  • Patent number: 9431806
    Abstract: Provided is a waterproof box capable of increasing the amount of water discharged from a double wall without reducing the rigidity of a body case. A waterproof box is provided with a body case and an upper cover attached to the body case so as to cover an opening of the body case. A peripheral wall of the body case has a double-wall structure including an outer wall and an inner wall. Liquid penetrating from a seam between the upper cover and the outer wall passes between the outer wall and the inner wall and is discharged to the outside of the body case. A wide width portion and a narrow width portion which have mutually different gaps between the outer wall and the inner wall are formed in the body case.

  • Patent number: 9142944
    Abstract: Disclosed is a case for an electric junction box capable of preventing water that hits onto and bounds from a projection from invading into the case. The case for the electric junction box includes a synthetic resin made case main body, an upper cover, and a lower cover. Adjacent to a part where the case main body and the upper cover are joined a bracket for fixing car body that projects from an outer face of the case main body is disposed. The bracket is provided with a plurality of insertion holes for draining water. The plurality of insertion holes is also disposed throughout the bracket. In such the case, the water blown to the bracket falls down, without bounding, through the insertion holes, and thus making it possible to prevent the water from invading into the case.

  • Patent number: 9106007
    Abstract: An electrical junction box includes: a case main body to which a bolt is attached; a terminal of which one end is provided with a bolt insertion portion, of which the other end is provided with a wire connection portion, and of which the center is provided with a bent portion bent at right angle; two electric wires connected to the wire connection portion; and a side cover to which the terminal is attached. When the side cover is mounted on one side surface of the case main body, the bolt is inserted into the bolt insertion portion. The side cover is provided with a wire fixing piece having an arc-like sectional shape and extended along the one electric wire. The two electric wires are wound together with the wire fixing piece by a tape, and fixed to the wire fixing piece.

  • Patent number: 9083165
    Abstract: Provided is an electric junction box which prevents highly-pressured water invading into a case from blowing to components in the case. The electric junction box includes a case including a frame to which a plurality of components is to be attached, a lower cover arranged to be attached to the frame. The frame includes a first side wall. The lower cover includes a second side wall and a flange. An upper end of the second side wall is positioned inside the first side wall, and a lower end of the first side wall abuts onto the flange. An outer face of the second side wall above the flange includes a parallel face and a tapered face. The parallel face has a length of 3 mm or more, and the tapered face has a length of 3 mm or more.
