Abstract

PURPOSE:To facilitate power line branching from one side of a mainframe by providing an input terminal in direct connection to the output terminal of a breaker. CONSTITUTION:A pair of input terminals 12, 12 are protruded on one side of a rectangular mainframe 1 formed of a synthetic resin compact, and the grounding cable connecting terminal portion 11 is provided thereon. Three branch-connecting harness terminal portions 14 are provided on the other side to harness-connect a three-wire type power line 5 thereto. In the mainframe 1, the input terminals 12, 12 and the grounding cable connecting terminal portion 11 are respectively connected in parallel to the branch-connecting harness terminal portions 14. By inserting the input terminals 12, 12 into the output terminal portion of a breaker 2 via which the power line 4 is connected to the mainframe 1, a branch power line 5 stored in a distribution board together with the breaker 2 and providing harness terminals 50 for the respective branch-connecting harness terminal portions 14 is connected directly to the breaker 2.

Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a wiring branch unit for branching a power line into a plurality of lines.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art When a power supply line 5 connected to a breaker 2 in a distribution board is branched into a plurality of power supply lines 5 having a harness terminal 50, as shown in FIG. It branched using the joint box 10 outside. In the figure, 14 is a harness terminal on the joint box 10 side, 1
Reference numeral 5 is a power supply line connection terminal portion, and 13 is a feed line connection terminal portion.

[0003]

In this case, even if each branch power supply line 5 is used in the vicinity of the breaker, since the joint box 10 provided outside the distribution board is used, it is difficult to arrange the joint box 10. There is.
The present invention has been made in view of the above points, and an object of the present invention is to provide a wiring branch unit that can easily branch a power supply line.

[0004]

The wiring branch unit according to the present invention is provided with a plurality of branch connection harness terminals and is projected from one surface of the input terminal body directly connected to the output terminal portion of the breaker. It has a special feature.

[0005]

According to the present invention, since it can be directly connected to the breaker, it can be housed together with the breaker in the distribution board.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS The present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the illustrated embodiments. In FIG. 1, reference numeral 1 denotes a rectangular body formed of a synthetic resin molding, and one side surface of which has a pair of input terminals. 12 and 12 are provided in a protruding manner, and a ground wire connection terminal portion 11 is provided. On the other side surface, three branch connection harness terminal portions 14 capable of connecting the three-wire type power supply line 5 to the harness are provided in the illustrated example. The branch connection harness terminal portion 14 has a lock mechanism, and the ground wire connection terminal portion 11 has a quick connection terminal structure in which connection is completed only by inserting a bare wire. In 1 above, the input terminal 1
The branch connection harness terminals 14 are connected in parallel to the terminals 2 and 12 and the installation line connection terminal portion 11. Reference numeral 18 in the drawing denotes a release button used when releasing the connection in the ground line connection terminal portion 11.

The wiring branch unit is provided with a power supply line 4
To the output terminal of the breaker 2 connected to the input terminal 12,
2 is directly connected to the breaker 2 as shown in FIG.
As shown in FIG. 2, the harness terminal 50 is housed in the distribution board 3 together with the breaker 2 and is connected to the harness terminals 14 for each branch connection.
Is connected to the branch power supply line 5. Reference numeral 40 in the figure denotes a ground wire in the power supply line 4, which is connected to the ground wire connection terminal portion 11. In the figure, 6 is an outlet.

In the embodiment shown in FIG. 4, one of the three branch connection harness terminals 14 in the above embodiment is a three-wire type quick connection type connection terminal portion 13.

[0009]

As described above, according to the present invention, since the input terminal directly connected to the breaker is provided, it can be installed together with the breaker in the distribution board, and is branched outside the distribution board. It is not necessary to install a joint box as in the case of, and the power supply line can be easily branched using the harness terminal when the location where the branch power supply line is used is near the distribution board.
