Description

本発明は、たとえば光成端箱内等において、光ケーブルのテンションメンバを固定するためのテンションメンバ固定具に関するものである。 The present invention relates to a tension member fixing tool for fixing a tension member of an optical cable, for example, in an optical termination box.

従来、テンションメンバ固定具としては種々のものが考案されており、たとえば特許文献１に開示されているようなものが知られている。これは、切り欠き孔内を挿通させたテンションメンバに対し、その上方からネジをねじ込み、該ネジの先端部によりテンションメンバを孔の下面に押し付ける、すなわちネジの先端面と切り欠き孔の内面とで挟み込むことによってテンションメンバを固定可能としている。 Conventionally, various tension member fixtures have been devised, and for example, those disclosed in Patent Document 1 are known. This is because a screw is screwed into the tension member inserted through the notch hole from above, and the tension member is pressed against the lower surface of the hole by the tip of the screw, that is, the tip surface of the screw and the inner surface of the notch hole The tension member can be fixed by sandwiching between the two.

The flange portions 14 and 14 are bent in the direction, and each flange portion 14 has a fixing hole 15 for screwing the base member 11 to the inner surface of the optical termination box. . The fixed portion 13 includes a pair of wall portions 13a and 13a bent upward in an opposing manner and a ceiling portion 13b that connects between the upper ends of the wall portions 13a and 13a. A slit 16 is provided at a substantially central position across the entire area in the front-rear direction of the ceiling portion 13b. The top surfaces (end surfaces of the wall portions) of the wall portions 13a and 13a exposed in the slit 16 are formed as concave surfaces 17 and 17 that are recessed downward in an inverted triangular shape when viewed from the front. In addition, screw holes 18 and 18 for attaching the pressing member 12 to the base member 11 are provided on both the left and right sides of the ceiling portion 13b with the slit 16 interposed therebetween.

一方、押さえ部材１２は、前後方向に長い帯状の金属板を上方に開口する略コ字状に折り曲げてなるものであって、対向状に上方へ曲げ起こされた一対の壁部１９、１９と壁部１９、１９同士の下端間をつなぐ底部２０とを有している。そして、各壁部１９の下端縁における左右方向での略中央位置からは、押さえ爪２１が下方へ突設されている。各押さえ爪２１は、底部２０をコ字状に切り欠いて形成された舌片を下方へ曲げ起こすことによって成形されており、押さえ爪２１の先端面（下面）は、上方へ正面視三角形状に凹む凹面状の押さえ面２２とされている。また、底部２０の左右両側部で、押さえ爪２１、２１を成形したことにより形成されたスリット２３を挟んだ位置には、押さえ部材１２を基礎部材１１に取り付けるための取付孔２４、２４が設けられている。尚、押さえ爪２１の左右方向での幅は、スリット１６の左右幅以下となっており、基礎部材１１に取り付けられた押さえ部材１２を基礎部材１１側へ近づけた際、押さえ爪２１の先端部は、スリット１６内へ嵌入して凹面１７に近接可能となっている。 On the other hand, the pressing member 12 is formed by bending a strip-shaped metal plate that is long in the front-rear direction into a substantially U-shape that opens upward, and a pair of wall portions 19, 19 that are bent upward in an opposing manner, It has the bottom part 20 which connects between the lower ends of wall parts 19 and 19 mutually. A pressing claw 21 projects downward from a substantially central position in the left-right direction at the lower edge of each wall portion 19. Each presser claw 21 is formed by bending downward a tongue piece formed by cutting out the bottom portion 20 in a U shape, and the front end surface (lower surface) of the presser claw 21 is triangular in a front view. The concave pressing surface 22 is recessed. In addition, mounting holes 24 and 24 for attaching the pressing member 12 to the base member 11 are provided at positions sandwiching a slit 23 formed by molding the pressing claws 21 and 21 on the left and right sides of the bottom portion 20. It has been. Note that the width in the left-right direction of the presser claw 21 is equal to or smaller than the left-right width of the slit 16, and when the presser member 12 attached to the base member 11 is brought closer to the base member 11 side, the distal end portion of the presser claw 21 Can be inserted into the slit 16 and close to the concave surface 17.

