The female part 1 is temporarily fixed to the mounting hole H, and the male part 2 is pressed into the female part 1 to thereby permanently fix the female part 1 and the mounting hole H. In this fully-clamped state, two or more members are used to connect or link via the connecting tool R.
The female part 1 has a head 10 and a leg 11, and is configured to have an internal space 12 that is open on the head 10 side and continues to the leg 11 side. That is, at least a part of the female part 1 is configured to have a cylindrical shape.
In the illustrated example, the female part 1 is configured such that the leg 11 has a rectangular cylindrical shape. Further, the female part 1 is configured such that the head 10 has a disk shape. A substantially rectangular opening 10a is formed substantially at the center of the disk-shaped head 10. The leg 11 has an internal space 12 that communicates with the opening 10a and extends to a substantially middle position in the length direction of the leg 11. The leg portion 11 has four outer surface portions, and the inner space 12 is formed by four inner wall portions. The leg portion 11 has a substantially rectangular outer cross-sectional shape, and has an inner space 12. Is formed so that the inner contour shape at the location where is formed is substantially rectangular.
In the example shown in the figure, the female part 1 has a rectangular mounting hole H formed in the panel P or the like, from the tip end of the leg 11 to a position where the head 10 is hooked in the mounting hole H. The outer surface of the leg 11 corresponding to each hole edge of the mounting hole H can be inserted in a facing direction. In particular, in the illustrated example, a positioning rib 13 is formed on a pair of outer surface portions of the leg portion 11 at back-to-back positions, the positioning rib 13 extending toward the tip end side of the leg portion 11 by integrally joining the upper end to the head 10. The legs 11 can be inserted into the mounting holes H only in a direction in which the positioning ribs 13 pass through and pass through the positioning recesses Ha formed in the corresponding hole edges of the mounting holes H.
The female part 1 has a hook 11a on the outer surface of the leg 11 thereof. In the illustrated example, a pair of outer surface portions of the leg portions 11 in a back-to-back direction, in which the inner space 12 is arranged inward on the outer surface portions where the positioning ribs 13 are not provided, that is, Each of the engaging projections 11a is formed at a position between a position substantially in the middle in the length direction of the leg 11 and the head 10.
The female part 1 elastically moves the formation portion of the engaging projection 11a toward the internal space 12 by pressing the engaging projection 11a toward the mounting hole H as the leg 11 is inserted into the mounting hole H. So that at least the engaging projection 11a is allowed to be inserted into the mounting hole H up to a position before the hole edge on the side where the mounting hole H is inserted. I have.
In the illustrated example, a pair of vertical split grooves 11e, 11e formed along the length direction of the leg 11 and a lower end of the pair of vertical split grooves 11e, 11e (between the head 10 side and Such an engaging projection 11a is provided on an outer surface portion divided by a lateral split groove 11f formed at a position substantially in the middle of the length of the leg 11 over the opposite groove end). That is, in the illustrated example, an elastic piece 11g whose upper end is integrally connected to the head 10 side is formed on the leg 11 by the pair of vertical split grooves 11e, 11e and the horizontal split groove 11f. In addition, the engaging projection 11a is formed outside the elastic piece 11g.
The engaging projection 11a has an engaging surface 11b facing the head 10 side. Further, the space between the hooking surface 11b and the head 10 is configured to be substantially equal to the thickness of the member in which the mounting hole H is formed, in the illustrated example, the panel P. Also, the distance between the protruding ends 11c of the engaging projections 11a formed on both sides of the leg 11 is the distance between the mounting holes H facing the outer surface of the leg 11 provided with the engaging projection 11a. It is configured to be slightly larger than the interval between the edges.
As a result, when the operation of inserting the leg portion 11 of the female part 1 into the mounting hole H is performed, the engaging protrusion 11a abuts on the hole edge of the mounting hole H. Since the formation location is elastically bent toward the inner space 12, the insertion of the leg 11 into the mounting hole H is allowed. When the leg 11 is inserted from this state to a position where the engaging protrusion 11a is located ahead of the hole edge on the side where the mounting hole H is inserted, the formation portion of the engaging protrusion 11a is resilient. The member having the mounting hole H is clamped between the head 10 and the engaging projection 11a, and the female part 1, that is, the connecting tool R is temporarily fastened to this member.
In the illustrated example, an inclined surface 11d that gradually increases as approaching the protruding end 11c of the engaging protrusion 11a is formed on the side of the engaging protrusion 11a facing the tip of the leg 11. The inclined surface 11d allows the elastic projection 11g to be smoothly bent at the location where the engaging projection 11a is formed when the leg 11 is inserted into the mounting hole H, that is, the elastic piece 11g is smoothly bent.
