このようなフード付きコネクタを、プリント配線板又はその他の実装先部材に表面実装しようとした場合、ハンダ付けのための熱がフードの有する熱容量だけ奪われるので、確実な表面実装を行うことが難しい。しかも、ハンダ付けのための熱によりフードが熱変形するおそれもある。   When such a connector with a hood is to be surface-mounted on a printed wiring board or other mounting destination member, heat for soldering is taken away only by the heat capacity of the hood, so it is difficult to perform reliable surface mounting. . In addition, the hood may be thermally deformed by heat for soldering.

そこで、フード付きコネクタを、コアハウジングにコンタクトを設けてなるコア組立体と、フードを有して上記コア組立体に組み付けられるフードハウジングとに分割しておき、コア組立体を実装先部材に表面実装してからこれにフードハウジングを組み付けることにより、ハンダ付けの対象となる部材の熱容量を減らし、確実な表面実装とフードの熱変形防止とを実現することが考えられる。しかし、複数のコア組立体を実装先部材に並べて表面実装し、これら複数のコア組立体に、複数のフードを有するフードハウジングを組み付けるようにした場合、実装先部材へのコア組立体の配置精度のばらつき、ハンダ付けの熱負荷による実装先部材の変形などから、コア組立体同士の相対位置が正規の相対位置からずれることがある。そうした場合、複数のコア組立体にフードハウジングを組み付けようとしても、複数のコア組立体に対するフードハウジングの組み付け位置が確定せず、組み付け作業性が悪いという問題が生じる。   Therefore, the connector with the hood is divided into a core assembly in which a contact is provided on the core housing and a hood housing having a hood and assembled to the core assembly. By mounting the hood housing after mounting, it is conceivable to reduce the heat capacity of the member to be soldered, and to realize reliable surface mounting and prevention of thermal deformation of the hood. However, when a plurality of core assemblies are mounted on a surface of a mounting member and surface-mounted, and a hood housing having a plurality of hoods is assembled to the plurality of core assemblies, the arrangement accuracy of the core assembly on the mounting member The relative position of the core assemblies may deviate from the normal relative position due to variations in the above, deformation of the mounting member due to the thermal load of soldering, and the like. In such a case, even if an attempt is made to assemble the hood housing to the plurality of core assemblies, the assembly position of the hood housing with respect to the plurality of core assemblies is not fixed, and there is a problem that the assembly workability is poor.

本発明は、このような点に着目してなされたものであり、その目的とするところは、先に提案したように複数のコア組立体とフードハウジングとに分割することで確実な表面実装とフードの熱変形防止とを実現でき、また複数のコア組立体に対するフードハウジングの組み付け位置を容易に確定し、良好な組み付け作業性が得られる弾性体掛け分割コネクタを提供することにある。   The present invention has been made paying attention to such points, and the object of the present invention is to ensure reliable surface mounting by dividing into a plurality of core assemblies and hood housings as previously proposed. An object of the present invention is to provide an elastic body-split and split connector that can realize prevention of thermal deformation of the hood, easily determine the assembly position of the hood housing with respect to a plurality of core assemblies, and obtain good assembly workability.

本発明の弾性体掛け分割コネクタは、互いに直交する奥行き方向、高さ方向及び幅方向をとったときに、絶縁性のコアハウジングと、相手側コンタクトと接続することになる接続部が上記コアハウジングの奥行き方向手前側に配置され、実装先部材へ表面実装されることになるリードが上記コアハウジングの高さ方向の一方側である実装側の端部付近に配置されるようにコアハウジングに設けられた導電性のコンタクトとを有し、実装先部材へ幅方向に並んで表面実装されることになる複数のコア組立体と、正規の相対位置に配置された上記複数のコア組立体のそれぞれに対応して設けられ且つ内側に各コア組立体のコンタクト及びそれに対応する相手側コンタクトを受け入れる受入空間が形成された複数の個別枠体を一体的に設けてなる統合枠体と、この統合枠体における各個別枠体から奥行き方向の手前へそれぞれ延びて相手側コネクタにそれぞれ嵌合されることになる筒形のフードとを有する絶縁性のフードハウジングとを備え、上記各コアハウジングにおける奥行き方向にみて上記コンタクト接続部を取り囲む周囲部と、このコアハウジングに対応する個別枠体における奥行き方向にみて上記受入空間を取り囲む周囲部のうち一方の周囲部は奥行き方向に向いた平面に形成され、他方の周囲部の複数箇所には面積がこの周囲部よりも十分に小さい面が奥行き方向に盛り上がって当て面が形成されており、上記複数のコア組立体と上記フードハウジングとが正規の相対位置に配置されると、これらの周囲部がほぼ対向して一方の周囲部と他方の周囲部の全ての当て面とが接触するように構成されており、上記各コアハウジング及びこれに対応する個別枠体のうち一方の部材の幅方向両側における上記周囲部の高さ方向の中途部には、この一方の部材から幅方向外側に突出し且つ奥行き方向奥側には奥へ向かうにつれて幅方向内側へ向かうように傾斜した受け面が設けられた脇突起がそれぞれ設けられ、他方の部材の幅方向両側における上記周囲部の高さ方向の中途部には金属製の脇弾性部材がそれぞれ設けられ、上記複数のコア組立体と上記フードハウジングとが正規の相対位置に配置されると、これらの脇弾性部材が脇突起の受け面の奥行き方向中途部にそれぞれ掛かるように構成されており、上記当て面が上記周囲部の幅方向両側の端部と、この周囲部の高さ方向の中途部を境に高さ方向の両側に配置されている。   The elastic body-divided connector according to the present invention has an insulating core housing and a connecting portion to be connected to the mating contact when the depth direction, the height direction, and the width direction are orthogonal to each other. Provided in the core housing so that the lead that is disposed on the front side in the depth direction and is to be surface-mounted on the mounting member is disposed near the end on the mounting side, which is one side in the height direction of the core housing. Each of a plurality of core assemblies arranged in a normal relative position, and a plurality of core assemblies to be surface-mounted side by side in the width direction on a mounting member. And a plurality of individual frames integrally formed with receiving spaces for receiving the contacts of the respective core assemblies and the counterpart contacts corresponding thereto. An insulating hood housing having a frame and a cylindrical hood that extends from each individual frame in the integrated frame to the near side in the depth direction and is respectively fitted to the mating connector; One of the surrounding portions surrounding the contact connection portion in the depth direction in each core housing and the surrounding portion surrounding the receiving space in the depth direction in the individual frame corresponding to the core housing is oriented in the depth direction. A plurality of core assemblies and the hood housing are formed in a plurality of locations on the other peripheral portion, with a surface that is sufficiently smaller in area than the peripheral portion raised in the depth direction. Are placed at regular relative positions, these peripheral parts are almost opposite to each other and all the contact surfaces of the other peripheral part are in contact with each other. Among the core housings and the individual frame bodies corresponding to the core housings, in the middle in the height direction of the peripheral portion on both sides in the width direction, the width direction from the one member Side protrusions provided with receiving surfaces that protrude outward and are inclined toward the inner side in the width direction toward the inner side in the depth direction are provided, and the height of the peripheral portion on both sides in the width direction of the other member Metal side elastic members are respectively provided in the middle of the direction, and when the plurality of core assemblies and the hood housing are disposed at regular relative positions, these side elastic members are supported by the side protrusion receiving surfaces. The abutment surfaces are arranged on both sides in the height direction with the end portions on both sides in the width direction of the peripheral portion and the middle portions in the height direction of the peripheral portion as boundaries. Arranged .

プリント配線板又はその他の実装先部材の表面に複数のコア組立体を幅方向に並べて配置し、コンタクトのリードを実装先部材の表面にハンダ付けすると、これらのコア組立体が実装先部材へ実装される。そして、これらのコア組立体の奥行き方向手前にフードハウジングを位置づけ、各コア組立体及びこれに対応する個別枠体ごとに各脇弾性部材を各脇突起の受け面にそれぞれ掛けると、各脇弾性部材の弾性復原力が受け面に作用し、各コアハウジングとこれに対応する個別枠体との間に奥行き方向に沿って引き寄せ力が作用する。受け面は奥行き方向に沿って或る程度の長さをもつので、各コアハウジングとこれに対応する個別枠体との奥行き方向の相対位置が正規の相対位置からずれても、このずれがこの長さの範囲に収まれば脇弾性部材は受け面に掛かり、引き寄せ力が作用する。しかも、脇弾性部材が金属製であるので、樹脂製である場合に較べると熱変形が小さいことから、ずれが生じても脇弾性部材が受け面から外れにくい。また、脇弾性部材は脇突起の受け面に掛かっているだけであり、脇突起に固定されてはいないので、複数のコア組立体とフードハウジングとは、奥行き方向のみならず他の方向に沿っても相対移動が可能である。   When multiple core assemblies are arranged side by side in the width direction on the surface of a printed wiring board or other mounting destination member, and the contact leads are soldered to the surface of the mounting destination member, these core assemblies are mounted on the mounting destination member. Is done. Then, when the hood housing is positioned in front of the core assembly in the depth direction, and each side elastic member is hung on the receiving surface of each side protrusion for each core assembly and the corresponding individual frame, The elastic restoring force of the member acts on the receiving surface, and a pulling force acts along the depth direction between each core housing and the corresponding individual frame. Since the receiving surface has a certain length along the depth direction, even if the relative position in the depth direction between each core housing and the corresponding individual frame body deviates from the normal relative position, this shift is If it falls within the length range, the side elastic member is applied to the receiving surface, and a pulling force acts. In addition, since the side elastic member is made of metal, thermal deformation is small as compared with the case where the side elastic member is made of resin. Therefore, even if a shift occurs, the side elastic member is unlikely to come off from the receiving surface. Further, since the side elastic member only hangs on the receiving surface of the side protrusion and is not fixed to the side protrusion, the plurality of core assemblies and the hood housing are not only in the depth direction but also in other directions. Even relative movement is possible.

その場合、複数のコア組立体を実装先部材に表面実装してからこれらにフードハウジングが組み付けられるので、ハンダ付けの対象となる部材の熱容量が減り、確実な表面実装とフードの熱変形防止とが実現される。   In that case, since the hood housing is assembled to the mounting destination member after the surface mounting of the plurality of core assemblies, the heat capacity of the member to be soldered is reduced, and reliable surface mounting and prevention of thermal deformation of the hood are achieved. Is realized.

また、実装された複数のコア組立体が正規の相対位置に配置されていると、各コアハウジング及びこれに対応する個別枠体において、上記引き寄せ力により一方の周囲部に他方の当て面が全て接触し、これが全てのコアハウジング及びこれに対応する個別枠体で実現し、全てのコア組立体とフードハウジングとの相対位置が確定し、その位置に保持される。一方、実装された複数のコア組立体が正規の相対位置からずれていた場合、つまり実装された複数のコア組立体が互いに奥行き方向、幅方向、高さ方向、又はこれらを組み合わせた方向に沿ってずれているときには、各コアハウジング及びこれに対応する個別枠体において、上記引き寄せ力により一方の周囲部に他方の当て面のうち一部の当て面が接触する。しかし、全てのコアハウジング及びこれに対応する個別枠体でみると、全ての一方の周囲部に全ての他方の当て面のうち3つ以上の当て面が接触すると、全てのコア組立体とフードハウジングとの相対位置が確定し、その位置に保持される。従って、実装先部材に実装された複数のコア組立体が正規の相対位置からずれていても複数のコア組立体に対するフードハウジングの組み付け位置が容易に確定し、良好な組み付け作業性が得られる。また、個別枠体を一体的に設けてなる統合枠体から複数のフードが延びているので、フード周りの防水性が向上する。   In addition, when the plurality of mounted core assemblies are arranged at regular relative positions, in each core housing and the corresponding individual frame body, the other abutment surface is entirely in one peripheral portion by the pulling force. This is achieved by all the core housings and the corresponding individual frames, and the relative positions of all the core assemblies and the hood housings are determined and held in that position. On the other hand, when the mounted core assemblies are displaced from the normal relative positions, that is, the mounted core assemblies are along the depth direction, the width direction, the height direction, or a combination thereof. When each of the core housings and the corresponding individual frame body is displaced, a part of the other contact surface comes into contact with one peripheral portion by the pulling force. However, in the case of all the core housings and the corresponding individual frame bodies, when three or more contact surfaces of all the other contact surfaces are in contact with all one peripheral portion, all the core assemblies and hoods The relative position with respect to the housing is determined and held at that position. Therefore, even if the plurality of core assemblies mounted on the mounting destination member are deviated from the normal relative positions, the assembly position of the hood housing with respect to the plurality of core assemblies can be easily determined, and good assembly workability can be obtained. Further, since the plurality of hoods extend from the integrated frame formed by integrally providing the individual frames, the waterproofness around the hood is improved.

