Description

本発明は、コネクタ装置に関する。   The present invention relates to a connector device.

近年、著しい進歩を遂げている所謂ハイブリッド車や電気自動車において、省エネルギー性能をさらに向上させることを目的に、全ての部品について軽量化が図られているが、軽量化を図る上で有効な手段の一つに部品の小型化が挙げられる。この小型化は、車両の走行用の駆動源としてのモータと、このモータに駆動電流を供給するインバータとの間、又はインバータとバッテリーとの間を接続する電力ハーネスの端部に設けられるコネクタ装置にも図られる。   In recent years, so-called hybrid vehicles and electric vehicles that have made significant progress have been made to reduce the weight of all parts for the purpose of further improving energy-saving performance. One is the downsizing of parts. This downsizing is a connector device provided at the end of a power harness that connects a motor as a drive source for driving a vehicle and an inverter that supplies a drive current to the motor, or between the inverter and a battery. Also planned.

また、この種のコネクタ装置には、車両の使用者等による不用意な分解（雄コネクタと雌コネクタの分離）が行われた際に、内部の端子に手指等が直接触れないようにするための構造であるタッチプロテクト構造を適用することが要請されている。このタッチプロテクト構造を適用したコネクタとして、特許文献１に記載のものが知られている。   In addition, in this type of connector device, in order to prevent fingers or the like from directly touching the internal terminals when the vehicle user or the like is inadvertently disassembled (separation of the male connector and the female connector). It is required to apply a touch protection structure which is a structure of A connector described in Patent Document 1 is known as a connector to which this touch protection structure is applied.

特許文献１に記載のコネクタは、第１コネクタ部と第２コネクタ部とを嵌合させると、第１コネクタ部の複数の第１接合端子、及び各第１接合端子に固定された複数の第１絶縁部材と、第２コネクタ部の複数の第２接合端子、及び各第２接合端子に固定された複数の第２絶縁部材とが互いに積み重なって積層構造となり、これらを押圧することにより第１接合端子と第２接合端子とが各接点で接触するように構成されている。   In the connector described in Patent Document 1, when the first connector portion and the second connector portion are fitted together, the plurality of first joint terminals of the first connector portion and the plurality of first joint terminals fixed to the respective first joint terminals. The first insulating member, the plurality of second connecting terminals of the second connector portion, and the plurality of second insulating members fixed to the second connecting terminals are stacked on each other to form a laminated structure. The junction terminal and the second junction terminal are configured to come into contact with each contact point.

特許文献１に記載のコネクタによれば、第１絶縁部材が第１接合端子に固定され、第２絶縁部材が第２接合端子に固定されているため、第１絶縁部材同士、又は第２絶縁部材同士の間隔を保持しておく保持部材を設ける必要がなく、小型化を図ることが可能である。また、第１コネクタ部と第２コネクタ部との非嵌合時にも、第１接合端子及び第２接合端子の先端部が剥き出しとならず、使用者等の手指等が接触することを避けることができる。   According to the connector disclosed in Patent Document 1, the first insulating member is fixed to the first joint terminal, and the second insulating member is fixed to the second joint terminal. There is no need to provide a holding member that holds the interval between the members, and the size can be reduced. Further, even when the first connector portion and the second connector portion are not fitted, the tips of the first joint terminal and the second joint terminal are not exposed and it is avoided that fingers of the user etc. come into contact with each other. Can do.

また、雄コネクタと雌コネクタとの嵌合により、雄コネクタの複数の端子と雌コネクタの複数の端子とが複数の絶縁片を介して積層構造となる接続構造として、特許文献２に記載のものが知られている。   Further, as a connection structure in which a plurality of terminals of a male connector and a plurality of terminals of a female connector are stacked through a plurality of insulating pieces by fitting a male connector and a female connector, those described in Patent Document 2 It has been known.

特許文献２に記載の雌コネクタは、雄コネクタと雌コネクタとの嵌合方向に沿った絶縁片の動きが、絶縁片に形成された溝とケース内に形成された突状との係合によって規制されると共に、ケース内における絶縁片の幅方向の動きが、絶縁片の係合片とケースとの接触により規制されている。   In the female connector described in Patent Document 2, the movement of the insulating piece along the fitting direction between the male connector and the female connector is caused by the engagement between the groove formed in the insulating piece and the protrusion formed in the case. The movement of the insulating piece in the width direction within the case is restricted by the contact between the engaging piece of the insulating piece and the case.

