以下では、図面を参照しながら、本発明に係る各実施例について説明する。
<第一実施例>
図1乃至図4を参照して、本実施例に係る車両搭載用筐体1を説明する。本実施例の車両搭載用筐体1は、車両内に取り付けられる電気接続箱1である。電気接続箱1は、ケーブル等を介して車両内の電源や車載電装品(いずれも図示せず)と内部に有する回路基板とを接続する。なお、回路基板上に搭載される電子部品は、図においては省略する。電気接続箱1は、車内のセンターコンソール、ドア、エンジンルームなどいずれの箇所にも取り付けられることが可能である。車内のセンターコンソールに設置される電気接続箱は、運転者等が飲み物をこぼしたりした際に耐被水性が必要であり、ドアに設置される電気接続箱は、雨天の際にドアを開けた場合に雨が当たるため耐被水性が必要であり、エンジンルームに設置される電気接続箱は、雨天の走行中に水分が侵入することがあるので耐被水性が必要となる。
Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.
<First Example>
With reference to FIG. 1 thru | or FIG. 4, the housing | casing 1 for vehicle mounting concerning a present Example is demonstrated. The vehicle mounting housing 1 of the present embodiment is an electrical connection box 1 that is mounted in the vehicle. The electrical junction box 1 connects a power source in the vehicle and on-vehicle electrical components (both not shown) and a circuit board included therein via a cable or the like. Note that electronic components mounted on the circuit board are omitted in the figure. The electrical junction box 1 can be attached to any location such as a center console, a door, and an engine room in the vehicle. The electrical junction box installed on the center console in the car needs to be waterproof when the driver spills a drink, and the electrical junction box installed on the door opened the door when it rained In such a case, it is necessary to have moisture resistance because it rains, and the electrical junction box installed in the engine room needs moisture resistance because moisture may enter during running in the rain.

電気接続箱1は、矩形の回路基板30と、合成樹脂製の2つの部材、すなわち回路基板30を開口側から収容する筐体本体20(第2筐体部材)および筐体本体20の開口側を嵌め込むカバー10(第1筐体部材)とから構成される。カバー10は、内部の回路基板30を水滴や塵埃等から保護すると共に回路基板30の交換などのために、筐体本体20と着脱自在に固定される。   The electrical connection box 1 includes a rectangular circuit board 30 and two members made of synthetic resin, that is, a housing body 20 (second housing member) that houses the circuit board 30 from the opening side, and an opening side of the housing body 20 It is comprised from the cover 10 (1st housing member) which inserts. The cover 10 is detachably fixed to the housing body 20 in order to protect the internal circuit board 30 from water drops, dust, and the like and to replace the circuit board 30.

カバー10(第1筐体部材10)は、第1底部11と第1底部11の周縁部に立設する第1壁部12とを有する。また、筐体本体20(第2筐体部材20)は、第2底部21と第2底部21の周縁部に立設する第2壁部22とを有する。通常設置された時に上側となるカバー側からの水の侵入を防止するため、カバー10は、筐体本体20の開口側に取り付けられる際、筐体本体20の第2壁部22が第1壁部の内側に嵌合するように取り付けられる。カバー10の第1壁部12の内面と筐体本体20の第2壁部22の外面とは、塵埃などの侵入を防止するため密着させて固定される。しかし、両者を高い精度で密着させたとしても、水分は毛細管現象により両者の間に侵入する場合がある。本発明に係る車両搭載用筐体は、かかる水分が内部の回路基板に到達することを防止するためものである。   The cover 10 (first housing member 10) has a first bottom portion 11 and a first wall portion 12 standing on the peripheral edge portion of the first bottom portion 11. The housing body 20 (second housing member 20) includes a second bottom portion 21 and a second wall portion 22 erected on the peripheral edge of the second bottom portion 21. In order to prevent water from entering from the cover side which is the upper side when normally installed, when the cover 10 is attached to the opening side of the housing body 20, the second wall portion 22 of the housing body 20 has the first wall. It is attached to fit inside the part. The inner surface of the first wall portion 12 of the cover 10 and the outer surface of the second wall portion 22 of the housing body 20 are fixed in close contact to prevent intrusion of dust or the like. However, even if the two are brought into close contact with each other with high accuracy, moisture may enter between the two due to capillary action. The housing for mounting on a vehicle according to the present invention is for preventing such moisture from reaching the internal circuit board.