本発明の弾性体掛け分割コネクタは、次のようにしてもよい。すなわち、上記各コアハウジング及びこれに対応する個別枠体のうち一方の部材における高さ方向の他方側である反実装側の端部には、この一方の部材から反実装側に突出し且つ奥行き方向奥側には奥へ向かうにつれて実装側へ向かうように傾斜した受け面が設けられた頭突起が設けられ、他方の部材の反実装側の端部には金属製の頭弾性部材が設けられ、上記複数のコア組立体と上記フードハウジングとが正規の相対位置に配置されると、この頭弾性部材が頭突起の受け面の奥行き方向中途部に掛かるように構成されている。   The elastic body-hanging divided connector of the present invention may be as follows. That is, the end portion on the non-mounting side which is the other side in the height direction of one member of each core housing and the corresponding individual frame body protrudes from the one member to the non-mounting side and is in the depth direction. A head projection provided with a receiving surface inclined toward the mounting side as it goes toward the back is provided on the back side, and a metal head elastic member is provided at the end on the opposite side of the other member, When the plurality of core assemblies and the hood housing are disposed at regular relative positions, the head elastic member is configured to be hooked in the middle in the depth direction of the receiving surface of the head protrusion.

このようにすれば、各脇弾性部材を各脇突起に掛けたときの手順と同様に、各コア組立体及びこれに対応する個別枠体ごとに頭弾性部材を頭突起に掛けると、頭弾性部材の弾性復原力が頭突起の受け面に作用し、各コアハウジングとこれに対応する個別枠体との間に奥行き方向に沿って引き寄せ力が作用する。受け面は奥行き方向に沿って或る程度の長さをもつので、各コアハウジングとこれに対応する個別枠体との奥行き方向の相対位置が正規の相対位置からずれても、このずれがこの長さの範囲に収まれば頭弾性部材は受け面に掛かり、引き寄せ力が作用する。しかも、頭弾性部材が金属製であるので、樹脂製である場合に較べると熱変形が小さいことから、ずれが生じても頭弾性部材が受け面から外れにくい。また、頭弾性部材は頭突起の受け面に掛かっているだけであり、頭突起に固定されてはいないので、依然として複数のコア組立体とフードハウジングとは、奥行き方向のみならず他の方向に沿っても相対移動が可能である。そのため、先に説明した弾性体掛け分割コネクタの作用が補強される。   In this way, when the head elastic member is hung on the head protrusion for each core assembly and the corresponding individual frame as in the procedure when each side elastic member is hung on each side protrusion, The elastic restoring force of the member acts on the receiving surface of the head projection, and a pulling force acts along the depth direction between each core housing and the corresponding individual frame. Since the receiving surface has a certain length along the depth direction, even if the relative position in the depth direction between each core housing and the corresponding individual frame body deviates from the normal relative position, this shift is When the length is within the range, the head elastic member is applied to the receiving surface, and a pulling force acts. In addition, since the head elastic member is made of metal, thermal deformation is small compared to the case where the head elastic member is made of resin. Therefore, even if a deviation occurs, the head elastic member is unlikely to come off the receiving surface. In addition, since the head elastic member only hangs on the receiving surface of the head protrusion and is not fixed to the head protrusion, the plurality of core assemblies and the hood housing are not only in the depth direction but also in other directions. Relative movement is also possible along. Therefore, the action of the elastic body-hanging divided connector described above is reinforced.

本発明の弾性体掛け分割コネクタは、次のようにしてもよい。すなわち、二つの脇弾性部材及び頭弾性部材が、共に上記各コアハウジング及びこれに対応する個別枠体のうち一方の部材に設けられており、二つの脇弾性部材の反実装側の端部が頭弾性部材の幅方向両側の端部にそれぞれ一体的に設けられており、上記一方の部材の幅方向両側の端部には、高さ方向に延びると共に幅方向外側に向かって開放され且つ高さ方向の一部が幅方向内側に開放された脇溝が設けられ、上記一方の部材の反実装側の端部には、幅方向に延びると共に反実装側に向かって開放され且つ幅方向の一部が高さ方向内側に開放された頭溝が設けられており、脇弾性部材がその高さ方向の一部を上記一方の部材の内側に出して脇溝に収容され、頭弾性部材がその中途部を上記一方の部材の内側に出して頭溝に収容されている。   The elastic body-hanging divided connector of the present invention may be as follows. That is, the two side elastic members and the head elastic member are both provided on one member of the core housing and the corresponding individual frame, and the end portions on the opposite side of the two side elastic members are provided. The head elastic member is integrally provided at both end portions in the width direction. The one end portion on both sides in the width direction extends in the height direction and is open toward the outside in the width direction. A side groove having a part in the width direction opened to the inside in the width direction is provided, and an end portion on the counter-mounting side of the one member extends in the width direction and is open toward the counter-mounting side. A head groove, a part of which is open to the inside in the height direction, is provided, and the side elastic member is placed in the side groove with a part of the height direction inside the one member, and the head elastic member is The midway part is taken out inside said one member, and is accommodated in the head groove.

このようにすれば、二つの脇弾性部材と頭弾性部材が一体的に設けられるので、部品点数が減る。しかも、二つの脇弾性部材と頭弾性部材の各コアハウジング又はこれに対応する個別枠体への組み付けが1工程で済む。   In this way, since the two side elastic members and the head elastic member are integrally provided, the number of parts is reduced. In addition, the assembly of the two side elastic members and the head elastic member to each core housing or the corresponding individual frame body is completed in one step.

本発明の弾性体掛け分割コネクタは、次のようにしてもよい。すなわち、上記各コアハウジング及びこれに対応する個別枠体のうち一方の部材における実装側の端部には、奥行き方向に沿って延び且つ先端に、他方の部材を貫通して背面に掛かることができるフックを有するロック部材が設けられており、このフックと上記他方の部材の背面は、上記複数のコア組立体と上記フードハウジングとが正規の相対位置に配置されているときに奥行き方向に沿って所定のクリアランスで離間している。   The elastic body-hanging divided connector of the present invention may be as follows. In other words, the mounting side end of one member of each core housing and the corresponding individual frame body may extend along the depth direction and pass through the other member to the rear surface at the tip. A lock member having a hook that can be formed is provided, and the back surface of the hook and the other member extends along the depth direction when the plurality of core assemblies and the hood housing are disposed at regular relative positions. Are separated by a predetermined clearance.

このようにすれば、頭弾性部材の弾性復原力により各コアハウジングとこれに対応する個別枠体との間に作用する引き寄せ力が過大になり、各コアハウジングの実装側の端部とこれに対応する個別枠体の実装側の端部とが離間しようとしても、ロック部材のフックが他方の部材の背面に掛かるので、このような動きが抑制される。   In this way, the pulling force acting between each core housing and the corresponding individual frame body becomes excessive due to the elastic restoring force of the head elastic member, and the mounting side end of each core housing and Even if the end of the corresponding individual frame is to be separated from the mounting side, such a movement is suppressed because the hook of the lock member is hooked on the back surface of the other member.

本発明の弾性体掛け分割コネクタは、フードハウジングにおける個別枠体同士の境界付近の部分の剛性が、他の部分の剛性よりも低く設けられてもよい。   In the elastic body-hanging divided connector of the present invention, the rigidity of the portion in the vicinity of the boundary between the individual frames in the hood housing may be provided lower than the rigidity of the other portions.

このようにすれば、低剛性の部位が変形することにより、各コアハウジング及びこれに対応する個別枠体において一方の周囲部に他方の当て面のうち、より多くの当て面が接触する。そのため、先に説明した弾性体掛け分割コネクタの作用が補強される。   If it does in this way, when a low-rigidity part deform | transforms, in each core housing and the individual frame corresponding to this, more contact surfaces will contact one peripheral part among the other contact surfaces. Therefore, the action of the elastic body-hanging divided connector described above is reinforced.

本発明の弾性体掛け分割コネクタは、次のようにしてもよい。すなわち、一部のコンタクトのリードがコアハウジングの実装側の端部付近よりも奥行き方向手前側に設けられており、フードハウジングには奥行き方向奥側に向かって開放された収納部が設けられ、この収納部は、実装先部材を受け入れると共に実装先部材の実装面の裏面に実装された他の実装部材が収納可能に設けられている。   The elastic body-hanging divided connector of the present invention may be as follows. That is, the leads of some contacts are provided on the near side in the depth direction from the vicinity of the end portion on the mounting side of the core housing, and the hood housing is provided with a storage portion that is opened toward the back side in the depth direction. The storage portion is provided so as to receive the mounting destination member and to store other mounting members mounted on the back surface of the mounting surface of the mounting destination member.

このようにすれば、実装先部材の端縁にコネクタを実装する場合に較べると、高さ方向からみたコネクタ及び実装先部材の専有面積が小さくなる。   In this way, compared to the case where the connector is mounted on the edge of the mounting member, the area occupied by the connector and the mounting member viewed from the height direction is reduced.

本発明の弾性体掛け分割コネクタは、次のようにしてもよい。すなわち、接続部が反実装側寄りにあるコンタクトでは、接続部とリードとの間の部分が、ほぼ高さ方向に沿って延びており、接続部が実装側寄りにあるコンタクトでは、接続部とリードとの間の部分が湾曲しており、リードの先端が接続部の先端よりも奥行き方向手前側になるように設けられている。   The elastic body-hanging divided connector of the present invention may be as follows. That is, in the contact where the connection portion is closer to the mounting side, the portion between the connection portion and the lead extends substantially along the height direction, and in the contact where the connection portion is closer to the mounting side, the connection portion and The portion between the lead and the lead is curved, and the tip of the lead is provided so as to be closer to the front side in the depth direction than the tip of the connecting portion.

このようにすれば、接続部が反実装側寄りにあるコンタクトでは、接続部が実装側寄りにあるコンタクトよりも接続部とリードとの間の部分の長さが高さ方向に沿って長くなるので、この部分の変形により、リードと実装先部材との間に形成されるハンダ付け部にかかる負荷が吸収され、ハンダ付け部にクラックが入りにくくなる。しかも、接続部とリードとの間の部分が、ほぼ高さ方向に沿って延びているので、この部分を湾曲させた場合に較べると高さ方向からみたコンタクトの専有面積が小さくなる。   In this way, the contact between the connection part and the lead is longer in the height direction in the contact where the connection part is closer to the mounting side than the contact where the connection part is closer to the mounting side. Therefore, the deformation of this portion absorbs the load applied to the soldering portion formed between the lead and the mounting member, and the soldering portion is difficult to crack. In addition, since the portion between the connecting portion and the lead extends substantially along the height direction, the exclusive area of the contact as viewed from the height direction becomes smaller than when the portion is curved.

また、接続部が実装側寄りにあるコンタクトでは、接続部が反実装側寄りにあるコンタクトよりも接続部とリードとの高さ方向の距離が短いが、この間の部分が湾曲しているので、十分な長さが確保され、この部分の変形により、リードと実装先部材との間に形成されるハンダ付け部にかかる負荷が吸収され、ハンダ付け部にクラックが入りにくくなる。しかも、リードの先端が接続部の先端よりも奥行き方向手前側になるので、高さ方向からみたときにリードのハンダ付け部が接続部先端によって隠れることがなく視認しやすい。   In addition, in the contact where the connection portion is closer to the mounting side, the distance in the height direction between the connection portion and the lead is shorter than the contact where the connection portion is closer to the mounting side, but the portion in between is curved, A sufficient length is ensured, and the deformation of this portion absorbs the load applied to the soldering portion formed between the lead and the mounting destination member, and the soldering portion is difficult to crack. In addition, since the tip of the lead is in front of the connection portion in the depth direction, the soldered portion of the lead is not hidden by the connection portion tip when viewed from the height direction and is easily visible.

本発明の弾性体掛け分割コネクタは、各コアハウジングの幅方向両側の端部には、奥行き方向に延びる本体と、この本体の奥行き方向両側の端部の付近で実装側へ延びる二つのリードと、本体と各リードとの間に一体的に設けられ且つ本体及びリードの剛性よりも低い剛性の応力吸収部とを備えた補強タブが設けられてもよい。   The elastic body-hanging divided connector of the present invention has a main body extending in the depth direction at the ends on both sides in the width direction of each core housing, and two leads extending toward the mounting side in the vicinity of the ends on both sides in the depth direction of the main body. A reinforcing tab provided integrally between the main body and each lead and having a stress absorbing portion having rigidity lower than the rigidity of the main body and the lead may be provided.

このようにすれば、応力吸収部の変形により、弾性体掛け分割コネクタが受ける応力が吸収される。   If it does in this way, the stress which an elastic body hanging split connector receives will be absorbed by modification of a stress absorption part.

本発明の弾性体掛け分割コネクタを用いると、確実な表面実装とフードの熱変形防止とを実現でき、実装先部材に実装された複数のコア組立体が正規の相対位置からずれていても複数のコア組立体に対するフードハウジングの組み付け位置が容易に確定し、良好な組み付け作業性が得られる。また、フード周りの防水性が向上する。   By using the elastic body-split / divided connector of the present invention, reliable surface mounting and prevention of thermal deformation of the hood can be realized, and even if a plurality of core assemblies mounted on the mounting destination member are displaced from their normal relative positions, The assembly position of the hood housing with respect to the core assembly is easily determined, and good assembly workability can be obtained. In addition, the waterproofness around the hood is improved.