特許文献１に記載のコネクタでは、接合端子に接続されたケーブルに、このケーブルの延伸方向に沿った過剰な力が加わると、接合端子が動いてしまい、それに伴って絶縁部材の位置ずれが発生してしまうおそれがあった。そこで、本発明者らは、特許文献１に記載のコネクタに、特許文献２に記載の技術を適用することを考えた。   In the connector described in Patent Document 1, when an excessive force is applied to the cable connected to the joining terminal along the extending direction of the cable, the joining terminal moves, and accordingly, the displacement of the insulating member occurs. There was a risk of doing so. Therefore, the present inventors considered applying the technique described in Patent Document 2 to the connector described in Patent Document 1.

しかし、特許文献１に記載のコネクタに特許文献２に記載の技術を適用したとしても、絶縁片にケースと接触する係合片を形成する必要があるため、この係合片の分だけコネクタが大型化してしまうという問題があった。   However, even if the technique described in Patent Document 2 is applied to the connector described in Patent Document 1, it is necessary to form an engaging piece that contacts the case on the insulating piece. There was a problem of increasing the size.

雄コネクタ２は、雄側ハウジング２０内に、第１〜第３の電線１１〜１３の一端に接続された第１〜第３の接触端子１１０，１２０，１３０を収納している。 (Configuration of male connector 2)
The male connector 2 houses the first to third contact terminals 110, 120, and 130 connected to one ends of the first to third electric wires 11 to 13 in the male housing 20.

第１〜第３の電線１１〜１３は、芯線１１１，１２１，１３１の外周を絶縁体からなるシース１１２，１２２，１３２で被覆してなり、第１〜第３の電線１１〜１３の一端では、シース１１２，１２２，１３２が除去されて芯線１１１，１２１，１３１が露出している。第１〜第３の接触端子１１０，１２０，１３０は、その一端に形成された接続部１１０ａ，１２０ａ，１３０ａに、露出した芯線１１１，１２１，１３１が圧着によって接続されている。   The first to third electric wires 11 to 13 are formed by covering the outer periphery of the core wires 111, 121, and 131 with sheaths 112, 122, and 132 made of an insulator, and at one end of the first to third electric wires 11 to 13, respectively. The sheaths 112, 122, and 132 are removed, and the core wires 111, 121, and 131 are exposed. The exposed core wires 111, 121, and 131 are connected to the connecting portions 110a, 120a, and 130a formed at one end of the first to third contact terminals 110, 120, and 130 by crimping.

第１〜第３の接触端子１１０，１２０，１３０における他端（接続部１１０ａ，１２０ａ，１３０ａとは反対側の端部）には、平板状の接触部１１０ｂ，１２０ｂ，１３０ｂが形成されている。第１〜第３の接触端子１１０，１２０，１３０は、接触部１１０ｂ，１２０ｂ，１３０ｂが互いに平行になるように、雄側ハウジング２０に保持されている。   Flat contact portions 110b, 120b, and 130b are formed at the other ends of the first to third contact terminals 110, 120, and 130 (the ends opposite to the connection portions 110a, 120a, and 130a). . The first to third contact terminals 110, 120, and 130 are held by the male housing 20 so that the contact portions 110b, 120b, and 130b are parallel to each other.

また、第１〜第３の接触端子１１０，１２０，１３０には、接続部１１０ａ，１２０ａ，１３０ａと接触部１１０ｂ，１２０ｂ，１３０ｂとの間に、突起部１１０ｃ，１２０ｃ，１３０ｃが形成されている。この突起部１１０ｃ，１２０ｃ，１３０ｃは、雄側ハウジング２０と雌側ハウジング３０との嵌合方向（図２，３の左右方向）に対して直交する方向に突出して形成されている。   In addition, the first to third contact terminals 110, 120, and 130 are formed with protrusions 110c, 120c, and 130c between the connection portions 110a, 120a, and 130a and the contact portions 110b, 120b, and 130b. . The protrusions 110c, 120c, and 130c are formed so as to protrude in a direction orthogonal to the fitting direction (the left-right direction in FIGS. 2 and 3) between the male housing 20 and the female housing 30.

