Electrical connection box and wire harness
An electrical connection box applicable to a wire harness includes a case including a housing space that is formed inside by a first member and a second member facing each other along an opposite direction and that houses a substrate, and a locking part that is locked to a fixing object surface. The first member includes a first protrusion, and the second member includes a second protrusion formed to face the first protrusion and an abutting part that abuts on the fixing object surface in a state in which the locking part is locked to the fixing object surface, generates a pushing force along the opposite direction, and has the substrate sandwiched between the first protrusion and the second protrusion.
1. An electrical connection box comprising:
a substrate provided with an electronic component; and
a case including a housing space that is formed inside by a first member and a second member facing each other along an opposite direction and that houses the substrate, and a locking part that is locked to a fixing object surface intersecting with the opposite direction, wherein
the first member includes a first protrusion formed to protrude into the housing space along the opposite direction, and
the second member includes a second protrusion formed to face the first protrusion along the opposite direction and to protrude into the housing space, and an abutting part that is formed to protrude to a side opposite to the housing space along the opposite direction, abuts on the fixing object surface in a state in which the locking part is locked to the fixing object surface, generates a pushing force along the opposite direction, and sandwiches the substrate between the first protrusion and the second protrusion.
2. The electrical connection box according to claim 1 , wherein
a plurality of the abutting parts are provided at a position in which the abutting parts surround the second protrusion when viewed along the opposite direction.
3. The electrical connection box according to claim 2 , wherein
the second member includes:
a plate-shaped portion that is formed to have a plate-like shape, is provided with the second protrusion and the abutting part, and is bendable along the opposite direction by the pushing force generated by the abutting part; and
a surrounding rib part that is provided at a position in which the surrounding rib part surrounds the second protrusion and overlaps with the abutting parts when viewed along the opposite direction, and is formed to protrude from the plate-shaped portion toward the housing space along the opposite direction.
4. The electrical connection box according to claim 1 , wherein
a pair of the locking parts are provided to the second member sandwiching the abutting part along a direction intersecting with the opposite direction.
5. The electrical connection box according to claim 2 , wherein
a pair of the locking parts are provided to the second member sandwiching the abutting part along a direction intersecting with the opposite direction.
6. The electrical connection box according to claim 3 , wherein
a pair of the locking parts are provided to the second member sandwiching the abutting part along a direction intersecting with the opposite direction.
7. A wire harness comprising:
a conductive wiring material; and
an electrical connection box electrically connected to the wiring material, wherein
the electrical connection box includes a substrate provided with an electronic component electrically connected to the wiring material, and a case including a housing space that is formed inside by a first member and a second member facing each other along an opposite direction and that houses the substrate, and a locking part that is locked to a fixing object surface intersecting with the opposite direction,
the first member includes a first protrusion formed to protrude into the housing space along the opposite direction, and
the second member includes a second protrusion formed to face the first protrusion along the opposite direction and to protrude into the housing space, and an abutting part that is formed to protrude to a side opposite to the housing space along the opposite direction, abuts on the fixing object surface in a state in which the locking part is locked to the fixing object surface, generates a pushing force along the opposite direction, and sandwiches the substrate between the first protrusion and the second protrusion.
