摘要:
A terminal unit (TU) includes a battery terminal (2) mounted at the leading end of a wiring harness (4), and a holder (8) mounted on the wiring harness (4) at a position distanced from the battery terminal (2). A current sensor (12) is transported separately from the terminal unit (TU) to a connection site to a battery (B). The battery terminal (2) is introduced through the current sensor (12) and the current sensor (12) then is coupled with the holder (8) at the connection site. This operation is performed at a position distanced from the battery (B), and hence can be performed smoothly without being hindered.

A battery-side terminal (2) includes a fastening ring (5) to be fixed to a battery post (1), and a connecting piece (8) extends from the fastening ring (5). A current sensor (4) includes a sensor portion (4A) formed with a slit (14) through which the connecting piece (8) is insertable. The battery-side terminal (2) and the current (4) are transported to a connection site while being assembled into one unit. At the connection site, the connecting piece (8) and the harness-side terminal (3) are aligned and placed one over the other, and are tightened by means of a bolt. This tightening operation is performed at a position distanced from a battery, and hence can be performed smoothly performed without being hindered.

A terminal cap (10) is provided to prevent erroneous use of a booster cable to connect batteries that have different specifications. The terminal cap (10) is mounted to cover a battery terminal (T) to be connected with one of electrodes of a 32V-battery. The terminal cap (10) has protection walls (20) that extend from a first accommodating portion (11a) for accommodating a connecting portion (7) of the battery terminal (T). The protection walls (20) are formed to be higher than a threaded shaft (1) of the electrode. Thus, even if an attempt is made to erroneously connect a booster cable, the protection walls (20) will interfere with the booster cable and prevent connection with the electrode located inside the protection walls (20).

A battery (B) includes electrodes (11a, 11b) and engaging portions (10a, 10b) formed by recessing portions of the battery (B) around the electrodes (11a, 11b), and recesses (14a, 14b, 23a, 23b) are formed in side surfaces of the engaging portions (10a, 10b). The recesses (14a, 14b, 23a, 23b) are symmetrically arranged in the left and right engaging portions (10a, 10b). Transversely symmetrical identification pieces (19a, 19b) project from the leading ends of terminals (15a, 15b). In the case of a correct correspondence of the electrodes (11a, 11b) and the terminals (15a, 15b), the identification pieces (19a, 19b) fit into the recesses (14a, 14b, 23a, 23b), enabling assembling of the terminals (15a, 15b) with the electrodes (11a, 11b). In the case of an incorrect correspondence, the identification pieces (19a, 19b) cannot be fitted into the recesses (14a, 14b, 23a, 23b) and interfere with the upper surface of the battery (B), making assembling impossible.
摘要:
A connector has a housing main body (10) with a terminal accommodating portion (11) for accommodating terminal fittings (13). A holder (50) for supporting front ends of the terminal fittings (13) is assembled to the terminal accommodating portion (11), and a retainer (40) for locking the terminal fittings (13) is mounted laterally into the terminal accommodating portion (11). A detecting portion (45) is retracted from an opening (62) formed in the holder (50) when the retainer (40) is at a partial locking position, but is visible at the opening (62) when the retainer (40) reaches a full locking position.
摘要:
An electrical junction box has a fitting member for securing the junction box to a vehicle body. The fitting member has a breakdown accelerating portion for enhancing breakdown of the fitting member when the junction box is pulled to remove it from the vehicle body. The breakdown accelerating portion is positioned in a base side of the fitting piece. By a transverse force caused by pulling an associated wiring harness, the breakdown accelerating portion initiates breakdown of a bracket to separate the junction box from the bracket. Another fitting device has a fitting member formed on a junction box for securing the junction box to a vehicle body. The fitting member has a slot for enhancing breakdown of the fitting member when the junction box is pulled to remove the junction box from the vehicle body, and the fitting member has a compensating piece removably inserted into the slot for adjusting the breakdown of the fitting member.
摘要:
A connector is provided with a connector housing including one or more terminal housing chambers each including a first open end and a second open end; and one or more terminals each comprising a contact portion at a distal end thereof for contacting the opposite terminal and a solder tail extended from a proximal end thereof. The terminals are respectively housed in the terminal housing chambers with setting the distal ends thereof directed to the first open ends. Each terminal has a length so that the proximal end thereof reaches the same level as or protrudes from the second open end when the terminal is completely housed in the respective terminal housing chamber.

A connector housing (6) of the connector device (1) is composed of an outer housing (9) to be mounted onto a printed circuit board (2) by screwing, and an inner housing (8) connected to the outer housing (9) so as to be movable in the right and left direction with respect to the outer housing (9). Into the inner housing (8), there is incorporated a terminal (7) including a connecting portion (7a) to be connected by a terminal (5) of a mating connector device (3), a spring portion (7c), and a switch contact (7b) respectively formed integral with the terminal (7). On the printed circuit board (2), there is disposed an electrode (2a) with which the switch contact (7b) can be elastically contacted. Thanks to this structure, by switchingly moving the inner housing (8) in the right and left direction, circuit switching can be achieved.

A waterproof resilient plug (20) has a trunk portion (11) to be brought into close contact with the inner circumferential surface of a terminal insertion hole (C) and a fixing portion (12) extending from the leading end of the trunk (11) and to be pressed against the outer circumferential surface of a wire (W) by insulation barrels (20a). The plug (20) is formed along its longitudinal axis with a wire insertion hole (13) that can be brought into close resilient contact with the outer surface of the (W). An inner diameter of the wire insertion hole (13) aligned with the fixing portion (12) is smaller than the one at the side of trunk (11), whereby the fixing portion (12) can be held strongly in close contact with the outer surface of the wire (W).
摘要:
A metal terminal has a terminal body having a crimp part crimped to a wire and a fastening part connected to the terminal body through breaking parts. The fastening part has a through-hole for passage of a bolt. The metal terminal further includes a co-fastening part formed in the terminal body. The tip side of the co-fastening part is fastened to a vehicle body by the bolt, together with the fastening part. When detaching the terminal body from the vehicle body, one side of the one terminal body is pulled up in a direction opposite to the fastening direction of the bolt under condition that the fastening part and the co-fastening part are together fastened by the bolt. Consequently, the co-fastening part is released from its fastened condition and a breaking force is applied on the breaking parts.