また、雄側ハウジング２０は、第１〜第３の接触端子１１０，１２０，１３０のそれぞれに対応して設けられた３つの絶縁体４１を収納している。３つの絶縁体４１は、それぞれが同一の形状及び大きさを有し、第１〜第３の接触端子１１０，１２０，１３０の接触部１１０ｂ，１２０ｂ，１３０ｂの一方の平面を覆うように配置されている。   The male housing 20 houses three insulators 41 provided corresponding to the first to third contact terminals 110, 120, and 130, respectively. The three insulators 41 have the same shape and size, and are arranged so as to cover one plane of the contact portions 110b, 120b, and 130b of the first to third contact terminals 110, 120, and 130. ing.

絶縁体４１は、例えば、ＰＰＳ（ポリフェニレンサルファイド）樹脂、ＰＰＡ（ポリフタルアミド）樹脂、ＰＡ（ポリアミド）樹脂、ＰＢＴ（ポリブチレンテレフタレート）、エポキシ系樹脂）等の絶縁性の樹脂からなる。絶縁体４１は、本発明の「第１絶縁体」の一例である。   The insulator 41 is made of an insulating resin such as PPS (polyphenylene sulfide) resin, PPA (polyphthalamide) resin, PA (polyamide) resin, PBT (polybutylene terephthalate), or epoxy resin). The insulator 41 is an example of the “first insulator” in the present invention.

また、雄側ハウジング２０には、押圧機構６が設けられている。押圧機構６は、有底円筒状の回転部材６１と、回転部材６１に一端が収容されるコイルばね６２と、コイルばね６２の他端に当接する押圧力出力部材としての金属板６３と、回転部材６１を抜け止めするスナップリング６４とを備えて構成されている。   The male housing 20 is provided with a pressing mechanism 6. The pressing mechanism 6 includes a bottomed cylindrical rotating member 61, a coil spring 62 having one end accommodated in the rotating member 61, a metal plate 63 as a pressing force output member in contact with the other end of the coil spring 62, and rotation And a snap ring 64 that prevents the member 61 from coming off.

回転部材６１は、雄側ハウジング２０の内外に連通する貫通孔２１３に収納され、この貫通孔２１３の内部で回転自在である。また、回転部材６１は、底部６１１と筒部６１２とを一体に有している。筒部６１２の外面には、環状の溝が形成され、この溝内にシール部材２６が収容されている。シール部材２６は、筒部６１２の外面と貫通孔２１３の内周面２１３ａとの間を封止している。   The rotating member 61 is housed in a through hole 213 communicating with the inside and outside of the male housing 20 and is rotatable within the through hole 213. The rotating member 61 has a bottom portion 611 and a cylindrical portion 612 integrally. An annular groove is formed on the outer surface of the cylindrical portion 612, and the seal member 26 is accommodated in the groove. The seal member 26 seals between the outer surface of the cylindrical portion 612 and the inner peripheral surface 213a of the through hole 213.

底部６１１には、回転部材６１を回転させる工具の先端部を受容する穴部６１１ａが形成されている。穴部６１１ａは、例えば図１（ｂ）に示すように星形を呈し、＋ドライバや六角レンチ等の汎用工具による回転操作を阻止し得る形状に形成されている。   The bottom 611 is formed with a hole 611a for receiving the tip of a tool that rotates the rotating member 61. The hole 611a has a star shape as shown in FIG. 1B, for example, and is formed in a shape that can prevent a rotation operation by a general-purpose tool such as a + driver or a hexagon wrench.

回転部材６１は、雄側ハウジング２０に対して回転することにより、貫通孔２１３の中心軸に沿って進退移動する。回転部材６１がその回転によって進退移動する構造は、特に限定しないが、例えば筒部６１２の側面の対向した位置から径方向外側に突出する２つの突起を形成し、この突起を、貫通孔２１３の内周面２１３ａに形成された螺旋状の溝に螺合させる構造を採用することができる。また、筒部６１２の外周面に螺旋状の雄ねじを形成すると共に、貫通孔２１３の内周面２１３ａに雌ねじを形成し、これらの雄ねじと雌ねじとを螺合させてもよい。   The rotating member 61 moves forward and backward along the central axis of the through hole 213 by rotating with respect to the male housing 20. The structure in which the rotating member 61 moves forward and backward by the rotation is not particularly limited. For example, two protrusions that protrude radially outward from the opposed positions of the side surfaces of the cylindrical portion 612 are formed, and these protrusions are connected to the through holes 213.