上記弾性体掛け分割コネクタに、さらに頭突起及び頭弾性部材を設けたときには、先に説明した弾性体掛け分割コネクタの作用が補強されるので、複数のコア組立体に対するフードハウジングの組み付け位置がさらに容易に確定し、さらに良好な組み付け作業性が得られる。   When the elastic body-hanging divided connector is further provided with a head protrusion and a head elastic member, the action of the elastic body-hanging divided connector described above is reinforced, so that the assembly position of the hood housing with respect to the plurality of core assemblies is further increased. It can be easily determined and better assembly workability can be obtained.

上記弾性体掛け分割コネクタで、二つの脇弾性部材及び頭弾性部材を一体的に設け、コア組立体又はこれに対応する個別枠体に脇溝及び頭溝を設けたときには、部品点数が減り、弾性部材の組み付けが1工程で済む。   In the elastic body-hanging divided connector, when two side elastic members and a head elastic member are integrally provided, and when a side groove and a head groove are provided in the core assembly or an individual frame corresponding thereto, the number of parts is reduced, The assembly of the elastic member is completed in one step.

上記弾性体掛け分割コネクタに、さらにロック部材を設けたときには、頭弾性部材の弾性復原力を受けて各コアハウジングの実装側の端部とこれに対応する個別枠体の実装側の端部とが離間する動きを抑制することができる。   When the elastic member-hanging connector is further provided with a lock member, it receives the elastic restoring force of the head elastic member, the end portion on the mounting side of each core housing, and the corresponding end portion on the mounting side of the individual frame body Can be separated from each other.

上記弾性体掛け分割コネクタのフードハウジングにおける個別枠体同士の境界付近の部分の剛性を他の部分の剛性よりも低く設けたときには、各コアハウジング及びこれに対応する個別枠体において一方の周囲部に他方の当て面のうち、より多くの当て面が接触するので、先に説明した弾性体掛け分割コネクタの作用が補強される。   When the rigidity of the portion in the vicinity of the boundary between the individual frame bodies in the hood housing of the elastic body-divided connector is set lower than the rigidity of the other portions, one peripheral portion in each core housing and the corresponding individual frame body Since more contact surfaces of the other contact surfaces are in contact with each other, the action of the elastic body-hanging divided connector described above is reinforced.

上記弾性体掛け分割コネクタの一部のコンタクトのリードをコアハウジングの実装側の端部付近よりも奥行き方向手前側に設け、フードハウジングに奥行き方向奥側に向かって開放された収納部を設け、この収納部で、実装先部材を受け入れると共に実装先部材の実装面の裏面に実装された他の実装部材を収納可能にしたときには、実装先部材の端縁にコネクタを実装する場合に較べると、高さ方向からみたコネクタ及び実装先部材の専有面積が小さくなる。   Leads of some contacts of the elastic body-divided split connector are provided on the near side in the depth direction from the vicinity of the end portion on the mounting side of the core housing, and a storage portion is provided on the hood housing that is opened toward the back side in the depth direction. In this storage portion, when receiving the mounting destination member and making it possible to store other mounting members mounted on the back surface of the mounting surface of the mounting destination member, compared to mounting a connector on the edge of the mounting destination member, The exclusive area of the connector and the mounting destination member as seen from the height direction is reduced.

上記弾性体掛け分割コネクタで、接続部が反実装側寄りにあるコンタクトでは接続部とリードとの間の部分をほぼ高さ方向に沿って延ばし、接続部が実装側寄りにあるコンタクトでは接続部とリードとの間の部分を湾曲させ、リードの先端が接続部の先端よりも奥行き方向手前側になるように設けたときには、接続部が反実装側寄りにあるコンタクトでも接続部が実装側寄りにあるコンタクトでも、ハンダ付け部にかかる負荷が吸収され、ハンダ付け部にクラックが入りにくくなると共に、高さ方向からみたコンタクトの専有面積の低減とリードのハンダ付け部の視認性の向上とを実現することができる。   In the above-mentioned elastic body split connector, the contact between the connection part and the lead is extended substantially along the height direction in the contact where the connection part is closer to the mounting side, and the connection part is the connection part in the contact where the connection part is closer to the mounting side. When the lead is bent so that the tip of the lead is closer to the front side in the depth direction than the tip of the connection part, even if the connection part is closer to the mounting side, the connection part is closer to the mounting side. Even in the case of the contact, the load applied to the soldered part is absorbed, cracks are less likely to enter the soldered part, the area occupied by the contact viewed from the height direction is reduced, and the visibility of the soldered part of the lead is improved. Can be realized.

上記弾性体掛け分割コネクタに、応力吸収部を有する補強タブを設けたときには、応力吸収部の変形により、弾性体掛け分割コネクタが受ける応力が吸収される。   When a reinforcing tab having a stress absorbing portion is provided in the elastic body hanging divided connector, the stress received by the elastic body hanging divided connector is absorbed by the deformation of the stress absorbing portion.

In this embodiment, the contact 120 has a male shape, and the contact included in the mating connector has a female shape corresponding to the contact 120. However, the contacts of the core assembly may be female.

The lead 123 is disposed in the vicinity of the end on the mounting side, which is one side of the core housing 110 in the height direction.

フードハウジング200は、幅方向に並ぶ複数の個別枠体211を一体的に設けてなる統合枠体210と、この統合枠体210における各個別枠体211にそれぞれ設けられた筒形のフード220とを備えている。個別枠体211は、正規の相対位置に配置された上記複数のコア組立体100のそれぞれに対応して設けられている。コア組立体100の正規の相対位置とは、実装先部材700に設計目標どおりに実装されたときの複数のコア組立体100の相対位置である。個別枠体211の内側には、各コア組立体100のコンタクト120及びそれに対応する相手側コンタクトを受け入れる受入空間211aが形成されている。フード220は、統合枠体210における各個別枠体211から奥行き方向の手前へそれぞれ延びており、これらのフード220は相手側コネクタにそれぞれ嵌合されることになる。   The hood housing 200 includes an integrated frame 210 formed by integrally providing a plurality of individual frames 211 arranged in the width direction, and a cylindrical hood 220 provided on each individual frame 211 in the integrated frame 210. I have. The individual frame body 211 is provided in correspondence with each of the plurality of core assemblies 100 arranged at regular relative positions. The normal relative position of the core assembly 100 is the relative position of the plurality of core assemblies 100 when mounted on the mounting destination member 700 according to the design target. Inside the individual frame 211, a receiving space 211a for receiving the contact 120 of each core assembly 100 and a counterpart contact corresponding thereto is formed. The hood 220 extends from the individual frame 211 in the integrated frame 210 to the near side in the depth direction, and these hoods 220 are respectively fitted to the mating connectors.

図8に示すように、各コアハウジング110における奥行き方向にみてコンタクト120の接続部122を取り囲む周囲部111は、奥行き方向に向いた平面に形成されている。奥行き方向に向いた平面とは、奥行き方向に直交する平面である。また、図2及び図6に示すように、このコアハウジング110に対応する個別枠体211における奥行き方向にみて受入空間211aを取り囲む周囲部211bには、当て面211cが複数箇所に設けられている。すなわち、周囲部211bの複数箇所には、面積がこの周囲部211bよりも十分に小さい面が奥行き方向に盛り上がっており、この面によって当て面211cが形成されている。当て面211cは奥行き方向に向いている。そして、複数のコア組立体100とフードハウジング200とが正規の相対位置に配置されると、コアハウジング110の周囲部111と個別枠体211の周囲部211bとがほぼ対向してコアハウジング110の周囲部111と個別枠体211の周囲部211bの全ての当て面211cとが接触するように構成されている。複数のコア組立体100とフードハウジング200とが正規の相対位置にあることとは、実装先部材700に設計目標どおりに実装されたときの複数のコア組立体100に対し、フードハウジング200が設計目標どおりの相対関係でもって組み付けられたときの複数のコア組立体100とフードハウジング200との相対位置である。この実施形態では各コアハウジング110の周囲部111を奥行き方向に向いた平面に形成すると共に、このコアハウジング110に対応する個別枠体211の周囲部211bに複数の当て面211cを設けたが、逆に各個別枠体の周囲部を奥行き方向に向いた平面に形成すると共に、この個別枠体に対応するコアハウジングの周囲部に複数の当て面を設け、この複数のコア組立体とフードハウジングとが正規の相対位置に配置されると全ての個別枠体の周囲部と全ての当て面とが接触するように構成してもよい。   As shown in FIG. 8, the peripheral portion 111 surrounding the connection portion 122 of the contact 120 as viewed in the depth direction in each core housing 110 is formed in a plane facing the depth direction. The plane oriented in the depth direction is a plane orthogonal to the depth direction. Further, as shown in FIGS. 2 and 6, a plurality of contact surfaces 211 c are provided in a peripheral portion 211 b surrounding the receiving space 211 a as viewed in the depth direction of the individual frame 211 corresponding to the core housing 110. . That is, at a plurality of locations of the peripheral portion 211b, surfaces having a sufficiently smaller area than the peripheral portion 211b swell in the depth direction, and a contact surface 211c is formed by this surface. The contact surface 211c faces in the depth direction. When the plurality of core assemblies 100 and the hood housing 200 are disposed at regular relative positions, the peripheral portion 111 of the core housing 110 and the peripheral portion 211b of the individual frame 211 are substantially opposed to each other. The peripheral part 111 and all the contact surfaces 211c of the peripheral part 211b of the individual frame body 211 are configured to contact each other. The fact that the plurality of core assemblies 100 and the hood housing 200 are in a proper relative position means that the hood housing 200 is designed with respect to the plurality of core assemblies 100 when mounted on the mounting destination member 700 according to the design target. This is the relative position between the plurality of core assemblies 100 and the hood housing 200 when assembled with a target relative relationship. In this embodiment, the peripheral portion 111 of each core housing 110 is formed in a plane facing the depth direction, and a plurality of contact surfaces 211c are provided on the peripheral portion 211b of the individual frame 211 corresponding to the core housing 110. On the contrary, the periphery of each individual frame is formed in a plane facing in the depth direction, and a plurality of contact surfaces are provided on the periphery of the core housing corresponding to the individual frame, and the plurality of core assemblies, the hood housings, May be configured such that the peripheral portions of all the individual frame members and all the contact surfaces come into contact with each other when they are arranged at regular relative positions.

Of each core housing 110 and the corresponding individual frame 211, the core housing 110 is provided with a side protrusion 310, and the individual frame 211 is provided with a metal side elastic member 320 that is elastically deformable. . The side protrusions 310 are respectively provided in midway portions in the height direction of the peripheral portion 111 on both sides in the width direction of the core housing 110. The side protrusions 310 protrude outward in the width direction from the core housing 110. The outer side in the width direction is the side away from the center in the width direction. A receiving surface 311 is formed on each side protrusion 310 on the back side in the depth direction. The receiving surface 311 is inclined so as to go inward in the width direction as it goes back. The inner side in the width direction is the side closer to the center in the width direction. The side elastic members 320 are respectively provided in midway portions in the height direction of the peripheral portion 211b on both sides of the individual frame body 211 in the width direction. The side elastic member 320 of this embodiment is a round bar made of stainless steel, but the material may be a metal, and the cross-sectional shape is not limited to a circle. The side elastic member may be rod-shaped as described above, or may be a thin plate or other shapes. The side elastic member 320 extends in the height direction, and the end on the mounting side is a free end. Then, when the plurality of core assemblies 100 and the hood housing 200 are disposed at regular relative positions, the side elastic members 320 are respectively engaged with the intermediate portions in the depth direction of the receiving surfaces 311 of the side protrusions 310. It is configured. In the case of this embodiment, a guide surface 312 is formed on the near side in the depth direction of each side protrusion 310 so as to incline toward the inner side in the width direction. Therefore, as shown in FIG. 15, when the hood housing 200 is positioned in front of the plurality of core assemblies 100 in the depth direction and is pushed inward, the side elastic member 320 is guided to the guide surface as shown in FIGS. 16 to 17. It is guided by 312 and elastically deforms outward in the width direction, so that it gets over the side projection 310 and is hooked on the receiving surface 311. 15 to 17, the left side shows the side protrusion 310 and the side elastic member 320 on one side of one core assembly 100, and the right side shows the side protrusion 310 and the side elasticity of one side of the other core assembly 100. Member 320 is shown. In this embodiment, the side projection 310 is provided on the core housing 110 and the side elastic member 320 is provided on the individual frame 211. Conversely, the side elastic member may be provided on the core housing, and the side projection may be provided on the individual frame. . In this embodiment, one set of the side protrusions 310 and the side elastic members 320 are provided on both sides in the width direction of each core housing 110 and the corresponding individual frame 211, but two or more sets may be provided. The number of sets provided in may be different. Further, the number of sets provided for each core housing 110 and the corresponding individual frame 211 may be different.

