Description

本発明は、電気コネクタの保護構造に関する。 The present invention relates to a protective structure for an electrical connector.

従来、車両に搭載される電装品等に接続される電気コネクタは、互いにハーネスによって接続されている（例えば、特許文献１）。このようなハーネスは、車両の限られたスペースに配置される電装品等を接続するため、電気コネクタから折り返して配置される。この際に、ハーネスは、折り返された部分が自身の弾性復帰力によって電気コネクタから離れる方向に移動しようとする。 Conventionally, electrical connectors connected to electrical components and the like mounted on a vehicle are connected to each other by harnesses (for example, Patent Document 1). Such a harness is arranged by folding back from an electric connector in order to connect an electrical component or the like arranged in a limited space of a vehicle. At this time, the harness tends to move in the direction in which the folded portion is separated from the electric connector by its elastic restoring force.

これに対して、従来、ハーネスの折り返された部分をテープで巻き付けて固定することにより、ハーネスの折り返された部分の電気コネクタから離れる方向への移動を防いでいる。 On the other hand, conventionally, by wrapping the folded portion of the harness with tape and fixing it, the folded portion of the harness is prevented from moving in the direction away from the electric connector.

以下、図面を適宜参照して、本発明の実施の形態につき、詳細に説明する。 Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings as appropriate.

＜電気コネクタの保護構造の構成＞
本発明の実施の形態に係る電気コネクタの保護構造の構成につき、図１から図２を参照しながら、以下に詳細に説明する。 <Structure of protective structure of electrical connector>
The configuration of the protective structure of the electric connector according to the embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to FIGS. 1 to 2.

本実施の形態に係る電気コネクタの保護構造１は、ハーネス１０と、電気コネクタ２０と、保護部材３０と、を有している。 The electric connector protection structure 1 according to the present embodiment includes a harness 10, an electric connector 20, and a protective member 30.

ハーネス１０は、一端が電気コネクタ２０に接続されていると共に、他端が図示しない他の電気コネクタに接続されている。ハーネス１０は、電気コネクタ２０との接続部から折り返され、折り返し方向に延設されている。ハーネス１０は、電気コネクタ２０の外側面に沿って延設されている。 One end of the harness 10 is connected to the electric connector 20, and the other end is connected to another electric connector (not shown). The harness 10 is folded back from the connection portion with the electric connector 20 and extends in the folded-back direction. The harness 10 extends along the outer surface of the electrical connector 20.

電気コネクタ２０は、車両の電装品等に接続され、ハーネス１０と接続する後方接続部２１と、相手側コネクタに接続する嵌合部を有する前方接続部２２と、を備えている。 The electric connector 20 includes a rear connecting portion 21 that is connected to an electrical component of a vehicle and is connected to the harness 10, and a front connecting portion 22 that has a fitting portion that is connected to the mating connector.

保護部材３０は、電気コネクタ２０から折り返されるハーネス１０と電気コネクタ２０との外部の周囲に貼り付けられて、電気コネクタ２０及びハーネス１０に隙間が無いように密着し、かつ、電気コネクタ２０とハーネス１０とを固定している。保護部材３０は、展開した際に、電気コネクタ２０及びハーネス１０の外表面形状に沿った形状を有している。よって、電気コネクタ２０及びハーネス１０の外表面形状に沿って貼り付けられて、電気コネクタ２０及びハーネス１０に隙間なく密着することができる。保護部材３０は、電気コネクタ２０の後方接続部２１の前後方向の全体に密着すると共に、電気コネクタ２０の前方接続部２２の前端側を除いた部分に密着している。保護部材３０は、電気コネクタ２０とハーネス１０との接続構造により高い剛性を持たせるべく、例えば、伸びにくい布製であることが好ましい。伸びにくさの程度としては、ビニールよりも伸びにくいことが一つの指標となる。 The protective member 30 is attached to the outer periphery of the harness 10 and the electric connector 20 which are folded back from the electric connector 20, and is in close contact with the electric connector 20 and the harness 10 so that there is no gap between the electric connector 20 and the harness. 10 and is fixed. The protective member 30 has a shape that conforms to the outer surface shape of the electric connector 20 and the harness 10 when unfolded. Therefore, it can be attached along the outer surface shape of the electric connector 20 and the harness 10 and can be closely attached to the electric connector 20 and the harness 10 without a gap. The protective member 30 is in close contact with the entire rear connection portion 21 of the electric connector 20 in the front-rear direction, and is in close contact with a portion of the electric connector 20 other than the front end side of the front connection portion 22. The protective member 30 is preferably made of, for example, a non-stretchable cloth in order to give higher rigidity to the connection structure between the electric connector 20 and the harness 10. As for the degree of difficulty in stretching, one index is that it is harder to stretch than vinyl.

