【発明の属する分野】
本発明は、余長調整構造を有するフラット回路体に係り、例えばワイヤハーネスに取付けた待受けコネクタの位置を調整するためにワイヤハーネスに弛みを持たせることができる余長調整構造を有するフラット回路体に関する。
【0002】
【従来の技術】
従来より、自動車のインストルメントパネル(以下、「インパネ」という)には、計器類やエアコンなどの電装品が取り付けられており、これらの電装品は待受けコネクタを介してワイヤハーネスに電気的に接続されている。
【0003】
ところで、インパネに取り付けた電装品は接続端子が許容範囲内で僅かにずれる場合があり、電装品の接続端子のずれに合わせて待受けコネクタの接続端子を調芯する必要がある。特に、計器板やエアコン操作部などはインパネカウルに直接取付けるので、接続端子のずれが比較的大きく、このずれに合わせるために待受けコネクタの位置を調整する必要がある。
【0004】
待受けコネクタ位置を調整するためには、待受けコネクタにつないだワイヤハーネスを予め弛ませておき、この弛みを利用して待受けコネクタを移動させる構造が必要でる。以下、この構造を「ワイヤハーネスの余長調整構造」という。ワイヤハーネスの余長調整構造は、例えば特開平7−69141号公報「ステアリングコラムのワイヤーハーネス案内装置」に示されている。次図で、同公報のワイヤハーネスの余長調整構造について説明する。
【0005】
図9に示すように、ワイヤハーネスの余長調整構造は、本体80の内側に3個の可撓リブ81を互い違いに設け、ワイヤハーネス82を波形に湾曲させて可撓リブ81にセットするものである。これにより、ワイヤハーネス82の湾曲部83を予め弛ませた状態で余長調整構造にセットすることができる。
【0006】
図10に示すように、ワイヤハーネス82が矢印の方向に引っ張られると、可撓リブ81が撓んでワイヤハーネス82の湾曲部83が直線に伸長する。また、ワイヤハーネス82の引張り力が解消されると、図9に示すように可撓リブ81が撓んだ状態から復元して、可撓リブ81の復元力でワイヤハーネス82を弛ませた状態に戻す。
【0007】
【発明が解決しようとする課題】
しかし、従来のワイヤハーネスの余長調整構造は、可撓リブ81が本体80に互い違いに設けれており、ワイヤハーネス82を波形に湾曲させて可撓リブ81に装填する必要がある。このため、ワイヤハーネス82を余長調整構造にセットする際には、ワイヤハーネス82を波形に蛇行させた状態で装填する必要がある。
【0008】
従って、ワイヤハーネス82を余長調整構造に装填する作業に手間がかかるので、配索作業性が悪い。特に、ワイヤハーネス82が広幅のフラット形状の場合、ワイヤハーネス82を余長調整構造に装填することは非常に困難である。
【0009】
本発明は、前述した問題点に鑑みてなされたものであり、その目的はフラット形状の広幅ワイヤハーネスを弛ませた状態に簡単にセットすることができるフラット回路体の余長調整構造を提供することにある。
【0010】
【課題を解決するための手段】
前述した目的を達成するために、本発明は、フラット回路体の余長を調整するために、フラット回路体を厚み方向に挟む第1板部材および第2板部材と、第1板部材からフラット回路体の幅方向に沿って延びるとともにフラット回路体を厚み方向に押圧する第1押圧部と、第2板部材からフラット回路体の幅方向に沿って延びるとともにフラット回路体を厚み方向に押圧する第2押圧部とを有し、第1押圧部および第2押圧部がフラット回路体の長手方向に沿って互いに位置がずれた状態に配置されていることを特徴としている。
【0011】
このように構成されたフラット回路体の余長調整構造においては、第1板部材および第2板部材をフラット回路体を挟むように配置し、第1、第2板部材に第1、第2押圧部を位相配置した。
従って、第1板部材および第2板部材でフラット回路体を挟むだけで、第1押圧部および第2押圧部がフラット回路体を押圧することができる。このため、フラット回路体を湾曲状に保つことができる。
【0012】
【発明の実施の形態】
以下、本発明に係る実施の形態を図面に基づいて詳細に説明する。図1は本発明に係る第1実施の形態を示すフラット回路体の余長調整構造の斜視図、図2は本発明に係る第1実施の形態を示すフラット回路体の余長調整構造の分解斜視図、図3は本発明に係る第1実施の形態を示すフラット回路体の余長調整構造の分解正面図、図4は本発明に係る第1実施の形態を示すフラット回路体の余長調整構造の正面図である。
【0013】
図1に示すように、ワイヤハーネス幹線10は複数のワイヤハーネス11を束ねたもので、フラット回路体12はワイヤハーネス幹線10から分岐した複数本のワイヤハーネス11をフラット状に並べたものである。
