Electric junction box
An electric junction box includes a mounting portion into which an electric component is fitted and mounted. The mounting portion includes a holding wall, a locking hole and a pressing projection. The holding wall surrounds a peripheral surface of the electric component. The locking hole is formed in the holding wall and is locked to a locking projection provided on the peripheral surface of the electric component. The pressing projection protrudes from the holding wall to press and hold the peripheral surface of the electric component. The pressing projection is disposed at a position deviated from a movement path of the locking projection of the electric component to be fitted into the mounting portion.
1. An electric junction box comprising:
a mounting portion into which an electric component is fitted and mounted, wherein
the mounting portion includes
a holding wall that surrounds a peripheral surface of the electric component,
a locking hole that is formed in a continuous part of the holding wall and is locked to a locking projection provided on the peripheral surface of the electric component such that the locking projection is prevented from coming off the holding wall, and
a plurality of pressing projections that protrude from the continuous part of the holding wall to press and hold the peripheral surface of the electric component,
wherein the plurality of pressing projections are disposed on both sides of the locking projection in a direction orthogonal to a movement path of the locking projection of the electric component to be fitted into the mounting portion, and are disposed on an edge of the locking hole locked to the locking projection.
2. The electric junction box according to claim 1 , wherein
the position of the plurality pressing projections is deviated from the movement path in a direction orthogonal to the movement path.
3. The electric junction box according to claim 1 , wherein
the mounting portion includes a holding projection that protrudes from the holding wall to press and hold the peripheral surface of the electric component, and
the holding projection is disposed on a front side in a mounting direction of the electric component to the mounting portion rather than the locking hole.
4. The electric junction box according to claim 1 , wherein
the holding wall includes a pair of longer walls facing to each other and a pair of shorter walls facing to each other, to form a rectangular shape, and
the locking hole and the plurality pressing projections are provided in each of the shorter walls.
5. The electric junction box according to claim 4 , wherein
the plurality pressing projections is further provided in each of the longer walls.
6. The electric junction box according to claim 1 , wherein
when the electric component is fitted and mounted into the mounting portion, a force is transmitted by the locking projection to act on the holding wall.
