FIG. 9 is a B-B cross-sectional view of FIG. 8 , and FIG. 10 is a C-C cross-sectional view of FIG. 8 .

操作桿21，具有沿著第1殼體20之形狀的帶狀，用來維持插頭連接器2與插座連接器3的嵌合狀態。如圖3、圖5、圖7所示，位在「維持嵌合狀態之位置」的操作桿21，是「從第1殼體20其中一個側面，通過正面而連接至另一個側面」之帶狀的構件，具有略呈U字型的形狀。在操作桿21的左右側面，設有「形成有軸孔的軸承部21a」(請參考圖3、圖4、圖10)，藉由使轉動軸20a穿過該軸孔，將操作桿21轉動支承成可相對於第1殼體20轉動。操作桿21，可繞著轉動軸20a轉動特定角度(譬如：90度)。操作桿21，可從維持圖3所示之嵌合狀態的位置(以下，也稱為「第1位置」)，朝已解除嵌合狀態的位置(以下，也稱為「第2位置」)轉動，相反地，如圖4所示，也能從第2位置朝第1位置轉動。亦即，操作桿21具有：包含第1位置與第2位置的轉動軌道。The operating lever 21 has a strip shape along the shape of the first housing 20 and is used to maintain the mating state of the plug connector 2 and the receptacle connector 3 . As shown in Figures 3, 5, and 7, the operating lever 21 in the "position maintaining the mated state" is a belt that "connects from one side of the first housing 20 through the front to the other side." It is a member with a slightly U-shaped shape. On the left and right sides of the operating lever 21, there is a "bearing part 21a formed with a shaft hole" (please refer to Figures 3, 4, and 10). The operating lever 21 is rotated by passing the rotation shaft 20a through the shaft hole. It is supported rotatably relative to the first housing 20 . The operating lever 21 can rotate at a specific angle (for example, 90 degrees) around the rotation axis 20a. The operating lever 21 can move from the position where the fitting state is maintained as shown in FIG. 3 (hereinafter also referred to as the "first position") to the position where the fitting state is released (hereinafter also referred to as the "second position") Rotation, conversely, as shown in Figure 4, can also rotate from the second position toward the first position. That is, the operating lever 21 has a rotation track including the first position and the second position.

如圖4及圖10所示，操作桿21具有卡止部21b。該卡止部21b，是保持間隙設於左右軸承部21a下方的臂狀的部分，當操作桿21已下降時，卡止於插座連接器3所具有的卡止部32。亦即，插座連接器3具有第2殼體30，且如圖3、圖7所示，第2殼體30具有：豎立設置在較「位於第1位置的操作桿21」更外側(在本例中為左右)之對向位置的一對支承部31。在各支承部31的前端部設有：朝內側突出，亦即朝呈現嵌合狀態的第1殼體20側突出的被卡止部32(請參考圖4、圖10)。因此，左右之各自的支承部31與被卡止部32的整體，成為L字型的形狀。一旦操作桿21下降，卡止部21b將進入被卡止部32的下方。換言之，被卡止部32進入軸承部21a與卡止部21b之間的間隙，形成插頭連接器2鎖定於插座連接器3的狀態，成為「維持嵌合狀態」的狀態(請參考圖3、圖10)。成為該狀態的位置，為第1位置。另外，一旦操作桿21上升特定角度，卡止部21b與被卡止部32之間的卡止關係便受到解除，成為「已解除嵌合狀態」的狀態(請參考圖4)。成為該狀態的位置，為第2位置。嵌合狀態受到解除，是由於以圖3所示的軸承部21a、與位於該軸承部21a下方且上部呈現錐狀的支承部31，構成凸輪機構。亦即，是因為利用操作桿21的轉動，使軸承部21a滑動於支承部31的上部而被頂起。亦可在卡止部21b設有朝軸承部21a側突出的突起210，該突起在由被卡止部32所卡止之後，勾掛於被卡止部32的邊緣，而強化操作桿21的鎖定狀態。As shown in FIGS. 4 and 10 , the operation lever 21 has a locking portion 21 b. The locking portion 21b is an arm-shaped portion provided below the left and right bearing portions 21a to maintain a gap, and is locked to the locking portion 32 of the socket connector 3 when the operation lever 21 has been lowered. That is, the receptacle connector 3 has the second housing 30, and as shown in FIGS. 3 and 7 , the second housing 30 has: an upright position outside the "operating lever 21 located at the first position" (in this article In this example, it is a pair of supporting parts 31 at opposite positions (left and right). The front end of each support portion 31 is provided with a locked portion 32 protruding inwardly, that is, protruding toward the first housing 20 side in the fitted state (please refer to FIGS. 4 and 10 ). Therefore, the entire supporting portion 31 and the locked portion 32 on the left and right sides have an L-shaped shape. Once the operation lever 21 is lowered, the locking portion 21b will move under the locked portion 32 . In other words, the locked portion 32 enters the gap between the bearing portion 21a and the locking portion 21b, so that the plug connector 2 is locked to the receptacle connector 3, and the "fitted state is maintained" (please refer to FIG. 3, Figure 10). The position in this state is the first position. In addition, once the operating lever 21 rises by a specific angle, the locking relationship between the locking portion 21b and the locked portion 32 is released, and the state becomes a "released fitting state" (please refer to FIG. 4). The position in this state is the second position. The fitting state is released because the bearing portion 21a shown in FIG. 3 and the support portion 31 located below the bearing portion 21a and having a tapered upper portion form a cam mechanism. That is, the rotation of the operation lever 21 causes the bearing part 21a to slide on the upper part of the support part 31 and be lifted up. The locking part 21b may also be provided with a protrusion 210 protruding toward the bearing part 21a side. After being locked by the locked part 32, the protrusion is hooked on the edge of the locked part 32 to strengthen the operating lever 21. Locked status.

