  However, in the electrical installation box disclosed in Patent Document 1, the cover plate is removed when the wire protection tube is connected to the protection tube holding port. For this reason, when the electrical installation box is installed, there is a problem that waste separated from the electrical installation box is generated.

  The present invention has been made in view of the above-described conventional problems, and an object thereof is to provide a wiring box that can reduce the amount of waste generated when the wiring box is installed.

  In order to solve the above problems, the invention according to claim 1 is a wiring box having a box inner space surrounded by a peripheral wall, and the peripheral wall has flexible pipes or cables. The insertion hole is closed by a closing portion and another closing portion integrally formed on the peripheral wall, and the closing portion is connected to the other closing portion and the connecting portion. The gist of the present invention is that they are connected and formed so as to be rotatable about another connecting portion integrally formed on the peripheral wall with the connecting portion as a rotation center.

  Therefore, according to the first aspect of the present invention, the insertion hole is closed by the closing portion and another closing portion integrally formed on the peripheral wall, but when the wiring box is installed, the pipe or cable is inserted. When inserting into the hole, the closed state of the insertion hole by the closed part can be released by rotating the closed part with the connecting part as the rotation center. The insertion hole has a larger opening area than before the closing portion is rotated, and it becomes easy to insert tubes or cables. In addition, since the closed portion remains connected to the peripheral wall by another closed portion and a connecting portion, the member that closes the insertion hole becomes the waste separated from the wiring box when the wiring box is installed.

  As shown in FIG. 2, a square hole is formed on both the left and right sides of the bottom wall 12, and through holes 36 penetrating the bottom wall 12 in the thickness direction are formed to extend in the vertical direction of the wiring box 11. Almost all of each through hole 36 is closed by a lid member 37, but the first side wall 13 a side edge of each lid member 37 and the bottom wall 12 side end of the closing member 27 that closes the insertion port 21. There is a gap between the edges. As described above, in a state where the through hole 36 is closed by the lid member 37, it is impossible to pass the finger of the hand through the through hole 36 and project the finger to the back side of the bottom wall 12. The lid member 37 has a first lid portion 38 that closes about half of the first side wall 13a side (upper side) of the through hole 36, and a second side that closes about half of the second side wall 13b side (lower side) of the through hole 36. The lid part 39 is formed integrally. The first lid portion 38 and the second lid portion 39 are connected to the bottom wall 12, which is the peripheral edge of the through hole 36, via connecting pieces 40. Further, the first lid portion 38 and the second lid portion 39 are hingedly connected via a hinge portion 41. The hinge portion 41 is configured by forming the lid member 37 into a thin shape so that a cross-sectional view along the thickness direction of the lid member 37 is recessed in a tapered shape. Then, in any one of the first lid portion 38 and the second lid portion 39, when the connecting piece 40 is divided, the one lid portion is directed to the outside of the wiring box 11 with the hinge portion 41 as a rotation center. It can be rotated.

  In addition, the hinge part 41 is formed so that one of the first lid part 38 and the second lid part 39 is in contact with the other so that the rotation angle of one lid part is less than 90 degrees. . As shown in FIG. 7, when the first lid portion 38 is pivoted about the hinge portion 41 and the closed state of the through hole 36 by the first lid portion 38 is released, the finger is placed in the through hole 36. The finger can be protruded to the back side of the bottom wall 12. That is, by rotating the first lid portion 38, the opening area of the through hole 36 at the bottom wall 12 becomes wider than before the first lid portion 38 is rotated, and the finger of the hand is inserted through the widened portion. Will be able to.

  Next, a description will be given of a method of installing the wiring box 11 in the through hole 50 and installing it in the building wall W after the cable C is drawn into the wiring box 11 in the wiring box 11. In this case, the cable C is inserted into the corrugated conduit 10.