フラット回路体12の中央には待受けコネクタ14が取付けられ、待受けコネクタ14の左右端に本発明に係るフラット回路体の余長調整構造20(左右のフラット回路体の余長調整構造20,30)が備えられている。
【0014】
図2に示すように、待受けコネクタ14は、下コネクタ15と上コネクタ18との間にフラット回路体12を挟持するもので、フラット回路体12のワイヤハーネス11をバスバ16に接続したものである。
【0015】
下コネクタ15は、略矩形状に形成した部材で、上面に複数の保持部17を取り付け、保持部17に圧接刃(図示せず)備え、圧接刃に複数のバスバ16を接続させたものである。
上コネクタ18は、下コネクタ15と同様に略矩形状に形成した部材で、下コネクタ15に係止可能なロック爪19を四隅に形成したものである。
【0016】
待受けコネクタ14によれば、ワイヤハーネス11を下コネクタ15の保持部17に押付けることで、ワイヤハーネス11の絶縁体が圧接刃で切断されて圧接刃にワイヤハーネス11の導体が接触し、圧接刃を介してワイヤハーネス11の導体をバスバ16に接続させることができる。そして、下コネクタ15に上コネクタ18を被せて、ロック爪19を下コネクタ15に係止させることにより、下コネクタ16に上コネクタ18を取付けることができる。
【0017】
図2及び図3に示すように、左側のフラット回路体の余長調整構造20は、フラット回路体12を厚み方向に挟む第1板部材21および第2板部材24と、第1板部材21からフラット回路体12の幅方向に沿って延びるとともにフラット回路体12を厚み方向に押圧する第1押圧部22と、第2板部材24からフラット回路体12の幅方向に沿って延びるとともにフラット回路体12を厚み方向に押圧する第2押圧部25とを有し、第1押圧部22および第2押圧部25がフラット回路体12の長手方向に沿って位相配置されたもので、フラット回路体12の余長を調整するものである。
なお、右側のフラット回路体の余長調整構造30は、左側のフラット回路体の余長調整構造20と同一部材で構成されているので、同一符号を付して説明を省略する。
【0018】
第1板部材21は上コネクタ18の左端部に形成された可撓性部材であり、第2板部材24は下コネクタ15の左端部に第1板部材21より長く形成された可撓性部材である。
第1押圧部22は第1板部材21の先端に取付けた部材で、第2押圧部25は第2板部材24の先端に取付けた部材である。
【0019】
第2板部材24は第1板部材21より長く形成されているので、第2押圧部25は第1押圧部22と比べて待受けコネクタ14から離れた位置に配置される。このため、第2押圧部25と第1押圧部22とは互いにずれた状態に配置される。
このように、待受けコネクタ14の左右端に左右のフラット回路体の余長調整構造20,30を一体に備えたので、部品点数を削減することができる。
【0020】
図4に示すように、左側のフラット回路体の余長調整構造20によれば、下コネクタ15を上コネクタ18に取付けることにより、第1板部材21の第1押圧部22と第2板部材24の第2押圧部25とでフラット回路体12を厚み方向に押圧するので、待受けコネクタ14の左側のフラット回路体12は波形状に保たれる。
また、待受けコネクタ14の右側のフラット回路体12は、右側のフラット回路体の余長調整構造30で、左側のフラット回路体の余長調整構造20と同様に波形状に保たれる。
【0021】
従って、第1板部材21および第2板部材24でフラット回路体12を挟むだけで、第1押圧部22および第2押圧部25がフラット回路体12を押圧することができる。このため、フラット回路体12を湾曲状態に保つことができる。この結果、フラット形状の広幅ワイヤハーネスのフラット回路体12を湾曲状に蛇行させた状態に簡単にセットすることができる。
【0022】
次に、図5〜図6に基づいてフラット回路体の余長調整構造の作用を説明する。
図5に示すように、待受けコネクタ14を矢印方向(左側)に移動すると、待受けコネクタ14の右側のフラット回路体12が左側に引っ張られる。従って、待受けコネクタ14の右側のフラット回路体12が湾曲状態から直線になり、右側の第1板部材21および右側の第2板部材24が湾曲状に撓む。従って、第1板部材21の第1押圧部22と第2板部材24の第2押圧部25が外側に広がる。これにより、待受けコネクタ14を左側に移動したP1位置にセットすることができる。
【0023】
