Description

本発明は、電線の端部に備えたモジュラコネクタ同士を、中継コネクタを介して電気的に接続し、その後モジュラコネクタおよび中継コネクタに粘着テープを巻回するモジュラコネクタの保護カバーに関する。   The present invention relates to a protective cover for a modular connector in which modular connectors provided at end portions of electric wires are electrically connected to each other via a relay connector, and then adhesive tape is wound around the modular connector and the relay connector.

屋内で使用するパソコンなどの端末装置を、屋外に設けた屋外ユニットにLAN(構内情報通信網)ケーブルで接続する際に、端末装置のLANケーブルと、屋外ユニットのLANケーブルとを接続するために中継コネクタが用いられている。LANケーブル同士をコネクタで接続する例を図11で示す。
図11(A),(B)に示すように、中継コネクタ100は、略箱状の本体101における互いに離れる方向を向く側面に、コネクタ開口102がそれぞれ設けられ、各コネクタ開口102に、LANケーブル103の端部に備えたモジュラコネクタ104のプラグ本体105が対向させて挿入される。
LANケーブル103は、端部のモジュラコネクタ104の爪106を押下することにより中継コネクタ100から取り外せる。
When connecting a terminal device such as a personal computer used indoors to an outdoor unit installed outdoors using a LAN (local information communication network) cable, to connect the LAN cable of the terminal device and the LAN cable of the outdoor unit A relay connector is used. An example of connecting LAN cables with a connector is shown in FIG.
As shown in FIGS. 11A and 11B, the relay connector 100 is provided with connector openings 102 on the side surfaces of the substantially box-shaped main body 101 facing away from each other, and each connector opening 102 has a LAN cable. The plug body 105 of the modular connector 104 provided at the end of 103 is inserted to face each other.
The LAN cable 103 can be detached from the relay connector 100 by pressing the claw 106 of the modular connector 104 at the end.

中継コネクタ100を屋外や多湿環境下で用いる場合、図11(D)に示すように、一方のLANケーブル103の端部から中継コネクタ100を経て他方のLANケーブル103の端部まで粘着テープ107を螺旋状に1層あるいは複数層巻回している。
粘着テープ107を複数層巻回する場合には、最下層が防水性を得るための層、上層が耐候性を得るための層となる。
When the relay connector 100 is used outdoors or in a humid environment, as shown in FIG. 11D, an adhesive tape 107 is attached from the end of one LAN cable 103 to the end of the other LAN cable 103 through the relay connector 100. One or more layers are wound spirally.
When the adhesive tape 107 is wound in a plurality of layers, the lowermost layer is a layer for obtaining waterproof properties, and the upper layer is a layer for obtaining weather resistance.

ここで、例えば、粘着テープ107の巻回の際に、巻回した粘着テープ107が爪106を押下して中継コネクタ100からLANケーブル103が脱落する虞がある。このため、LANケーブル103の脱落を避けるために、粘着テープ107を巻回する前に、図11(C)に示すように、爪106をあらかじめ切断しておく必要ある。
このように、粘着テープ107を巻回する前に爪106をあらかじめ切断するという事前作業が必要になり、作業性が悪い。
Here, for example, when the adhesive tape 107 is wound, the wound adhesive tape 107 may depress the claw 106 and the LAN cable 103 may drop from the relay connector 100. Therefore, in order to avoid the LAN cable 103 from falling off, it is necessary to cut the nail 106 in advance as shown in FIG. 11C before winding the adhesive tape 107.
Thus, prior work of cutting the nail 106 in advance before winding the adhesive tape 107 is necessary, and workability is poor.

また、LANケーブル103と中継コネクタ100とは断面形状、断面寸法が異なるため大きな段差が生じる。この段差部分に粘着テープ107を巻回するとき、粘着テープ107に皺等が生じないように巻回する必要があり、粘着テープ107の巻回作業が難しい。
万が一、粘着テープ107に皺等が発生すると、所望の防水性・耐候性を得ることが難しい場合がある。
Moreover, since the LAN cable 103 and the relay connector 100 have different cross-sectional shapes and cross-sectional dimensions, a large step is generated. When the pressure-sensitive adhesive tape 107 is wound around the stepped portion, it is necessary to wind the pressure-sensitive adhesive tape 107 so as not to cause wrinkles, and it is difficult to wind the pressure-sensitive adhesive tape 107.
If wrinkles or the like occur in the adhesive tape 107, it may be difficult to obtain desired waterproofness and weather resistance.

