Description
本明細書によって開示される技術は、圧着端子及び端子付き電線に関する。
The technology disclosed in this specification relates to a crimp terminal and an electric wire with a terminal.
電線に圧着される圧着端子として、ワイヤーバレルに対して継手部を介して連なる第2バレル部を設け、継手部を折り返して第2バレル部をワイヤーバレルの一部に重ねた状態で芯線に圧着する技術が考案されている(特許文献1参照)。ワイヤーバレルと第2バレル部とが重なる部分では、芯線を比較的強い圧縮力で圧縮することになるため、芯線の表面の酸化被膜が破壊され、新生面が露出する。これにより、圧着端子と芯線との間の電気抵抗を小さくすることができる。一方、ワイヤーバレルにおいて第2バレル部が重なっていない部分は、比較的弱い圧縮力で芯線を圧縮することとなるため、芯線の損傷をより確実に抑制することができる。これにより、ワイヤーバレルの芯線に対する保持力を確保することができる。
As a crimping terminal to be crimped to the electric wire, a second barrel portion is provided which is connected to the wire barrel via a joint portion, and the joint portion is folded and crimped to the core wire in a state where the second barrel portion is overlapped with a part of the wire barrel. A technique has been devised (see Patent Document 1). Since the core wire is compressed with a relatively strong compressive force at the portion where the wire barrel and the second barrel portion overlap, the oxide film on the surface of the core wire is destroyed, and the new surface is exposed. Thereby, the electrical resistance between a crimp terminal and a core wire can be made small. On the other hand, since the portion of the wire barrel where the second barrel portion does not overlap compresses the core wire with a relatively weak compressive force, damage to the core wire can be more reliably suppressed. Thereby, the retention strength with respect to the core wire of a wire barrel is securable.
上記構成では、ワイヤーバレルと第2バレル部とを重ねる作業が必要となり、製造工程が複雑化してしまう。
In the above configuration, an operation of stacking the wire barrel and the second barrel portion is required, and the manufacturing process becomes complicated.
本明細書によって開示される技術は、上記のような事情に基づいて完成されたものであって、製造工程を複雑化させることなく、芯線に対する保持力の確保と、芯線に係る電気抵抗を小さくすることとを両立させることを目的とする。

It aims at making it compatible.
本明細書によって開示される圧着端子は、芯線と前記芯線を被覆する絶縁被覆とを備える電線に圧着される圧着端子であって、前記電線において前記絶縁被覆から露出された前記芯線が配置される底板部と、前記底板部の両側部から前記芯線の延び方向と交差する方向にそれぞれ延出されると共に、前記芯線に巻き付くようにして前記芯線を圧縮しながら圧着される一対の第1ワイヤーバレル部と、前記底板部の両側部から前記芯線の延び方向と交差する方向にそれぞれ延出されると共に、前記芯線に巻き付くようにして前記芯線を圧縮しながら圧着される一対の第2ワイヤーバレル部と、を備え、前記第1ワイヤーバレル部の前記底板部からの延出長さは、前記第2ワイヤーバレル部の前記底板部からの延出長さよりも大きいことに特徴を有する。

上記構成の圧着端子において、一対の第1ワイヤーバレル部と一対の第2ワイヤーバレル部とを圧着治具で一括して圧着すると、延出長さが大きい一対の第1ワイヤーバレル部が、一対の第2ワイヤーバレル部に比べて、芯線をより強く圧縮することになる。この結果、一対の第1ワイヤーバレル部によって圧縮される部分においては、芯線の表面の酸化被膜が破壊され、新生面が露出することで、芯線に係る電気抵抗を小さくすることができる。一方、一対の第2ワイヤーバレル部においては、比較的弱い圧縮力で芯線を圧縮することになるため、芯線の損傷をより確実に抑制することができ、芯線に対する保持力を確保することができる。このように、上記構成によれば、ワイヤーバレルと第2バレル部とを重ねる作業を行うことなく、芯線に対する保持力の確保と芯線に係る電気抵抗を小さくすることとを両立させることができる。
In the crimp terminal having the above configuration, when the pair of first wire barrel portions and the pair of second wire barrel portions are collectively crimped by a crimping jig, the pair of first wire barrel portions having a large extension length is paired.

