Abstract
A multi-core cable 1 includes plural shielded electric wires 10 for signal transmission. The plural shielded electric wires 10 are bundled so as to make contact with the adjacent shielded electric wires 10, and sheaths 14 of the plural shielded electric wires 10 are respectively removed at the same position in the length direction, and outer conductors 13 of the plural shielded electric wires 10 at the position at which the sheaths 14 are removed are bundled by a metal wire 30 and the bundled portion is soldered and fastened.
Claims7
A multi-core cable including
- plural shielded electric wires for signal transmission, and
- a ground electric wire made of an insulated electric wire or a shielded electric wire,
- wherein the shielded electric wires are arranged in two circular layers in a cross section perpendicular to a length direction of the cable,
- wherein sheaths of all of the plural shielded electric wires are respectively removed to exposed outer conductors, and a sheath of the ground electric wire is removed to expose a conductor, at the same position in a length direction,
- wherein the exposed outer conductors of the plural shielded electric wires and the exposed conductor of the ground electric wire are bundled by a metal wire, and the bundled portion is soldered and fastened, and
- wherein the ground electric wire is drawn out from the bundled and soldered portion only toward one side.
A multi-core cable including
- plural shielded electric wires for signal transmission,
- wherein the plural electric wires are arranged in two circular layers in a cross section perpendicular to a length direction,
- wherein sheaths of all of the plural shielded electric wires are respectively removed to exposed outer conductors, at the same position in a length direction,
- wherein the exposed outer conductors of the plural shielded electric wires are bundled by a metal wire, and the bundled portion is soldered and fastened,
- wherein a part of the metal wire is covered with an insulating part of an insulating material,
- wherein the exposed outer conductors are wholly bundled by another part of the metal wire than the part covered with the insulating part, and
- wherein the insulating part is arranged in parallel with the sheaths of the plural shielded electric wires exposed from the cable sheath.
