserted into the insertion opening 13 of the board connector 1 as shown in FIG.

これにより、基板用コネクタ１の端子６１における接触部６４の先端が電線用コネクタ１０１の端子収容孔１１６内に進入し、該端子収容孔１１６内に収容されている相手方端子との接触が開始される。なお、図６に示される状態では、係合凸部１１５は、まだネイル８１の腕部８４と係合していない。   As a result, the tip of the contact portion 64 of the terminal 61 of the board connector 1 enters the terminal receiving hole 116 of the electric wire connector 101, and contact with the counterpart terminal accommodated in the terminal accommodating hole 116 is started. The In the state shown in FIG. 6, the engaging convex portion 115 has not yet engaged with the arm portion 84 of the nail 81.

続いて、基板用コネクタ１と電線用コネクタ１０１とを更に近付けて、該電線用コネクタ１０１の被挿入部１１３を基板用コネクタ１の挿入開口１３内の更に奥に進入させると、図７に示されるように、係合凸部１１５がネイル８１の電極部８４ａの下面に当接する。この場合、係合凸部１１５が被挿入部１１３とともに、図７における左方に進行すると、まず、ハウジング１１の上壁部１２における挿入開口１３の入口側（図７における右側）、すなわち、対向面寄りの部分と当接するが、その部分が薄く形成され、テーパ面１１５ａが緩やかに傾斜しているので、係合凸部１１５は、そこをスムーズに通過することができる。また、ネイル８１の腕部８４は、弾性を備える金属板から成り、基部が取付部８２に固定されたカンチレバー状の部材であるので、その自由端である電極部８４ａは、係合凸部１１５に当接することによって押上げられ、図７に示されるように、上方に弾性的に変位する。   Subsequently, when the board connector 1 and the electric wire connector 101 are brought closer to each other and the inserted portion 113 of the electric wire connector 101 is further moved into the insertion opening 13 of the board connector 1, as shown in FIG. As shown, the engaging projection 115 abuts on the lower surface of the electrode portion 84 a of the nail 81. In this case, when the engaging convex portion 115 moves to the left in FIG. 7 together with the inserted portion 113, first, the inlet side (right side in FIG. 7) of the insertion opening 13 in the upper wall portion 12 of the housing 11, that is, the opposite side. Although it abuts on the portion near the surface, the portion is formed thin and the tapered surface 115a is gently inclined, so that the engaging convex portion 115 can pass therethrough smoothly. Further, the arm portion 84 of the nail 81 is made of a metal plate having elasticity, and a base portion is a cantilever-like member fixed to the attachment portion 82. Therefore, the electrode portion 84a which is a free end thereof is the engagement convex portion 115. And is elastically displaced upward as shown in FIG.

続いて、電線用コネクタ１０１の被挿入部１１３を基板用コネクタ１の挿入開口１３内の更に奥に進入させると、図８（ａ）に示されるように、基板用コネクタ１と電線用コネクタ１０１との嵌合が完了する。この場合、被挿入部１１３が図８（ａ）における左方に進行すると、係合凸部１１５は、係合凹部１５内に進入する。すると、ネイル８１の腕部８４は、弾性的に元の姿勢に復帰しようとするばね性によって、図８（ａ）に示されるように、下方に弾性的に変位し、端縁８４ｂが係合凸部１１５の根本部１１５ａに係合する。   Subsequently, when the inserted portion 113 of the wire connector 101 is further moved into the insertion opening 13 of the board connector 1, the board connector 1 and the wire connector 101 are shown in FIG. Is completed. In this case, when the inserted portion 113 advances to the left in FIG. 8A, the engaging convex portion 115 enters the engaging concave portion 15. Then, the arm portion 84 of the nail 81 is elastically displaced downward as shown in FIG. 8 (a) due to the elasticity of elastically returning to the original posture, and the end edge 84b is engaged. Engage with the root 115a of the protrusion 115.

これにより、係合凸部１１５は、腕部８４によって係止される。この場合、係合凸部１１５は、腕部８４に対して、図８（ａ）における右方へ移動することができなくなる。そのため、基板用コネクタ１と電線用コネクタ１０１とは嵌合された状態でロックされ、嵌合の不要な解除が防止される。   Thereby, the engaging convex portion 115 is locked by the arm portion 84. In this case, the engaging protrusion 115 cannot move to the right in FIG. Therefore, the board connector 1 and the wire connector 101 are locked in a fitted state, and unnecessary release of the fitting is prevented.

