Electrical junction box
View Patent ↗There is provided an electrical junction box which can improve rigidity of a case body. An electrical junction box includes a block, a case body and an inner cover which regulates a wiring path of an electric wire attached to the block. The case body is formed into a deep box-like shape having a peripheral wall, a bottom wall and an opening portion, wherein a portion of the case body adjacent to the bottom wall has a tapered shape. Cutout portions are formed at two opposing faces of the peripheral wall. A width of the cutout portion is smaller when the case body is in a natural condition in which the block is not housed in the case body than when the block is housed in the case body. The width of the cutout portion is broadened as the block is inserted into the case body.
1. An electrical junction box comprising:
a block to which a plurality of components is attached;
a case body arranged to house the block; and
an inner cover arranged to be attached to the block to regulate a wiring path of an electric wire attached to the block,
wherein the case body is formed into a box-like shape having a peripheral wall, a bottom wall and an opening portion, and
wherein the inner cover is formed into a tapered shape having a width which decreases toward the bottom wall and follows an inner face of the case body.
2. The electrical junction box according to claim 1 ,
wherein cutout portions are formed at two opposing faces of the peripheral wall of the case body, the cutout portions being concave from an end of the peripheral wall adjacent to the opening portion toward the bottom wall,
wherein a width of each cutout portion is smaller when the case body is in a natural condition in which the block is not housed in the case body than when the case body is in a condition in which the block is housed in the case body, and
wherein the width of each cutout portion is broadened as the block is inserted into the case body.
