Description
本発明は、電気接触子に関し、特に、小型電気機器に配置され、バッテリー接続用等の電気接触に用いられる電気接触子に関する。 The present invention relates to an electrical contact, and more particularly to an electrical contact that is disposed in a small electrical device and used for electrical contact such as battery connection.
小型電気機器、特に携帯電話機は薄型化が要求されている。この要求に対応するために、特許文献１は、バッテリー等の相手接点に接触する接触部がハウジングから前方に突出し、その接触部の後部に弾性的に縮むコイルスプリングを配置した、いわゆるポゴピンコネクタを提案している。しかしながら、この特許文献１に提案されたポゴピンコネクタは部品点数が多くコスト高である。 Thin electric devices, particularly mobile phones, are required to be thin. In order to meet this requirement, Patent Document 1 discloses a so-called pogo pin connector in which a contact portion that contacts a mating contact such as a battery protrudes forward from the housing and a coil spring that elastically contracts is arranged at the rear of the contact portion. is suggesting. However, the pogo pin connector proposed in Patent Document 1 has a large number of parts and is expensive.
これに対し、特許文献２は、板金の打抜きおよび折曲げ加工により、上記のコイルスプリングの役割りを担うばね部を含むコンタクトが一体に形成された、部品点数の少ない電気コネクタを提案している。 On the other hand, Patent Document 2 proposes an electrical connector with a small number of parts, in which contacts including a spring portion serving as the coil spring are integrally formed by punching and bending a sheet metal. .
しかしながら、特許文献２に開示された電気コネクタは、ハウジングが別体であり、この別体のハウジング内に収納しなければならず、作業に手間がかかると共に、この収納作業中に変形されたりして、コネクタ（接触子）としての作用を充分に果たすことが出来なくなってしまうことがあった。また、このコネクタは、上記したように、別体のハウジング内に収容しなければならないので、結果としてコスト高になるという欠点もあった。 However, the electrical connector disclosed in Patent Document 2 has a separate housing, which must be housed in the separate housing, which is troublesome and may be deformed during this housing operation. As a result, the function as a connector (contact) may not be sufficiently achieved. Further, as described above, since this connector must be housed in a separate housing, there is a disadvantage that the cost is increased as a result.
そこで、本発明は、上記したような電気コネクタのような欠点がなく、堅牢であり、安価に製造でき、しかも実装の際に取り扱いやすい電気接触子およびその製造方法を提供することを目的とする。 Therefore, the present invention has an object to provide an electrical contact that does not have the drawbacks of the above-described electrical connector, is robust, can be manufactured at low cost, and is easy to handle during mounting, and a method for manufacturing the electrical contact. .

Further, since the housing is integral, mounting can be performed by simply attaching the bottom wall or the like to the electric device as the mounted device by soldering or the like, and the mounting location is not limited. Furthermore, since the entire electrical contact is conductive, the lead wire or the like can be connected anywhere, and the wiring is free.
