Coaxial cable shielding terminal
View Patent ↗A coaxial cable shielding terminal for electrically connected at an end of a coaxial wire, comprising a press-clamping portion including a pair of braid press-fastening portions which extend in a generally upstanding manner respectively from opposite side edges of a terminal bottom plate portion, and can be press-connected to a braid of the coaxial wire by press-fastening, and a connection piece which is inserted at its distal end portion between an inner insulating layer of the coaxial cable and the braid from the end side of the coaxial cable so that the braid can be held between the connection piece and distal end portions of the braid press-fastening portions. A retaining portion is projected from an inner surface of each of the braid press-fastening portions so as to block the connection piece to be displaced toward a conductor core of the coaxial cable during the press-fastening operation.
1. A shielding terminal for a coaxial cable, comprising:
a press-clamping portion for being press-connected to an end portion of a coaxial cable, wherein said shielding terminal is electrically connectable to a braid of said coaxial cable exposed at the end portion thereof;
wherein said press-clamping portion includes a pair of braid press-fastening portions extending in a generally upstanding manner respectively from opposite side edges of a terminal bottom plate portion, and being press-connected to said braid by press-fastening,
a connection piece inserted at a distal end portion thereof between an inner insulating layer of said coaxial cable and said braid from an end side of said coaxial cable so that said braid is held between said connection piece and distal end portions of said braid press-fastening portions, and
a retaining portion projecting from an inner surface of at least one of said braid press-fastening portions to block the connection piece from being displaced toward a conductor core of said coaxial cable during the press-fastening operation.
2. A coaxial cable shielding terminal according to claim 1 , wherein a plurality of said retaining portions are formed on the inner surface of said one braid press-fastening portion so as to be arranged generally in a longitudinal direction of said connection piece.
3. A coaxial cable shielding terminal according to claim 1 , wherein at least one retaining portion is formed on each of the pair of the braid press-fastening portions so that the retaining portion on one braid press-fastening portion is opposed to the corresponding retaining portion on another braid press-fastening portion.
4. A coaxial cable shielding terminal according to claim 1 , wherein the retaining portion is formed by pressing forming.