図6に示すように、待受けコネクタ14をP1位置からP2位置まで矢印方向(右側)に移動すると、待受けコネクタ14の左側のフラット回路体12が右側に引っ張られる。従って、待受けコネクタ14の左側のフラット回路体12が湾曲状態から直線になり、左側の第1板部材21および左側の第2板部材24が湾曲状に撓む。従って、第1板部材21の第1押圧部22と第2板部材24の第2押圧部25が外側に広がる。
【0024】
一方、右側のフラット回路体12に弛みが生じる。このため、右側の第1板部材21および右側の第2板部材24が湾曲状に撓んだ状態から直線状に復元して、第1板部材21の第1押圧部22と第2板部材24の第2押圧部25とで右側のフラット回路体12を厚み方向に押圧する。従って、待受けコネクタ14の右側のフラット回路体12を波形に蛇行させた状態に保つことができる。
【0025】
次に、第2〜第3実施の形態について説明する。なお、第1実施の形態と同一部材については同一符号を付して説明を省略する。
図7に示すように、左右のフラット回路体の余長調整構造20,30は、積層した第1〜第4のフラット回路体41,42,43,44のうちの第1フラット回路体41および第2フラット回路体43に適用したものである。
この場合でも、第1実施の形態と同様に待受けコネクタ14を左右方向に移動させて電装品の端子に合わせることができる。
【0026】
図8に示すように、第3の実施の形態のフラット回路体の余長調整構造50は、ワイヤハーネス幹線51から分岐したワイヤハーネス52に適用したものである。
第3の実施の形態のフラット回路体の余長調整構造50を備えることで、待受けコネクタ54のバスバ55をワイヤハーネス幹線51に対して直交する方向に移動させて電装品の端子に合わせることができる。
ここで、フラット回路体の余長調整構造50はフラット回路体の余長調整構造20と同一構成なので説明を省略する。また、待受けコネクタ54は待受けコネクタ14とほぼ同じ構成なので説明を省略する。
【0027】
なお、本発明のフラット回路体の余長調整構造20は、前述した実施の形態に限定されるものでなく、適宜な変形,改良等が可能である。
例えば、前述した各実施の形態は、一例としてインパネに取付けたワイヤハーネス幹線にフラット回路体の余長調整構造20を採用した例を説明したが、その他のワイヤハーネスに適用しても同様の効果を得ることができる。
また、前記実施の形態では、本発明のフラット回路体の余長調整構造20をフラット形状の広幅ワイヤハーネスのフラット回路体に採用した例を説明したが、その他のワイヤハーネスに適用しても同様の効果を得ることができる。
【0028】
【発明の効果】
以上、説明したように、本発明によれば、フラット回路体の余長を調整するために、フラット回路体を厚み方向に挟む第1板部材および第2板部材と、第1板部材からフラット回路体の幅方向に沿って延びるとともにフラット回路体を厚み方向に押圧する第1押圧部と、第2板部材からフラット回路体の幅方向に沿って延びるとともにフラット回路体を厚み方向に押圧する第2押圧部とを有し、第1押圧部および第2押圧部がフラット回路体の長手方向に沿って互いに位置がずれた状態に配置されていることを特徴とする。
【0029】
このように構成されたフラット回路体の余長調整構造においては、第1板部材および第2板部材をフラット回路体を挟むよう配置し、第1、第2板部材に第1、第2押圧部を互いに位置がずれた状態に配置した。
この構成によれば、第1板部材および第2板部材でフラット回路体を挟むだけで、第1押圧部および第2押圧部がフラット回路体を押圧することができる。従って、フラット回路体を湾曲状に蛇行させた状態に保つことができる。この結果、フラット形状の広幅ワイヤハーネスのフラット回路体を湾曲状に蛇行させた状態に簡単にセットすることができる。
【0030】
また、フラット回路体を湾曲状に保つことができるので、フラット回路体の弛みをなくすことができ、さらにフラット回路体の長さ寸法の誤差を吸収することができる。

[Field of the Invention]
The present invention relates to a flat circuit body having a surplus length adjustment structure , for example , a flat circuit body having a surplus length adjustment structure capable of giving a slack to a wire harness in order to adjust the position of a standby connector attached to the wire harness. About.