如圖3所示，在操作桿21設有：在其前面部分具有彈性，且朝內側突出的爪部21c，當操作桿21下降至下方時，亦即位於第1位置時，勾掛在設於第1殼體20之前表面的突起20b，而對操作桿21的鎖定形成輔助。As shown in Figure 3, the operating lever 21 is provided with a claw portion 21c that is elastic in its front portion and protrudes inward. When the operating lever 21 is lowered downward, that is, when it is in the first position, it is hooked on the device. The protrusion 20b on the front surface of the first housing 20 assists in locking the operating lever 21.

插座連接器3的第2殼體30，譬如為壓鑄(die casting)件，且包含以下構件所構成：嵌合部，在內部收容端子；及凸緣部30a，朝直角地交會於插頭連接器2之嵌合方向(圖3中下方的方向)的方向(對安裝面呈現水平)伸出，形成插頭連接器2與插座連接器3間之嵌合側的對接面(abutting surface)。凸緣部30a固定於：設置有插座連接器3的裝置之框體的安裝面。在本實施形態中，支承部31，採從凸緣部30a朝上方突出的方式設置(請參考圖3)，由於凸緣部30a受到固定，因此支承部31也獨立於操作桿21的轉動之外而受到固定。支承部31形成板狀，其前端部形成錐狀(請參考圖3、圖9)。The second housing 30 of the receptacle connector 3 is, for example, a die casting, and is composed of the following components: a fitting portion that accommodates terminals inside; and a flange portion 30a that intersects the plug connector at a right angle. 2 protrudes in the direction of the mating direction (the downward direction in FIG. 3 ) (horizontal to the mounting surface), forming an abutting surface on the mating side between the plug connector 2 and the socket connector 3 . The flange portion 30a is fixed to the mounting surface of the frame of the device on which the socket connector 3 is installed. In this embodiment, the support portion 31 is provided to protrude upward from the flange portion 30a (please refer to FIG. 3). Since the flange portion 30a is fixed, the support portion 31 is also independent of the rotation of the operating lever 21. Externally and fixed. The support part 31 is formed in a plate shape, and the front end part is formed in a tapered shape (please refer to FIG. 3 and FIG. 9).

The hook portion 11a is configured to enter the gap between the operating lever 21 in the first position and the second housing 30 when the restricting member 1 is mounted on the connector device (see FIG. 12 ). The inner surface of the cover 11 referred to here is the surface facing the "front surface of the operating lever 21 located in the first position" when the restricting member 1 is mounted on the connector device.

此外，在蓋部11的內面設有凸部11b，當已將限制構件1安裝於連接器裝置時，凸部11b抵接於「設在操作桿21的前表面」的爪部21c，限制彈性變形。In addition, a convex part 11b is provided on the inner surface of the cover part 11. When the restricting member 1 is installed on the connector device, the convex part 11b comes into contact with the claw part 21c "provided on the front surface of the operating lever 21" to restrict Elastic deformation.

一對臂部12，設成連結於蓋部11，並卡止在「獨立於操作桿21的轉動之外而形成固定」的一對支承部31。具體地說，在本實施形態中，如圖1、圖2所示，一對臂部12具有：一對第1臂121、一對第2臂122。一對第1臂121，與蓋部11的兩端連結，並且設成在「與蓋部11直交的方向」上筆直地延伸。具體地說，其中一個第1臂121，從蓋部11的其中一端形成彎曲，並且設成在「與蓋部11直交的方向」上筆直地延伸，另一個第1臂121，從蓋部11的另一端形成彎曲，並且設成在「與蓋部11直交的方向」上筆直地延伸。因此，一對第1臂121彼此平行。The pair of arm portions 12 are connected to the cover portion 11 and locked in a pair of support portions 31 that are "fixed independently of the rotation of the operating lever 21". Specifically, in this embodiment, as shown in FIGS. 1 and 2 , the pair of arm portions 12 includes a pair of first arms 121 and a pair of second arms 122 . The pair of first arms 121 are connected to both ends of the cover 11 and are provided to extend straight in the "direction perpendicular to the cover 11". Specifically, one of the first arms 121 is bent from one end of the cover part 11 and extends straight in the "direction perpendicular to the cover part 11", and the other first arm 121 is formed from one end of the cover part 11 The other end is curved and extends straight in the "direction perpendicular to the cover 11". Therefore, the pair of first arms 121 are parallel to each other.

在各第1臂121的前端，設有朝另一個第1臂121側突出的突出部121a(請參考圖1、圖2、圖7、圖9)。整體觀看第1臂121及突出部121a時，形成L字型的形狀。當已將限制構件1安裝於嵌合狀態的連接器裝置時，一對第1臂121沿著一對支承部31的外側，且藉由突出部121a勾掛於支承部31之遠離蓋部11的那一側的緣部，而使限制構件1卡止於支承部31。A protruding portion 121a protruding toward the other first arm 121 is provided at the front end of each first arm 121 (please refer to FIGS. 1, 2, 7, and 9). When the first arm 121 and the protruding portion 121a are viewed as a whole, they form an L-shaped shape. When the restricting member 1 is installed in the connector device in the mated state, the pair of first arms 121 are along the outer sides of the pair of supporting parts 31 and are hooked on the supporting parts 31 away from the cover 11 through the protruding parts 121 a. the edge of that side, so that the restricting member 1 is locked on the supporting portion 31 .

