(3) 上記(2)の構成のコネクタ嵌合治具であって、前記本体係合部が本体外周面から突出する円環状の本体フランジにより形成され、前記内筒係合部が内筒外周面から突出する円環状の内筒フランジにより形成されるコネクタ嵌合治具。
(4) 第1ハウジングと第2ハウジングとが低挿脱力で着脱される低挿入力コネクタであって、前記第1ハウジングの嵌合面側に突設され、前記第2ハウジングのコネクタ嵌合方向に貫設された軸孔を貫通する貫通軸と、前記貫通軸の貫通先端部に設けられた第1係合部と、前記軸孔が開口された前記第2ハウジングの外表面に設けられ、前記第1係合部よりも前記貫通軸の中心線寄りに位置する第2係合部と、を備え、前記第1係合部と前記第2係合部をコネクタ嵌合方向に沿って相対移動させることにより、前記第1ハウジングと前記第2ハウジングがコネクタ嵌合方向に沿って相対移動する低挿入力コネクタ。
(5) 上記(4)の構成の低挿入力コネクタであって、前記第1係合部が、前記第2係合部を内方に係合する第1係合空間を区画形成する第1係合縁部を有し、前記第2係合部が、前記第2ハウジングの外表面との間に第2係合空間を区画形成する第2係合縁部を有する低挿入力コネクタ。
また、第1ハウジングの第1係合部と第2ハウジングの第2係合部は、それぞれ治具本体の本体係合部および内筒部材の内筒係合部に対して嵌合方向に沿って係止される簡単な形状であればよいので、第1ハウジングおよび第2ハウジングに対して複雑なハウジング構造を必要としない。
上記(2)の構成のコネクタ嵌合治具によれば、治具本体を成形の容易な円筒状としながら、治具本体内に嵌装される内筒部材を軸方向にのみ相対移動可能に保持できる。
上記(3)の構成のコネクタ嵌合治具によれば、本体係合部および内筒係合部を円環状の本体フランジおよび内筒フランジにより形成することで、それぞれ第1ハウジングの第1係合部および第2ハウジングの第2係合部に係合させる際の方向性が無くなり、コネクタの嵌合作業性が向上する。
上記(4)の構成の低挿入力コネクタによれば、例えば、上記(1)の構成のコネクタ嵌合治具を用いて、第1係合部と第2係合部をコネクタ嵌合方向に沿って相対移動させることにより、第1ハウジングと第2ハウジングを容易に嵌合または離脱できる。
また、従来の低挿入力コネクタのような複雑なハウジング構造を形成する必要がない。
上記(5)の構成の低挿入力コネクタによれば、第1係合縁部または第2係合縁部に対応する第1係合部および第2係合部を係合させることができる例えば上記(1)の構成のコネクタ嵌合治具を用いることによって、第2係合縁部を下部押下座として第1係合部を引き上げたり、第1係合縁部を上部押下座として第2係合部を引き上げたりして、第1ハウジングと第2ハウジングをコネクタ嵌合方向に沿って容易に相対移動させることができる。
図1~図3に示すように、本発明の第1実施形態に係るコネクタ嵌合治具11は、治具本体13と、内筒部材15と、ねじ軸17と、に大別して構成されている。
内筒部材15は、下方の内筒一端部25に設けた内筒係合部27が治具本体13の本体一端部21の開口から突出するように治具本体13内に嵌装されて軸方向にのみ相対移動可能に保持されている。内筒係合部27は、後述する雌コネクタハウジング63に形成された第2係合部87に係合する。
そして、ねじ軸17は、内筒部材15の内筒内周面103に形成されたねじ部105に螺合する。また、ねじ軸17は、軸方向移動規制部材19によって治具本体13の本体他端部41に対して回転自在かつ軸方向に相対移動不能に保持される。
雄コネクタハウジング59は、上面が嵌合開口部65となって開口する四角形のフード部67を有し、フード部67の内方にはフード部67と略相似形の雄コネクタ部69が突設されている。雄コネクタ部69の内部には図示しない複数の接続端子が収容されている。
第1係合縁部93は、治具本体13の本体係合部23に対応して係合し、第2係合縁部97は、内筒部材15の内筒係合部27に対応して係合する。
低挿入力コネクタ55をコネクタ嵌合治具11によって嵌合するには、先ず、図5(a)に示すように、雄コネクタハウジング59に突設された貫通軸83を雌コネクタハウジング63の軸孔81に貫通させる。
図5(b)に示すように、ねじ軸17を反時計回りに回転操作すると、内筒部材15が治具本体13の下方へ突出し、内筒フランジ123が下部押下座99を押圧する。これにより、図6に示すように、本体フランジ121が第1係合縁部93を介して第1係合部79を引き上げ、第1係合部79を設けられた貫通軸83が引き上げられることで、雄コネクタハウジング59と雌コネクタハウジング63とが嵌合される。
図8に示すように、軸方向移動規制部材150は、ブロック凹部147の対向壁に鍔部151を設け、この鍔部151をねじ軸17Aの首部31Aに形成した首部係合溝153に係合する構造としてもよい。この変形例によれば、ねじ軸17Aに鍔部33を設ける必要がなく、市販品を加工することによってねじ軸17Aを容易に形成できる。
図9に示すように、本第2実施形態に係るコネクタ嵌合治具125は、治具本体13とトルクレンチ等の回転駆動部127とが、一体に構成されている。
回転駆動部127は、ヘッドカバー133の中心に回転駆動軸135が突出しており、回転駆動軸135はねじ軸17の頭部29に相対回転不能に連結されている。この回転駆動部127は、回転駆動軸135が不図示の電動モータまたはエアアクチュエータ等によって正逆方向に回転可能となっている。
また、本出願は、2011年3月1日出願の日本特許出願(特願2011-044364)に基づくものであり、その内容はここに参照として取り込まれる。
