雄型接続具１，雄側の接続半部２と雌型接続具３，雌側の接続半部４とが差込み嵌合されると、雄型接続具１のピン部１１が雌型接続具３のテーパ筒部３１に案内されて円滑に雌型接続具３の直筒部３２に挿通嵌合されて確実に電気的な接続が実現される。そして、雄側の接続半部２のネジ筒２２の係合溝２２ｇと雌側の接続半部４のモールド部４１の係合突起４１ｄとが係合されて回止めのように機能し、雄型接続具１，雌型接続具３に接触不良を引起こすような回転，捻れの応力が掛かるのを防止する。   When the male connector 1, the male connection half 2 and the female connector 3, the female connection half 4 are inserted and fitted, the pin 11 of the male connector 1 becomes the female connector. 3 is smoothly inserted into and fitted into the straight tube portion 32 of the female connector 3 by being guided by the three tapered tube portions 31, and electrical connection is reliably realized. Then, the engagement groove 22g of the screw cylinder 22 of the male connection half 2 and the engagement protrusion 41d of the mold part 41 of the female connection half 4 are engaged to function as a rotation stop. This prevents the rotation of the mold connector 1 and the female connector 3 from being subjected to rotation or twisting stress that causes contact failure.

雄型接続具１，雄側の接続半部２と雌型接続具３，雌側の接続半部４との差込み嵌合の際には、雌型接続具３のテーパ筒部３１の先端部と雌側の接続半部４のモールド部４１の嵌合部４１ａの先端部とがシート材６を圧縮させるため、雄型接続具１，雌型接続具３の間に高度の防水性が確保される。また、締付具５の雄ネジ５１がネジ噛合の広い面積で雄側の接続半部２のネジ筒２２の雌ネジ２２ｆに螺合され、締付具５の全体が雌側の接続半部４のカバー筒４２に圧入嵌合されるため、雄側の接続半部２，雌側の接続半部４の間に高度の防水性が確保される。特に、弾性を有する雄側の接続半部２のモールド部２１と雌側の接続半部４のモールド部４１に対して、締付具５や雄側の接続半部２のネジ筒２２やの側の接続半部４のカバー筒４２が無用の変形，歪み等を発生させない硬質材とされ、締付具５の締付力が弾性によって減殺されないため、雄側の接続半部２と雌側の接続半部４とを緊密に連結することができる。なお、締付具５のナット５２と雄側の接続半部２のネジ筒２２との当接面を平坦に形成しメタルタッチさせることで、雄側の接続半部２，雌側の接続半部４の間の防水性をより高めることができる。   When the male connector 1, the male connection half 2 and the female connector 3, the female connection half 4 are inserted and fitted, the tip of the tapered cylindrical portion 31 of the female connector 3 is inserted. Since the sheet material 6 is compressed by the distal end portion of the fitting portion 41a of the mold portion 41 of the female connection half 4 and a high degree of waterproofness is ensured between the male connector 1 and the female connector 3. Is done. Further, the male screw 51 of the fastener 5 is screwed into the female screw 22f of the screw cylinder 22 of the male connection half 2 over a wide area of screw engagement, and the entire fastener 5 is entirely connected to the female connection half. Therefore, a high degree of waterproofness is ensured between the male connection half 2 and the female connection half 4. In particular, with respect to the mold part 21 of the male connection half 2 and the mold part 41 of the female connection half 4 having elasticity, the fastener 5 and the screw cylinder 22 of the male connection half 2 Since the cover cylinder 42 of the connection half 4 on the side is made of a hard material that does not cause unnecessary deformation, distortion, etc., and the fastening force of the fastener 5 is not reduced by elasticity, the male connection half 2 and the female side The connection halves 4 can be tightly coupled. In addition, the contact surface of the nut 52 of the fastener 5 and the screw cylinder 22 of the male connection half 2 is formed flat and metal-touched, thereby connecting the male connection half 2 and the female connection half. The waterproofness between the parts 4 can be further increased.