如圖1、圖2所示，不同於第1臂121，第2臂122設成連結於蓋部11的端部。在本例中，第2臂122設在較第1臂121更上方。第2臂122，厚度較第1臂121更薄，從蓋部11的端部較第1臂121更朝內側彎曲，彎曲的前端朝「與蓋部11直交的方向」延伸。As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2 , unlike the first arm 121 , the second arm 122 is connected to the end of the cover 11 . In this example, the second arm 122 is provided above the first arm 121 . The second arm 122 is thinner than the first arm 121 and is bent inward from the end of the cover 11 from the first arm 121 , and the curved front end extends in the "direction perpendicular to the cover 11".

在第2臂122之前端的內側，亦即另一個第2臂122側，設有朝內側突出的突起122a(請參考圖1、圖2、圖10)。該突起122a設成：當已將限制構件1安裝於連接器裝置時，抵接於操作桿21之軸承部21a的下端。該突起122a具有：越往第2臂122的前端，越朝內側突出的倒錐形的形狀。A protrusion 122a protruding inward is provided on the inner side of the front end of the second arm 122, that is, on the other second arm 122 side (please refer to Figures 1, 2, and 10). This protrusion 122a is configured to contact the lower end of the bearing portion 21a of the operating lever 21 when the restricting member 1 is attached to the connector device. The protrusion 122 a has an inverse tapered shape that protrudes inward toward the front end of the second arm 122 .

在第2臂122之前端部的上緣，設有從第2臂122側伸出的伸出部122c(請參考圖1、圖2)。在本實施形態中，伸出部122c朝第2臂122的外側伸出。該伸出部122c設成：位於第1臂121之上下方向的投影範圍內。伸出部122c亦可設成朝第2臂122的內側伸出，亦即朝另一個第2臂122側伸出。An extension portion 122c extending from the second arm 122 side is provided at the upper edge of the front end of the second arm 122 (please refer to FIGS. 1 and 2 ). In this embodiment, the extension part 122c extends outside the second arm 122. This extension part 122c is located within the projection range of the first arm 121 in the up-down direction. The extending portion 122c may be configured to extend toward the inside of the second arm 122, that is, toward the other second arm 122 side.

在第2臂122的前端部，設有從爪122b(請參考圖2)。該爪122b設成從第2臂122的前端部突出，舉例來說，當由使用者將一對第2臂122時用於勾掛。A slave claw 122b is provided at the front end of the second arm 122 (please refer to FIG. 2 ). This claw 122b is provided to protrude from the front end of the second arm 122, and is used for hooking the pair of second arms 122 when the user holds them, for example.

[1-3、作用] 採用圖面說明本實施形態之限制構件1的安裝方法。圖11為將第1實施形態的限制構件1安裝於連接器裝置前之狀態的立體圖，圖12為圖11的局部放大剖面立體圖。在圖12中，省略了連接器2、3之剖面的細部圖示。[1-3, function] The installation method of the restricting member 1 of this embodiment will be explained using the drawings. FIG. 11 is a perspective view of the restricting member 1 according to the first embodiment before being mounted on the connector device, and FIG. 12 is a partially enlarged cross-sectional perspective view of FIG. 11 . In FIG. 12 , detailed illustration of the cross-sections of the connectors 2 and 3 is omitted.

如圖11所示，限制構件1在「插頭連接器2嵌合於插座連接器3，且操作桿21位於第1位置」的狀態下安裝。首先，如圖11所示，倘若由使用者使限制構件1的一對臂部12對安裝面形成譬如超過30度的傾斜，而使限制構件1的勾掛部11a進入第1位置的操作桿21與第2殼體30(更具體地說，凸緣部30a)之間的間隙(請參考圖12)時，勾掛部11a將勾掛於第2殼體30(凸緣部30a)、操作桿21的下端，並以該勾掛部11a作為轉動軸使限制構件1轉動，而使一對臂部12與安裝面成為平行。As shown in FIG. 11 , the restricting member 1 is installed in a state where "the plug connector 2 is fitted into the receptacle connector 3 and the operating lever 21 is located in the first position." First, as shown in FIG. 11 , if the user inclines the pair of arm portions 12 of the restriction member 1 to the mounting surface by, for example, more than 30 degrees, so that the hook portion 11 a of the restriction member 1 enters the operating lever in the first position. 21 and the second housing 30 (more specifically, the flange portion 30a) (please refer to Fig. 12), the hook portion 11a will be hooked on the second housing 30 (flange portion 30a), The lower end of the operating lever 21 is used to rotate the restriction member 1 with the hook portion 11a as a rotation axis, so that the pair of arm portions 12 become parallel to the mounting surface.

此時，第1臂121從支承部31的上方移動於支承部31的外側，第1臂121之前端的突出部121a，從該支承部31的上方迂迴於支承部31而勾掛在「支承部31之遠離蓋部11側的邊緣」，藉此使限制構件1卡止於支承部31(請參考圖7、圖9)。換言之，由於突出部121a通過支承部31上方的空間，並以「迂迴至支承部31之遠離蓋部11側的邊緣」之圓弧狀的路徑移動，因此一對第1臂121只需在一對支承部31的外側藉由轉動而形成移動，不需要朝外側壓開。At this time, the first arm 121 moves from above the support part 31 to the outside of the support part 31, and the protruding part 121a at the front end of the first arm 121 detours around the support part 31 from above the support part 31 and is hooked on the "support part". 31 on the side away from the cover 11", thereby causing the restriction member 1 to be locked on the support portion 31 (please refer to Figures 7 and 9). In other words, since the protruding portion 121a passes through the space above the supporting portion 31 and moves in an arc-shaped path "circuiting to the edge of the supporting portion 31 away from the cover 11", the pair of first arms 121 only need to move in one direction. The outer side of the support portion 31 is moved by rotation, and there is no need to press it outward.