カバー10の第1壁部12は、第1壁部12を貫通する孔122を備え、その孔122の内周面に被掛合部121を有する。また、筐体本体20の第2壁部22は、外面側から突出する掛合部221を有する。筐体本体20とカバー10は、掛合部221と被掛合部121とが互いに掛合することで、固定される。カバー10は、弾性のある合成樹脂から形成されているので、取り付ける際に突出した掛合部221が第1壁部12を押し広げ、掛合部221が孔122に達した時に元に戻ることで掛合部221が孔122に嵌る。掛合部221が孔122に嵌った結果、掛合部221は、孔122の内周面の被掛合部121に掛合する。なお、筐体本体20とカバー10の固定方法は、これに限定されず、例えば、筐体本体に凹部を、カバーに凸部を設けて互いを固定してもよい。   The first wall portion 12 of the cover 10 includes a hole 122 that penetrates the first wall portion 12, and has a hooked portion 121 on the inner peripheral surface of the hole 122. Further, the second wall portion 22 of the housing body 20 has a hooking portion 221 that protrudes from the outer surface side. The housing body 20 and the cover 10 are fixed when the hooking portion 221 and the hooked portion 121 are hooked with each other. Since the cover 10 is formed of an elastic synthetic resin, the hooking portion 221 that protrudes when the cover 10 is attached spreads the first wall portion 12, and when the hooking portion 221 reaches the hole 122, the cover 10 is returned to its original position. Part 221 fits into hole 122. As a result of the hooking part 221 fitting into the hole 122, the hooking part 221 is hooked to the hooked part 121 on the inner peripheral surface of the hole 122. In addition, the fixing method of the housing main body 20 and the cover 10 is not limited thereto, and for example, a concave portion may be provided on the housing main body, and a convex portion may be provided on the cover to fix each other.

回路基板30を収容する筐体本体20は、矩形の回路基板30よりひと回り大きく形成され、回路基板30の端面が第2壁部22に当接しないようになっている。仮に、筐体本体20の第2壁部22とカバー10の第1壁部12との間に毛細管現象により水が侵入し、水が第2壁部22の内側を水が伝ったとしても、回路基板30に水が到達することを防止するためである。   The housing body 20 that houses the circuit board 30 is formed to be slightly larger than the rectangular circuit board 30 so that the end surface of the circuit board 30 does not contact the second wall portion 22. Even if water penetrates between the second wall portion 22 of the housing body 20 and the first wall portion 12 of the cover 10 due to capillary action, and the water is transmitted through the inside of the second wall portion 22, This is to prevent water from reaching the circuit board 30.

また、筐体本体20(第2筐体部材20)は、第2底部21および第2壁部22の両方に亘って設けられるリブ23を有する。リブ23は、第2底部21と第2壁部22とが互いに直角をなすように維持するための補強材として機能すると共に、その上端231に回路基板30を載置するものとしても機能する。   The housing body 20 (second housing member 20) includes a rib 23 provided over both the second bottom portion 21 and the second wall portion 22. The rib 23 functions as a reinforcing material for maintaining the second bottom portion 21 and the second wall portion 22 at right angles to each other, and also functions as a device for placing the circuit board 30 on the upper end 231 thereof.

なお、筐体本体20の第2壁部22は、長辺側の第2壁部22の上端のほぼ中央に切欠部224を1つずつ備える。切欠部224は、作業者が指に挟んで回路基板30を筐体本体20に収容する際、第2壁部22が邪魔にならないように第2壁部22の上端を、回路基板30を取り付ける第2底部21からの高さ、即ち、リブ23の上端231と同じ高さとなるように切欠きした部分である。従って、切欠部224は、リブ23に対応して備えられる。そうすると、リブ23の近傍の第2壁部22の第2底部21からの高さは、切欠部224における第2壁部22の高さを言う。なお、切欠部224は存在しなくてもよく、例えば、第2壁部22の高さがすべてリブ23の上端231と同じ高さであってもよい。   Note that the second wall portion 22 of the housing body 20 includes one cutout portion 224 at approximately the center of the upper end of the second wall portion 22 on the long side. The notch part 224 attaches the circuit board 30 to the upper end of the second wall part 22 so that the second wall part 22 does not get in the way when the operator holds the circuit board 30 in the housing body 20 with the fingers sandwiched between the fingers. This is a portion that is notched so as to have a height from the second bottom 21, that is, the same height as the upper end 231 of the rib 23. Therefore, the notch 224 is provided corresponding to the rib 23. Then, the height from the second bottom portion 21 of the second wall portion 22 in the vicinity of the rib 23 refers to the height of the second wall portion 22 in the notch portion 224. In addition, the notch part 224 may not exist, for example, the height of the 2nd wall part 22 may be the same height as the upper end 231 of the rib 23, for example.

