ネクタハウジングの端子収容室における端子係止
機構の改良に関する。[Detailed Description of the Invention] - Industrial Application Field - The present invention relates to an improvement in a terminal locking mechanism in a terminal accommodating chamber of a connector housing used for electrical wiring in automobiles and the like.
−従来の技術−
従来のコネクタハウジングにおける端子係止機
構は第３図のような構成を有する（実開昭52−
133991号）。-Prior art- The terminal locking mechanism in a conventional connector housing has a configuration as shown in Fig.
No. 133991).
即ち、Ａは雄型のコネクタハウジングであり、
中央仕切壁１によつて上、下に端子収容室２，２
が区画形成され、該収容室２の前方開口部（図中
左側）には雌型端子Ｂに対する前止壁３が設けら

ている。 That is, A is a male connector housing,
Terminal storage chambers 2, 2 are provided above and below by the central partition wall 1.
A front stop wall 3 for the female terminal B is provided at the front opening (left side in the figure) of the storage chamber 2. A pair of flexible locking arms 4, 4 extending to the front opening are connected to the central partition wall 1, and a locking protrusion 5 is provided on the locking arm 4, and a locking protrusion 5 is provided on the bottom plate 6 of the terminal B. The terminal B is engaged with the hole 7 to prevent the terminal B from coming off later.
−考案が解決しようとする問題点−
上記構成によると、雌型端子ＢをハウジングＡ
の後方から挿入し、一方の可撓性係止腕４を他方
側に撓ませ、その弾性復帰力を利用して係止突起
５を孔７に突入せしめるのであるが、係止腕４，
４は互に対向しているため、他方の影響を受けず
に自由に撓むようにするには、両者間に相当大き
な間隙（撓み空間）Ｓを設ける必要があり、コネ
クタハウジングの小型化、特に上下多段に多数の
端子収容室を有する多極コネクタの小型化におい
て大きな障害となつていた。-Problems to be solved by the invention- According to the above configuration, the female terminal B is connected to the housing A.
One flexible locking arm 4 is bent toward the other side, and the locking protrusion 5 is inserted into the hole 7 using its elastic return force.
4 are facing each other, so in order to allow them to flex freely without being affected by the other, it is necessary to provide a fairly large gap (deflection space) S between them. This has been a major obstacle in the miniaturization of multi-polar connectors that have a large number of terminal housing chambers in multiple stages.
本考案は上記の問題に着目してなされたもの
で、コネクタハウジングに占める可撓性係止腕の
撓み空間を充分確保する一方、その大きさを制限
してコネクタハウジングを小型化し得るようにし
たものである。 The present invention was developed in view of the above-mentioned problems, and while ensuring sufficient deflection space for the flexible locking arms occupying the connector housing, the size of the flexible locking arms is limited, thereby making it possible to downsize the connector housing. It is something.
−問題点を解決するための手段−
本考案は、従来における対向する一対の可撓性
係止腕を、相互に撓み空間を残すように左右に偏
位して設けることにより、上記問題点を解決する
ようにしたものである。- Means for Solving the Problems - The present invention solves the above problems by providing a pair of opposing flexible locking arms that are offset to the left and right so as to leave a deflection space between them. This is what I tried to solve.
−実施例−
以下、本考案の一実施例を示す図面と共に説明
すれば、第１図イ，ロにおいて、Ａは雄型のコネ
クタハウジングで、その周壁１０の内部中央に仕
切壁１１を設けて、上下に端子収容室１２，１２
を形成し、仕切壁１１には前方開口にのびる一対
の可撓性係止腕１３，１３を設け、端子に対する
係止突起１４を設けるのは従来と同様である。-Embodiment- Hereinafter, an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. In FIGS. , upper and lower terminal housing chambers 12, 12
The partition wall 11 is provided with a pair of flexible locking arms 13, 13 extending to the front opening, and a locking protrusion 14 for the terminal is provided as in the conventional case.
しかし、本考案にあつては、可撓性係止腕１
３，１３は互に左右にずらして、すなわち相互に
撓み空間ｓを残すように左右に偏位して設けられ
ている。 However, in the present invention, the flexible locking arm 1
3 and 13 are provided so as to be offset from each other to the left and right, that is, to leave a deflection space s between them.
第２図イ，ロは本考案の他の実施例を示し、端
子Ｂに対する係止突起１６を巾広に形成して互に
他の可撓性係止腕１５，１５′の撓み方向にまた
がるようにしたものである。 Figures 2A and 2B show another embodiment of the present invention, in which the locking protrusion 16 for the terminal B is formed wide so that it extends across the bending direction of the other flexible locking arms 15, 15'. This is how it was done.
−作用−
上記構成において、一対の可撓性係止腕１３，
１３は互に左右に偏位して設けてあるため、雌型
端子Ｂの挿入に際し、他方に影響されずに矢線Ｐ
方向に自由に撓むことができる（第１図イ及び第
２図イ）。-Operation- In the above configuration, the pair of flexible locking arms 13,
13 are offset from each other to the left and right, so when inserting the female terminal B, the arrow P is not affected by the other terminal.
It can be freely bent in any direction (Figure 1A and Figure 2A).
また、第２図イ，ロに示す場合には、巾広に形
成された係止突起１６が他方の可撓性係止腕１
５，１５′に対するストツパとして作用するので、
過度の撓みを防止することができる。 In addition, in the case shown in FIGS. 2A and 2B, the wide locking protrusion 16
Since it acts as a stopper for 5 and 15',
Excessive deflection can be prevented.
−考案の効果−
本考案は以上説明したように、端子Ｂに対する
可撓性係止腕を左右に偏位して設けてあるため、
従来のように両係止腕間に大きな撓み空間Ｓ（第
３図参照）を設ける必要がなく、コネクタハウジ
ングの小型化が可能となる。-Effects of the invention- As explained above, in the present invention, the flexible locking arms for the terminal B are provided with deviations to the left and right.
It is not necessary to provide a large deflection space S (see FIG. 3) between both locking arms as in the conventional case, and the connector housing can be made smaller.
なお、以上は雄型のコネクタハウジングに雌型
端子Ｂを係止する場合について説明したが、雌型
のハウジングに雄型の端子を挿入・係止する場合
も同様に適用される。 Although the above description has been made regarding the case where the female terminal B is locked into the male connector housing, the same applies to the case where the male terminal is inserted and locked into the female housing.
