Lid member with waterproofing function
In a lid member with a waterproofing function, the lid member including a projection portion integrally formed in one surface of a resin main body of the lid member opening and closing an opening portion formed in a housing, and accommodated in the opening portion, and a seal portion integrally formed in an outer peripheral surface of the projection portion, provided with an annular projection coming into close contact with a peripheral surface of the opening portion, and made of a rubber-like elastic material, the annular projection is formed as a shape which is expanded toward an inner portion side of the opening portion, forms in its outer peripheral surface a taper surface which converges toward the inner portion side, and is provided with a seal surface having a circular arc shaped cross section so as to be connected to a maximum diameter portion of the taper surface.
1. A lid member with a waterproofing function for opening and closing an opening portion formed in a housing, the lid member comprising:
a resin main body accommodated in said opening portion;
a projection portion which is integrally formed in one surface of said resin main body, said projection portion having a distal end surface and an outer peripheral surface; and
an elastic seal portion which is integrally formed in said outer peripheral surface of said projection portion, said seal portion including an annular projection configured to abut an inner peripheral surface of said opening portion,
wherein said annular projection is formed as a shape which is expanded toward an inner portion side of said housing in said opening portion, has a tapered outer peripheral surface which converges toward said inner portion side, and is provided with a seal surface having a circular arc shaped cross section extending from said tapered outer peripheral surface toward said resin main body, and
wherein a maximum diameter of said seal surface is positioned closer to said inner portion side of said housing than said distal end surface.
2. The lid member with the waterproofing function according to claim 1 , wherein said tapered outer peripheral surface first contacts said inner peripheral surface of said housing when said lid member closes said opening portion.
3. The lid member with the waterproofing function according to claim 2 , wherein a taper angle which said tapered outer peripheral surface forms in relation to said inner peripheral surface of said housing is in a range between 20 and 50 degrees.
4. The lid member with the waterproofing function according to claim 3 , wherein a rubber hardness of said seal portion is between JIS A55 and 85.
5. The lid member with the waterproofing function according to claim 2 , wherein a rubber hardness of said seal portion is between JIS A55 and 85.
6. The lid member with the waterproofing function according to claim 1 , wherein a taper angle which said tapered outer peripheral surface forms in relation to said inner peripheral surface of said housing is in a range between 20 and 50 degrees.
7. The lid member with the waterproofing function according to claim 6 , wherein a rubber hardness of said seal portion is between JIS A55 and 85.
8. The lid member with the waterproofing function according to claim 1 , wherein a rubber hardness of said seal portion is between JIS A55 and 85.