ここで、上記基礎部材１１と押さえ部材１２とからなるテンションメンバ固定具１を用いて、テンションメンバ２を固定する方法について説明する。
まず、基礎部材１１の天井部１３ｂに対し、押さえ用ネジ３２、３２を取付孔２４、２４を介してネジ孔１８、１８へと螺入させることにより、基礎部材１１の上方から押さえ部材１２を基礎部材１１に対してスライド可能に取り付けて、テンションメンバ固定具１を組み立てる。このとき、基礎部材１１と押さえ部材１２との間には十分な間隔を空けておく。次に、固定孔１５、１５へ固定ネジ３１、３１を挿通させて、テンションメンバ固定具１を光成端箱内の所定の位置に固定する。 Here, a method for fixing the tension member 2 using the tension member fixture 1 composed of the base member 11 and the pressing member 12 will be described.
First, the pressing member 12 is screwed from above the base member 11 by screwing the pressing screws 32, 32 into the screw holes 18, 18 through the mounting holes 24, 24 to the ceiling portion 13 b of the base member 11. The tension member fixture 1 is assembled by slidably attaching to the base member 11. At this time, a sufficient space is provided between the base member 11 and the pressing member 12. Next, fixing screws 31 and 31 are inserted into the fixing holes 15 and 15 to fix the tension member fixture 1 at a predetermined position in the optical termination box.

そして、上述したように固定された状態にあるテンションメンバ固定具１に対し、光ケーブルの終端においてケーブル本体から引き出したテンションメンバ２を、前後方向において基礎部材１１と押さえ部材１２との間に挿通させ、壁部１３ａ、１３ａに架け渡してスリット１６内の凹面１７、１７上に載置する。それから、押さえ用ネジ３２、３２を更に螺入させることにより、押さえ部材１２を基礎部材１１側へスライドさせ、各押さえ爪２１の押さえ面２２と凹面１７とでテンションメンバ２を挟み込めば、テンションメンバ２はテンションメンバ固定具１に固定される。 Then, the tension member 2 pulled out from the cable body at the end of the optical cable is inserted between the base member 11 and the pressing member 12 in the front-rear direction with respect to the tension member fixture 1 fixed as described above. Then, it is placed on the concave surfaces 17 and 17 in the slit 16 across the wall portions 13a and 13a. Then, by further screwing the pressing screws 32, 32, the pressing member 12 is slid toward the base member 11, and the tension member 2 is sandwiched between the pressing surface 22 and the concave surface 17 of each pressing claw 21. The member 2 is fixed to the tension member fixture 1.

以上のような構成を有するテンションメンバ固定具１によれば、基礎部材１１の上方に押さえ部材１２をスライド可能に取り付けており、基礎部材１１上に載置されたテンションメンバ２を、基礎部材１１と基礎部材１１側へスライドさせた押さえ部材１２とにより挟み込んで固定可能としている。そのため、テンションメンバ２を固定するに際して、従来の如くネジの回転方向への負荷がテンションメンバ２にかかったりすることがなく、テンションメンバ２がほつれたりしない。したがって、テンションメンバ２を固定した状態の外観がよい上、ほつれたことにより固定が緩んでしまう等といった事態の発生を防止することができる。 According to the tension member fixture 1 having the above-described configuration, the pressing member 12 is slidably attached above the base member 11, and the tension member 2 placed on the base member 11 is attached to the base member 11. And the holding member 12 slid to the base member 11 side so as to be fixed. Therefore, when the tension member 2 is fixed, the load in the rotational direction of the screw is not applied to the tension member 2 as in the prior art, and the tension member 2 is not frayed. Therefore, the appearance of the state in which the tension member 2 is fixed is good, and the occurrence of a situation such as loosening due to fraying can be prevented.

