Description

圧着端子
　本発明は、電線に接続する圧着端子に関する。
　この種の従来例の圧着端子として、特許文献１に開示されたものがある。図６、７に示すように、従来の圧着端子１１０が接続される電線Ｗは、複数の素線１０１ａからなる芯線１０１と、芯線１０１の外周を覆う絶縁外皮１０２とを備える。電線Ｗの先端側は、絶縁外皮１０２が除去されて、芯線１０１が露出されている。
　圧着端子１１０は、相手端子接続部１１１と、電線接続部１１５とを備える。電線接続部１１５は、芯線圧着部１１６と、外皮圧着部１１７とを備える。芯線圧着部１１６は、第１基底部１１６ａと、第１基底部１１６ａの両側から延設された一対の第１圧着片部１１６ｂとを備える。芯線圧着部１１６の第１基底部１１６ａと一対の第１圧着片部１１６ｂの内面には、三本の長溝（セレーション）１１８が形成されている。長溝１１８は、芯線１０１の軸方向の直交方向を長手方向として配置されている。外皮圧着部１１７は、第２基底部１１７ａと、第２基底部１１７ａの両側から延設された一対の第２圧着片部１１７ｂとを備える。
　圧着端子１１０は、芯線圧着部１１６によって露出された芯線１０１を圧着し、外皮圧着部１１７によって絶縁外皮１０２を圧着している。
特開２００９－１２３６２３号公報(JP 2009-123623 A)
　しかしながら、従来例の圧着端子１１０では、図８に示すように、セレーションとしての長溝１１８が圧着状態において互いに対向する位置に配置されている。このため、長溝１１８の位置では圧着力が低下する。すると、各素線１０１ａに伸びによる新生面が発生し難く、凝着が発生しない。そして、各素線１０１ａの間に凝着が発生しないと、素線１０１ａの間の導通特性が向上せず、電気接続箇所の電気抵抗が高くなるという問題があった。
　本発明は、前記した課題を解決すべくなされたものであり、電線との電気接続箇所における電気抵抗を低減できる圧着端子を提供することを目的とする。
　本発明の態様に係る圧着端子は、電線の複数の素線からなる芯線を圧着し、前記芯線が配置される面に前記芯線の軸方向の直交方向に沿って伸びるセレーションを設けた芯線圧着部を備える。セレーションは、芯線圧着部が芯線に圧着されたときに互いに対向する面に配置されると共に、芯線の軸方向に対して互いにずれた位置に設けられた断面凸形状を有する中央セレーション部と端セレーション部を備える。
　中央セレーション部及び前記端セレーション部は、先端にエッジを有する断面凸形状であっても良い。
　本発明の態様に係る圧着端子によれば、圧着加工による圧縮力によって、中央セレーション部と端セレーション部が芯線の軸方向に交互に芯線に食い込む。このため、芯線が食い込みによって大きく変形し、各素線に伸びによる新生面が発生する。また、中央セレーション部と端セレーション部が、断面凸形状で、且つ、互いに対向する面に位置することから圧縮力が増すため、芯線に大きな圧着力が作用する。つまり、各素線の伸びによる新生面の発生と、各素線への圧縮力の増加とによって凝着が発生し、素線間の導通特性が向上する。以上より、電気接続箇所の電気抵抗が低減する。

　以下、実施形態に係る圧着端子について、図１－５に基づいて説明する。
　図１、２に示すように、電線Ｗは、複数の素線１ａからなる芯線１と、芯線１の外周を覆う絶縁外皮２とを備える。電線Ｗの先端側は、絶縁外皮２が除去されて芯線１が露出されている。芯線１は、アルミニウム製又はアルミニウム合金製（以下、アルミ製）の多数の素線１ａからなり、多数の組成１ａが互いに撚られている。つまり、電線Ｗは、アルミ電線である。
　圧着端子１０は、銅合金製であり、所定形状に裁断したプレートを折り曲げ加工することによって形成されている。圧着端子１０は、相手端子接続部１１と、電線接続部１５とを備える。電線接続部１５は、芯線圧着部１６と、外皮圧着部１７とを備える。芯線圧着部１６は、第１基底部１６ａと、第１基底部１６ａの両側から延設された一対の第１圧着片部１６ｂとを備える。
