Description

本発明は、アルミニウム製またはアルミニウム合金製の複数の素線が撚り合わされた導体部を有するアルミ電線に圧着されるアルミ電線用圧着端子に関する。   The present invention relates to a crimp terminal for an aluminum wire that is crimped to an aluminum wire having a conductor portion in which a plurality of strands made of aluminum or aluminum alloy are twisted together.

自動車等の車両に配索されるワイヤハーネスには銅電線が一般に使用されている。そして、ワイヤハーネス同士、あるいはワイヤハーネスと車載機器との接続にあたり、ワイヤハーネスの銅電線には端子が取り付けられる。そして、この種の端子は、一般に圧着によって銅電線に取り付けられている。   Copper wires are generally used for wire harnesses routed in vehicles such as automobiles. And a terminal is attached to the copper electric wire of a wire harness in connection between wire harnesses or a wire harness and vehicle equipment. And this kind of terminal is generally attached to the copper electric wire by crimping.

銅電線に圧着される端子は、例えば銅合金等の導電性の板材を所定の形状に打ち出し、これを折り曲げ加工して形成され、典型的には断面略U字状に成形されたバレルを備えている。バレルは、銅製の複数の素線を撚り合わせてなる銅電線の導体部を抱え込み、導体部に加締め付けられる。それにより、銅電線と端子とが圧着される。   A terminal to be crimped to a copper electric wire is formed by punching a conductive plate material such as a copper alloy into a predetermined shape and bending it, and typically includes a barrel formed in a substantially U-shaped cross section. ing. The barrel holds a conductor portion of a copper electric wire formed by twisting a plurality of copper wires, and is crimped to the conductor portion. Thereby, a copper electric wire and a terminal are crimped | bonded.

ところで近年、銅資源の不足に加え、車両の軽量化やリサイクルの容易性を考慮して、アルミ電線が注目されている。しかしながら、アルミニウムは銅に比べて表面に形成される酸化皮膜が厚い。そのため、アルミ電線の導体部と端子のバレルとの間の接触抵抗は比較的高くなる傾向にある。   By the way, in recent years, aluminum wires have been attracting attention in consideration of the shortage of copper resources and the weight reduction of vehicles and the ease of recycling. However, aluminum has a thicker oxide film formed on the surface than copper. Therefore, the contact resistance between the conductor portion of the aluminum electric wire and the terminal barrel tends to be relatively high.

接触抵抗の低減について、バレルを導体部に強く加締め付けて導体部の圧縮率を高くする方法が知られている。これによれば、導体部を構成する各素線の酸化皮膜が破壊され、導体部とバレルとの間の接触抵抗が低減される。尚、本明細書において、導体部の圧縮率とは、圧着前の導体部の断面積に対する圧着後の導体部の断面積の比として規定される。   As a method for reducing contact resistance, a method is known in which a barrel is strongly swaged to a conductor portion to increase the compressibility of the conductor portion. According to this, the oxide film of each strand which comprises a conductor part is destroyed, and the contact resistance between a conductor part and a barrel is reduced. In the present specification, the compression ratio of the conductor portion is defined as the ratio of the cross-sectional area of the conductor portion after crimping to the cross-sectional area of the conductor portion before crimping.

しかしながら、導体部の圧縮率を高くすることに伴い導体部に作用する応力も高くなる。アルミニウムは銅に比べて機械的強度に劣り、アルミ電線では、導体部に過度の応力が作用すると、導体部とバレルとの圧着強度が著しく低下してしまう。   However, as the compressibility of the conductor portion increases, the stress acting on the conductor portion also increases. Aluminum is inferior in mechanical strength compared to copper, and in an aluminum electric wire, when excessive stress acts on the conductor portion, the crimping strength between the conductor portion and the barrel is significantly reduced.

接触抵抗の低減および圧着強度の確保のため、アルミ電線と端子との圧着に関し種々提案がなされている。例えば、導体部と接触するバレルの接触面に複数の凹溝を形成することが提案されている(例えば、特許文献1参照)。導体部が凹溝に食い込み、各素線の表面の酸化皮膜が破壊されて接触抵抗が低減され、また、導体部の抜けが防止される。また、バレルの接触面に導体部より軟質の粉末を分散させて、バレルの接触面と導体部とを凝着させるようにしたものも提案されている(例えば、特許文献2参照)。
特開2007−173215号公報 特開平8−321330号公報
Various proposals have been made regarding crimping of an aluminum electric wire and a terminal in order to reduce contact resistance and secure crimping strength. For example, it has been proposed to form a plurality of concave grooves on the contact surface of the barrel that contacts the conductor portion (see, for example, Patent Document 1). A conductor part bites into a ditch | groove, the oxide film of the surface of each strand is destroyed, contact resistance is reduced, and the dropout of a conductor part is prevented. In addition, there has been proposed one in which soft powder is dispersed from the conductor portion on the contact surface of the barrel so that the contact surface of the barrel and the conductor portion are adhered (for example, see Patent Document 2).
JP 2007-173215 A JP-A-8-321330

