  Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

  FIG. 1 is a diagram showing a wiring cover connector according to the present embodiment. FIG. 2 is a diagram for explaining a part of FIG. 1 in detail.

  FIG. 1 shows, as an example, a state in which wiring covers 200A and 200B (collectively referred to simply as a wiring cover) arranged over a wall 1000 are connected linearly.

  As shown in FIG. 2, each of the wiring covers 200 </ b> A and 200 </ b> B includes a rail portion 201 and a lid portion 202 that covers the rail portion 201. The rail portion 201 is formed in a bowl shape with two side plates 2011 and one bottom plate 2012. The bottom plate 2012 is formed with a hole 201A for preventing detachment. The hole 201A is opened at the time of manufacturing the wiring cover or at the enforcement site.

  The connection base 1 connects the wiring cover 200A and the wiring cover 200B. The connection portion lid 2 covers the connection base 1 and covers the gap between the wiring covers 200A and 200B. The material of the connection base 1 and the connection portion lid 2 is, for example, plastic.

  The connection base 1 is formed with an attachment portion 11A that protrudes in the direction of attaching the wiring cover 200A and an attachment portion 11B that protrudes in the direction of attaching the wiring cover 200B.

  Here, the two attachment portions are provided in opposite directions, but the attachment portions may form 90 °, for example. In other words, it may be a mouse or a rhythm. Moreover, the number of attachment parts may be three or more. For example, three attachment portions may be provided to have a T shape. Moreover, it is good also as a cross shape by providing four attaching parts. Moreover, it is good also as providing many attachment parts and making it radial.

  Further, the connection base 1 may be provided with a screw through hole 13 for fixing the connection base 1 to the wall 1000.

  Each of the attachment portions 11 </ b> A and 11 </ b> B includes a bottom piece 111 arranged along the bottom plate 2012 and a side piece 112 arranged along each side plate 2011.

  When the bottom piece 111 is divided into a peripheral portion 111A and a central portion 111B other than the peripheral portion 111A, the central portion 111B is connected to a base 111AA that is a portion connected to the connection base 1 in the peripheral portion 111A. The small bottom piece is configured by being separated from other than the base 111AA. That is, the bottom piece 111 has a clip shape for holding a document or the like.

  The small bottom piece, that is, the central portion 111B has elasticity, and the tip of the small bottom piece (111B) has a convex portion 111BA fitted into the hole 201A.

  Here, in order to make it difficult for the wiring cover 200A and the attachment portion 11A to come off, a protrusion 111BA for fitting into the hole 201A is provided at the tip of the small bottom piece (111B), but the wiring cover is short. In the case where it is difficult to remove from the beginning, the convex portion 111BA may not be provided.

(Wiring cover connection method)
The wiring cover 200A is attached to the attachment portion 11A, and the wiring cover 200B is attached to the attachment portion 11B.

  Specifically, the two side pieces 112 of the attachment portion 11A are slid and arranged inside the side plate 2011 of the wiring cover 200A, and the bottom piece 111 is slid and arranged outside the bottom plate 2012. That is, the rail portion 201 is sandwiched between the side pieces 112 and the bottom piece 111. Thereby, it can prevent that the rail part 201 remove | deviates from 11 A of attachment parts.

  When attaching the wiring cover 200A to the attachment portion 11A, the central portion 111B is elastically bent outward and the convex portion 111BA is fitted into the hole 201A from the outside. This increases the effect of preventing detachment. Moreover, the effect that the rail part 201 can be easily engage | inserted with respect to an attaching part by giving elasticity to the center part 111B is also acquired.

  The lid portion 202 is slid and fitted into the rail portion 201. Similarly, the wiring cover 200B is also attached to the attachment portion 11B.

  Here, the side piece 112 is arranged inside the rail part 201 and the bottom piece 111 is arranged outside the rail part 201, but the side piece 112 is arranged outside the rail part 201. The bottom piece 111 may be arranged inside the rail portion 201.

  Further, the bottom piece 111 may be configured as follows. That is, the bottom piece 111 may not be clipped, but the bottom piece 111 may be elastic, and the convex portion 111BA may be provided at the tip of the bottom piece 111. Even with such a configuration, the rail portion 201 can be prevented from being detached from the attachment portion 11A by the same action as the clip-shaped bottom piece 111.

  The connecting portion cover 2 is placed over the end portion of the rail portion 201 of the wiring cover 200A and the end portion of the rail portion 201 of the wiring cover 200B, thereby covering the gap between the wiring covers 200A and 200B. At this time, the end surface 2021 of the lid portion 202 abuts on the end surface 21 of the connection portion lid 2. Moreover, the hook 22 of the connection part lid | cover 2 is hooked on the hook 12 of the connection base 1, and prevents removal.

  In this way, the wiring covers 200 </ b> A and 200 </ b> B can be connected to each other by the connection base 1 and the connection portion lid 2.

  At the time of wiring, for example, the connecting portion lid 2 is once removed, the wiring 300 is guided into the wiring covers 200A and 200B, and the connecting portion lid 2 is attached again. The connection cover 2 can prevent the wiring 300 from being exposed and foreign matter from entering the wiring cover. Note that the wiring 300 may be passed from one wiring cover to the other wiring cover via the connection base 1 with the connection portion lid 2 attached.