[0002]
[Prior art]
Conventionally, electrical instruments such as instruments and air conditioners have been attached to the instrument panel (hereinafter referred to as “instrument panel”) of automobiles, and these electrical components are electrically connected to the wire harness via a standby connector. Has been.
[0003]
By the way, there is a case where the connection terminal of the electrical component attached to the instrument panel is slightly shifted within an allowable range, and it is necessary to align the connection terminal of the standby connector in accordance with the displacement of the connection terminal of the electrical component. In particular, since the instrument panel and the air conditioner operation unit are directly attached to the instrument panel cowl, the displacement of the connection terminal is relatively large, and the position of the standby connector needs to be adjusted in order to match this displacement.
[0004]
In order to adjust the position of the standby connector, it is necessary to have a structure in which the wire harness connected to the standby connector is slackened in advance and the standby connector is moved using this slack. Hereinafter, this structure is referred to as a “wire harness surplus length adjustment structure”. The extra length adjustment structure of the wire harness is disclosed in, for example, Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 7-69141 “Steering Column Wire Harness Guide Device”. In the next figure, the extra length adjustment structure of the wire harness of the publication will be described.
[0005]
As shown in FIG. 9, the wire harness surplus length adjustment structure is such that three flexible ribs 81 are alternately provided inside the main body 80, and the wire harness 82 is bent into a waveform and set to the flexible rib 81. It is. Thereby, it is possible to set the surplus length adjusting structure in a state where the bending portion 83 of the wire harness 82 is slackened in advance.
[0006]
As shown in FIG. 10, when the wire harness 82 is pulled in the direction of the arrow, the flexible rib 81 is bent, and the bending portion 83 of the wire harness 82 extends linearly. When the pulling force of the wire harness 82 is eliminated, the flexible rib 81 is restored from the bent state as shown in FIG. 9 and the wire harness 82 is loosened by the restoring force of the flexible rib 81. Return to.
[0007]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
However, in the conventional wire harness surplus length adjusting structure, the flexible ribs 81 are alternately provided in the main body 80, and the wire harness 82 needs to be bent into a waveform and loaded into the flexible rib 81. For this reason, when the wire harness 82 is set in the surplus length adjusting structure, it is necessary to load the wire harness 82 in a meandering state.
[0008]
Accordingly, the work of loading the wire harness 82 into the extra length adjustment structure takes time, and the routing workability is poor. In particular, when the wire harness 82 has a wide flat shape, it is very difficult to load the wire harness 82 into the extra length adjusting structure.
[0009]
The present invention has been made in view of the above-described problems, and an object of the present invention is to provide a surplus length adjustment structure for a flat circuit body that can be easily set in a loosened state of a flat wide wire harness. There is.
