Abstract

(57) [Abstract] [Purpose] The present invention relates to improvement of a grounding terminal used for preventing static electricity in household appliances, OA electric appliances, and the like.
The assembly operation is simplified so that it can be assembled in one process without using a tool or a set screw, and the number of constituent parts is reduced to provide the device at a low cost. According to the present invention, a substantially square terminal body 2 is crimped onto a strip 1a of an electric wire 1, and a clip piece 3 is cut and raised slightly in the middle of the terminal body 2 to have elasticity. Then, the locking claw 4 is formed on the inner edge of the clip piece 3 so as to be inclined so as to be locked in the through hole 6 of the mounting plate 5.

Description

[Detailed description of the device]

[0001]

[Industrial applications]

 The present invention relates to an improvement of a grounding terminal used for preventing static electricity in, for example, household electric appliances and OA electric appliances.

[0002]

[Prior art]

 The conventional grounding terminal used for preventing static electricity is constructed as shown in FIGS.

That is, in FIG. 4 and FIG. 5, the base portion b1 of the terminal body b having a substantially raindrop shape is crimped to the strip a1 of the electric wire a, and the through hole c is formed in the middle of the terminal body b. Has been drilled. Further, the through hole c is formed so as to overlap with the mounting hole d1 of the mounting plate d such as a ground plate, and the mounting plate d and the terminal body b are provided with the through hole c and the mounting hole. It is fixed to d1 through a set screw e.

Therefore, the above-mentioned grounding terminal used for preventing static electricity is like a driver in which the mounting hole d1 of the mounting plate d is superposed on the through hole c when the terminal body b is mounted on the mounting plate d. The set screw e is fixed with a tool to prevent static electricity generated in household appliances and OA electric appliances.

On the other hand, in another conventional example shown in FIG. 6, a base portion f1 of a hawk-shaped terminal body f is crimped to a strip a1 of an electric wire a, and a hawk portion g is formed in the middle of the terminal body f. Then, for example, a mounting hole d1 of a mounting plate d such as a ground plate is superposed on the fork portion g and fixed through a setscrew e, so that static electricity generated in household electric appliances and OA electric appliances is prevented. We are trying to prevent it.

[0006]

[Problems to be solved by the device]

 However, when the terminal body b is attached to the mounting plate d, the grounding terminal used for preventing static electricity described above is superposed with the mounting hole d1 of the mounting plate d in the through hole c and stopped by a tool such as a driver. Since the tool is fixed through the screw e, it is not only necessary to prepare a tool and a set screw e in advance, but also the assembly operation is troublesome, the number of component parts is large, and it is difficult to provide at low cost. .

In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, the present invention can be assembled in one step without using a tool or a set screw e to simplify the assembly operation, reduce the number of components, and provide the device at a low cost. To do.

[0008]

[Means for Solving the Problems]

 According to the present invention, a substantially rectangular terminal body is crimped to an electric wire strip, and a clip piece is formed by cutting and raising it slightly upward in the middle of the terminal body so as to have elasticity. The locking claws are formed on the inner edge so as to be slanted so as to lock with the through holes of the mounting plate.

[0009]

[Action]

 According to the present invention, when the terminal main body is mounted on the mounting plate, the terminal main body is inserted into the edge of the mounting plate so that the terminal main body and the elastic clip piece sandwich the mounting plate at the same time. The locking claws of the clip pieces are locked and fixed in the through holes of the mounting plate so that they can be assembled in one step, thereby simplifying the assembly operation.

[0010]

【Example】

 Hereinafter, the present invention will be described with reference to the illustrated embodiments.

In FIG. 1 to FIG. 3, reference numeral 1 is a grounding electric wire used for static electricity prevention of household electric appliances, OA electric appliances and the like, and a strip 1 a of the electric wire 1 has a substantially rectangular shape. The base portion 2a of the terminal body 2 is fixed by crimping, and a clip piece 3 is formed in the middle of the terminal body 2 so as to be cut and raised slightly upward to have elasticity. Further, on the inner edge 3a of the clip piece 3, a locking claw 4 is formed so as to be inclined so as to lock with a through hole 6 of a mounting plate 5 such as an earth plate. An auxiliary elastic piece 7 is formed on the inner edge 2b of the terminal body 2 facing the locking claw 4 so as to assist the clamping force of the terminal body 2.

Therefore, when the terminal body 2 is mounted on the mounting plate 5, the terminal body 2 is inserted into the end edge 5a of the mounting plate 5 so that the clip having elasticity with the terminal body 2 can be obtained. At the same time as sandwiching the mounting plate 5 with the piece 3, the locking claw 4 of the clip piece 3 is locked and fixed in the through hole 6 of the mounting plate 5 so as not to be pulled back indefinitely, and can be assembled in one step. It is a thing.

[0013]

[Effect of device]

 As described above, according to the present invention, a substantially rectangular terminal body is crimped to a wire strip, and a clip piece is cut and raised slightly in the middle of the terminal body to have elasticity. However, since the locking claw is formed on the inner edge of the clip piece so as to be locked to the through hole of the mounting plate, it can be assembled in one step without using a tool or a set screw e. Not only is there an excellent effect that the assembly operation is simplified and the number of constituent parts is reduced, so that it can be provided at low cost.