また、図８（ｂ）に詳細に示されるように、ネイル８１の電極部８４ａは、被挿入部１１３の上面に配設された導電帯１５１に当接する。これにより、ハウジング１１の左右に取付けられた一対のネイル８１は、導電帯１５１を介して互いに導通するので、基板用コネクタ１と電線用コネクタ１０１との嵌合が完了したことが、前記ネイル８１に接続された嵌合検知装置によって検知される。この場合、ネイル８１の電極部８４ａは、ばね性によって導電帯１５１に弾性的に押付けられるので、安定的に導電帯１５１との接触状態を維持することができる。   Further, as shown in detail in FIG. 8B, the electrode portion 84 a of the nail 81 abuts on a conductive band 151 provided on the upper surface of the inserted portion 113. As a result, the pair of nails 81 attached to the left and right sides of the housing 11 are electrically connected to each other via the conductive band 151, so that the mating between the board connector 1 and the wire connector 101 is completed. It is detected by a fitting detection device connected to. In this case, since the electrode portion 84a of the nail 81 is elastically pressed against the conductive band 151 due to the spring property, the contact state with the conductive band 151 can be stably maintained.

さらに、ネイル８１の腕部８４は、係合凸部１１５を係止して基板用コネクタ１と電線用コネクタ１０１とを嵌合した状態でロックするロック部材として機能するところ、金属から成る部材なので、基板用コネクタ１及び電線用コネクタ１０１が高温環境下で使用されても、熱によって変形することがなく、基板用コネクタ１と電線用コネクタ１０１とを嵌合した状態で、長期間に亘（わた）り安定的にロックを維持することができる。例えば、係合凸部１１５を係止するロック部材がハウジング１１と同様に合成樹脂等によって形成されたものである場合、１００〔℃〕程度の高温環境下で長期間に亘り使用されると、熱によるクリープが発生して塑性変形してしまうことがあり、ロックが解除される可能性があるが、本実施の形態においては、金属から成るネイル８１の腕部８４がロック部材として機能するので、熱によるクリープが発生することがなく、長期間に亘り安定的にロックを維持することができる。   Further, the arm portion 84 of the nail 81 functions as a lock member that locks the engagement convex portion 115 and locks the board connector 1 and the wire connector 101, and is a member made of metal. Even if the board connector 1 and the wire connector 101 are used in a high temperature environment, the board connector 1 and the wire connector 101 are not deformed by heat, and the board connector 1 and the wire connector 101 are fitted over a long period of time ( The lock can be maintained stably. For example, when the lock member that locks the engagement convex portion 115 is formed of a synthetic resin or the like like the housing 11, when used in a high temperature environment of about 100 [° C.] for a long time, Creep due to heat may occur and plastic deformation may occur, and the lock may be released. However, in this embodiment, the arm portion 84 of the nail 81 made of metal functions as a lock member. In addition, the creep due to heat does not occur, and the lock can be stably maintained over a long period of time.

このように、本実施の形態においては、ハウジング１１は一対のネイル８１を備え、そのネイル８１は係合凹部１５に配設又は係合凹部１５に隣接して配設された電極部８４ａを備え、相手方ハウジング１１１は、一対の係合凸部１１５と、両端部が係合凸部１１５に配設又は係合凸部１１５に隣接して配設された導電帯１５１とを備え、基板用コネクタ１と電線用コネクタ１０１とが嵌合すると、係合凹部１５と係合凸部１１５とが係合するとともに、電極部８４ａが導電帯１５１に接触し、一対のネイル８１が導電帯１５１を介して導通する。これにより、基板用コネクタ１と電線用コネクタ１０１との嵌合を安定的に検知することができる。そして、基板用コネクタ１及び電線用コネクタ１０１の構成が簡素なので、製造が容易であり、コストを低減することができる。   Thus, in the present embodiment, the housing 11 includes a pair of nails 81, and the nails 81 include the electrode portions 84 a disposed in the engaging recess 15 or adjacent to the engaging recess 15. The counterpart housing 111 includes a pair of engaging projections 115 and a conductive band 151 having both end portions disposed on the engaging projections 115 or adjacent to the engaging projections 115. 1 and the wire connector 101 are engaged with each other, the engaging recess 15 and the engaging protrusion 115 are engaged with each other, the electrode portion 84 a is in contact with the conductive band 151, and the pair of nails 81 are interposed through the conductive band 151. And conduct. Thereby, fitting with connector 1 for substrates and connector 101 for electric wires can be detected stably. And since the structure of the connector 1 for boards and the connector 101 for electric wires is simple, manufacture is easy and it can reduce cost.

また、ネイル８１はハウジング１１の両側に取付けられ、係合凹部１５はハウジング１１の両側近傍に形成され、係合凸部１１５は相手方ハウジング１１１の両側近傍に形成される。そのため、基板用コネクタ１及び電線用コネクタ１０１が幅広の扁平な形状を備えるものであっても、ネイル８１を使用して、嵌合が不完全になりやすい幅方向端部近傍の嵌合を検知することができる。   The nail 81 is attached to both sides of the housing 11, the engaging recess 15 is formed in the vicinity of both sides of the housing 11, and the engaging protrusion 115 is formed in the vicinity of both sides of the counterpart housing 111. Therefore, even if the board connector 1 and the wire connector 101 have a wide flat shape, the nail 81 is used to detect the fitting in the vicinity of the end in the width direction where fitting is likely to be incomplete. can do.