[0010]
[Means for Solving the Problems]
In order to achieve the above-described object, the present invention provides a first plate member and a second plate member that sandwich the flat circuit body in the thickness direction in order to adjust the extra length of the flat circuit body, and a flat plate from the first plate member. A first pressing portion that extends along the width direction of the circuit body and presses the flat circuit body in the thickness direction, and extends from the second plate member along the width direction of the flat circuit body and presses the flat circuit body in the thickness direction. It has the 2nd press part, and the 1st press part and the 2nd press part are arrange | positioned in the state mutually shifted along the longitudinal direction of the flat circuit body, It is characterized by the above-mentioned.
[0011]
In the surplus length adjustment structure of the flat circuit body configured in this way, the first plate member and the second plate member are arranged so as to sandwich the flat circuit body, and the first and second plate members are arranged with the first and second plates. The pressing part was phase-arranged.
Therefore, the first pressing portion and the second pressing portion can press the flat circuit body simply by sandwiching the flat circuit body between the first plate member and the second plate member. For this reason, the flat circuit body can be kept curved.
[0012]
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
Embodiments according to the present invention will be described below in detail with reference to the drawings. 1 is a perspective view of a surplus length adjusting structure for a flat circuit body according to the first embodiment of the present invention, and FIG. 2 is an exploded view of the surplus length adjusting structure for a flat circuit body according to the first embodiment of the present invention. FIG. 3 is an exploded front view of a flat circuit body surplus length adjusting structure showing a first embodiment according to the present invention, and FIG. 4 is a surplus length of the flat circuit body showing the first embodiment according to the present invention. It is a front view of an adjustment structure.
[0013]
As shown in FIG. 1, the wire harness main line 10 is a bundle of a plurality of wire harnesses 11, and the flat circuit body 12 is a line-up of a plurality of wire harnesses 11 branched from the wire harness main line 10. .
A standby connector 14 is attached to the center of the flat circuit body 12, and the left and right ends of the standby connector 14 have a flat circuit body extra length adjusting structure 20 according to the present invention (left and right flat circuit body extra length adjusting structures 20, 30). Is provided.
[0014]
As shown in FIG. 2, the standby connector 14 sandwiches the flat circuit body 12 between the lower connector 15 and the upper connector 18 and connects the wire harness 11 of the flat circuit body 12 to the bus bar 16. .
[0015]
The lower connector 15 is a member formed in a substantially rectangular shape, and has a plurality of holding portions 17 attached to the upper surface, a pressure contact blade (not shown) provided on the holding portion 17, and a plurality of bus bars 16 connected to the pressure contact blade. is there.
The upper connector 18 is a member formed in a substantially rectangular shape like the lower connector 15, and is formed with lock claws 19 that can be locked to the lower connector 15 at four corners.
[0016]
According to the standby connector 14, by pressing the wire harness 11 against the holding portion 17 of the lower connector 15, the insulator of the wire harness 11 is cut by the press contact blade, and the conductor of the wire harness 11 contacts the press contact blade. The conductor of the wire harness 11 can be connected to the bus bar 16 through the blade. Then, the upper connector 18 can be attached to the lower connector 16 by covering the lower connector 15 with the upper connector 18 and engaging the lock claw 19 with the lower connector 15.
[0017]
As shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, the left flat circuit body extra length adjusting structure 20 includes a first plate member 21 and a second plate member 24 that sandwich the flat circuit body 12 in the thickness direction, and a first plate member 21. A first pressing portion 22 that extends along the width direction of the flat circuit body 12 and presses the flat circuit body 12 in the thickness direction, and a flat circuit that extends from the second plate member 24 along the width direction of the flat circuit body 12. The second pressing portion 25 that presses the body 12 in the thickness direction, and the first pressing portion 22 and the second pressing portion 25 are arranged in a phase along the longitudinal direction of the flat circuit body 12. The extra length of 12 is adjusted.
Since the surplus length adjustment structure 30 of the right flat circuit body is composed of the same members as the surplus length adjustment structure 20 of the left flat circuit body, the same reference numerals are given and description thereof is omitted.
[0018]
The first plate member 21 is a flexible member formed at the left end of the upper connector 18, and the second plate member 24 is a flexible member formed at the left end of the lower connector 15 longer than the first plate member 21. It is.
