Latest Patents
One of Hotta's latest patents is a waterproof structure for the terminal portion of an electric wire provided on the housing body for electric components. This invention involves an electric wire that is inserted through a through hole formed in a housing body. A first terminal fitting is equipped with a first clamper that clamps a portion of the electric wire situated inside the housing body to establish an electrical connection. Additionally, a second terminal fitting is provided with a second clamper that clamps a portion of the electric wire located outside the housing body. The design includes a grommet made of elastic material, which has a cylindrical shape allowing the electric wire to pass through its inner periphery while its outer periphery fits into the through hole of the housing body. A reinforcing spacer is also included, made of a material with greater hardness than the elastic material of the grommet, ensuring durability and effectiveness.
Another significant patent by Hotta is an electromagnetic wave shielding structure. This invention features electric contact portions that engage with terminals formed for a first holder, while pressing portions are created for a second holder to press terminals against the electric contact portions. The design incorporates a pair of first position regulators that contact the outer walls of the terminals at two points in the widthwise direction, along with a pair of second position regulators that contact the ends of the terminals in the longitudinal direction.
