Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
Provided is an electrical junction box 10 including: a box body 12 ; an electrical component block attachment portion 36 that is open to an upper side of the box body 12 and extends in an upper-lower direction of the box body 12 ; and a plurality of electrical component blocks 38 a and 38 b attached in multiple stages in the upper-lower direction to the electrical component block attachment portion 36 . A partitioning portion 44 is arranged between a lower face 42 of the electrical component block 38 a arranged on an upper side in the upper-lower direction and an upper face 81 of the electrical component block 38 b arranged on the lower side thereof, with gaps 82 a and 82 b being interposed between the partitioning portion and the faces. An electric wire 50 extending from the lower face 42 of the upper electrical component block 38 a is held on the partitioning portion 44.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1. An electrical junction box comprising: a box body; an electrical component block attachment portion that is open to an upper side of the box body and extends in an upper-lower direction of the box body; and a plurality of electrical component blocks attached in multiple stages in the upper-lower direction to the electrical component block attachment portion, wherein a partitioning portion is arranged between a lower face of the electrical component block arranged on an upper side in the upper-lower direction and an upper face of the electrical component block arranged on a lower side, with a gap being interposed between the partitioning portion and each of the faces, an electric wire extending from the lower face of the upper electrical component block is held on the partitioning portion, the upper electrical component block includes a block main body in which an electrical component and the electric wire are accommodated and held, and a lower cover that covers the lower face of the block main body from below, and the partitioning portion is constituted by the lower cover, the electrical component block attachment portion is integrally provided in the box body, and an electrical component can be attached to the lower electrical component block attached to the box body in a state in which the upper electrical component block is not attached to the electrical component block attachment portion. 2. The electrical junction box according to claim 1 , wherein the lower cover has an electric wire outlet port that is open at a position that is closer to an outer side than a peripheral edge of the lower electrical component block is, and the electric wire extending from the electric wire outlet port is guided to a gap that is formed closer to an inner side of the box body than a peripheral wall portion of the lower electrical component block is. 3. The electrical junction box according to claim 2 , wherein part of a peripheral wall portion of the electrical component block attachment portion is provided with a cut-out portion, and the electric wire extending from the electric wire outlet port and through the cut-out portion is guided to the gap. 4. The electrical junction box according to claim 1 , wherein a lower face of the lower cover is an inclined face that is inclined downward to the electric wire outlet port.