  First, as shown in FIG. 4, the connecting piece 34 is divided, the knock portion 35 is removed from the closing plate 30, and the insertion hole 33 is opened. Next, the connecting piece 31 is divided, and the closing plate 30 is rotated toward the outside of the wiring box 11 with the connecting portion 32 as a rotation center, thereby causing the insertion hole 29 and the communication hole 55 to communicate with each other. Next, a through hole 50 is formed in the wall material Wa standing on the front side of the building wall W, and the cable C is pulled out from the through hole 50 to the front side of the wall material Wa. Then, the end portion of the drawn cable C is inserted into the insertion hole 29. At this time, the opening area of the insertion hole 29 becomes larger than that before the closing plate 30 is rotated due to the release of the closing state due to the rotation of the closing plate 30, and the insertion hole 29 communicates with the communication hole 55. The opening area is even wider. Further, the closing plate 30 itself is also opened by the insertion hole 33, and the insertion hole 33 communicates with the insertion hole 29 that is widened by the rotation of the closing plate 30. For this reason, the insertion of the cable C into the insertion hole 29 is promptly performed.

  Next, as shown in FIG. 5, the wiring box 11 is passed through the through hole 50 from the bottom wall 12 side, and the opening of the wiring box 11 is made to face the front side of the building wall W. At this time, the wiring box 11 moves toward the through hole 50 along the drawn cable C. At this time, as shown in FIGS. 4 and 5, the peripheral edge portion 33a of the insertion hole 33 and the portion 32a facing the wiring box 11 at the connecting portion 32 are formed in a gentle arc shape. For this reason, even if the wiring box 11 moves along the cable C, the cable C is prevented from being damaged by the peripheral portion 33a of the insertion hole 33 and the portion 32a facing the wiring box 11 at the connecting portion 32. . Thereafter, the wiring box 11 is installed on the building wall W.

  Note that the wiring box 11 having the above-described configuration can be installed after the building wall W is constructed, and an installation method thereof will be described. First, a pair of wall materials Wa are erected so as to face each other at a predetermined interval, and the building wall W is constructed. In the building state of the building wall W, the corrugated conduit 10 is disposed inside the building wall W (between a pair of wall materials Wa). Next, as shown in FIG. 6, a through hole 50 is drilled in a wall material Wa standing on the front side of the building wall W. The through hole 50 is slightly larger than the outer shape of the wiring box 11 and is sized to allow the wiring box 11 to be inserted from the bottom wall 12 side, and the engagement piece 20 is formed at the peripheral portion of the through hole 50 in the wall material Wa. It is drilled to a size that allows engagement. Next, as shown in FIG. 7, the connecting piece 28 is divided to remove the closing member 27 from the insertion port 21, and the second connecting portion 24 is removed from the first connecting portion 23. Further, in the through hole 36 that communicates with the insertion port 21, the connecting piece 40 that connects the first lid portion 38 to the bottom wall 12 is divided, and the wiring box 11 has the first lid portion 38 as the center of rotation of the hinge portion 41. The opening area of the through hole 36 is widened by rotating it outward.

  Next, as shown in FIG. 8, the wiring box 11 is passed through the through hole 50 from the bottom wall 12 side so that the opening of the wiring box 11 faces the front side of the building wall W. Subsequently, a hand is inserted from the opening of the wiring box 11 into the internal space 11a, and a finger is inserted through the through hole 36 having an enlarged opening area so that the finger protrudes to the outside of the wiring box 11. Insert into. Then, a finger is inserted into the inside of the corrugated conduit 10 from the connection end 10A (lower end) of the corrugated conduit 10 disposed in the building wall W, and the finger is inserted into the inner periphery of the corrugated conduit 10. Hook on the surface. Next, the hand is moved to the front side of the building wall W, the finger is drawn toward the bottom wall 12 side (wiring box 11 side), and the corrugated conduit 10 is drawn toward the bottom wall 12 side. As shown, the connection end 10A of the corrugated conduit 10 is accommodated in the accommodation port 21b, and the extraction restricting portion 23a is engaged with the outer surface of the ridge 10a.

