しかしながら、上記のように、一対の対向片の対向方向に締め付け具を締め付ける(横締めする)バッテリ端子は、バッテリポストの周囲の形状等により、接続作業を行いにくい場合がある。そこで、締め付け具を、嵌合部の軸方向と同方向に締め付ける(縦締めする)ことにより、バッテリポストに接続することが可能なバッテリ端子が望まれている。   However, as described above, the battery terminal that tightens (clamps laterally) the tightening tool in the facing direction of the pair of facing pieces may be difficult to perform the connection work due to the shape of the periphery of the battery post and the like. Therefore, there is a demand for a battery terminal that can be connected to the battery post by tightening the fastener in the same direction as the axial direction of the fitting portion (longitudinal fastening).

本発明は上記のような事情に基づいて完成されたものであって、締め付け具を縦締めしてバッテリポストに接続することが可能なバッテリ端子を提供することを目的とする。   This invention is completed based on the above situations, Comprising: It aims at providing the battery terminal which can fasten a fastener and can be connected to a battery post.

本発明のバッテリ端子は、バッテリポストに外嵌可能な筒状に形成された嵌合部と、前記嵌合部から径方向の外方に突出して、前記嵌合部の周方向に対向配置された一対の対向片と、前記対向片に設けられ、前記一対の対向片の対向方向とは反対方向に突出している突出部と、前記対向片の前記嵌合部の軸方向と同方向に隣接して配され、締め付け具によって前記同方向に締め付けられて前記同方向に変位するカム板部と、前記カム板部に設けられ、前記カム板部の変位に伴って前記突出部を前記一対の対向片が接近する方向に変位させる傾斜を有する傾斜部と、を備えている。   The battery terminal of the present invention has a fitting portion formed in a cylindrical shape that can be fitted onto the battery post, and protrudes radially outward from the fitting portion, and is opposed to the circumferential direction of the fitting portion. A pair of opposing pieces, a protrusion provided on the opposing piece and protruding in a direction opposite to the opposing direction of the pair of opposing pieces, and adjacent to the same direction as the axial direction of the fitting portion of the opposing piece A cam plate portion that is clamped in the same direction by a fastening tool and displaced in the same direction, and is provided on the cam plate portion, and the protrusions are connected to the pair of cam plates in accordance with the displacement of the cam plate portion. And an inclined portion having an inclination that is displaced in a direction in which the facing piece approaches.

本発明によれば、締め付け具を縦締めすると、カム板部が嵌合部の軸方向と同方向に変位し、それに伴って一対の対向片が接近する方向に変位し、嵌合部が縮径してバッテリポストに接続されるから、締め付け具を縦締めしてバッテリ端子をバッテリポストに接続することができる。   According to the present invention, when the fastening tool is vertically tightened, the cam plate portion is displaced in the same direction as the axial direction of the fitting portion, and accordingly, the pair of opposed pieces are displaced in the approaching direction, and the fitting portion is contracted. Since the diameter is connected to the battery post, the battery terminal can be connected to the battery post by vertically tightening the fastening tool.

上下の突出部16のうち対向片15の上側に位置する突出部16(以後、上側突出部16Uと称する)は、対向片15の上端縁部から斜め下外向きに傾斜している。上下の突出部16のうち対向片15の下側に位置する突出部16(以後、下側突出部16Sと称する)は、対向片15の下端縁部から斜め外上向きに傾斜している。   Of the upper and lower protrusions 16, the protrusion 16 (hereinafter referred to as the upper protrusion 16 </ b> U) located above the opposing piece 15 is inclined obliquely downward and outward from the upper end edge of the opposing piece 15. Of the upper and lower protrusions 16, a protrusion 16 (hereinafter referred to as a lower protrusion 16 </ b> S) located on the lower side of the opposing piece 15 is inclined obliquely outward and upward from the lower end edge of the opposing piece 15.

上下の突出部16U,16Sの先端同士は、各対向片15の上下方向における中心部で近接または当接している。対向片15および上下の突出部16U,16Sは、正面側から見ると、略三角形状に屈曲されている。   The tips of the upper and lower protrusions 16U and 16S are close to or in contact with each other at the center in the vertical direction of each facing piece 15. The opposing piece 15 and the upper and lower protrusions 16U and 16S are bent in a substantially triangular shape when viewed from the front side.

