Abstract

An electric junction box for preventing rattle between cassette blocks assembled to each other before being fixed to main body case, includes a first cassette block a second cassette block configured to be assembled to each other by locking structure, an electric distribution member for distributing power to the second cassette block from the first cassette block. The electric distribution member includes an input power source line, and a pair of connectors connected with both ends of the input power source line and engaged with the lower surface of the first cassette block and the lower surface of the second cassette block, respectively. A direction of drawing the input power source line out of each of the pair of connectors is arranged perpendicular to a direction engaging the pair of connectors with the first cassette block and the second cassette block.

Claims (10)

1. An electric junction box, comprising:

a first cassette block having a locking part;

a second cassette block having a lock-receiving part;

a main body case configured to accommodate the first cassette block and the second cassette block, and to cover a lower surface of the first cassette block and a lower surface of the second block; and

an electric distribution member for distributing power to the second cassette block from the first cassette block, including an input power source line, and a pair of connectors connected with both ends of the input power source line and engaged with the lower surface of the first cassette block and the lower surface of the second cassette block, respectively,

wherein the first cassette block and the second cassette block are configured to be assembled to each other by engaging the locking part with the lock-receiving part, and

wherein a direction of drawing the input power source line out of each of the pair of connectors is arranged perpendicular to a direction of each engaging the pair of connectors with the first cassette block and the second cassette block.

2. The electric junction box as claimed in claim 1 , further comprising a projection disposed at an upper surface side of one of the first cassette block and the second first cassette block, and abutting onto the other of the first cassette block and the second first cassette block so as to prevent rattle of the first cassette block and the second first cassette block.

3. The electric junctions box as claimed in claim 1 , further comprising a plurality of electric wires disposed on the lower surface of the first cassette block and the lower surface of the second block, wherein the input power source line sandwiches the plurality of electric wires adjacent to the input power source line between the power source line and either the lower surface of the first cassette block or the lower surface of the second block.

4. The electric junction box as claimed in claim 2 , further comprising a plurality of electric wires disposed on the lower surface of the first cassette block and the lower surface of the second block, wherein the input power source line sandwiches the plurality of electric wires adjacent to the input power source line between the power source line and either the lower surface of the first cassette block or the lower surface of the second block.