  9 and 10, in this engaged state, the connection end portion 10A of the corrugated conduit tube 10 is accommodated in the wiring box 11 in approximately 2/3 in the radial direction, and the corrugated wire More than half of the inner side of the tube 10 is exposed toward the inner side of the wiring box 11. Subsequently, when the corrugated conduit 10 is drawn to the inside of the wiring box 11, as shown in the two-dot chain line in FIG. 10 and FIG. 11, the corrugated conduit 10 is directed from the accommodation port 21b toward the connection port 21a, that is, Then, it is elastically deformed in the length direction of the insertion port 21. At this time, the corrugated electric conduit 10 is elastically deformed into an elliptical shape that is elongated in the length direction of the insertion opening 21 by pulling the corrugated electric conduit 10 in the length direction (front-rear direction) of the insertion opening 21 with a finger. To do. When the corrugated conduit 10 is elastically deformed, the first connecting portion 23 is fitted into the concave strip 10b of the corrugated conduit 10, and at the same time, the convex strip 10a engaged with the extraction restricting portion 23a is elastic. It is deformed and gets over the extraction restricting portion 23a.

  As a result, as shown by the two-dot chain line in FIG. 10 and FIG. 12, the corrugated conduit 10 is inserted into the insertion port 21 from the extraction restricting portion 23a, that is, the connection port 21a. One connecting portion 23 is fitted into the concave strip 10b. The first connecting portion 23 is connected to the connection port 21a of the insertion port 21 in a state in which the movement of the corrugated electric tube 10 in the axial direction is restricted, and the corrugated electric tube is removed by the extraction restricting portion 23a. 10 is restricted from coming out of the insertion opening 21 along the radial direction.

  Further, when pulling the corrugated conduit 10 toward the inside of the wiring box 11, the wiring box 11 is pushed into the through hole 50, and the engagement piece 20 is engaged with the peripheral portion of the through hole 50. Then, the first lid portion 38 comes into contact with the wall material Wa on the back side of the building wall W, rotates around the hinge portion 41 in the direction of closing the through hole 36, and slightly closes the through hole 36. To do. For this reason, the opening degree of the through-hole 36 becomes small. Next, the screw 17 is rotated, the tongue piece 18 is drawn forward of the wiring box 11, and the wall material Wa on the front side of the building wall W is clamped by the tongue piece 18 and the engagement piece 20. As a result, the wiring box 11 is fixed to the wall material Wa and installed on the building wall W. Thereafter, a cable (not shown) is drawn into the corrugated conduit 10 and a wiring device is connected to the cable.

According to the above embodiment, the following effects can be obtained.
(1) When the cable C is inserted into the insertion hole 29 of the wiring box 11 and the wiring box 11 is installed on the building wall W, the blocking plate 30 is rotated by turning the connecting portion 32 around the rotation center. The closed state of the insertion hole 29 by the plate 30 can be released. At this time, since the closing plate 30 remains connected to the second side wall 13b by the connecting portion 32, the closing plate 30 that closes the insertion hole 29 is separated from the wiring box 11 when the wiring box 11 is installed. Waste is prevented. Therefore, the amount of waste generated when installing the wiring box 11 can be reduced as compared with the case where the blocking plate 30 is separated and removed from the second side wall 13b.

  (2) The connecting portion 32 is formed by a hinge formed by thinly forming a connecting portion between the second side wall 13b and the closing plate 30. That is, it is possible to enable a configuration in which the closing plate 30 can be rotated while being integrated with the wiring box 11 with a simple configuration that is formed thinly when the wiring box 11 is formed.

  (3) In a state where the closing plate 30 is rotated, the end edge of the closing plate 30 is separated from the bottom wall 12 and the opening area of the insertion hole 29 in the second side wall 13b is before the closing plate 30 is rotated. Become wider. Furthermore, by forming the insertion hole 33 on the bottom wall 12 side of the closing plate 30, the insertion hole 33 communicates with the opened insertion hole 29 and the workability of the operation of inserting the cable C into the insertion hole 29 is improved. be able to.

