Abstract
The present invention relates to a joint connector. Joint connector of the present invention is composed of a housing 10 and the bus bar terminal (26). The housing 10 has a seating space 12 in which the insertion hole 14 is formed to be opened to the end thereof is formed therein. Two seating slots 16 are formed side by side to the insertion hole 14 such that the seating space 12 communicates with the outside of the housing 10. As the seating slot 16 is formed up to the insertion hole 14, the coupling bar 18 is formed in the cantilever shape in the housing 10. The coupling bar 18 is made to have a thickness that is not elastic deformation. An opening piece 22 is formed at the tip of the coupling bar 18, and an elastic groove 20 is formed at the tip of the coupling bar 18 for elastic deformation of the opening piece 22. The opening piece 22 has a locking jaw 24 is formed to be in close contact with the bottom surface of the seating space 12. The locking jaw 24 allows the bus bar terminal 26 to be fixed inside the seating space 12. The bus bar terminal 26 has a terminal portion 30 extended to both sides in the longitudinal direction of the connecting portion 28, the terminal portion 30 is bent to be made so that the leading ends extend in the same direction next to each other. According to the present invention as described above there is an advantage that the manufacture of the bus bar terminal 26 is faster and the material is saved.
Description
The present invention relates to a connector, and more particularly to a connector having a joint terminal for electrically connecting between terminals provided inside the connector.
In general, the connector is composed of a connector housing and a terminal, and is widely used in power circuits such as washing machines, refrigerators, or automobiles. The use of the connector in these electrical and electronic devices can assemble a plurality of parts separately and then insert them into the final product, which has the advantage of greatly simplifying maintenance work as well as device manufacturing.
Such a connector is electrically connected between terminals provided between the two by connecting the mating connector. In this case, the connector may be provided with a plurality of terminals. In addition, the mating connector may be provided with a busbar type terminal for electrically connecting the plurality of terminals to each other. Such a connector is generally referred to as a joint connector.

However, the prior art as described above has the following problems.
The
In addition, the
Accordingly, an object of the present invention is to solve the conventional problems as described above, and to more quickly manufacture the bus bar terminal constituting the joint connector.
Another object of the present invention is not to leave a separate configuration for coupling to the housing in the bus bar terminal used in the joint connector.
According to a feature of the present invention for achieving the object as described above, the present invention is provided with a seating space having an insertion hole formed at one end therein and two seating slots extending side by side to the insertion hole in communication with the seating space and the outside. And a bus bar terminal formed of a plurality of terminal portions extending from each of the connecting portions seated in the seating space and the longitudinally extending ends of the connecting portions and being bent so that the tip portions extend side by side to pass through the seating slots. .
As the seating slot is formed to the insertion hole, a coupling bar is formed in the housing. An end of the coupling bar is provided with an elastic piece that is elastically deformed to enter and exit the bus bar terminal into and out of the seating space.
The elastic piece is made elastically deformable by forming an elastic groove at the tip of the coupling bar, and the locking jaw protrudes from the inner surface of the elastic piece to face the bottom surface of the seating space.
The locking jaw is formed in a plane in which the inner side facing the inside of the seating space is upright on the surface of the opening piece, so that the connection portion of the bus bar terminal is walked and the outer side facing the outside of the seating space is formed as an inclined surface or curved surface.
The length of the connection part is formed to be equal to the distance between the inside of the seating space and the locking step.
As the seating slot is formed to the insertion hole, a coupling bar is formed in the housing, and a hook bar that is elastically deformable is formed in a through groove passing through the housing in the seating space facing the coupling bar. Secure in the seating space.
A locking boss is formed in the coupling bar to protrude into the seating space, and a hook hole into which the locking boss is inserted is formed at the connection portion of the bus bar terminal.
The seating space is divided into two inside the housing, and each insertion hole is formed at both ends of the housing, and a bus bar terminal made separately is inserted into each seating space.
In the joint connector according to the present invention, the following effects can be obtained.
First, in the present invention, since the bus bar terminals constituting the joint connector are configured such that each terminal portion extends in the opposite direction to be perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the connecting portion, when using the same number of terminal portions, the bus bars The manufacturing of the terminal can be made relatively quickly, which has the effect of significantly lowering the manufacturing cost.
In addition, in the present invention, the length of the connecting part constituting the bus bar terminal is relatively short, and the connecting part also plays a role for coupling the bus bar terminal in the housing, thereby relatively minimizing the amount of material used to manufacture the bus bar terminal. There is also an effect that can be done.