そして、図2及び図6に示すように、上記当て面211cは、個別枠体211の周囲部211bにおける幅方向両側の端部と、この周囲部211bの高さ方向の中途部を境に高さ方向の両側に配置されている。当て面をコアハウジングの周囲部に設けるときは、当て面は、コアハウジングの周囲部における幅方向両側の端部と、この周囲部の高さ方向の中途部を境に高さ方向の両側に配置されることになる。   As shown in FIGS. 2 and 6, the abutting surface 211 c is high at the boundary between the end portions on both sides in the width direction of the peripheral portion 211 b of the individual frame body 211 and the middle portion in the height direction of the peripheral portion 211 b. It is arranged on both sides in the vertical direction. When the contact surface is provided on the periphery of the core housing, the contact surface is located on both ends in the height direction with the end on both sides in the width direction in the periphery of the core housing and the middle part in the height direction of the periphery. Will be placed.

さらに、各コアハウジング110及びこれに対応する個別枠体211のうち、コアハウジング110には頭突起330が設けられ、個別枠体211には弾性変形可能な金属製の頭弾性部材340が設けられており、これらも引き寄せ装置300の一部を構成している。上記頭突起330は、コアハウジング110における高さ方向の他方側である反実装側の端部に設けられている。頭突起330は一つのコアハウジング110において幅方向に間隔をあけて二つ設けられている。頭突起330はコアハウジング110から反実装側に突出している。頭突起330の奥行き方向奥側には受け面331が形成されている。この受け面331は、奥へ向かうにつれて実装側へ向かうように傾斜している。頭弾性部材340は、個別枠体211の反実装側に設けられている。この実施形態の頭弾性部材340はステンレス鋼よりなる丸棒であるが、材質は金属であればよく、また断面形状も円に限らない。頭弾性部材はこのように棒状であってもよいし、細い板状又はその他の形状であってもよい。この頭弾性部材340は、幅方向に延びている。頭弾性部材340は、頭突起330に対応して、一つの個別枠体211において幅方向に間隔をあけて二つ設けられている。そして、上記複数のコア組立体100と上記フードハウジング200とが正規の相対位置に配置されると、頭弾性部材340が頭突起330の受け面331の奥行き方向中途部に掛かるように構成されている。この実施形態の場合、各頭突起330の奥行き方向手前側にも、手前へ向かうにつれて実装側へ向かうように傾斜するガイド面が形成されている。そのため、上記複数のコア組立体100の奥行き方向手前にフードハウジング200を位置づけ、これを奥へ押し込むと、頭弾性部材340が反実装側に弾性変形することで頭突起330を乗り越えて受け面331に掛かる。この一連の作動は、図15ないし図17を用いて説明した脇突起310及び脇弾性部材320の作動と同様である。この実施形態ではコアハウジング110に頭突起330を設け、個別枠体211に頭弾性部材340を設けたが、逆にコアハウジングに頭弾性部材を設け、個別枠体に頭突起を設けてもよい。この実施形態では頭突起330及び頭弾性部材340は各コアハウジング110及びこれに対応する個別枠体211に二組ずつ設けたが、頭突起及び頭弾性部材は各コアハウジング及びこれに対応する個別枠体に一組ずつ設けてもよいし三組以上設けてもよく、各コアハウジング110及びこれに対応する個別枠体211ごとに設ける組数を異なえてもよい。また頭突起330及び頭弾性部材340の配置がこの実施形態によって限定解釈されることはない。   Further, among the core housings 110 and the corresponding individual frame bodies 211, the core housing 110 is provided with a head protrusion 330, and the individual frame body 211 is provided with a metal head elastic member 340 that can be elastically deformed. These also constitute a part of the drawing device 300. The head protrusion 330 is provided on the opposite end of the core housing 110 on the other side in the height direction. Two head protrusions 330 are provided in the core housing 110 at intervals in the width direction. The head protrusion 330 protrudes from the core housing 110 to the non-mounting side. A receiving surface 331 is formed on the back side of the head protrusion 330 in the depth direction. The receiving surface 331 is inclined so as to go to the mounting side as going to the back. The head elastic member 340 is provided on the non-mounting side of the individual frame 211. The head elastic member 340 of this embodiment is a round bar made of stainless steel, but the material may be a metal, and the cross-sectional shape is not limited to a circle. The head elastic member may be rod-shaped as described above, or may be a thin plate or other shapes. The head elastic member 340 extends in the width direction. Two head elastic members 340 are provided corresponding to the head protrusions 330 at a distance in the width direction in one individual frame 211. When the plurality of core assemblies 100 and the hood housing 200 are disposed at regular relative positions, the head elastic member 340 is configured to be hooked in the middle in the depth direction of the receiving surface 331 of the head protrusion 330. Yes. In the case of this embodiment, a guide surface is formed on the front side in the depth direction of each head projection 330 so as to be inclined toward the mounting side as it goes toward this side. Therefore, when the hood housing 200 is positioned in front of the plurality of core assemblies 100 in the depth direction and is pushed inward, the head elastic member 340 is elastically deformed to the anti-mounting side, so that the head protrusion 330 is overcome and the receiving surface 331 is received. It takes. This series of operations is the same as the operations of the side protrusions 310 and the side elastic members 320 described with reference to FIGS. In this embodiment, the head projection 330 is provided in the core housing 110 and the head elastic member 340 is provided in the individual frame 211. Conversely, a head elastic member may be provided in the core housing and the head projection may be provided in the individual frame. . In this embodiment, two sets of the head protrusion 330 and the head elastic member 340 are provided in each core housing 110 and the corresponding individual frame 211, but the head protrusion and the head elastic member correspond to each core housing and the corresponding individual frame body 211. One set may be provided in the frame body, or three or more sets may be provided, and the number of sets provided for each core housing 110 and the corresponding individual frame body 211 may be different. Further, the arrangement of the head protrusion 330 and the head elastic member 340 is not limitedly interpreted by this embodiment.

このように上記実施形態では、二つの脇弾性部材320と頭弾性部材340とが、共に上記個別枠体211に設けられている。そして、二つの脇弾性部材320の反実装側の端部が頭弾性部材340の幅方向両側の端部にそれぞれ一体的に設けられている。また、上記個別枠体211の幅方向両側の端部には、高さ方向に延びると共に幅方向外側に向かって開放され且つ高さ方向の一部が幅方向内側に開放された脇溝211dが設けられている。この実施形態では脇溝211dの実装側端部が幅方向内側に開放されている。さらに、上記個別枠体211の反実装側の端部には、幅方向に延びると共に反実装側に向かって開放され且つ幅方向の一部が高さ方向内側に開放された頭溝211eが設けられている。この実施形態では頭溝211eの幅方向における中途部二箇所が幅方向内側に開放されている。そして、脇弾性部材320がその高さ方向の一部を上記個別枠体211の内側に出して脇溝211dに収容されている。この実施形態では脇弾性部材320の実装側端部が個別枠体211の内側に出ている。また、頭弾性部材340がその中途部を上記個別枠体211の内側に出して頭溝211eに収容されている。この実施形態では頭弾性部材340の中途部二箇所が個別枠体211の内側に出ている。図1に示すように、一体的に設けられた二つの脇弾性部材320及び頭弾性部材340は、個別枠体211の反実装側に位置づけ、実装側へと押し込むことで個別枠体211に組み付けられる。211fは、頭溝211eの奥行き方向手前側の壁から奥へ突出する押さえリブである。頭弾性部材340は個別枠体211への組み付け時、その中途部を奥へ向かって弾性変形させることで押さえリブ211fを実装側へ乗り越えて頭溝211eのなかに収容され、収容後は押さえリブ211fにより反実装側への移動が阻止されるので個別枠体211から容易に脱落しない。本発明は、このような押さえリブを設けていない弾性体掛け分割コネクタの実施形態を含む。この実施形態では脇溝211d及び頭溝211eを個別枠体211に設けたが、脇溝及び頭溝をコアハウジングに設けるときも同様の構成にすればよい。   Thus, in the above embodiment, the two side elastic members 320 and the head elastic member 340 are both provided in the individual frame body 211. Then, the end portions on the opposite side of the two side elastic members 320 are integrally provided at the end portions on both sides in the width direction of the head elastic member 340. In addition, side grooves 211d that extend in the height direction and are opened toward the outside in the width direction and partially open in the width direction are formed at the end portions on both sides in the width direction of the individual frame 211.

Further, a head groove 211e that extends in the width direction and is open toward the counter-mounting side and a part of the width direction is opened inward in the height direction is provided at the end of the individual frame 211 on the counter-mounting side. It has been. In this embodiment, two midway portions in the width direction of the head groove 211e are opened inward in the width direction. Then, the side elastic member 320 is housed in the side groove 211d with a part in the height direction thereof taken out to the inside of the individual frame body 211. In this embodiment, the mounting side end of the side elastic member 320 protrudes inside the individual frame body 211. Further, the head elastic member 340 is accommodated in the head groove 211e with its midway part extending inside the individual frame 211. In this embodiment, two midway portions of the head elastic member 340 protrude inside the individual frame body 211. As shown in FIG. 1, the two side elastic members 320 and the head elastic member 340 provided integrally are positioned on the non-mounting side of the individual frame 211 and assembled to the individual frame 211 by being pushed into the mounting side. It is done. 211f is a pressing rib that protrudes from the wall on the near side in the depth direction of the head groove 211e. The head elastic member 340 is accommodated in the head groove 211e by overcoming the pressing rib 211f to the mounting side by elastically deforming the middle part of the head elastic member 340 toward the back when assembled to the individual frame 211, and after holding, the pressing rib Since the movement toward the non-mounting side is prevented by 211f, it does not easily fall off from the individual frame 211. The present invention includes an embodiment of an elastic body-hanging divided connector not provided with such a holding rib. In this embodiment, the side groove 211d and the head groove 211e are provided in the individual frame body 211. However, the same structure may be used when the side groove and the head groove are provided in the core housing.

図1、図2、図4、図6、及び図9に示すように、個別枠体211における実装側の端部には、奥行き方向に沿って延び且つ先端に、コアハウジング110を貫通してこのコアハウジング110の背面に掛かることができるフックを有するロック部材211gが設けられている。この実施形態の場合、コアハウジング110の実装側端部に高さ方向へ凹む溝が設けられ、ロック部材211gがこの溝を通ることでコアハウジング110を貫通する。コアハウジングに溝に代えて貫通孔を設けてもよい。このフックとコアハウジング110の背面は、上記複数のコア組立体100と上記フードハウジング200とが正規の相対位置に配置されているときに奥行き方向に沿って所定のクリアランスで離間している。この実施形態の場合、ロック部材211gを一方の個別枠体211にのみ設けているが、他方の個別枠体211にも設けてもよい。この実施形態ではロック部材211gを個別枠体211に設け、コアハウジング110の背面に掛かるようにしたが、ロック部材をコアハウジングに設け、個別枠体の背面に掛かるようにしてもよい。   As shown in FIGS. 1, 2, 4, 6, and 9, the end of the individual frame 211 on the mounting side extends along the depth direction and penetrates the core housing 110 at the tip. A lock member 211g having a hook that can be hooked on the back surface of the core housing 110 is provided. In the case of this embodiment, a groove recessed in the height direction is provided at the mounting side end of the core housing 110, and the lock member 211g passes through the groove so as to penetrate the core housing 110. A through hole may be provided in the core housing instead of the groove. The hook and the back surface of the core housing 110 are separated from each other by a predetermined clearance along the depth direction when the plurality of core assemblies 100 and the hood housing 200 are disposed at regular relative positions. In this embodiment, the lock member 211g is provided only on one individual frame 211, but may also be provided on the other individual frame 211. In this embodiment, the lock member 211g is provided on the individual frame 211 and hooked on the back surface of the core housing 110. However, the lock member may be provided on the core housing and hooked on the back surface of the individual frame body.

各コアハウジング110の幅方向両側の端部には、幅方向外側に突き出て且つ奥行き方向に延びるサイドリブ112がそれぞれ設けられている。また、これに対応する個別枠体の幅方向両側の端部には、幅方向内側から外側に凹み且つ奥行き方向に延びるサイドリブ溝211hがそれぞれ設けられている。そして、上記複数のコア組立体100と上記フードハウジング200とが正規の相対位置に配置されると、サイドリブ112がサイドリブ溝211hにクリアランスをもって緩く嵌るようになっており、これによってフードハウジング200を複数のコア組立体100に組み付けるときのガイド機能を果たすようにしている。本発明は、このようなサイドリブ及びサイドリブ溝を設けていない弾性体掛け分割コネクタの実施形態を含む。   Side ribs 112 projecting outward in the width direction and extending in the depth direction are provided at the ends on both sides of the core housing 110 in the width direction. In addition, side rib grooves 211h that are recessed from the inner side in the width direction to the outer side and extend in the depth direction are respectively provided at the end portions on both sides in the width direction of the individual frame body corresponding thereto. Then, when the plurality of core assemblies 100 and the hood housing 200 are disposed at regular relative positions, the side ribs 112 are loosely fitted into the side rib grooves 211h with clearance, whereby the plurality of hood housings 200 are arranged. A guide function when assembled to the core assembly 100 is achieved. The present invention includes an embodiment of an elastic body-hanging divided connector in which such side ribs and side rib grooves are not provided.