On the other hand, the male part 2 has a pressing head 20 and a leg 21 inserted into the internal space 12 of the female part 1.
The insertion leg portion 21 is configured to have an outer shape following the inner shape of the internal space 12 of the female part 1, and in the illustrated example, the insertion leg portion 21 has a cross section having four outer surface portions. The surface shape is configured to be substantially rectangular. In the illustrated example, the insertion leg portion 21 is configured to have a rectangular cylindrical shape with both cylinder ends opened, and a space 21 a to be described later is formed by the inside of the insertion leg portion 21. .
The pressing head 20 includes a main body 20a having a disk shape, and arms 20b projecting laterally on both sides in the diameter direction of the main body 20a. An opening 20f communicating with the inside of the insertion leg 21 is formed substantially at the center of the main body 20a.
Further, on the tip side of the insertion leg portion 21 of the male part 2 (that is, on the side opposite to the pressing head 20), a first engagement portion 21b with the inner wall portion of the female part 1 is provided. On the base side of the insertion leg portion 21, a second engagement portion 21 d with the inner wall portion of the female part 1 is provided.
The first engaging portion 21b engages with the inner wall portion of the female part 1 in a state where the insertion leg portion 21 of the male part 2 is slightly inserted into the internal space 12 of the female part 1, and connects the male part 2 and the female part 1 to each other. It is provided for temporary assembly. That is, the first engaging portion 21b connects the male part 2 and the female part 1 until the insertion leg 21 of the male part 2 is completely inserted into the internal space 12 of the female part 1 and a final fastening state described later is created. This is to prevent separation.
In the illustrated example, the first hooking portion 21b is a pair of outer surface portions of the four outer surface portions constituting the insertion leg portion 21 of the male part 2 facing back to back, and the tip of the insertion leg portion 21 Part is formed.
In the illustrated example, the first engaging portion 21b is constituted by a pair of rib-like bodies 21c, 21c extending along the length direction of the insertion leg portion 21.
The rib-like body 21c is configured to have a width to fit into the vertical split groove 11e in the leg 11 of the female part 1, and the interval between the pair of rib-like bodies 21c, 21c is It is configured to be substantially equal to the interval between the pair of vertical split grooves 11e, 11e in one leg 11. In the illustrated example, the insertion leg 21 of the male part 2 is inserted from the opening 10a of the female part 1, and the outer surface of the insertion leg 21 provided with the first engagement portion 21b is engaged with the engagement projection. By inserting the female part 1 inwardly facing the inner wall of the leg 11 of the female part 1 in the direction facing the inner part 11a, the rib-like body 21c enters the vertical split groove 11e mainly due to elastic deformation of the male part 2 side. The upper end of the rib-like body 21c is hooked on the upper end of the vertical split groove 11e by elastic return after entering. As a result, the male part 2 and the female part 1 are temporarily assembled. (FIGS. 2 and 3) Specifically, in the illustrated example, the pair of outer surfaces of the male part 2 provided with the first engaging portions 21b are not provided with the first engaging portions 21b. The distal end is located forward of the pair of outer surface portions, and the protruding portion is elastically deformed inward with the insertion of the male part 2 into the female part 1 so that the vertical split groove is formed. The rib-like body 21c is inserted into 11e.
In the illustrated example, the male part 2 in which the rib-like portion is hooked on the vertically-oriented split groove 11e of the female part 1 has its tip located at the base side of the elastic piece 11g, The male part 2 temporarily assembled in this way does not prevent the elastic piece 11g of the female part 1 from bending inward. In the example shown in the figure, the tip of the insertion leg 21 on which the rib-shaped portion of the male part 2 is formed is inclined toward the lower end of the rib-shaped body 21c so as to narrow the insertion leg 21. A surface 21f is provided so that the elastic piece 11g of the female part 1 in the temporarily assembled state does not further obstruct the inward bending.
In the illustrated example, in the temporarily assembled state, the second engaging portion 21d comes into contact with the edge of the open portion 10a of the female part 1 from above, and the male part is shifted from the position in the temporarily assembled state. The male part 2 is prevented from unexpectedly moving to a position where the male part 2 is inserted into the female part 1.