  (4) The communication hole 55 is communicated with the insertion hole 29, and the insertion hole 29 is formed from the second side wall 13 b where the insertion hole 29 is formed to the bottom wall 12. For this reason, for example, compared to the case where the insertion hole 29 is formed only in the second side wall 13b in which the insertion hole 29 is formed, the opening area of the insertion hole 29 when the closing plate 30 is rotated. And the workability of the work of inserting the cable C into the insertion hole 29 can be improved.

  (5) When the wiring box 11 moves along the cable C in a state where the closing plate 30 is rotated and the cable C is inserted into the insertion hole 29, the location 32 a that faces the wiring box 11 at the connecting portion 32 The cable C may be in sliding contact. At this time, in the connecting portion 32 after the closing plate 30 is rotated, the portion 32a facing the inside of the wiring box 11 is formed in a gentle arc shape, and thus the portion 32a is formed in a pin square shape. As in the case, the cable C can be prevented from being damaged. Further, since the peripheral portion 33a of the insertion hole 33 of the closing plate 30 also has a gentle arc shape, when the wiring box 11 moves along the cable C, the peripheral portion 33a of the insertion hole 33 slides on the cable C. It is possible to prevent the cable C from being damaged by the insertion hole 33.

  (6) A through hole 36 is formed in the bottom wall 12 so that a finger of a hand can protrude to the outside of the wiring box 11. When installing the wiring box 11, after passing the wiring box 11 through the through hole 50 of the building wall W, the corrugated conduit 10 is connected to the wiring box 11 with a finger protruding from the through hole 36 to the outside of the wiring box 11. By pulling to the side, the corrugated conduit 10 can be inserted and connected to the insertion port 21. That is, after the wiring box 11 is accommodated in the building wall W from the through hole 50, the corrugated conduit 10 can be connected to the wiring box 11, and the wiring box 11 can be retrofitted to the building wall W. Therefore, after connecting the corrugated conduit 10 to the wiring box 11, as in the case where the wiring box 11 is accommodated in the building wall W, the large transparency that allows the wiring box 11 and the corrugated conduit 10 to pass through simultaneously. It is not necessary to make the hole 50 in the wall material Wa, and the size of the through hole 50 can be made slightly larger than the outer shape of the wiring box 11. As a result, the through-hole 50 becomes much larger than the outer shape of the wiring box 11, so that when the wiring box 11 is not sufficiently fixed, the wiring box 11 is rattled in the through-hole 50. Can be prevented.

  (7) When the corrugated conduit 10 is inserted and connected to the insertion port 21, the corrugated conduit is inserted into the wiring box 11 after the wiring box 11 is accommodated in the building wall W or in the middle of accommodation. 10 can be connected, and therefore it is not necessary to draw the corrugated conduit 10 from the through hole 50 to the front side of the building wall W. Therefore, when the corrugated conduit 10 is pulled out to the front side of the building wall W, the corrugated conduit 10 is brought into contact with the peripheral edge of the through hole 50 to prevent the through hole 50 and the corrugated conduit 10 from being damaged. be able to.

  (8) The through hole 36 is closed by the lid member 37 (the first lid portion 38 and the second lid portion 39), and when the corrugated conduit 10 is connected, the lid member 37 (the first lid member 37 is centered on the hinge portion 41). By rotating the lid portion 38), it is possible to widen the opening area of the through hole 36 and insert the finger. Therefore, until the finger is passed through the through hole 36, that is, until the wiring box 11 is installed on the building wall W, the bottom wall 12 is closed by the lid member 37 and the rigidity can be maintained high. As a result, for example, it is possible to prevent the wiring box 11 from being deformed or damaged during transportation of the wiring box 11, and it is possible to suppress entry of dust or the like into the wiring box 11.

