ホルダ４からその外周方向に向けて導出される。 An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. 1 is a connecting body made of insulating material that protrudes from the main body of an oil switch, for example, and its circular end face 1
A plurality of locking claws 2, in this case two locking claws 2, 2, each having a protruding claw portion 2a at the tip thereof, are integrally provided at the center of the locking member 2, and these can be expanded and contracted by elastic deformation. A ring-shaped connecting conductor 3 is provided on the end surface 1a so as to surround the lock claws 2, 2. Reference numeral 4 denotes a connection holder formed by integral molding of plastic, for example, which forms a lid 7 on a shallow case 5 via a connecting part 6, and has circular fitting holes 8 and 9 in the center of each. It is formed. Reference numeral 10 indicates two arc-shaped holes formed in the case 5 so as to sandwich the fitting hole 8 therebetween, reference numeral 11 indicates two presser convex portions protruding from the inner surface of the lid 7, and reference numeral 12 indicates a connecting portion 6 on the cover 7. A hook portion 13 is formed on the opposite side of the case 5, and 13 is a hook protruding from the outer surface of the case 5 so that the hook portion 12 can be engaged therewith. The provided lead wire lead-out portion 15 is a lead wire presser piece protruding from the lid 7 side so as to face the lead wire lead-out portion 15. Reference numeral 16 denotes a contact conductor formed of a metal plate, in which a through hole 17 corresponding to the fitting holes 8 and 9 is bored in the center, and contact pieces 18, 18 are cut and raised so as to sandwich the through hole 17 from both sides. The lead wire 20 is connected to the lead wire connection portion 19 by caulking. And contact conductor 1
6 is housed in the case 5 with the contact pieces 18, 18 passing through the holes 10, 10, and the lid 7 is closed with the lead wire connection part 19 fitted into the lead wire outlet part 14, and the hook part 12 is engaged with a hook 13. Thereby, the contact conductor 16 is held by the connection holder 4, and the lead wire 20 is led out from the connection holder 4 toward its outer circumference.

から引抜けば良い。 Next, the operation of the above configuration will be explained. When the fitting holes 8 and 9 of the connection holder 4 are aligned with the locking pawls 2 and 2 and pushed toward the connection body 1, the locking pawl 2 contracts in diameter and closes the fitting hole 8, the through hole 17, and the fitting hole 9. After successively passing through, the claw portion 2a finally engages with the periphery of the fitting hole 9, and the connection holder 4 can rotate around the connection body 1, and is locked in a state where it cannot be removed by expanding the locking claws 2, 2. In this state, the contact pieces 18, 18 passing through the holes 10, 10 come into contact with the connection conductor 3, and the contact conductor 16 and the connection conductor 3 are connected. Note that when removing the connection holder 4 from the connection body 1, for example, the claw portion 2
Hold lock claw 2 with a facing inward.
While reducing the diameter of the connecting holder 4, tighten the locking claws 2, 2.
Just pull it out.

上記構成では、接続ホルダ４の嵌合孔８，９を

で済むから、上記した方向性のないことと合わせ
て着脱作業が極めて簡単となる。 In the above configuration, when the fitting holes 8 and 9 of the connection holder 4 are fitted into the locking claws 2 and 2, the connection holder 4 may be oriented in any direction within 360 degrees, and therefore both can be easily connected even in a position where they cannot be seen visually. They can be fitted together, making the connection work easy, and the lead wires 20 can be led out in any direction. The work of attaching and removing the connection holder 4 to and from the connection body 1 is performed using the lock claw 2.
Since it only requires one touch to insert or pull out the part, combined with the fact that there is no directionality mentioned above, the attachment and detachment work is extremely easy.
