Description

The present invention relates to a clamp.

Conventionally, a fuse puller for removing fuses attached to a fuse box is known (see Patent Documents 1 and 2, for example).
Patent Document 1 describes a fuse box that includes a box-shaped body that houses a fuse and has an opening, and a lid that closes the opening of the box-shaped body so that the fuse is held in the box-shaped body. A fuse box device is disclosed in which a holding portion is provided on a lid. In this fuse box device, the clamping portion is formed by the movable piece having the hook portion, which is the fuse hooking portion, and the fixed piece. A locking hole is formed. By manipulating the movable piece so as to bring the hook portions of the holding portion closer together, the locking hole is disengaged from the locking claw of the box-shaped main body, and the lid can be removed from the box-shaped main body.

Further, Patent Document 2 discloses a pair of arms made of elongated plates, an elastic connecting beam connecting the middle of the arms, and an inner surface facing one end of each arm in the length direction. One of the claws projects from one side of the arm portion in the width direction, while the other claw portion projects from the other side of the arm portion in the width direction. A fuse puller is disclosed in which two protruding claws are arranged at diagonal positions.

JP-A-2003-297219 JP-A-8-138527

However, in the configuration disclosed in Patent Document 2, in which one claw is provided on each arm portion and arranged at diagonal positions, the fuse is held stably when the pair of arm portions sandwich the fuse. There is room for improvement. On the other hand, if the pawls are arranged over a wide range in order to improve the holding stability, the fuse-locking pawls may abut against each other, making it impossible to sufficiently close the clamping portion of the fuse puller. In this case, in a configuration in which the fuse puller is integrated with the locking piece of the lid as in the configuration disclosed in Patent Document 1, the locking piece can be separated from the mating member due to insufficient opening of the locking piece. There is a possibility that it will not be able to be locked to the opening, so the locking piece must be enlarged to overcome the lack of opening.

Therefore, the present invention provides a clamping body capable of holding a clamped member with claws, in which a structure for detachably locking the clamping body itself to another member is compactly integrated, and the holding stability of the clamped member is improved. It is intended to

A clamping body of the present invention comprises a clamping plate (30) having a first half (31) including one end in a first direction and a second half (32) including the other end in the first direction; a facing portion (40) spaced apart in the second direction so as to face the main surface of the first half (31) of the clamping plate (30); a connecting portion (50) connected to a portion between the first half portion (31) and the second half portion (32) and connecting the holding plate (30) and the facing portion (40); A pair of first claws (60) which are connected to one of the half portion (31) and the facing portion (40) and protrude to the other side and are arranged with a gap in the third direction; A pair of second claws (70) projecting to the side and spaced apart in the third direction, and a pair of second claws (70) provided on the second half (32) of the clamping plate (30) and the other member (3 ), the pair of first claws (60) and the pair of second claws (70) facing each other when viewed in the first direction. Positioned so that the claws do not overlap.

According to the present invention, the member sandwiched by the first half portion and the opposing portion of the sandwiching plate can be locked at positions spaced apart in the third direction by the pair of first claws and the pair of second claws. Therefore, the clamping body can more stably hold the clamped member compared to a configuration in which claws are arranged only at diagonal positions.
Moreover, when the first half of the clamping plate is brought close to the opposing portion, the clamping plate is displaced so as to rotate about the vicinity of the connecting portion with the connecting portion while resisting the restoring force of the elastic deformation. The half is displaced opposite the first half. As a result, the locked portion locked to the other member can be released from the other member.
Furthermore, when the first half of the clamping plate is brought close to the opposing portion, the first claw and the second claw do not abut against each other. The halves can be brought closer together. Therefore, it is possible to reliably separate the second half of the clamping plate from the other member.
As described above, in a clamping body capable of holding a clamped member with claws, a structure for detachably locking the clamping body itself to another member is compactly integrated, and the holding stability of the clamped member is improved. can be done.

In the holding body described above, the outer ends (60o) of the pair of first claws (60) in the third direction when viewed in the first direction are the third direction ends of the pair of second claws (70). may be at the same or inner position in the third direction with respect to the inner end (70i) of the .

According to the present invention, when the first half portion of the clamping plate is brought close to the opposing portion, the pair of first claws enters between the pair of second claws, so that the first claws and the second claws abut each other. You get a configuration that doesn't hit. Therefore, the effect mentioned above can be produced.

In the clamping body described above, the locked portion (80) extends from the second half portion (32) to the first of the pair of first claws (60) and the pair of second claws (70). The outer end (80o) of the engaged portion (80) in the third direction projects in the same direction as the projecting direction of the pawl connected to the half portion (31). It may be at the same or inner position in said third direction with respect to the inner end (60i).