On the other hand, in the pair of second wire barrel portions, the core wire is compressed with a relatively weak compressive force. Therefore, damage to the core wire can be more reliably suppressed, and a holding force for the core wire can be secured. .

また、少なくとも2本の前記電線と、2組の前記一対の第2ワイヤーバレル部と、を備え、前記圧着端子は、前記2本の前記電線のうち一方の電線の中間部において露出された前記芯線と、前記2本の前記電線のうち他方の電線の前記芯線と、を接続するスプライス端子とされ、前記一対の第2ワイヤーバレル部は、前記一方の電線の前記芯線の延び方向において、前記一対の第1ワイヤーバレル部の両側に1組ずつ配されているものとすることができる。

First, as shown in FIG. 3, a single plate-
(圧着工程)
次に、図6に示す圧着治具60(アンビル61及びクリンパ62)を用いて、本線11及び分岐線12に対してスプライス端子20を圧着する。圧着治具60を用いて本線11及び分岐線12にスプライス端子20を圧着する際には、まず、本線11における中間部の絶縁被覆11Bを剥がして芯線11Aの一部を露出させ、分岐線12における端末部の絶縁被覆12Bを剥がして芯線12Aの一部を露出させる。 (Crimping process)
Next, thesplice terminal 20 is crimped to the main line 11 and the branch line 12 using the crimping jig 60 (anvil 61 and crimper 62) shown in FIG. When the splice terminal 20 is crimped to the main line 11 and the branch line 12 using the crimping jig 60, first, the intermediate coating 11B in the main line 11 is peeled off to expose a part of the core wire 11A. The insulation coating 12B of the terminal portion is peeled off to expose a part of the core wire 12A.
次に、図6に示す圧着治具60(アンビル61及びクリンパ62)を用いて、本線11及び分岐線12に対してスプライス端子20を圧着する。圧着治具60を用いて本線11及び分岐線12にスプライス端子20を圧着する際には、まず、本線11における中間部の絶縁被覆11Bを剥がして芯線11Aの一部を露出させ、分岐線12における端末部の絶縁被覆12Bを剥がして芯線12Aの一部を露出させる。 (Crimping process)
Next, the
次に、図6に示すように、スプライス端子20をアンビル61上に配置すると共に、露出された芯線11A及び芯線12Aをスプライス端子20の底板部21の上方に配置する。圧着される前の状態では、図6に示すように、一対の第1ワイヤーバレル部30,30は、互いに対向する姿勢で底板部21からクリンパ62に向かって立ち上がっている。また、圧着される前の状態では、図8に示すように、一対の第2ワイヤーバレル部40,40は、互いに対向する姿勢で底板部21からクリンパ62に向かって立ち上がっている。
Next, as shown in FIG. 6, the splice terminal 20 is disposed on the anvil 61, and the exposed core wire 11 </ b> A and the core wire 12 </ b> A are disposed above the bottom plate portion 21 of the splice terminal 20. In a state before being crimped, as shown in FIG. 6, the pair of first wire barrel portions 30, 30 rises from the bottom plate portion 21 toward the crimper 62 in a posture facing each other. In a state before being crimped, as shown in FIG. 8, the pair of second wire barrel portions 40 and 40 rises from the bottom plate portion 21 toward the crimper 62 in a posture facing each other.
次にクリンパ62を下降させると一対の第1ワイヤーバレル部30,30及び一対の第2ワイヤーバレル部40,40の各々が、クリンパ62の側壁部62A及び天壁部62Bに突き当たり、天壁部62Bに形成された2つのU字溝62C,62Cに沿う形に湾曲していく。ワイヤーバレル部30,40が湾曲することで、ワイヤーバレル部30,40の立ち上がり端部が芯線11A,12A側に向きを変え、芯線11A,12Aに食い込む(図7及び図9参照)。
Next, when the crimper 62 is lowered, each of the pair of first wire barrel portions 30 and 30 and the pair of second wire barrel portions 40 and 40 comes into contact with the side wall portion 62A and the top wall portion 62B of the crimper 62, and the top wall portion. It curves in a shape along the two U-shaped grooves 62C and 62C formed in 62B. Since the wire barrel portions 30 and 40 are curved, the rising end portions of the wire barrel portions 30 and 40 are turned to the core wires 11A and 12A, and bite into the core wires 11A and 12A (see FIGS. 7 and 9).