突出部16は、図5に示すように、各対向片15の概ね全幅(嵌合部14の径方向と同方向の幅)にわたって形成されている。各突出部16は、図4に示すように、幅寸法(嵌合部14の径方向と同方向の長さ寸法)が高さ方向の寸法よりも大きい略長方形の板状をなしている。   As shown in FIG. 5, the protruding portion 16 is formed over substantially the entire width of each facing piece 15 (the width in the same direction as the radial direction of the fitting portion 14). As shown in FIG. 4, each protrusion 16 has a substantially rectangular plate shape whose width dimension (length dimension in the same direction as the radial direction of the fitting part 14) is larger than the dimension in the height direction.

対向片15の上側および下側(嵌合部14の軸方向と同方向における両側)には、図2に示すように、カム板部20が隣接して備えられている。上下のカム板部20は、同形状とされている。カム板部20は、全体として板状をなし、端子本体部10の板厚寸法よりも大きい板厚寸法を有している。カム板部20は、図7に示すように、突出部16を含む一対の対向片15の全体を覆うことが可能な長方形状をなしている。   On the upper side and the lower side of the facing piece 15 (both sides in the same direction as the axial direction of the fitting portion 14), as shown in FIG. The upper and lower cam plate portions 20 have the same shape. The cam plate portion 20 has a plate shape as a whole, and has a plate thickness dimension larger than the plate thickness size of the terminal main body portion 10. As shown in FIG. 7, the cam plate portion 20 has a rectangular shape that can cover the entire pair of opposed pieces 15 including the protruding portion 16.

カム板部20は、図2に示すように、一対の対向片15の間に略水平に渡される水平部21と、水平部21の長手方向における両端部に設けられて斜め外側に傾斜している傾斜部22とを備えている。カム板部20は、長手方向(一対の対向片15の対向方向)に対称な形状をなしている。   As shown in FIG. 2, the cam plate portion 20 is provided at both ends of the horizontal portion 21 in the longitudinal direction of the horizontal portion 21 that extends substantially horizontally between the pair of opposed pieces 15, and is inclined obliquely outward. And an inclined portion 22. The cam plate portion 20 has a symmetrical shape in the longitudinal direction (the opposing direction of the pair of opposing pieces 15).

水平部21は、締め付け前の一対の対向片15の両方にわたる幅寸法を有している。水平部21の中心部には、ボルト31の軸部33を挿通可能な挿通孔23が、板厚方向に貫通形成されている。上下のカム板部20は、締め付け具30によって上下方向(嵌合部14の軸方向と同方向)に締め付けられることにより、上下方向(嵌合部14の軸方向と同方向)に変位するようになっている。   The horizontal portion 21 has a width dimension over both the pair of opposed pieces 15 before tightening. An insertion hole 23 through which the shaft portion 33 of the bolt 31 can be inserted is formed in the center portion of the horizontal portion 21 in the plate thickness direction. The upper and lower cam plate portions 20 are displaced in the vertical direction (the same direction as the axial direction of the fitting portion 14) by being tightened in the vertical direction (the same direction as the axial direction of the fitting portion 14) by the fastening tool 30. It has become.

傾斜部22は、カム板部20の変位に伴って突出部16を内方向(一対の対向片15が接近する方向)に変位させる傾斜を有している。傾斜部22の傾斜は、図2に示すように、内側面24に形成され、突出部16の外側面17に面接触するものとされている。傾斜部22の内側面24の傾斜と突出部16の外側面17の傾斜とは、同等の勾配とされている。   The inclined portion 22 has an inclination that displaces the protruding portion 16 inward (a direction in which the pair of opposed pieces 15 approach) in accordance with the displacement of the cam plate portion 20. As shown in FIG. 2, the inclined portion 22 is formed on the inner surface 24 and is in surface contact with the outer surface 17 of the protruding portion 16. The inclination of the inner surface 24 of the inclined portion 22 and the inclination of the outer surface 17 of the protruding portion 16 are equivalent to each other.

締め付け具30を締め付ける前の状態のバッテリ端子Tは、図2に示すように、カム板部20の傾斜部22が上側突出部16Uの上端部、および下側突出部16Sの下端部に当接し、カム板部20の水平部21が対向片15から離れた位置に保持されている。ボルト31の軸部33は、上下のカム板部20の挿通孔23を上下方向に貫通して一対の対向片15の間に位置している。ボルト31の頭部34は下側のカム板部20の下面に当接し、ナット32はボルト31の軸部33の先端に螺合して上側のカム板部20の上面に当接している。   As shown in FIG. 2, in the battery terminal T in a state before the tightening tool 30 is tightened, the inclined portion 22 of the cam plate portion 20 contacts the upper end portion of the upper protruding portion 16U and the lower end portion of the lower protruding portion 16S. The horizontal portion 21 of the cam plate portion 20 is held at a position away from the facing piece 15. The shaft portion 33 of the bolt 31 passes through the insertion hole 23 of the upper and lower cam plate portions 20 in the vertical direction and is positioned between the pair of opposed pieces 15. The head portion 34 of the bolt 31 is in contact with the lower surface of the lower cam plate portion 20, and the nut 32 is screwed into the tip of the shaft portion 33 of the bolt 31 and is in contact with the upper surface of the upper cam plate portion 20.