  (9) After the corrugated conduit 10 is connected to the wiring box 11, the lid member 37 (first lid portion 38) rotates in a direction to close the through hole 36 by contacting the wall material Wa. For this reason, the opening degree of the through hole 36 can be reduced by the lid member 37 and the rotation of the lid member 37 in the direction in which the through hole 36 is opened can be restricted. Therefore, the lid member 37 can prevent the corrugated conduit 10 from coming out of the insertion port 21 from the accommodation port 21b.

  (10) The lid member 37 (first lid portion 38) is rotated in a direction protruding to the outside of the wiring box 11 to open the through hole 36. For this reason, for example, the lid member 37 does not exist in the wiring box 11 as in the case where the lid member 37 is rotated in the direction of entering the inside of the wiring box 11. Therefore, it is possible to prevent the lid member 37 from interfering with the insertion of the hand into the box inner space 11a. Further, when the corrugated conduit 10 is inserted into the insertion port 21, the lid member 37 becomes an obstacle. The corrugated conduit 10 can be quickly connected to the insertion port 21.

  (11) A connecting portion 22 is formed in the insertion port 21, and when the concave strip 10b is fitted to the connecting portion 22, the connecting portion 22 is engaged with the convex strip 10a of the connecting end portion 10A. It has become. For this reason, the corrugated conduit 10 can be connected to the wiring box 11 in a state where the movement of the corrugated conduit 10 inserted into the insertion port 21 in the axial direction is restricted by the connecting portion 22. As a result, the corrugated conduit 10 can be prevented from excessively entering the inside of the wiring box 11, and the connection end 10 </ b> A can be prevented from interfering with the wiring device accommodated in the wiring box 11.

  (12) In the connection portion 22 of the insertion port 21, extraction restriction portions 23a and 24a are formed, and the extraction restriction portions 23a and 24a are formed so as to be engageable with the protrusions 10a of the connection end portion 10A. For this reason, the movement to the radial direction of the corrugated conduit 10 inserted in the insertion port 21 is controlled, and the exit of the corrugated conduit 10 in the radial direction from the insertion port 21 (connection port 21a) is controlled. be able to. As a result, the state where the cable C protected by the corrugated conduit 10 is drawn into the wiring box 11 can be maintained.

  (13) The lid member 37 (first lid portion 38) is coupled to the bottom wall 12 via the coupling piece 40. For this reason, when the lid member 37 is not rotated, the lid member 37 is integrated with the bottom wall 12, and the lid member 37 can be prevented from swinging.

  (14) The lid member 37 (first lid portion 38) rotates around the hinge portion 41 as the rotation center when the through hole 36 is opened. That is, the lid member 37 is connected to the bottom wall 12 via the hinge portion 41. For this reason, even if the through-hole 36 is opened, the lid member 37 is not separated from the wiring box 11, and the lid member 37 is not generated as dust (waste) when the wiring box 11 is installed. it can.

  (15) When the connection end 10A of the corrugated conduit 10 is inserted into the insertion port 21, if the connection end 10A is accommodated in the accommodation port 21b, the extraction is restricted to the outer surface of the connection end 10A (the outer surface of the ridge 10a). The part 23a is engaged, and the movement of the corrugated conduit 10 is temporarily stopped. At this time, since the inner side of the connection end 10A is exposed from the accommodation port 21b to the inner side of the wiring box 11, the corrugated conduit 10 is pulled from the accommodation port 21b side toward the connection port 21a with the finger inserted. be able to. When the finger is hooked and pulled inside the connection end portion 10A, the connection end portion 10A is elastically deformed in the pulling direction, so that it is elastically deformed so as to extend from the accommodation port 21b side toward the connection port 21a. It is possible to facilitate passage of the extraction restricting portion 23a. On the other hand, the method of pushing the outer surface of the corrugated conduit 10 from the accommodation port 21b side to the connection port 21a side is elastically deformed so that the connection end portion 10A expands in the direction intersecting the pulling direction. The engagement area of the connecting end 10A to the extraction restricting portion 23a is expanded. Therefore, the method of hooking and pulling a finger inside the connection end 10A is more effective than the method of pushing the outer surface of the corrugated conduit 10 from the accommodation port 21b side toward the connection port 21a. It becomes easy to insert and connect to the insertion port 21.

