Description

本発明は、電気信号を伝達する際に使用するコネクタのような信号用電気接続端子装置及びその製造方法に関するものである。   The present invention relates to a signal electrical connection terminal device such as a connector used for transmitting an electrical signal and a method of manufacturing the same.

従来から信号用電気接続端子装置として特許文献1に示されるようなコネクタが知られている。このコネクタは一端部が接触部、他端部が端子部となったばね性を有する複数の電気接続端子を樹脂製のハウジングに並設したものである。   Conventionally, a connector as shown in Patent Document 1 is known as a signal electrical connection terminal device. In this connector, a plurality of electrical connection terminals having spring properties with one end portion serving as a contact portion and the other end portion serving as a terminal portion are arranged side by side on a resin housing.

コネクタにおける電気接続端子は、加工工程において加工がし易く、形状の寸法精度を確保することが重要であり、また、製品としては高い接触圧を確保することが重要である。   The electrical connection terminal in the connector is easy to process in the processing process, it is important to ensure the dimensional accuracy of the shape, and it is important to ensure a high contact pressure as a product.

従来のコネクタにおける電気接続端子は、リン青銅のような銅合金の板材を打ち抜き、加工することで形成してある。   The electrical connection terminal in the conventional connector is formed by punching and processing a copper alloy plate material such as phosphor bronze.

このような銅合金の板材を加工することで電気接続端子を製造するに当たって、加工性を向上させて形状自由度を高めるには延性を高める必要があるが、この場合は耐力(弾性限)を犠牲にする必要があり、また、接触圧を高めるには耐力(弾性限)を高める必要があるが、この場合は延性を犠牲にする必要がある。同時にヤング率を高めることも有効であるが、成分の影響が大きく、その上昇には限界がある。このため、従来にあっては、電気接続端子の形状自由度を確保し且つ接触圧を確保するため、延性、耐力(弾性限)の双方をある程度犠牲にして延性とヤング率、耐力(弾性限)のバランスが取れたところで成形する方法で製造している。   In manufacturing electrical connection terminals by processing such copper alloy plate materials, it is necessary to increase ductility in order to improve workability and increase the degree of freedom of shape, but in this case, the yield strength (elastic limit) is reduced. It is necessary to sacrifice, and in order to increase the contact pressure, it is necessary to increase the yield strength (elastic limit). In this case, it is necessary to sacrifice ductility. At the same time, it is effective to increase the Young's modulus, but the influence of the components is large, and the increase is limited. For this reason, conventionally, in order to secure the degree of freedom of the shape of the electrical connection terminal and secure the contact pressure, the ductility, Young's modulus, and proof strength (elastic limit) are sacrificed to some extent in both ductility and proof stress (elastic limit). ) Is produced by a method of forming when the balance is achieved.

特開平6−111872号公報JP-A-6-111872

上記のように、従来にあっては、延性、耐力(弾性限)の双方をある程度犠牲にして延性とヤング率、耐力(弾性限)のバランスが取れたところで成形するので、接触圧を高くすること及び形状の自由度のいずれにおいても制約があり、このため高接触圧を確保しながらコネクタの小型化が図り難いという問題があった。   As described above, conventionally, molding is performed at a balance between ductility, Young's modulus, and yield strength (elastic limit) at the expense of both ductility and yield strength (elastic limit), so the contact pressure is increased. In addition, there is a restriction in both the degree of freedom and the shape, and there is a problem that it is difficult to reduce the size of the connector while ensuring a high contact pressure.

本発明は上記の従来例の問題点に鑑みて発明したものであって、加工性及び形状自由度が向上しながら高い接触圧を確保できる信号用電気接続端子装置及びその製造方法を提供することを課題としている。   The present invention was invented in view of the problems of the conventional example described above, and provides a signal electrical connection terminal device capable of ensuring a high contact pressure while improving workability and shape freedom, and a method for manufacturing the same.

Moreover, since the degree of freedom of shape is excellent and a high contact pressure can be secured, the signal electrical connection terminal device 10 having a high contact pressure can be miniaturized.

次に、本発明の信号用電気接続端子装置10の製造方法の一実施形態を図1〜図8に基づいて説明する。   Next, an embodiment of a method for producing the signal electrical connection terminal device 10 of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS.

まず、図1に示すような焼入れ硬化型の鋼の完全焼鈍材の帯材7をプレス機を用いて、帯材7の巾方向の一部で且つ長手方向に沿った連続帯部8の側端縁に、一端部が繋がった加工前端子芯材9を複数連続帯部8の長手方向に並設する形状に打ち抜いて、図2に示すような打ち抜き体12を形成する工程を実施する。   First, as shown in FIG. 1, a band 7 of a completely hardened steel of quench hardening type steel is pressed using a press machine, and is a part of the width direction of the band 7 and the side of the continuous band 8 along the longitudinal direction. A step of forming a punched body 12 as shown in FIG. 2 is performed by punching the unprocessed terminal core material 9 with one end connected to the end edge into a shape in which the plurality of continuous strips 8 are arranged in the longitudinal direction.

図2に示す実施形態では、連続帯部8の一側端縁に、長手方向に一定間隔で細帯状の加工前端子芯材9の一端部が繋がって並列する略櫛歯状となるように打ち抜いた例を示している。   In the embodiment shown in FIG. 2, one side edge of the continuous band portion 8 is connected to one end portion of the pre-processing terminal core material 9 having a narrow band shape at regular intervals in the longitudinal direction so as to have a substantially comb-like shape. An example of punching is shown.

Then, the process of forming the electrical connection terminal 1 is performed. Here, the solder mounting portion 15 is formed by applying the gold plating 6 to the portion 3 that becomes the solder mounting portion formed by bending as described above, and the gold plating 6 is applied to the portion 4 that becomes the electrical connection portion. A connecting portion 16 is formed. In applying the gold plating 6, for example, a voltage is applied while the terminal core material 5 formed in a predetermined shape as described above is immersed in an electrolytic gold plating solution, and the entire terminal core material 5 is gold-plated as shown in FIG. 6, and then a part of the gold plating 6 between the portion 3 which finally becomes the solder mounting portion and the portion 4 which finally becomes the electrical connection portion of the terminal core material 5 formed in the predetermined shape. As shown in FIG. 6, gold plating 6 is applied to the portion 3 to be a solder mounting portion and the portion 4 to be an electrical connection portion. In the figure, reference numeral 6a denotes a portion where the gold plating 6 is removed.

上記金メッキ6を施す工程の次に、連続帯部8に一端部が繋がった複数の電気接続端子1を合成樹脂により一体化することで、図7に示すように合成樹脂製のベース2に複数の電気接続端子1が一体化された信号用電気接続端子装置10を形成する工程を実施する。   After the step of applying the gold plating 6, a plurality of electrical connection terminals 1 having one end connected to the continuous band portion 8 are integrated with a synthetic resin, whereby a plurality of bases 2 made of a synthetic resin are formed on the base 2 made of synthetic resin as shown in FIG.
