Abstract

A relay detachment jig includes a handle, a pair of holders that holds a relay, a hold releasing unit that connects the handle and the pair of holders and that is elastically deformable, a deformation restricting unit that restricts elastic deformation of the hold releasing unit, an engagement releasing unit that releases the engagement between the relay and a housing member, and a movement restricting unit that restricts a movement of the relay held in the relay detachment jig in a detaching direction. The handle is provided in a manner extending in the detaching direction from the hold releasing unit.

Claims (40)

1. A component detachment jig for removing a component from a housing to which the component is attached, the component detachment jig comprising:

a handle;

a pair of holders configured to hold the component; and

a hold releasing unit configured as a set of plates and configured to connect the handle and the pair of holders, and the set of plates are configured to be elastically deformable towards each other in a direction intersecting with a detaching direction in which the component is detached, wherein

the handle is provided in a manner extending in the detaching direction from the hold releasing unit,

each holder in the pair of holders has a cantilever-arm like shape which is bendable and deformable, and has one end which is not connected to the hold releasing unit provided with a protrusion protruding in a direction toward a protrusion on the other holder, and supporting the component in a direction opposite to the detaching direction,

the pair of holders and the protrusions are enabled to bend and deform in a direction moving away from each other when the set of plates are elastically deformed towards each other, and when the protrusions are pressed from a side opposite to the handle in the detaching direction,

the hold-releasing unit has a width smaller than an external size of the pair of holders in a direction in which the pair of holders face each other,

the handle has a width smaller than the external size of the pair of holders in the direction in which the pair of holders face each other, and

an outer surface of the hold-releasing unit is integral with and planar with at least portions of an outer surface of the handle.

2. The component detachment jig according to claim 1 , further comprising: a deformation restricting unit configured to restrict elastic deformation of the hold releasing unit, wherein the deformation restricting unit includes a pair of restricting sides.

3. The component detachment jig according to claim 2 , wherein

the set of plates is configured as two bendable and deformable plates, and the two bendable and deformable plates are enabled to abut against the pair of restricting sides of the deformation restricting unit.

4. The component detachment jig according to claim 3 , wherein

the component is a component having an engaging unit which is to be engaged with the housing, and

the component detachment jig further comprising:

an engagement releasing unit configured to release an engagement between the housing and the component engaged with the housing,

wherein the engagement releasing unit includes a releasing piece and an aligning piece provided side by side along a width direction.

5. The component detachment jig according to claim 3 , further comprising:

a movement restricting unit configured to restrict a movement of the component supported by the protrusions in the detaching direction,

wherein the movement restricting unit includes a first pair of restricting units that extend inwardly in a width direction, and a second pair of restricting units that extend downwardly from the pair of holders in a length direction.

6. The component detachment jig according to claim 2 , wherein

the component is a component having an engaging unit which is to be engaged with the housing, and

the component detachment jig further comprising:

an engagement releasing unit configured to release an engagement between the housing and the component engaged with the housing,

wherein the engagement releasing unit includes a releasing piece and an aligning piece provided side by side along a width direction.

7. The component detachment jig according to claim 2 , further comprising:

a movement restricting unit configured to restrict a movement of the component supported by the protrusions in the detaching direction,

wherein the movement restricting unit includes a first pair of restricting units that extend inwardly in a width direction, and a second pair of restricting units that extend downwardly from the pair of holders in a length direction.

8. The component detachment jig according to claim 1 , wherein

the component is a component having an engaging unit which is to be engaged with the housing, and

the component detachment jig further comprising:

an engagement releasing unit configured to release an engagement between the housing and the component engaged with the housing,

wherein the engagement releasing unit includes a releasing piece and an aligning piece provided side by side along a width direction.

9. The component detachment jig according to claim 8 , further comprising:

a movement restricting unit configured to restrict a movement of the component supported by the protrusions in the detaching direction,

wherein the movement restricting unit includes a first pair of restricting units that extend inwardly in a width direction, and a second pair of restricting units that extend downwardly from the pair of holders in a length direction.

10. The component detachment jig according to claim 1 , further comprising:

a movement restricting unit configured to restrict a movement of the component supported by the protrusions in the detaching direction,

wherein the movement restricting unit includes a first pair of restricting units that extend inwardly in a width direction, and a second pair of restricting units that extend downwardly from the pair of holders in a length direction.
