BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION

<First Embodiment> A first embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to FIGS. The connector according to the present embodiment includes a connector housing 10, a terminal 20 that can be inserted into and removed from the connector housing 10, and a retainer 30 that is attached to the connector housing 10 to secondarily lock the terminal 20 in an inserted state. It is composed. A cavity 11 is formed in the connector housing 10 in two upper and lower stages. The front end of the cavity 11 is a small receiving port 11A for allowing insertion of the counterpart terminal 20 (not shown),
The rear end of the cavity 11 is a terminal insertion opening 11B that is largely open for inserting the terminal 20. At a position slightly closer to the front end than the center of the cavity 11, a pair of primary regulating portions 12 projecting from the upper and lower surfaces thereof are provided.
Are formed. A lance 25 of a terminal 20, which will be described later, is engaged with the front surface of the primary regulating portion 12. A space in front of each primary regulating portion 12 is a jig insertion hole 13 which is opened at the front end surface of the connector housing 10 and allows the jig 40 to be inserted. At a substantially central position in the front-rear direction of the connector housing 10, a retainer accommodating hole 14 opening to the lower surface is formed.
The retainer accommodation hole 14 penetrates through the lower cavity 11 and opens at the lower surface of the upper cavity 11. The retainer 3 is inserted into the retainer accommodation hole 14.
0 is attached.

The terminal 20 has a rectangular cylindrical portion 21.
And an electric wire fixing portion 22 which continues rearward from the lower part of the lower surface plate and the lower part of the side surface plate of the cylindrical portion 21, and the electric wire 23 is crimped to the electric wire fixing portion 22. In the description of the present embodiment, regarding the posture of the terminal 20, the state of the terminal 20 housed in the upper cavity 11 of FIG. Inverted posture.

A pair of tongue pieces (contact portions, which are a component of the present invention) 24 are formed inside the cylindrical portion 21 by folding back portions of the upper and lower plates extending from the front edges thereof. A mating terminal (not shown) inserted into the cylindrical portion 21 is fitted between the pair of tongue pieces 24. The pair of tongue pieces 24 are formed to have shapes and arrangements that are inverted with respect to the axis of the terminal 20 in the insertion direction. Therefore, regardless of whether the terminal 20 is inserted in the normal posture or the reversed posture, the contact state such as the connection position and the contact pressure with the partner terminal becomes the same.

A lance (primary locking portion, which is a constituent element of the present invention) 25 is formed on the upper surface of the cylindrical portion 21 when the terminal 20 is in the normal posture by cutting a part of the cylindrical portion 21 outward (upward). ing. The lance 25 holds the connector housing 10 when the terminal 20 is properly inserted.
To the primary regulating portion 12 from the front. The lance 25 is not formed on the lower surface of the cylindrical portion 21.
When the terminal 20 is in the normal posture, a stabilizer is provided on the lower surface of the cylindrical portion 21 that projects downward along the left side surface when viewed from the front, and whose rear end coincides with the rear end of the cylindrical portion 21 (the present invention). Is formed as a secondary locking portion) 26. The stabilizer 26 has a function of stabilizing the insertion posture of the terminal 20 by moving along a guide groove (not shown) in the cavity 11. It also has a secondary locking function. Note that the stabilizer 26 is not formed on the upper surface side. A rear end edge on the lower surface side of the cylindrical portion 21 is a locking step portion (secondary locking portion, which is a component of the present invention) 27 that can be engaged with the retainer 30.

The retainer 30 can be accommodated in the retainer accommodating hole 14, and is selectively held by a not-shown locking means between a temporary locking position shown in FIG. 1 and a full locking position shown in FIG. The retainer 30 has a terminal through hole 31 aligned with the lower cavity 11, and a front edge of the lower surface of the terminal through hole 31 is engaged with the locking step 27 of the terminal 20 from the rear in the fully locked state. This is a secondary regulating portion 32L. The front edge of the upper surface of the terminal through-hole 31 serves as a secondary restricting portion 32U that engages with the stabilizer 26 of the terminal 20 from the rear in the fully locked state. The two secondary restricting portions 32L and 32U are retracted downward so as not to interfere with the locking step 27 and the stabilizer 26 when the retainer 30 is temporarily locked.

When the terminal 20 inserted into the connector housing 10 is removed, a jig (a terminal unlocking jig according to the present invention) 40 is used. The jig 40 includes a pair of upper and lower disengagement pieces 42 projecting bifurcated at the tip of the grip 41. The pair of disengagement pieces 42 are simultaneously inserted into the upper and lower jig insertion holes 13 of each cavity 11. Next, the operation of the present embodiment will be described. When assembling the connector of the present embodiment, first, the retainer 30 is temporarily locked to the connector housing 10 in advance, and the terminal 2 is
0 is inserted into the cavity 11 from behind. In the insertion process, the primary restricting portion 1 is temporarily elastically bent so that the lance 25 is flush with the outer surface (upper surface or lower surface) of the cylindrical portion 21.
2, the lance 25 elastically returns after passing through, and is engaged with the primary regulating portion 12 from the front. The terminal 20 is primarily locked by this engagement. In this primary locking state, the stabilizer 26 and the locking step 27 are positioned so as to be flush with the inner wall of the retainer housing hole 14.