ところで、中継コネクタ100とモジュラコネクタ104との接続部を防水する防水具として、モジュラコネクタ防水装置が提案されている(例えば、特許文献1)。
特開8−79099号公報
By the way, a modular connector waterproofing device has been proposed as a waterproofing tool for waterproofing a connection portion between the relay connector 100 and the modular connector 104 (for example, Patent Document 1).
JP-A-8-79099

図12に示すように、特許文献のモジュラコネクタ防水装置110は、モジュラコネクタ111を覆うゴムまたは合成樹脂製のカバー112の内側に、モジュラコネクタ111と係合する防水用凸部113を設けるとともに、電線115と係合する防水用凸部116を設け、さらにカバー112の外壁に、筐体の内壁117に係合する防水用凸部118を設け、それぞれの防水用凸部113,116,118のシール作用によりモジュラコネクタ111の周囲から筐体内部への水の侵入を防止するものである。
加えて、モジュラコネクタ防水装置110は、モジュラコネクタ111の爪120を延長部121で覆っている。
As shown in FIG. 12, the modular connector waterproof device 110 of the patent document is provided with a waterproof convex portion 113 that engages with the modular connector 111 inside a rubber or synthetic resin cover 112 that covers the modular connector 111, A waterproof convex portion 116 that engages with the electric wire 115 is provided, and further, a waterproof convex portion 118 that engages with the inner wall 117 of the housing is provided on the outer wall of the cover 112, and each of the waterproof convex portions 113, 116, 118 is provided. The sealing action prevents water from entering the casing from the periphery of the modular connector 111.
In addition, the modular connector waterproof device 110 covers the claw 120 of the modular connector 111 with an extension 121.

しかしながら、特許文献の延長部121は爪120を覆い、モジュラプラグのロックを容易に解除するものであり、爪120が押下されないように保護するものではない。   However, the extension 121 of the patent document covers the claw 120 and easily releases the lock of the modular plug, and does not protect the claw 120 from being pressed.

また、特許文献のモジュラコネクタ防水装置110では、筐体側をカバー112の形状に合わせる必要があり、図11に示す中継コネクタ100のような一般的なコネクタに接続しても防水することはできない。   Moreover, in the modular connector waterproofing device 110 of patent document, it is necessary to match the housing side with the shape of the cover 112, and it cannot be waterproofed even if connected to a general connector such as the relay connector 100 shown in FIG.

本発明は上記事情に鑑みてなされたもので、モジュラコネクタ付きの電線と中継コネクタとにわたるテープの巻回作業性が容易になるとともに、所望の防水性・耐候性が確実に得られるモジュラコネクタの保護カバーを提供することを目的とする。   The present invention has been made in view of the above circumstances, and facilitates winding workability of a tape spanning between an electric wire with a modular connector and a relay connector, and a modular connector that can reliably obtain desired waterproofness and weather resistance. The purpose is to provide a protective cover.

本発明のモジュラコネクタの保護カバーは、電線の端部に設けられた略箱状のプラグ本体と、前記プラグ本体から前記電線に向かうとともに前記電線から離れる方向に沿って斜めに突出する爪とを有するモジュラコネクタを機器に設けられたコネクタ開口に挿入してから前記電線の端部、前記モジュラコネクタおよび前記機器における前記コネクタ開口側の端部にわたって粘着テープを巻回するために、前記爪を覆う被覆部を備え、前記被覆部が前記電線の端部から前記機器における前記コネクタ開口側の端部まで滑らかに連続する外形状を有していることを特徴とする。   The protective cover of the modular connector of the present invention comprises a substantially box-shaped plug body provided at an end of an electric wire, and a claw projecting obliquely along the direction from the plug body toward the electric wire and away from the electric wire. The modular connector is inserted into a connector opening provided in the device, and then covers the claw to wind an adhesive tape over the end of the electric wire, the modular connector, and the end of the device on the connector opening side. A covering portion is provided, and the covering portion has an outer shape that smoothly continues from an end portion of the electric wire to an end portion on the connector opening side of the device.