また、基礎部材１１の天井部１３ｂに、前後方向で天井部１３ｂの全域にわたりスリット１６を設けるとともに、スリット１６内に露出する壁部１３ａ、１３ａの頂面を、下方へ正面視逆三角形状に凹む凹面１７、１７としており、スリット１６内へ嵌入させて凹面１７、１７上へ載置した状態にあるテンションメンバ２を押さえ爪２１の先端面と凹面１７、１７とで挟み込んで固定するように構成している。したがって、スリット１６や凹面１７によって、押さえ爪２１により押さえ付けられたことで変形したテンションメンバ２が押さえ爪２１の先端面から左右へ大きくはみ出してしまう事態を防止することができ、固定時における外観の向上やはみ出したことによる緩み防止等の効果を一層顕著に発揮することができる。
さらに、折り曲げ加工により基礎部材１１や押さえ部材１２を成形するとともに、上述の如くして凹面１７を設けたり、底部２０をコ字状に切り欠いて形成された舌片を下方へ曲げ起こすことによって押さえ爪２１を成形しているため、基礎部材１１や押さえ部材１２を容易且つ安価に製造することができる。
加えて、押さえ爪２１の先端面を上方へ正面視三角形状に凹む押さえ面２２としているため、一般的に周面が円周曲面であるテンションメンバ２を４点で挟み込んで固定することができ、従来よりも固定を安定且つ確実なものとすることができる。 Further, the slit 16 is provided in the ceiling portion 13b of the base member 11 over the entire area of the ceiling portion 13b in the front-rear direction, and the top surfaces of the wall portions 13a and 13a exposed in the slit 16 are formed in an inverted triangular shape when viewed from the front. The concave surfaces 17 and 17 are recessed, and the tension member 2 that is fitted into the slit 16 and placed on the concave surfaces 17 and 17 is fixed by being sandwiched between the tip surface of the pressing claw 21 and the concave surfaces 17 and 17. It is composed. Therefore, it is possible to prevent the tension member 2 deformed by being pressed by the pressing claw 21 by the slit 16 or the concave surface 17 from greatly protruding to the left and right from the front end surface of the pressing claw 21, and the appearance when fixed. The effect of preventing the loosening due to the improvement of the protrusion and the protrusion can be exhibited more remarkably.
Further, the base member 11 and the pressing member 12 are formed by bending, and the concave surface 17 is provided as described above, or the tongue piece formed by cutting the bottom portion 20 into a U shape is bent downward. Since the pressing claw 21 is formed, the base member 11 and the pressing member 12 can be manufactured easily and inexpensively.
In addition, since the front end surface of the pressing claw 21 is a pressing surface 22 that is recessed upward in a triangular shape when viewed from the front, the tension member 2 whose circumferential surface is generally a circumferential curved surface can be sandwiched and fixed at four points. Thus, the fixing can be made more stable and reliable than in the past.

なお、本発明に係るテンションメンバ固定具は、上記実施形態の態様に何ら限定されるものではなく、基礎部材や押さえ部材の構成について、必要に応じて適宜変更することができる。 The tension member fixture according to the present invention is not limited to the embodiment described above, and the configuration of the foundation member and the pressing member can be appropriately changed as necessary.

たとえば、小径のテンションメンバ３２を固定するために、図５に示すようなテンションメンバ固定具３１としてもよい。すなわち、テンションメンバ固定具３１では、スリット１６内に露出した壁部１３ａ、１３ａの頂面全面を凹面１７とするかわりに、頂面の中央部にテンションメンバ３２の周面の一部が嵌入可能な凹溝３３を形成している。また、押さえ爪２１の先端面全面を押さえ面２２とするかわりに、先端面の中央部にテンションメンバ３２の周面の一部が嵌入可能な押さえ溝３４を形成している。該構成を採用することにより、小径なテンションメンバ３２であっても、ほつれさせたりすることなく確実に固定することができる。尚、図５において、上記実施形態と同じ構成要素については、同じ符号を付している。 For example, a tension member fixing tool 31 as shown in FIG. 5 may be used to fix the small diameter tension member 32. That is, in the tension member fixing tool 31, a part of the peripheral surface of the tension member 32 can be fitted into the center of the top surface instead of the concave surface 17 on the entire top surface of the wall portions 13 a and 13 a exposed in the slit 16. A concave groove 33 is formed. Further, instead of using the entire front end surface of the pressing claw 21 as the pressing surface 22, a pressing groove 34 into which a part of the peripheral surface of the tension member 32 can be fitted is formed at the center of the front end surface. By adopting this configuration, even a small diameter tension member 32 can be reliably fixed without fraying. In FIG. 5, the same components as those in the above embodiment are given the same reference numerals.