Next, the retainer 30 is pushed up from the temporary locking position to the final locking position. Then, two upper and lower secondary regulation parts 3
The 2U and 32L respectively engage the stabilizer 26 of the upper terminal 20 and the locking step 27 of the lower terminal 20 from the rear, whereby the secondary locking state is established. Thus, the assembly is completed, and the terminal 20 is double-locked. When the terminal 20 is removed, first, the retainer 30 is moved from the final locking position to the temporary locking position, so that the secondary restricting portions 32L, 32U and the locking step 27 and the stabilizer 26 are secondarily locked. To release. Next, the jig 40
And the pair of disengagement pieces 42 are simultaneously inserted into the pair of jig insertion holes 13. Then, one of the disengagement pieces 42 engages with the lance 25 and resiliently deflects the lance 25 so as to be substantially flush with the outer surface of the cylindrical portion 21. The engagement with the part 12 is released. When the terminal 20 is pulled backward while maintaining the disengaged state by the jig 40, the lance 25
Will return elastically after passing through the primary regulation part 12 smoothly,
Thereafter, the terminal 20 is removed without any trouble.

As described above, in the present embodiment, a pair of tongue pieces 24 for connecting to the other terminal are provided in the terminal 20 in a vertically symmetrical manner, and the connector housing 10 is provided.
Since the primary regulating portions 12 for engaging the lances 25 are provided symmetrically in the vertical direction, the terminal 20 is primarily locked even if the terminal 20 is inserted in a different posture between the upper cavity 11 and the lower cavity 11. And the connection with the partner terminal 20 can be correctly performed. In addition, the secondary regulating portions 32L, 3 of the retainer 30
The terminal 20 can be double-locked by engaging 2U with the locking step 27 and the stabilizer 26.

In the present embodiment, the locking step 27, which is the secondary locking portion, and the stabilizer 26 are not in a reversed positional relationship about the axis of the terminal 20 in the insertion direction. The insertion posture of the terminal 20 at 11 can be reversed from that of the above embodiment. In this case, the retainer 30 of the present embodiment cannot be used as it is, but if another retainer having a secondary regulating portion corresponding to the insertion posture pattern of the terminal 20 is used,
The terminal 20 can be double-locked.

As the two secondary locking portions provided on the terminal 20, the cylindrical portion 21 for surrounding and protecting the tongue piece 24 and the stabilizer 26 for guiding the terminal 20 at the time of insertion are also used. As a result, the size and simplification of the terminal 20 can be reduced as compared with the case where a dedicated locking portion is provided as the secondary locking portion. Further, when the terminal 20 is removed, the disengagement operation by the pair of disengagement pieces 42 is performed simultaneously on both of the pair of primary restriction portions 12. The primary locking can be reliably released by operating the jig 40 without confirming which of the lances 25 is engaged. Of course, even when the lances 25 are provided on both the upper and lower sides and the primary locking is performed on both the upper and lower sides of the cylindrical portion 21, the primary locking on both sides can be reliably released by a single operation.

Second Embodiment Next, a second embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. In the present embodiment, the configuration of the terminal and the retainer in the first embodiment are partially different. Other configurations are the same as those in the first embodiment, and thus the same configurations are denoted by the same reference numerals, and description of the structures, operations, and effects is omitted. The terminal 50 according to the second embodiment has basically the same configuration as the terminal 20 according to the first embodiment. When the terminal 50 is in the normal posture, the stabilizer (also according to the present invention) is also provided on the upper surface side of the cylindrical portion 21 when viewed from the front. A secondary locking portion 26 which is a constituent requirement is provided. The stabilizer 26 on the upper surface side and the stabilizer 26 on the lower surface side have shapes and arrangements inverted from each other about an axis in the insertion direction of the terminal 50. Note that the secondary locking portion of the second embodiment is composed of only a pair of stabilizers 26, and a portion corresponding to the locking step portion 27 of the first embodiment is a secondary locking portion in the second embodiment. Does not work.

With the provision of the pair of stabilizers 26 in a reversed relationship with each other in the terminal 50 as the secondary locking portion, the height of the secondary regulating portion of the retainer 55 is increased by the retainer 30 of the first embodiment. The setting is different from the setting. That is, the secondary regulating portion 52U corresponding to the upper terminal 50 is set at a height which is substantially flush with the lower surface of the cavity 11 at the time of the final locking as in the first embodiment. In addition, as for the lower secondary regulation portion 52L, the secondary regulation portion 32L of the first embodiment has the locking step portion 2L.
Although the height is set so as to protrude into the cavity 11 at the time of final locking due to the engagement with the stabilizing member 7, the secondary restricting portion 52 </ b> L of the second embodiment relates to the stabilizer 26 protruding from the cylindrical portion 21. Therefore, it is set to be substantially flush with the lower surface of the cavity 11 at the time of final locking.

In the second embodiment, the terminal 50
A pair of tongue pieces 24 for connecting to a mating terminal (not shown) are provided symmetrically in the up and down direction.
The primary regulating portions 12 for engaging the lances 25 are vertically symmetrically provided. Further, the terminal 50 is provided with a pair of stabilizers 26 having a reversal relationship with each other as secondary locking portions. Are provided with the secondary regulating portions 52L and 52U which can be engaged with the stabilizer 26 of FIG. Therefore, even if the terminal 50 is inserted in any of the normal posture and the inverted posture regardless of the other cavities 11, the connection with the counterpart terminal can be correctly performed, and
The terminal 50 can be double-locked. Moreover,
Regardless of the combination pattern of the positions of the terminals 50 in the upper cavity 11 and the lower cavity 11, only one type of retainer 55 may be used, and a plurality of types of retainers may be used in accordance with the terminal insertion posture pattern. Need not be prepared.