  (16) In a state where the outer surface of the connection end 10A is engaged with the extraction restricting portion 23a, more than half (approximately 2/3) of the inner side of the connection end 10A is exposed inside the wiring box 11. For this reason, a finger can be reliably inserted inside the connection end 10A, and the work of hooking the finger inside the connection end 10A and pulling the corrugated conduit 10 can be performed easily and reliably.

  (17) The storage port 21b is formed from the first side wall 13a to the bottom wall 12. For this reason, when the wiring wall 11 is passed through the through hole 50 after the building wall W is constructed, the connection end portion 10A is easily accommodated into the accommodation port 21b from the bottom wall 12 side. At this time, the inner side of the connection end 10A is exposed to the inner side of the wiring box 11 from the accommodation port 21b, and the finger of the hand can be inserted into the inner side of the connection end 10A. Therefore, after the corrugated conduit 10 is pulled out to the front side of the building wall W and inserted into the insertion port 21 of the wiring box 11, there is no need to accommodate the wiring box 11 in the through hole 50. As a result, the drawn wave Since the wiring box 11 can be passed through the through hole 50 together with the attached conduit 10, the through hole 50 is not increased in size.

  (18) In a state where the lid member 37 (first lid portion 38) is rotated and the opening area of the through hole 36 is larger than that before the lid member 37 is rotated, the first lid portion 38 faces the through hole 36. In a tilted state. For this reason, the corrugated conduit 10 is pulled into the insertion port 21 (accommodating port) by drawing the corrugated conduit 10 toward the insertion port 21 in a state where the edge of the connection end 10A is in contact with the first lid 38. 21b) can be guided toward the side. Therefore, it is possible to facilitate the work of drawing the corrugated conduit 10 toward the insertion port 21.

In addition, you may change the said embodiment as follows.

The cable C may be inserted into the wiring box 11 by inserting C. In this case, the first lid portion 38 or the second lid portion 39 is rotated at a rotation angle of less than 90 degrees with respect to the bottom wall 12. Further, the through hole 36 constitutes an insertion hole formed in the bottom wall 12 as a peripheral wall, and the first lid portion 38 or the second lid portion 39 constitutes a closing portion that closes the through hole 36. If comprised in this way, since the 1st cover part 38 or the 2nd cover part 39 remains connected with the bottom wall 12 via the hinge part 41, a waste will not generate | occur | produce at the time of installation of the wiring box 11. FIG. Further, when the cable C is inserted, the cable C can be guided by the first lid portion 38 or the second lid portion 39 toward the through hole 36 by the first lid portion 38 or the second lid portion 39. The operation of inserting the cable C into the through hole 36 widened by the rotation of the first lid portion 38 or the second lid portion 39 can be performed more easily. In addition, the cable C can be prevented from coming out of the through hole 36 by the first lid portion 38 or the second lid portion 39.

You may set the position to the connection port 21a side of the position of the extraction control part 23a and the accommodation port 21b. In other words, in a state where the protruding strip 10a of the connection end 10A is engaged with the extraction restricting portion 23a, it is adjusted to the tube diameter of the corrugated conduit 10 so that a finger can be inserted inside the connection end 10A. The position of the extraction restricting portion 23a and the depth of the accommodation port 21b toward the connection port 21a may be set.

When the wiring box 11 is installed, the through hole 36 may be formed in the bottom wall 12, and in this case, the through hole 36 is closed by the bottom wall 12 instead of the lid member 37.
