Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] This invention relates to a holder for flat ribbon cables.

<Conventional Description> Fig. 1 shows a conventional flat ribbon cable holder. In the figure, 100 indicates the holder. A conventional flat ribbon cable holder 100 has a bifold plate 101 made of a resin material, for example.
and 102, and its free ends 103 and 1
04 are fitted into each other by a stop means constituted by, for example, a protrusion and a recess, and a flat ribbon cable 105 is sandwiched between the two plates 101 and 102.
A structure in which one plate, for example 101, is fixed to a surface of a frame 106 or the like is generally used.

The method of fixing the plate 101 to the surface of the frame 106, etc. is by using double-sided adhesive tape 107 in the example shown in FIG. 1, or by using screws 20 as shown in FIG.
1, or as shown in FIG.
A structure is adopted in which an engaging piece 302 formed in the shape is fitted.

When the double-sided adhesive tape 107 is used as in the example shown in FIG. 1, there is a drawback that the holder 100 cannot be removed again. Further, in the examples shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, tap holes or holes 301 must be formed in the frame 106, etc., which requires additional processing steps. Moreover, the holder 100 has two plates 101 and 102.
Since it is constructed with , it has a disadvantage that it is thick and protrudes largely from the mounting surface.

<Purpose of the invention> The object of this invention is to provide a flat ribbon cable holder that does not protrude significantly from the mounting surface and is therefore thin in shape. This invention also attempts to provide a flat ribbon cable holder that can be manufactured at low cost.

<Embodiment of the invention> FIG. 4 shows an embodiment of the invention. In this invention, a concave groove 401 that expands inward is formed in the frame 106, etc., and a bent part 402 that fits into the concave groove 401, and a holding piece 4 that presses the flat ribbon cable 105 against a surface 403 of the frame 106, etc.
The flat ribbon cable holder 100 is constituted by a plate having spring properties having the following characteristics. The plate constituting the holder 100 can be made of, for example, a metal plate with spring properties, and a folded part 405 is formed on the free end side of the holding piece part 400, and the cable 105 is laterally displaced by this folded part 405. It was designed to suppress the situation without causing any harm.

In this example, the frame 106 is made of an extruded aluminum member. With an extruded shape, it is easy to form the groove 401 that expands inward. Therefore, the member having the inwardly expanding concave groove 401 can be obtained at a relatively low cost. This inner widening groove 401 was originally used as a screw hole for screwing the panel plate 501 at its end as shown in FIG. 106 is used. Therefore, since the concave groove 401 is not specially formed in order to attach the holder 100 according to this invention, it is also economical in this respect. Therefore, even when implementing this invention, there is no particular increase in cost and it can be manufactured at low cost. Furthermore, since the single plate has the function of holding the cable 105 against the surface of the frame 106, the entire structure can be made thin. Therefore, the volume occupied within the case can be increased. Furthermore, since it can be easily made from a metal plate spring, for example, it can be made at low cost. Furthermore, since the cable 105 can be freely removed, it also has the practical benefit of being able to easily remove the cable 105 during maintenance and repair. Furthermore, if the frame 106 is formed with the groove 401 that expands inward, the holder of the same shape can be used for frames with different thicknesses. Therefore, the effect is extremely great in practical use.
