Abstract

An assembling structure of an electronic component includes an electronic component including a component main body having a plurality of lead terminals protruding from side surfaces of the component main body, and a housing member in which the electronic component is inserted and accommodated and which holds a plurality of terminal fittings connected to the lead terminals. Each lead terminal includes a base end protruding from at least one side surface of the component main body and a connecting portion which is connected to the base end and which droops along the side surface, and the plurality of lead terminals are provided to be protruded from at least one side surface of the component main body in the width direction of the side surface. The side surface of the component main body is provided with an insulating member.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1 . An assembling structure of an electronic component, comprising:
an electronic component configured to include a component main body having a rectangular parallelepiped shape and a plurality of lead terminals protruding from side surfaces of the component main body; and a housing member in which the electronic component is inserted and accommodated and configured to hold a plurality of terminal fittings connected to the lead terminals, wherein each lead terminal includes a base end protruding from at least one side surface of the component main body and a connecting portion which is connected to the base end and which droops along the side surface, and the plurality of lead terminals are provided to be protruded from at least one side surface of the component main body in the width direction of the side surface, the housing member includes a first housing chamber which guides and accommodates the component main body and a second housing chamber which accommodates and holds the terminal fittings connected to the connecting portion, the first housing chamber is formed to be surrounded with wall portions rising upright from a bottom wall from four directions, and the second housing chamber is formed outside the wall portions of the first housing chamber, the side surface of the component main body, on which the plurality of lead terminals is provided, is provided with an insulating member protruding along at least one side surface of opposite side surfaces of the neighboring base ends, and the insulating member is formed in the thickness direction of the side surface of the base ends, and the electronic component, the terminal fittings, and the housing member are mutually assembled.

2 . The assembling structure of the electronic component according to claim 1 , wherein
the insulating member is formed so as to surround the base ends.

3 . The assembling structure of the electronic component according to claim 1 , wherein
the second housing chamber is provided with an insulating partition wall which partitions the opposite side surfaces of the neighboring lead terminals.

4 . The assembling structure of the electronic component according to claim 2 , wherein
the second housing chamber is provided with an insulating partition wall which partitions the opposite side surfaces of the neighboring lead terminals.

5 . The assembling structure of the electronic component according to claim 1 , wherein
an insertion opening of the housing member into which the electronic component is inserted is covered with a cover member, and the cover member is detachably formed in the housing member.

6 . The assembling structure of the electronic component according to claim 2 , wherein
an insertion opening of the housing member into which the electronic component is inserted is covered with a cover member, and the cover member is detachably formed in the housing member.

7 . The assembling structure of the electronic component according to claim 3 , wherein
an insertion opening of the housing member into which the electronic component is inserted is covered with a cover member, and the cover member is detachably formed in the housing member.

8 . An electrical junction box comprising:
the assembling structure of the electronic component according to claim 1 .

9 . An electrical junction box comprising:
the assembling structure of the electronic component according to claim 2 .

10 . An electrical junction box comprising:
the assembling structure of the electronic component according to claim 3 .

11 . An electrical junction box comprising:
the assembling structure of the electronic component according to claim 5 .

12 . An electronic component comprising:
a component main body having a rectangular parallelepiped shape; and a plurality of lead terminals protruding from the component main body, wherein each lead terminal includes a base end protruding from at least one side surface of the component main body and a connecting portion which is connected to the base end and which droops along the side surface, and the plurality of lead terminals are provided on at least one side surface of the component main body in the width direction of the side surface, and the side surface of the component main body, on which the plurality of lead terminals is provided, is provided with a pair of plate-like insulating members protruding along opposite side surfaces of the neighboring base ends, and the pair of insulating members is formed in the thickness direction of the side surfaces of the base ends, is further connected to end portions in the thickness direction, and is formed in the width direction along end faces opposite to tips of the connecting portions.