爪を覆う被覆部を備え、この被覆部は、電線の端部からコネクタ開口側の端部まで滑らかに連続する外形状を有している。
よって、滑らかに連続する被覆部に粘着テープを巻き付けることで、粘着テープに皺等が生じないように簡単に巻回できる。これにより、電線の端部とコネクタ開口側の端部とにわたる粘着テープの巻回作業性が容易になる。
加えて、粘着テープに皺等が生じないように簡単に巻回することで、所望の防水性・耐候性が確実に得られる。
A covering portion that covers the claws is provided, and the covering portion has an outer shape that smoothly continues from the end of the electric wire to the end on the connector opening side.
Therefore, by winding the adhesive tape around the smoothly continuous covering portion, the adhesive tape can be easily wound so as not to cause wrinkles. Thereby, winding workability | operativity of the adhesive tape over the edge part of an electric wire and the edge part by the side of a connector opening becomes easy.
In addition, desired waterproofness and weather resistance can be reliably obtained by simply winding the adhesive tape so as not to cause wrinkles.

また、本発明のモジュラコネクタの保護カバーは、前記被覆部の内側に前記プラグ本体における少なくとも前記爪が設けられた側面に当接可能な当接部が設けられていることを特徴とする。   Moreover, the protective cover of the modular connector according to the present invention is characterized in that an abutting portion capable of abutting on at least a side surface of the plug main body provided with the claw is provided inside the covering portion.

被覆部が加圧された際に、プラグ本体の側面に当接部が当接し、被覆部が必要以上にプラグ本体側に変形することを防ぐ。よって、被覆部の変形で爪が押し下げられることを防いで、爪を保護できる。   When the covering portion is pressurized, the abutting portion comes into contact with the side surface of the plug body, preventing the covering portion from being deformed more than necessary to the plug body side. Therefore, the nail can be prevented from being pushed down by the deformation of the covering portion, and the nail can be protected.

また、本発明のモジュラコネクタの保護カバーは、前記被覆部が筒状であることを特徴とする。   The protective cover of the modular connector according to the present invention is characterized in that the covering portion is cylindrical.

被覆部を筒状に形成することで、被覆部の全周にわたって粘着テープが被覆可能になり、粘着テープを巻回する作業性が、さらに向上する。   By forming the covering portion in a cylindrical shape, the adhesive tape can be covered over the entire circumference of the covering portion, and the workability of winding the adhesive tape is further improved.

また、本発明のモジュラコネクタの保護カバーは、前記被覆部に内外を連通するスリットが設けられていることを特徴とする。   Further, the protective cover of the modular connector of the present invention is characterized in that a slit for communicating the inside and the outside is provided in the covering portion.

被覆部に内外を連通するスリットを設けることで、スリットを開いて保護カバーを取り付けることができ、保護カバーの取付け作業が容易になる。   By providing the cover with a slit that communicates the inside and the outside, the protective cover can be attached by opening the slit, and the work of attaching the protective cover is facilitated.

本発明によれば、被覆部に粘着テープを巻き付けることで、粘着テープに皺等が生じないように簡単に巻回でき、粘着テープの巻回作業性が容易になるとともに、所望の防水性・耐候性が確実に得られるという効果を有する。   According to the present invention, by winding the adhesive tape around the covering portion, the adhesive tape can be easily wound so as not to cause wrinkles, etc. It has the effect that the weather resistance is reliably obtained.

図1〜図2に示すように、第1実施形態のモジュラコネクタの保護カバー10は、第1電線(電線)11の端部12に設けられた略箱状の第1プラグ本体(プラグ本体)13と、第1プラグ本体13から第1電線11に向かうとともに第1電線11から離れる方向に沿って斜めに突出する第1爪(爪)14とを有する第1モジュラコネクタ(モジュラコネクタ)15を、機器(図示せず)に設けられた中継コネクタ(コネクタ)20の開口21に挿入してから第1電線11の端部12、第1モジュラコネクタ15および機器におけるコネクタ開口21側の端部22にわたって粘着テープ25(図3参照)を巻回するために、第1爪14を覆う被覆部30を備え、被覆部30が、第1電線11の端部12から機器におけるコネクタ開口21側の端部22まで滑らかに連続する外形状を有している。   As shown in FIGS. 1-2, the protective cover 10 of the modular connector of 1st Embodiment is the substantially plug-shaped 1st plug main body (plug main body) provided in the edge part 12 of the 1st electric wire (electric wire) 11.