また、上記実施形態では、テンションメンバ固定具１を光成端箱内に固定するにあたってネジ止めするように構成している（すなわち、フランジ部１４や固定孔１５を設けている）が、テンションメンバ固定具１の固定に係る構成は適宜変更可能であって、基礎部材にテンションメンバ固定具１を固定するための係止爪を設ける等の構成を採用しても何ら問題はない。
さらに、テンションメンバ２を固定するに際して、上記実施形態ではテンションメンバ固定具１を組み立てて、光成端箱内へ固定した後に、テンションメンバ２を基礎部材１１上に載置するという方法を採用しているが、まず基礎部材１１のみを光成端箱内へ固定し、該基礎部材１１上にテンションメンバ２を載置した後に、押さえ部材１２を基礎部材１１に取り付ける（テンションメンバ固定具１を組み立てながらテンションメンバ２を固定する）ようにしてもよい。 In the above-described embodiment, the tension member fixing tool 1 is configured to be screwed (that is, the flange portion 14 and the fixing hole 15 are provided) when the tension member fixing tool 1 is fixed in the optical termination box. The configuration related to the fixing of the fixing device 1 can be changed as appropriate, and there is no problem even if a configuration such as providing a locking claw for fixing the tension member fixing device 1 to the base member is adopted.
Furthermore, when the tension member 2 is fixed, the above embodiment employs a method in which the tension member 2 is assembled on the optical termination box and then the tension member 2 is placed on the base member 11. First, only the base member 11 is fixed in the optical termination box, and after the tension member 2 is placed on the base member 11, the pressing member 12 is attached to the base member 11 (the tension member fixture 1 is attached). The tension member 2 may be fixed during assembly).

さらにまた、上記実施形態では、基礎部材１１にスリット１６及び凹面１７を、押さえ部材１２側に押さえ爪２１を夫々設けているが、該形態とは逆に、基礎部材１１の天井部１３ｂに上方へ突出する押さえ爪を、押さえ部材１２の底部２０にスリット及び上方へ凹む凹面を夫々形成し、押さえ爪の先端と凹面とでテンションメンバを挟み込んで固定するように構成することも可能である。
またさらに、上記実施形態では押さえ用ネジ３２、３２を螺入させることによりスライドさせる構成を採用しているものの、該スライドに係る構成についてもそのような構成に何ら限定されることはなく、柱状のガイド突起を基礎部材又は押さえ部材の何れか一方に突設し、他方にガイド突起を挿通可能なガイド孔を穿設するとともに、バネ等の付勢手段により押さえ部材を基礎部材側へ付勢するような他の構成を採用することも可能である。
加えて、本発明に係るテンションメンバ固定具を利用して、光ケーブルのケーブル本体を固定することも可能である。 Furthermore, in the above embodiment, the slit 16 and the concave surface 17 are provided in the base member 11 and the presser claw 21 is provided on the presser member 12 side. It is also possible to form the presser claw protruding to the bottom portion 20 of the presser member 12 with a slit and a concave surface recessed upward, and to fix the tension member between the tip and the concave surface of the presser claw.
Furthermore, although the above embodiment adopts a configuration in which the holding screws 32, 32 are slid by screwing, the configuration related to the slide is not limited to such a configuration. The guide protrusion is projected on either the base member or the pressing member, and a guide hole into which the guide protrusion can be inserted is formed on the other, and the pressing member is biased toward the base member by a biasing means such as a spring. It is also possible to adopt other configurations as described above.
