(Clip 10)
In the figure, reference numeral 10 denotes a clip. The clip 10 holds the temperature sensor 20 and penetrates into and out of a case-like panel 30 containing a battery (not shown) as shown in FIGS. 1 and 2. It is attached to the panel hole 31.
As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the clip 10 is attached to the panel hole 31 of the panel 30 while holding the temperature sensor 20. The clip 10 is integrally formed of a thermoplastic synthetic resin having appropriate elasticity and rigidity, for example, POM (polyacetal).
As shown in FIGS. 1 to 8, the clip 10 is roughly divided into the following parts.
The following (1) to (3) will be described later.
(1) Head 50
(2) Leg 60
(3) Holding part 70
Each part of the clip 10 is not limited to the above (1) to (3).
(パネル30)
 パネル30は、図示しないが、ケース状に形成され、内部にはバッテリーが収納される。パネル30には、図1、図2、図9及び図10に示すように、内外、すなわち同図において上下方向に貫通した円形のパネル穴31を設けている。
 パネル穴31は、クリップ10の後述する脚部60を挿入可能なものであり、その内径を脚部60の外径以上、すなわち本実施の形態では、図11に示すように、クリップ10を取り外す際に、その脚部60をパネル穴31中で傾けることから、パネル穴31の内径を脚部60の外径より一回り大きく設定している。
 なお、パネル30は、取付部材である温度センサー20を取り付ける被取付部材であり、被取付部材として、パネル30を例示したが、これに限定されない。また、パネル30を、ケース状に形成したが、これに限定されない。さらに、パネル穴31を、円形に形成したが、これに限定されず、楕円形、長円形、或いは方形や他の多角形に形成しても良い。

The later-described leg 60 of the clip 10 and the sensor body 21 of the temperature sensor 20 are positioned inside the hollow of the protective cylinder 40. As shown in FIG. 11, when the clip 10 is removed, the leg 60 and the sensor are removed. Since the main body 21 is inclined in the hollow interior of the protective cylinder 40, the hollow interior of the protective cylinder 40 is set to a size that allows the leg portion 60 and the sensor main body 21 to be inclined.
(温度センサー20)

(How to install temperature sensor 20)
Next, a method for attaching the temperature sensor 20 using the clip 10 having the above-described configuration will be described.
 クリップ10に温度センサー20を装着し、その後、温度センサー20を保持したクリップ10を、パネル30のパネル穴31に取り付けても良いし、或いはクリップ10をパネル穴31に先に取り付け、その後、パネル穴31に固定されたクリップ10に対して温度センサー20を装着しても良い。
 本実施の形態の説明においては、前者の取付方法を例に挙げて説明する。
Attach the temperature sensor 20 to the clip 10 and then attach the clip 10 holding the temperature sensor 20 to the panel hole 31 of the panel 30 or attach the clip 10 to the panel hole 31 first, and then the panel The temperature sensor 20 may be attached to the clip 10 fixed in the hole 31.
In the description of this embodiment, the former attachment method will be described as an example.
 まず、クリップ10に温度センサー20を装着する。
 温度センサー20のセンサー本体21の先端部を、図2に示すように、クリップ10の保持部70の開口上面に合わせて挿入する。
 温度センサー20を挿入すると、その張出部22が保持部70の中空内部にはまり込み、その外周面が2個の爪状の係止部73に当接する。
First, the temperature sensor 20 is attached to the clip 10.
The tip of the sensor body 21 of the temperature sensor 20 is inserted in accordance with the upper surface of the opening of the holding part 70 of the clip 10 as shown in FIG.
When the temperature sensor 20 is inserted, the overhanging portion 22 fits into the hollow inside of the holding portion 70, and the outer peripheral surface abuts against the two claw-like locking portions 73.
 ここで、張出部22を強く押し込むと、その外周面で爪状の係止部73を押圧する。このため、爪状の係止部73が、保持部70の半径方向外向きに撓むことで、張出部22の通過が可能となる。
 張出部22が、爪状の係止部73を通過すると、係止部73が樹脂の弾性復元力によりパチンと復元し、張出部22の上面に引っ掛かることから、保持部70の開口上面から抜けなくなる。また、その際に、張出部22の下面が段部71の上面に載置され、張出部22は、係止部73と段部71との間に上下方向から弾性的にはさみ持たれる。
Here, when the overhanging portion 22 is pushed in strongly, the claw-like locking portion 73 is pressed on the outer peripheral surface thereof. For this reason, the claw-like locking portion 73 bends outward in the radial direction of the holding portion 70, thereby allowing the overhang portion 22 to pass.
When the overhanging portion 22 passes through the claw-like engaging portion 73, the engaging portion 73 is snapped by the elastic restoring force of the resin and is caught on the upper surface of the overhanging portion 22. It will not come out of. At that time, the lower surface of the overhanging portion 22 is placed on the upper surface of the stepped portion 71, and the overhanging portion 22 is elastically sandwiched between the locking portion 73 and the stepped portion 71 from above and below. .
 なお、係止部73が復元する際に、節度感が発生する。
 また、温度センサー20のセンサー本体21の先端部は、保持部70の開口下面から突出する。
 つぎに、温度センサー20を保持したクリップ10の脚部60を、パネル30のパネル穴31に合わせて挿入する。
A moderation feeling is generated when the locking portion 73 is restored.
Further, the tip end portion of the sensor body 21 of the temperature sensor 20 protrudes from the lower surface of the opening of the holding portion 70.