絶縁体４２は、直方体状の凹部４２０ａが形成された升状の本体部４２０と、本体部４２０の嵌合方向の一端に形成された一対の突起部４２１と、本体部４２０の嵌合方向の他端に形成されたテーパ部４２２とを一体に有している。本体部４２０の凹部４２０ａには、押圧機構６の金属板６３が収容される（図２，３参照）。   The insulator 42 includes a bowl-shaped main body 420 having a rectangular parallelepiped recess 420a, a pair of protrusions 421 formed at one end of the main body 420 in the fitting direction, and the main body 420 in the fitting direction. A taper portion 422 formed at the other end is integrally provided. The metal plate 63 of the pressing mechanism 6 is accommodated in the recess 420a of the main body 420 (see FIGS. 2 and 3).

本体部４２０は、下平面４２０ｃから上方に向かって窪んで形成された一対の凹部４２０ａが設けられている。図５に示す例では、一対の凹部４２０ａが下平面４２０ｃの幅方向の両端部に設けられ、これらの凹部４２０ａが側面４２０ｄにも開口している。つまり、凹部４２０ａは、下平面４２０ｃと側面４２０ｄとによって形成される角部に設けられている。   The main body 420 is provided with a pair of recesses 420a that are recessed upward from the lower plane 420c. In the example shown in FIG. 5, a pair of recesses 420a are provided at both ends in the width direction of the lower flat surface 420c, and these recesses 420a are also opened on the side surface 420d. That is, the recess 420a is provided at a corner formed by the lower flat surface 420c and the side surface 420d.

一対の突起部４２１は、本体部４２０の上方に突出すると共に、本体部４２０の側面４２０ｄよりも幅方向に突出している。   The pair of protrusions 421 protrude above the main body 420 and protrude in the width direction from the side surface 420 d of the main body 420.

It has a sloped surface.

（組立体４の構成）
図６は、３つの絶縁体４１及び１つの絶縁体４２を連結してなる組立体４を示し、（ａ）は左側面図、（ｂ）は正面図、（ｃ）は右側面図、（ｄ）は斜視図である。 (Configuration of assembly 4)
6 shows an assembly 4 formed by connecting three insulators 41 and one insulator 42, (a) is a left side view, (b) is a front view, (c) is a right side view, d) is a perspective view.

３つの絶縁体４１は、それぞれが同一の形状及び大きさを有しているが、以下の説明ではこれらを区別するため、絶縁体４２に隣接する絶縁体４１を第１の絶縁体４１Ａとし、この第１の絶縁体４１Ａに隣接する絶縁体４１を第２の絶縁体４１Ｂとし、この第２の絶縁体４１Ｂに隣接する絶縁体４１を第３の絶縁体４１Ｃとする。   The three insulators 41 have the same shape and size, but in the following description, the insulator 41 adjacent to the insulator 42 is defined as the first insulator 41A in order to distinguish them. The insulator 41 adjacent to the first insulator 41A is referred to as a second insulator 41B, and the insulator 41 adjacent to the second insulator 41B is referred to as a third insulator 41C.

絶縁体４２と第１の絶縁体４１Ａとは、絶縁体４２の一対の凹部４２０ａに第１の絶縁体４１Ａの一対の第１凸部４１２（第２突起４１２ｂ）が嵌合することで、互いに積層方向に連結されている。この連結により、絶縁体４２と第１の絶縁体４１Ａとの幅方向の相対移動が規制されている。また、この連結により、絶縁体４２と第１の絶縁体４１Ａとの嵌合方向一側への相対移動（第１の絶縁体４１Ａが雄側ハウジング２０から抜け出す方向への移動）が規制されている。   The insulator 42 and the first insulator 41A are connected to each other by fitting the pair of first protrusions 412 (second protrusions 412b) of the first insulator 41A into the pair of recesses 420a of the insulator 42. They are connected in the stacking direction. By this connection, the relative movement in the width direction between the insulator 42 and the first insulator 41A is restricted. In addition, this connection restricts relative movement of the insulator 42 and the first insulator 41A to one side in the fitting direction (moving in the direction in which the first insulator 41A comes out of the male housing 20). Yes.

