Connection structure and connection method between shield electric wire and shield terminal

A connection method of a shield electric wire, the shield electric wire having braided wires and an outer insulating portion for covering the braided wires, the connection method comprising the steps of:

• causing end portions of the braided wires to be exposed from an end of the outer insulating portion;
• drawing up the exposed end portions to the end of the outer insulating portion to thereby form a rib-like connecting portion;
• and
• connecting the connecting portion to a shield terminal.

A connection method of a shield electric wire, the shield electric wire having an inner insulating portion, braided wires situated on the inner insulating portion, and an outer insulating portion for covering the braided wires, the connection method comprising the steps of:

• providing a second outer insulating portion that is separated from an end of the outer insulating portion and dragged away from the end of the outer insulating portion to expose the braided wires, the second outer insulating portion remaining to exist on the inner insulating portion in a state of its covering ends of the braided wires;
• drawing up the second outer insulating portion to the end of the outer insulating portion and collecting the braided wires exposed between the outer insulating portion and the second outer insulating portion together to the end of the outer insulating portion to thereby form a rib-like connecting portion;
• and
• connecting the connecting portion to a shield terminal.
