Problems solved by technology

That is, the vertical and horizontal dimensions of the connector fitting portion accumulate dimensional errors in the corresponding parts of both housing members, so the dimensional accuracy of the connector fitting portion is likely to decrease, and it is easy to cause a fitting failure of the mating target external connector.
In particular, the housing is molded from synthetic resin materials, so dimensional fluctuations occur due to dimensional errors in the molding die or thermal shrinkage after molding, etc.

Embodiment approach

[0060] The present invention is not limited to the above-mentioned embodiments, and may be deformed or expanded as follows.

[0061] Alternatively, three walls forming the female-side connector portion 12 may be provided on the cover 22 side, and the remaining one wall may be formed on the main body 21 side.

[0062] Strictly speaking, the three walls forming the female connector part 12 do not have to be on the side of the main body 21 and the cover 22, as long as there is no dimensional error of the molding die or thermal shrinkage after molding, and the female connector part 12 can be improved. For the effect of the dimensional accuracy, part of the three walls can be formed on the other side due to the parting of the molding die of the housing 2 or the like.

[0063] The configuration in which the rotational force of the electric motor 3 is transmitted to the locking shaft 6 is not limited to the worm 4 and the worm wheel 5, and various gear mechanisms or link mechanisms a...

Abstract

The invention provides a lid lock apparatus for a vehicle, which improves the reliability of an engagement with an external connector. An electric motor (3) provided within the lid lock apparatus (1) is operated to rotate a worm wheel (5) via a worm (4) so that a lock shaft (6) advances and retreats relatively to a housing (2) and makes the lid engage and disengage from the vehicle main body. Through the engagement of the main body (21) and the cover (2), a female connector portion (12) is formed on the housing (2) of the lid lock apparatus (1) and is connected to an external connector for supplying electric power to the electric motor (2). The female connector portion (12) is surrounded by connector lateral walls (218a and 218b) and connector longitudinal walls (218c, 224) which are face to face. The connector lateral walls (218a and 218b) and the connector longitudinal walls (218c) are formed on the main body (21) and the connector longitudinal wall (224) is formed on the cover (22).

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a lid lock device for a vehicle that locks a lid provided on a vehicle body in a closed state. Background technique [0002] As a prior art, there is a vehicle lid lock device in which a shaft member protrudes from a casing by elastic force and engages with a lid provided on a vehicle body to lock the lid in a closed state (see Patent Document 1). In such a vehicle lid lock device, by operating the electric motor inside the case and rotating the worm wheel, the shaft member can be moved against the elastic force, and the engagement with the lid can be released to open the lid. [0003] In the above-mentioned prior art, a connector fitting portion is formed on the housing, and a connection to an electric motor is provided inside the connector fitting portion. The connector terminal is mounted on the terminal mounting portion of the connector fitting portion. The external connector is connected to the connector fitting...