次にリブ差し装置について説明する。図1に示すように、各コアハウジング110及びこれに対応する個別枠体211のうち、個別枠体211には高さ方向に延びて可撓性を有するスリットリブ400が設けられ、コアハウジング110におけるスリットリブ400に対応する部位には高さ方向に凹んで上記スリットリブ400が嵌入することになる受け溝500が設けられている。これらのスリットリブ400は、複数のコア組立体100と上記フードハウジング200とが正規の相対位置に配置されたときに、受け溝500にそれぞれ嵌入する。図10、図18及び図21に示すように、上記スリットリブ400は、奥行き方向にみても高さ方向にみても幅方向の両側がほぼ対称に形成されている。このスリットリブ400の幅方向両側にはリブ接触面410が設けられている。このリブ接触面410は、スリットリブ400が高さ方向に沿って先端に向かうにつれて幅方向の寸法が小さくなるように傾斜している。そして、このスリットリブ400の幅方向中央の部分が先端から基端に向けて凹んでおり、これによってスリットリブ400に先端から基端に向けてスリット420が形成されている。図11、図18及び図21に示すように、上記受け溝500は、奥行き方向にみても高さ方向にみても幅方向の両側がほぼ対称に形成されている。この受け溝500の幅方向両側には受け溝接触面510が設けられている。この受け溝接触面510は、リブ接触面410に対応して傾斜している。すなわち、この受け溝接触面510は、受け溝500が高さ方向に沿って内方に向かうにつれて幅方向の寸法が小さくなるように幅方向両側に設けられた受け溝接触面510がリブ接触面410に対応して傾斜している。この実施形態では個別枠体211にスリットリブ400を設け、コアハウジング110に受け溝500を設けたが、逆にコアハウジングにスリットリブを設け、個別枠体に受け溝を設けてもよい。   Next, the rib inserting device will be described. As shown in FIG. 1, among the individual core housings 110 and the corresponding individual frame bodies 211, the individual frame bodies 211 are provided with slit ribs 400 that extend in the height direction and have flexibility. A receiving groove 500 that is recessed in the height direction and into which the slit rib 400 is inserted is provided at a portion corresponding to the slit rib 400 in FIG. These slit ribs 400 are respectively fitted into the receiving grooves 500 when the plurality of core assemblies 100 and the hood housing 200 are disposed at regular relative positions. As shown in FIGS. 10, 18 and 21, the slit rib 400 is formed substantially symmetrically on both sides in the width direction when viewed in the depth direction and in the height direction. Rib contact surfaces 410 are provided on both sides of the slit rib 400 in the width direction. The rib contact surface 410 is inclined so that the dimension in the width direction becomes smaller as the slit rib 400 moves toward the tip along the height direction. The central portion in the width direction of the slit rib 400 is recessed from the distal end toward the base end, whereby a slit 420 is formed in the slit rib 400 from the distal end toward the base end. As shown in FIGS. 11, 18, and 21, the receiving groove 500 is formed substantially symmetrically on both sides in the width direction in both the depth direction and the height direction. On both sides in the width direction of the receiving groove 500, receiving groove contact surfaces 510 are provided. The receiving groove contact surface 510 is inclined corresponding to the rib contact surface 410. That is, the receiving groove contact surfaces 510 are rib contact surfaces that are provided on both sides in the width direction so that the dimension in the width direction becomes smaller as the receiving groove 500 goes inward along the height direction. It inclines corresponding to 410. In this embodiment, the slit rib 400 is provided in the individual frame 211 and the receiving groove 500 is provided in the core housing 110. Conversely, the slit rib may be provided in the core housing, and the receiving groove may be provided in the individual frame.

図12に示すように、上記各コアハウジング110及びこれに対応する個別枠体211には、これらの部材が奥行き方向に沿って接近するにつれてこれらの部材に設けられたスリットリブ400と受け溝500とが接近するように案内するガイド装置600が設けられている。そして、正規の相対位置に配置された上記複数のコア組立体100にフードハウジング200を奥行き方向に対向して配置し、引き寄せ装置300を作動させると、ガイド装置600の作動により各スリットリブ400の対応する受け溝500への高さ方向に沿った嵌入長さが長くなるように構成されている。上記ガイド装置600について説明すると、各コアハウジング110及びこれに対応する個別枠体211のうち、個別枠体211には奥行き方向に突出し且つ高さ方向の一方側にカム面611を有するカム610が設けられ、コアハウジング110における上記カム610に対応する部位にはカム面611に接触する倣い部620が設けられている。カム面611は奥行き方向に進むにつれて若干高さ方向に変位するように傾斜している。そして、コアハウジング110と個別枠体211が奥行き方向に沿って接近するにつれて倣い部620がカム610のカム面611の奥へ案内され、カム面611の傾斜につれて高さ方向に変位し、受け溝500をスリットリブ400に向かって変位させてスリットリブ400の対応する受け溝500への高さ方向に沿った嵌入長さが長くなる。この実施形態の場合、倣い部620にカム面611に対向し且つカム面611対応して傾斜する傾斜面を設けたが、倣い部はカム面に接触する機能を発揮できればその形状は問わない。他の実施形態として、コアハウジングに奥行き方向に突出し且つ高さ方向の一方側にカム面を有するカムを設け、個別枠体におけるカムに対応する部位にカム面に接触する倣い部を設けてもよい。   As shown in FIG. 12, each of the core housings 110 and the corresponding individual frame 211 has a slit rib 400 and a receiving groove 500 provided on these members as the members approach along the depth direction. A guide device 600 is provided for guiding so as to approach each other. When the hood housing 200 is disposed in the depth direction in the plurality of core assemblies 100 disposed at regular relative positions, and the pulling device 300 is operated, the guide device 600 is operated to activate each slit rib 400. The fitting length along the height direction to the corresponding receiving groove 500 is configured to be long. The guide device 600 will be described. Among the core housings 110 and the corresponding individual frame bodies 211, the individual frame bodies 211 have cams 610 that protrude in the depth direction and have a cam surface 611 on one side in the height direction. A copying portion 620 that contacts the cam surface 611 is provided at a portion of the core housing 110 corresponding to the cam 610. The cam surface 611 is inclined so as to be slightly displaced in the height direction as it proceeds in the depth direction. Then, as the core housing 110 and the individual frame body 211 approach each other along the depth direction, the copying portion 620 is guided to the back of the cam surface 611 of the cam 610 and is displaced in the height direction as the cam surface 611 is inclined. 500 is displaced toward the slit rib 400, and the insertion length along the height direction of the slit rib 400 into the corresponding receiving groove 500 is increased. In the case of this embodiment, the copying portion 620 is provided with an inclined surface that faces the cam surface 611 and is inclined corresponding to the cam surface 611. However, the shape of the copying portion is not limited as long as it can function to contact the cam surface. As another embodiment, the core housing may be provided with a cam that protrudes in the depth direction and has a cam surface on one side in the height direction, and a copying portion that contacts the cam surface is provided at a portion corresponding to the cam in the individual frame body. Good.

図10、図18及び図21に示すように、リブ接触面410は、スリットリブ400が、それが設けられた個別枠体211から奥行き方向に沿って離れるにつれて幅方向の寸法が小さくなるように傾斜している。また、受け溝接触面510はリブ接触面410に対応して傾斜している。すなわち、図11、図18及び図21に示すように、受け溝接触面510は、受け溝500が、スリットリブ400が設けられた部材である個別枠体211に対向する側から奥行き方向に沿って反対側に向かうにつれて幅方向の寸法が小さくなるように傾斜している。この実施形態では、受け溝500は奥行き方向の奥へ行くにつれて幅方向の寸法が小さくなっている。また、図9に示すように、スリットリブ400の実装側の先端位置は、個別枠体211から奥行き方向に沿って離れるにつれて反実装側に向かうように傾斜している。この傾斜は後述するスリットリブ400と受け溝500との間の誘い込み機能が発揮されることを狙って設けたが、このような傾斜を設けなくてもよい。   As shown in FIGS. 10, 18, and 21, the rib contact surface 410 has a dimension in the width direction that decreases as the slit rib 400 moves away from the individual frame 211 provided with the slit rib 400 along the depth direction. Inclined. Further, the receiving groove contact surface 510 is inclined corresponding to the rib contact surface 410. That is, as shown in FIGS. 11, 18, and 21, the receiving groove contact surface 510 extends along the depth direction from the side where the receiving groove 500 faces the individual frame body 211 that is a member provided with the slit rib 400. The width is inclined so that the dimension in the width direction becomes smaller toward the opposite side. In this embodiment, the receiving groove 500 has a smaller dimension in the width direction as it goes deeper in the depth direction. Further, as shown in FIG. 9, the front end position of the slit rib 400 on the mounting side is inclined so as to go to the non-mounting side as the distance from the individual frame body 211 increases along the depth direction. This inclination is provided with the aim of exerting a guiding function between the slit rib 400 and the receiving groove 500 described later, but such an inclination may not be provided.

また、フードハウジング200における個別枠体同士の境界付近の部分の剛性が、他の部分の剛性よりも低く設けられている。この実施形態の場合、境界付近の部分以外の部分をPBT(ポリブチレンテレフタレート)により成形し、境界付近の部分をそれよりも剛性の低いエラストマにより形成している。このようなフードハウジングの成形は、例えば二色成形により行うと簡便に行うことができる。他に、全体の材料を均一にし、境界付近の部分の肉厚を、それ以外の部分の肉厚よりも薄く形成した実施形態がある。さらに、材料を異なえることと、肉厚を異なえることを組み合わせてもよい。しかし、この実施形態によって本発明のフードハウジングの材料選定、肉厚分布が限定解釈されることはない。   Further, the rigidity of the portion in the vicinity of the boundary between the individual frames in the hood housing 200 is provided lower than the rigidity of the other portions. In the case of this embodiment, the part other than the part near the boundary is formed by PBT (polybutylene terephthalate), and the part near the boundary is formed by an elastomer having a lower rigidity. Such a hood housing can be easily formed by, for example, two-color molding. In another embodiment, the entire material is made uniform, and the thickness of the portion near the boundary is made thinner than the thickness of the other portions. Furthermore, different materials may be combined with different wall thicknesses. However, the material selection and thickness distribution of the hood housing of the present invention are not limitedly interpreted by this embodiment.

さらに、図13に示すように、高さ方向に複数段設けられているコンタクト120のうち、接続部122が実装面寄りにある約半分のコンタクト120では、リード123がコアハウジング110の実装側の端部付近よりも奥行き方向手前側へ延びている。そして、接続部122が反実装面寄りにある残りの約半分のコンタクト120は、そのリード123がコアハウジング110の実装側の端部付近よりも奥行き方向奥側へ延びている。この変形例として、接続部が実装面寄りにある約半分のコンタクトに限らず、いずれか一部のコンタクトのリードをコアハウジングの実装側の端部付近よりも奥行き方向手前側へ延ばした弾性体掛け分割コネクタが種々含まれる。また、フードハウジング200には奥行き方向奥側に向かって開放された収納部230が設けられている。そして、この収納部230における奥行き方向手前側に、実装先部材700の奥行き方向手前側の縁を受け入れるようにしている。また、この実装先部材700の実装面(表面710)の裏面720には他の実装部材が実装可能となっており、上記収納部230における奥行き方向奥側に、この裏面720に実装された他の実装部材が収納可能となっている。   Further, as shown in FIG. 13, among the contacts 120 provided in a plurality of stages in the height direction, in the contact 120 in which the connection portion 122 is closer to the mounting surface, the lead 123 is on the mounting side of the core housing 110. It extends to the near side in the depth direction from near the end. Then, the remaining half of the contacts 120 with the connection portion 122 closer to the non-mounting surface has the lead 123 extending deeper in the depth direction than the vicinity of the end portion on the mounting side of the core housing 110. As an example of this modification, the elastic body is not limited to the half of the contact whose connection portion is closer to the mounting surface, but the lead of any one of the contacts extends to the front side in the depth direction from the vicinity of the end portion on the mounting side of the core housing. Various hook and split connectors are included. In addition, the hood housing 200 is provided with a storage portion 230 that is open toward the back side in the depth direction. Then, the edge on the near side in the depth direction of the mounting member 700 is received on the near side in the depth direction in the storage portion 230. Further, another mounting member can be mounted on the back surface 720 of the mounting surface (front surface 710) of the mounting destination member 700, and the other mounted on the back surface 720 on the back side in the depth direction of the storage unit 230. The mounting member can be stored.