(Modification)
FIG. 3 is a diagram illustrating a configuration of the connection portion lid 3 having a shape different from that of the connection portion lid 2. Here, the difference with the connection part lid | cover 2 is demonstrated.

  The connection lid 3 is formed with a wiring lead-out pipe 31A for leading the wiring 300 drawn out from the gap between the wiring covers 200A and 200B to the outside. Accordingly, the direction of the wiring 300 can be changed, for example, through the pipe P connected to the wiring outlet pipe 31A.

  For example, it is possible to employ a usage method in which the connection portion lid 2 is initially used and replaced with the connection portion lid 3 when necessary. The reverse is also possible.

  As shown in FIG. 4, the wiring lead-out tube 31 </ b> A can be divided into two from the distal end portion 311 from which the wiring 300 is drawn. By hooking the hook 32 into the hook hole 33, the divided wiring lead-out pipe 31A is integrated (FIG. 5), and when removed, the wiring lead-out pipe 31A is divided.

  Since the wiring lead-out pipe 31A can be divided, a special mechanism for connecting the pipe P is not required, and the pipe P can be simply sandwiched and attached.

  Further, if it is impossible to divide from the tip portion 311, the wiring lead-out pipe 31 </ b> A cannot be attached after the wiring 300 is passed through the pipe P. That is, the wiring 300 has to be pulled out from the pipe P, passed through the opening of the tip 311, and then passed through the pipe P again.

  However, the wiring lead-out pipe 31A that can be divided from the tip 311 only needs to sandwich the wiring 300, so that the wiring 300 does not have to be pulled out from the pipe P, that is, after the wiring 300 is passed through the pipe P. But it can be attached.

Alternatively, when wiring is laid using the wiring lead-out pipe 31A, a new wiring is required in another direction, and the case where it is necessary to replace the wiring lead-out pipe 31B as described later can be divided. The structure can be easily replaced. Further, on the inner peripheral surface of the tip portion 311, a flange 3111 that fits into the groove P <b> 1 formed on the outer peripheral surface of the pipe P is formed. Thereby, it is possible to prevent the pipe P from coming off from the tip 311.

  Next, a wiring lead-out pipe 31B having a shape different from that of the wiring lead-out pipe 31A will be described with reference to FIGS. Here, a difference from the wiring lead-out tube 31A will be described.

  The wiring lead-out tube 31B is formed so as to cross the connection portion lid 3 in a three-dimensional manner. For example, when the wiring lead-out pipe 31B is formed so as to intersect the connection portion lid 3 in a plane, the wiring 300A shown in FIG. However, by crossing three-dimensionally, the wiring 300A does not rub against the wiring 300B strongly, and can easily pass through the pipe P.

  In addition, as shown in FIG. 8, the wiring lead-out tube 31 </ b> B can be divided into two from the distal end portion 311 from which the wiring 300 is drawn. By hooking each hook 32B to the corresponding recess 33B, the divided wiring lead-out pipe 31B is integrated, and when removed, the wiring lead-out pipe 31B is split.

  The distal end portion 311 of the wiring lead-out tube 31B is initially closed with a lid 311F. For example, the tip 311 is opened by cutting off the lid 311F of the tip 311 to which the pipe P is connected by inserting a blade into the groove 311G. Thereby, the pipe P can be connected.

  Conversely, the tip 311 not connected to the pipe P can be kept closed, that is, the exposure of the wiring and the entry of foreign matter can be prevented.

  Note that the wiring lead-out pipe 31B has a structure in which two pipes P can be connected, but only one of them may be connected. For example, one end portion 311 may be closed without providing a lid.

  By such a use form, for example, when it becomes necessary to wire in the direction of the tip portion 311 in the direction opposite to the one to which the pipe P is connected later, by opening the closed tip portion 311, Wiring in the reverse direction can be easily performed.

  As described above, according to the wiring cover connector of the present embodiment, it is possible to connect the wiring covers without performing construction on a construction surface such as a wall and fixing the wiring cover to the construction surface. That is, the wiring covers can be connected even if the construction surface has irregularities.

  Further, since the wiring cover connector is integrated with the wiring cover, as shown in FIG. 2, the wiring cover is attached to the construction surface by fixing the connection cover to the construction surface (wall) with a screw through hole 13 or the like. You can also.

  However, since construction on the construction surface is basically unnecessary, the work of attaching the wiring cover can be saved, and the wiring cover can be attached at a position away from the construction surface. Moreover, it can prevent that the beauty | look is impaired by the construction to a construction surface.

  Further, basically, since construction on the construction surface is unnecessary, processing such as the screw through hole 13 shown in FIG. 2 can be minimized.

  In addition, since the wiring cover connector is composed of the connection base and the connection portion lid, the connection portion lid can be opened and closed, so that wiring is easy and expansion, removal, and maintenance can be easily performed.

  In addition, although the wiring cover connector of this Embodiment has a big effect in the outdoors use, the convenience of indoor wiring can be improved by using it indoors.