　芯線圧着部１６の第１基底部１６ａと一対の第１圧着片部１６ｂの内面（芯線１が圧着される面）には、複数のセレーション１８が形成されている。各セレーション１８は、図３（ａ）、３（ｂ）に詳しく示すように、芯線１の軸方向の直交方向Ｃ２に沿って伸びている。セレーション１８は、芯線圧着部１６が芯線１に圧着されたときに互いに対向する面に配置された中央セレーション部１８ａと左右一対の端セレーション部１８ｂを備える。具体的には、中央セレーション部１８ａは第１基底部１６ａに設けられ、左右一対の端セレーション部１８ｂは一対の第１圧着片部１６ｂに設けられている。中央セレーション部１８ａと左右一対の端セレーション部１８ｂは、芯線１の軸方向に対して互いにずれた位置に設けられている。中央セレーション部１８ａ及び端セレーション部１８ｂは、側方から見て三角形の断面凸形状を有し、断面凸形状の先端（三角形の頂点に相当）にエッジを有する。
　外皮圧着部１７は、第２基底部１７ａと、第２基底部１７ａの両側から延設された一対の第２圧着片部１７ｂとを備える。
　圧着端子１０は、芯線圧着部１６によって露出された芯線１を外側から包み込んだ状態で圧着し、外皮圧着部１７によって絶縁外皮２を圧着している。
　圧着端子１０は、図４に示すような圧着用治具２０によって圧着される。圧着用治具２０は、その圧着先端側に最終的な圧着外周形状の圧着溝２１を有する。図５に示すように、圧着用治具２０によって一対の第１圧着片部１６ｂを上方から押圧すると、圧着溝２１に沿って一対の第１圧着片部１６ｂが塑性変形される。
　この圧着過程では、芯線圧着部１６より芯線１が圧縮力を受ける。この圧縮力によって、図２（ｃ）に示すように、中央セレーション部１８ａと端セレーション部１８ｂが芯線１の軸方向Ｃ１に交互に芯線１に食い込む。このように、中央セレーション部１８ａと端セレーション部１８ｂが芯線１に食い込むことによって、芯線１が大きく変形し、各素線１０１ａに伸びによる新生面が発生する。又、中央セレーション部１８ａと端セレーション部１８ｂが断面凸形状で、且つ、互いに対向する面（芯線１の上と下の面）に位置するため、芯線１への圧縮力が増す。このため、芯線１に大きな圧着力が作用する。つまり、各素線１ａの伸びによる新生面の発生と、各素線１ａへの圧縮力の増加とによって凝着が発生し、素線１ａ間の導通特性が向上する。以上より、電気接続箇所の電気抵抗が低減する。
　芯線圧着部１６の内面に接触、若しくは、近接する各素線１ａは、中央セレーション部１８ａ及び端セレーション部１８ｂに食い込む。このため、芯線１と芯線圧着部１６間の凝着も発生し、且つ、促進される。従って、芯線１と芯線圧着部１６（圧着端子１０）の間の導通抵抗の低減になる。これによっても、電気接続箇所の電気抵抗が低減する。又、各素線１ａが中央セレーション部１８ａ及び端セレーション部１８ｂに食い込む。このため、芯線１と芯線圧着部１６間の引っ張り強度の向上（機械的強度の向上）にもなる。
　圧着端子１０の一部をこのように設計変更することによって、電気接続箇所における芯線１の導通特性を向上させることができる。このため、単線化等に較べてほとんどコストアップなしに電気接続箇所の電気抵抗を低減できる。
　中央セレーション部１８ａ及び端セレーション部１８ｂは、断面三角形状であり、先端にエッジをそれぞれ有するため、素線１ａに確実に食い込む。これにより、凝着の発生が向上する。
　芯線１は、アルミ製である。アルミ製の素線１ａは、銅合金製に較べて表面にできる酸化被膜が厚い。そのため、アルミ製の芯線１は、素線１ａ間の導通抵抗による電気抵抗の増加が問題であった。これに対し、実施形態に係る圧着端子１０では、素線１ａ間の導通抵抗を低減できるため、特にアルミ電線に有効である。アルミ製の芯線１は、銅合金製に較べて柔らかくて伸び易いが、上記した理由によって芯線圧着部１６の圧着による圧縮力が芯線１に効率良く作用させることができる。このため、実施形態に係る圧着端子１０は、この観点からも特にアルミ電線に有効である。
（変形例）
　実施形態に係る圧着端子１０では、中央セレーション部１８ａ、端セレーション部１８ｂは、断面三角凸形状であるが、断面凸形状であれば良く、先端にエッジが形成される形状であることが好ましい。
　実施形態に係る圧着端子１０では、芯線１がアルミ製であるが、アルミ製以外の芯線１（例えば銅合金製）であってもよい。
　本発明によれば、電線との電気接続箇所における電気抵抗を低減できる圧着端子を提供することができる。