さらに、この形態では、雄型接続具１から水中ケーブルＣへの接続部分および雌型接続具３から水中ケーブルＣへの接続部分が精密に雄側の接続半部２のモールド部２１と雌側の接続半部４のモールド部４１とで覆われるため、雄側の接続半部２と水中ケーブルＣとの間および雌側の接続半部４と水中ケーブルＣとの防水性能が高くなる。   Furthermore, in this embodiment, the connecting portion from the male connector 1 to the underwater cable C and the connecting portion from the female connector 3 to the underwater cable C are precisely the mold portion 21 and the female side of the male connection half 2. Therefore, the waterproof performance between the male connection half 2 and the underwater cable C and between the female connection half 4 and the underwater cable C is improved.

この形態を使用するには、例えば、図４に示すように、集魚灯等の端末機器Ｌの近くの水中ケーブルＣの中途部に設ける。この使用例によると、水中ケーブルＣに掛かる各種の応力を雄側の接続半部２のモールド部２１と雌側の接続半部４のモールド部４１との弾性で吸収することができるため、雄型接続具１，雌型接続具３の接続が確実に保持されるとともに、雄型接続具１，雌型接続具３と水中ケーブルＣとの接続部分が損傷することもない。特に、集魚灯等の端末機器Ｌ側に位置して水中ケーブルＣに各種の応力が掛かりやすい雄側の接続半部２の雄型接続具１と水中ケーブルＣとの接続部分がネジ筒２２の保護筒部２２ａで保護されているため、雄型接続具１と水中ケーブルＣとの接続部分の損傷が確実に防止される。   In order to use this form, for example, as shown in FIG. 4, it is provided in the middle of the underwater cable C near the terminal device L such as a fishing light. According to this use example, various stresses applied to the underwater cable C can be absorbed by the elasticity of the mold part 21 of the male connection half 2 and the mold part 41 of the female connection half 4. The connection between the mold connector 1 and the female connector 3 is securely held, and the connection portion between the male connector 1 and the female connector 3 and the underwater cable C is not damaged. In particular, the connecting portion between the male connector 1 of the male connection half 2 and the underwater cable C, which is located on the terminal device L side such as a fish collection lamp and is susceptible to various stresses on the underwater cable C, is the screw tube 22 Since it is protected by the protective cylinder portion 22a, damage to the connecting portion between the male connector 1 and the underwater cable C is reliably prevented.

また、図５に示すように、雄側の接続半部２を集魚灯等の端末機器Ｌの内部に埋込み固定して使用することもできる。この使用例によると、雄側の接続半部２が集魚灯等の端末機器Ｌと一体化されるため、集魚灯等の端末機器Ｌ側の水中ケーブルＣの露出が避けられて損傷が低減される。また、この使用例を採る場合、雄側の接続半部２のモールド部２１を集魚灯等の端末機器Ｌの一部に一体的にモールドさせることで、雄側の接続半部２とモールド部２１を共有して集魚灯等の端末機器Ｌに完全に一体化させ、雄側の接続半部２と集魚灯等の端末機器Ｌとの固定強度を強固にすることができる。   In addition, as shown in FIG. 5, the male connection half 2 can be used by being embedded and fixed inside a terminal device L such as a fish collection lamp. According to this use example, since the male connection half 2 is integrated with a terminal device L such as a fish collection lamp, exposure of the underwater cable C on the terminal device L side such as a fish collection lamp is avoided and damage is reduced. The Moreover, when taking this usage example, the molding part 21 of the male connection half 2 is molded integrally with a part of the terminal device L such as a fish lamp so that the male connection half 2 and the molding part are molded. 21 can be shared and completely integrated with a terminal device L such as a fishlight, and the fixing strength between the male connection half 2 and the terminal device L such as a fishlight can be strengthened.

以上、図示した形態の外に、雄側，雌側を逆の構成とすることも可能である。   As described above, the male side and the female side can be reversed in addition to the illustrated embodiment.

さらに、雄型接続具１，雌型接続具３を挿通嵌合以外の接続構造とすることも可能である。   Further, the male connector 1 and the female connector 3 can be configured to have a connection structure other than insertion fitting.

さらに、雄側の接続半部２と雌側の接続半部４との間の適当箇所にＯリング等のパッキンを介在させることも可能である。   It is also possible to interpose a packing such as an O-ring at an appropriate location between the male connection half 2 and the female connection half 4.
