Abstract
The invention provides a terminal chain so that a terminal can be connected with a signal conductor only by being press-formed by dies. A rectangular piece (12) is jointed to an end part extending in the longitudinal direction of a carrier (11). The rectangular piece (12) is placed in dies (40, 50) for press-forming. A signal conductor W1 exposed at one end of a wire W is placed on the rectangular piece (12). The rectangular piece (12) is press-formed by the dies (40, 50) to enclose the signal conductor W1. A terminal (20) which is connected with the signal conductor W1 is formed. The contacting position of the carrier (11) and the terminal (20) is disconnected.
Claims5
A manufacturing method for manufacturing a terminal connected with a wire by sliding a flat metal plate to be press-formed by die blocks, the method comprising:
- press-disconnecting the flat metal plate to form a rectangular piece that is connected to a carrier that extends in a longitudinal direction;
- and
- press-forming the rectangular piece to enclose a signal conductor that is exposed at one end of a wire, so that the signal connector is connected to the rectangular piece.