The first pressing portion 22 is a member attached to the tip of the first plate member 21, and the second pressing portion 25 is a member attached to the tip of the second plate member 24.
[0019]
Since the second plate member 24 is formed longer than the first plate member 21, the second pressing portion 25 is disposed at a position farther from the standby connector 14 than the first pressing portion 22. For this reason, the 2nd press part 25 and the 1st press part 22 are arrange | positioned in the state mutually shifted | deviated.
Thus, since the left and right flat circuit body extra length adjustment structures 20 and 30 are integrally provided at the left and right ends of the standby connector 14, the number of parts can be reduced.
[0020]
As shown in FIG. 4, according to the surplus length adjustment structure 20 of the left flat circuit body, the first pressing portion 22 and the second plate member of the first plate member 21 can be obtained by attaching the lower connector 15 to the upper connector 18. Since the flat circuit body 12 is pressed in the thickness direction by the 24 second pressing portions 25, the flat circuit body 12 on the left side of the standby connector 14 is kept in a wave shape.
The flat circuit body 12 on the right side of the standby connector 14 has a surplus length adjustment structure 30 for the right flat circuit body, and is maintained in a wave shape in the same manner as the surplus length adjustment structure 20 for the left flat circuit body.
[0021]
Therefore, the first pressing part 22 and the second pressing part 25 can press the flat circuit body 12 only by sandwiching the flat circuit body 12 between the first plate member 21 and the second plate member 24. For this reason, the flat circuit body 12 can be maintained in a curved state. As a result, the flat circuit body 12 of the flat wide wire harness can be easily set in a meandering state.
[0022]
Next, the operation of the flat circuit body extra length adjusting structure will be described with reference to FIGS.
As shown in FIG. 5, when the standby connector 14 is moved in the direction of the arrow (left side), the flat circuit body 12 on the right side of the standby connector 14 is pulled to the left side. Accordingly, the flat circuit body 12 on the right side of the standby connector 14 changes from a curved state to a straight line, and the first plate member 21 on the right side and the second plate member 24 on the right side bend in a curved shape. Accordingly, the first pressing portion 22 of the first plate member 21 and the second pressing portion 25 of the second plate member 24 spread outward. Accordingly, the standby connector 14 can be set at the P1 position moved to the left side.
[0023]
As shown in FIG. 6, when the standby connector 14 is moved from the P1 position to the P2 position in the arrow direction (right side), the left flat circuit body 12 of the standby connector 14 is pulled to the right side. Accordingly, the flat circuit body 12 on the left side of the standby connector 14 changes from a curved state to a straight line, and the first plate member 21 on the left side and the second plate member 24 on the left side bend in a curved shape. Accordingly, the first pressing portion 22 of the first plate member 21 and the second pressing portion 25 of the second plate member 24 spread outward.
[0024]
On the other hand, the right flat circuit body 12 is slackened.

【The invention's effect】
As described above, according to the present invention, in order to adjust the extra length of the flat circuit body, the first plate member and the second plate member sandwiching the flat circuit body in the thickness direction and the first plate member are flat. A first pressing portion that extends along the width direction of the circuit body and presses the flat circuit body in the thickness direction, and extends from the second plate member along the width direction of the flat circuit body and presses the flat circuit body in the thickness direction. It has a 2nd press part, and the 1st press part and the 2nd press part are arrange | positioned in the state mutually shifted along the longitudinal direction of the flat circuit body, It is characterized by the above-mentioned.
[0029]
In the surplus length adjustment structure of the flat circuit body configured as described above, the first plate member and the second plate member are arranged so as to sandwich the flat circuit body, and the first and second pressing members are pressed against the first and second plate members. The parts were arranged in a state of being displaced from each other .
According to this structure, the 1st press part and the 2nd press part can press a flat circuit body only by pinching | interposing a flat circuit body with a 1st board member and a 2nd board member. Therefore, it is possible to keep the flat circuit body meandering in a curved shape. As a result, the flat circuit body of the flat wide wire harness can be easily set in a meandering state.