The second engaging portion 21d is configured to elastically engage with the inner wall of the female part 1 by pushing the male part 2 into the female part 1 from the temporarily assembled state. Then, by pushing the male part 2 to the position where the second engaging part 21d is engaged, the insertion leg 21 of the male part 2 prevents the female part 1 from bending into the engaging projection 11a. ing.
In the illustrated example, the second engaging portion 21d is a pair of outer surface portions facing the back of the four outer surface portions constituting the inserting leg portion 21 of the male part 2, and the first engaging portion 21b is provided. It is formed on the base side of the insertion leg 21 on the outer surface that is not provided.
In the illustrated example, the second engaging portion 21d has a lower end located above the upper end of the rib-like body 21c constituting the first engaging portion 21b of the insertion leg portion 21, and has the upper end of the pressing head 20. It is configured as a raised portion 21e that is configured to be positioned below and to gradually increase the amount of protrusion from the outer surface portion from the lower end to the upper end. The distance between the maximum protrusion positions of the pair of raised portions 21e, 21e is larger than the distance between the opposed inner wall portions of the female part 1 located inside the outer wall portion where the engaging protrusion 11a is not formed. It is slightly larger.
In the illustrated example, in the temporary assembly state, the lower end side of the raised portion 21e abuts on the edge of the open portion 10a of the female part 1 from above.
The force required for elastically engaging the second engaging portion 21d of the male part 2 is greater than the force required for elastically deforming the engaging protrusion 11a of the female part 1.
That is, in the example shown in the figure, the insertion part 21 of the male part 2 is pushed into the leg part 11 of the female part 1 completely from the temporary assembly state, thereby mainly deforming the male part 2 side elastically to perform the second engagement. The portion 21d, that is, the raised portion 21e is pressed against the inner wall portion of the female part 1 so that the pushed-in state is maintained.
When the male part 2 is pushed into the female part 1 as described above, the male part 2 that has further entered the female part 1 from the temporarily assembled state inwardly forms the engaging projection 11 a of the female part 1. Is prevented from inward. As a result, the female part 1 temporarily fixed in the mounting hole H as described above is permanently fixed to the mounting hole H. (FIGS. 4 and 5)
In this embodiment, the force required for elastically engaging the second engaging portion 21d of the male part 2 is greater than the force required for elastically deforming the engaging protrusion 11a of the female part 1. Specifically, in the illustrated example, the rigidity of the portion where the second engaging portion 21d is formed is higher than the rigidity of the elastic piece 11g in which the engaging protrusion 11a is formed.
As a result, in this embodiment, when the female part 1 is inserted into the mounting hole H of the member having the mounting hole H and the female part 1 is temporarily fastened by the engaging projection 11a, the male part 2 is pressed. This temporary fastening can be made while pressing the head 20 for use.
Then, after securing a state where the female part 1 can be permanently fixed to the mounting hole H, a pressing force is applied to the pressing head 20 of the male part 2 to create a fully-clamped state.
In the illustrated example, the second hooking portion 21d is pressed by the male part 2 into the inner wall of the female part 1 due to the elastic deformation mainly on the male part 2 side by pushing the male part 2 as described above. Since it is designed to be hooked on the inner wall, even after the final fastening state, if the male part 2 is pulled out from the female part 1 by gripping the pressing head 20 of the male part 2, The final fastening state can be released. This makes it unnecessary to forcibly pull out the female part 1 from the mounting hole H when it is necessary to release the final fastening, such as damage to the engaging projection 11a and damage to the mounting hole H due to such forcible pulling. Has the feature of not causing any problem.
However, in this embodiment, the second engaging portion 21d is attached to one of the pressing head 20 of the male part 2 and the head 10 of the female part 1 from the temporarily assembled state to the inner wall of the female part 1. With the operation of pushing the male part 2 into the position where the male part 2 is engaged with the male part 2, the permanent fastening state is maintained elastically engaged with the other of the pressing head 20 of the male part 2 and the head 10 of the female part 1. A portion 20c is provided.
As a result, the permanent fastening state can be prevented from being released unless the engagement of the retaining engagement portion 20c is released.
In the example shown in the figure, the retaining engagement portion 20c is provided on the pressing head 20 of the male part 2.