また、高さ方向に複数段設けられているコンタクト120のうち、接続部122が反実装面側にある約半分のコンタクト120では、接続部122とリード123との間の部分である本体121が、ほぼ高さ方向に沿って延びている。この変形例として、接続部が反実装側寄りにある一部のコンタクトで、接続部とリードとの間の部分を、ほぼ高さ方向に沿って延ばした弾性体掛け分割コネクタが種々含まれる。さらに、高さ方向に複数段設けられているコンタクト120のうち、接続部122が実装面側にある約半分のコンタクト120では、接続部122とリード123との間の部分である本体121が湾曲しており、リード123の先端が接続部122の先端よりも奥行き方向手前側になるように設けられている。この変形例として、接続部が実装側寄りにある一部のコンタクトで、接続部とリードとの間の部分を湾曲させ、リードの先端を接続部の先端よりも奥行き方向手前側になるように設けた弾性体掛け分割コネクタが種々含まれる。   Of the contacts 120 provided in a plurality of stages in the height direction, about half of the contacts 120 in which the connection portion 122 is on the non-mounting surface side, the main body 121 that is a portion between the connection portion 122 and the lead 123 is provided. , Extending substantially along the height direction. Examples of this modification include various elastic body-split and split connectors in which a part between the connection part and the lead is extended substantially along the height direction with a part of the contact on the side opposite to the mounting side. Further, among the contacts 120 provided in a plurality of stages in the height direction, in the contact half of which the connection portion 122 is on the mounting surface side, the main body 121 that is a portion between the connection portion 122 and the lead 123 is curved. The lead 123 is provided so that the tip of the lead 123 is closer to the front side in the depth direction than the tip of the connecting portion 122. As a modified example, with some contacts with the connection part closer to the mounting side, the part between the connection part and the lead is curved so that the tip of the lead is in front of the connection part in the depth direction. Various types of provided elastic body-split and divided connectors are included.

各コアハウジング110の幅方向両側の端部には補強タブ130が設けられている。図14に示すように、この補強タブ130は、奥行き方向に延びる本体131と、この本体131の奥行き方向両側の端部の付近で実装側へ延びる二つのリード132と、本体131と各リード132との間に一体的に設けられ且つ本体131及びリード132の剛性よりも低い剛性の応力吸収部133とを備えている。   Reinforcing tabs 130 are provided at both ends of each core housing 110 in the width direction. As shown in FIG. 14, the reinforcing tab 130 includes a main body 131 extending in the depth direction, two leads 132 extending to the mounting side in the vicinity of both ends of the main body 131 in the depth direction, the main body 131, and each lead 132. And a stress absorbing portion 133 having a rigidity lower than that of the main body 131 and the lead 132.

次に第1実施形態の弾性体掛け分割コネクタCの作用及び効果を説明する。実装先部材700の表面710に複数のコア組立体100を幅方向に並べて配置し、コンタクト120のリード123を実装先部材700の表面710にハンダ付けすると、これらのコア組立体100が実装先部材700へ実装される。そして、これらのコア組立体100の奥行き方向手前にフードハウジング200を位置づけ、各コア組立体100及びこれに対応する個別枠体211ごとに各脇弾性部材320を各脇突起310の受け面311にそれぞれ掛けると、各脇弾性部材320の弾性復原力が受け面311に作用し、各コアハウジング110とこれに対応する個別枠体211との間に奥行き方向に沿って引き寄せ力が作用する。図17に示すように、受け面311は奥行き方向に沿って或る程度の長さをもつので、各コアハウジング110とこれに対応する個別枠体211との奥行き方向の相対位置が正規の相対位置からずれても、このずれがこの長さの範囲に収まれば脇弾性部材320は受け面311に掛かり、引き寄せ力が作用する。しかも、脇弾性部材320が金属製であるので、樹脂製である場合に較べると熱変形が小さいことから、ずれが生じても脇弾性部材320が受け面311から外れにくい。また、脇弾性部材320は脇突起310の受け面311に掛かっているだけであり、脇突起310に固定されてはいないので、複数のコア組立体100とフードハウジング200とは、奥行き方向のみならず他の方向に沿っても相対移動が可能である。   Next, the operation and effect of the elastic body-hanging divided connector C of the first embodiment will be described. When a plurality of core assemblies 100 are arranged in the width direction on the surface 710 of the mounting destination member 700 and the leads 123 of the contacts 120 are soldered to the surface 710 of the mounting destination member 700, these core assemblies 100 are mounted on the mounting destination member. 700. Then, the hood housing 200 is positioned in front of the core assembly 100 in the depth direction, and each side elastic member 320 is placed on the receiving surface 311 of each side projection 310 for each core assembly 100 and the corresponding individual frame 211. When each is applied, the elastic restoring force of each side elastic member 320 acts on the receiving surface 311, and a pulling force acts along the depth direction between each core housing 110 and the corresponding individual frame 211. As shown in FIG. 17, since the receiving surface 311 has a certain length along the depth direction, the relative position in the depth direction between each core housing 110 and the corresponding individual frame body 211 is a normal relative position. Even if the position is deviated, if the deviation is within this length, the side elastic member 320 is applied to the receiving surface 311 and a pulling force acts. In addition, since the side elastic member 320 is made of metal, thermal deformation is small compared to the case where it is made of resin. Therefore, the side elastic member 320 is unlikely to come off the receiving surface 311 even if a shift occurs. Further, since the side elastic member 320 is only hung on the receiving surface 311 of the side protrusion 310 and is not fixed to the side protrusion 310, the plurality of core assemblies 100 and the hood housing 200 are only in the depth direction. Relative movement is also possible along other directions.

その場合、複数のコア組立体100を実装先部材700に表面実装してからこれらにフードハウジング200が組み付けられるので、ハンダ付けの対象となる部材の熱容量が減り、確実な表面実装とフード220の熱変形防止とが実現される。   In that case, since the hood housing 200 is assembled after the plurality of core assemblies 100 are surface-mounted on the mounting member 700, the heat capacity of the member to be soldered is reduced, and reliable surface mounting and the hood 220 Prevention of thermal deformation is realized.

また、実装された複数のコア組立体100が正規の相対位置に配置されていると、各コアハウジング110及びこれに対応する個別枠体211において、上記引き寄せ力によりコアハウジング110の周囲部111に個別枠体211の当て面211cが全て接触し、これが全てのコアハウジング110及びこれに対応する個別枠体211で実現し、全てのコア組立体100とフードハウジング200との相対位置が確定し、その位置に保持される。一方、実装された複数のコア組立体100が正規の相対位置からずれていた場合、つまり実装された複数のコア組立体100が互いに奥行き方向、幅方向、高さ方向、又はこれらを組み合わせた方向に沿ってずれているときには、各コアハウジング110及びこれに対応する個別枠体211において、上記引き寄せ力によりコアハウジング110の周囲部111に個別枠体211の当て面211cのうち一部の当て面211cが接触する。しかし、全てのコアハウジング110及びこれに対応する個別枠体211でみると、全てのコアハウジング110の周囲部111に全ての個別枠体211の当て面211cのうち3つ以上の当て面211cが接触すると、全てのコア組立体100とフードハウジング200との相対位置が確定し、その位置に保持される。従って、実装先部材700に実装された複数のコア組立体100が正規の相対位置からずれていても複数のコア組立体100に対するフードハウジング200の組み付け位置が容易に確定し、良好な組み付け作業性が得られる。また、個別枠体211を一体的に設けてなる統合枠体210から複数のフード220が延びているので、フード周りの防水性が向上する。   Further, when the plurality of mounted core assemblies 100 are arranged at regular relative positions, in each core housing 110 and the individual frame body 211 corresponding thereto, the pulling force causes the peripheral portion 111 of the core housing 110 to move around. All the contact surfaces 211c of the individual frame bodies 211 come into contact with each other, which is realized by all the core housings 110 and the corresponding individual frame bodies 211, and the relative positions of all the core assemblies 100 and the hood housings 200 are determined. Held in that position. On the other hand, when the mounted core assemblies 100 are deviated from the normal relative positions, that is, the mounted core assemblies 100 are in the depth direction, the width direction, the height direction, or a combination of these. In the respective core housings 110 and the individual frame bodies 211 corresponding thereto, a part of the contact surfaces 211c of the individual frame bodies 211 on the peripheral portion 111 of the core housing 110 by the pulling force. 211c contacts. However, when viewed from all the core housings 110 and the individual frame bodies 211 corresponding thereto, three or more contact surfaces 211c among the contact surfaces 211c of all the individual frame bodies 211 are provided on the peripheral portion 111 of all the core housings 110. When contacted, the relative positions of all the core assemblies 100 and the hood housings 200 are determined and held in that position. Therefore, even when the plurality of core assemblies 100 mounted on the mounting destination member 700 are displaced from the normal relative positions, the assembly position of the hood housing 200 with respect to the plurality of core assemblies 100 can be easily determined, and good assembly workability can be achieved. Is obtained. In addition, since the plurality of hoods 220 extend from the integrated frame 210 formed by integrally providing the individual frames 211, the waterproofness around the hood is improved.

本発明の弾性体掛け分割コネクタは、頭突起及び頭弾性部材を備えていなくてもよい。しかし、上記実施形態の弾性体掛け分割コネクタCは、頭突起330及び頭弾性部材340を備えている。このようにすれば、各脇弾性部材320を各脇突起310に掛けたときの手順と同様に、各コア組立体100及びこれに対応する個別枠体211ごとに頭弾性部材340を頭突起330に掛けると、頭弾性部材340の弾性復原力が頭突起330の受け面331に作用し、各コアハウジング110とこれに対応する個別枠体211との間に奥行き方向に沿って引き寄せ力が作用する。受け面331は奥行き方向に沿って或る程度の長さをもつので、各コアハウジング110とこれに対応する個別枠体211との奥行き方向の相対位置が正規の相対位置からずれても、このずれがこの長さの範囲に収まれば頭弾性部材340は受け面331に掛かり、引き寄せ力が作用する。しかも、頭弾性部材340が金属製であるので、樹脂製である場合に較べると熱変形が小さいことから、ずれが生じても頭弾性部材340が受け面331から外れにくい。また、頭弾性部材340は頭突起330の受け面331に掛かっているだけであり、頭突起330に固定されてはいないので、依然として複数のコア組立体100とフードハウジング200とは、奥行き方向のみならず他の方向に沿っても相対移動が可能である。そのため、先に説明した弾性体掛け分割コネクタCの作用が補強される。   The elastic body division | segmentation connector of this invention does not need to be provided with the head processus | protrusion and the head elastic member. However, the elastic body-hanging divided connector C of the above embodiment includes the head protrusion 330 and the head elastic member 340. In this way, the head elastic member 340 is attached to the head protrusion 330 for each core assembly 100 and the corresponding individual frame 211 in the same manner as the procedure when the side elastic members 320 are hung on the side protrusions 310. , The elastic restoring force of the head elastic member 340 acts on the receiving surface 331 of the head protrusion 330, and a pulling force acts along the depth direction between each core housing 110 and the corresponding individual frame body 211. To do. Since the receiving surface 331 has a certain length along the depth direction, even if the relative position in the depth direction between each core housing 110 and the corresponding individual frame 211 is deviated from the normal relative position, When the deviation falls within this length range, the head elastic member 340 is applied to the receiving surface 331, and a pulling force acts. In addition, since the head elastic member 340 is made of metal, thermal deformation is small compared to the case of being made of resin, so that the head elastic member 340 is unlikely to come off the receiving surface 331 even if a deviation occurs. Further, since the head elastic member 340 is only hung on the receiving surface 331 of the head protrusion 330 and is not fixed to the head protrusion 330, the plurality of core assemblies 100 and the hood housing 200 are still only in the depth direction. Relative movement is also possible along other directions. For this reason, the action of the elastic body-hanging divided connector C described above is reinforced.

本発明の弾性体掛け分割コネクタの脇弾性部材、頭弾性部材をそれぞれ独立した部材としてもよい。また、脇弾性部材はコアハウジング又は個別枠体の幅方向両側における周囲部の高さ方向の中途部に設けられておればよく、頭弾性部材はコアハウジング又は個別枠体の反実装側の端部に設けられておればよく、上記実施形態によってコアハウジング又は個別枠体への固定構造、取り付け構造が限定解釈されることはない。しかし、上記実施形態の弾性体掛け分割コネクタCの場合、二つの脇弾性部材320及び頭弾性部材340が、共に上記各コアハウジング110及びこれに対応する個別枠体211のうち一方の部材である個別枠体211に設けられており、二つの脇弾性部材320の反実装側の端部が頭弾性部材340の幅方向両側の端部にそれぞれ一体的に設けられており、上記一方の部材である個別枠体211の幅方向両側の端部には高さ方向に延びると共に幅方向外側に向かって開放され且つ高さ方向の一部が幅方向内側に開放された脇溝211dが設けられ、上記一方の部材である個別枠体211の反実装側の端部には幅方向に延びると共に反実装側に向かって開放され且つ幅方向の一部が高さ方向内側に開放された頭溝211eが設けられており、脇弾性部材320がその高さ方向の一部を上記一方の部材である個別枠体211の内側に出して脇溝211dに収容され、頭弾性部材340がその中途部を上記一方の部材である個別枠体211の内側に出して頭溝211eに収容されている。このようにすれば、二つの脇弾性部材320と頭弾性部材340が一体的に設けられるので、部品点数が減る。しかも、二つの脇弾性部材320と頭弾性部材340の個別枠体211への組み付けが1工程で済む。   The side elastic member and the head elastic member of the elastic body-hanging divided connector of the present invention may be independent members. Further, the side elastic member may be provided in the middle in the height direction of the peripheral portion on both sides in the width direction of the core housing or the individual frame body, and the head elastic member is the end of the core housing or individual frame body on the non-mounting side. The fixing structure and the attachment structure to the core housing or the individual frame body are not limitedly interpreted by the above embodiment. However, in the case of the elastic body-hanging divided connector C of the above embodiment, the two side elastic members 320 and the head elastic member 340 are both members of the core housing 110 and the individual frame body 211 corresponding thereto. Provided in the individual frame body 211, the end portions on the opposite side of the two side elastic members 320 are integrally provided at the end portions on both sides in the width direction of the head elastic member 340, and the one member Side grooves 211d that extend in the height direction and open toward the outside in the width direction and that part of the height direction is opened inward in the width direction are provided at the ends on both sides in the width direction of the individual frame body 211, A head groove 211e that extends in the width direction at the end of the individual frame 211, which is the one member, is open toward the anti-mounting side and a part of the width direction is opened inward in the height direction. Is provided The side elastic member 320 has a part in the height direction placed inside the individual frame 211 that is the one member and is accommodated in the side groove 211d, and the head elastic member 340 has the middle portion as the one member. It comes out inside the individual frame 211 and is accommodated in the head groove 211e. In this way, the two side elastic members 320 and the head elastic member 340 are integrally provided, so that the number of parts is reduced. In addition, the assembly of the two side elastic members 320 and the head elastic member 340 to the individual frame body 211 is completed in one step.

