　以下、図面を参照して、本発明の実施形態に係るコネクタ１について詳細に説明する。 Hereinafter, the connector 1 according to the embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings.
　図１に示すコネクタ１は、フラットケーブル１０を基板上の回路に接続するためのものである。コネクタ１は、フラットケーブル１０が挿入される間口３を有するハウジング２を備える。間口３は、ハウジング２の幅方向の一端部から他端部にかけて、所定の高さで水平に延びている。間口３の下縁部からは、図１，２に示すように、ハウジング２の前縁部にかけて支持部２１が延びている。 The connector 1 shown in FIG. 1 is for connecting the flat cable 10 to a circuit on a substrate. The connector 1 includes a housing 2 having an opening 3 into which a flat cable 10 is inserted. The frontage 3 extends horizontally at a predetermined height from one end to the other end in the width direction of the housing 2. As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, a support portion 21 extends from the lower edge portion of the frontage opening 3 to the front edge portion of the housing 2.
　ハウジング２の間口３が開口した面と反対側の面には、端子４の挿入口が形成されている。端子４は、上下一対の可撓片を備えており、挿入口からハウジング２内に装着される。端子４は、上下の可撓片でフラットケーブル１０を挟み込んで、フラットケーブル１０に形成された回路に接続される。 An insertion port for the terminal 4 is formed on the surface opposite to the surface where the opening 3 of the housing 2 is opened. The terminal 4 includes a pair of upper and lower flexible pieces and is mounted in the housing 2 from the insertion port. The terminal 4 is connected to a circuit formed in the flat cable 10 by sandwiching the flat cable 10 between upper and lower flexible pieces.
　ハウジング２の幅方向の両側面には、タブ５が取り付けられている。タブ５は、ハウジング２を基板に固定するためのものである。 Tabs 5 are attached to both side surfaces of the housing 2 in the width direction. The tab 5 is for fixing the housing 2 to the substrate.
　ハウジング２の上面には、間口３に連通した開口６が形成されている。開口６は、ハウジング２の幅方向の両端部に形成されて、方形の開口形状を有している。開口６は、間口３の幅方向の両端部に連通している。開口６の周囲には、リブ状の保護カバー７が形成されている。保護カバー７は、間口３の入口側に位置した開口６の縁部を除く開口６の縁部に沿って形成されている。図２に示すように、開口６の周縁と保護カバー７の形成位置との間には、所定の間隔が設けられている。 An opening 6 communicating with the frontage 3 is formed on the upper surface of the housing 2. The openings 6 are formed at both ends in the width direction of the housing 2 and have a square opening shape. The opening 6 communicates with both ends of the frontage 3 in the width direction. A rib-shaped protective cover 7 is formed around the opening 6. The protective cover 7 is formed along the edge of the opening 6 excluding the edge of the opening 6 located on the inlet side of the frontage 3. As shown in FIG. 2, a predetermined interval is provided between the periphery of the opening 6 and the position where the protective cover 7 is formed.
　図２に示すように、開口６の周縁部の間口３に対向した面には、係止部８が形成されている。係止部８は、ハウジング２と一体に形成されており、可撓性を有している。係止部８は、間口３の入口側から奥側（フラットケーブル１０の挿入方向）に向けて斜めに直線状に延びている。係止部８は、間口３に挿入されたフラットケーブル１０の先端に押圧されてフラットケーブル１０の挿入方向に沿って撓むよう、ハウジング２の開口６側の間口３の周縁の壁部に比べ、肉薄に形成されている。係止部８の先端は、間口３の入口側から奥側（フラットケーブル１０の挿入方向）に向けてフラットケーブル１０の挿入方向に平行に延びている。この係止部８の先端部の長さは、フラットケーブル１０が備える係止孔１１のフラットケーブル１０の挿入方向への長さよりもやや短くなっている。 As shown in FIG. 2, a locking portion 8 is formed on the surface of the opening 6 facing the front edge 3 of the peripheral portion. The locking portion 8 is formed integrally with the housing 2 and has flexibility. The locking portion 8 extends linearly obliquely from the entrance side of the frontage 3 toward the back side (the insertion direction of the flat cable 10). The locking portion 8 is pressed by the tip of the flat cable 10 inserted into the frontage 3 and is bent along the insertion direction of the flat cable 10 as compared to the peripheral wall portion of the frontage 3 on the opening 6 side of the housing 2. Thinly formed. The front end of the locking portion 8 extends in parallel with the insertion direction of the flat cable 10 from the entrance side of the frontage 3 toward the back side (in the insertion direction of the flat cable 10). The length of the distal end portion of the locking portion 8 is slightly shorter than the length of the locking hole 11 provided in the flat cable 10 in the insertion direction of the flat cable 10.