本実施例では、回路基板30がリブ23の上端231に当接する回路基板当接部232の第2底部21からの高さH2は、リブ23の近傍の第2壁部22の第2底部21からの高さH1と同じである。むろん、回路基板当接部232の高さH2が、リブ23の近傍の第2壁部22の高さH1より高ければ、回路基板30への水の到達は防止できる。そこで、本発明では、本実施例のように、回路基板当接部232の高さH2が、リブ23の近傍の第2壁部22の高さH1と等しい、または、後述する実施例のように、回路基板当接部232の高さH2が、リブ23の近傍の第2壁部22の高さH1より低い構成を有する。回路基板30上に搭載される電子部品の大きさによっては、回路基板当接部232の高さH2が、リブ23の近傍の第2壁部22の高さH1より高くできない場合があるからである。   In the present embodiment, the height H2 from the second bottom portion 21 of the circuit board contact portion 232 where the circuit board 30 contacts the upper end 231 of the rib 23 is the second bottom portion 21 of the second wall portion 22 in the vicinity of the rib 23. It is the same as the height H1 from. Of course, if the height H2 of the circuit board abutting portion 232 is higher than the height H1 of the second wall portion 22 in the vicinity of the rib 23, water can be prevented from reaching the circuit board 30. Therefore, in the present invention, as in the present embodiment, the height H2 of the circuit board contact portion 232 is equal to the height H1 of the second wall portion 22 in the vicinity of the rib 23, or as in the embodiment described later. In addition, the height H2 of the circuit board abutting portion 232 is lower than the height H1 of the second wall portion 22 in the vicinity of the rib 23. Depending on the size of the electronic component mounted on the circuit board 30, the height H 2 of the circuit board contact part 232 may not be higher than the height H 1 of the second wall part 22 near the rib 23. is there.

リブ23は、回路基板当接部232と第2壁部22の間に、回路基板当接部232の高さH2およびリブ23の近傍の第2壁部22の高さH1より低い高さを有する変形部233を有する。この変形部233は、仮に、筐体本体20の第2壁部22とカバー10の第1壁部12との間に毛細管現象により水が侵入し、水が切欠部224における第2壁部22の上端に達したとしても、第2壁部22の上端と同じ高さに載置された回路基板30に水が到達することを防止することができる。水は、リブ23の上端231を伝わろうとしても、この変形部233の所で下方の第1底部21の方へ導かれるからである。   The rib 23 has a height lower than the height H2 of the circuit board contact portion 232 and the height H1 of the second wall portion 22 in the vicinity of the rib 23 between the circuit board contact portion 232 and the second wall portion 22. It has the deformation part 233 which has. In the deformed portion 233, temporarily, water enters between the second wall portion 22 of the housing body 20 and the first wall portion 12 of the cover 10 by a capillary phenomenon, and the water enters the second wall portion 22 in the notch portion 224. Even when the upper end of the second wall portion 22 is reached, it is possible to prevent water from reaching the circuit board 30 placed at the same height as the upper end of the second wall portion 22. This is because water is guided toward the lower first bottom portion 21 at the deformed portion 233 even if it tries to travel along the upper end 231 of the rib 23.

ここで、図8を参照し、変形部233が、どのように水が到達することを防止するのかを具体的に説明する。なお、図8に表わされた車両搭載用筐体1は、図2の再掲なので説明を省略する。車両搭載用筐体1が被水すると、水WT1がカバー10の側面(第1壁部12など)を下方へ伝って孔122のところまで達する。大部分の水はさらに下方へ落下してしまうが、一部は孔122の内周面に回り込み、第2壁部22と第1壁部12との間に毛細管現象により水WT2が侵入する場合がある。水WT2が第2壁部22の上端まで到達すると、次に水は、その上端の表面で、図視左方向および奥行き方向へ拡がり始める。図視左方向へ拡がり始めた水WT3は、変形部233の所まで来ると、下方へリブ23の側面へ流れ落ち、変形部233よりさらに図視左方向へ到達することはない。このように、車両搭載用筐体1の内部に侵入した水が回路基板30に到達することを、簡単な構造で防止することができる。   Here, with reference to FIG. 8, it demonstrates concretely how the deformation | transformation part 233 prevents water from reaching | attaining. Note that the on-vehicle housing 1 shown in FIG. 8 is shown again in FIG. When the vehicle mounting casing 1 is flooded, the water WT1 travels down the side surface (the first wall portion 12 and the like) of the cover 10 and reaches the hole 122. Most of the water falls further downward, but a part of the water goes around the inner peripheral surface of the hole 122 and the water WT2 enters between the second wall portion 22 and the first wall portion 12 due to capillary action. There is. When the water WT2 reaches the upper end of the second wall portion 22, the water starts to spread in the left direction and the depth direction in the figure on the surface of the upper end. When the water WT3 that has started to expand in the left direction in the drawing reaches the deformed portion 233, it flows down to the side surface of the rib 23 and does not reach the left direction in the drawing further than the deformed portion 233. In this way, it is possible to prevent water that has entered the inside of the vehicle-mounting casing 1 from reaching the circuit board 30 with a simple structure.