如此一來，限制構件1由突出部121a與支承部31所卡止，並且蓋部11位於「覆蓋操作桿21之前表面」的位置。由於該「覆蓋操作桿21之前表面」的位置，是位於操作桿21之轉動軌道上的位置，故即使操作桿21欲從第1位置轉動，該轉動也將受到「連結突出部121a及第1臂121的蓋部11」限制，因此可強化操作桿21的鎖定。In this way, the restricting member 1 is locked by the protruding portion 121 a and the supporting portion 31 , and the cover portion 11 is positioned at a position “covering the front surface of the operating lever 21 ”. Since the position "covering the front surface of the operating lever 21" is located on the rotation track of the operating lever 21, even if the operating lever 21 wants to rotate from the first position, the rotation will be affected by the "connecting protrusion 121a and the first position". The cover part 11" of the arm 121 is restricted, so the locking of the operating lever 21 can be strengthened.

此外，伴隨著上述之第1臂121的轉動，藉由蓋部11而成為一體的第2臂122也形成轉動。此時，也能利用伸出部122c而朝下方壓入。一對第2臂122，可視需要由使用者勾住爪122b朝外側擴開，並沿著操作桿21的左右側面而轉動，使突起122a轉入軸承部21a的下端。如此一來，一旦突起122a轉入軸承部21a的下端，將藉由設於軸承部21a下方的空間，使一對第2臂122從「已朝外側擴開的狀態」朝內側復位。藉此，能使突起122a抵接於軸承部21a的下端(請參考圖10)。因此，即使為了使限制構件1的一對臂部121升起而將勾掛部11a作為轉動軸並藉由外力形成轉動，由於突起122a抵接於軸承部21a的下端，因此能防止限制構件1意外地脫離。此外，藉由欲促使操作桿21轉動而從軸承部21a作用於突起122a的力，透過第1臂121而由第2殼體30所支承。In addition, along with the above-mentioned rotation of the first arm 121, the second arm 122 integrated with the cover 11 also rotates. At this time, the extending portion 122c can also be used to press in downward. The pair of second arms 122 can be extended outward by the user by hooking the claws 122b if necessary, and rotated along the left and right side surfaces of the operating lever 21 so that the protrusions 122a rotate into the lower end of the bearing portion 21a. In this way, once the protrusion 122a rotates into the lower end of the bearing portion 21a, the pair of second arms 122 will be returned inward from the "state that has been expanded toward the outside" through the space provided below the bearing portion 21a. Thereby, the protrusion 122a can be brought into contact with the lower end of the bearing portion 21a (please refer to FIG. 10). Therefore, even if the hook portion 11a is used as a rotation axis to rotate by external force in order to raise the pair of arm portions 121 of the restricting member 1, the protrusion 122a is in contact with the lower end of the bearing portion 21a, so that the restricting member 1 can be prevented from being rotated. Unexpected disengagement. In addition, the force acting on the protrusion 122a from the bearing portion 21a in order to rotate the operation lever 21 is supported by the second housing 30 through the first arm 121.

當卸下限制構件1時，勾住爪122b將一對第2臂122朝外側擴開，將勾掛部11a作為轉動軸，使一對臂部12朝上方升起地形成轉動。如此一來，突起122a與軸承部21的下端之間的卡止關係受到解除，突起122a及突出部121a，通過操作桿21的左右側面，可將限制構件1卸下。When the restricting member 1 is removed, the hooking claws 122b expand the pair of second arms 122 outward, and the hooking portion 11a is used as a rotation axis to rotate the pair of arm portions 12 upward. In this way, the locking relationship between the protrusion 122a and the lower end of the bearing portion 21 is released, and the protrusion 122a and the protruding portion 121a can be removed through the left and right side surfaces of the operating lever 21.

[1-4、效果][1-4, effect]

(1)本實施形態的限制構件1，是用來限制「維持插頭連接器2及插座連接器3之嵌合狀態」的操作桿21之轉動的限制構件1，操作桿21，相對於插頭連接器2所具有的第1殼體20，被轉動支承成可從維持嵌合狀態的第1位置，朝已解除嵌合狀態的第2位置轉動，插座連接器3具備第2殼體30，限制構件1具備：限制部，設在操作桿21從第1位置朝第2位置的轉動軌道上，用來限制第1位置之操作桿21的轉動；及卡止部，設成連結於限制部，並卡止於前述第2殼體30。具體地說，在本實施形態中，第2殼體30具有：豎立設置在較「位於第1位置的操作桿21」更外側之對向位置的一對支承部31，卡止部設成從限制部連結，並作為卡止於一對支承部31的一對臂部12。(1) The restricting member 1 of this embodiment is a restricting member 1 for restricting the rotation of the operating lever 21 "maintaining the mating state of the plug connector 2 and the receptacle connector 3". The operating lever 21 is connected to the plug. The first housing 20 provided in the connector 2 is rotatably supported from a first position in which the mating state is maintained to a second position in which the mating state is released. The socket connector 3 is provided with a second housing 30. The member 1 is provided with: a restricting portion provided on the rotation track of the operating lever 21 from the first position toward the second position for restricting the rotation of the operating lever 21 at the first position; and a blocking portion connected to the restricting portion. and is locked on the second housing 30 . Specifically, in this embodiment, the second housing 30 has a pair of support portions 31 erected at opposite positions outside the "operating lever 21 located at the first position", and the locking portion is provided from The restricting portion is connected to a pair of arm portions 12 and is locked to a pair of supporting portions 31 .