本発明の弾性体掛け分割コネクタは、ロック部材を備えていなくてもよい。しかし、上記実施形態の弾性体掛け分割コネクタCは、ロック部材211gを備えている。このようにすれば、頭弾性部材340の弾性復原力により各コアハウジング110とこれに対応する個別枠体211との間に作用する引き寄せ力が過大になり、各コアハウジング110の実装側の端部とこれに対応する個別枠体211の実装側の端部とが離間しようとしても、ロック部材211gのフックが他方の部材であるコアハウジング110の背面に掛かるので、このような動きが抑制される。   The elastic body division | segmentation connector of this invention does not need to be provided with the lock member. However, the elastic body-hanging split connector C of the above embodiment includes the lock member 211g. In this way, the pulling force acting between each core housing 110 and the corresponding individual frame 211 due to the elastic restoring force of the head elastic member 340 becomes excessive, and the end of each core housing 110 on the mounting side is increased. Since the hook of the lock member 211g is hooked on the back surface of the core housing 110, which is the other member, even if the portion and the end on the mounting side of the corresponding individual frame 211 are about to be separated from each other, such movement is suppressed. The

本発明の弾性体掛け分割コネクタのフードハウジングは、各部の剛性が均一であってもよく、上記実施形態によって本発明のフードハウジングの剛性配分が限定解釈されることはない。しかし、上記実施形態の弾性体掛け分割コネクタCの場合、フードハウジング200における個別枠体同士の境界付近の部分の剛性が、他の部分の剛性よりも低く設けられている。このようにすれば、低剛性の部位が変形することにより、各コアハウジング110及びこれに対応する個別枠体211において一方の周囲部であるコアハウジング110の周囲部111に他方の当て面である個別枠体211の当て面211cのうち、より多くの当て面211cが接触する。そのため、先に説明した弾性体掛け分割コネクタCの作用が補強される。   The rigidity of each part of the hood housing of the elastic body-hanging divided connector of the present invention may be uniform, and the rigidity distribution of the hood housing of the present invention is not limitedly interpreted by the above embodiment. However, in the case of the elastic body-hanging divided connector C of the above-described embodiment, the rigidity of the portion in the vicinity of the boundary between the individual frames in the hood housing 200 is provided lower than the rigidity of the other portions. In this way, the low rigidity portion is deformed, so that each core housing 110 and the individual frame body 211 corresponding thereto are the other contact surfaces on the peripheral portion 111 of the core housing 110 which is one peripheral portion. Of the contact surfaces 211c of the individual frame body 211, more contact surfaces 211c come into contact with each other. For this reason, the action of the elastic body-hanging divided connector C described above is reinforced.

本発明の弾性体掛け分割コネクタのコンタクトのリードはコアハウジングの実装側の端部付近に配置されておればよく、また本発明の弾性体掛け分割コネクタのフードハウジングは収納部を備えていなくてもよい。しかし、上記実施形態の弾性体掛け分割コネクタCの場合、一部のコンタクト120のリード123がコアハウジング110の実装側の端部付近よりも奥行き方向手前側に設けられており、フードハウジング200には奥行き方向奥側に向かって開放された収納部230が設けられ、この収納部230は、実装先部材700を受け入れると共に実装先部材700の実装面の裏面720に実装された他の実装部材が収納可能に設けられている。このようにすれば、実装先部材の端縁にコネクタを実装する場合に較べると、高さ方向からみた弾性体掛け分割コネクタC及び実装先部材700の専有面積が小さくなる。   The contact leads of the elastic body-split / divided connector of the present invention need only be arranged near the end of the core housing on the mounting side, and the hood housing of the elastic body-split / divided connector of the present invention does not have a storage portion. Also good. However, in the elastic body-divided split connector C of the above embodiment, the leads 123 of some of the contacts 120 are provided closer to the front side in the depth direction than the vicinity of the end of the core housing 110 on the mounting side. Is provided with a storage portion 230 that is open toward the back side in the depth direction. The storage portion 230 receives the mounting destination member 700 and other mounting members mounted on the back surface 720 of the mounting surface of the mounting destination member 700. It is provided so that it can be stored. In this way, the exclusive area of the elastic body-hanging divided connector C and the mounting member 700 as viewed from the height direction is smaller than when the connector is mounted on the edge of the mounting member.

本発明の弾性体掛け分割コネクタのコンタクトは、接続部がコアハウジングの奥行き方向手前側に配置され、リードがコアハウジングの実装側の端部付近に配置されるようにコアハウジングに設けられておればよい。しかし、上記実施形態の弾性体掛け分割コネクタCの場合、接続部122が反実装側寄りにあるコンタクト120では、接続部122とリード123との間の部分が、ほぼ高さ方向に沿って延びており、接続部122が実装側寄りにあるコンタクト120では、接続部122とリード123との間の部分が湾曲しており、リード123の先端が接続部122の先端よりも奥行き方向手前側になるように設けられている。このようにすれば、接続部122が反実装側寄りにあるコンタクト120では、接続部122が実装側寄りにあるコンタクト120よりも接続部122とリード123との間の部分の長さが高さ方向に沿って長くなるので、この部分の変形により、リード123と実装先部材700との間に形成されるハンダ付け部にかかる負荷が吸収され、ハンダ付け部にクラックが入りにくくなる。しかも、接続部122とリード123との間の部分が、ほぼ高さ方向に沿って延びているので、この部分を湾曲させた場合に較べると高さ方向からみたコンタクト120の専有面積が小さくなる。また、接続部122が実装側寄りにあるコンタクト120では、接続部122が反実装側寄りにあるコンタクト120よりも接続部122とリード123との高さ方向の距離が短いが、この間の部分が湾曲しているので、十分な長さが確保され、この部分の変形により、リード123と実装先部材700との間に形成されるハンダ付け部にかかる負荷が吸収され、ハンダ付け部にクラックが入りにくくなる。しかも、リード123の先端が接続部122の先端よりも奥行き方向手前側になるので、高さ方向からみたときにリード123のハンダ付け部が接続部先端によって隠れることがなく視認しやすい。   The contact of the elastic body-divided split connector of the present invention is provided on the core housing so that the connecting portion is disposed on the front side in the depth direction of the core housing and the lead is disposed near the end portion on the mounting side of the core housing. That's fine. However, in the case of the elastic body-divided split connector C according to the above-described embodiment, in the contact 120 in which the connection portion 122 is closer to the non-mounting side, the portion between the connection portion 122 and the lead 123 extends substantially along the height direction. In the contact 120 where the connecting portion 122 is closer to the mounting side, the portion between the connecting portion 122 and the lead 123 is curved, and the tip of the lead 123 is closer to the front side in the depth direction than the tip of the connecting portion 122. It is provided to become. In this way, in the contact 120 in which the connection part 122 is closer to the mounting side, the length of the portion between the connection part 122 and the lead 123 is higher than the contact 120 in which the connection part 122 is closer to the mounting side. Since the length becomes longer along the direction, the deformation of this portion absorbs the load applied to the soldering portion formed between the lead 123 and the mounting member 700, and the soldering portion is hardly cracked. In addition, since the portion between the connecting portion 122 and the lead 123 extends substantially along the height direction, the exclusive area of the contact 120 as viewed from the height direction is smaller than when the portion is curved. . Further, in the contact 120 in which the connection portion 122 is closer to the mounting side, the distance in the height direction between the connection portion 122 and the lead 123 is shorter than the contact 120 in which the connection portion 122 is closer to the non-mounting side. Since it is curved, a sufficient length is secured. Due to the deformation of this portion, a load applied to the soldering portion formed between the lead 123 and the mounting member 700 is absorbed, and a crack is generated in the soldering portion. It becomes difficult to enter. In addition, since the tip of the lead 123 is closer to the front side in the depth direction than the tip of the connecting portion 122, the soldered portion of the lead 123 is not hidden by the tip of the connecting portion when viewed from the height direction and is easily visible.

本発明の弾性体掛け分割コネクタは、補強タブを備えていなくてもよい。しかし、上記実施形態の弾性体掛け分割コネクタには、各コアハウジング110の幅方向両側の端部には、奥行き方向に延びる本体131と、この本体131の奥行き方向両側の端部の付近で実装側へ延びる二つのリード132と、本体131と各リード132との間に一体的に設けられ且つ本体131及びリード132の剛性よりも低い剛性の応力吸収部133とを備えた補強タブ130が設けられている。このようにすれば、応力吸収部133の変形により、弾性体掛け分割コネクタCが受ける応力が吸収される。   The elastic body division | segmentation connector of this invention does not need to be provided with the reinforcement tab. However, in the elastic body-hanging divided connector of the above-described embodiment, the main body 131 extending in the depth direction is mounted at the ends on both sides in the width direction of the core housing 110 and the end portions on both sides in the depth direction of the main body 131 are mounted. The reinforcing tab 130 is provided with two leads 132 extending to the side and a stress absorbing portion 133 that is integrally provided between the main body 131 and each lead 132 and has rigidity lower than that of the main body 131 and the lead 132. It has been. If it does in this way, the stress which elastic body hanging division connector C receives by the deformation of stress absorption part 133 will be absorbed.

本発明の弾性体掛け分割コネクタは、スリットリブ及び受け溝を有するリブ差し装置を備えていなくてもよい。しかし、上記実施形態の弾性体掛け分割コネクタCは、スリットリブ400及び受け溝500を備えている。このようにすれば、引き寄せ装置300により各コア組立体100とこれに対応する個別枠体211が引き寄せられると、ガイド装置600が作動し、各スリットリブ400の対応する受け溝500への高さ方向に沿った嵌入長さが長くなる。スリットリブ400は高さ方向に沿って受け溝500に嵌入するとスリット420が幅方向に狭まるように変形し、スリットリブ400にその可撓性から復原力が生じる。全てのスリットリブ400に生じる復原力の和が上記押し付け力と釣り合うと、各コア組立体100とこれに対応する個別枠体211との高さ方向の位置関係が確定する。また、複数のコア組立体100にフードハウジング200をあてがうと、各スリットリブ400はこれに対応する受け溝500へそれぞれ嵌入するが、リブ接触面410及び受け溝接触面510が高さ方向に沿って傾斜しているので、スリットリブ400が無理なく受け溝500へ案内されるという誘い込み機能が発揮され、スリットリブ400がスムーズに受け溝500に嵌入していく。   The elastic body division | segmentation connector of this invention does not need to be provided with the rib insertion apparatus which has a slit rib and a receiving groove. However, the elastic body-hanging divided connector C of the above embodiment includes the slit rib 400 and the receiving groove 500. In this way, when each core assembly 100 and the corresponding individual frame 211 are attracted by the attracting device 300, the guide device 600 is operated, and the height of each slit rib 400 to the corresponding receiving groove 500 is increased. The insertion length along the direction becomes longer. When the slit rib 400 is inserted into the receiving groove 500 along the height direction, the slit 420 is deformed so as to be narrowed in the width direction, and a restoring force is generated in the slit rib 400 due to its flexibility. When the sum of the restoring forces generated in all the slit ribs 400 is balanced with the pressing force, the positional relationship in the height direction between each core assembly 100 and the corresponding individual frame 211 is determined. In addition, when the hood housing 200 is applied to the plurality of core assemblies 100, each slit rib 400 is fitted into the corresponding receiving groove 500, but the rib contact surface 410 and the receiving groove contact surface 510 are along the height direction. Therefore, the guiding function that the slit rib 400 is guided to the receiving groove 500 without difficulty is exhibited, and the slit rib 400 smoothly fits into the receiving groove 500.