<第一実施例の変形例>
図5は、本実施例の変形例を示す。リブ23’は、回路基板当接部232’と第2壁部22’の間に、回路基板当接部232’の高さH2およびリブ23’の近傍の第2壁部22’の高さH1より高い高さを有する変形部233’を有する。本変形例は、リブ23’の近傍の第2壁部22’の高さH1とリブ23’の上端231’の高さが同じ場合を示す。この構成によっても、仮に、第2壁部22’と第1壁部との間に毛細管現象により水が侵入し、水が切欠部224における第2壁部22’の上端に達したとしても、第2壁部22’の上端と同じ高さに載置された回路基板30に水が到達することを防止することができる。水は、リブ23’の上端231’を伝わろうとしても、この変形部233’の所で堰きとめられるからである。
<Modification of the first embodiment>
FIG. 5 shows a modification of this embodiment. The rib 23 'is located between the circuit board contact part 232' and the second wall part 22 ', the height H2 of the circuit board contact part 232' and the height of the second wall part 22 'in the vicinity of the rib 23'. It has a deformed portion 233 ′ having a height higher than H1. This modification shows a case where the height H1 of the second wall portion 22 ′ in the vicinity of the rib 23 ′ is the same as the height of the upper end 231 ′ of the rib 23 ′. Even with this configuration, even if water penetrates between the second wall portion 22 ′ and the first wall portion by capillary action, and the water reaches the upper end of the second wall portion 22 ′ in the cutout portion 224, It is possible to prevent water from reaching the circuit board 30 placed at the same height as the upper end of the second wall portion 22 ′. This is because even if the water tries to travel along the upper end 231 ′ of the rib 23 ′, it is dammed up at the deformed portion 233 ′.

したがって、リブ23/23’は、回路基板当接部232/232’と第2壁部22/22’の間に回路基板当接部232/232’の高さH2およびリブ近傍の第2壁部22/22’の高さH1とは異なる高さを有する変形部233/233’を有することで、車両搭載用筐体内部に侵入した水が回路基板に到達することを、簡単な構造で防止することができる。   Accordingly, the rib 23/23 ′ is formed between the circuit board contact portion 232/232 ′ and the second wall portion 22/22 ′, and the height H2 of the circuit board contact portion 232/232 ′ and the second wall near the rib. By having the deformed portion 233/233 ′ having a height different from the height H1 of the portion 22/22 ′, the water that has entered the inside of the vehicle mounting case reaches the circuit board with a simple structure. Can be prevented.

<第二実施例>
図6を参照して、本実施例に係る変形部233を説明する。なお、上記実施例と異なる点を中心に述べる。上記実施例では、リブ23の近傍の第2壁部22の高さH1とリブ23の上端231の高さが同じであったが、本実施例では、リブ23Aの上端231Aの高さH2は、リブ23Aの近傍の第2壁部22Aの高さH1より低い。すなわち、回路基板30がリブ23Aの上端231Aに当接する回路基板当接部232Aの第2底部21Aからの高さH2は、リブ23Aの近傍の第2壁部22Aの第2底部21Aからの高さH1より低い。
<Second Example>
With reference to FIG. 6, the deformation | transformation part 233 which concerns on a present Example is demonstrated. The points different from the above embodiment will be mainly described. In the above embodiment, the height H1 of the second wall portion 22 in the vicinity of the rib 23 and the height of the upper end 231 of the rib 23 are the same. However, in this embodiment, the height H2 of the upper end 231A of the rib 23A is The height H1 of the second wall portion 22A in the vicinity of the rib 23A is lower. That is, the height H2 from the second bottom portion 21A of the circuit board contact portion 232A where the circuit board 30 contacts the upper end 231A of the rib 23A is the height from the second bottom portion 21A of the second wall portion 22A in the vicinity of the rib 23A. Lower than H1.

