特開２００４−１４４０３９号公報JP 2004-144039 A

従来の電動式スロットル弁制御装置では，モータ端子と中継コネクタとがピニオンギヤの一側方で接続される。こうしたものでは，電動モータの高性能化に伴ない，モータ本体が小型化した電動モータを採用する場合には，モータ本体の端面より延出するモータ端子がピニオンギヤの側面に近接することから，そのモータ端子に中継コネクタを接続しようとすると，中継コネクタがピニオンギヤと干渉してしまい，その接続が不可となる。   In the conventional electric throttle valve control device, the motor terminal and the relay connector are connected on one side of the pinion gear. In such a case, when an electric motor with a miniaturized motor body is adopted as the performance of the electric motor increases, the motor terminal extending from the end surface of the motor body is close to the side surface of the pinion gear. If an attempt is made to connect a relay connector to the motor terminal, the relay connector interferes with the pinion gear, making the connection impossible.

本発明は，かゝる事情に鑑みてなされたもので，モータ本体が小型化した電動モータを採用する場合でも，ピニオンギヤに干渉されることなく，モータ端子及び中継コネクタの接続を容易に行い得るようにした前記電動式スロットル弁制御装置を提供することを目的とする。   The present invention has been made in view of such circumstances, and even when the motor body employs a miniaturized electric motor, the motor terminal and the relay connector can be easily connected without being interfered by the pinion gear. It is an object of the present invention to provide the electric throttle valve control device.

上記目的を達成するために，本発明は，吸気道を有するスロットルボディに，前記吸気道を開閉するスロットル弁の弁軸を回転可能に支承し，前記スロットルボディの一側に電動モータを，そのロータ軸を前記弁軸と平行にして配設し，この電動モータのロータ軸及び前記弁軸間を連結する減速機構が，前記ロータ軸に固設されるピニオンギヤと，前記弁軸に固設されて前記ピニオンギヤより駆動される出力ギヤとを備え，この減速機構を，前記スロットルボディとこれに接合されるカバーとの間に画成されるギヤ室に収容し，前記電動モータのモータ本体の前記ギヤ室に臨む端面に，前記ピニオンギヤと並ぶモータ端子を突設する一方，前記カバーには，給電用のカプラ端子と，このカプラ端子に連なり前記モータ端子が接続される中継コネクタとを設けてなる電動式スロットル弁制御装置において，前記モータ端子を，前記ピニオンギヤに隣接して配置すると共に，このモータ端子の先端部を前記ピニオンギヤより軸方向外方に延出させ，このモータ端子の先端部と接続される前記中継コネクタを前記ピニオンギヤの軸方向外方に配置したことを第１の特徴とする。   To achieve the above object, the present invention provides a throttle body having an intake passage rotatably supporting a valve shaft of a throttle valve that opens and closes the intake passage, and an electric motor is provided on one side of the throttle body. A rotor shaft is disposed in parallel with the valve shaft, and a speed reduction mechanism for connecting the rotor shaft of the electric motor and the valve shaft is fixed to the pinion gear fixed to the rotor shaft and the valve shaft. And an output gear driven by the pinion gear, and the speed reduction mechanism is housed in a gear chamber defined between the throttle body and a cover joined thereto, and the motor body of the electric motor A motor terminal aligned with the pinion gear protrudes from an end face facing the gear chamber, while a power supply coupler terminal is connected to the cover and a relay core connected to the coupler terminal and connected to the motor terminal. In the electric throttle valve control device provided with a motor, the motor terminal is disposed adjacent to the pinion gear, and the tip of the motor terminal is extended axially outward from the pinion gear. A first feature is that the relay connector connected to the tip of the terminal is arranged on the outside of the pinion gear in the axial direction.

また本発明は，第１の特徴に加えて，前記カバーに形成されて前記中継コネクタを保持するコネクタ保持部を，このコネクタ保持部と前記ピニオンギヤとが前記電動モータの軸方向視で重なるように配置したことを第２の特徴とする。   According to the present invention, in addition to the first feature, a connector holding portion that is formed on the cover and holds the relay connector is arranged so that the connector holding portion and the pinion gear overlap each other in the axial direction of the electric motor. The arrangement is a second feature.

本発明の第１の特徴によれば，モータ端子を，ピニオンギヤに隣接して配置すると共に，このモータ端子の先端部をピニオンギヤより軸方向外方に延出させ，このモータ端子の先端部と接続される中継コネクタをピニオンギヤの軸方向外方に配置したので，モータ端子をピニオンギヤに充分に近接させることが可能となり，これにより，モータ本体を小径化した電動モータを採用した場合でも，モータ本体の端面よりモータ端子を直線的に突出させて中継コネクタに容易に接続することができ，モータ端子の形状を単純化することができる。   According to the first aspect of the present invention, the motor terminal is disposed adjacent to the pinion gear, and the tip end portion of the motor terminal is extended axially outward from the pinion gear to be connected to the tip end portion of the motor terminal. Since the relay connector is arranged on the outside of the pinion gear in the axial direction, the motor terminal can be made sufficiently close to the pinion gear, so that even when an electric motor with a reduced motor diameter is adopted, The motor terminal can be projected straight from the end face and easily connected to the relay connector, and the shape of the motor terminal can be simplified.