これと同時に、芯線11A,12Aは、一対の第1ワイヤーバレル部30,30と底板部21によって圧縮されると共に、一対の第2ワイヤーバレル部40,40と底板部21によって圧縮される。このようにして、芯線11A,12Aに第1ワイヤーバレル部30及び第2ワイヤーバレル部40がそれぞれ圧着される。
At the same time, the core wires 11A and 12A are compressed by the pair of first wire barrel portions 30 and 30 and the bottom plate portion 21 and also compressed by the pair of second wire barrel portions 40 and 40 and the bottom plate portion 21. Thus, the 1st wire barrel part 30 and the 2nd wire barrel part 40 are crimped | bonded to core wire 11A, 12A, respectively.
本実施形態では、アンビル61及びクリンパ62の各断面形状は、図7及び図9に示すように、スプライス端子20の長手方向の全長に亘って同じ形状となっている。このため、圧着工程においてアンビル61とクリンパ62の間に形成される成形空間S2の断面形状は、スプライス端子20の長手方向(芯線11A,12Aの長さ方向)の全長に亘って同じ形状となっている。
In this embodiment, the cross-sectional shapes of the anvil 61 and the crimper 62 are the same throughout the entire length of the splice terminal 20 as shown in FIGS. For this reason, the cross-sectional shape of the molding space S2 formed between the anvil 61 and the crimper 62 in the crimping process is the same shape over the entire length in the longitudinal direction of the splice terminal 20 (the length direction of the core wires 11A and 12A). ing.
圧着後の一対の第1ワイヤーバレル部30及び一対の第2ワイヤーバレル部40の外形は、成形空間S2の形状に倣う形状となる。つまり、圧着後の一対の第1ワイヤーバレル部30の外形及び一対の第2ワイヤーバレル部40の外形は、ほぼ同じである。これに対して、本実施形態では、第1ワイヤーバレル部30の延出長さL1は第2ワイヤーバレル部40の延出長さL2に比べて大きい値で設定されている。
The outer shape of the pair of first wire barrel portions 30 and the pair of second wire barrel portions 40 after the crimping has a shape that follows the shape of the molding space S2. That is, the outer shape of the pair of first wire barrel portions 30 after crimping and the outer shape of the pair of second wire barrel portions 40 are substantially the same. On the other hand, in this embodiment, the extension length L1 of the first wire barrel part 30 is set to a larger value than the extension length L2 of the second wire barrel part 40.
このため、芯線11A,12Aにおいて、一対の第1ワイヤーバレル部30,30によって圧縮された部分の断面積(図7参照)は、一対の第2ワイヤーバレル部40,40によって圧縮された部分の断面積(図9参照)よりも小さくなる。つまり、一対の第1ワイヤーバレル部30,30は、一対の第2ワイヤーバレル部40,40(低圧縮部)に比べて芯線11A,12Aを高圧縮する高圧縮部となっている。なお、ここで言う高圧縮とは、(圧縮後の芯線の断面積)/(圧縮前の芯線の断面積)×100(%)を圧縮率とした場合において、圧縮率の値がより小さいことを意味する。
For this reason, in core wire 11A, 12A, the cross-sectional area (refer FIG. 7) of the part compressed by a pair of 1st wire barrel part 30 and 30 is a part of the part compressed by a pair of 2nd wire barrel part 40,40. It becomes smaller than the cross-sectional area (see FIG. 9). That is, the pair of first wire barrel portions 30 and 30 is a high compression portion that highly compresses the core wires 11A and 12A compared to the pair of second wire barrel portions 40 and 40 (low compression portion). The high compression mentioned here means that the compression ratio is smaller when (compression area of core wire after compression) / (cross-sectional area of core wire before compression) × 100 (%) is the compression ratio. Means.
