Description

車両用操作装置および自転車Vehicle operating device and bicycle

　本発明は、例えば電動自転車等の車両に取付けられる車両用操作装置、および、車両用操作装置を備えた自転車に関する。 The present invention relates to a vehicle operation device attached to a vehicle such as an electric bicycle, and a bicycle including the vehicle operation device.

　従来、この種の車両用操作装置としては、電動自転車のハンドルに取付けられるものがあり、操作装置には、電源スイッチやアシストモードを切り換えるための切換スイッチ等が設けられている。 Conventionally, as this type of vehicle operating device, there is one that is attached to the handle of an electric bicycle, and the operating device is provided with a power switch, a changeover switch for switching an assist mode, and the like.

　図１４に示すように、車両用操作装置１０１のケース１０２内には、回路基板１０３と、外部のパーソナルコンピュータと接続可能なＵＳＢ端子１０４とが設けられている。ＵＳＢ端子１０４は半田により回路基板１０３に接着され固定されている。 As shown in FIG. 14, a circuit board 103 and a USB terminal 104 that can be connected to an external personal computer are provided in the case 102 of the vehicle operating device 101. The USB terminal 104 is bonded and fixed to the circuit board 103 with solder.

　これによると、ＵＳＢ端子１０４にＵＳＢケーブル１０６の一端部１０６ａを差し込むことにより、ＵＳＢケーブル１０６を介して車両用操作装置１０１をパーソナルコンピュータに接続することができる。 According to this, the vehicle operating device 101 can be connected to the personal computer via the USB cable 106 by inserting the one end 106 a of the USB cable 106 into the USB terminal 104.

　尚、上記のような電動自転車のハンドルに取付けられる車両用操作装置は例えば下記特許文献１に記載されている。 In addition, the operation apparatus for vehicles attached to the handle | steering-wheel of the above electric bicycles is described in the following patent document 1, for example.

　また、ＵＳＢケーブル１０６の一端部１０６ａをＵＳＢ端子１０４に挿入したり、或は、ＵＳＢケーブル１０６の一端部１０６ａをＵＳＢ端子１０４から脱抜する際、挿脱方向の過大な外力ＦがＵＳＢ端子１０４に作用することがある。このような外力Ｆに対する補強として、例えば、図１５に示すように、回路基板１０３に補強部材１０７を取付けることが考えられる。補強部材１０７はＵＳＢケーブル１０６の挿入方向に沿ってＵＳＢ端子１０４の後面に接触しており、ＵＳＢケーブル１０６の一端部１０６ａをＵＳＢ端子１０４に挿入する際、ＵＳＢ端子１０４は、ＵＳＢケーブル１０６の一端部１０６ａから受ける挿入力Ｆに対して、補強部材１０７により支持される。これにより、過大な挿入力ＦがＵＳＢ端子１０４に作用しても、ＵＳＢ端子１０４と回路基板１０３との半田接着部が損傷するのを防止することができる。 In addition, when the one end 106 a of the USB cable 106 is inserted into the USB terminal 104 or when the one end 106 a of the USB cable 106 is removed from the USB terminal 104, an excessive external force F in the insertion / removal direction is applied to the USB terminal 104. May affect As a reinforcement against such an external force F, for example, it is conceivable to attach a reinforcing member 107 to the circuit board 103 as shown in FIG. The reinforcing member 107 is in contact with the rear surface of the USB terminal 104 along the insertion direction of the USB cable 106. When the one end 106 a of the USB cable 106 is inserted into the USB terminal 104, the USB terminal 104 is connected to one end of the USB cable 106. The insertion force F received from the portion 106a is supported by the reinforcing member 107. Thereby, even if an excessive insertion force F acts on the USB terminal 104, it is possible to prevent the solder bonding portion between the USB terminal 104 and the circuit board 103 from being damaged.

　尚、上記のような補強部材１０７を供えた機器については例えば下記特許文献２および特許文献３に記載されている。 In addition, about the apparatus provided with the above reinforcing members 107, it describes in the following patent document 2 and patent document 3, for example.

　しかしながら上記の従来形式では、ＵＳＢケーブル１０６の一端部１０６ａをＵＳＢ端子１０４に対して挿脱する際、ＵＳＢケーブル１０６の一端部１０６ａが斜めに抉られることがあり、このような場合、回路基板１０３の厚さ方向Ａの外力ＦａがＵＳＢ端子１０４に作用することがあり、厚さ方向Ａの外力Ｆａの作用によって、ＵＳＢ端子１０４が回路基板１０３に対して厚さ方向Ａへ無理に変移しようとし、ＵＳＢ端子１０４と回路基板１０３との半田接着部が損傷して、ＵＳＢ端子１０４が回路基板１０３から離脱するといった問題がある。 However, in the above-described conventional format, when the one end portion 106a of the USB cable 106 is inserted into and removed from the USB terminal 104, the one end portion 106a of the USB cable 106 may be bent obliquely. The external force Fa in the thickness direction A may act on the USB terminal 104, and the USB terminal 104 attempts to forcefully shift in the thickness direction A with respect to the circuit board 103 by the action of the external force Fa in the thickness direction A. There is a problem that the solder bonding portion between the USB terminal 104 and the circuit board 103 is damaged, and the USB terminal 104 is detached from the circuit board 103.

