Hereinafter, an embodiment of a connector device will be described with reference to FIGS. In the following embodiments, a description will be made specifically for the connector device related to the LED lighting device, but the shape of the connector device in the present invention is not limited to that used for the LED lighting device, It can be used for connector devices for various other purposes.

本実施形態に示すコネクタ装置Ａは、電源回路側からの複数の配線が接続された第１コネクタ１０と、光源側からの配線が接続された第２コネクタ２０とを有し、第１コネクタ１０には、電流量の異なる複数の配線のそれぞれが接続された複数の第１接続部３０が設けられており、第２コネクタ２０には、第１コネクタ１０と第２コネクタ２０とを接続させた際に第１接続部３０に対応する箇所に第２接続部４０が設けられており、第１コネクタ１０と第２コネクタ２０とを接続することで、第１接続部３０と第２接続部４０が電気的接続するコネクタ装置において第２接続部４０は、光源側に通電され得る複数の通電用接続部５０を有しており、複数の通電用接続部５０のうちいずれかが光源側に通電されるものであることを特徴とするものである。以下、具体的に説明を行う。   The connector device A shown in the present embodiment includes a first connector 10 to which a plurality of wires from the power supply circuit side are connected, and a second connector 20 to which wires from the light source side are connected. Are provided with a plurality of first connection portions 30 to which a plurality of wirings having different current amounts are connected, and the first connector 10 and the second connector 20 are connected to the second connector 20. At this time, the second connection portion 40 is provided at a location corresponding to the first connection portion 30. By connecting the first connector 10 and the second connector 20, the first connection portion 30 and the second connection portion 40 are provided. The second connecting portion 40 has a plurality of energizing connection portions 50 that can be energized to the light source side, and one of the plurality of energizing connection portions 50 energizes the light source side. Also characterized by being It is. A specific description will be given below.

コネクタ装置Ａは、第１コネクタ１０と第２コネクタ２０とからなっており、それぞれの第１コネクタ１０と第２コネクタ２０とは電気的に接続されるような構造となっている。これら第１コネクタ１０と第２コネクタ２０とを接続させた際に、容易には抜け落ちないようストッパー９０が、第１コネクタ１０と第２コネクタ２０の任意の一辺に設けられている。   The connector device A includes a first connector 10 and a second connector 20, and each first connector 10 and second connector 20 are electrically connected. A stopper 90 is provided on any one side of the first connector 10 and the second connector 20 so that the first connector 10 and the second connector 20 are not easily detached when they are connected.

第１コネクタ１０には、電源回路側からの複数の配線が接続されており、その複数の配線のそれぞれには異なる電流量が通電されている。これらの複数の配線の通電先は、第１接続部３０である。図１では、第１コネクタ１０における第１接続部３０の反対側を視認することはできないが、第１接続部３０の裏側には、配線接続部１００があり、配線接続部１００に電源回路側からの配線を接続することで、第１接続部３０に電気的に通電する。   A plurality of wirings from the power supply circuit side are connected to the first connector 10, and different current amounts are supplied to the plurality of wirings. The energization destination of the plurality of wirings is the first connection unit 30. In FIG. 1, the opposite side of the first connector 10 in the first connector 10 cannot be visually recognized, but there is a wiring connection part 100 on the back side of the first connection part 30, and the wiring connection part 100 has a power supply circuit side. By connecting the wiring from the first connection portion 30, the first connection portion 30 is electrically energized.

また、図１では、第１コネクタ１０はジャック形状を採用している。しかし、ジャック形状に限定されるものではなく、プラグ形状であってもよい。   In FIG. 1, the first connector 10 adopts a jack shape. However, it is not limited to a jack shape, and may be a plug shape.

第２コネクタ２０には、ＬＥＤ光源側からの２本の配線が第２接続部４０に接続されている。ＬＥＤ光源側からの配線も、上述の電源回路側からの配線と同様、第２コネクタ２０の配線接続部１００に接続されており、配線接続部１００に配線を接続することで第２接続部４０と電気的に接続されることとなる。   Two wires from the LED light source side are connected to the second connector 20 in the second connector 20. The wiring from the LED light source side is also connected to the wiring connection portion 100 of the second connector 20 in the same manner as the wiring from the power supply circuit side described above. By connecting the wiring to the wiring connection portion 100, the second connection portion 40 is connected. Will be electrically connected.

また、この２本の配線のうち１本はニュートラル接続のための配線接続である。このニュートラル接続は、配線を行うにあたって欠かすことのできない配線である。また、同様に第１コネクタ１０側にもニュートラル接続が必ず１本必要であり、この第１コネクタ１０と第２コネクタ２０とを接続した際に、第１コネクタ１０側および第２コネクタ２０側の互いのニュートラル接続が同位置にくるよう配線されている。   One of the two wires is a wire connection for neutral connection. This neutral connection is indispensable for wiring. Similarly, one neutral connection is always required on the first connector 10 side, and when the first connector 10 and the second connector 20 are connected, the first connector 10 side and the second connector 20 side are also connected. They are wired so that their neutral connections are in the same position.

上記で示した、第１コネクタ１０および第２コネクタ２０は、いずれも絶縁材料で構成
されており、例えば樹脂材料などが考えられる。第１コネクタ１０および第２コネクタ２０が絶縁材料で構成されていることから、互いを手で保持することが可能であって、取付および取外しが可能となる。 The first connector 10 and the second connector 20 described above are both made of an insulating material, and for example, a resin material can be considered. Since the 1st connector 10 and the 2nd connector 20 are comprised with the insulating material, it is possible to hold | maintain each other by hand, and attachment and removal are attained.

続いて、第１コネクタ１０および第２コネクタ２０の特徴部分について説明を行う。上述の通り、第１コネクタ１０には、電源回路側より電流量の異なる配線が複数接続されている。その異なる電流量がそれぞれ通電された第１接続部３０には、第２コネクタ２０の第２接続部４０である複数の通電用接続部５０がそれぞれ接続されるようになっている。   Subsequently, characteristic portions of the first connector 10 and the second connector 20 will be described. As described above, the first connector 10 is connected with a plurality of wires having different current amounts from the power supply circuit side. A plurality of energization connection portions 50 that are the second connection portions 40 of the second connector 20 are connected to the first connection portions 30 to which the different current amounts are respectively energized.

すなわち、第２コネクタ２０の第２接続部４０には、それぞれ異なる電流量が通電されていることになるが、第２コネクタ２０には２本の配線のみが通電用接続部５０に接続されていることから、２本の配線のうち、１本をいずれの電流量が通電されている配線接続部１００に接続するかによって電流量を任意に選択することが可能となる。   That is, different current amounts are energized in the second connection portion 40 of the second connector 20, but only two wires are connected to the energization connection portion 50 in the second connector 20. Therefore, it is possible to arbitrarily select the amount of current depending on which of the two wires is connected to the wiring connection portion 100 to which one of the current amounts is energized.

これによって、光源側が要求する電力量に応じた電源回路を都度用意することなく、コネクタ装置Ａの配線のみで電流量を選択することが可能となる。すなわち、各種光源に応じた電源回路を全て用意する必要がないので、コスト低減につながる。   As a result, it is possible to select the amount of current only with the wiring of the connector device A without preparing a power supply circuit corresponding to the amount of power required by the light source. That is, it is not necessary to prepare all power supply circuits corresponding to various light sources, which leads to cost reduction.
