Subsequently, the cover 50 is attached to the lower surface opening of the housing body 31. The cover 50 is pushed up from below while the lock frame 51 rides on the lock projection 38 and is elastically displaced. When the upper edge of the cover 50 hits the lower edge of the housing body 31, the lock frame 51 returns to its original shape. However, the housing 30 is formed as shown in FIG.

At this time, as shown in FIG. 5, each sub-housing 60 has a front end portion fitted in the fitting groove 46 </ b> A and a front end portion having a predetermined clearance in the radial direction in the fitting hole 45 </ b> A on the front side of the housing 30. The semi-cylindrical portion 63 of the sub-housing 60 has a diameter in the semicircular fitting hole 45B on the rear surface side of the housing 30 while the rear rib 69 is fitted in the fitting groove 46B. It will be in the state fitted with the predetermined clearance in the direction. That is, each sub-housing 60 is configured such that, in the lower end portion of the housing 30, movement in the axial direction (front-rear direction) is restricted, and in the direction intersecting the axial line (radial direction), free movement is allowed within the clearance. It is installed with.
A nut 42 is inserted into the housing chamber 43 of each base 41 with respect to such a housing 30, and a surface packing 36 is mounted in the packing mounting groove 35 on the lower surface of the flange 32, thereby completing the terminal block T.

Specifically, the lower end portion of the housing 30 is inserted from above into the through-hole 3 opened in the case upper wall 2, and then a bolt is inserted into the mounting hole 33 of the flange 32 so that the case upper wall 2. The flange 32, that is, the terminal block T is fixed to the case upper wall 2 by being screwed into the bolt hole. At the same time, the surface packing 36 is elastically compressed and pressed against the hole edge of the through hole 3, whereby the through hole 3 is sealed.

  When the terminal block T is attached in this way, the outer connection portion 14 of each terminal 10 is exposed on the upper surface side (outer side) of the case upper wall 2 in a form arranged on the upper surface of the housing 30 (pedestal block 40). It will be in the state where it faced. On the other hand, the socket terminal 20, which is an inner connection portion of each terminal 10, is housed in a sub-housing 60 that is supported so as to be radially movable with respect to the housing 30.

Next, a procedure for connecting the three-pole conductive member of the three-phase AC motor and the three-pole conductive member of the inverter using the terminal block T will be described.
First, a three-pole inner conductive member (enameled wire) on the motor side is connected to the inner connecting portion of the corresponding terminal 10, and a round pin terminal p provided at the tip of the enameled wire is connected to the arrow in FIG. As shown in FIG. 4, the socket 30 is inserted into the socket terminal 20 on the back side through the terminal insertion port 65 of the sub-housing 60 attached to the lower end of the housing 30.
At this time, even if the round pin terminal p is misaligned with respect to the socket terminal 20, the round pin terminal p is inserted while being aligned with the guiding portion 66.
Further, when the round pin terminals p are arranged at different positions and the center misalignment is particularly large, as the round pin terminal p is inserted along the guiding portion 66, the strip 12 of the terminal 10 is inserted. The sub-housing 60 moves in the radial direction while slightly deforming the shaft, thereby aligning the center.

Subsequently, the round pin terminal p is pushed in while expanding and displacing the elastic contact piece 23 of the louver terminal portion 21. When the push is stopped, the elastic contact piece 23 moves backward in the diameter reducing direction, so that the round pin The terminal p and the socket terminal 20 are elastically fitted and contacted with each other, and the three-side inner conductive member (enameled wire) on the motor side is connected to the inner connection portion (socket terminal 20) of the corresponding terminal 10. Become.
After that, the motor side case is assembled adjacently so as to cover the front opening of the transmission case 1.

Subsequently, the three-side outer conductive member (bus bar) on the inverter side is connected to the outer connection portion 14 of the corresponding terminal 10. Although not shown, each bus bar is overlapped on the outer connection portion 14 arranged side by side on the upper surface of the housing 30, and bolts are passed through the insertion holes 15 of the bus bar and the insertion holes 15 of the outer connection portion 14 to the accommodation chamber 43. By screwing and tightening the nut 42 that is locked and accommodated, the three-sided outer conductive member (bus bar) on the inverter side is connected to the outer connection portion 14 of the corresponding terminal 10.
After that, the inverter side case is assembled to the upper surfaces of the transmission case 1 and the motor side case that are integrally coupled as described above.
As described above, the three-pole conductive member provided in the three-phase AC motor and the three-pole conductive member provided in the inverter are electrically connected via the terminal block T, and the motor and the inverter are directly connected. The terminal connection structure is constructed.

In the present embodiment, a round pin terminal p is provided on the inner conductive member with respect to the inner connecting portion of the terminal 10 mounted on the terminal block T, and the terminal 10 The inner connection portion is configured by the socket terminal 20. Therefore, when the inner conductive member is connected to the inner end connection portion of the terminal 10, it is achieved by fitting the round pin terminal p to the mating socket terminal 20.
For example, compared with the case of connecting by bolting, it is sufficient to fit the round pin terminal p into the socket terminal 20, so that the connection work itself is simplified. Further, since a work space for bolt tightening can be made unnecessary, space saving is achieved, and for example, a motor case can be downsized.

In the present embodiment, the socket terminals 20 of the terminals 10 are individually accommodated in the sub-housing 60, while the sub-housings 60 are mounted on the housing 30 in a so-called floating structure so as to be movable in the radial direction. Yes. For example, when the inner conductive members, that is, the positions where the pin terminals p are arranged are varied, that is, when the misalignment is large, the individual round pin terminals p and the socket terminals 20 are accurately connected to each other while moving the sub housing 60. It becomes possible to fit by aligning the cores.
In particular, this is effective when the inner conductive member provided with the round pin terminal p has high rigidity and the inner conductive member itself has a limited amount of bending deformation.

However, there is no functional difference from the forward-facing posture.

In the third embodiment, the sub-housing 60 can be moved while deforming the flexible conductor 81 of the terminals 80, and similarly, the floating function can be more reliably exhibited.
When the inner and outer conductive members are connected via the terminal block T2 (terminal 80), the flexible conductor 81 provided in the terminal 80 functions as a vibration absorbing portion, and vibration acts on the inner conductive member or the outer conductive member. In this case, the vibration is absorbed by the flexible conductor 81, and the vibration is suppressed from reaching the opposite conductive member side.