　本発明は、回路基板の厚さ方向の過大な外力が内部接続端子に作用しても、内部接続端子が回路基板から離脱するのを防止することができる車両用操作装置および自転車を提供することを目的とする。 The present invention provides a vehicle operating device and a bicycle capable of preventing the internal connection terminal from being detached from the circuit board even when an excessive external force in the thickness direction of the circuit board acts on the internal connection terminal. With the goal.

　上記目的を達成するために、本第１発明における車両用操作装置は、車両に取付けられる操作装置であって、
ケース内に、回路基板と、他の機器と接続可能な内部接続端子とが設けられ、
内部接続端子は回路基板に取付けられ、
回路基板の厚さ方向の外力が内部接続端子に作用した場合、この外力を受けてケース側に逃す保護部材がケース内に設けられているものである。 In order to achieve the above object, an operating device for a vehicle in the first invention is an operating device attached to a vehicle,
In the case, a circuit board and internal connection terminals that can be connected to other devices are provided,
Internal connection terminals are attached to the circuit board,
When an external force in the thickness direction of the circuit board is applied to the internal connection terminal, a protective member that receives the external force and escapes to the case side is provided in the case.

　これによると、他の機器側に接続された相手方の接続端子を、車両用操作装置の内部接続端子に差し込んだり、或は内部接続端子から脱抜する際、回路基板の厚さ方向の過大な外力が内部接続端子に作用すると、この外力は内部接続端子から保護部材を通じてケース側で受けられる。 According to this, when the connection terminal of the other party connected to the other device side is inserted into or removed from the internal connection terminal of the vehicle operating device, the circuit board is excessively thick in the thickness direction. When an external force acts on the internal connection terminal, the external force is received from the internal connection terminal through the protective member on the case side.

　これにより、内部接続端子が回路基板に対して厚さ方向へ無理に変移するのを防止することができ、内部接続端子と回路基板との取付部が損傷するのを防止でき、内部接続端子が回路基板から離脱するのを防止することが可能である。 As a result, the internal connection terminal can be prevented from forcibly shifting in the thickness direction with respect to the circuit board, and the attachment portion between the internal connection terminal and the circuit board can be prevented from being damaged. It is possible to prevent detachment from the circuit board.

　本第２発明における車両用操作装置は、ケースは回路基板の厚さ方向において回路基板と対向する対向部を有し、
内部接続端子は回路基板とケースの対向部との間に配置され、
保護部材は回路基板に取付けられた保護カバーであり、
内部接続端子は回路基板と保護カバーとで周囲を取り囲まれており、

回路基板の厚さ方向の外力が内部接続端子に作用した場合、この外力が内部接続端子から保護カバーの一部を通じてケースの対向部に逃されるものである。 In the vehicle operating device according to the second aspect of the invention, the case has a facing portion that faces the circuit board in the thickness direction of the circuit board,
The internal connection terminal is arranged between the circuit board and the facing part of the case,
The protective member is a protective cover attached to the circuit board,
The internal connection terminal is surrounded by the circuit board and protective cover,
A part of the protective cover is fitted in the gap between the internal connection terminal and the facing part of the case in the thickness direction of the circuit board,
When an external force in the thickness direction of the circuit board acts on the internal connection terminal, the external force is released from the internal connection terminal to a facing portion of the case through a part of the protective cover.

　これによると、回路基板の厚さ方向の過大な外力が内部接続端子に作用すると、この外力は内部接続端子から保護カバーの一部を通じてケース側で受けられる。 According to this, when an excessive external force in the thickness direction of the circuit board acts on the internal connection terminal, this external force is received from the internal connection terminal on the case side through a part of the protective cover.

　これにより、内部接続端子が回路基板に対して厚さ方向へ無理に変移するのを防止することができ、内部接続端子と回路基板との取付部が損傷するのを防止でき、内部接続端子が回路基板から離脱するのを防止することが可能である。 As a result, the internal connection terminal can be prevented from forcibly shifting in the thickness direction with respect to the circuit board, and the attachment portion between the internal connection terminal and the circuit board can be prevented from being damaged. It is possible to prevent detachment from the circuit board.

　本第３発明における車両用操作装置は、ケース内に表示部材が設けられ、
表示部材は回路基板の厚さ方向において回路基板と対向して配置され、