如此一來，可強化插頭連接器2與插座連接器3之嵌合狀態的鎖定。亦即，限制部設在操作桿21的轉動軌道上，且從該限制部的兩端連結設置的一對臂部12，由於卡止在「獨立於操作桿21的轉動之外的一對支承部31」，故可抑制操作桿21從第1位置起的轉動，能強化嵌合狀態的鎖定。卡止部所卡止的對象，只要是獨立於操作桿21的轉動之外且能固定的對象即可，可如本實施形態為支承部31，或者也可以是譬如凸緣部30a的邊緣等之第2殼體30的任意部位。In this way, the locking of the mated state of the plug connector 2 and the socket connector 3 can be strengthened. That is, the restricting portion is provided on the rotation track of the operating lever 21, and the pair of arm portions 12 connected from both ends of the restricting portion are locked on a pair of supports independent of the rotation of the operating lever 21. 31", the rotation of the operation lever 21 from the first position can be suppressed, and the locking of the fitted state can be strengthened. The object to be locked by the locking part only needs to be an object that is independent of the rotation of the operating lever 21 and can be fixed. It may be the support part 31 as in this embodiment, or it may be, for example, the edge of the flange part 30a. any part of the second housing 30.

(2)限制部，是覆蓋操作桿21之前表面的蓋部11，一對臂部12具有：與蓋部11的兩端連結，並在「與蓋部11直交的方向」上筆直地延伸的一對第1臂121，在第1臂121的前端分別設有：朝另一個第1臂121側突起的突出部121a。(2) The restriction part is the cover part 11 that covers the front surface of the operating lever 21. The pair of arm parts 12 are connected to both ends of the cover part 11 and extend straight in the "direction perpendicular to the cover part 11". The pair of first arms 121 is each provided with a protruding portion 121a protruding toward the other first arm 121 side at the front end of the first arm 121.

如此一來，突出部121a可勾掛在獨立於操作桿21的轉動之外的支承部31之從蓋部11遠離側的邊緣，可將限制構件1固定於插座連接器3(第2殼體30)。因此，設於操作桿21之轉動軌道上的蓋部11，其位置也受到固定。據此，即使欲令操作桿21轉動，也能由蓋部11限制操作桿21的轉動。因此，可防止因操作桿21的轉動而解除插頭連接器2與插座連接器3之嵌合狀態的事態。In this way, the protruding portion 121a can be hooked on the edge of the support portion 31 on the side away from the cover portion 11 independent of the rotation of the operating lever 21, and the restricting member 1 can be fixed to the socket connector 3 (second housing). 30). Therefore, the position of the cover 11 provided on the rotation track of the operating lever 21 is also fixed. According to this, even if the operation lever 21 is rotated, the rotation of the operation lever 21 can be restricted by the cover 11 . Therefore, it is possible to prevent the plug connector 2 and the receptacle connector 3 from being released from the mating state due to the rotation of the operation lever 21 .

(3)限制構件1，在面向操作桿21之蓋部11的內面的下端部，為了進入第1位置的操作桿21與第2殼體30之間的間隙，設有朝單一方向延伸，且朝內側鼓出的勾掛部11a。(3) The restricting member 1 is provided with a lower end portion facing the inner surface of the cover 11 of the operating lever 21 extending in a single direction in order to enter the gap between the operating lever 21 and the second housing 30 in the first position, And the hook portion 11a bulges inward.

如此一來，將已進入上述間隙的勾掛部11a作為軸並促使限制構件1轉動，可對插座連接器3(第2殼體30)形成安裝。亦即，利用所謂「使勾掛部11a進入上述間隙，將勾掛部11a作為轉動軸而使限制構件1轉動」的一連貫作業，能使第1臂121的突出部121a勾掛於「支承部31之遠離蓋部11側的邊緣」而安裝限制構件1，能提高作業效率。In this way, the socket connector 3 (second housing 30) can be mounted by using the hook portion 11a that has entered the gap as a shaft to urge the restricting member 1 to rotate. That is, by using a continuous operation of "making the hooking part 11a enter the above-mentioned gap, using the hooking part 11a as a rotation axis to rotate the restriction member 1", the protruding portion 121a of the first arm 121 can be hooked on the "support" Installing the restricting member 1 on the edge of the portion 31 away from the cover portion 11 can improve work efficiency.

此外，在沒有勾掛部11a的場合中，為了不使第1臂121的突出部121a對限制構件1的安裝造成妨礙，雖可將一對第1臂121朝外側壓擴(壓開)後安裝，但藉由設置勾掛部11a，可將勾掛部11a作為轉動軸，並藉由轉動使第1臂121的突出部121a迂迴於支承部31，而以「勾掛於支承部31之遠離蓋部11側的邊緣」的方式安裝限制構件1，故無需將第1臂121壓開後安裝，能提高作業效率。舉例來說，在限制構件1為壓鑄件的場合中，雖然壓鑄件具有硬度，但有時仍能藉由一定程度以上的外力而引起塑性變形，由於不需要將第1臂121壓開，因此能防止「引發塑性變形」的情形。In addition, in the case where there is no hooking portion 11a, in order to prevent the protruding portion 121a of the first arm 121 from interfering with the installation of the restricting member 1, the pair of first arms 121 can be expanded (pressed apart) outward. installation, but by providing the hooking part 11a, the hooking part 11a can be used as a rotation axis, and the protruding part 121a of the first arm 121 can be detoured around the supporting part 31 by rotation, so as to be "hooked on the supporting part 31". The restriction member 1 is installed away from the edge on the cover 11 side, so there is no need to press open the first arm 121 before installation, which improves work efficiency. For example, in the case where the restricting member 1 is a die-casting part, although the die-casting part has hardness, plastic deformation may still be caused by an external force exceeding a certain level. Since there is no need to press the first arm 121 open, It can prevent "plastic deformation".

