Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a connector, and more particularly to a connector configured with twin tabs and tab receptacles.

Generally, connectors are plug-in type electrical connectors in which the tab and receptacle parts are integrated, and it is necessary that there be a difference in thickness between the tab side and the receptacle side depending on the purpose. Although they are folded to obtain strength, manufacturing is troublesome and requires a lot of man-hours, and when housing and fixing them in a housing, there are drawbacks such as poor handling.

This invention aims to eliminate the above-mentioned drawbacks, and its features include a first tab clamping part formed on an elastic conductive plate, one edge of this clamping part, and a first tab clamping part formed on an elastic conductive plate. The first
a second tab clamping part facing the tab clamping part at a predetermined interval, and an end edge of the second curved part connected to the other edge of the first tab clamping part; a twin tab receptacle which faces the edge of the second clamping part; a first tab is formed at one end of the mounting part and a second tab is formed at the other end, and a lock is secured between these tabs. The twin tab plugs with claws are inserted into the recesses of the partition member, which has holes or recesses through a partition plate with recesses formed on both sides and a plug insertion hole provided between them. The present invention provides a connector in which a tab receptacle and a twin tab plug are respectively inserted and a locking claw provided on the tab is locked in the hole or recess. An embodiment of this invention shown in the drawings will be described in detail below.

Figure 1 is a developed view of the twin tab receptacles.
A pair of arc-shaped chamfers 2a, 2b and guide protrusions 3a, 3b are formed on both longitudinal side edges of a rectangular material 1 by press punching a thin elastic metal plate such as copper or phosphor bronze. Slit 4 in the center
a to 4c were provided, and these portions were used as first and second curved portion forming regions 5a, 5b so that the chamfered portions 2a, 2b described above were located outside the curved portions, and slits 4b, 4c were formed. These portions are referred to as first and second tab clamping part forming areas 6a and 6b, and this tab clamping part forming area 6b is referred to as a second curved part forming area 5.
By curving b, the twin tab receptacle 9 faces the first tab clamping part forming area 6a at a predetermined distance (slightly smaller than the thickness of the tab terminal), as shown in FIG. The first curved part forming area 5a is curved to expose its outer edge to the other edge side of the tab clamping part forming area 6a of No. 2, and the opposing guide protrusions 3a and 3b are each curved outward to form the slit forming part. First and second tab clamping portions 7a, 7b are formed above and below the center, and first and second curved portions 8a, 8b are formed on both sides, respectively.

The twin tab connector 10 to be connected to the twin tab receptacle 9 described above is made of copper, as shown in FIG.
By press punching an elastic metal plate such as phosphor bronze,
First and second tabs 13a and 13b extend above and below the mounting portion 12 provided with the cut-and-raised locking claws 11, respectively, and first and second tabs 13a and 13b are provided on the left and right sides of the mounting portion 12, respectively.
Then, a material with extended second locking pieces 14a and 14b was obtained, and as shown in FIG. The locking pieces 14a and 14b are bent at right angles to face each other.

As shown in FIG. 4, the housing 15 into which the twin tab receptacles and tab plugs are inserted is made up of a partition plate 16 with contact piece insertion holes 16a, 16b made of cast resin, partition plates 17a, 17b, 18a, 18
b, and one side is separated by a first recess 19a, 1
9b on the other side, second recesses 20a, 20b having a width approximately equal to the thickness of the twin tab receptacles and a third recess 21 communicating therewith are formed, and the partition plate 18
Holes or recesses 22a and 22b are provided at the ends of the holes 22a and 18, respectively.

The connector A of this invention is constituted by the above-mentioned members, and as shown in FIGS. 18b by using the elasticity of the twin tab receptacle 9.
The first tabs 13a of the twin-tab plugs 10 are inserted into the second tab clamping parts 7b of the twin tab connectors 10, respectively, and the mounting parts 12 are in contact with the partition plates 18a, 18b, and the holes or recesses 22a, 22b at the tips of the partition plates are inserted. is the locking claw 1
1 is locked, the twin tab receptacle 9 and the twin tab connector 10 will not rattle within the housing 15 and will not easily come off.

Figure 7 shows an example of how this connector A is used.
The housing has the same structure as the first and second recesses and partition plates 17a, 17b, 18a, and 18b shown in FIG. 4
The fuses B1 and B2 are inserted into the first recesses 19a and 19b, and their contact pieces are passed through the contact piece insertion holes 16a and 16b of the partition plate 16 into the first tab clamping part 7a. The four second tabs 13b in the third recess are connected to female plugs (not shown). In addition, the partition plates 18a, 18
If hooks 23, 23 are provided on b, the twin tab receptacles will not be pulled out and assembly will be easy.

As described above, this invention includes a first tab clamping part formed on an elastic conductive plate, and a first tab clamping part connected to one edge of the clamping part via a first curved part. a second tab clamping part that is opposed to the second tab clamping part at a predetermined distance from the second tab clamping part; a twin tab receptacle facing the edge of the clamping part; a first tab at one end of the mounting part and a second tab at the other end;
A twin-tab connector with a locking claw is inserted between each tab, and a hole or a The above-mentioned twin tab receptacle and twin tab connector are respectively inserted into the recess of the partition member provided with the recess, and the tab receptacle and the tab are individually engaged with the locking claw provided on the tab in the hole or recess. Since the tab receptacle and the tab can be made from different materials, it is easy to process and insert into the housing.Moreover, since the tab receptacle and the tab can be made from different materials, the material can be easily obtained and can be constructed at a low cost.