その場合、実装された複数のコア組立体100が正規の相対位置に配置されていると、各スリットリブ400の対応する受け溝500への高さ方向に沿った嵌入長さは全て同一になり、全てのスリットリブ400に生じる復原力が同一となり、フードハウジング200と複数のコア組立体100との高さ方向の相対位置は正規の相対位置になって確定する。一方、実装された複数のコア組立体100が正規の相対位置になく、互いに高さ方向に沿ってずれていたときは、図19の左側と右側に比較して示すように、各スリットリブ400の対応する受け溝500への高さ方向に沿った嵌入長さは同一でなくなり、スリットリブ400に生じる復原力は嵌入長さが長いほど大きくなる。そのため、フードハウジング200と複数のコア組立体100との高さ方向の相対位置は正規の相対位置からずれて確定する。   In this case, when the plurality of mounted core assemblies 100 are arranged at regular relative positions, the insertion lengths of the slit ribs 400 along the height direction into the corresponding receiving grooves 500 are all the same. The restoring force generated in all the slit ribs 400 becomes the same, and the relative position in the height direction between the hood housing 200 and the plurality of core assemblies 100 is determined to be a normal relative position. On the other hand, when the plurality of mounted core assemblies 100 are not in the normal relative positions and are displaced from each other along the height direction, as shown in comparison with the left side and the right side of FIG. The insertion length along the height direction of the corresponding receiving groove 500 is not the same, and the restoring force generated in the slit rib 400 increases as the insertion length increases. Therefore, the relative position in the height direction between the hood housing 200 and the plurality of core assemblies 100 is determined by deviating from the normal relative position.

また、実装された複数のコア組立体100が正規の相対位置になく、互いに幅方向に沿ってずれていたときは、スリットリブ400と受け溝500が幅方向にずれる。しかし、スリットリブ400にはスリット420が設けられているので、図20の左側と右側に比較して示すように、スリットリブ400は受け溝500のなかで先端が基端から幅方向にずれるように変形し、それぞれのスリットリブ400に幅方向に沿った復原力が生じ、これらが全てのコア組立体100の間で釣り合い、フードハウジング200と複数のコア組立体100との幅方向の相対位置は正規の相対位置からずれて確定する。   In addition, when the mounted core assemblies 100 are not in the normal relative positions and are displaced from each other along the width direction, the slit rib 400 and the receiving groove 500 are shifted in the width direction. However, since the slit rib 400 is provided with the slit 420, the slit rib 400 has a distal end shifted in the width direction from the base end in the receiving groove 500 as shown in comparison with the left side and the right side in FIG. Thus, a restoring force along the width direction is generated in each slit rib 400, and these are balanced among all the core assemblies 100, and the relative positions of the hood housing 200 and the plurality of core assemblies 100 in the width direction are balanced. Is determined by deviating from the normal relative position.

従って、実装先部材700に実装された複数のコア組立体100が正規の相対位置からずれ、互いに高さ方向、幅方向又はこれらを組み合わせた方向に沿ってずれていても、複数のコア組立体100に対するフードハウジング200の組み付け位置が容易に確定し、良好な組み付け作業性が得られる。よって、このリブ差し装置により、本発明の弾性体掛け分割コネクタにより行われる作用を補強することができる。   Therefore, even if the plurality of core assemblies 100 mounted on the mounting destination member 700 are displaced from the normal relative positions and are displaced from each other along the height direction, the width direction, or a combination thereof, the plurality of core assemblies 100 The assembly position of the hood housing 200 with respect to 100 is easily determined, and good assembly workability can be obtained. Therefore, this rib insertion device can reinforce the action performed by the elastic member-hanging connector of the present invention.

本発明の弾性体掛け分割コネクタのスリットリブ及び受け溝は奥行き方向に断面変化がなくてもよい。しかし、上記実施形態の弾性体掛け分割コネクタCのスリットリブ400は、それが設けられた部材である個別枠体211から奥行き方向に沿って離れるにつれて幅方向の寸法が小さくなるように幅方向両側に設けられたリブ接触面410が傾斜しており、本発明の弾性体掛け分割コネクタの受け溝500は、スリットリブ400が設けられた部材である個別枠体211に対向する側から奥行き方向に沿って反対側に向かうにつれて幅方向の寸法が小さくなるように幅方向両側に設けられた受け溝接触面510がリブ接触面410に対応して傾斜している。このようにすれば、各コア組立体100とこれに対応する個別枠体211では、引き寄せ力を受けて各スリットリブ400が対応する受け溝500の内方へ押し付けられ、この受け溝500への奥行き方向に沿った嵌入長さが長くなる。スリットリブ400は奥行き方向に沿って受け溝500に嵌入するとスリット420が幅方向に狭まるように変形し、スリットリブ400にその可撓性から復原力が生じる。全てのスリットリブ400に生じる復原力の和が上記押し付け力と釣り合うと、各コア組立体100とこれに対応する個別枠体211との奥行き方向の位置関係が確定する。また、リブ接触面410及び受け溝接触面510が奥行き方向に沿って傾斜しているので、このことによっても先に説明した誘い込み機能が向上し、スリットリブ400がさらにスムーズに受け溝500に嵌入していく。   The slit rib and the receiving groove of the elastic body-divided split connector of the present invention may not change in cross section in the depth direction. However, the slit rib 400 of the elastic body-divided split connector C of the above embodiment is arranged on both sides in the width direction so that the dimension in the width direction becomes smaller as the distance from the individual frame body 211 as a member along the depth direction increases. The rib contact surface 410 provided on the inclined surface is inclined, and the receiving groove 500 of the elastic body-hanging split connector of the present invention extends in the depth direction from the side facing the individual frame body 211 that is a member provided with the slit rib 400. The receiving groove contact surfaces 510 provided on both sides in the width direction are inclined so as to correspond to the rib contact surface 410 so that the dimension in the width direction becomes smaller along the opposite side. In this way, in each core assembly 100 and the corresponding individual frame 211 corresponding thereto, each slit rib 400 is pressed inward of the corresponding receiving groove 500 by receiving a drawing force, The insertion length along the depth direction becomes longer. When the slit rib 400 is fitted into the receiving groove 500 along the depth direction, the slit 420 is deformed so as to narrow in the width direction, and a restoring force is generated in the slit rib 400 due to its flexibility. When the sum of the restoring forces generated in all the slit ribs 400 is balanced with the pressing force, the positional relationship in the depth direction between each core assembly 100 and the corresponding individual frame 211 is determined. Further, since the rib contact surface 410 and the receiving groove contact surface 510 are inclined along the depth direction, this also improves the attraction function described above, and the slit rib 400 fits into the receiving groove 500 more smoothly. I will do it.

その場合、実装された複数のコア組立体100が正規の相対位置に配置されていると、各スリットリブ400の対応する受け溝500への奥行き方向に沿った嵌入長さは全て同一になり、全てのスリットリブ400に生じる復原力が同一となり、フードハウジング200と複数のコア組立体100との奥行き方向の相対位置は正規の相対位置になって確定する。一方、実装された複数のコア組立体100が正規の相対位置になく、互いに奥行き方向に沿ってずれていたときは、図22の左側と右側に比較して示すように、各スリットリブ400の対応する受け溝500への奥行き方向に沿った嵌入長さは同一でなくなり、スリットリブ400に生じる復原力は嵌入長さが長いほど大きくなる。そのため、フードハウジング200と複数のコア組立体100との奥行き方向の相対位置は正規の相対位置からずれて確定する。   In that case, when the mounted core assemblies 100 are arranged at regular relative positions, the insertion lengths of the slit ribs 400 along the depth direction into the corresponding receiving grooves 500 are all the same, The restoring force generated in all the slit ribs 400 becomes the same, and the relative position in the depth direction between the hood housing 200 and the plurality of core assemblies 100 is determined as a normal relative position. On the other hand, when the plurality of mounted core assemblies 100 are not in the normal relative positions and are shifted from each other along the depth direction, as shown in comparison with the left side and the right side of FIG. The insertion length along the depth direction in the corresponding receiving groove 500 is not the same, and the restoring force generated in the slit rib 400 increases as the insertion length increases. Therefore, the relative position in the depth direction between the hood housing 200 and the plurality of core assemblies 100 is determined by deviating from the normal relative position.

従って、実装先部材700に実装された複数のコア組立体100が正規の相対位置からずれ、互いに高さ方向、幅方向、奥行き方向又はこれらを合成した方向に沿ってずれていても、複数のコア組立体100に対するフードハウジング200の組み付け位置が容易に確定し、良好な組み付け作業性が得られる。よって、このリブ差し装置により、本発明の弾性体掛け分割コネクタにより行われる作用を補強することができる。   Therefore, even if the plurality of core assemblies 100 mounted on the mounting destination member 700 are displaced from the normal relative positions and are displaced from each other along the height direction, the width direction, the depth direction, or a direction in which these are combined, The assembly position of the hood housing 200 with respect to the core assembly 100 can be easily determined, and good assembly workability can be obtained. Therefore, this rib insertion device can reinforce the action performed by the elastic member-hanging connector of the present invention.

次に、図23ないし図26により第2の実施形態を説明する。第2実施形態の弾性体掛け分割コネクタCは、脇突起310及び頭突起330の形状が第1実施形態の弾性体掛け分割コネクタCと異なるが、それ以外の構成は同一である。従って、第1実施形態の弾性体掛け分割コネクタCと同一の機能を発揮する各部には第1実施形態で用いた符号と同一の符号を付して、その説明を省略する。第1実施形態の場合、各脇突起310の奥行き方向手前側にもガイド面312を形成したが、第2実施形態の弾性体掛け分割コネクタCの場合、このガイド面を形成せず、各脇突起310の頂面付近の奥行き方向の厚さを大きくとっており、各脇突起310の奥行き方向手前側の面はほぼ奥行き方向手前側に向いている。そのため、フードハウジング200を複数のコア組立体100に取り付ける場合、図24に示すように、脇弾性部材320及び頭弾性部材340をフードハウジング200に装着する前に、上記複数のコア組立体100の奥行き方向手前に位置づけたフードハウジング200を複数のコア組立体100に押し込む。そして、図25から図26へと示すように、脇弾性部材320及び頭弾性部材340をフードハウジング200に押し込むと、脇弾性部材320及び頭弾性部材340が図16から図17に示したときと同様に、幅方向外側及び反実装側にそれぞれ弾性変形して受け面311に掛かる。頭突起330も脇突起310と同様にガイド面を形成せず、各頭突起330の頂面付近の奥行き方向の厚さを大きくとっており、各脇突起310の奥行き方向手前側の面はほぼ奥行き方向手前側に向いている。   Next, a second embodiment will be described with reference to FIGS. The elastic body hanging / dividing connector C of the second embodiment is different from the elastic body hanging / dividing connector C of the first embodiment in the shapes of the side protrusions 310 and the head protrusions 330, but the other configurations are the same. Therefore, the same reference numerals as those used in the first embodiment are attached to the portions that exhibit the same functions as those of the elastic body-divided split connector C of the first embodiment, and the description thereof is omitted. In the case of the first embodiment, the guide surface 312 is also formed on the front side in the depth direction of each side protrusion 310. However, in the case of the elastic body-hanging divided connector C of the second embodiment, this guide surface is not formed. The thickness in the depth direction in the vicinity of the top surface of the protrusion 310 is increased, and the surface on the near side in the depth direction of each side protrusion 310 is substantially directed toward the near side in the depth direction. Therefore, when the hood housing 200 is attached to the plurality of core assemblies 100, before the side elastic member 320 and the head elastic member 340 are attached to the hood housing 200, as shown in FIG. The hood housing 200 positioned in front of the depth direction is pushed into the plurality of core assemblies 100. 25 to 26, when the side elastic member 320 and the head elastic member 340 are pushed into the hood housing 200, the side elastic member 320 and the head elastic member 340 are as shown in FIGS. Similarly, it is elastically deformed on the outer side in the width direction and on the non-mounting side, and is applied to the receiving surface 311. Similarly to the side protrusions 310, the head protrusions 330 do not form guide surfaces, and have a large thickness in the depth direction near the top surface of each head protrusion 330. The surface of each side protrusion 310 on the near side in the depth direction is almost the same. It faces the front side in the depth direction.

このようにすれば、フードハウジング200を複数のコア組立体100に取り付けるときに、複数のコア組立体100にフードハウジング200を押し込み、次いで脇弾性部材320及び頭弾性部材340のフードハウジング200に押し込むという二つの作業が必要となるが、脇突起310の脇弾性部材320に対するせん断強度が向上し、また頭突起330の頭弾性部材340に対するせん断強度が向上する。その他の作用及び効果は第1実施形態の弾性体掛け分割コネクタCで得られたものと同様である。   In this way, when the hood housing 200 is attached to the plurality of core assemblies 100, the hood housing 200 is pushed into the plurality of core assemblies 100, and then pushed into the hood housing 200 of the side elastic member 320 and the head elastic member 340. However, the shear strength of the side protrusion 310 with respect to the side elastic member 320 is improved, and the shear strength of the head protrusion 330 with respect to the head elastic member 340 is improved. Other operations and effects are the same as those obtained by the elastic body-hanging divided connector C of the first embodiment.

本発明は、以上の実施形態の特徴を組み合わせた実施形態を含んでいる。さらに、以上の実施形態は本発明の弾性体掛け分割コネクタのいくつかの例を示したに過ぎない。したがって、これらの実施形態の記載によって本発明の弾性体掛け分割コネクタが限定解釈されることはない。   The present invention includes an embodiment in which the features of the above embodiments are combined.
