Joint connector
View Patent ↗For providing a joint connector which is miniaturized and general-purpose by designing an interval between needle shape terminal portions same as an interval between terminals of the general-purpose connector, the joint connector 1 includes a terminal 3 with a ferrite core 10 , and a connector housing 2 receiving the terminal 3 . The terminal 3 includes a busbar 28 and a plurality of needle shape terminal portions 29 extending from the busbar 28 at intervals along a direction of lengthwise of the busbar 28 . The ferrite core 10 includes a first ferrite core 10 a arranged at a base end 29 a of the needle shape terminal portion 29 and a second ferrite core 10 b arranged at an intermediate portion 29 b of the needle shape terminal portion 29 . The first ferrite core 10 a and the second ferrite core 10 b are arranged alternately at each of the plurality of needle shape terminal portions 29.
1. A joint connector, comprising:
a terminal including a busbar and a plurality of needle shape terminal portions extending from the busbar at intervals along a direction of lengthwise of the busbar;
a ferrite core arranged at the terminal;
a connector housing receiving the terminal,
wherein the ferrite core comprises a first ferrite core arranged at a base end of the needle shape terminal portion and a second ferrite core arranged at an intermediate portion of the needle shape terminal portion, and the first ferrite core and the second ferrite core are arranged alternately at each of the plurality of needle shape terminal portions.
2. The joint connector according to claim 1 , wherein an interval between the needle shape terminal portions is configured to be same as an interval between terminals of a general-purpose connector.
3. The joint connector according to claim 1 , wherein the connector housing comprises an inner housing, in which the terminal is arranged, and an outer housing having an inner housing receiving section receiving the inner housing,
Wherein the inner housing comprises
a first inner housing comprising a busbar receiving section receiving the busbar of the terminal, and a first ferrite core receiving section receiving the first ferrite core, wherein the base end of the needle shape terminal portion of the terminal is inserted through the first inner housing; and
a second inner housing comprising a second ferrite core receiving section receiving the second ferrite core, wherein the intermediate portion of the needle shape terminal portion of the terminal is inserted through the second inner housing, and
the first ferrite core receiving section and the second ferrite receiving section are arranged alternately at each of the plurality of needle shape terminal portions,
wherein the second inner housing is provided with a first projection projecting toward the first ferrite core receiving section and opening a through hole which the needle shape terminal portion is inserted through, and the inner housing receiving section is provided with a second projection projecting toward the second ferrite core receiving section and opening another through hole which the needle shape terminal portion is inserted through.
4. The joint connector according to claim 2 , wherein the connector housing comprises an inner housing, in which the terminal is arranged, and an outer housing having an inner housing receiving section receiving the inner housing,
Wherein the inner housing comprises
a first inner housing comprising a busbar receiving section receiving the busbar of the terminal, and a first ferrite core receiving section receiving the first ferrite core, wherein the base end of the needle shape terminal portion of the terminal is inserted through the first inner housing; and
a second inner housing comprising a second ferrite core receiving section receiving the second ferrite core, wherein the intermediate portion of the needle shape terminal portion of the terminal is inserted through the second inner housing, and
the first ferrite core receiving section and the second ferrite receiving section are arranged alternately at each of the plurality of needle shape terminal portions,
wherein the second inner housing is provided with a first projection projecting toward the first ferrite core receiving section and opening a through hole which the needle shape terminal portion is inserted through, and the inner housing receiving section is provided with a second projection projecting toward the second ferrite core receiving section and opening another through hole which the needle shape terminal portion is inserted through.