また、第１の絶縁体４１Ａと第２の絶縁体４１Ｂとは、第１の絶縁体４１Ａの一対の凹部４２０ａに第２の絶縁体４１Ｂの一対の第１凸部４１２（第２突起４１２ｂ）が嵌合することで、互いに積層方向に連結されている。同様に、第２の絶縁体４１Ｂと第３の絶縁体４１Ｃとは、第２の絶縁体４１Ｂの一対の凹部４２０ａに第３の絶縁体４１Ｃの一対の第１凸部４１２（第２突起４１２ｂ）が嵌合することで、互いに積層方向に連結されている。   In addition, the first insulator 41A and the second insulator 41B include a pair of first protrusions 412 (second protrusions 412b) of the second insulator 41B and a pair of recesses 420a of the first insulator 41A. Are connected to each other in the stacking direction. Similarly, the second insulator 41B and the third insulator 41C include a pair of first protrusions 412 (second protrusions 412b) of the third insulator 41C and a pair of recesses 420a of the second insulator 41B. ) Are connected to each other in the stacking direction.

第１の絶縁体４１Ａと第２の絶縁体４１Ｂとの連結により、第１の絶縁体４１Ａと第２の絶縁体４１Ｂとの嵌合方向の相対移動、及び幅方向の相対移動が規制されている。つまり、第１の絶縁体４１Ａと第２の絶縁体４１Ｂとの間に、これらを嵌合方向又は幅方向に相対移動させる力が作用すると、第２の絶縁体４１Ｂにおける第１凸部４１２の第２突起４１２ｂが第１の絶縁体４１Ａにおける凹部４１０ａの内面に当接することにより、これらの方向への相対移動が規制されている。   By the connection between the first insulator 41A and the second insulator 41B, the relative movement in the fitting direction and the relative movement in the width direction of the first insulator 41A and the second insulator 41B are restricted. Yes. That is, when a force that moves the first insulator 41A and the second insulator 41B relative to each other in the fitting direction or the width direction acts between the first insulator 41A and the second insulator 41B, the first protrusion 412 of the second insulator 41B The second protrusion 412b is in contact with the inner surface of the recess 410a in the first insulator 41A, so that relative movement in these directions is restricted.

凹部４１０ａ及び第１凸部４１２は、本体部４１０の幅方向の両端部に設けられているので、第１の絶縁体４１Ａと第２の絶縁体４１Ｂとは、幅方向の両側への相対移動が規制されている。また、嵌合方向における凹部４１０ａの両端はそれぞれ閉塞されているので、第１の絶縁体４１Ａと第２の絶縁体４１Ｂとは、嵌合方向及びその逆方向への相対移動が規制されている。   Since the concave portion 410a and the first convex portion 412 are provided at both ends in the width direction of the main body portion 410, the first insulator 41A and the second insulator 41B move relative to both sides in the width direction. Is regulated. Moreover, since both ends of the recess 410a in the fitting direction are closed, the first insulator 41A and the second insulator 41B are restricted from relative movement in the fitting direction and in the opposite direction. .

また、第１の絶縁体４１Ａと第２の絶縁体４１Ｂとは、第１の絶縁体４１Ａにおける凹部４１０ａの深さ方向の距離の範囲内で、互いに連結された状態を保ちながら積層方向に相対移動可能である。   Further, the first insulator 41A and the second insulator 41B are relatively relative to each other in the stacking direction while being connected to each other within the range of the distance in the depth direction of the concave portion 410a in the first insulator 41A. It is movable.

同様に、第２の絶縁体４１Ｂと第３の絶縁体４１Ｃとの連結により、第２の絶縁体４１Ｂと第３の絶縁体４１Ｃとの嵌合方向の相対移動、及び幅方向の相対移動が規制されている。また、第２の絶縁体４１Ｂと第３の絶縁体４１Ｃとは、第２の絶縁体４１Ｂにおける凹部４１０ａの深さ方向の距離の範囲内で、互いに連結された状態を保ちながら積層方向に相対移動可能である。   Similarly, the relative movement in the fitting direction and the relative movement in the width direction of the second insulator 41B and the third insulator 41C are caused by the connection between the second insulator 41B and the third insulator 41C. It is regulated. Further, the second insulator 41B and the third insulator 41C are relatively relative to each other in the stacking direction while being connected to each other within the range of the distance in the depth direction of the recess 410a in the second insulator 41B. It is movable.