　係止部８には、係止解除レバー９が一体に形成されている。係止解除レバー９は、フラットケーブル１０の挿入方向に沿って操作されることで、係止部８を操作方向に撓ませる。係止解除レバー９は、係止部８の先端から開口６の入口にまで直線状に延びている。係止解除レバー９は、係止解除レバー９がレバー操作された際に、係止部８が撓んでも直線状の状態が保たれるようフラットケーブル１０の挿入方向の厚さが係止部８よりもやや肉厚に形成されている。係止解除レバー９の先端は、開口６から操作者が指で摘んで操作できるよう、保護カバー７の上面と同じ高さまで、開口６の外側に延びている。 A locking release lever 9 is formed integrally with the locking portion 8. The lock release lever 9 is operated along the insertion direction of the flat cable 10 to bend the lock portion 8 in the operation direction. The lock release lever 9 extends linearly from the tip of the lock portion 8 to the entrance of the opening 6. The locking release lever 9 has a thickness in the insertion direction of the flat cable 10 so that the linear state is maintained even when the locking portion 8 is bent when the locking release lever 9 is operated. It is formed slightly thicker than 8. The distal end of the unlocking lever 9 extends to the outside of the opening 6 to the same height as the upper surface of the protective cover 7 so that an operator can pick and operate the opening from the opening 6.
　次に、コネクタ１に対するフラットケーブル１０の挿入方法を説明する。 Next, a method for inserting the flat cable 10 into the connector 1 will be described.
　まず、図３，図４Ａに示すように、ハウジング２の支持部２１上にフラットケーブル１０の先端部を配置する。コネクタ１は、係止部８が間口３の下端まで延びており、係止解除レバー９が開口６内に向けて上方に延びている。図４Ｂに矢印で示すように、フラットケーブル１０がコネクタ１側に押し出されると、フラットケーブル１０の先端が間口３内に進入し、係止部８に当接する。 First, as shown in FIG. 3 and FIG. 4A, the distal end portion of the flat cable 10 is disposed on the support portion 21 of the housing 2. In the connector 1, the locking portion 8 extends to the lower end of the frontage 3, and the locking release lever 9 extends upward into the opening 6. As shown by an arrow in FIG. 4B, when the flat cable 10 is pushed out to the connector 1 side, the tip of the flat cable 10 enters the front opening 3 and comes into contact with the locking portion 8.
　係止部８は、フラットケーブル１０の先端により間口３の奥側に撓む。これに伴い、係止解除レバー９が揺動し、先端をフラットケーブル１０の挿入方向と逆方向に開口６内で移動させる。係止部８は、図４Ｃに示すように、フラットケーブル１０の係止孔１１が係止部８の下方まで移動してくると、撓みが解けて先端を係止孔１１内に進入させる。 The locking portion 8 bends to the back side of the frontage 3 by the tip of the flat cable 10. Along with this, the latch release lever 9 swings, and the tip is moved in the opening 6 in the direction opposite to the insertion direction of the flat cable 10. As shown in FIG. 4C, when the locking hole 11 of the flat cable 10 moves to a position below the locking portion 8, the locking portion 8 is released from bending and allows the tip to enter the locking hole 11.