Next, the leg portion 60 of the clip 10 holding the temperature sensor 20 is inserted into the panel hole 31 of the panel 30.
 脚部60を挿入すると、その周囲から突出する2個の係合部61がパネル穴31の周囲に当接する。
 ここで、脚部60を強く押し込むと、2個の係合部61がパネル穴31の内縁に押されて、図9に示すように、保持部70の半径方向内向きに撓むことで、2個の係合部61の通過が可能となる。
When the leg portion 60 is inserted, the two engaging portions 61 projecting from the periphery of the leg portion 60 come into contact with the periphery of the panel hole 31.
Here, when the leg portion 60 is pushed in strongly, the two engaging portions 61 are pushed against the inner edge of the panel hole 31 and bent inward in the radial direction of the holding portion 70 as shown in FIG. The two engaging portions 61 can pass through.
 2個の係合部61がパネル穴31を通過すると、パネル30の内側、すなわち本実施の形態では図10の下側において樹脂の弾性復元力により係合部61が復元して拡径し、係合部61がパネル穴31から上方に向かって抜けなくなる。
 また、その際に、頭部50の下面がパネル30の外面、すなわち本実施の形態では図10の上側の上面に載置され、頭部50の下面と係合部61との間で上下方向からパネル30が弾性的にはさみ持たれる。
When the two engaging portions 61 pass through the panel hole 31, the engaging portion 61 is restored and expanded in diameter by the elastic restoring force of the resin inside the panel 30, that is, in the lower side of FIG. The engaging portion 61 cannot be removed upward from the panel hole 31.
At that time, the lower surface of the head 50 is placed on the outer surface of the panel 30, that is, the upper surface on the upper side in FIG. The panel 30 is sandwiched elastically.
 こうして、温度センサー20は、図1に示すように、クリップ10を介して、パネル30のパネル穴31に固定される。
(温度センサー20の取り外し方法)
 つぎに、温度センサー20の取り外し方法について説明する。
 温度センサー20を取り外す際には、図11に示すように、クリップ10をパネル30に対して傾斜させれば良い。
Thus, the temperature sensor 20 is fixed to the panel hole 31 of the panel 30 through the clip 10 as shown in FIG.
(How to remove the temperature sensor 20)
Next, a method for removing the temperature sensor 20 will be described.
When removing the temperature sensor 20, the clip 10 may be inclined with respect to the panel 30 as shown in FIG.
 クリップ10は、切欠部52の有る方向に向けて頭部50を傾ける。クリップ10を傾けると、切欠部52の有る側の凸部51を支点としてパネル30に対して頭部50が傾斜し、切欠部52の無い反対側の凸部51がパネル30の外面、すなわち本実施の形態では図11の上側の上面から浮上する。
 このとき、脚部60がパネル穴31中で傾斜することで、脚部60の外周より突出する係合部61の自由端部側の外側面がパネル穴31の内周面に押され、図9に示すように、半径方向内向きに撓むことで、2個の係合部61がパネル穴31を通過可能となる。
The clip 10 tilts the head 50 toward the direction in which the notch 52 is present. When the clip 10 is tilted, the head 50 is inclined with respect to the panel 30 with the convex portion 51 on the side where the notch 52 is present as a fulcrum, and the opposite convex portion 51 without the notch 52 is the outer surface of the panel 30, that is In the embodiment, it floats from the upper surface in FIG.
At this time, since the leg portion 60 is inclined in the panel hole 31, the outer surface on the free end portion side of the engaging portion 61 protruding from the outer periphery of the leg portion 60 is pushed to the inner peripheral surface of the panel hole 31, As shown in FIG. 9, the two engaging portions 61 can pass through the panel hole 31 by bending inward in the radial direction.
 このため、クリップ10を傾けた状態で、その脚部60をパネル穴31から引き抜くことで、クリップ10をパネル30から取り外すことができる。
 このようにして取り外すことで、パネル30の外面、すなわち本実施の形態では図11の上側の上面側からの操作だけでクリップ10を取り外すことが可能である。
 なお、パネル30の内面、すなわち本実施の形態では図11の下側の下面側からの操作が可能な場合には、係合部61を手で撓めてパネル穴31から引き抜くことも可能なことは勿論である。
Therefore, the clip 10 can be detached from the panel 30 by pulling out the leg portion 60 from the panel hole 31 in a state where the clip 10 is inclined.
By removing in this way, it is possible to remove the clip 10 only by an operation from the outer surface of the panel 30, that is, the upper surface in FIG. 11 in the present embodiment.
In addition, when the operation from the inner surface of the panel 30, that is, the lower surface of the lower side in FIG. 11 is possible in this embodiment, the engaging portion 61 can be bent by hand and pulled out from the panel hole 31. Of course.
 こうして、取り外したクリップ10は、温度センサー20を保持した状態で、パネル穴31に再度、取り付けることもできるし、或いは取り外したクリップ10から温度センサー20を取り外し、温度センサー20を交換した後、パネル穴31に取り付けることもできる。
 2011年9月13日に出願された日本特許出願第2011-199846号の明細書、特許請求の範囲、図面及び要約書の全内容をここに引用し、本発明の明細書の開示として、取り入れるものである。
In this way, the removed clip 10 can be reattached to the panel hole 31 while holding the temperature sensor 20, or the temperature sensor 20 is removed from the removed clip 10 and the temperature sensor 20 is replaced. It can also be attached to the hole 31.