図２及び図３に示すように、組立体４は、積層方向の一端における第３の絶縁体４１Ｃが雄側ハウジング２０の内方突起２１２に係止されることにより、雄側ハウジング２０からの離脱が抑止されている。より詳細には、第３の絶縁体４１Ｃは、その一対の第２凸部４１３が内方突起２１２よりも雄側ハウジング２０の奥側に位置することにより、雄側ハウジング２０から離脱する方向の移動が規制され、これに伴って第２の絶縁体４１Ｂ、第１の絶縁体４１Ａ、及び絶縁体４２の嵌合方向への移動が順次規制されている。本実施の形態では、第３の絶縁体４１Ｃの一対の第２凸部４１３が、内方突起２１２と保持部２３との間に位置している。   As shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, the assembly 4 is configured so that the third insulator 41 </ b> C at one end in the stacking direction is locked to the inward protrusion 212 of the male housing 20, thereby Withdrawal is deterred. More specifically, the third insulator 41 </ b> C has a pair of second protrusions 413 that are located on the back side of the male housing 20 with respect to the inner protrusions 212, so that the third insulator 41 </ b> C is detached from the male housing 20. The movement is restricted, and accordingly, the movement of the second insulator 41B, the first insulator 41A, and the insulator 42 in the fitting direction is sequentially restricted. In the present embodiment, the pair of second convex portions 413 of the third insulator 41 </ b> C is located between the inward protrusion 212 and the holding portion 23.

図７は、組立体４と、第１〜第３の電線１１〜１３及び第１〜第３の接触端子１１０，１２０，１３０とを組み合わせた状態を示す説明図である。図８は、図７のＡ−Ａ線断面図である。   FIG. 7 is an explanatory view showing a state in which the assembly 4 is combined with the first to third electric wires 11 to 13 and the first to third contact terminals 110, 120, and 130. 8 is a cross-sectional view taken along line AA in FIG.

第１の絶縁体４１Ａにおける本体部４１０の上方には、上平面４１０ｂと向かい合うように、第１の接触端子１１０の接触部１１０ｂが配置される。第２の絶縁体４１Ｂにおける本体部４１０の上方には、上平面４１０ｂと向かい合うように、第２の接触端子１２０の接触部１２０ｂが配置される。第３の絶縁体４１Ｃにおける本体部４１０の上方には、上平面４１０ｂと向かい合うように、第３の接触端子１３０の接触部１３０ｂが配置される。また、第１〜第３の接触端子１１０〜１３０の接触部１１０ｂ，１２０ｂ，１３０ｂは、第１〜第３の絶縁体４１Ａ，４１Ｂ，４１Ｃにおける一対の第１凸部４１２の間に配置されている。   The contact portion 110b of the first contact terminal 110 is disposed above the main body portion 410 in the first insulator 41A so as to face the upper plane 410b. The contact portion 120b of the second contact terminal 120 is disposed above the main body portion 410 in the second insulator 41B so as to face the upper plane 410b. The contact portion 130b of the third contact terminal 130 is disposed above the main body portion 410 in the third insulator 41C so as to face the upper plane 410b. Further, the contact portions 110b, 120b, and 130b of the first to third contact terminals 110 to 130 are disposed between the pair of first convex portions 412 in the first to third insulators 41A, 41B, and 41C. Yes.

第１の絶縁体４１Ａにおける覆い部４１１は、第１の接触端子１１０の嵌合方向の先端面１１０ｄを覆っている。この先端面１１０ｄは、第１の接触端子１１０の嵌合方向における一端面（接続部１１０ａとは反対側の端面）であり、雄側ハウジング２０と雌側ハウジング３０とが非嵌合状態であるときに、使用者等の手指が最も触れやすい面である。   The cover portion 411 in the first insulator 41A covers the front end surface 110d in the fitting direction of the first contact terminal 110. This front end surface 110d is one end surface in the fitting direction of the first contact terminal 110 (the end surface opposite to the connection portion 110a), and the male housing 20 and the female housing 30 are not fitted. Sometimes the finger of the user or the like is the surface that is most easily touched.

なお、本実施の形態では、覆い部４１１が先端面１１０ｄをその幅方向の全体に亘って覆っているが、覆い部４１１は、少なくとも使用者等の手指の先端面１１０ｄへの接触を阻止し得るように、先端面１１０ｄの一部を覆っていればよい。また、覆い部４１１は、必ずしも接触部１１０ｂの厚さ方向（積層方向）における先端面１１０ｄの全体を覆っていなくともよい。またさらに、覆い部４１１は、先端面１１０ｄに接触していなくともよい。すなわち、覆い部４１１は、使用者等の手指が第１の接触端子１１０に直接触れることを阻止し得る態様で先端面１１０ｄを覆っていればよい。   In the present embodiment, the cover 411 covers the tip surface 110d over the entire width direction, but the cover 411 prevents at least the user's finger from contacting the tip surface 110d. It is only necessary to cover a part of the front end surface 110d so as to be obtained. Moreover, the cover part 411 does not necessarily need to cover the whole front end surface 110d in the thickness direction (stacking direction) of the contact part 110b. Furthermore, the cover part 411 does not need to contact the front end surface 110d. That is, the cover part 411 should just cover the front end surface 110d in the aspect which can prevent fingers, such as a user, from touching the 1st contact terminal 110 directly.