　これにより、フラットケーブル１０の間口３の入口側への移動が係止部８により規制される。フラットケーブル１０は間口３内に突出した端子４の可撓片で挟まれ、フラットケーブル１０の回路が端子４に接続される。 Thereby, the movement of the front end 3 of the flat cable 10 to the entrance side is restricted by the locking portion 8. The flat cable 10 is sandwiched between flexible pieces of the terminals 4 protruding into the frontage 3, and the circuit of the flat cable 10 is connected to the terminals 4.
　次に、コネクタ１からのフラットケーブル１０の離脱方法を説明する。 Next, a method for detaching the flat cable 10 from the connector 1 will be described.
　まず、図５Ａに示す状態から、図５Ｂに矢印で示すように、係止解除レバー９の先端をフラットケーブル１０の挿入方向（係止解除方向）に移動させ、係止解除レバー９を揺動させる。これに伴い、係止部８が先端側を間口３の奥側に揺動させ、先端をフラットケーブル１０の係止孔１１の上方に移動させる。 First, from the state shown in FIG. 5A, the tip of the locking release lever 9 is moved in the insertion direction (locking release direction) of the flat cable 10 as shown by the arrow in FIG. 5B, and the locking release lever 9 is swung. Let Along with this, the locking portion 8 swings the tip side to the back side of the frontage 3 and moves the tip above the locking hole 11 of the flat cable 10.
　これにより、フラットケーブル１０が間口３の入口側に移動可能となる。この状態で、図５Ｂに矢印で示すようにフラットケーブル１０を間口３の入口側に引き抜くと、フラットケーブル１０が係止部８に移動を規制されずに間口３内を移動し、図５Ｃに示すようにコネクタ１から離脱する。 This enables the flat cable 10 to move to the entrance side of the frontage 3. In this state, when the flat cable 10 is pulled out to the entrance side of the frontage 3 as shown by an arrow in FIG. 5B, the flat cable 10 moves in the frontage 3 without being restricted by the locking portion 8, and FIG. As shown, the connector 1 is detached.
　本実施形態によれば、フラットケーブル１０の係止孔１１に係止する係止部８と、係止部８による係止を解除する係止解除レバー９とが一体となってハウジング２に形成されるので、コネクタ１の部品点数を削減することができる。 According to this embodiment, the locking portion 8 that locks in the locking hole 11 of the flat cable 10 and the locking release lever 9 that releases the locking by the locking portion 8 are integrally formed in the housing 2. Therefore, the number of parts of the connector 1 can be reduced.
　なお、上記実施形態では、フラットケーブル１０の幅方向の両端部に係止孔１１が形成されていたので、間口３の幅方向の両端部に係止部８及び係止解除レバー９が形成されている場合について説明した。しかしながら、ハウジング２に設ける係止部８及び係止解除レバー９の数量や位置は任意であり、係止孔１１の数量や位置に応じて定めることができる。 In the above embodiment, since the locking holes 11 are formed at both ends in the width direction of the flat cable 10, the locking portions 8 and the locking release lever 9 are formed at both ends in the width direction of the frontage 3. Explained the case. However, the number and position of the locking portion 8 and the locking release lever 9 provided in the housing 2 are arbitrary, and can be determined according to the number and position of the locking hole 11.
　また、上記実施形態では、係止解除レバー９が係止部８の端部から延びている場合について説明した。しかしながら、係止解除レバー９は、係止部８と一体に形成されて係止部８と共に撓めば良く、上記実施形態での構成には限定されない。また、上記実施形態では、開口６の周囲に保護カバー７が形成されている場合について説明したが、保護カバー７は必ずしも形成されていなくてもよい。 In the above embodiment, the case where the lock release lever 9 extends from the end of the lock portion 8 has been described. However, the lock release lever 9 may be formed integrally with the lock portion 8 and bend together with the lock portion 8, and is not limited to the configuration in the above embodiment. Moreover, although the said embodiment demonstrated the case where the protective cover 7 was formed around the opening 6, the protective cover 7 does not necessarily need to be formed.