The first claw 14A is an elastically deformable member that protrudes obliquely along the direction away from the electric wire 11 and applies a pressing force to the distal end portion 14B.

次に、機器に設けられた中継コネクタ20について説明する。
図示しない機器に第2電線(電線)41が接続され、第2電線41の端部42に第2プラグ本体(プラグ本体)43が接続され、第2プラグ本体43に中継コネクタ20の開口23に挿入して接続される。
第2電線41の端部42、第2モジュラコネクタ45およびコネクタ開口23側の端部24にわたって粘着テープ25(図3参照)を巻回するために、保護カバー10を備える。
Next, the relay connector 20 provided in the device will be described.
A second electric wire (electric wire) 41 is connected to a device (not shown), a second plug main body (plug main body) 43 is connected to the end 42 of the second electric wire 41, and the second plug main body 43 is connected to the opening 23 of the relay connector 20. Insert and connect.

中継コネクタ20は、被覆部30に嵌め込み可能に外形が矩形状に形成され、一方の端部22に、第1プラグ本体13の先端部13Aが挿入可能な開口21を備え、他方の端部24に、第2プラグ本体14の先端部43Aが挿入可能な開口23を備える。   The relay connector 20 is formed in a rectangular shape so that the relay connector 20 can be fitted into the covering portion 30. The relay connector 20 has an opening 21 into which one end portion 22 of the first plug body 13 can be inserted in one end portion 22, and the other end portion 24. In addition, an opening 23 into which the distal end portion 43A of the second plug body 14 can be inserted is provided.

本実施形態では、この中継コネクタ20を、機器に設けられたコネクタとして説明する。なお、機器に設けられた中継コネクタ20は、これに限るものではなく、その他の例として、機器に直接接続されたコネクタを含むことはいうまでもない。
第2電線42は第1電線11と同一部材であり、第2モジュラコネクタ45は第1モジュラコネクタ15と同一部材である。
In the present embodiment, the relay connector 20 will be described as a connector provided in a device. In addition, the relay connector 20 provided in the device is not limited to this, and it is needless to say that the connector directly connected to the device is included as another example.
The second electric wire 42 is the same member as the first electric wire 11, and the second modular connector 45 is the same member as the first modular connector 15.

保護カバー10の被覆部30は、例えば、弾性変形可能なゴム材などで形成した部材であって、一端31が電線11に嵌め込み可能に比較的小径の筒状に形成され、他端32がコネクタ22の端部22に嵌め込み可能に比較的大きな矩形筒状に形成されている。
被覆部30を全体に略筒状に形成することで、被覆部30の全周にわたって粘着テープ25が被覆可能になり、粘着テープ25の巻回作業性が向上する。
The covering portion 30 of the protective cover 10 is a member formed of, for example, an elastically deformable rubber material, and one end 31 is formed in a relatively small diameter cylindrical shape so as to be fitted into the electric wire 11, and the other end 32 is a connector. It is formed in a relatively large rectangular tube shape so that it can be fitted into the end 22 of 22.
By forming the covering portion 30 in a substantially cylindrical shape as a whole, the adhesive tape 25 can be covered over the entire circumference of the covering portion 30, and the winding workability of the adhesive tape 25 is improved.

さらに、保護カバー10の被覆部30は、一端31が小径の筒状に形成され、他端32が比較的大きな矩形筒状に形成されることで、第1電線11の端部12から中継コネクタ20の開口21側の端部22まで、すなわち、一端31から他端32まで滑らかに連続する外形部33を有している。   Further, the covering portion 30 of the protective cover 10 has one end 31 formed in a small-diameter cylindrical shape and the other end 32 formed in a relatively large rectangular cylindrical shape, so that the relay connector is connected from the end 12 of the first electric wire 11. 20 has an outer shape part 33 smoothly extending from the one end 31 to the other end 32 up to the end part 22 on the opening 21 side.