同様に、第２の絶縁体４１Ｂにおける覆い部４１１は、第２の接触端子１２０の嵌合方向の先端面１２０ｄを覆っている。また、第３の絶縁体４１Ｃにおける覆い部４１１は、第３の接触端子１３０の嵌合方向の先端面１３０ｄを覆っている。第２の絶縁体４１Ｂ及び第３の絶縁体４１Ｃにおける覆い部４１１は、上記と同じく、使用者等の手指が第２及び第３の接触端子１２０，１３０に直接触れることを阻止し得る態様で先端面１１０ｄを覆っていればよい。   Similarly, the cover portion 411 of the second insulator 41B covers the front end surface 120d of the second contact terminal 120 in the fitting direction. Further, the cover portion 411 of the third insulator 41C covers the front end surface 130d of the third contact terminal 130 in the fitting direction. The cover portion 411 of the second insulator 41B and the third insulator 41C can prevent the fingers of the user or the like from directly touching the second and third contact terminals 120 and 130 as described above. What is necessary is just to cover the front end surface 110d.

（実施の形態の作用及び効果）
以上説明した実施の形態によれば、以下に述べる作用及び効果が得られる。 (Operation and effect of the embodiment)
According to the embodiment described above, the following operations and effects can be obtained.

（１）各絶縁体４１（第１〜第３の絶縁体４１Ａ〜４１Ｃ）及び絶縁体４２は、積層方向に互いに連結されることにより、互いの嵌合方向の相対移動及び幅方向の相対移動が規制されるので、例えば雄側ハウジング２０に、これら各絶縁体４１及び絶縁体４２の相対移動を規制するための部材を設けることなく、各絶縁体４１及び絶縁体４２の雄側ハウジング２０内における位置を規定することができる。これにより、コネクタ装置１の小型化及び軽量化を図ることが可能となる。 (1) Each insulator 41 (the first to third insulators 41A to 41C) and the insulator 42 are connected to each other in the stacking direction, so that the relative movement in the fitting direction and the relative movement in the width direction are performed. Therefore, for example, the male housing 20 is not provided with a member for restricting the relative movement of the insulator 41 and the insulator 42, and the insulator 41 and the insulator 42 inside the male housing 20 are not provided. The position at can be defined. As a result, the connector device 1 can be reduced in size and weight.

（２）雄側ハウジング２０側の各絶縁体４１（第１〜第３の絶縁体４１Ａ〜４１Ｃ）の覆い部４１１が第１〜第３の接触端子１１０〜１３０の先端面１１０ｄ，１２０ｄ，１３０ｄを覆い、かつ雌ハウジング３０の各絶縁体５１が第４〜第６の接触端子１４０〜１６０の先端面１４０ｃ，１５０ｃ，１６０ｃを覆っているので、雄側ハウジング２０と雌ハウジング３０とが嵌合されていない状態でも、使用者等の手指が第１〜第３の接触端子１１０〜１３０及び第４〜第６の接触端子１４０〜１６０に直接触れることを抑止することができる。これにより、感電や短絡等の発生を抑制することが可能となる。 (2) The cover portions 411 of the respective insulators 41 (first to third insulators 41A to 41C) on the male housing 20 side are the tip surfaces 110d, 120d, and 130d of the first to third contact terminals 110 to 130. And each insulator 51 of the female housing 30 covers the tip surfaces 140c, 150c, 160c of the fourth to sixth contact terminals 140-160, so that the male housing 20 and the female housing 30 are fitted together. Even in a state where it is not done, it is possible to prevent the fingers of the user or the like from directly touching the first to third contact terminals 110 to 130 and the fourth to sixth contact terminals 140 to 160. Thereby, it becomes possible to suppress generation | occurrence | production of an electric shock, a short circuit, etc.