本発明の第２の特徴によれば，カバーに形成されて中継コネクタを保持するコネクタ保持部を，このコネクタ保持部とピニオンギヤとが電動モータの軸方向視で重なるように配置したので，コネクタ保持部をピニオンギヤに干渉されることなく，相互に近接させることができ，これによってもモータ端子間に距離の短縮化を図ることができ，モータ本体の小径化に容易に対応することができると共に，カバーのコンパクト化にも寄与し得る。   According to the second feature of the present invention, the connector holding portion that is formed on the cover and holds the relay connector is arranged so that the connector holding portion and the pinion gear overlap each other when viewed in the axial direction of the electric motor. The parts can be brought close to each other without being interfered by the pinion gear, which can also reduce the distance between the motor terminals and can easily cope with the reduction in the diameter of the motor body. It can also contribute to downsizing of the cover.

本発明の実施形態を添付図面に基づいて以下に説明する。   Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

先ず，図１及び図２において，スロットルボディ１は，車両用エンジンの吸気ポートに連なる吸気道２を中心部に有し，この吸気道２を開閉するバタフライ型のスロットル弁３の弁軸３ａがスロットルボディ１に回転自在に支承される。   1 and 2, the throttle body 1 has an intake passage 2 connected to an intake port of a vehicle engine at the center, and a valve shaft 3a of a butterfly throttle valve 3 that opens and closes the intake passage 2 is provided. The throttle body 1 is rotatably supported.

またスロットルボディ１の一側に，弁軸３ａと平行な円筒状のモータ室５が形成され，このモータ室５に電動モータ６が収容される。この電動モータ６は，円筒状のモータ本体７と，このモータ本体７の一端面に固着される取り付けフランジ８と，モータ本体７に回転自在に支持されてその一端面より突出するロータ軸９とを備えており，そのロータ軸９を弁軸３ａと平行にして電動モータ６は配置される。そして取り付けフランジ８は，スロットルボディ１にボルト１０で締結される。   A cylindrical motor chamber 5 parallel to the valve shaft 3 a is formed on one side of the throttle body 1, and the electric motor 6 is accommodated in the motor chamber 5. The electric motor 6 includes a cylindrical motor body 7, a mounting flange 8 fixed to one end surface of the motor body 7, a rotor shaft 9 that is rotatably supported by the motor body 7 and protrudes from the one end surface. The electric motor 6 is arranged with the rotor shaft 9 parallel to the valve shaft 3a. The mounting flange 8 is fastened to the throttle body 1 with bolts 10.

スロットルボディ１と，その一側面に接合され，ボルト１１で締結されるカバー１２との間に，モータ室５と連通するギヤ室１３が画成され，このギヤ室１３に，電動モータ６のロータ軸９及び弁軸３ａ間を連結する減速機構１４が収容される。この減速機構１４は，ロータ軸９の端部に固着されるピニオンギヤ１５と，このピニオンギヤ１５に噛合する，ピニオンギヤ１５よりも大径の第１中間ギヤ１６と，この第１中間ギヤ１６と一体化された，第１中間ギヤ１６より小径の第２中間ギヤ１７と，弁軸３ａの外端部に固着されて第２中間ギヤ１７に噛合する，第２中間ギヤ１７よりも大径の出力ギヤ１８とよりなっており，第１及び第２中間ギヤ１６，１７は，スロットルボディ１及びカバー１２に両端部を支持される中間軸１９に回転自在に支承される。   A gear chamber 13 communicating with the motor chamber 5 is defined between the throttle body 1 and a cover 12 joined to one side surface thereof and fastened by a bolt 11. The gear chamber 13 includes a rotor of the electric motor 6. A speed reduction mechanism 14 for connecting the shaft 9 and the valve shaft 3a is accommodated. The speed reduction mechanism 14 is integrated with a pinion gear 15 fixed to the end of the rotor shaft 9, a first intermediate gear 16 having a larger diameter than the pinion gear 15 meshing with the pinion gear 15, and the first intermediate gear 16. The second intermediate gear 17 having a smaller diameter than the first intermediate gear 16 and the output gear having a larger diameter than the second intermediate gear 17 are fixed to the outer end of the valve shaft 3a and meshed with the second intermediate gear 17. The first and second intermediate gears 16 and 17 are rotatably supported by an intermediate shaft 19 supported at both ends by the throttle body 1 and the cover 12.