次に、バッテリ端子Tをバッテリポスト40に接続する作業の一例を説明する。
まず、バッテリ端子Tの嵌合部14をバッテリポスト40に嵌合する(図7参照)。嵌合部14は、バッテリポスト40の周りに若干の隙間をもって外嵌される。
Next, an example of an operation for connecting the battery terminal T to the battery post 40 will be described.
First, the fitting portion 14 of the battery terminal T is fitted to the battery post 40 (see FIG. 7). The fitting portion 14 is fitted around the battery post 40 with a slight gap.

次に、締め付け具30を締め付ける。ナット32をボルト31の軸周りに回転させると、ナット32が軸部33に対して相対的に下側(頭部34に接近する側)に変位する。ナット32および頭部34に押圧された上下のカム板部20は上下方向に互いに接近し、この際、上側のカム板部20の傾斜部22が対向片15の上側突出部16Uを下方に押圧し、下側のカム板部20の傾斜部22が対向片15の下側突出部16Sを上方に押圧する。傾斜部22によって押圧された上下の突出部16U,16Sは、傾斜部22の傾斜によって次第に内側に変位し、一対の対向片15が次第に接近する。一対の対向片15の間隔が狭まるにつれて、嵌合部14は縮径変形し、図9に示すように、バッテリポスト40に密着して十分に締め付けられて固定される。このとき、図8に示すように、上下のカム板部20の水平部21は、対向片15の上端および下端にそれぞれ当接している。また、上下のカム板部20の傾斜部22は、それぞれ上側突出部16Uおよび下側突出部16Sの高さ方向における中央部近傍にわたり当接している。
以上により、バッテリ端子Tをバッテリポスト40に接続する作業が完了する。
Next, the fastening tool 30 is fastened. When the nut 32 is rotated around the axis of the bolt 31, the nut 32 is displaced downward (side approaching the head 34) relative to the shaft portion 33. The upper and lower cam plate portions 20 pressed by the nut 32 and the head portion 34 approach each other in the vertical direction, and at this time, the inclined portion 22 of the upper cam plate portion 20 presses the upper protruding portion 16U of the opposing piece 15 downward. Then, the inclined portion 22 of the lower cam plate portion 20 presses the lower protruding portion 16S of the facing piece 15 upward. The upper and lower protrusions 16U and 16S pressed by the inclined portion 22 are gradually displaced inward by the inclination of the inclined portion 22, and the pair of opposed pieces 15 gradually approach. As the distance between the pair of opposed pieces 15 is reduced, the fitting portion 14 is deformed in diameter, and as shown in FIG. 9, the fitting portion 14 is in close contact with the battery post 40 and is sufficiently tightened and fixed. At this time, as shown in FIG. 8, the horizontal portions 21 of the upper and lower cam plate portions 20 are in contact with the upper end and the lower end of the facing piece 15, respectively. Further, the inclined portions 22 of the upper and lower cam plate portions 20 are in contact with each other in the vicinity of the central portion in the height direction of the upper protruding portion 16U and the lower protruding portion 16S.

The opposing piece 15 is provided with a protruding portion 16 that protrudes in a direction opposite to the opposing direction of the pair of opposing pieces 15. Further, above and below the facing piece 15 (in the same direction as the axial direction of the fitting portion 14), it is tightened in the vertical direction (the same direction as the axial direction of the fitting portion 14) by the fastening tool 30 and is moved up and down (fitted) A cam plate portion 20 that is displaced in the same direction as the axial direction of the joint portion 14 is disposed adjacently. The cam plate portion 20 is provided with an inclined portion 22 having an inclination that displaces the protruding portion 16 in a direction in which the pair of opposed pieces 15 approach as the cam plate portion 20 is displaced.

この構成によれば、締め付け具30を縦締めすると、カム板部20が上下方向(嵌合部14の軸方向と同方向)に変位し、それに伴って一対の対向片15が接近する方向に変位し、嵌合部14が縮径してバッテリポスト40に接続されるから、締め付け具30を縦締めしてバッテリ端子Tをバッテリポスト40に接続することができる。   According to this configuration, when the fastening tool 30 is vertically tightened, the cam plate portion 20 is displaced in the vertical direction (the same direction as the axial direction of the fitting portion 14), and accordingly, the pair of opposed pieces 15 approach each other. Since the fitting portion 14 is reduced in diameter and connected to the battery post 40, the fastener 30 can be vertically tightened to connect the battery terminal T to the battery post 40.

