Patent number: 11955760Abstract: A terminal block includes a housing including a connection surface to which an electromagnetic relay is connectable. The housing includes at least one attachment groove that opens to the connection surface and extends toward inside of the housing. The at least one attachment groove includes a first groove portion and a second groove portion are disposed adjacent to and communicating with each other. The first groove portion includes a first narrow width portion disposed near the connection surface, a wide width portion disposed farther from the connection surface than the first narrow width portion, and a step portion at a boundary of the first narrow width portion and the wide width portion, the step portion being capable of restricting a movement of the holding member in a removal direction. The second groove portion is configured to be capable of accommodating the claw portion without elastically deforming.Type: GrantFiled: February 19, 2020Date of Patent: April 9, 2024Assignee: OMRON CORPORATIONInventors: Shinya Tsuji, Kenichiro Masaki

Publication number: 20230062343Abstract: A socket includes a housing including a connection surface to which an electronic device is connected, and a lever attached to the housing to be rotatable. The lever includes an operation portion that is rotatable between a first position and a second position and a contact portion that extends from the operation portion in a direction approaching the connection surface and rotates about the rotation axis together with the operation portion. The housing includes a restriction protrusion that comes into contact with a protruding portion protruding from the side portion of the electronic device toward the operation portion at the second position to restrict a movement of the electronic device in the first direction and in a direction away from the connection surface when the operation portion is rotated from the first position to the second position in a state where the electronic device is connected to the connection surface.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 10, 2022Publication date: March 2, 2023Inventors: Shinya MATSUO, Kenichiro MASAKI, Shinya TSUJI

Patent number: 10374337Abstract: A terminal block includes a housing that has an opening through which a wire is to be inserted, a terminal configured to be connected to the wire that is inserted through the opening, and a plate spring member configured to fix the wire by pressing the wire against the terminal. The plate spring member has a pressing portion configured to press the wire against the terminal, and a plastic deformation preventing portion configured to prevent the pressing portion from bending in a direction away from the terminal by more than a predetermined amount.Type: GrantFiled: October 18, 2017Date of Patent: August 6, 2019Assignee: OMRON CorporationInventors: Shinya Tsuji, Yoshikazu Tajiri, Tatsuro Ishikawa, Kiyokazu Matsunaga

Patent number: 9819121Abstract: A screwless terminal block allows easy insertion and removal of a wire. A housing (2) includes a fixture insertion opening (23) through which a rod-like fixture (6) is inserted to come in contact with a contact pressure spring (4) and deform the spring (4) away from a wire (5). When the fixture (6) is inserted through the fixture insertion opening (23), an acute angle of 45° or less is formed by an axis of the fixture (6) and a straight line connecting a contact point A between the housing (2) and a part of the fixture (6) adjacent to the wire insertion opening (24) and a contact point B between the housing (2) and a part of the fixture (6) adjacent to the spring (4) at a cross-section taken along a plane including the axis of the fixture (6) and parallel to a pressing direction of the spring (4).Type: GrantFiled: December 19, 2016Date of Patent: November 14, 2017Assignee: OMRON CORPORATIONInventors: Kenichiro Masaki, Keisuke Yano, Hiroshi Hashimoto, Yoshikazu Tajiri, Tomokazu Ikeda, Shinya Tsuji, Taijiro Fujiwara, Masahiro Ono, Masao Nagase, Yusuke Komoguchi