According to the present invention, the first claw and the engaged portion projecting in the same direction from the clamping plate do not overlap with each other when viewed from the first direction. The first claw and the engaged portion can be formed by splitting. Therefore, it is possible to suppress an increase in manufacturing cost due to complication of the mold.

In the clamping body, the pair of first claws (60) and the pair of second claws (70) are positioned outside the clamping plate (30) and the connecting portion (50) in the third direction. may be in

According to the present invention, since the first claw and the second claw do not overlap the clamping plate and the connecting portion when viewed from the first direction, the first claw and the second claw can be separated by mold splitting in the first direction without using a slide core. can be molded. Therefore, it is possible to suppress an increase in manufacturing cost due to complication of the mold.

In the clamping body described above, the second half portion (32) may be positioned inside in the third direction from the outer end (50o) of the connecting portion (50) in the third direction.

According to the present invention, the second half of the clamping plate and the connecting portion can be integrally formed without using a mold having a complicated shape.

In the clamping body described above, it is provided integrally with the lid (5) attached to the box body (3) that houses the fuse. (3) is engaged with the box body (3), and the clamping plate (30) and the facing portion (40) are formed by the pair of first claws (60) and the pair of second claws (60). A claw (70) may be engaged with the fuse to hold it.

According to the present invention, the holding plate can be used as a locking piece for fixing the lid to the box body. Furthermore, the clamping plate and the opposing portion can clamp the fuse by locking the first claw and the second claw to the fuse. As a result, the lid provided with the fuse puller can be obtained, and the number of parts can be reduced compared to the case where the fuse puller is provided separately from the lid.

In the holding body described above, the lid (5) is formed in a box shape that opens toward the box body (3), and extends from the top wall (20) and the outer edge of the top wall (20). It has a side wall (21) forming an opening, and the facing part (40) is integrally formed with the side wall (21) and formed to protrude from the ceiling wall (20) along the first direction. and may be connected to the top wall (20) via a rib (90) having a thickness in the third direction.

According to the present invention, it is possible to make it difficult for the portion of the opposing portion that protrudes upward from the ceiling wall to bend due to the rib. As a result, it is possible to suppress the thickening of the protruding portion of the opposing portion and facilitate the insertion of the protruding portion of the opposing portion into the gap between the plurality of fuses that are mounted side by side. Therefore, the clamping body can be formed as a fuse puller that can easily clamp the fuse.

The first claw 60 and the engaged portion 80 can be formed by mold splitting. That is, as shown in FIG. 7, in a mold that is vertically split, the first claw 60 and the engaged portion 80 can be formed by the convex portion 200 extending downward. Therefore, it is possible to suppress an increase in manufacturing cost due to complication of the mold.

The pair of first claws 60 and the pair of second claws 70 are located outside the clamping plate 30 and the connecting portion 50 in the front-rear direction. According to this configuration, since the first claw 60 and the second claw 70 do not overlap the clamping plate 30 and the connecting portion 50 when viewed from above and below, the first claw 60 and the second claw 70 can be separated by vertically dividing the mold without using a slide core. The second pawl 70 can be molded. Therefore, it is possible to suppress an increase in manufacturing cost due to complication of the mold.

The lower half portion 32 of the clamping plate 30 is positioned inside in the front-rear direction from the outer end 50 o of the connecting portion 50 in the front-rear direction. According to this configuration, the lower half portion 32 of the clamping plate 30 and the connecting portion 50 can be integrally molded without using a mold having a complicated shape.

The holding body 7 is provided integrally with the lid body 5 . The locked portion 80 is locked to the box body 3 in a state where the lid 5 is attached to the box body 3 . Therefore, the clamping plate 30 can be used as a locking piece for fixing the lid 5 to the box body 3 . Further, the clamping plate 30 and the opposing portion 40 can clamp the fuse 100 by locking the first claw 60 and the second claw 70 to the fuse 100 . Therefore, the lid body 5 provided with the fuse puller can be obtained, and the number of parts can be reduced as compared with the case where the fuse puller is provided separately from the lid body.

The opposing portion 40 of the clamping body 7 is formed integrally with the side wall 21 of the lid 5 and formed so as to protrude upward from the top wall 20 of the lid 5, and is connected via a connecting rib 90 having a thickness in the front-rear direction. connected to the ceiling wall 20. According to this configuration, the upper portion 41 of the facing portion 40 that protrudes upward from the ceiling wall 20 can be made difficult to bend by the connecting rib 90 . As a result, it is possible to suppress the thickness of the upper portion 41 of the facing portion 40 from increasing and to facilitate the insertion of the upper portion 41 of the facing portion 40 into the gap between the plurality of fuses 100 mounted side by side. Therefore, the clamping body 7 can be formed as a fuse puller that can easily clamp the fuse 100 .