突出部16は、傾斜部22と同様に傾斜している。この構成によれば、突出部16と傾斜部22とが面あたりするので、バッテリ端子Tの接続作業をスムーズに行うことができる。   The protruding portion 16 is inclined similarly to the inclined portion 22. According to this configuration, since the projecting portion 16 and the inclined portion 22 come into contact with each other, the connection work of the battery terminal T can be performed smoothly.

また、突出部16が、対向片15の上下両端部(嵌合部14の軸方向と同方向における両端部)に設けられ、かつカム板部20が、対向片15の上下方向(嵌合部14の軸方向と同方向)における両側に備えられている。この構成によれば、嵌合部14の軸方向における両端部を締め付けて、バッテリポスト40に接続することができる。   Further, the protrusions 16 are provided at both upper and lower ends of the opposing piece 15 (both ends in the same direction as the axial direction of the fitting portion 14), and the cam plate 20 is provided in the vertical direction of the opposing piece 15 (fitting portion). 14 in the same direction as the axial direction). According to this configuration, both end portions in the axial direction of the fitting portion 14 can be tightened and connected to the battery post 40.

また、突出部16が、対向片15の上下方向(嵌合部14の軸方向と同方向)における端縁部から外方向(一対の対向片15の対向方向とは反対方向)に屈曲して形成される。この構成によれば、例えば対向片の一部を外側に叩き出したり切り起こしたりして突出部を形成する場合に比して、比較的容易に突出部16を形成することができる。   Further, the protruding portion 16 is bent outward from the end edge portion in the vertical direction of the facing piece 15 (the same direction as the axial direction of the fitting portion 14) (the direction opposite to the facing direction of the pair of facing pieces 15). It is formed. According to this configuration, for example, the protruding portion 16 can be formed relatively easily as compared with the case where the protruding portion is formed by knocking or cutting a part of the facing piece outward.

また、突出部16が、一対の対向片15の両方に設けられている。この構成によれば、一対の対向片15の両方がカム板部20によって押圧されるから、一方の対向片15のみが押圧される場合に比して、嵌合部14をバランスよく縮径変形させることができる。   Further, the protrusions 16 are provided on both the pair of opposed pieces 15. According to this configuration, since both of the pair of opposed pieces 15 are pressed by the cam plate portion 20, the fitting portion 14 is reduced in diameter with a better balance than when only one opposed piece 15 is pressed. Can be made.

<実施例2>
次に、本発明を具体化した実施例2に係るバッテリ端子50を図10〜図14によって説明する。
本実施例のバッテリ端子50は、一対の対向片15が、嵌合部14を間にして電線接続部18と90度異なる側に位置している点で、実施例1とは相違する。なお、実施例1と同様の構成には同一符号を付して重複する説明を省略する。
<Example 2>
Next, the battery terminal 50 which concerns on Example 2 which actualized this invention is demonstrated with reference to FIGS.
The battery terminal 50 of the present embodiment is different from that of the first embodiment in that the pair of opposed pieces 15 are located on a side that is 90 degrees different from the wire connecting portion 18 with the fitting portion 14 therebetween. In addition, the same code | symbol is attached | subjected to the structure similar to Example 1, and the overlapping description is abbreviate | omitted.

本実施例に係るバッテリ端子50は、実施例1と同様に、バッテリポスト40に外嵌可能な嵌合部14と、嵌合部14から径方向の外方に突出して設けられた一対の対向片15と、を有し、一対の対向片15には、外方向に突出して突出部16が設けられている。また、実施例1と同様、締め付け具30によって上下方向に締め付けられて上下方向に変位するカム板部20が、一対の対向片15の上下両側に備えられ、カム板部20には、カム板部20の変位に伴って突出部16を内方向に変位させる傾斜を有する傾斜部22が備えられている。   Similarly to the first embodiment, the battery terminal 50 according to the present embodiment includes a fitting portion 14 that can be fitted onto the battery post 40 and a pair of opposing surfaces that project outward from the fitting portion 14 in the radial direction. The pair of opposed pieces 15 has a protruding portion 16 that protrudes outward. Similarly to the first embodiment, cam plate portions 20 that are fastened in the vertical direction by the fastening tool 30 and displaced in the vertical direction are provided on both the upper and lower sides of the pair of opposed pieces 15. An inclined portion 22 having an inclination that displaces the protruding portion 16 inward in accordance with the displacement of the portion 20 is provided.
