Abstract
The present disclosure relates to a flat electric wire and a method for manufacturing a flat electric wire. The flat electric wire includes a plurality of conductors arranged in parallel in a width direction and having substantially a same cross-sectional area with each other, resin films provided on one side and the other side of the plurality of conductors in a thickness direction orthogonal to the width direction, and an insulator covering the plurality of conductors together with the resin films. Each of the resin films have a Young's modulus of 2 GPa or more and a film thickness of 200 μm or more.
Claims5
A flat electric wire comprising:
- a plurality of conductors arranged in parallel in a width direction and having substantially a same cross-sectional area with each other;
- resin films provided on one side and the other side of the plurality of conductors in a thickness direction orthogonal to the width direction;
- and
- an insulator covering the plurality of conductors together with the resin films,
- wherein each of the resin films have a Young's modulus of 2 GPa or more and a film thickness of 200 μm or more.
A method for manufacturing a flat electric wire including a plurality of conductors arranged in parallel in a width direction and having substantially a same cross-sectional area to each other, and an insulator covering the plurality of conductors, the method comprising:
- arranging resin films on one side and the other side of the plurality of conductors in a thickness direction orthogonal to the width direction, the resin films each having a Young's modulus of 2 GPa or more and a film thickness of 200 μm or more;
- and
- forming the insulator by thermally shrinking an insulating heat shrinkable tube disposed around the plurality of conductors on which the resin films are arranged, or by extrusion coating an insulating resin softened by heating.