(4)一對臂部12，分別具有連結於蓋部11之端部的第2臂122，在第2臂122之前端的內側設有：為了抵接於「承接操作桿21之轉動軸的軸承部21a」的下端，而朝內側突出的突起122a。如此一來，突起122a勾掛於軸承部21a的下端，可防止因「將勾掛部11a作為轉動軸的轉動」而使限制構件1脫離的情形。(4) The pair of arm portions 12 each have a second arm 122 connected to the end of the cover portion 11. A bearing is provided inside the front end of the second arm 122 in order to abut against the rotation axis of the operating lever 21. The protrusion 122a protrudes inward from the lower end of the portion 21a". In this way, the protrusion 122a is hooked on the lower end of the bearing part 21a, thereby preventing the restricting member 1 from being detached due to "rotation using the hooking part 11a as the rotation axis".

(5)第2臂122，厚度較第1臂121更薄，且從蓋部11的端部較第1臂121更朝內側彎曲，彎曲的前端朝「與蓋部11直交的方向」延伸。如此一來，第2臂122在內側具有彈性，在安裝時藉由稍微地壓開，使一對第2臂122朝內側彈推。然後，當安裝後則復原而進入軸承部21a的下端，由於突起122a抵接於軸承部21a的下端，因此可防止因上述轉動而使限制構件1脫離的情形。此外，當卸除限制構件1時，將第2臂122壓擴(壓開)而解除朝操作桿21的勾掛，可藉由「將勾掛部11a作為轉動軸的轉動」，以一連貫的作業簡便地卸除限制構件1。(5) The second arm 122 is thinner than the first arm 121, and is bent inward from the end of the cover 11 relative to the first arm 121, and the curved front end extends in the "direction perpendicular to the cover 11." In this way, the second arms 122 are elastic on the inside, and by being slightly pressed apart during installation, the pair of second arms 122 are pushed inward. Then, after installation, it returns to the lower end of the bearing portion 21a. Since the protrusion 122a abuts the lower end of the bearing portion 21a, it is possible to prevent the restricting member 1 from being detached due to the above-mentioned rotation. In addition, when the restricting member 1 is removed, the second arm 122 is expanded (pressed open) to release the hook from the operating lever 21. By "rotating the hook part 11a as the rotation axis", a continuous to easily remove the restricting member 1.

(6)突起122a具有：越往第2臂122的前端，越朝內側突出的倒錐形的形狀。如此一來，在安裝限制構件1之際將第2臂122朝外側壓開的場合中，突起122a的面與操作桿21的側面容易形成平行，能容易地安裝。(6) The protrusion 122 a has an inverse tapered shape that protrudes inward toward the front end of the second arm 122 . In this way, when the second arm 122 is pressed outward when installing the restricting member 1, the surface of the protrusion 122a and the side surface of the operating lever 21 can easily become parallel, and the installation can be easily performed.

(7)在第2臂122之前端部的上緣，設有從第2臂122伸出的伸出部122c。如此一來，當安裝限制構件1時，將限制構件1朝下方壓入，可使第2臂122的突起122a容易轉入操作桿21之軸承部21a的下方，使安裝變得容易。(7) An extension portion 122c extending from the second arm 122 is provided at the upper edge of the front end portion of the second arm 122 . In this way, when the restricting member 1 is installed, pressing the restricting member 1 downward can make the protrusion 122a of the second arm 122 easily rotate under the bearing portion 21a of the operating lever 21, making the installation easy.

(8)伸出部122c設成：位於第1臂121之上下方向的投影範圍內。如此一來，相較於「伸出部122c朝出第1臂121之上下方向的投影範圍而伸出」的場合，能使限制構件1小型化。(8) The extension portion 122c is located within the projection range of the first arm 121 in the up-down direction. In this way, compared with the case where "the extension part 122c extends out of the projection range of the first arm 121 in the vertical direction", the restricting member 1 can be miniaturized.

(9)在第2臂122的前端部設有爪122b。如此一來，當卸下限制構件1時，可藉由勾住爪122b而將第2臂122朝外側壓開，而容易卸下。(9) The claw 122b is provided at the front end of the second arm 122 . In this way, when the restricting member 1 is removed, the second arm 122 can be pressed outward by hooking the claw 122b, so that the restricting member 1 can be easily removed.

(10)在蓋部11面向「操作桿21之前表面」的內面，設有抵接於「設在操作桿21之前表面的爪部21c」的凸部11b。如此一來，由於能以凸部11b按壓操作桿21之前表面的爪122b，因此可維持該爪122b與「設於第1殼體20之前表面的突起」之間的卡止關係，能防止操作桿21的轉動。(10) On the inner surface of the cover 11 facing the "front surface of the operating lever 21", there is provided a convex portion 11b that contacts the "claw portion 21c provided on the front surface of the operating lever 21". In this way, since the protrusion 11b can press the claw 122b on the front surface of the operating lever 21, the locking relationship between the claw 122b and the "protrusion provided on the front surface of the first housing 20" can be maintained, and the operation can be prevented.

FIG. 14 is a perspective view of the restricting member 1 of the second embodiment in a state where it is mounted on the connector device. FIG. 15 is a front view of the restricting member 1 according to the second embodiment attached to the connector device. FIG. 16 is a plan view of the restricting member 1 of the second embodiment attached to the connector device. FIG. 17 is a D-D cross-sectional view of FIG. 16 . FIG. 18 is a perspective view of the restricting member 1 of the second embodiment before being mounted on the connector device.

