Abstract:
A connector with a connection verifying mechanism is made with a relatively small number of components, and to reduce movement of a locking member that undetachably fixes a counterpart for size reduction. The connector (1) includes a housing (3) having an insertion hole (4) into which a pipe (2) is inserted, a locking member (5) that is attached to the housing and driven from an initial position to a locked position by the pipe to undetachably fix the pipe at the locked position and an identifying member (6) that is provided in the housing and has display pieces (74, 74) that differ from the locking member in color, and the locking member shield the display pieces at the initial position and exposes the display pieces at the locked position.
Abstract:
A runner 5 including a striker 51 in a lower portion; a catcher 6 corresponding to the striker 51 and engaging a movable body 1 in a reference position R; and an urging device 7 storing an urging force when the catcher 6 is in the reference position R, are provided. The catcher 6 in the reference position R captures the striker 51 of the runner 5 stopped and engaged with a rail 2 in a self-propelling start position SA of the movable body 1, and upon this capture, an engagement between the catcher 6 and the movable body 1 is released. At the same time, due to a backward movement of the movable body 1 from the stop position SA, the catcher 6 is positioned in the reference position R again, and releases the striker 51 of the runner 5. An engagement between the runner 5 and the rail 2 is subsequently released.
Abstract:
When releasing a connection between a second tube member and a first tube member, a ring member is moved, whereby an inclined surface of a bump part and an inclined surface of a bump part of a cam part slide, and a stopper rotates from a coupled position to an uncoupled position. Thus, a coupling between a leading end part of a claw part of the stopper on the second tube member, and a coupling surface of a coupling-accepting part on the first tube member is released. In connecting the first and second tube members, when the first tube member is pushed into the second tube member with the ring member in the locked position, the claw part of the stopper is elastically deformed, whereby the leading end part of the claw part rides past the coupling-accepting part, and couples to the coupling surface of the coupling-accepting part.
Abstract:
A forward-moving mechanism of a movable body is provided with a receiving member placed movably inside a main body placed in a recessed area provided on either one of a movable body or a stationary body supporting the movable body to be capable of reciprocal movement, and linked to an assisting device for enabling the movable body to move forward up to a prescribed position; and a contact body provided on the other of the movable body and the stationary body contacting with the receiving member and moving inside the main body in the process of forward movement of the movable body. An area for movement of the receiving member in the main body includes a wall part for guiding the movement of the receiving member, and a device for preventing deformation of the wall part is provided adjacent to the wall part.
Abstract:
A movable member moved forward to a predetermined position can automatically move further forward. The mechanism includes first and second connecting members provided in the movable member and an immovable member. The second connecting member includes a catcher for catching the first connecting member and an urging device for urging the catcher. The catcher is arranged to be able to move or relatively move along a moving direction of the movable member, and held in a waiting position while receiving an urging force by the urging device toward a forward movement direction or backward movement direction of the movable member. When the movable member is moved to the predetermined position, the first connecting member is retained by the catcher of the second connecting member, and upon releasing of retention, the movable member is automatically moved forward to the stopped position by the urging force.
