Battery connector
View Patent ↗A battery connector includes: a plurality of terminals, each of which is to be connected to each electrode of a plurality of batteries; and a case which contains the plurality of terminals therein. The case includes a terminal fixing part in which the plurality of terminals are fixed, and an insulating cover which is supported to be displaced to a closing position at which an open face of the terminal fixing part is covered by the insulating cover. A wire guide is formed in an outer surface of the insulating cover in the closing position.
1. A battery connector, comprising:
a plurality of terminals, each of which is to be connected to each electrode of a plurality of batteries; and
a case which contains the plurality of terminals therein, wherein
the case includes a terminal fixing part in which the plurality of terminals are fixed, and an insulating cover which includes a first surface and a second surface opposite to the first surface, and is supported to be displaced in a closing position at which an open face of the terminal fixing part is covered by the insulating cover and faces the first surface of the insulating cover,
wherein the insulating cover includes a wire guide formed on a side of the second surface of the insulating cover.
2. The battery connector according to claim 1 , wherein
the case includes a completely-locking cover which is supported to be displaced to a closing position at which an open face of the wire guide in the closing position is covered by the completely-locking cover to restrict a displacement of the insulating cover toward an opening position.
3. The battery connector according to claim 2 , wherein
the case includes a temporarily-locking cover which is located in an open face side of the wire guide in the closing position, and is supported to be displaced to a closing position at which the insulating cover is locked to restrict a displacement of the insulating cover toward the opening position in an opening position of the completely-locking cover.
4. The battery connector according to claim 1 , wherein
the insulating cover includes a first locking arm claw, and
the first locking arm claw is locked in a first locking part of the terminal fixing part when the insulating cover is rotated to the closing position.
5. The battery connector according to claim 2 , wherein
the completely-locking cover includes a second locking arm claw, and
the second locking arm claw is locked in a second locking part of the terminal fixing part when the completely-locking cover is rotated to the closing position.
6. The battery connector according to claim 3 , wherein
the temporarily-locking cover includes a locking claw, and
the locking claw is locked in a locking part of the insulating cover when the temporarily-locking cover is rotated to the closing position.
7. The battery connector according to claim 1 , wherein
the wire guide is disposed over the terminal fixing part when the insulating cover is in the closing position.
8. The battery connector according to claim 1 , wherein
the wire guide has a tube-shape which is open on one side.
9. The battery connector according to claim 1 , wherein
the insulating cover is rotatably displaced via a hinge.