次に、本実施形態の効果について説明する。一対の第1ワイヤーバレル部30,30と一対の第2ワイヤーバレル部40,40とを圧着治具60で一括して圧着すると、延出長さが大きい一対の第1ワイヤーバレル部30,30が、一対の第2ワイヤーバレル部40,40に比べて、芯線11A,12Aをより強く圧縮することになる。この結果、一対の第1ワイヤーバレル部30,30(高圧縮部)によって圧縮される部分においては、芯線11A,12Aの表面の酸化被膜が破壊され、新生面が露出することで、芯線11A,12A間の電気抵抗、及び芯線11A,12Aとスプライス端子20との間の電気抵抗を小さくすることができる。一方、一対の第2ワイヤーバレル部40,40(低圧縮部)においては、比較的弱い圧縮力で芯線11A,12Aを圧縮することになるため、芯線の損傷をより確実に抑制することができ、スプライス端子20の芯線11A,12Aに対する保持力を確保することができる。
Next, the effect of this embodiment will be described. When the pair of first wire barrel portions 30 and 30 and the pair of second wire barrel portions 40 and 40 are collectively crimped by the crimping jig 60, the pair of first wire barrel portions 30 and 30 having a large extension length. However, compared with a pair of 2nd wire barrel parts 40 and 40, core wire 11A, 12A is compressed more strongly. As a result, in the portion compressed by the pair of first wire barrel portions 30 and 30 (high compression portion), the oxide film on the surface of the core wires 11A and 12A is destroyed and the new surface is exposed, whereby the core wires 11A and 12A. The electrical resistance between the core wires 11A and 12A and the splice terminal 20 can be reduced. On the other hand, since the core wires 11A and 12A are compressed with a relatively weak compressive force in the pair of second wire barrel portions 40 and 40 (low compression portions), damage to the core wires can be more reliably suppressed. The holding force of the splice terminal 20 with respect to the core wires 11A and 12A can be ensured.
このように、上記構成によれば、従来の圧着工程と同様の工程で高圧縮部を設けることができる。このため、高圧縮部を設けるためにワイヤーバレルに他のバレル部を重ねる作業を行うことなく、芯線に対する保持力を確保しつつ、芯線に係る電気抵抗を小さくすることができる。また、ワイヤーバレルに他のバレル部を重ねる構成では、ワイヤーバレルと他のバレル部とを継手部で連結する必要がある。このため、ワイヤーバレルにおいて継手部が重なる部分は、高圧縮部になってしまう。つまり、所定の箇所のみに高圧縮部を設けることが困難となる。これに対して、本実施形態では、所定の箇所のみを高圧縮部にすることができる。
Thus, according to the above configuration, the high compression portion can be provided in the same process as the conventional crimping process. For this reason, the electrical resistance concerning a core wire can be made small, ensuring the retention strength with respect to a core wire, without performing the operation | work which overlaps another barrel part on a wire barrel in order to provide a high compression part. Moreover, in the structure which overlaps another barrel part on a wire barrel, it is necessary to connect a wire barrel and another barrel part with a coupling part. For this reason, the part which a joint part overlaps in a wire barrel will turn into a high compression part. That is, it is difficult to provide a high compression portion only at a predetermined location. On the other hand, in this embodiment, only a predetermined part can be made into a high compression part.
また、本実施形態のスプライス端子20は、本線11の中間部において露出された芯線11Aと、分岐線12の芯線12Aと、を接続するものであって、一対の第2ワイヤーバレル部40,40は、芯線11Aの延び方向において、一対の第1ワイヤーバレル部30,30の両側に1組ずつ配されている。
Further, the splice terminal 20 of the present embodiment connects the core wire 11A exposed at the intermediate portion of the main wire 11 and the core wire 12A of the branch wire 12, and is a pair of second wire barrel portions 40, 40. Are arranged on both sides of the pair of first wire barrel portions 30 in the extending direction of the core wire 11A.