そして、筐体本体20A(第2筐体部材20A)においては、リブ23Aは、回路基板当接部232Aと第2壁部22Aの間に、回路基板当接部232Aの高さH2より低い高さを有する変形部233Aを有する。この変形部233Aは、仮に、第2壁部22Aと第1壁部との間に毛細管現象により水が侵入し、水が切欠部224における第2壁部22Aの上端に達したとしても、第2壁部22Aの上端より低い高さに載置された回路基板30に水が到達することを防止することができる。水は、回路基板当接部232Aよりもさらに低い位置にある変形部233Aの所で下方の第1底部21Aの方へ導かれるからである。これによれば、車両搭載用筐体内部に侵入した水が回路基板に到達することを、簡単な構造で防止することができる。   In the housing body 20A (second housing member 20A), the rib 23A is lower than the height H2 of the circuit board contact portion 232A between the circuit board contact portion 232A and the second wall portion 22A. It has the deformation part 233A having a thickness. Even if the deformed portion 233A enters water between the second wall portion 22A and the first wall portion by capillarity and reaches the upper end of the second wall portion 22A in the cutout portion 224, It is possible to prevent water from reaching the circuit board 30 placed at a height lower than the upper end of the two wall portions 22A. This is because water is guided toward the lower first bottom portion 21A at the deformable portion 233A located at a position lower than the circuit board contact portion 232A. According to this, it is possible to prevent the water that has entered the inside of the vehicle mounting casing from reaching the circuit board with a simple structure.

<第二実施例の変形例>
図7を参照して、本変形例に係る変形部233A’を説明する。なお、上記実施例と異なる点を中心に述べる。本変形例では、上述した第二実施例と同じく、リブ23A’の上端231A’の高さH2は、リブ23A’の近傍の第2壁部22A’の高さH1より低い。すなわち、回路基板30がリブ23A’の上端231A’に当接する回路基板当接部232A’の第2底部21A’からの高さH2は、リブ23A’の近傍の第2壁部22A’の第2底部21A’からの高さH1より低い。
<Modification of the second embodiment>
With reference to FIG. 7, the deforming unit 233A ′ according to the present modification will be described. The points different from the above embodiment will be mainly described. In the present modification, as in the second embodiment described above, the height H2 of the upper end 231A ′ of the rib 23A ′ is lower than the height H1 of the second wall portion 22A ′ in the vicinity of the rib 23A ′. That is, the height H2 from the second bottom portion 21A ′ of the circuit board contact portion 232A ′ where the circuit board 30 contacts the upper end 231A ′ of the rib 23A ′ is the second height of the second wall portion 22A ′ in the vicinity of the rib 23A ′. 2 Lower than the height H1 from the bottom 21A ′.

上述した第二実施例と異なる点は、筐体本体20A’(第2筐体部材20A’)においては、リブ23A’は、回路基板当接部232A’と第2壁部22A’の間に、リブ23A’の近傍の第2壁部22A’の高さH1より高い高さを有する変形部233A’を有する点である。この変形部233A’は、仮に、第2壁部22A’と第1壁部との間に毛細管現象により水が侵入し、水が切欠部224’における第2壁部22A’の上端に達したとしても、第2壁部22A’の上端より低い高さに載置された回路基板30に水が到達することを防止することができる。水は、回路基板当接部232A’よりも高い位置にある変形部233A’の所で堰きとめられるからである。これによれば、車両搭載用筐体内部に侵入した水が回路基板に到達することを、簡単な構造で防止することができる。   The difference from the second embodiment described above is that, in the housing body 20A ′ (second housing member 20A ′), the rib 23A ′ is provided between the circuit board contact portion 232A ′ and the second wall portion 22A ′. In this case, the second wall portion 22A ′ in the vicinity of the rib 23A ′ has a deformed portion 233A ′ having a height higher than the height H1. The deformed portion 233A ′ temporarily enters water between the second wall portion 22A ′ and the first wall portion by capillary action, and the water reaches the upper end of the second wall portion 22A ′ at the notch portion 224 ′. However, it is possible to prevent water from reaching the circuit board 30 placed at a height lower than the upper end of the second wall portion 22A ′. This is because water is dammed up at the deformed portion 233A 'located higher than the circuit board contact portion 232A'. According to this, it is possible to prevent the water that has entered the inside of the vehicle mounting casing from reaching the circuit board with a simple structure.

なお、本発明は、例示した実施例に限定するものではなく、特許請求の範囲の各項に記載された内容から逸脱しない範囲の構成による実施が可能である。すなわち、本発明は、主に特定の実施形態に関して特に図示され、かつ説明されているが、本発明の技術的思想および目的の範囲から逸脱することなく、以上述べた実施形態に対し、数量、その他の詳細な構成において、当業者が様々な変形を加えることができるものである。   In addition, this invention is not limited to the illustrated Example, The implementation by the structure of the range which does not deviate from the content described in each item of a claim is possible.