よって、滑らかに連続する被覆部30(詳しくは、外形部33)に粘着テープ25を巻き付けることで、粘着テープ25に皺等が生じないように簡単に巻回できる。これにより、第1電線11の端部12と、中継コネクタ20の開口21側の端部22とにわたる粘着テープ25の巻回作業性が容易になる。
加えて、粘着テープ25に皺等が生じないように簡単に巻回することで、所望の防水性・耐候性が確実に得られる。
Therefore, by winding the adhesive tape 25 around the smoothly continuous coating portion 30 (specifically, the outer shape portion 33), the adhesive tape 25 can be easily wound so as not to cause wrinkles. Thereby, winding workability | operativity of the adhesive tape 25 over the edge part 12 of the 1st electric wire 11 and the edge part 22 by the side of the opening 21 of the relay connector 20 becomes easy.
In addition, desired waterproofness and weather resistance can be reliably obtained by simply winding the adhesive tape 25 so as not to cause wrinkles.

外形部33には、切込み34が形成されている。切込み34は、第1爪14が設けられた側面33Aに形成され、切込み34には第1爪14が配置される(図4参照)。   A cut 34 is formed in the outer shape portion 33. The cut 34 is formed in the side surface 33A where the first claw 14 is provided, and the first claw 14 is disposed in the cut 34 (see FIG. 4).

また、被覆部30は、内側に第1プラグ本体13における少なくとも第1爪14が設けられた側面13Bに当接可能な当接部36(図4参照)が設けられている。
これにより、図4(B)に示すように、被覆部30が矢印のように加圧された際に、第1プラグ本体13の側面13Bに当接部36が当接し、被覆部30が必要以上に第1プラグ本体13側に変形することを防ぐ。
よって、被覆部30の変形で第1爪14が押し下げられることを防いで、第1爪14を保護できる。
Further, the covering portion 30 is provided with an abutting portion 36 (see FIG. 4) that can abut on the side surface 13B of the first plug body 13 on which at least the first claw 14 is provided.
As a result, as shown in FIG. 4B, when the covering portion 30 is pressurized as shown by the arrow, the contact portion 36 comes into contact with the side surface 13B of the first plug body 13, and the covering portion 30 is necessary. This prevents the first plug body 13 from being deformed.
Therefore, it is possible to protect the first claw 14 by preventing the first claw 14 from being pushed down due to the deformation of the covering portion 30.

次に、保護カバー10を用いたモジュラコネクタ15,45の接続手順を図5に基づいて説明する。
図5(A)に示すように、一方の被覆部30の切込み34を開いて、第1モジュラコネクタ15および電線11の端部12を被覆部30内に貫通させる。
同様に、他方の被覆部30の切込み34を開いて、第2モジュラコネクタ45および電線41の端部42を被覆部30内に貫通させる。

第2モジュラコネクタ45を中継コネクタ20の他方の開口23(図1参照)嵌め込で、その状態に第2爪44でロックする。
The first modular connector 15 is fitted into one opening 21 of the relay connector 20 and locked in that state by the first claw 14.
The second modular connector 45 is fitted into the other opening 23 (see FIG. 1) of the relay connector 20, and is locked in that state by the second claw 44.

図5(B)に示すように、中継コネクタ20の一方の端部22側に、一方の被覆部30を嵌め込み、中継コネクタ20の他方の端部24側に、他方の被覆部30を嵌め込む。一方の被覆部30と他方の被覆部30とを突き合わせる。   As shown in FIG. 5B, one covering portion 30 is fitted on one end 22 side of the relay connector 20, and the other covering portion 30 is fitted on the other end 24 side of the relay connector 20. . One covering portion 30 and the other covering portion 30 are brought into contact with each other.

図5(C)に示すように、一方の被覆部30と他方の被覆部30との突き合わせ部を、粘着テープ25を巻回して仮止めする。
次に、他方の被覆部30と電線41の端部42に粘着テープ25を巻回して仮止めするとともに、一方の被覆部30と電線11の端部12に粘着テープ25を巻回して仮止めする。
As shown in FIG. 5C, the butted portion between the one covering portion 30 and the other covering portion 30 is temporarily fixed by winding an adhesive tape 25.
Next, the adhesive tape 25 is wound around the other covering portion 30 and the end portion 42 of the electric wire 41 to be temporarily fixed, and the adhesive tape 25 is wound around the one covering portion 30 and the end portion 12 of the electric wire 11 to be temporarily fixed. To do.

図5(D)に示すように、電線41の端部42側から、他方の被覆部30の外形部33に向けて粘着テープ25を螺旋状に巻回を開始する。