モータ本体７の一端面からは，取り付けフランジ８を貫通する一対のモータ端子２０が突出しており，これらモータ端子２０は，取り付けフランジ８を貫通した後，ピニオンギヤ１５の両側を通ってその軸方向外方まで延びている。   A pair of motor terminals 20 that pass through the mounting flange 8 protrude from one end surface of the motor body 7, and these motor terminals 20 pass through the mounting flange 8, pass through both sides of the pinion gear 15, and move outside in the axial direction. It extends to the direction.

図１〜図３に示すように，一方，カバー１２の外側面にはカプラ２２が，またその内側面には一対のコネクタ保持部２３がそれぞれ一体に形成され，これらカプラ２２及びコネクタ保持部２３間にわたって延びる一対のリードフレーム２４がカバー１２に埋設され，これらリードフレーム２４の一端部は，カプラ端子２５となってカプラ２２に保持される。   As shown in FIGS. 1 to 3, on the other hand, a coupler 22 is integrally formed on the outer surface of the cover 12, and a pair of connector holding portions 23 are integrally formed on the inner surface thereof. A pair of lead frames 24 extending between them are embedded in the cover 12, and one end portions of these lead frames 24 become coupler terminals 25 and are held by the coupler 22.

一対のコネクタ保持部２３は，前記ピニオンギヤ１５の軸線を挟むと共に，電動モータ６の軸方向視でピニオンギヤ１５と重なるよう，ピニオンギヤ１５の軸方向外端面に近接して配置される。コネクタ保持部２３にはコネクタ保持孔２７が設けられており，これらコネクタ保持孔２７の各一側面に沿って前記リードフレーム２４の他端部が配置される。またコネクタ保持孔２７には，リードフレーム２４に密着する中継コネクタ２８が装着される。各中継コネクタ２８は，リードフレーム２４に密着する第１側片２９と，この第１側片２９の内端に連なっていてコネクタ保持孔２７の他側面に密着する第２側片３０と，この第２側片３０の外端よりコネクタ保持孔２７の内部に向かって屈曲しながら第１側片２９に弾性的に密接する接片３１とよりなっている。リードフレーム２４及び第１側片２９の外端部は，対応するコネクタ保持部２３の端面に重なる屈曲部２４ａ，２９ａとなっており，これら屈曲部２４ａ，２９ａは，それらを貫通するコネクタ保持部２３の突起３２をかしめることによりコネクタ保持部２３に固着される。   The pair of connector holding portions 23 are disposed close to the outer end surface of the pinion gear 15 in the axial direction so as to sandwich the axis of the pinion gear 15 and overlap the pinion gear 15 as viewed in the axial direction of the electric motor 6. The connector holding portion 23 is provided with a connector holding hole 27, and the other end portion of the lead frame 24 is disposed along one side surface of the connector holding hole 27. A relay connector 28 that is in close contact with the lead frame 24 is attached to the connector holding hole 27. Each relay connector 28 includes a first side piece 29 that is in close contact with the lead frame 24, a second side piece 30 that is connected to the inner end of the first side piece 29 and is in close contact with the other side of the connector holding hole 27, and The contact piece 31 is elastically intimately contacted with the first side piece 29 while being bent from the outer end of the second side piece 30 toward the inside of the connector holding hole 27. The outer ends of the lead frame 24 and the first side piece 29 are bent portions 24a and 29a that overlap the end surfaces of the corresponding connector holding portions 23, and these bent portions 24a and 29a are connector holding portions that pass through them. The protrusions 32 are caulked to be secured to the connector holding portion 23.

中継コネクタ２８において，第１側片２９と接片３１との間には，前記モータ端子２０の先端部が挿入される。こうして，モータ端子２０は，第１側片２９と接片３１とにより挟持される。   In the relay connector 28, the tip of the motor terminal 20 is inserted between the first side piece 29 and the contact piece 31. Thus, the motor terminal 20 is sandwiched between the first side piece 29 and the contact piece 31.

またカバー１２には，弁軸３ａに連結されてスロットル弁３の開度を検出するスロットルセンサ３３が取り付けられる。   In addition, a throttle sensor 33 that is connected to the valve shaft 3 a and detects the opening degree of the throttle valve 3 is attached to the cover 12.

次に，この実施形態の作用について説明する。   Next, the operation of this embodiment will be described.