（３）互いに積層方向に隣接する絶縁体４１同士（第１の絶縁体４１Ａと第２の絶縁体４１Ｂ、及び第２の絶縁体４１Ｂと第３の絶縁体４１Ｃ）は、一方の絶縁体４１に設けられた積層方向の凹部４１０ａに他方の絶縁体４１に設けられた第１凸部４１２が嵌合することで互いに連結される。このため、絶縁体４１同士を積層方向に重ねることを以てこれらが連結されるので、組立作業を容易に行うことができる。また、絶縁体４１と絶縁体４２との連結についても同様である。 (3) The insulators 41 adjacent to each other in the stacking direction (the first insulator 41A and the second insulator 41B, and the second insulator 41B and the third insulator 41C) are one insulator 41. The first convex portions 412 provided on the other insulator 41 are fitted to the concave portions 410a in the stacking direction provided on the first insulator 41, so that they are connected to each other. For this reason, since these are connected by stacking the insulators 41 in the stacking direction, the assembling work can be easily performed. The same applies to the connection between the insulator 41 and the insulator 42.

（４）一対の凹部４１０ａ及び一対の第１凸部４１２は、本体部４１０の幅方向の両端部に設けられるので、例えば凹部４１０ａ及び第１凸部４１２が本体部４１０のそれぞれ１箇所に設けられた場合に生じ得る、凹部４１０ａ及び第１凸部４１２を支点とした絶縁体４１の回転動作を抑制することができると共に、一対の第１凸部４１２の間に第１〜第３の接触端子１１０〜１３０の接触部１１０ｂ，１２０ｂ，１３０ｂを配置することで、雄側ハウジング２０の幅方向の寸法の拡大を抑制することができる。 (4) Since the pair of concave portions 410 a and the pair of first convex portions 412 are provided at both ends in the width direction of the main body portion 410, for example, the concave portions 410 a and the first convex portions 412 are provided at one location on the main body portion 410. The rotation operation of the insulator 41 with the concave portion 410a and the first convex portion 412 as a fulcrum that can occur when the first convex portion 412 and the first to third contacts between the pair of first convex portions 412 can be suppressed. By disposing the contact portions 110b, 120b, and 130b of the terminals 110 to 130, it is possible to suppress an increase in the dimension of the male housing 20 in the width direction.

（５）組立体４を構成する複数（３つ）の絶縁体４１は、それぞれが同一の形状及び大きさであるので、一つの金型によってこれらを成型することができ、製造に要するコストを低減することが可能となる。 (5) Since the plurality of (three) insulators 41 constituting the assembly 4 have the same shape and size, they can be molded by a single mold, and the manufacturing cost is reduced. It becomes possible to reduce.

（６）雄側ハウジング２０に、第１〜第３の接触端子１１０，１２０，１３０、第４〜第６の接触端子１４０，１５０，１６０、複数の絶縁体４１、及び複数の絶縁体５１が積層された積層構造を積層方向に押圧する押圧機構６が設けられているので、第１〜第３の接触端子１１０，１２０，１３０と第４〜第６の接触端子１４０，１５０，１６０とを複数の絶縁体４１及び複数の絶縁体５１を介して押圧することで、これらを確実に接触させることが可能となる。 (6) The male-side housing 20 includes the first to third contact terminals 110, 120, 130, the fourth to sixth contact terminals 140, 150, 160, the plurality of insulators 41, and the plurality of insulators 51. Since the pressing mechanism 6 that presses the stacked structure in the stacking direction is provided, the first to third contact terminals 110, 120, and 130 and the fourth to sixth contact terminals 140, 150, 160 are connected. By pressing through the plurality of insulators 41 and the plurality of insulators 51, it becomes possible to contact them reliably.

（７）組立体４は、積層方向の一端における絶縁体４１（第３の絶縁体４１Ｃ）が内方突起２１２に係止されることにより、雄側ハウジング２０からの離脱が抑止されている。これにより、３つの絶縁体４１（第１〜第３の絶縁体４１Ａ〜４１Ｃ）のそれぞれについて雄側ハウジング２０からの離脱が抑止する部材を設ける場合に比較して、このような部材が不要となるので、コネクタ装置１の小型化及び軽量化を図ることが可能となる。 (7) In the assembly 4, the insulator 41 (third insulator 41 </ b> C) at one end in the stacking direction is locked to the inner protrusion 212, so that separation from the male housing 20 is suppressed. Thereby, such a member is unnecessary as compared with the case where a member for preventing detachment from the male housing 20 is provided for each of the three insulators 41 (first to third insulators 41A to 41C). Therefore, the connector device 1 can be reduced in size and weight.
