  • Patent number: 10361503
    Abstract: A resin containing packing includes an elastic seal member and a resin member. The elastic seal member integrally includes an electric wire seal part in close-contact with an electric wire inserted into an attachment hole of equipment, an exterior seal part in close-contact with an inner circumferential surface of an exterior member which is mounted on an outer circumferential side of the electric wire seal part, and an equipment-side seal part in close-contact with an inner circumferential surface of the attachment hole. The resin member, is integrated with the elastic seal member, and integrally includes an exterior engaging part which is exposed from the outer circumferential surface of the elastic seal member to be positioned and engaged in the exterior member and an electric wire holding part which is exposed on an inner circumferential side of the equipment-side seal part to hold the electric wire.

  • Publication number: 20170271857
    Abstract: A branch box (100) includes: a branch portion (21) branching a power path (205A) into at least two branch paths (206A, 207A); a fuse (60) located on at least one of the branch paths; a conductive member (33) connecting the branch portion and the branch path having the fuse; a first housing portion (11) receiving the fuse and closing its opening with a lid portion (81) to define a housing space; and a second housing portion (12) receiving the branch portion. The first housing portion is sealed with a first sealing material (85) filling a gap between the lid portion and the opening and is out of contact with the fuse. The second housing portion is sealed with a second sealing material (86) independent from the first sealing material. The conductive member passes through a partition wall (25) separating the first housing portion and the second housing portion.

  • Patent number: 9472893
    Abstract: A connector including a housing which formed with a work opening in an outer surface on a side of an outer corner of the L-like bent shape of the housing, further includes a lid attached to the work opening, a fixed terminal configured to be inserted through the external-wire leading portion and accommodated in the housing, and a flexible conductor connecting the terminal to one end of the fixed terminal and including an external-force absorbing portion sagging between both ends of the flexible conductor. The other end of the fixed terminal is connected to a conductor of the external wire, and an intermediate portion of the fixed terminal is fixed to the housing and elongates along the axis of the external wire.