バレルの接触面と導体部とを凝着をせる場合にも、各素線の表面の酸化被膜を破壊して、各素線に新生面を露出させる必要がある。バレルの接触面に凹溝を形成することにより各素線の表面の酸化被膜を破壊することができるが、酸化被膜の破壊は主として凹溝のエッジ部分で生じており、酸化被膜の破壊が十分ではない。そして、接触面に凹溝が形成された従来のバレルで酸化被膜を十分に破壊するためには、導体部の圧縮率を高くする必要があり、圧着強度の低下が問題となる。   Even when the contact surface of the barrel and the conductor are adhered, it is necessary to break the oxide film on the surface of each strand and expose the new surface to each strand. By forming a groove on the contact surface of the barrel, the oxide film on the surface of each strand can be destroyed. However, the oxide film is broken mainly at the edge of the groove, and the oxide film is sufficiently broken. is not. In order to sufficiently destroy the oxide film with a conventional barrel having a concave groove formed on the contact surface, it is necessary to increase the compressibility of the conductor portion, which causes a problem of a decrease in pressure bonding strength.

本発明は、上述した事情に鑑みてなされたものであり、アルミ電線の導体部と端子のバレルとの接触抵抗の低減および圧着強度の確保を両立させることができるアルミ電線用圧着端子を提供することを目的とする。   This invention is made | formed in view of the situation mentioned above, and provides the crimp terminal for aluminum electric wires which can make reduction of the contact resistance of the conductor part of an aluminum electric wire and the barrel of a terminal, and ensuring of crimping | compression-bonding strength compatible. For the purpose.

Exposed.

そして、ワイヤーバレル13の接触面に形成された被膜と各素線3に露出した新生面との間には面圧下での摩擦が生じ、両者の間で凝着が生じる。凝着により、ワイヤーバレル13の被膜と各素線3の新生面とが原子レベルで結合する。それにより、良好な接触抵抗および結合強度が得られる。   And the friction under surface pressure arises between the film formed in the contact surface of the wire barrel 13, and the new surface exposed to each strand 3, and adhesion arises between both. By the adhesion, the coating of the wire barrel 13 and the new surface of each strand 3 are bonded at the atomic level. Thereby, good contact resistance and bond strength are obtained.

このように、本実施形態のアルミ電線用圧着端子10によれば、ワイヤーバレル13が加締め付けられて圧縮された導体部2は、溝部24に食い込み、そこを基点に溝部24の両側に伸ばされて、溝部24の両側に形成された斜面部25a、25bを摺動する。そして、斜面部25a、25bを摺動する際の摩擦によって、導体部2を構成する各素線3の表面の酸化被膜が破壊され、各素線3に新生面が露出する。これにより、導体部2の圧縮率を過度に高めることなく、各素線3の酸化被膜を十分に破壊して新生面を露出させることができる。そして、ワイヤーバレル13の接触面にはアルミニウムおよびアルミニウム合金に対して凝着作用を有する被膜が形成されており、各素線3に露出した新生面と被膜との間で凝着が生じ、良好な接触抵抗および圧着強度を得ることができる。   As described above, according to the crimp terminal 10 for an aluminum electric wire of the present embodiment, the conductor part 2 compressed by the crimping of the wire barrel 13 bites into the groove part 24 and is extended to both sides of the groove part 24 from that point. Then, it slides on the slope portions 25a, 25b formed on both sides of the groove portion 24. And the oxide film of the surface of each strand 3 which comprises the conductor part 2 is destroyed by the friction at the time of sliding the slope parts 25a and 25b, and a new surface is exposed to each strand 3. FIG. Thereby, the oxide film of each strand 3 can be fully destroyed and the new surface can be exposed without excessively increasing the compressibility of the conductor portion 2. And the coating which has an adhesion effect with respect to aluminum and aluminum alloy is formed in the contact surface of the wire barrel 13, and adhesion arises between the new surface exposed to each strand 3, and a coating, and it is favorable Contact resistance and pressure bonding strength can be obtained.