本線11の中間部に分岐線12を接続した場合、接続部分である芯線11A,12Aには、本線11における延び方向の両側からそれぞれ荷重が作用することが考えられる。上記構成のように、比較的弱い圧縮力で芯線を圧縮する一対の第2ワイヤーバレル部40,40を一対の第1ワイヤーバレル部30,30の両側に配することで、本線11における延び方向の両側からそれぞれ荷重が作用した場合において、芯線の損傷をより確実に回避することができる。
When the branch line 12 is connected to the middle part of the main line 11, it is conceivable that loads are applied to the core lines 11 </ b> A and 12 </ b> A that are connection parts from both sides in the extending direction of the main line 11. As in the above-described configuration, the pair of second wire barrel portions 40 and 40 that compress the core wire with a relatively weak compressive force are arranged on both sides of the pair of first wire barrel portions 30 and 30, thereby extending in the main line 11. In the case where loads are applied from both sides, damage to the core wire can be avoided more reliably.
また、芯線11A,12Aがアルミニウム又はアルミニウム合金からなる場合、芯線の表面には酸化被膜(絶縁性の被膜)が比較的形成されやすい。本実施形態では高圧縮部を設けることで酸化被膜を破壊することができるため、芯線11A,12Aがアルミニウム又はアルミニウム合金である場合に有効である。
Further, when the core wires 11A, 12A are made of aluminum or an aluminum alloy, an oxide film (insulating film) is relatively easily formed on the surface of the core wire. In this embodiment, since the oxide film can be broken by providing the high compression portion, it is effective when the core wires 11A and 12A are aluminum or an aluminum alloy.
また、本実施形態では、第1ワイヤーバレル部30と第2ワイヤーバレル部40の間に隙間S1が生じ、その分だけスプライス端子20の長さが大きくなる。スプライス端子は、ハウジングに収容せずに用いる場合が多く、ハウジングに収容することを前提とした圧着端子に比べて長さの制約が少ないことから、本実施形態の構成を容易に適用することができる。
Further, in the present embodiment, a gap S1 is generated between the first wire barrel portion 30 and the second wire barrel portion 40, and the length of the splice terminal 20 is increased accordingly. The splice terminal is often used without being accommodated in the housing, and the length of the splice terminal is less limited than that of the crimp terminal that is assumed to be accommodated in the housing. Therefore, the configuration of this embodiment can be easily applied. it can.
また、圧着端子において高圧縮部を形成する方法としては、例えば、高圧縮部にしたい部分においては、アンビルとクリンパの間隔を部分的に小さくする方法が考えられる。しかしながら、このような方法では、クリンパの構造が複雑になってしまいコストが増大する。本実施形態では、第1ワイヤーバレル部30の長さを変えることで高圧縮部を設けることができるから、クリンパの構造を変える必要がなく、好適である。
Further, as a method of forming the high compression portion in the crimp terminal, for example, in a portion where the high compression portion is desired, a method of partially reducing the interval between the anvil and the crimper is conceivable. However, in such a method, the structure of the crimper becomes complicated and the cost increases. In this embodiment, since the high compression part can be provided by changing the length of the 1st wire barrel part 30, it is not necessary to change the structure of a crimper, and is suitable.

And a connection part 123 that is fitted and electrically connected to a male terminal (not shown). In FIG. 10, only one barrel portion 122, 130, 140 of the pair of barrel portions 122, 130, 140 is illustrated.
本実施形態では、低圧縮部である一対の第2ワイヤーバレル部140が、一対の第1ワイヤーバレル部130に比べて、電線111が引き出される側(図10の右側)に配されている。これにより、電線111に荷重が作用した場合において、芯線の損傷をより確実に回避することができる。
In the present embodiment, the pair of second wire barrel portions 140 that are low compression portions are arranged on the side from which the electric wire 111 is drawn (on the right side in FIG. 10) as compared to the pair of first wire barrel portions 130. Thereby, when a load acts on the electric wire 111, damage to the core wire can be avoided more reliably.
