Abstract

PURPOSE: A structure of terminal port in vehicle is provided to enhance a contact force by using two kinds of bimetal, one of which is well bent at a high temperature and other of which is well bent at a low temperature, the one as upper side contact section and the other as lower side contact section, and to constantly maintain a strong contact force. CONSTITUTION: A pair of elastic contact sections(6,7) are coupled on an upper and lower sides of an inside surface of a female terminal(2) to elastically hold a male terminal(3). The upper side elastic contact section(6) is a bimetal having an elasticity coefficient which is well bent at a high temperature. The lower side elastic contact section(7) is a bimetal having an elasticity coefficient which is well bent at a low temperature. If it is high temperature, the upper side elastic contact section(6) of the female terminal(2) is elastically well bent, whereby contraction of the lower side elastic contact section(7) due to the high temperature can be supplemented. In consequence, the contact condition of the male terminal(3) which is inserted into the female terminal(2) at the high temperature is prevented from becoming defected. At a lower temperature, the lower side elastic contact section(7) of the female terminal(2) is elastically well bent, whereby contraction of the upper side elastic contact section(6) due to the lower temperature can be supplemented. In consequence, the contact condition of the male terminal(3) which is inserted into the female terminal(2) at the low temperature is prevented from becoming defected.

이하에서는 양호한 실시예를 도시한 첨부 도면과 관련하여 본 발명의 자동차용 터미널 단자의 구조를 상세하게 설명한다.DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS Hereinafter, the structure of a vehicle terminal terminal for an automobile of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings showing preferred embodiments.

본 발명의 도면 전체를 통하여 동일한 부분에는 동일한 도면 부호를 사용하기로 한다.Throughout the drawings of the present invention will be used the same reference numerals for the same parts.

도 3 에는 본 발명에 따른 자동차용 터미널 단자의 구조가 도시되어 있는데, 이 자동차용 터미널 단자의 구조(1)는, 수 터미널단자(3)와, 수 터미널단자(3)가 삽입 결합되는 암 터미널단자(2)를 포함한다.3 shows a structure of a vehicle terminal terminal according to the present invention, the structure (1) of the vehicle terminal terminal, the male terminal 3 and the male terminal that the male terminal 3 is inserted and coupled And a terminal 2.

그리고, 상기 암 터미널단자(2)의 내측면 상하측에는, 삽입되는 수 터미널단자(3)를 탄성적으로 홀딩하기 위한 한 쌍의 탄성 접촉편(6,7)이 결합되는데, 상기 상측 탄성 접촉편(6)은 높은 열에서 상기 하측 탄성 접촉편(7)보다 많이 휘어지는 탄성계수를 갖는 바이메탈 금속으로 구성되며, 상기 하측 탄성 접촉편(7)은 낮은 열에서 상기 상측 탄성 접촉편(6)보다 많이 휘어지는 탄성계수를 갖는 바이메탈 금속으로 구성된다.In addition, a pair of elastic contact pieces 6 and 7 for elastically holding the male terminal terminal 3 to be inserted are coupled to upper and lower sides of the inner surface of the female terminal terminal 2. (6) is made of a bimetal metal having an elastic modulus that bends more than the lower elastic contact piece (7) at high heat, and the lower elastic contact piece (7) is more than the upper elastic contact piece (6) at low heat. It consists of a bimetallic metal with a flexural modulus.

상기와 같이 구성된 자동차용 터미널 단자의 구조의 작동을 이하에서 설명한다.The operation of the structure of the vehicle terminal terminal configured as described above will be described below.

높은 온도의 경우, 암 터미널단자(2)의 상측 탄성 접촉편(6)이 탄성적으로 크게 휘어지게 됨으로써 하측 탄성 접촉편(7)이 높은 온도에 의해 수축되는 것을 보완할 수 있게 되며, 이에 따라, 높은 온도에서 암 터미널단자(2)에 삽입된 수 터미널단자(3)의 접촉상태가 불량해지는 것을 방지할 수 있게 된다.In the case of high temperature, the upper elastic contact piece 6 of the female terminal terminal 2 is flexibly elastically bent to compensate for the contraction of the lower elastic contact piece 7 by the high temperature. The contact state of the male terminal 3 inserted into the female terminal 2 at a high temperature can be prevented from becoming poor.

또한, 낮은 온도의 경우, 암 터미널단자(2)의 하측 탄성 접촉편(7)이 탄성적으로 크게 휘어지게 됨으로써 상측 탄성 접촉편(6)이 낮은 온도에 의해 수축되는 것을 보완할 수 있게 되며, 이에 따라, 낮은 온도에서 암 터미널단자(2)에 삽입된 수 터미널단자(3)의 접촉상태가 불량해지는 것을 방지할 수 있게 되는 것이다.In addition, in the case of low temperature, the lower elastic contact piece 7 of the female terminal terminal 2 is bent large elastically to compensate for the contraction of the upper elastic contact piece 6 by the low temperature, Accordingly, the contact state of the male terminal 3 inserted into the female terminal 2 at a low temperature can be prevented from becoming poor.

본 발명의 상기한 바와 같은 구성에 따라, 암 터미널단자의 상측 탄성 접촉편은 높은 열에서 많이 휘어지는 바이메탈 금속으로 형성하고, 그 하측 탄성 접촉편은 낮은 온도에서 많이 휘어지는 바이메탈 금속으로 형성함으로써, 높은 온도에서는 상측 탄성 접촉편이 크게 휘어지면서 탄성 접촉력을 증대시키고, 낮은 온도에서는 하측 탄성 접촉편이 크게 휘어지면서 탄성 접촉력을 증대시키게 되며, 이에 따라, 온도의 높고 낮음에 관계없이 암수 터미널단자가 항상 강한 접촉력을 유지할 수 있게 되는 효과가 얻어진다.According to the above-described configuration of the present invention, the upper elastic contact piece of the female terminal terminal is formed of bimetal metal that bends a lot in high heat, and the lower elastic contact piece is formed of bimetal metal that bends a lot in low temperature. In this case, the upper elastic contact piece bends largely to increase elastic contact force. At low temperatures, the lower elastic contact piece bends largely to increase elastic contact force. Accordingly, the male and female terminal terminals maintain strong contact force at all times regardless of high and low temperatures. The effect which becomes possible is obtained.