如圖13~圖15所示，一對臂部12，隔著位於第1位置的操作桿21設成平行，蓋部11設成連結一對臂部12。因此，限制構件1整體呈現U字型的形狀。As shown in FIGS. 13 to 15 , the pair of arm portions 12 are provided in parallel across the operation lever 21 located at the first position, and the cover portion 11 is provided to connect the pair of arm portions 12 . Therefore, the restricting member 1 has a U-shaped shape as a whole.

如圖13所示，在一對臂部12之前端的內側，設有凹部123。該凹部123，具有沿著支承部31之邊緣的形狀，且可供支承部31***。如圖13、圖15所示，在一對臂部12，設有鼓出部124。該鼓出部124，在「從一對臂部12的前端，分隔操作桿21之寬度量」的位置，朝內側鼓出。這裡所謂的「操作桿21的寬度」，是指從位置第1位置之操作桿21的下端到上端的長度，而這裡所謂的「內側」，是指另一個臂部12側，設於一對臂部12的鼓出部124彼此相對向。鼓出部124，譬如可形成從設有臂部12的蓋部11的端部，朝臂部12的前端鼓出至「從一對臂部12的前端，分隔操作桿21之寬度量」的位置為止的樣態，或亦可在限制構件1的內側設置階段部。As shown in FIG. 13 , a recessed portion 123 is provided inside the front ends of the pair of arm portions 12 . The recessed portion 123 has a shape along the edge of the supporting portion 31 and can be inserted into the supporting portion 31 . As shown in FIGS. 13 and 15 , the pair of arm portions 12 are provided with bulging portions 124 . This bulging portion 124 bulges inward at a position "a distance equal to the width of the operating lever 21 from the front ends of the pair of arm portions 12". The "width of the operating lever 21" here refers to the length from the lower end to the upper end of the operating lever 21 in the first position, and the "inner side" referred to here refers to the other arm 12 side, which is provided between a pair of The bulges 124 of the arms 12 face each other. The bulging portion 124 can be formed, for example, from the end of the cover portion 11 on which the arm portion 12 is provided, toward the front end of the arm portion 12 to "the width that separates the operating lever 21 from the front ends of the pair of arm portions 12." Alternatively, a step portion may be provided inside the restricting member 1 .

本實施形態的限制構件1，如圖18所示，從上方安裝。亦即，從「使一對臂部12形成沿著上下方向」的狀態，將支承部31***凹部123而安裝限制構件1。藉由將支承部31***凹部123，使限制構件1由支承部31所卡止(請參考圖17)。The restriction member 1 of this embodiment is installed from above as shown in FIG. 18 . That is, from the state of "arranging the pair of arm parts 12 in the up-down direction", the support part 31 is inserted into the recessed part 123, and the restriction member 1 is attached. By inserting the supporting part 31 into the recess 123, the restricting member 1 is locked by the supporting part 31 (please refer to FIG. 17).

此外，倘若使限制構件1下降至下方為止(譬如，一對臂部12的前端抵接於凸緣部30a)，則如圖15所示，鼓出部124抵接於操作桿21之側面的上端。此時，鼓出部124由於位在操作桿21的轉動軌道上，故可作為「抑制操作桿21之轉動的限制部」發揮作用。換言之，由於在「卡止於支承部31的一對臂部12」設有鼓出部124，因此鼓出部124可限制操作桿21的轉動。In addition, if the restriction member 1 is lowered downward (for example, the front ends of the pair of arm portions 12 are in contact with the flange portion 30a), the bulging portion 124 is in contact with the side surface of the operation lever 21 as shown in Fig. 15 upper end. At this time, since the bulging portion 124 is located on the rotation track of the operating lever 21, it can function as a "restricting portion that inhibits the rotation of the operating lever 21." In other words, since the bulging portion 124 is provided on the "pair of arm portions 12 locked on the support portion 31", the bulging portion 124 can restrict the rotation of the operating lever 21.

[2-2、作用、效果] 在本實施形態的限制構件1中，第2殼體30，具有豎立設置在較「位於第1位置的操作桿21」更外側之位置的支承部31，在作為卡止部的臂部12之前端的內側，設有「具有沿著支承部31之邊緣的形狀，且可供支承部31***」的凹部123，在臂部12，於「從臂部12的前端，分隔操作桿21之寬度量」的位置，設有朝內側鼓出的鼓出部124，並將鼓出部124作為限制部。[2-2, function, effect] In the restriction member 1 of this embodiment, the second housing 30 has the support portion 31 erected at a position further outside the "operating lever 21 located at the first position" in front of the arm portion 12 serving as a locking portion. On the inner side of the end, there is a recess 123 "having a shape along the edge of the support part 31 and allowing the support part 31 to be inserted". ” position, a bulging portion 124 bulging inward is provided, and the bulging portion 124 serves as a restricting portion.

如此一來，鼓出部124與位於第1位置的操作桿21的上端抵接，此外，限制構件1透過凹部123而固定於插座連接器3(第2殼體30)。因此，即使欲令操作桿21轉動，也能由鼓出部124限制操作桿21的轉動。因此，可防止因操作桿21的轉動而解除插頭連接器2與插座連接器3之嵌合狀態的事態。In this way, the bulging portion 124 comes into contact with the upper end of the operating lever 21 at the first position, and the restricting member 1 is fixed to the socket connector 3 (second housing 30 ) through the recessed portion 123 . Therefore, even if the operation lever 21 is intended to rotate, the rotation of the operation lever 21 can be restricted by the bulging portion 124 . Therefore, it is possible to prevent the plug connector 2 and the receptacle connector 3 from being released from the mating state due to the rotation of the operation lever 21 .

