Abstract
A terminal-equipped wire configured by crimping a pair of barrel pieces provided on a terminal to an external sheath of a wire, the external sheath being provided on an outer circumferential surface of a core wire. The pair of barrel pieces are wrapped around the external sheath into a polygonal tube shape that has a plurality of corner portions in a circumferential direction of the external sheath, leading end edges of the pair of barrel pieces are arranged on opposite sides of at least one corner portion out of the plurality of corner portions.
Claims4
A terminal-equipped wire configured by crimping a pair of barrel pieces provided on a terminal to an external sheath of a wire, the external sheath being provided on an outer circumferential surface of a core wire,
- the pair of barrel pieces are wrapped around the external sheath into a polygonal tube shape that has a plurality of corner portions in a circumferential direction of the external sheath, and
- leading end edges of the pair of barrel pieces are arranged on opposite sides of at least one corner portion out of the plurality of corner portions,
- wherein mutually matching abutting edge portions of the pair of barrel pieces have an uneven shape on a leading end side in an extension direction of the pair of barrel pieces,
- wherein an outer barrel is crimped to the pair of barrel pieces from the outside,
- wherein a pair of leading end edges of the outer barrel are arranged on opposite sides of at least one corner portion out of the plurality of the corner portions, and
- wherein the abutting edge portions of the pair of barrel pieces and the pair of leading end edges of the outer barrel are arranged at different positions in a circumferential direction of the wire.