Specifically, at the tip of an arm 20b projecting sideways from the main body 20a of the pressing head 20, a projection 20d is provided from the tip toward the tip of the insertion leg 21. A protruding portion 20e is provided at the tip of the protruding portion 20d toward the outer surface of the insertion leg portion 21 in which the second engaging portion 21d is formed, and the male part 2 is inserted into the female part 1 from the temporary assembly state. Along with performing the pushing-in operation, the protruding portion 20e is pressed against the edge of the head 10 of the female part 1, and the arm portion 20b moves the protruding portion 20e outward by this pressing. The tip of the tip 20b is elastically deformed so as to slightly warp upward. Then, the protrusion 20e enters the back side of the head 10 of the female part 1 due to the elastic deformation of the arm 20b, and the protrusion 20e returns to the position The back of the head 10 is caught. That is, in the illustrated example, the protruding portion 20e functions as the maintaining engagement portion 20c.
In this state where the protruding portion 20e is engaged with the head 10 of the female part 1, a driver or the like is placed between the arm 20b and the head 10 of the female part 1 so that the arm 20b is warped upward again. It can be released by inserting and elastically deforming the arm portion 20b.
Further, in this embodiment, as described above, the second engaging portion 21d of the male part 2 is provided as a raised portion 21e formed on the outer surface of the insertion leg portion 21, and the insertion leg portion 21 has A cavity 21a is formed to allow the portion where the raised portion 21e is formed to be elastically bent.
Thus, in this embodiment, the male part 2 can be smoothly pushed into the female part 1 while elastically deforming the male part 2 mainly from the temporary assembled state.
In the illustrated example, of the four outer surface portions of the insertion leg portion 11 of the male part 2, the upper end of the rib-like body 21 c that becomes the first engagement portion 21 b on the outer surface portion where the first engagement portion 21 b is formed. Two split grooves 21g, 21g are formed between the pressing head 20 and the part where the second engaging portion 21d is formed. It is easy to do.
Providing a desired elastic deformation characteristic to a necessary portion of the connector R having the above-described configuration is achieved by forming the male part 2 and the female part 1 constituting the connector R into a plastic molded product using a synthetic resin. Can be secured.
In the illustrated example, the outer surface of the leg 11 of the female part 1 and its tip side, specifically, a portion ahead of the location where the internal space 12 is formed, is covered with a soft synthetic resin. In this manner, the tip side on which the coating portion 14 is formed is inserted into the long hole 201 which needs to be linked with the member provided with the mounting hole H, and the member provided with the mounting hole H The member provided with the elongated hole 201 is linked and combined.
The connecting tool R described above can be used, for example, for fastening two panels P having mounting holes H communicating with each other.
The member having the mounting hole H and the member having the elongated hole 201 communicating with the mounting hole H are linked so that the former moves regularly along the latter elongated hole 201. Can be used to combine.
Further, with the connecting member R, a mounting structure of the box body 100 as shown in FIG. 1 can be provided.
Such a mounting structure opens the upper part and is rotatably assembled to the fixed side panel 200 at the side part 101, and the leg part 11 of the female part 1 of the connecting tool R is attached to the side part 101 from the inside of the box. A mounting structure of the box body 100 having a mounting hole H to be inserted therein,
An elongated hole 201 is formed in the fixed panel 200 along the rotation locus of the box body 100 into which the leg 11 of the female part 1 inserted through the mounting hole H enters.
In the example shown in FIG. 1, the box body 100 includes a shaft hole provided in the fixed side panel 200 indicated by reference numeral 202 in the same figure and a shaft hole provided in the side portion 101 of the box body 100. The box body 100 is rotatably assembled to the fixed panel 200 by inserting a shaft (not shown) into the box 102.
In such a mounting structure, first, the connecting tool R is inserted into the mounting hole H on the box body 100 side from the inside of the box body 100 and temporarily fastened, and temporarily inserted into the elongated hole 201 of the fixed side panel 200 in this manner. After confirming that the front end side of the female part 1 of the fastened connector R is properly inserted, the box 100 is pivotally connected to the fixed-side panel 200 so as to permanently fasten the connector R. Further, by causing the connector R to abut on the front end of the elongated hole 201, the connector R can also serve as a stopper for the box body 100. Even in the case where the box body 100 needs to be removed, the main fastening state can be easily achieved by uncoupling the retaining portion 20c from the inside of the box body 100 and extracting the male part 2 from the female part 1. Can be removed to make this removal.
According to the connecting device of the present invention, even when the work of inserting the female part into the mounting hole and temporarily fixing the female part to the mounting hole is performed by pressing the pressing head of the male part, As long as the pressing is performed with enough force to elastically deform the engaging projection of the female part and engage with the mounting hole, the male part is not pushed into the female part and cut off by this temporary fixing pressure Further, it is possible to prevent a situation in which the connecting tool is unexpectedly permanently fixed to the mounting hole as much as possible.