カバー１２をスロットルボディ１に接合する際，モータ端子２０は中継コネクタ２８の第１側片２９及び接片３１間に挿入され，これによりカプラ端子２５及びモータ端子２０は相互に電気的に接続される。而して，図示しない電子制御ユニットは，車両のアクセル操作部材の開度とスロットル弁３の開度とがバランスするように，電動モータ６の通電を制御する。その際，電動モータ６の出力は，ピニオンギヤ１５及び第１中間ギヤ１６と，第２中間ギヤ１７及び出力ギヤ１８とにより２段階減速されて弁軸３ａに伝達され，スロットル弁３をきめ細かく開閉制御する。   When the cover 12 is joined to the throttle body 1, the motor terminal 20 is inserted between the first side piece 29 and the contact piece 31 of the relay connector 28, whereby the coupler terminal 25 and the motor terminal 20 are electrically connected to each other. The Thus, an electronic control unit (not shown) controls the energization of the electric motor 6 so that the opening degree of the accelerator operation member of the vehicle and the opening degree of the throttle valve 3 are balanced. At that time, the output of the electric motor 6 is decelerated in two stages by the pinion gear 15 and the first intermediate gear 16, and the second intermediate gear 17 and the output gear 18, and is transmitted to the valve shaft 3a. To do.

ところで，一対のモータ端子２０は，ピニオンギヤ１５の両側方を通ってその軸方向外方まで延出され，これらモータ端子２０の先端部と接続される中継コネクタ２８も，ピニオンギヤ１５の軸方向外方に配置されるので，一対のモータ端子２０をピニオンギヤ１５に充分に近接させて両モータ端子２０間の距離を縮めることが可能となる。したがって，モータ本体７を小径化した電動モータ６を採用した場合でも，モータ本体７の端面よりモータ端子２０を直線的に突出させて中継コネクタ２８に接続することができ，モータ端子２０の形状を単純化することができる。   By the way, the pair of motor terminals 20 are extended to the outside in the axial direction through the both sides of the pinion gear 15, and the relay connector 28 connected to the tip of these motor terminals 20 is also outward in the axial direction of the pinion gear 15. Therefore, the distance between the motor terminals 20 can be reduced by making the pair of motor terminals 20 sufficiently close to the pinion gear 15. Therefore, even when the electric motor 6 with the motor body 7 having a reduced diameter is employed, the motor terminal 20 can be linearly projected from the end surface of the motor body 7 and connected to the relay connector 28. It can be simplified.

またカバー１２に形成されて一対の中継コネクタ２８を保持する一対のコネクタ保持部２３は，これらコネクタ保持部２３とピニオンギヤ１５とが電動モータ６の軸方向視で重なるように配置されるので，一対のコネクタ保持部２３をピニオンギヤ１５に干渉されることなく，相互に近接させることができ，これによっても両モータ端子２０間に距離の短縮化を図ることができ，モータ本体７の小径化に容易に対応することができると共に，カバー１２のコンパクト化にも寄与し得る。   Further, the pair of connector holding portions 23 formed on the cover 12 and holding the pair of relay connectors 28 are arranged so that the connector holding portion 23 and the pinion gear 15 overlap with each other when viewed in the axial direction of the electric motor 6. The connector holding portion 23 can be brought close to each other without being interfered by the pinion gear 15, which can also reduce the distance between the motor terminals 20 and facilitate the reduction of the diameter of the motor body 7. And can contribute to making the cover 12 compact.

またコネクタ保持部２３がピニオンギヤ１５の上方の広いスペースに配設されることから，各コネクタ保持部２３を充分に大きく形成して，そのコネクタ保持孔２７に所望の大きさの中継コネクタ２８の収容を可能にし，これにより中継コネクタ２８には，モータ端子２０との適正な接触圧力を容易に付与することができる。   Further, since the connector holding portions 23 are arranged in a wide space above the pinion gear 15, each connector holding portion 23 is formed to be sufficiently large so that a relay connector 28 having a desired size can be accommodated in the connector holding hole 27. Accordingly, an appropriate contact pressure with the motor terminal 20 can be easily applied to the relay connector 28.

さらに中継コネクタ２８がピニオンギヤ１５の上方に配置されることで，一対のモータ端子２０間距離に余裕が生じ，その分，ピニオンギヤ１５を大径に形成すると共に，そのモジュールを大きく設定することにより，所定の減速比を変えることなく，ピニオンギヤ１５の歯の強度を増強させることができる。   Further, since the relay connector 28 is arranged above the pinion gear 15, there is a margin in the distance between the pair of motor terminals 20, and the pinion gear 15 is formed to have a large diameter, and the module is set large. The strength of the teeth of the pinion gear 15 can be increased without changing the predetermined reduction ratio.

本発明は上記実施例に限定されるものではなく，その要旨を逸脱しない範囲で種々の設計変更が可能である。例えば，減速機構１４の減速段数は任意である。   The present invention is not limited to the above embodiment, and various design changes can be made without departing from the scope of the invention. For example, the number of deceleration stages of the deceleration mechanism 14 is arbitrary.
