Abstract
In a connecting structure for an electric wire 1 and a terminal 8 in which an insulative outer skin 5 of the electric wire is mounted to an electric wire cover crimping portion 11 of the terminal 8, and the terminal 8 is connected to the electric wire, wherein the electric wire cover crimping portion 11 is formed with a hole 14, and an opening peripheral edge 14a of the hole 14 is allowed to bite into the insulative outer skin 5.
Claims3
A connecting structure for an electric wire and a terminal, comprising
- an insulative outer skin provided on said electric wire,
- an electric wire cover crimping portion provided on said terminal, and
- a hole formed in said electric wire cover crimping portion, wherein
- when said terminal is connected to said electric wire, said insulative outer skin is mounted to said electric wire cover crimping portion, said electric wire cover crimping portion is swaged and at the same time, an opening peripheral edge a of said hole is allowed to bite into said insulative outer skin.
1 more element
A connecting method for an electric wire and a terminal, wherein
- an electric wire cover crimping portion of said terminal is formed with a hole and then, an insulative outer skin of said electric wire is mounted to said electric wire cover crimping portion, said electric wire cover crimping portion is swaged and at the same time, a projection is allowed to face said hole to project said projection upward toward said insulative outer skin, thereby allowing an opening peripheral edge a of said hole to bite into said insulative outer skin.
A terminal connecting apparatus comprising
- a terminal mount for mounting said terminal having an electric wire cover crimping portion formed with a hole in a state in which said hole faces a projection, and
- a swaging member for swaging said electric wire cover crimping portion of said terminal mounted to said terminal mount into an insulative outer skin of said electric wire, wherein
- said electric wire cover crimping portion is swaged with said insulative outer skin by said swaging member and at the same time, an opening peripheral edge a of said hole is allowed to bite into said insulative outer skin.
