<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To improve security in a plug lock structure. <P>SOLUTION: When a power supply plug 10 is inserted into an inlet 31 and an engaged pawl 16 is engaged with an engaging portion 21, a lock pin 55 is positioned on one side of the engaged pawl 16, which is the opposite side of the engaging portion 21. This position allows the lock pin 55 to restrict the movement of the engaged pawl 16 toward the opposite side of the engaging portion 21, in other words, the direction that the engagement is released. In this structure, a locking state, in which the removal of the power supply plug 10 from the inlet 31 is restricted, is automatically created by just inserting the power supply plug 10 into the inlet 31. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2012,JPO&INPIT |