此外，臂部12，隔著位於第1位置的操作桿21平行地設有一對，限制構件1具有連結一對臂部12的蓋部11。如此一來，一對臂部12可藉由蓋部11而作為「形成一體化的單一構件」來構成，相較於將臂部12的凹部123分別***支承部31的場合，能提高作業性。In addition, a pair of arm portions 12 are provided in parallel across the operating lever 21 located at the first position, and the restriction member 1 has a cover portion 11 that connects the pair of arm portions 12 . In this way, the pair of arm portions 12 can be constituted as an "integrated single member" by the cover portion 11. Compared with the case where the recessed portions 123 of the arm portions 12 are respectively inserted into the supporting portion 31, the workability can be improved. .

[3、其他實施形態] 本發明並不侷限於上述實施形態，也包含以下的其他實施形態。此外，本發明也包含：上述實施形態及下述的其他實施形態的全部、或其中的任一種組合的形態。不僅如此，這些實施形態在不脫離發明要旨的範圍內，可執行各種的省略、置換、變更，而其變形也為本發明所包含。[3. Other implementation forms] The present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiment, but also includes the following other embodiments. In addition, the present invention also includes all of the above-described embodiments and other embodiments described below, or any combination thereof. Furthermore, various omissions, substitutions, and changes can be made in these embodiments within the scope that does not deviate from the gist of the invention, and the modifications thereof are also included in the present invention.

舉例來說，在第1及第2實施形態中，被卡止部32雖被設成從支承部31朝「內側，亦即呈現嵌合狀態的第1殼體20側」突出，但只要能與卡止部21b形成卡止，亦可設成從支承部31朝外側突出。亦即，安裝在「被卡止部32設成從支承部31朝外側突出」之連接器裝置的限制構件1，也包含於本發明的範圍。For example, in the first and second embodiments, the locked portion 32 is set to protrude from the supporting portion 31 toward the "inside, that is, the side of the first housing 20 in the fitted state." However, as long as it can It may be latched with the latching part 21b and protrude outward from the support part 31. That is, the restriction member 1 mounted on a connector device in which "the locked portion 32 is configured to protrude outward from the support portion 31" is also included in the scope of the present invention.

雖然在第1實施形態中，一對臂部12設成連結於限制部，並作為卡止於第2殼體的卡止部，但臂部12也可以是前述的其中的任何一種。In the first embodiment, the pair of arm portions 12 is connected to the restriction portion and serves as a locking portion to be locked to the second housing. However, the arm portions 12 may be any of the above-mentioned ones.

雖然在第1實施形態中，將「設在從第1位置朝第2位置之操作桿21的轉動軌道上，用來限制第1位置之操作桿21的轉動」的限制部作為蓋部11，並將「設成連結於限制部，並且卡止於第2殼體」的卡止部作為臂部12，但本發明並不侷限於此。In the first embodiment, the cover 11 is a restricting portion "provided on the rotation track of the operating lever 21 from the first position toward the second position to restrict the rotation of the operating lever 21 at the first position." The arm portion 12 is a locking portion that is "connected to the restricting portion and locked to the second housing", but the present invention is not limited thereto.

舉例來說，將突起部122a作為限制部，並將「第1臂121，更具體地說，是第1臂121的底面」作為卡止部的形態，也屬於本發明的範圍。亦即，在已將限制構件1安裝於「操作桿21位在維持嵌合狀態的第1位置」之連接器裝置的狀態下，倘若欲使操作桿21轉動，便如圖10所示，軸承部21a抵接於突起122a，而限制操作桿21的轉動。換言之，突起122a，設於從第1位置朝第2位置之操作桿21的轉動軌道上，限制操作桿21的轉動。此外，倘若以突起122a阻止了「欲使操作桿21轉動」的動作，突起122a將被朝下方按壓，伴隨於此，與突起122a連結的第1臂121(具體地說，為其下表面)將壓附於第2殼體30(具體地說，為凸緣部30a的上表面)。再者，由於第2殼體30(凸緣部30a)獨立於操作桿21的轉動之外受到固定，因此，藉由第1臂121抵接於第2殼體30(凸緣部30a)，而成為第1臂121卡止於第2殼體30(凸緣部30a)。For example, a configuration in which the protruding portion 122a is used as the restricting portion and "the first arm 121, more specifically, the bottom surface of the first arm 121" is used as the locking portion, also falls within the scope of the present invention. That is, when the restricting member 1 is installed in the connector device with the operating lever 21 in the first position maintaining the mated state, if the operating lever 21 is to be rotated, as shown in Figure 10, the bearing The portion 21a contacts the protrusion 122a to restrict the rotation of the operating lever 21. In other words, the protrusion 122a is provided on the rotation track of the operation lever 21 from the first position toward the second position, and restricts the rotation of the operation lever 21. In addition, if the movement "to rotate the operation lever 21" is blocked by the protrusion 122a, the protrusion 122a will be pressed downward, and with this, the first arm 121 (specifically, its lower surface) connected to the protrusion 122a will It is pressed against the second housing 30 (specifically, the upper surface of the flange portion 30a). Furthermore, since the second housing 30 (flange portion 30a) is fixed independently of the rotation of the operating lever 21, when the first arm 121 comes into contact with the second housing 30 (flange portion 30a), Then, the first arm 121 is locked to the second housing 30 (flange portion 30a).