＜電気コネクタの保護方法＞
本発明の実施の形態に係る電気コネクタの保護方法につき、図１及び図２を参照しながら、以下に詳細に説明する。 <How to protect electrical connectors>
The method for protecting the electric connector according to the embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to FIGS. 1 and 2.

電気コネクタの保護構造１が設けられる車両の組み立て時又は点検時等において、作業者は、電気コネクタ２０の近くの作業スペースで作業を行う際に、ハーネス１０に接触して図１に示す矢印Ａ方向にストレスを加えた場合であっても、電気コネクタ２０は、保護部材３０で覆われていると共に、ハーネス１０と電気コネクタ２０とに密着して貼り付けられる保護部材３０によって高い剛性を得ることができるため、従来破損し易かった部分、例えばＨで示される部分の破損を防ぐことができる。 When assembling or inspecting a vehicle provided with the electric connector protection structure 1, the operator comes into contact with the harness 10 when working in the work space near the electric connector 20, and the arrow A shown in FIG. Even when stress is applied in the direction, the electric connector 20 is covered with the protective member 30, and the protective member 30 is attached in close contact with the harness 10 and the electric connector 20 to obtain high rigidity. Therefore, it is possible to prevent damage to a portion that has been easily damaged in the past, for example, a portion indicated by H.

また、ハーネス１０は、保護部材３０によって電気コネクタ２０と一体に覆われている。よって、折り曲げた部分がハーネス１０自身の弾性復帰力で元に戻ることを防ぐことができる。 Further, the harness 10 is integrally covered with the electric connector 20 by the protective member 30. Therefore, it is possible to prevent the bent portion from returning to its original state due to the elastic recovery force of the harness 10 itself.

このように、本実施の形態によれば、電気コネクタ２０から折り返されるハーネス１０と電気コネクタ２０との周囲に貼り付けられて密着する保護部材３０を設けることにより、電気コネクタ２０に接続されるハーネス１０を折り返して配置する場合に、電気コネクタ２０の剛性を高くすることにより、電気コネクタ２０の破損を防ぐことができる。 As described above, according to the present embodiment, the harness connected to the electric connector 20 by providing the protective member 30 which is attached and adheres to the periphery of the harness 10 folded back from the electric connector 20 and the electric connector 20. When the 10 is folded back and arranged, the electric connector 20 can be prevented from being damaged by increasing the rigidity of the electric connector 20.

また、本実施の形態によれば、保護部材３０を電気コネクタ２０及びハーネス１０の外表面形状に沿って貼り付けることにより、電気コネクタ２０の剛性を更に高くすることができる。 Further, according to the present embodiment, the rigidity of the electric connector 20 can be further increased by attaching the protective member 30 along the outer surface shapes of the electric connector 20 and the harness 10.

また、伸びにくい布製の部材によって保護部材３０を形成することにより、保護部材３０を電気コネクタ２０及びハーネス１０により密着させ、且つ、より剛性を得ることができる。 Further, by forming the protective member 30 from a member made of cloth which is difficult to stretch, the protective member 30 can be brought into close contact with the electric connector 20 and the harness 10 and more rigidity can be obtained.

なお、本発明は、部材の種類、配置、個数等は前述の実施の形態に限定されるものではなく、その構成要素を同等の作用効果を奏するものに適宜置換する等、発明の要旨を逸脱しない範囲で適宜変更可能であることはもちろんである。 It should be noted that the present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiment in terms of the type, arrangement, number, etc. of the members, and deviates from the gist of the invention, such as appropriately replacing the constituent elements with those having the same effect. Of course, it can be changed as appropriate as long as it is not.
