Abstract

An object of the invention is to provide a press bond terminal capable of easily ensuring compatibility between electrical connection performance and mechanical connection performance in the case of connecting a terminal to an electric wire. In a press bond terminal ( 10 ) having a conductor press bond part ( 13 ) connected by being pressed and bonded to a distal end of a conductor (Wa) of an electric wire, the conductor press bond part ( 13 ) being formed in substantially a U-shaped cross section by a base plate ( 13 A) and a pair of conductor crimp pieces ( 13 B) which is extended upward from both right and left lateral edges of the base plate ( 13 A) and is crimped so as to wrap the conductor (Wa) disposed on an inner surface of the base plate ( 13 A), an inner surface of the base plate ( 13 A) of the conductor press bond part ( 13 ) is provided with a projecting bar ( 22 ).

Claims (8)

1. A press bond terminal comprising:

a conductor press bond part connected by being pressed and bonded to a distal end of a conductor of an electric wire, the conductor press bond part being formed in substantially a U-shaped cross section by a base plate and a pair of conductor crimp pieces which is extended upward from both right and left lateral edges of the base plate and is crimped so as to wrap the conductor disposed on an inner surface of the base plate, wherein an inner surface of the base plate of the conductor press bond part is provided with a projection; and

plural serrations located on the press bond part, wherein the plural serrations do not contact the projection, and

the projection is formed in a longitudinal direction of the conductor.

2. The press bond terminal according to claim 1 , wherein the projection is preferably formed as a projecting bar continuous in the longitudinal direction of the conductor.

3. The press bond terminal according to claim 1 , wherein the projection is preferably formed as plural projections.

4. The press bond terminal according to claim 1 , wherein the plural serrations are located on an inner surface of the conductor press bond part.

5. The press bond terminal of claim 1 , wherein the plural serrations are located on either side of and perpendicular to the projection on the press bond part.
